On the way out of the front hall, Chi Yao clicked on the mission information of the paradise to view.

【Hunter has triggered Side Quest: Mineral Puzzle】

Mission Info: Assist Tonino Harvey in resolving the production of Vein Six.

Mission duration: three days.

Failure Penalty: Tonino Caro Opinion - 100 points

As always, the reincarnation paradise style is introduced, in addition to the rewards and punishments are very clear, the intelligence information of the mission itself is quite brief, and you need to explore and develop it yourself.

Chi Yao took a brief look, the judging criteria for this kind of ordinary side quest are not the same as the main quest, and the difficulty of the task can no longer be judged by the effect of punishment.

Chi Yao had a plan in his heart, and immediately walked towards the mansion where Tonino Harvey was, if he wanted to know the details of the mission, it was naturally most convenient to find the current person in charge of the No. 6 vein.

I have to say that the area of the Tyria Palace is quite large, and with Chi Yao's current agility attributes, it took more than ten minutes to arrive at Tonino Harvey's inverted bowl-shaped mansion.

The shape of this mansion is bizarre, more like a modern style of reinforced concrete buildings, and in the royal palace of Tyria, such strange buildings seem to abound, and each style is completely different, just like the exhibition hall of the opening of the world's fair, each building has its own unique style.

The guards guarding the door saw Ji Yao coming, and immediately opened the door and made a "please" salute gesture.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince has notified me in advance, and when I see you, please go to the reception room and wait."

Ji Yao nodded, didn't say anything, and came to the door of the reception room under the guidance of a guard.

After the guards brought Chi Yao along, they explained the situation and bowed and retired.

"His Royal Highness the eldest prince is handling affairs in the study, please wait here for a while."

Ji Yao walked into the reception room and observed the results in the room, there was a large oval conference table in the middle, and around the conference table were sixteen bar chairs in turn, and the decoration and furniture style were quite modern.

However, this is not strange in the world view of One Piece, after all, there are more bizarre islands and corresponding strange buildings in One Piece.

Bang –

Twenty minutes later, Tonino Harvey opened the door to the reception room and walked in, saying with a slightly apologetic look on his face.

"Second brother, I'm sorry, I was dealing with the affairs given to me by my father just now, and I waited for a long time."

Ji Yao sat on the side and said with a slight smile.

"You didn't have to wait long, the business you just handled was about the No. 6 vein, right?"

Tonino Harvey was a little surprised, he didn't expect Ji Yao to know about it, and immediately reacted.

"How do you know"

"Well—did my father tell you about it?"

Chi Yao nodded, and chose to talk directly, which would be beneficial to the next cooperation between the two.

"Yes, my father also asked me to assist you with the production of vein No. 6. However, I have been adventuring at sea for the past two years, and I don't know much about domestic affairs. ”

"I remember that the No. 6 vein is one of the largest veins in China, right? It's been running very stably, I don't know what's going on? ”

Hearing that Ji Yao was here to help him solve the problem, Tonino Harvey smiled, stepped forward, patted Ji Yao on the shoulder and said.

"Father asked you to help me? Great, if you 'Ember Ash' helps, we might be able to solve the problem! ”

Ji Yao felt a hint of abnormality when Tonino Harvey patted him on the shoulder, the other party had a lot of causal weight on him, and he had good strength, which was very similar to Tonino Carlo's feelings.

Although it is not as strong as King Tonino Caro himself, the strength of the eldest prince in front of him is probably already at the level of the second order.

But Tonino Xavi's own performance is not up to the strength he has, and he doesn't have the habit of exercising or even fighting at all.

Tonino Harvey's strength is quite well concealed by his appearance, and Chi Yao also discovered the anomaly by relying on his special fate connection perception at the moment when the other party came into contact with him.

Removing the possibility that the other party is disguised as a gentle and gentle appearance, then it is highly likely that Tonino Harvey's strength is not his own, but that Tonino Caro has somehow given it.

Ji Yao had some thoughts in his heart, but he still pressed it and said.

"Big brother, that title too. Ahem, let's just talk about what happened to Vein Six? ”

Tonino Harvey's face suddenly fell, and he sighed before continuing.

"Three months ago, at a depth of about 1,000 metres in the deep section of Vein 6, senior miners who had been digging deep said they had heard a strange sound similar to a 'click' sound while working."

"But after exploring, nothing unusual was found."

"We didn't care at the time, we just thought it was the sound of underground ore, but we guessed wrong."

"Two months ago, a monster in the form of red ants began to appear in various areas below 800 meters from the deep section of the No. 6 vein, they are like fiery red ants magnified dozens of times, each red ant is nearly one meter large, and can breathe fire, so we call it fiery red ants."

"These fiery red ants attacked the miners as soon as they appeared, and my father arranged for the army to assist the surviving miners to safely withdraw from the No. 6 ore vein, and the fiery red ants did not choose to pursue, but stayed in the area 800 meters below the ground."

"After some experiments, we got a general understanding of the habits of fire red ants, they will protect the veins and drive out alien creatures, because they will feed on high-quality yuanyang stone above grade 2, so the activity zone will not be higher than the 800-meter-deep vein area."

"The quality of the finite in the veins above 800m is not what they need, which is rare good news, and after the experiment, we found that there is no risk at all in continuing mining above 680m."

"The only problem with the No. 6 vein now is that it is no longer able to continue mining high-quality yuanyangite."

Ji Yao pondered for a while, then asked.

"In other words, the problem with vein number six is actually an ant plague? What is the strength of those flaming ants, and how many are there? ”

Listening to Chi Yao's question, Tonino Harvey smiled bitterly and spoke.

"The individual strength of the fire red ants is very strong, and the pirate level of nearly 100 million berry is in a single one, and the number is about five hundred."

The level of pirates with nearly 100 million berries is probably about the combat power level of "a white night at this stage", and it is still the category of the middle and upper level of the first order.

Chi Yao was a little puzzled, with Tonino Harvey's strength of at least the second order, and Tonino Caro's estimated strength of the third order, even if the number of ant colonies was large, would it not be able to solve this ant plague?

Ji Yao asked, turning the subject to Tonino Caro.

"Father's side, doesn't he say anything?"

Tonino Harvey shook his head and said.

"My father recently looked at the situation of the No. 6 vein, but he just said that he would leave it to me to solve it."

Ji Yao touched his chin and thought.

'Tonino Caro means leave it alone for the time being? Or is it simply a succession test for Tonino Harvey? ’

First update.

Ahem, I'm sorry, I overestimated myself, I did a high-speed train for almost 6 hours today, and it was 9 o'clock when I got home, I haven't coded for too long, and I'm a little rusty (beaten. JPG）。

And my parents urged me several times in the evening to not let me stay up too late, so I changed it first.

Tomorrow I'll be at home with serious codewords!
