Chapter 86 Caves
Seeing Anna's pretty face flush with excitement, Gervais smiled, then turned around and stepped into the space door first.
"Well? Is there such a terrain?"
When Gervais stepped completely into the door of space, he came into the mineral space in an instant. However, when Gervais took a closer look, he was a little confused. Most of the terrain in front of him was rocky cliffs.
There is also a large entrance under the rocky cliff.
"Master Gervais, have you discovered anything?" Because Nashen was relatively close to the door of space, he was the second person to enter the space. When Nashen came to the space, he scanned around and saw Gewei.
Weiss was stunned there, so he asked Gervais.
"It's nothing, I just didn't expect that there is such a cliff-like terrain in space."
Gervais was indeed a little surprised. He thought that the terrain in the space was mostly flat or slightly undulating. Unexpectedly, there were even cliffs, exactly like the real world.
"Haha, Master Gervais, the space opened by the elf bugs is ever-changing, especially the space opened by the golden elf bugs. Your place is quite normal. The terrain is not heavy. It mainly depends on the minerals."
After hearing what Gervais said, Nashen burst out laughing. Although such terrain is not common, it is not rare either. So Nashen walked forward to Gervais and continued: "I once heard Gandalf
The Lord said that there was a noble in the principality who created a space where the golden elf bug was found. It was half sea water and half rocky beach. After searching for a long time, he could not find the minerals. The noble was so angry that he almost lost the golden elf bug.
The fairy bugs were thrown into the sea. This incident became the joke of many nobles. Fortunately, the noble later was also quite smart. He was located inland and actually thought of using seawater to boil sea salt and sell it, and he made a small profit.
Quite a bit, so we recovered the losses."
"Haha, there is such a thing, that noble is really unlucky!"
Gervais also burst out laughing after listening to the second half of Na Shen's words. An ordinary green elf bug costs at least a few dozen gold coins. The price of a golden elf bug is high or low, but mineral elf bugs are like
Just like the gambling stones on the earth, you don’t know what minerals you can get before space is opened. It may be mithril gold, or it may be coal mines or other useless minerals that you have never seen before. Therefore, the value of golden elf bugs depends on space.
The final conclusion is based on the minerals within.
The nobleman didn't know which boss he offended, but he encountered such a weird thing. Even the most ordinary coal mine can still make a profit, but it will be less. Fortunately, he finally made back his money by using seawater to make salt.
There is still a market for sea salt in inland areas. Because sea salt is white and clean, the nobles pride themselves on being noble. Even if the price of sea salt is high due to inconvenient transportation, they only use sea salt for consumption.
"I hope Mr. Rongguang won't fall asleep this time!"
After laughing at the noble, Gervais became a little worried again. He has a weird terrain that is rare. Most of it is covered by cliffs. Could it be a rock mine? But I don't plan to build a castle or anything, so it's of no use.
Ah, and no one buys this thing at all.
"Let's go look around and see what kind of mine there is!"
The more I thought about Gervais, the more guilty I felt, so I quickly stopped my thoughts and started walking inside, hoping in my heart that my luck would be better.
The area of the space opened by Wall-E is not small. Gervais estimates that it is about the same as the space opened by Betty. However, most of the area is occupied by steep rock walls, which are more than 20 meters high. Therefore, Gervais cannot temporarily
Climbing up, you can only search in the open area below the rock wall. The vegetation in the open area is quite dense, and there are many small trees and weeds. Gervais and others need to use their long swords to clear the way while searching.
He didn't know how to look for ore. Now he could only look around to see if there was any ore exposed on the surface. If not, he would dig underground later.
Gervais took the lead, followed by Nashen and Anna. The three of them looked around all the way. Gervais used his long sword to cut away some weeds and trees from time to time. As a result, he wandered around for a long time and searched all over the open space without finding anything.
"Lord Nashen, have you discovered anything?"
Gervais's position at this moment has returned to the entrance of the space. Without any clue, he could only ask Nashen to see if they had found anything.
"Master Gervais, I haven't discovered anything, and I have no experience in finding ores!"
Na Shen shook his head helplessly. He couldn't even afford elf bugs. Of course, his experience in this area was not as rich as Gervais's. As for the news related to elf bugs, they were not secrets. They were all common sense. Na Shen
After all, he has been a lord for more than ten years, so he is familiar with it and can teach Gervais a little bit, but he knows nothing about things in space.
"Anna, what about you? Did you find anything?"
Gervais looked at the last little maid again. At this moment, Anna was holding Walli's jade box and looking around curiously.
"Not found, sir!"
Hearing Gervais' question, Anna shrank her neck, blushed, and quickly answered Gervais's question, because she had not paid attention to the ground just now, and was only looking at the surrounding environment, for fear that Gervais would blame him.
After receiving Anna's answer, Gervais was not angry. Anna was not even a titled knight, and her senses were not as strong as his and Nashen's. Even if she looked carefully, she might not be able to find anything.
"Should we start digging?"
After confirming that no one had found anything, Gervais began to think. Since there was no discovery on the surface, it could only be buried underground.
"Forget it, I didn't bring any tools. Let's go to the cliff first and have a look."
Although he felt that there was a high possibility that the minerals were underground, since he did not have the tools to dig, Gervais planned to go to the cliff to see if there were any traces of minerals, especially since there was a huge cave there.
"Let's go over there and check it out."
Gervais waved his hand and signaled to Nashen and Anna behind him.
Pushing aside the low branches, Gervais took the lead and came to the edge of the cliff. In front of him was the entrance of the huge cave. The entrance of the cave didn't look very big from a distance. Unexpectedly, when he got closer, he discovered that the space inside the cave was very large.
The terrain inside goes deep into the ground, with a drop of three to four meters from the ground. However, the road going down is very gentle. With the light coming in from the outside, the situation inside can be clearly seen. This cave is at least the size of two basketball courts.
.
"Come on, let's go in and take a look!"
Seeing the scene inside, Gervais walked in first. There was enough light inside, and there were no living things in the mineral space, so there was no need to worry about safety. Gervais entered the cave entrance directly and slowly climbed down the gentle slope.
Walked down.
After arriving at the bottom of the cave, the entire cave seemed even more empty. Except for the mud at the bottom, the cave was surrounded by rocks. The rocks were relatively flat and did not look like jagged rocks. Only some large and small stalactites hung on the top. Stalactites
A few water droplets fell to the ground from time to time, and there was a small puddle on the ground not far from Gervais and the others.
