Chapter 42: Mining Operations
Ye Zhi'an was shocked at this time, because he knew that the people present were all from the City Lord's Mansion, and this executioner was Gong Shan's most trusted subordinate, and this time he let this person execute him because he didn't want an accident to happen.
However, it was Gong Shan who trusted him so much, and he turned against Gong Shan.
Ye Zhi'an was very puzzled, but now was not the time to doubt, more than 100 members of his family were slaughtered, and at this time, he could no longer let Gong Shan fish and meat, live in the future to avenge the dead family!
"Gong Shan, the enemy of the slaughtering family, I Ye Zhi'an will return it a hundred times!"
Without Yan Shicong's blocking of true qi and the restriction of the pipa bone, Ye Zhi'an struck a wild lion's paw around, drove back the soldiers who wanted to come forward to capture him, and then fled at full speed.
Ye Zhi'an is level 54, Gong Shan is level 56, and only Gong Shan can solve Ye Zhi'an on the spot, but now Gong Shan didn't expect it, sitting on the main seat, he couldn't make a move on Ye Zhi'an who fled with all his strength at the first time, and when he wanted to do it, his most trusted subordinate actually came to hurt himself, and when Gong Shan subdued the executioner, Ye Zhi'an had disappeared from view.
Gong Shan didn't chase, with Ye Zhi'an's fatigue, he had the ability to catch up, but he was afraid, he didn't know if he only had one trusted subordinate who was sold by someone, if many people were sold, without him sitting in Yuanfeng City here, the city might be in chaos, and he was also careful that someone had set a trap outside.
Seeing Ye Zhi'an escape, Gong Shan hated it very much, and ordered someone to take the executioner back to the prison, wanting to interrogate who instructed him.
Gong Shan, who has all kinds of ruthless and vicious moves, is confident that the executioner will recruit them all, but he miscalculated, and even though he tried his best, he still couldn't know why the executioner betrayed him, because even the executioner himself didn't know.
"Could it be that he was influenced by the means of the usurping spirit?" Gong Ying took the bottle containing the Demon Gu Pill in his hand and fell into deep thought, as long as he destroyed a person's mind and then let him take the Demon Gu Pill, he would know everything, Gong Ying could not imagine that this medicine would fail in the executioner's body.
Gong Shan shook his head, not knowing why.
It's normal for them not to know, because this executioner was affected by Wei Yang's charisma and became loyal to Wei Yang.
Wei Yang did not give orders to the executioner head-on, but after quietly gaining the executioner's loyalty, he discussed with the people who were watching the excitement and said some indicative words that would not let Ye Zhi'an die.
The application of charm points will not let the other party directly know that Wei Yang is their master, but will only feel extremely trusting of Wei Yang when facing Wei Yang.
When he was in the square, the executioner couldn't notice the changes in himself, and he didn't know who he would be loyal to, so he could only subconsciously obey when he heard Wei Yang's voice, and there were many people present, and the executioner couldn't know who said this instruction, so even if Gong Shan's father and son controlled the executioner's heart, they couldn't know that Wei Yang instructed it.
Wei Yang did not do this unintentionally, but did it specially.
The game "Annihilation" can't be compared with the normal world, and NPCs are not pure NPCs, he doesn't want players to know that they have a problem with NPCs, and he also doesn't want NPCs who are not loyal to him to know, after all, if NPCs know that their hearts will be captured by him, they can't get rid of him to protect themselves?
Of course, Wei Yang as a player will not die, but what if he is trapped in a place called heaven and earth should not be called spiritual?
There will be no NPCs, and there will be no player to save you, and when the time comes, you will be captured by the loyalty of a fart.
Fortunately, he was cautious this time, otherwise if Gong Shan, who had the Demon Gu Pill, knew his peculiarity, he would definitely not let him be so free in the game.
As for why Wei Yang saved Ye Zhi'an, it was not because he was a good person, but only because he was Ye Qiuying's friend.
Today's Ye Zhi'an incident is a big deal in the eyes of the NPCs in Yuanfeng City, but it is not in the eyes of the players.
Wei Yang has been busy upgrading recently, no, all the charm points obtained by killing monsters were given to that executioner, and now he has no charm at all...
Before the last PK, Yin Xiaoxiao identified something good, it was a level 35 top-grade Taiying Sword, and if he wanted to use this weapon, he had to upgrade to level 30.
Level 30 of True Qi is too difficult, and the amount of True Qi consumed is terrifying, much more than Chen Zhengchong and Xiao Chuchu, who are more than 20 levels higher than themselves, Chen Zhengchong and Xiao Chuchu feel that it is because of Wei Yang's physical influence, but unfortunately Yuanfeng City does not have a body measurement array to test the physique, otherwise Wei Yang can try.
People who are often difficult to cultivate or have to spend more resources than others to go further are all extremely gifted people, and Wei Yang, who understands the characteristics of NPCs, also knows this very well, secretly saying that he is really a mediocre cultivation idiot, if he was an NPC in this world, he would have been unable to mix it up a long time ago...
But what Wei Yang didn't know was that he wasn't a cultivator with mediocre talent!
In order to upgrade this time, Wei Yang asked Chen Zhengchong and Xiao Chuchu to hunt monsters frantically, and he himself was fighting among monsters.
There are two high-level NPCs to kill high-level monsters, and Wei Yang is leveling up much faster than the average player.
The reason why he was specially suppressed before was because he had to fight steadily and be proficient in every level of ability, so that he could give full play to the strength he had.
