I became a saint in the game

Chapter 66: Unreliable Player Group
The small talk didn't last long.

After it got dark, everyone talked about the latest happenings and then went back to their homes to recharge their batteries for tomorrow's work in the underground palace.

After Chen Shicheng took away the fruit candy that he wanted to buy on credit based on his relationship with the man, he found a deserted place and took stock of his gains that night.

Of course, the harvest was extremely unsatisfactory. Apart from an incomplete version of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Powers Techniques that Mr. Gray specifically requested, there was only one Golden Light Divine Spell that he was not sure whether he could get.

"Fourth Master, although this Finger to the Earth to Steel has a great reputation, I don't think it's very useful."

After learning the skill casually, Chen Shicheng did not upgrade it and released the "Pointing to the Ground to Turn into Steel" towards the ground not far away.

"."

There is no light or shadow, no sound.

On the surface, there was no visible change in the open space where the skill was performed. He could only know that the skill was indeed effective through the consumption of true energy.

The spicy strips that had been hidden in his arms also poked their heads out at this moment, turned their heads to look at Chen Shicheng who was frowning, then jumped directly to the open space where the skill took effect, and began to dig the soil with its front paws.

When the sharp claws of the spicy strips touched the ground, accompanied by a harsh friction sound, a string of sparks burst out directly, as if it had really turned into steel.

“See, this is quite useful.”

Mr. Gray hovered within the skill range for a circle, and after sensing for a long time, he landed back on Chen Shicheng's shoulder.

"Where is it used?"

Chen Shicheng was racking his brains over the idea, but he had no idea what this skill was used for. Was it just to prevent people who could burrow underground from escaping?

"Your skill is not complete." Gray Fourth Master explained, "If you practice the complete Ground-Turning-Steel skill to a high level, it can not only seal the earth, but also make all earth-based spells and energy hardening within the skill range ineffective."

Chen Shicheng's eyes lit up, and he said with sudden enlightenment, "That is to say, as long as you practice Fingering the Earth into Steel to perfection, you will be immune to damage from the Earth Element, one of the Five Elements, to a certain extent!"

"But your skill is only a fragment, with only the most basic functions left." Gray Fourth Master said with a look of regret, "If you want to unleash the full power of this Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques, it depends on whether you can be lucky enough to complete it."

Complete!

This Chen Shicheng looks familiar!
Even an array like the Immortal-Slaying Array, which was of unknown level and originated from an innate magic weapon, he could comprehend it by smashing his merits, so turning the ground into steel with his finger would certainly be no problem for him.

However, this skill was after all a fragment of the Thirty-Six Methods of Tiangang, and the 960 merit points he had for emergencies might not be enough, so after thinking for a moment he gave up the idea and planned to try again after the underground palace was reclaimed.

It was already around nine o'clock in the evening. Chen Shicheng returned to the place where he met Shuiguotang and rode his pack ox into the mining area.

Although this place cannot be compared with the Iron Smelting Town, it has developed to a certain scale due to the huge number of miners. It can be said that it is small but complete, with all the necessary things.

What made Chen Shicheng dissatisfied was that there was no branch of Juanyun Tower here, only some inns with simple environments.

In order to avoid sleeping on the streets, he could only find a room in an inn with a nice environment in the gathering area after returning the pack ox and taking the deposit, and spend the night there.

This was his first time sleeping in a game, and it felt no different from reality; he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

However, his first time was not very peaceful.
Around five in the morning, the sound of horse hooves could be heard on the street outside, waking up Chen Shicheng and Latiao. They stood in front of the window and looked out with dissatisfaction.

"Are we poking at the players' nest?" On the road outside, more than twenty horses whizzed past, and the people riding on the horses all covered their faces. It was obvious that they were all players.

Chen Shicheng sighed, feeling a little helpless. It was only what time, and they were so impatient to set off for the underground palace.

I know that this is the era of scrolls, but it’s scary that the game still has this scroll.

And these people probably don't know that the underground palace has been reserved by the Logistics Department of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau. No matter how early you go, you can only have a bite of soup.
However, since he was already awake, Chen Shicheng had no plan to take another nap. He asked the waiter to bring him some water. After a simple wash, he went out and headed towards the No. C mine where the underground palace was located.

The mine was not far from this simple gathering place, and it would only take about an hour to walk there. Therefore, Chen Shicheng did not rent a mount, but walked leisurely on foot.

At the same time, he did not forget to release the Ekimaru, letting it follow him high in the sky and guard the surrounding environment from a high position.

An hour's journey was not that far. At most, the road was a little difficult to walk on. Chen Shicheng soon reached his destination.

The scenery on the road became increasingly desolate. After entering the mining area, the vegetation had disappeared, replaced by rugged mountain walls and regular boulders exposed on the surface.

At this time, Chen Shicheng also saw the full picture of the No. C mine through the perspective of Ekuimaru.

Mine No. C is located in the middle of several small hills. Circles of excavation marks extend from the top to an unknown depth underground.

And at the bottom of the flat ground the size of a football field, there is a pool of water, and hundreds of miners are working hard to drain the water.

There were dozens of players standing outside the pool, all of them wearing uniform equipment that tightly blocked the pool. Judging from their organization and discipline in walking, sitting and lying, it was not difficult to guess that this was the logistics department of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau that had booked the entire place.

Compared with these national teams, the players seem to be in a state of chaos.

"Raise the flag for PK, stop when the time is up, accept disciples, and accept mounts!"

"Magic weapon-level equipment, sold at a bargain price of 500 taels of gold, a must-have for pioneering, this shop will never be available again!"

"Dungeon 5 is short of one person. Let's do some violent damage. Those who know thunder magic will be given priority. Monks, get out of here!"

"Girl wants to join the group, she has a soft waist, a beautiful voice and can make cute noises!"

Chen Shicheng stood at the edge of the mine and looked down. He immediately heard the noisy voices of the players, which were varied and varied.

The most bizarre thing is that some players seem to have played too many PC games. They jump up the stairs on the edge of the mine one level at a time, and then jump down again when they reach a certain height, repeating this over and over again without getting tired of it.

"As expected, it is the fourth natural disaster."

Chen Shicheng's eyes twitched as he watched, not knowing whether he should go down and join the team of these players. He always felt that none of these players were reliable.

While he was still complaining in his heart, Mr. Hui Si, who was standing on his shoulder, seemed to have discovered something. He was trying his best to look into the distance and observe the direction of the surrounding mountains. He kept calculating with his little paws, and soon his eyes lit up and he wanted to say something to Chen Shicheng.

But before it could speak, a woman's voice came from behind Chen Shicheng, making it hold back its words.

"Oh, that's good, you're here early, young man."
