Act 47 Silver Mine (8) (Third, ask for support, no one will die)
"Who the **** is that guy?"
After Brando left, the teenagers were whispering. The first to talk about is Maher. In fact, since last night, he has always been opposed to their contact with the guy from unknown sources. Since Brando has found out the location of this Cold Iron Ore/Mine vein for them, but also made a lot of money with them After this transaction, -- he also had to admit that dealing with this guy is still a bit good.
But compared to him, Joca, who was the first to deal with Brando, was a bit worried. The 13,000 Tor was not a small sum of money. He always felt that this matter was a bit unreliable, and the money was too easy.
He couldn't help but look back at Gwen. This weak boy is the most knowledgeable of them, and not only that, Gwen will also be Magic.
Every time they are injured under the mine or fighting with others, Gwen will treat them with spell. Although there is no legendary spell that can heal wounds in one fell swoop, it is at least more effective than herbal medicine.
That's it. In fact, Gwen has long been the leader of this group of people, but Maher has been somewhat unconvinced. However, Joca knows that Maher is just because it was pulled down from the position of the boss, and its face is a bit unstoppable.
“It's nothing.” Gwen shook his head: "Keep on digging, things here have nothing to do with us."
He was saying this, but he heard an exclamation from the pit.
That's the direction of one of their companions. Everyone's heart is tight. Stop and look over there. There are many mysterious myths under the dark pit. Although no one has been there before, they are willing to encounter any accident in such a place.
But they saw the companion running out in panic.
"Come here," the boy shouted hastily.
"What's wrong?" Gwen asked.
"Gwen, you know when you come here, I, I don't know what this is --"
Everyone is a moment, Gwen exchanged a wink with others around him, and then everyone simultaneously leaned over. But they just walked by and stopped.
I saw a dark blue vein behind it, which was obviously the place where the boy was mining before, and a silver edge was exposed behind the fractured rock formation.
That's definitely not a rock, it won't be any ore, it's like some kind of man-made object.
The young man said with agitation: "Look at this." He picked up the pickaxe and showed it to others, and saw that the tip already of the pickaxe was cut off by simultaneously, and the incision was smooth as a mirror.
"This thing made it?" Gwen frowned, because he didn't know what it was.
The boy nodded.
"That is a sword, so sharp!" Maher said immediately: "I have heard people say that there are residents in the underground world under our feet, that must be their weapon!"
"Maher, how did the inhabitants of the underground world come to this place?" Someone offered a different view.
"It's entirely possible, didn't the monster below come up?"
"Maher, you idiot, that's because the worker dug the following passage." This time, even the Joca couldn't hear it: "But there is no passage at all before we dig, let alone this one The sword is buried in the rock formation! "
At least he agrees with Maher's statement about swords.
Maher is preparing to refute, but Gwen interrupts them: "Don't be noisy, let's dig it out and see."
"Dig it out?" The young girl was a little puzzled: "This thing is not useful to us, Gwen, I'm a little disturbed, let it stay here."
The boy hesitated, but he was always curious when he saw the glittering silver in the rock formation. He thought that Maher might be right, it was something left by the residents of the underground world, but he glanced at the severed pickaxe -- sword, which must be valuable outside.
"Dig!" he said.
Everyone nodded, and the young man's strong curiosity eventually overcame the fear of the unknown.
...
But when Gwen, Maher and Joca started to excavate the weird ‘weapon' buried deep in the ground, there was a large-scale commotion in the entire mining area.
A terrible rumor is circulating among miners. Legend has it that a monster was found in the mining area on the lower floors. The more this news came through, in the end the supervisors had to organize a team of soldiers to go deep into the mine to investigate what happened.
But these people never came back --
Within half an hour, a written report already was placed on the desk of Aokins. This energetic youngster -- in his thirties, of course, according to Vaunde's algorithm --, for the first time, things started to get a bit tricky.
Aokins can come to this mine to work for Count of Radnor. On the one hand, it is valued by the latter, but on the other hand, it is because of all aspects of the relationship, especially Mrs. Count of Radnor, who plays a great role in -- as Denel Count The youngster of his wife's family and nephew, he took a ride to come here, only to enter the Adviser group of the Lord Count after his term.
