Volume Three The Battle of the Sea Clan Chapter 386 Rewards
In a long and narrow cave of more than twenty feet.
Several pieces of luminous blue fluorite inlaid on the top reflect everything here quite clearly, but the ground and walls are all pitted and uneven, and they can be seen as traces of artificial drilling.
Judging from the age of the traces, they should not be too far back, and they were dug out directly with sharp tools.
On one side of the cave wall, there is a square passage that is several feet high. However, the entrance of the passage is blocked by a large monster skeleton with nearly half of it intact.
At this moment, in front of the passage, a young man in ragged clothes and a slightly pale face who looked like a mining slave stopped and stood, looking at the monster's skeleton with a thoughtful look on his face.
This young man is naturally Liu Ming.
After nearly a day of continuous deepening, this place is no longer far from the deep passage marked in the second half of the map.
In the past period of time, he could see the corpses of some mine slaves who died in miserable conditions from time to time. This was the first time he saw the skeleton of a monster like this.
There is not a trace of flesh and blood left on this rather huge half of the skeleton, and there is not a trace of spiritual power fluctuations. It seems that it must have been dead for a long time.
Judging from the only remaining skeleton remains, it can be vaguely seen that when the body was complete, it should be three to four feet in size, and its appearance generally resembled a giant dog. Although the remaining bones of one forelimb and hind limb were badly damaged, the claws were
They all looked extremely sharp, and there were some fangs several inches long scattered on the ground near its head, which gave off a cold light in the dim light.
"This must be that evil beast?"
After Liu Ming pondered for a while, he muttered a few words in an inaudible voice.
Suddenly, with a thought in his mind, he took the bone knife from his waist and brought it close to the skeleton. After a brief comparison, he found that apart from the newness and oldness, the materials of the two were very similar, but there were some differences in the details.
different.
But the next moment, he suddenly moved his arm, and the bone knife in his hand turned into a cold light and struck down.
There was a "pop" sound.
A thick bone on the skeleton in front of him was immediately and easily broken by it.
"As expected!" Liu Ming nodded and put away the bone knife with a look of understanding on his face.
Although the half-skeleton in front of you is undoubtedly the remains of an evil beast, the quality of its bones is obviously not as good as the material of the bone knife in his hand. It seems that there are different types of evil beasts, and there is a huge difference in strength.
Otherwise, this half-skeleton would not have been abandoned here so easily, and no one would care about it.
But even so, if the corpse of such an evil beast that is equivalent to the liquid condensation realm is placed in the outside world, its fur and bones are still good materials for refining spiritual weapons.
But here, even the better skeletons of evil beasts can only be simply processed into sharp weapons, their furs are made into map clothing, and their flesh and blood are only used to satisfy their hunger.
However, I saw that although the mining slaves here were all sallow and thin, their physical bodies were much stronger than those of ordinary monks of the same level in the outside world. It seemed that the flesh and blood of this evil beast had some effect on strengthening the system, which was very important for the practice of the Dragon and Tiger Underworld Skill.
There are many benefits.
A hint of thought flashed in Liu Ming's eyes, but after touching his chin, he immediately put the bone knife back on his waist, bypassed the skeleton of the evil beast, and continued deeper.
…
An hour later.
Liu Ming walked out of a small cave with a map in his hand and came to a fork in the road, with a look of helplessness on his face.
Ever since he saw the skeleton of the evil beast, it has been difficult to find a matching intersection according to the route indicated on the map. After trying several times, he couldn't help but recall the words of the strange young man he met at Sanchakou earlier.
.
"It seems that this place is already deep in the veins. People often open up new passages, which is why the map in hand is not very useful." Liu Ming couldn't help but think to himself.
After he sighed softly, he put away the map in his hand, took out another blank animal skin from his body, and after sketching it at will based on the current terrain, he found another fork in the road.
He walked in quickly.
Half a day later.
The new animal skin in Liu Ming's hand had already been marked with many route markers, and a cross had been drawn on most of the routes.
Since he was already deep in the veins, he had indeed found many caves through repeated attempts in the past time.
But what made him feel quite depressed was that most of these places were filled with ordinary ores of little value, or waste mines that had been mined out.
At this moment, he was holding a piece of dried meat and was chewing it while continuing to search carefully in a long and narrow passage.
This kind of dried meat made from the blood and flesh of evil beasts is quite tough and almost impossible to chew. When you take it into your mouth, you can still feel a pungent smell of blood, which makes people feel nauseous and unpalatable.
Extreme!
Speaking of which, since he entered the world of immortality, this was the second time that he had directly eaten the flesh and blood of animals.
After all, after the demonic beast's blood and flesh are refined into elixirs, the effect will be much better, and there will be fewer impurities and side effects.
Liu Ming was a little uncomfortable with it at first, but after feeling its special effects, he couldn't stop eating it.
