Global Mining.

Chapter 11 The Mysterious Magic Stone

Dachun advanced along the waist-deep water in the tunnel, and soon found that there was no way forward.

I had to go to the branch road next to it, and after going around in a circle, I found that 6 places were blocked by collapse points, and finally returned to the elevator.

Dachun was very surprised. Not only did this mining area have no NPCs, it was not even large in scale. The whole connotation was at the collapse point? Will digging through it lead to a hidden scene?

Then go dig. They are all large and medium-sized rocks. You should be able to move them with your bare hands.

Dachun returned to the collapse point. After careful observation, he found a medium-sized stone and moved it. It moved!

But at the moment when the stone was loose, there was a sudden and strange sound above the head!
Da Chun was frightened and took advantage of the situation to hide in the water. Only then did he see that a group of bats had been disturbed and flew away, scattering a pile of dust like moths.

——System prompt: Warning! Your purification skill found the presence of toxic filth. Do you want to purify it?
Damn, it has the atmosphere of a horror movie! It turns out that this is the passive warning effect of the purification skill, so let’s take a look at the active effect.

Purify!
Dachun slammed his hands and poured a wave of water into the dust in the air. A crystal flashed by, and the dust dissipated and settled out of sight.

Um...this feeling is indescribable and a bit awkward. Can I still make money by working as a housekeeper?
Waiting for the bat to fly away, Dachun continued to move the stone, while being nervous and careful.

Suddenly a red light flashed behind him - the system prompted: Warning! Your Purification Skills Discover…

Damn it again!

But the opponent's speed was so fast that Dachun didn't even have time to turn around. In panic, he directly hit the water with his backhand, causing a circle of water waves to rise into the sky - get down! There was a scream, and something was actually blocked by the waves.

Dachun was able to turn around, and then he saw a small shadow hit the wall with a metallic impact, and then fell into the water and struggled. Suddenly it was a silver-white, almost transparent little bat. This ferocious and bloody bat It looks even more poisonous and extraordinary!
Damn it, it’s a rare elite monster that can become invisible!
Any piece of junk material you explode is worth tens of thousands, so hurry up and purify and kill it!

But at this moment, its scream doubled - the system prompts: You seem to understand the Blood Hidden Bat's plea.

Dachun was shocked. This was my communication prompt with the whale. It can also do it! Is it because I have 2 points of wisdom to be able to channel?
Then let it live and see what happens.

While Dachun was on guard, he watched the bat struggle to climb out of the water, shake off the water, slowly flutter into the sky and make a relatively soft squeaking sound.

Do you mean to keep up with it?
Dachun followed him all the way, with lingering fears. Not only can this little thing be invisible, but its appearance is similar to silver or diamond. How high can this kind of physical and magical defense be? Is this really an ordinary rare elite monster? If I hadn't happened to be purified... So this was really a scene specially customized for scavengers?
Finally, the bat came to the water surface of the elevator platform and squeaked, then disappeared invisible.

Don't go, hello?

In the spring, I went into the water and groped under the platform. It was the compacted mud, sand and rocks. Could there be some meaning underneath?
Then dig it!
Although the area was pressed tightly by the lift, it was not difficult to dig it open after being soaked in water. Soon Dachun touched the entire stone surface and continued to dig!

When it was dug out, it turned out to be a magic circle with a hexagonal star on it. There were six fist-sized holes on the hexagonal star!
Damn it, this is the connotation! This must be the space array leading to the hidden scene! But the cavity is empty, so six magic stones must be found to fill it up before the magic circle can be activated?
Where is the magic stone? Dachun immediately thought of six collapse points. Could it be one collapse point at a time? necessary! If it is in a mining area, it may be found by miners, so there is no hidden scene at all.

In short, first use your mobile phone to take a picture of the screen, write down the appearance of the magic circle and the hollow, and then immediately bury the sand back and restore the platform to its original state.

