With a whole vein of magic stone as the backing, Fen has never done this kind of trick before. She said: "Whether it is suitable or not depends on the reserve capacity of the vein. There was no plan to do this in the first place, so the calculation of the demand was
You have to start over to determine the final result.”
"In terms of scale, it shouldn't be a big problem. Because I have found a blue heart grade and even some purple grade magic stones from the belly of the gold digging bug. If this gold digging bug didn't come from other places,
If it comes from the mine, but is born along with this vein, this should be able to prove that this vein is not a poor ore that will be mined out after a few hits."
Having said this, someone also thought of one thing. It was because magic stones of a level above the Blue Heart Stone were more difficult to digest, or that the gold-digging insect was killed by itself as soon as it dug up a stone of this level and ate it.
If it's the latter, this is really unlucky.
The group of villagers who had their ears straightened up, when they heard that keyword, they all shouted in their hearts. What! Purple Alexandrite! If they had not provoked this group of people in the first place, that Purple Alexandrite would have belonged to
Of course, such considerations completely ignore the gold-digging bug that they cannot deal with. But for greedy people who are blinded by money, the risk does not exist.
Lich, who had a weak concept of item value, said lightly: "There is a purple-level one. That should be useful, anyway, let's give it a try."
As for a certain time traveler, although he has a better understanding of money and has a habit of keeping accounts, he still cannot change his poor nature. One million and ten billion are astronomical figures of the same level to him. Fen said casually,
He was unconvinced. Anyway, things are meant to be used, and they won't increase in value by themselves if they are left there.
After the two of them made their decision, they tied two more horses to the cart, and at the same time called on the remaining three horses to head towards the mine. Because the carriage stopped outside the village, some distance from the mine. Pick up.
Neither Lin nor Fen were sure how long it would take to get down, so they set up the temporary base closer.
As for the group of villagers who stood like wooden figures, they were completely ignored by the two people as discussed before. The people who could not move felt not only regret but also resentment in their hearts. But it was useless no matter how they felt, because they were all equally unable to move.
So this emotion quickly turned into despair and callousness. In the end, they died before starving to death or being bitten by passing wild animals.
However, things will not go so smoothly for the departing former Demon King and someone. Because this village has a real lord, and because not all the villagers were captured by Fen. Not only the old man in the village sent
The first wave of messengers who reported back to their lords, and those who were lucky enough to escape, escaped back to their true home.
The lord here is a pioneer knight - Joey Smith. He was born as a blacksmith and obtained the status of a knight from the great lord Marquis Shaobo because of his military exploits. Compared with other colleagues who chose barren and small territories, he asked for a pioneer knight
He has the qualifications to lead a group of subordinates and the refugees who cannot survive in their hometown to carve out their own fief in the ownerless mountains and forests.
Although according to the legal theory of the lost land, the knight's fief cannot be hereditary. However, the territory opened up by the pioneering knight can choose a part that does not exceed the upper limit of the knight's territory to become a hereditary territory, which is to truly enter the sequence of the noble lord.
.
Therefore, when they find some relatively rare minerals, most pioneer knights will choose to hand them over to the great lord they are loyal to in exchange for other benefits. In addition to allowing themselves to gain a foothold faster, they can also fight well with the people they are loyal to.
relation.
However, Josh Smith's ambition drove him to choose to privatize this magic stone mine. As a pioneer knight, he understood that in order to maximize the benefits, he could not be too far away from the people. If he wanted to rely on his identity as a knight,
It is impossible to exploit the people who came here with him.
People who would choose to leave their homeland and go to a strange place to make a living in a strange place have a ruthless spirit. If they are offended, it is not impossible to say, "The knight is very brave. He went to fight against the monsters alone and never came back again."
may happen.
Tying most people into the wagon of profit not only stimulates everyone's work efficiency, but also becomes a bond that maintains everyone. No one does not regard themselves as a member of the group. The biggest difference from traditional feudalism and slavery is that
It lies in positivity and initiative.
Just like when an outsider comes to a mining village, the old man in the village will not think about hiding things or covering up mistakes for fear of being blamed or even in danger of his life. He chose to send an envoy and proactively tell the knight master what he wanted to do.
So well prepared.
Leading such a group of people, Joey Smith is not worried about being turned over. Because although the magic stone mine is very valuable, it has to be sold to exchange it for yellow-orange gold coins. And to sell it is not visible to the public.
It cannot be sold openly. If the news leaks out, the first person to come to the door will probably be the great lord to whom he is loyal.
