Arad's Sword

Chapter 483 Black Crystal Steam Spring

In the next eight hours, the speed of collecting black crystals produced an astonishing but expected increase.

The black crystals worth 34000 black flame coins were directly collected by 17 worker bees, and the average contribution of one worker bee within eight hours was 2000 points, equivalent to 20 black crystal grasses or 5 black crystal flowers.

This is the result when the black crystal tree cannot be harvested.

It's just that, at the same time, these worker bees finally began to show wear and tear.

After all, under each black crystal vine, there is a poisonous snake or other monsters guarding it. If the worker bees want to seize the energy source they rely on for survival, they will naturally face the heaviest counterattack.

Although Midi and the others launched a campaign to clean up all the monsters attached to the black crystal vine, after all, there were only four of them.

Not every monster will be killed in one hit, at least many will escape.

In addition, not every black crystal vine will be found by Midi and others and the surrounding environment will be cleaned up.

Once the fleeing monster returns, the retaliatory attack will become more ruthless.

And if the worker bees directly found a black crystal vine that Midi and the others didn't find at all, they would undoubtedly be directly attacked by the alarmed monsters.

After eight hours, the loss of 17 worker bees has reached nearly 8%, a total of 1 worker bees were destroyed, and one of them was stopped on the way back with a large number of black crystal plants.

If everything is in good condition, maybe the output of Hei Jing can directly break through 40000 points.

"We have explored almost within a radius of hundreds of kilometers. If we explore further, I am afraid that it will waste too much time for the four of us. These worker bees can no longer collect in such a fragile way. In addition, It's almost time to do something about this black crystal tree." Midi made a decision.

Carrying 34000 Black Flame Coins, Midi came to the Dragon Temple again, but compared to the previous two times, this time he seemed much more confident.

"It's a good job to be able to accumulate more than 3 Black Flame Coins in a short period of time." Longshou glanced at Midi, showing a slightly surprised expression, "This time, what do you want to exchange?"

Since the entire low-level exchange list is open, even though Midi only exchanged the "worker bees" and "honey pots" at the beginning, in fact, in the past two days, he has actually been thinking about it every day. What kind of development route should be taken down is the most appropriate.

Now that he came here now, Midi had of course gone through repeated consideration and calculation in his mind. As soon as the light curtain opened in front of him, he immediately selected several new devices without hesitation.

First of all, there is the advanced black crystal harvester "Harvester" worth 10000 Black Flame Coins.

This is a harvester that can harvest Sombra trees.

Even though the price was twenty times more expensive than the worker bees, Midi gritted his teeth and took it down without hesitation.

Because he knows very well that if he wants to occupy a leading position in the resource war, worker bees alone are not enough.

The lowest-level alchemy puppets may be considered cheap and very cost-effective in the early stage, but as the number increases day by day, the damage rate continues to increase, coupled with low efficiency, difficult management, etc., all kinds of problems are enough to make The price advantage is completely meaningless.

Worker bees can only be used in this initial stage. One day in the future, when it develops to a certain extent, Midi will definitely abandon all worker bees.

That's why he exchanged for a "logger" to prepare for future development.

Of course, at this stage, since Midi mainly collects the three scattered plants of black crystal grass, black crystal flower, and black crystal vine, worker bees are still indispensable.

However, while exchanging a large number of worker bees, he also exchanged another kind of alchemy puppet.

The guard puppet "Soldier Bee" worth 1500 Black Flame Coins.

Worker bees and soldier bees complement each other, which can undoubtedly greatly reduce the loss rate, otherwise, after the initial spread, the loss of worker bees alone would be enough for Midi to drink a pot.

The last piece of equipment Midi exchanged was another alchemy puppet "Flying Eye" worth 3000 Black Flame Coins.

This kind of flying eye has the lowest level of "compound eyes" black crystal sensing ability, "worker bee" collection ability and "soldier bee" combat ability. In addition, it also has terrain mapping ability and continuous flight ability at a certain altitude.

It can be said that this is a multifunctional alchemy puppet.

Midi exchanged "flying eyes" for the purpose of letting them replace her to explore a range beyond a hundred kilometers.

Don't look at the area where the three black crystal trees are located at this stage, Midi can't eat it, but Midi can predict that when other teams also enter this black crystal forest and start fighting for resources, this war will definitely It will not expand in such a small range.

If the Black Crystal Forest was only this small, it might not be possible to open even the middle-level exchange list, let alone the 100 million True Dragon Exercise.

