Although Jasmine's answer was full of loopholes, fortunately, Ian already had a preconceived impression, so it didn't take much effort for her to figure him out.
As for this guy's idea of going down to the river to investigate, Jasmine didn't mean to stop him at all. She just sneered in her heart and thought to herself, you, a landlubber, can stay in the water for five minutes, even if you are ruthless.
Therefore, we didn't stop him. Anyway, Ian still had the effect of the flying spell for nearly an hour, so there was no need to worry about this guy's safety.
"Then I'll go, keep an eye on the two of them." Ian ordered and flew towards the water again. He wanted to see what kind of beasts were hidden in the river so that Jasmine could be attacked silently.
.
The water in the river was cold, and the vision became darker as we went to the bottom of the river. Coupled with the silt brought by the undercurrent, the naked eye could not play much role. Ian could only rely on more than 600 yards of mental power to detect danger.
Different from his anxious state of mind just now, this time Ian went steadily downwards and soon realized that the positive energy in the river was much richer than that in the outside world. It was basically equivalent to the concentration outside Todes Cemetery.
When he saw this, he realized that it was indeed a suitable place for magical creatures to live, and he became increasingly vigilant.
Although the Avon River is deep, Ian quickly approached the bottom of the river under his high-speed sneaking. The closer to the bottom, the richer the positive energy, which even made Ian a little scared.
I became more and more worried about whether I should retreat. After all, the people who could live here were definitely not good people.
But people like to be curious. The more there is nothing here, the more curious he is, so he goes all the way to the river bed.
At this time, it was only three minutes since he entered the water, and he still didn't feel out of breath and needed to take a breath, so he continued to fly in a direction rich in positive energy.
In the dim environment, he suddenly saw a little light reflected somewhere on the river bed. He immediately became vigilant and cautiously explored there with his mental strength.
"This is?"
It turned out to be an underground river, and extending further in, the entire rock wall of the underground river was actually surrounded by energy stones. The light just now was emitted by those accidentally exposed energy stones.
The underground river winds downwards and ends in a colorful space.
(Could it be a mine?)
Ian was shocked. Just as he was about to find out, his heart started beating loudly. It turned out that there was insufficient oxygen.
He had no choice but to come up for air.
"How are you doing? Did you find anything?" Jasmine asked a little embarrassed.
Ian took a deep breath and nodded.
This time it was Jasmine's turn to be surprised. She didn't expect that there was really something at the bottom of the river. What if just now... Thinking of this, her hands and feet became cold, and she asked in a trembling voice: "What is that thing?"
Ian thought for a while, looked at Will beside him, and said casually: "A water lizard, it's not a big deal."
"Water lizard?" Jasmine was confused when she suddenly heard Ian say in her ear with his mental power: "I just lied to Will. I didn't find any dangerous creatures in the river, but there are some dangerous creatures on the river bed.
Underground river, I suspect there is an energy mine connected there!"
"Energy mine?" Jasmine looked at him in surprise and replied with the same mental power, "You read that right?"
Ian nodded: "Of course, I followed the positive energy escaping to find it. I can't be wrong. Haven't you noticed that the positive energy here is incredibly rich?"
Jasmine was overjoyed after hearing this. An energy mine would not be exchanged for a mountain of gold. If this were true, they would be rich. But she was a little confused: "This city has been built for hundreds of years. Many explorers must have been here.
, why did you discover it?"
After hearing this, Ian shrugged and replied: "Probably because no one has sunk the Appleton. I believe the previous battle said it cracked the earth. Maybe it was at that time that the earth was broken."
What about the rock formations between the Underwater River and the River Avon!"
There seems to be some truth in saying this. After all, it is normal for the terrain to change in that battle that can be called a doomsday disaster.
"Why do you think so much? It's true that we look for opportunities to develop and make money. I'm too poor now!" Ian gritted his teeth.
Since Gabriel took away the space ring, all his wealth was also taken away. There are more than 400 level 3 magic stones and more than 800 level 4 magic stones. They are comparable to a talent.
The person's wealth and assets were all gone in just one night, and it makes one's heart bleed just to think about it.
"Damn Holy Light Mercy Society." He cursed in a low voice.
Jasmine was also aware of this matter and was very sympathetic. She thought for a while and said: "Then check this matter out before your flying effect dissipates and see what kind of mineral vein it is and its quality.
And what’s the scale?”
Ian nodded, but when he was about to go down, he was suddenly pulled by someone. He looked at Jasmine doubtfully and said, "Any other instructions?"
Jasmine pointed at herself and said, "Take me with you." Seeing Ian looking at the two people lying on the ground, she said angrily, "It's only been a few days since the war, how can anyone dare to come in?
Die, hold me, hurry up."
"Okay!" Ian touched his nose in embarrassment and carefully held the noble girl's slender waist. It was as comfortable as he imagined.
He turned around and said "be careful" to the noble girl in his arms, then rose into the sky and then dived into the water.
Jasmine felt his burning breath and strong chest, and for the first time in her life, her face burned red. Even the cold river water could not cool it down.
This time, Ian was familiar with the road. It didn't take much effort to reach the connection point of the underground river. He used his mental power to signal Jasmine: "Pay attention to the surrounding environment. I am responsible for exploring the situation in the underground river. The river beast may be inside."
.”
