The Cannon Fodder in the Global Apocalypse Game lives a leisurely life-Chapter 449: Death Island (1)
Chapter 449: Death Island (1)
Meanwhile in the Town’s Hall, Siri merely glanced at the ores and asked the quarry manager a question, "Is the Landowner inside the mine?"
The Quarry Manager was stunned, "How did you know, Territory Manager. The Landowner is indeed inside one of the quarry! She suddenly volunteered to work."
"Figures. Only she can make the quarry vomit those." Siri appeared unperturbed.
What did the Territory Manager said? Faustus scratched his head.
"Oh..." Siri remembered the quarry incident before. "You probably need to go back. And as promised, I’ll rewards you and the workers with an extra paycheck. The next time the Landowner comes to you should serve her tea and snacks if you want to dig more of the rare ores."
What? How is the serving the Landowner with snacks related to the strange yield?
Siri didn’t know if Faustus had taken the hint or not but it was little of his concern. Experience is still the best teacher.
Faustus returned to the quarry afterwards, his mind still occupied by what the Elf said but he was taken aback when the Intermediate Quarry no. 1 is nowhere to be seen. Only debris of sand, gravel and silver stones were left where the quarry was supposed to be.
"What happened?" He turned to the workers, asking for an explanation. He just only left for a short while.
One of them spoke, "We don’t know what happened. It just suddenly started shaking and the Landowner told us to evacuate. After the danger was over, she built another quarry and gave us each a mysterious white stone and two pieces of ores. She said it was compensation!"
Faustus looked stupefied while gazing at mysterious the white stones.
Before this, he was also a miner and knew a little about ores. Thus, he recognized the mysterious white stones which were used by blacksmith to enhance weapons.
This piece of Mysterious white stones can only be mined in a specific mine which was usually guarded by high-level monster who feeds on it. For it to appear in an intermediate quarry and not just in one or two but more than a dozen is mind-blogging.
"Oh, she also said, she’ll come back next week!" The workers had excited expressions on their faces. Based on the Quarry Managers’ reactions, the ores should be valuable. If they could exchange it for points and saved to purchase permanent residency then that would be wonderful!
They hoped the next week would come fast!
Since it was still early, the miners returned to their work hoping to dig out more thinking it was an auspicious day.
Faustus had also joined but they were bound to be disappointed. In the next hours, the yield had returned to normal and they couldn’t see even one rare ore. The workers buzzed around.
It finally dawn to Faustus what the Elf said.
’Only the Landowner could make the quarry vomit those.’
’Better serve her snacks next time.’
!!!
Faustus was struck by thunder.
....
Chunhua counted the spoils: Out of 571 raw materials, ten percent is ordinary ores like stones, metal ingots, granite, and lime stone.361 of which are elemental ores or crystals, components of magic facilities while the rest is forging materials like adamantine crystals, moonstone mithril and mysterious white stones.
Chunhua handed the forging materials including the ones she also mined last week to the Dwarf and the latter’s hang over was instantly gone.
Dalloram sobered up at the sight of the new forging materials. "What do you want to make with these?"
"Twin Axes..."
...
"Martial Aunt, Good Morning..."
Elga, who had stepped out of the small gate of the Courtyard House, flinched at the familiar voice. She hadn’t sense a presence in her surroundings, making her very surprised.
"O-Old Witch, what wind blew you here? Is it about your kids’ incident?"
"It’s not about that. I clearly requested you to train Little Zhou into a refine and elegant lady but why is she holding a whip? Did you suggest it to her?"
"Oh it’s about that..." Elga had a smile on her face remembering Little Zhou’s increasing mastery of the whip. "I didn’t suggest anything. She picked the weapon on her own and I think she did the right choice because she showed incredible progress for a short time."
She even went toe to toe with Cui and Susu despite she learned fighting much later than them!
"And what’s wrong with the whip! It’s more refine and elegant than the sword. Imagine her twirling around with a whip and swinging it around her enemies with a gentle smile on her face then..." Elga shared her bloody vision making Chunhua stared at the pixie with a blank expression.
?(ο´・д・)??
No matter how she thought of the pixie’s words and replayed it over and over in her mind, she couldn’t discern where the words elegance and refine in them.
However forget it. Clearly, it was her mistake. Their perception about the words ’elegance’ and ’refine’ were vastly different. It may also be Little Zhou’s destiny.
"I haven’t thank you for protecting Little Mantou and the others yet. Is there anything you want?"
Anything I want? Elga’s eyes straightened. "Ho ho. I could ask anything?"
Chunhua nodded.
Elga knew of the Old Witch’s rich inventory. She was not the type to stand on ceremony and waste any opportunity. "Give me weapons! No, scratch that! I want a weapon room build inside my courtyard house!"
A weapon room?
"Okay. You can tell Brother Siri and discuss with Uncle Rioli about it." Chunhua agreed.
"Hooray!" Elga jumped in joy and hugged the Old Witch. "Thank you Old Witch!"
....
The playful nine-tailed fox frolicked in the forest carrying his junior brothers on his back. His agile figure darted between the trees had been restored into its original appearance, leaving no trace of its presence save for the gentlest rustle of the underbrush.
Behind him were Chunhua and Haoran.
Their group headed towards the dungeon. After a few minutes, they arrived.
[Welcome to the Death Island!]
The scenery changed and what lay before their eyes was a mountainous terrain.
But Chunhua’s eyes widened because she felt the abundance of qi!