Since the setting value of the high-level list is 100 million, just by relying on this number, Midi can imagine that the area of ​​this Sombra Forest will definitely not be smaller than the Gran's Forest next to the Kingdom of Belle Mare. .

Only an area as large as a small country can afford a resource war.

After returning to the base, Midi immediately released all the worker bees, soldier bees, and a few expensive flying eyes, and continued to collect resources non-stop.

At the same time, the five-meter-tall "logger" worth 10000 black flame coins was also released at the same time.

The shape of this logger is like a huge beetle. It swung its tentacles and immediately found the black crystal tree in the center of the base, so it rushed over without hesitation.

The next moment, the body of the beetle opened automatically, and the hard outer shell unfolded like a petal, revealing the extremely complicated internal structure.

At the same time, all kinds of alchemy arms stretched out from the beetle's body, like vines, wrapped around the black crystal tree.

When the whole process was over, instead of cutting down the black crystal tree, the beetle-like "logger" merged with it, forming a huge building nearly ten meters high, like a lighthouse!

At the same time, the number of loggers in the black dragon remnant order in Midi's body also became 0.

Instead, it was a new device.

Sombra Steam Spring, quantity 1.

As the name suggests, this is a spring that emits black crystal steam.

The black crystal tree is not a real tree, but a substance condensed by these steams. Now, while the loggers are transforming the black crystal tree into black crystals, they directly go up to seal the spring.

This is equivalent to saying that, next, every puff of steam ejected from this spring will be collected by Midi and converted into black flame coins.

If the collection mode of "worker bees" is hunting, then there is no doubt that the black crystal steam spring is a mode similar to planting.

There is no need to send collectors, no need to send guards, of course, there will be no consumption during the collection process, and there will be no unknowns or dangers that may be encountered in the wild.

You don't even need to do anything, as long as you stay in this base and next to this black crystal steam spring, you will receive a lot of black flame coins every moment, every minute and every second!
Needless to say, rulers like Midi, even Zaknafein and others, who have never been involved in production, can immediately understand the great benefits of this steam spring after seeing the effect of it.

If you can get enough steam springs, or a large enough steam spring, you will be invincible!
Even Midi didn't expect that there was such a secret hidden under the black crystal tree.

If he had known earlier, he would not have waited for eight hours at all. Once he reached 10000 Black Flame Coins, he would go directly to the Dragon Temple to exchange them.

Looking back now, I am afraid that it is precisely because of the existence of this steam spring that the black crystal plants are extremely dense in this entire area within a radius of tens of kilometers.

However, it is not too late to discover this secret now, and it is definitely possible to plunder it wantonly.

"Go and kill the metal tiger and purple gold scorpion immediately, and then wait until the new income reaches 10000, and immediately exchange for a new 'logger'!" Midi made a decision without hesitation.

Although the two monsters were not easy opponents, and continuous combat would bring certain risks, but at this moment, after seeing the benefits brought by the steam spring, no one opposed Midi at all.

While Midi and the others were gearing up for a big fight, the other three teams in the underground dragon tower were still advancing.

The morale of the two-headed war wolves was very poor. They swept the entire fourth floor, but from the fifth floor to the sixth floor, they got nothing.

Along the way, there are destroyed organs and looted ruins on the way.

However, since the fourth floor is relatively high, these are still within the expectations of the two-headed wolf warriors.

The only thing they hope for now is to save as much energy as possible and reach below the tenth floor as soon as possible.

As for the red-blooded bats, their morale was relatively high. After all, there were no competitors on the fifth and sixth floors, and most of the spoils from these two floors also fell into their pockets.

Simon even made an optimistic prediction. It is very likely that their team is the deepest team, so there are only treasures and no enemies on the road ahead.

But it's a pity that starting from the seventh floor, they fell into the same situation as the two-headed war wolf, and they couldn't see anything except the ruins and exhaust.

As the saying goes, the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Now, the morale of the red blood bat is even lower than that of the two-headed wolf.

Moreover, since it was deduced that the team in front started to explore directly from the seventh floor, the people from the Red Blood Bat could almost conclude that it must be the team of "King of Fighting" Thor.

Following a 67-level powerhouse, no matter who it is, it will not be easy.

Therefore, in addition to being depressed and depressed, most of the people in the Red Blood Bat team became more nervous and restless.

However, if anyone is the most depressed, it is neither the two-headed wolf who is psychologically prepared, nor the red-blooded bat who is too optimistic to be too pessimistic, but the scorpion of death!

"The tenth floor...has already been explored?"

So far, the "King of Fighting" Thor, who has always been calm, finally frowned, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
