Make the dragon great again

Chapter 64 Treasure Chests and Enchanting (Please ask for tickets and investment!)

Adrian's guess was correct. Fay had indeed awakened Huang Yulong's talent for finding ores, and sensed a magical ore vein near the dungeon.

To be precise, there is a corundum vein in the deep underground just below the dungeon.

In the world of Adrian's previous life, corundum was a mineral second only to diamond in hardness. Ruby and sapphire belonged to corundum minerals.

In the world of Ella, rubies and sapphires are rare minerals with extremely high magical value, and corundum is also the collective name for this type of magical ore.

"I don't know if the conditions for the formation of corundum veins in this world are the same as those in the previous life..."

Through the dungeon's peripheral monitoring technique as his eyes, Adrian "watched" Fay, who was covered with a layer of earth elemental protection and was constantly drilling deep underground, while thinking about some far-fetched issues.

"Based on the knowledge of chemistry and geography that I returned to my teacher after graduating from high school in my previous life, corundum is generally formed in the high temperature and high pressure conditions in the mantle, but the world of Ella is a flat plane, and there should be no such kind based on crustal movement. The environment is right...

"Hey, what am I thinking? People who seek realism on the scientific side in the fantasy world on the magical side must have something wrong with their brains. This is not a scientific Xiling Empire..."

Thinking about the difference between the two worlds is probably an unavoidable question for every traveler, and Adrian would think about it when he was bored.

Just when Adrian's thoughts diverged, Fay, who had found the corundum mine, sent back a wave of excited thoughts.

"Master, here is something delicious."

Huang Yulong does not feed on corundum, but they like to live in an environment containing magical mineral veins. The so-called "delicious" refers to the magic power dissipated in it. growth is of great benefit.

Adrian's consciousness "looked" through the monitoring technique, and saw that in the granite layer at a depth of about 200 meters directly below the dungeon, there was a group of connected corundum veins exuding strong magic power.

"200 meters below the underground city, plus the depth of the underground city itself, the actual depth of this vein of mine is below a thousand meters."

Adrian's dungeon itself is a magical castle with space attributes. Not counting the extended magic space inside, the original height of the outside is nearly a thousand meters.

"Granite has a certain ability to block magic power, so it's no wonder that this mineral vein has not been discovered... Wait, why is the magic power emanating from this mineral vein so familiar?"

Adrian frowned, and sniffed symbolically, in fact, he let go of his greatly improved magic perception ability at this time.

"Isn't this... the magic power I absorbed from the depths of the earth during the 117 years I was sealed away?"

It was only then that Adrian discovered that the source of the magic power of the earth that he had absorbed was actually this corundum vein.

"...It's no wonder Fay always wants to rub against me. It turns out that it's because I grew up eating the dissipated magic power of gemstone mines, and I have the smell she likes in my body..."

This ore vein is more than a thousand meters from the surface. Although this depth is troublesome for humans, it is not difficult for dragons.

Whether Adrian uses his breath to slowly burn through the rock formation after completing the advanced stage, or let Fay and the two rock-eating dragon beasts who are specialized in digging dig holes directly, they can dig a stable passage in a short time. .

Through the concentration of magic power and the scale of escape, Adrian simply judged the reserves of this vein.

"Even if the purest red and sapphire raw ore is used as a phased reward to support the enthusiasm of adventurers to break through the level, this mine should be able to be used for a long time."

Adrian is very satisfied with this "just right" mine near his lair, but at the same time he can't help but think of a question:
"The location of the dungeon is far away from all major forces, and there are no overly powerful monsters nearby. The empire-level area of ​​the great forest itself is deep, and it also isolates most external threats... And now, a piece of magic mine that I need so coincidentally And so coincidentally appearing so close to the dungeon... Does this have a certain feeling?"

Adrian flicked the dragon's tail a little anxiously, but because of the growth in size, the tail hit the wall all of a sudden, causing a slight vibration.