Relying on the contacts accumulated in the past, Joey Smith happened to have the means to secretly sell this kind of thing. So even if Joey did not do the mining himself, the villagers did not have any objections.
They are very calculating, and they also understand that without the connection of this knight master, not only will they lose a black income, but they may also be killed by Marquis Shao Bo. On the grounds of punishing greedy people, as a discovery of minerals
An example of someone who refuses to report it. It must be as miserable as it is.
After Joey Smith received the news from the messenger, he immediately gathered the private soldiers in the territory. Maybe most of the people in the mining village were veterans who followed him in the north and south, but after all, their vision was not as good as his own. Joe
Yi Ke didn't think that with the arrangements in the village, it was impossible to get a magician and two apprentices.
Although the private soldiers in his fief do not exceed the size of a knight's territory, they are raised from magic stone mines and are unusually well-equipped. Especially this time the opponent is a magician, and some magic-breaking treasures are used as treasure chests.
Weapons were also taken out from the warehouse.
In addition, in order to increase his confidence in dealing with the magician, Joey Smith set his sights on his friends who accidentally visited him.
In addition to being former comrades-in-arms, they are now his channels for privately selling magic stones. The most important thing is that they are members of the Thieves Guild. They can exert much greater energy in interpersonal relationships than themselves. Find some confident people.
Masters who can deal with magicians are no problem.
After a long search, Joey Smith finally found his friend in the brothel. The man who was hugging the beautiful woman, drinking and bragging was a bit drunk, and he rounded and flattened the soft meat in his hands wantonly.
"Hey, Little John, we're in trouble." Joey Smith sat down in front of his friend and said in a puzzled manner.
"If it was really bad, you wouldn't have such an expression. I think it's because I've caused unnecessary trouble, but you haven't. You just want to push things towards me."
With a smile, Joey Smith said: "A magician broke into that place, you said you can stay out of it. If that place is exposed and a way of making money is cut off, the big guys behind you will also be dissatisfied
Bar."
Hearing a certain sensitive keyword, Little John pushed away the prostitute who was fighting back unceremoniously. This short, plain-looking man clapped his hands, stepped forward and lowered his voice and asked: "Do you know who they are?
?Are there four people, one male and three female?"
Regarding this unexpected reaction, Joey Smith suppressed his curiosity and said seriously: "I don't know who they are yet. My subordinates said that they only saw one man and two women. The male is
Official magicians, the two younger women are just magic apprentices."
Playing with the gold coin that had suddenly turned into his hand, Little John let it roll between his fingers. He half-complained: "The number of people is not right. I thought I caught them."
"Them?" With a lackluster sentence, Joey Smith could no longer suppress his curiosity and asked: "Who are you referring to? What is the background of the other party?"
With a flick of his thumb, the gold coins flew high, but disappeared out of thin air without falling. Little John took a sip of ale, burped and said: "Recently, there is a high-profile bounty in the dark world, and the bounty is on a male magician.
He was originally active in the Basque Country, and later entered Wadwo, the wood elf tribe. No one dared to do anything in that kind of place. According to the news, he left the wood elf tribe not long ago, but he had no idea where he was going.
People know that, so many people blocked the place where he might go and waited. The rest is to see who is lucky enough and the target of the reward comes to the door. I originally thought I caught them, but now I see
It’s not like getting up anymore.”
"One man and four women." Joey Smith rubbed the stubble on his chin and asked the question that concerned him more: "How much is the reward for that man?"
"Haha, you are interested too." Little John smiled and waved a finger with his right hand. He did not let anyone guess, and said directly: "The reward for that man is Xbar Kil.
(10,000 gold), life or death. This is a rare big deal, are you interested in joining in? As for the unknown magician who broke into the village, that is just a small problem."
With that said, Little John patted the dagger on his right waist. Relying on this magic-breaking blade and his stealth skills, he has earned a reputation as a mage killer. His dream is to one day successfully assassinate the magic tower.
The magician in the game has obtained the top title of assassin such as 'God of Killing'.
Joey Smith, who was silently calculating the gains and losses, was thinking about the pros and cons of participating and not participating. At this time, a man burst into a cold sweat, broke into the brothel, came to his lord and shouted:
"My lord! My lord! Something bad has happened."
The villagers who luckily escaped finally appeared in front of Joey Smith and said in a panic: "Although we tricked the man into it and successfully buried him alive, a golden skeleton stepped out of the carriage. He was not only
He used strange magic to immobilize other people, making them unable to move. He also brutally killed those who had lost the ability to resist."