Then, high-end things like the magic circle may not be as simple as finding six stones and filling them in. There may also be requirements for the order of arrangement, so I'd better ask Shirley first. Although she is a trainee who only knows the frost technique and is unlikely to understand the space magic circle, she can find a teacher to learn it. Even if the Black Iron City mage is not good at it, this magic circle seems simple and should not be too complicated.

Dachun then tried to use the badge to contact him: "Shirley, Shirley..."

Shirley replied immediately, her voice still vague: "I... just woke up!"

You must have been woken up by me, right? Dachun expressed his apology: "I'm sorry, mainly because I found a six-pointed star array..."

Shirley immediately said: "Wait for me, I will go outside your prison so that I can speak clearly."

"it is good!"

Then Dachun also took the time to move rocks to the collapse site.

The proficiency of moving rocks is almost constant, but if you find the magic stone, will it skyrocket or even be directly upgraded to the expert level? Just like Lao Jiang became an expert after digging out a rare mithril mine?
If I think about spring, I will be even more excited.

After carefully removing more than a dozen large stones, a small stone with a similar shape and hollow was found stuck in the crevice.

Is it it?
Dachun pulled out hard, pulled out, and his arm sank!
——System prompt: Congratulations! You control the essence of mining and successfully unearth a stone full of strange energy. You are blessed by the stone, your luck is temporarily increased, and your mining skills are promoted to expert level! You get achievement rewards: physical strength +2, weight +2, and the talent skill "Expert Mine Hoe Mastery".

Expert Ore Hoe Mastery: The durability consumption and stamina consumption are reduced when using the Ore Hoe.

——System prompt: Congratulations! You have successfully upgraded a skill to expert level in two days, which is extraordinary and you have received the achievement reward of "Three Days of Blessings for Newcomers": Wisdom +1!
——Mysterious stone: Unidentified, feels like it can bring luck. Weight 20.

……

Damn it! ! !

This stone! ! It’s really easy to pick up an expert for free!
understood! This is because the big guys are using the back door, and I've cut off the big guys' tricks again! If we dig out all six collapse points, wouldn't we give away the master, or even the legendary grandmaster, for nothing? It’s just that the special effects of this expert-level skill are dazzling enough. If the master master can do it, how can he still hang out in the public mining area?

This feeling of ecstasy and fear is really indescribable. I can only face it. It is impossible not to develop it because of fear of revenge.

At this moment, Shirley's voice came, and it was indeed much clearer and louder, with a gasping sound: "I'm coming!"

Dachun was really moved by her. Although the phone call was not easy, her condolences must not be missing: "My dear, don't be too tired."

Shirley was anxious: "Let's get to the point."

Dachun immediately said, "I found another magic stone..." Shirley was both happy and worried, "Magic stones are very expensive. Top-grade magic stones are as valuable as spices! But I don't know space magic. If I learn now, the tuition will be very expensive."

really! Dachun asked hurriedly: "What about the spices?"

"I told Miss Vivian yesterday. She said she needed to contact her to prepare. I'll go over and ask now."

Could it be that he was contacting that fat guy? Dachun was a little panicked: "What did you say?"

"I said we found two pieces of spices on the beach, but we didn't dare bring them into the city, so we buried them on the beach."

This reason is so simple and impeccable!
"Okay! Let's get started. Remember the location."

"remember."

That's good! As for now, the free Grandmaster is right in front of me, so I have to take it even if I don't dare!

No, we should first restore the dozen or so large rocks that were moved back to their original places, just like burying something on the island and erasing footprints, leaving no clues for those who come later.

……

At the top of the Blue Star, in the void planetary belt, a golden floating city shrouded in an energy shield stands tall and overlooks the Blue Star.

This is the Golden Throne, the true core of the Golden Empire.

All roads lead to Rome. Some people are born in Rome, some are born mules and horses, and some are born gods who look down on all living beings.

Michael, the world's number one gamer, is such a god, because the game was developed by their family, and it also provides people all over the world with a way to get rich through mining. This is a gift from God.