Hearing the words, Jasmine hugged Ian a little tighter, followed the words and spread out her spiritual power, making a warning look, and then Ian flew inside.
"There are water-attributed energy stones on the periphery, most of which are less than level four. However, considering this is a fringe area, the quality of this vein should not be bad."
The two of them walked together. Jasmine explained with mental strength, and Ian nodded from time to time.
It didn't take long before they surfaced and came to the colorful cave underneath.
"As expected." Jasmine's water properties are very good, and she barely breathed after leaving the water. She picked up an energy stone with a look of surprise and smiled at Ian, "Look, a standard fourth-level energy stone... this one
, it’s almost level three, it’s indeed an energy stone vein.”
"Light blue, earthy yellow. At a rough look, it should be a mixed associated mineral vein with water as the main component and soil as the supplement. The quality is okay, but I don't know what the output is." Both of them have taken alchemy classes and know basic mineral knowledge.
Get general information quickly.
I saw her holding up a pile of light blue and amber stones, with a smile that couldn't help but say: "Master Hyde, we are rich."
The color of the cave is lit by the light of these energy stones. At this moment, they are held in the palm of Jasmine's hand, and they also reflect the brilliance of this noble lady movingly.
Ian also smiled slightly and replied: "Yes, we are developed."
As long as this mineral vein is developed, they can exchange for enough magic stones at the monastery, and their spiritual power can grow at the fastest speed. The excess wealth can also be used to purchase magic spells or other wizard needs.
However, one problem is that although the Kingdom of Camelot allows nobles to mine energy stone veins, it also stipulates that the ownership of mineral veins is not restricted by territory. In other words, once a mineral vein is discovered, even in the fiefdom of a noble
, then the owner must be able to defend it. If he cannot defeat others, he can only hand over the treasure to others obediently.
In other words, once the news about the existence of mineral veins here is leaked, their opportunity to make a fortune will most likely be ruined. After all, there are dozens of nobles in Devon County, big and small. Although they can't beat the Yinguang family, the Yinguang family is not the one who makes the decision.
of.
If you want to eat alone, you must keep this secret.
Otherwise, you can only sell it at a good price and walk away.
But Ian, who has lost 90% of his net worth, is naturally not willing to just get one vote and leave. Otherwise, when will he be promoted? You must know that he can still double the upper limit of mental power and double the upper limit of negative energy.
The rewards are not used. Once doubled, the time for him to accumulate mental power to reach the upper limit will be postponed indefinitely.
Without the assistance of the magic stone, he would probably have to practice more than ten years longer than others. When others were successfully promoted in the same period, he was still an awakened person. Although he could claim to be invincible at the same level with his terrifying upper limit of mental power, he could also
He beats up most of the evil believers in the rank of sub-spiritual envoys, but that is not what he wants to see.
Fishing at a low level is ridiculous. Maybe I was tortured by someone practicing trumpet that day, and I was given the equipment to be used as a wedding dress. That would be an injustice.
Thinking of this, he suddenly became envious of Will. Although his reward was also to double the upper limit of mental power, because vampires cannot cultivate mental power, Hunter's Obelisk directly converted the reward into a doubling of mental power. This
I don't know how much stronger he is than if he accumulated mental strength honestly.
If Will hadn't been weakened continuously, there's no way he and Jasmine would have fallen into the hands of this vampire.
"But why is there no trace of the river beast here? Doesn't it live here? But the energy field here is the strongest, so there is no reason why it shouldn't be there." Ian was puzzled while still maintaining vigilance and vigilance.
He never relaxed for a moment.
Without dealing with this magical creature, there is no way to explore the ore veins. The sad thing is that this guy is too good at hiding, and there is no trace of him.
Jasmine, who was happily beside her, suddenly froze when she saw this. She opened her mouth silently and didn't know how to explain it. If you explain it, you're afraid of this guy being angry. If you don't explain it, you're afraid of him staring at it. It's really troublesome.
In the end, she told the truth. After all, they would definitely come here often in the future. If Ian had waited until he had done something to persuade others, he would definitely turn his back.
This bastard is so stubborn!
…
"You mean, in fact, there are no river beasts at all?" Ian asked blankly.
Jasmine hummed, looking down at her toes spinning on the ground, her voice as light as a mosquito, anxiously waiting for Ian's scolding.
But after a long time, there was no sound at all in the cave, so she couldn't help but quietly raise her head.
Could it be that this guy has started to sulk and ignore others?
When she looked up, she found Ian smiling helplessly. When he met her eyes, he said helplessly: "Okay, one person will even it out once and for all, and no one is allowed to retaliate in the future."
"Hehe, of course!" Jasmine had no idea that Ian would let him go so lightly. After all, he had wasted 10 achievement points and had been worried for a long time. So as soon as she saw Ian making peace, she immediately agreed, like
He nodded hurriedly like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Since there is no danger, let's just accept the reward here. The water attribute energy field is gentle, and we will not be repelled."
"good!"
After saying that, Jasmine followed Ian's prompts and began to receive the obelisk reward.
"Jasmine Phoenix's mental power limit has doubled. Should it be increased now?"
"Yes!" the female voice replied nervously.
After a while, the dull voice of the obelisk machine sounded again.
"Jasmine Phoenix's negative energy limit has doubled. Should it be raised now?"