This crazy upgrade is not that he has given up on steady and steady, but since he has cultivated his true qi, compared to the difference after the improvement of his true qi, after the character itself is upgraded, the difference that occurs under the premise that the equipment has not changed is not very large, and he can be proficient in the current strength in the process of upgrading.
Five days later.
Wei Yang came to level 27.
Name: Yang Wei
Class: Warrior
Grade: 27
Health: 9600
Mana: 510
Physical Attack: 1387
Magical Attack: 156
Physical Defense: 620
Magical Defense: 470
Speed: 161
Critical Hit: 10%
Charisma: 5840
Luck: 1%
Judging from the panel alone, Wei Yang is not excessively good, but at the moment it is already considered to be at the upper middle level, especially after refining his body when he was selected, the changes in his body made him upgrade every time, and his attribute bonus was higher than most people, for example, the strength of the character itself, his strength at level 27 was already as much as 354, and the spirit value added by giving up his strength for the sake of mana had already been made up.
The most important thing is that the equipment on his body has not been replaced except for a level 25 high-quality weapon.
"Mines?"
When Wei Yang was hunting monsters near Huyakou, he found the remains of a mine.
Minerals are profiteering wherever they are placed, and it's the same in the game, but there is no mining profession in this game, because mining is not a fine profession, it is a kind of coolie, like the ore vein master who discovers the ore vein, which is a profession that relies on experience, and business, not to say that you can learn by learning, if you want to learn, you can let the ore vein master teach.
A deserted mine was mostly mined, and Wei Yang was just curious at first.
After walking around, Wei Yang carved a few lines of sonorous and powerful words on the mountain wall next to a mining cave, which read: The mine is a good mine, and people are blind, sad and sad.
Apparently, the person who engraved the inscription was saying that there was a good mine under the place, but others did not believe it and felt sad as a result.
Having said that, it doesn't necessarily mean that what this person said is true, after all, there are few capable people in a huge mine, and there must be people who think that there are no good things below before leaving.
"Young man, this place has been beaten out of the mine tunnel, the geology is loose, it is easy to collapse, and it is not suitable to stay."
While Wei Yang was curiously observing, an old man with a white and messy flower on his head walked over with a wine jug dangling.
【Bi Guang】
Age: 65
Level: 3
Identity: Down-and-out miner
Looking at it with an insight technique, all the information of the old man was seen by Wei Yang.
"There are no stones that have fallen in recent years, and there are no traces of collapse in recent years, indicating that the geology of this place is not bad and will not collapse easily." Wei Yang said politely.
"You know geology?" Bi Guang's eyes were drunk, quite surprised.
"I'm a gamer, and I've learned some geography in our world." Wei Yang pointed to the ID on his head and smiled.
"Haha, an outsider understands, it's ironic." Bi Guang sat down against the mountain wall, took a sip of wine and laughed at himself.
"These words were carved by the seniors?" Wei Yang asked, pointing to the words on the mountain wall beside him.
"Oh, how do you tell?" Bi Guang was curious.
"The seniors were unwilling, and they came to this dangerous place alone, so there must be something that they can't let go, which is equivalent to the words on the mountain wall." Wei Yang said bluntly.
Bi Guang nodded without hesitation, confirming what Wei Yang said.
Level 3 NPCs take a lot of risks to come to a place infested by level 30-35 monsters, and they must have a deep attachment to this place, and Wei Yang admires Bi Guang's attitude.
"I feel that my predecessor is a credible person, if I invest in the development of this mine, I wonder if my predecessor can help?" Wei Yang said.
As soon as these words came out, Bi Guang, who was drinking, paused, and then shook his head and smiled bitterly.
As a player, it is normal for NPCs to be surprised by the fact that they have opened a mine, and Wei Yang is not discouraged, and chats with Bi Guang about his determination to open a mine.
Bi Guang thought Wei Yang was joking at first, but after some conversation, he knew that the young man was serious.
Bi Guang wants to open a mine to prove that he is right, but because of the limited strength of one person, this time he came here to decide to die with this mine, and now there are people who support him, why not try?
At this point, Wei Yang applied a charm value to Bi Guang, and only 72 charm points made Bi Guang loyal to him.
After gaining Bi Guang's loyalty, Wei Yang learned from his conversation with Bi Guang that Bi Guang was indeed a very capable ore vein master, but he had been unwilling because he did not know how to communicate, and he had been a miner for most of his life, and was dismissed when he was strong and weak.
"You give me faithfulness, and I give you hope."
"Yes, Wei Shao!"
Wei Yang nodded with satisfaction and took Bi Guang back to Yuanfeng City for placement.
The opening of a mine is different from doing business, and it needs to be approved by the city authorities and pay a certain amount of development funds.
Wei Yang didn't go to get it, but asked Chen Zhengchong and Bi Guang to go over together, after all, if the players of Yuanfeng City knew that they had opened a mine, they had to make trouble every day, how would the mine be opened then?
It is not complicated to handle, it took 500 intermediate spars to get the development rights of that place for 10 years, and the price is not very high, which is due to the fact that the place is recognized as a barren place for minerals, otherwise even the development rights of ordinary mines for 10 years will cost 5000 intermediate spars!
This price may seem high, but considering the income from the minerals, it is not high at all.
Now that the development right is available, it is not difficult to invite people, just invite NPCs outside the city, Wei Yang gives a higher price than other miners, and it will soon be full.
The equipment is almost all iron, which is very cheap, and there is not much cost in terms of food.
Because the mine is in an area infested with level 30-35 demonic beasts, there must be people guarding the mine, and Chen Zhengchong, the nominal boss of the mine, and Xiao Chuchu can protect it.
When everything is ready, it depends on what mines can be dug down there, and how many!