"Forget it, if it's really arranged, I can't resist now... and this arrangement is very likely to be from a certain proto-dragon back then, that is, the original owner of the godhead who gave me void feedback, and it is even possible He is my father or grandfather."

After the conspiracy theory, Adrian took the initiative to think in a good direction and dispelled his inner anxiety...

Under Adrian's order, Fay, who was reluctant to part with "delicious things", returned to the dungeon with a large piece of raw ore dug out from the vein.

"Hey, I'm a good ore owner. After Glenn and Olin wake up, I'll let them dig a passage to the depths of the ore vein. It doesn't matter if you sleep in it."

Adrian coaxed Fay to let go, and handed over the raw ore she had dug back.

Looking at this piece of corundum raw ore weighing nearly one ton, Adrian, who realized that he really lacked the common sense of adventurers, called Alvarez to the [Hall of Dominion] again.

Alvarez, who happily rushed back to meet him, was shocked when he heard Adrian's plan, and was so shocked that his temporary shape disappeared a bit.

'He even considered the enthusiasm of those inferior biological chess pieces!As expected of Lord Adrian... Wait!This is to increase the number of qualified chess pieces while ensuring the quality of the chess pieces?Could it be that Master Adrian is about to start the next link in his plan to conquer the continent! '

The birth and advancement of a high-level lich cannot be separated from a large number of deaths, and a large number of deaths cannot be separated from a large-scale war. If Lord Adrian is going to start the next link of the conquest plan...

Alvarez seems to have foreseen a future full of war and death, and in this future, as Lord Adrian's capable officer, he will quickly be promoted to a legendary lich or even a higher level!

Adrian always felt that Alvarez seemed to have misunderstood something, but he didn't bother to think about the true thoughts of this lich who he used as a tool man.

"Use this kind of corundum ore as a reward, and put it in some treasure chests, and the treasure chests are placed in some hidden places on the first three floors... Based on your experience, how much corundum and quality are needed to maintain this arrangement for at least ten years?" What needs?"

Although Alvarez was the dungeon master, his purpose was purely to plunder life, and he didn't have much experience in this type of dungeon management model, but at least he had taken down two or three dungeons before his death, and he was also very knowledgeable about ghosts. , so a more complete plan can still be made.

After proposing a plan that Adrian compared with the reserves of corundum mines, he thought it was "unbelievably cheap", in order for Lord Adrian's "conquest plan" to go smoothly, Alvarez boldly put forward a proposal:
"Master Adrian, the rare magic ore alone may not be fatally attractive to those inferior creatures. This subordinate believes that some enchanted equipment is also needed as a reward;

"You know, the enchanting fees of the High Tower forest magician are notoriously high, and Lord Adrian, as a noble ancient dragon, only needs a word of dragon language to make a large number of weapons and equipment be attached with long-lasting magic power !"

Adrian thought about it for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.

When he transferred Edmund's soul to the staff, it could be regarded as a special enchantment in essence, and it was also a very high-end enchantment of the spirit;

If it was changed to general attribute enchantment, put ten ordinary weapons and equipment in front of him, and he would be able to complete all the enchantments with just a sentence of dragon language that took less than a minute.

"Hmm... makes sense, and the cost is controllable, but the question is, where do we have so many weapons and equipment for enchanting?"

Regarding Adrian's question, Alvarez smiled honestly and said:

"In order to cooperate with Lord Adrian's grand plan in the future, for every adventurer who comes to the dungeon, the subordinates will use means to let them keep some equipment. So far, we have accumulated 63 long sword handles and round shields 41 faces, 110 seven pieces of various types of armor, and enchanted weapons..."

Looking at Alvarez, who is so courteous and precious, Adrian's face darkened.

——He finally discovered that the adventurers' desire to break through the level has declined so quickly, perhaps the real reason lies in this lich who doesn't know where to go!