Aokins knows that this mine is highly valued by Count of Radnor. Those who can successfully gain the trust of the latter here will eventually be Lord Count's henchmen. Therefore, he is full of enthusiasm for this appointment, and can even be said to be proud. To this place.
Everything looks so systematic until this morning.
This report woke him up from the dream of one's own. It was reported that someone had witnessed a giant spider -- in a few layers below the pit. Of course, a normal spider will not grow larger than a human head. It must be monster.
Aokins suddenly sweated. Of course, this mine happened more than ten years ago. Of course, he knew that if the workers once again pierced the passage to Gorgon Ravine, he could hardly imagine how serious the situation would be.
This youngster felt uneasy all of a sudden. He repeatedly confirmed the situation in the mining area, but the news was worse than one. After a team of soldiers disappeared in the pit below, Aokins knew that he was bad. Already.
He knows that one's own's ability -- is actually incapable. He had originally decided to come here to mingle a relatively leisurely position that was enough to attract the attention of Count of Radnor. He did not expect that his luck was so bad that he encountered the worst situation.
Aokins was at a loss, almost sitting paralyzed on the position of one's own, and repeatedly thought in his heart that if he lost this mine, Count of Radnor would unload himself by eight pieces.
And Curran saw a scene like Correct when pushing the door open --
This Sword Master, who entered Gold-level Domain already 30 years ago and is also one of the most powerful confidants of Count of Radnor, saw youngster in a desperate state. -- Although he knew the other party had no ability, he was a guy who came up the back door. , But still could not help but scorn.
He thought about the other party's incompetence, but he didn't expect that he could not help the wall.
He coughed before calling Aokins out of the state of the flying spirit. Aokins The eyes of grey light up at the sight of Curran by the door.
Of course, he knows this elderly executive deputy, Captain, and the highest military chief of the mining area. The other side is different from him. As early as the year of the hoarfrost, already was the right hand of Count of Radnor. The other side came here to take charge of the daily work of the mining area Of course, he will not be gold-plated like him, but is fully trusted by Lord Count.
Aokins Although secretly scolded more than once this old man who doesn't give him a good look on weekdays is a 'damn old guy', but at least knows that he must show some respect on the surface, let alone at this moment, The opponent is probably his savior.
He shouted like a drowning man grabbed the last straw: "Mr. Curran, you are here, now we're in trouble!"
"Why is it so much trouble?" Curran, with white hair, said a little scornfully.
But Aokins didn't dare to care so much at this time, and hurriedly explained the situation in detail. However, Curran actually knew already before he came here. In fact, the old man scolded him in his heart. The other **** **** first suppressed the news and didn't let him know until things couldn't be controlled. He was called to --. If he knew the truth earlier, at least his team of soldiers would not be killed for nothing.
So Curran is very upset at the moment, but the upset is unhappy. He also knows that this matter is of great importance and can only suppress this dissatisfaction and ask coldly:
“Oh, so what does Master *** plan to do? "
Aokins is a stubborn. Of course, he knows that Curran is not happy to take the opportunity to find one's own. Of course, he can't do it well. He knows it. I can only compensate with a smiley face and say: "This ... I don't know the following situation, but I worry that the miners will be ***, I plan to send the guard team to maintain order ..."
He saw the old man's increasingly somber face and swallowed spitting: "That, at least some hands are needed ..."
Curran coldly hummed to interrupt him.
"Shit idea, do you send the guard team, don't miners know that something must be wrong below? They will only mess up faster. There are thousands of miners in this mining area, and you want to maintain it with less than 100 people Order, official, do you think too much? "
Aokins's face is almost not counted, but fortunately he is thick-skinned and replied, "What should I do?"
"I'll take a look," Curran wiped the one's own hilt: "Although the monster under the big hive is troublesome, it can't keep me. I'll see how serious the following problem is, and then talk about --."
"Okay, okay, okay!" Aokins even said three good words. Although things haven't been resolved yet, Curran can go ahead, and he can be regarded as sighed in relief.