It turns out that this kind of dried meat, soon after being swallowed into the throat, turns into a fine wisp of heat throughout the body's meridians, giving an indescribable feeling of comfort to the limbs, and even the mind seems to be a little clearer.
.
It seems that just as he had guessed before, the meat of this evil beast is really beneficial to the physical body.
But what makes Liu Ming a little strange is that the flesh of this evil beast can only restore the mana in the body very little, which is very different from the flesh and blood of ordinary monsters...
It seems that this evil beast cannot be regarded as a real monster, and its origin deserves further investigation.
After he walked along the passage for no less than a few hundred meters, he saw a new passage that seemed to have just been opened at the end of the passage not far ahead.
He was overjoyed and quickly walked over. When he came to the entrance of the cave, he looked at the small sword marked with black and red blood stains at the entrance, and immediately frowned.
After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and turned around to find another mine tunnel.
Although there should be a lot of extremely rare ore resources in this passage, since there are marks left, it is obviously occupied by others.
As Liu Ming walked along the way, he could see some abandoned mine tunnels that had been excavated from time to time, and quite a few of them had various marks left at the entrances.
With his current situation, there is no need to take the initiative to provoke other forces.
…
at the same time.
There is another cave not far from the mine trading area.
The cave is relatively spacious, about thirty feet in size, and there are several simple stone houses made of huge rocks beside it.
The stone house is completely enclosed, with no windows and only a few holes on the four stone walls.
In the open space in front of the house, there are two rather burly mining slave men, patrolling back and forth. Each has a weapon made of the bones of evil beasts on their waists, and their eyes glance at the only passage here from time to time.
, with a look of caution on his face.
In the largest stone house among them, there was a large bonfire burning at the moment.
Several pieces of barbecue were set up above the bonfire, and waves of meaty aroma mixed with the strong smell of blood were wafting out, permeating the entire stone house.
Beside the campfire, a man with a fleshy face, a ferocious face, and a body of about two feet was pacing back and forth, looking fiercely at a short mine slave with green skin and an uncomfortable look on his face.
"So, it was a newcomer who killed my brother. But where did you get the news?" Suddenly, the big man said coldly, with just a slight squeeze of his two big hands.
, and immediately there was a crackling sound of joints.
"Reporting to Boss Sha, I recently used demonic insects to use secret techniques on Tie Ling and others. I wanted to explore their movements and see if there were any newly discovered resource points, but I never expected to hear news about your brother from their conversation.
So I came to inform you as soon as possible." The short mine slave hurriedly replied with a smile.
"Hmph, I will personally verify this news. As long as it is confirmed to be true, it will naturally benefit you. But if you dare to deceive me, I will break your bones inch by inch."
After hearing this, the big man stopped for a moment, and the popping sound of the joints in his hands suddenly stopped. The muscles on his chest and arms bulged high, showing a layer of crystal color, as if they were made of steel...
"Boss Sha, how dare I deceive you. I swear by my inner demons that I will never be half-false." The short mine slave couldn't help but be startled under the aura of the big man, and then he swore and patted his chest and said.
"Very good, you give me the news, saying that Sha has offered a reward of two thousand spiritual stones to find the whereabouts of this newcomer. A mere newcomer dares to attack my people. Although my brother is just a loser, this revenge is not enough.
If I retaliate, others won't know what to think of me. As long as this newcomer is found, I will definitely make him regret coming to this world." The big man said to the short mine slave again with a ferocious face.
The short mine slave naturally said yes repeatedly, and then with a wave of his hand, the big man left the room obediently.
Quietness returned to the stone house again.
…
Naturally, Liu Ming didn't know that his life was now worth only two thousand spiritual stones in the eyes of some people.
At this moment, he was already in a self-made cave deep in a certain mineral vein. He was taking out a formation flag from his sleeve and was setting up a temporary formation.
At the entrance of the cave, a white bone scorpion with red scales lay quietly on the ground, watching everything nearby carefully.
This passage was a deserted and deserted place that he spent a lot of time to finally find. He also used the low-grade iron sword spiritual weapon he got from the mine guard. It took him a long time to finally open it.
This shelter in front of me.
Although the stone cave opened on the wall of the mine is not too big, only two or three feet in size, this may be because it is within the area of rare mineral veins. Even ordinary stones are as hard as iron. Even though he now has
The physical body and infinite brute force far surpass those of monks of the same level. Without daring to easily consume mana to activate the Dragon and Tiger Underworld Skill, each sword strike can only cut a few inches thick on the stone wall.
Just one layer.
At this time, Liu Ming finally understood why the mining slaves worked so hard for some rare ores.
If the ores in all the passages are so difficult to mine, it will not be an easy task to collect enough for a month, and it will be even more difficult to obtain more rare ores. (To be continued. .Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