Unlike other prominent figures in his family, who are preoccupied with global ambitions, Michael's sole focus is on one thing: immortality and enjoyment. While immortality is difficult to maintain with pharmaceuticals, the most likely path is mind uploading, transforming oneself into a digital lifeform within a computer and achieving immortality. While this remains a theoretical concept, limited to preliminary testing within this game, it has proven a resounding success as a publicity stunt.

The butler came over to report: "Sir, the April Fool's Day operation went very smoothly! However, it did have some impact on the reputation of our products. Fortunately, our media suppressed it in time, and the stock market was not affected."

Michael smiled faintly: "The greatest credibility is to enable players around the world to exchange money. If they can't do it, then they will obey my arrangements. Not everyone can receive God's grace equally."

The butler continued his report: "Most of the partners made good progress on the first day. Mr. Sariel encountered difficulties in capturing the mermaid, but the Shenqian Consortium encountered a major problem. The whale they ordered disappeared!"

Michael was surprised and asked, "Was it taken away by an NPC?"

"Still investigating."

Michael shook his head and sighed, "We've told them the rules of customization. It's easy for players to get big gift packs, and even easier for powerful NPCs. Once this world starts running, we won't be able to intervene, so there's no way to compensate them."

The butler asked again, "But the Shenqian Group has already produced a large number of red names in Black Iron City. Isn't this crossing the line?"

Michael snorted coldly, "We're just letting them know because they're paying us so much. What happens when they get to the bottom of the prison? They won't be able to deal with the Hell Messengers and the Hell Gates. Even if they do get to Hell, they'll still have to start as slave miners. When they think they're demons and can get out, the Church's Fist of Light awaits them. They won't have any choice then."

"But they still monopolized a large number of warrior resources, gaining a huge advantage in seizing the village. This caused dissatisfaction among the Tari Group. They wanted to trigger the Sewer Dog King's siege to offset the influence of the Shenqian Group."

Michael was interested. "Allow us to knock! Prepare more people to study the spread model of rabies, and let the pharmaceutical factory in Oak City prepare in advance."

"Yes, sir. We expect the siege to begin by dinner time."

Michael called his friend Sariel again and said, "I warned you not to design a numerical monster."

Sariel said unhappily, "It's better than that kid Shinzen designing a salted fish and losing it! Don't worry, it's just a matter of consumption."

Michael said solemnly, "You are consuming your privileges! Remember, under this independently operated intelligent rule, our privileges are only formulated according to the specifications of the sages, not for unlimited squandering! Also, the more powerful the gift pack, the more likely it will attract powerful NPCs to intervene in the fight. You must be careful outside the battlefield."

Sariel said impatiently, "I know, I know. That's why I want to get the big gift package to consolidate my privileges. I haven't seen any powerful NPCs yet..."

……

Tari Team Headquarters.

Singh, the team manager who received the first person's approval, contacted Tata War God: "It's time to act. The goal this time is to demonstrate our strength. If you succeed in one go, you alone will be able to offset the might of a thousand warriors of the God's team!"

"clear."

Tata War God, ranked 16th in the world during the public beta, has always been high-profile and boastful, so he was the only high-end player who took the initiative to reveal the hidden profession of the Tamer during the public beta, and claimed that the income from a day of street juggling performances was equal to the income of an ordinary player from mining for a month.

In reality, street performances require paying venue fees to both the black and white NPCs, as well as dog donations to the Animal Protection Association, so the money isn't that much. But the upside is getting to know some black and white NPCs, and through that, getting a clue to the Animal Protection Association's quest: the Sewer Dog King. This powerful hound has lost its warrior master. Tata's goal is to tame this dog king, or to obtain the collar around its neck—the collar's true power can tame a dragon.

In short, this dog-releasing incident was just a rehearsal. If the Dog King was severely injured, he could tame him in time. That would mean he had a boss-level subordinate, and he would have no problem killing the 1000 warriors in the Shenqian team, not to mention robbing the village.

If no one manages to severely injure the Dog King after the siege, he might upgrade and become even stronger. Then, the tight collar would become a noose around the Dog King's ever-growing neck, achieving the same goal.
