He was currently guarding the newly named Quel'danis City, and was short of manpower, so he could not seize the gold mine for the time being. There was no other way, so the two had no choice but to talk about other things, and they talked about Kosaro again.
Yulin Blood Eagle said: "I don't understand. Why did the trolls build this city in the first place, which can only be called a giant staircase? Is it just for this flat land on the top of the mountain? This is too exaggerated.
! If it’s just for this piece of flat land, he can just build a road up there. Why do he have to build so many big steps? He’s really full.”
"Grand Staircase, Kosaro? Wait...let me think about it..." Mezdra thought seriously for a while and said, "Let's go out and take a look."
"Take a look," Mezdra said as he pulled the Yulin Blood Eagle out of the stone house.
He watched as he walked, knocking on the stone for a while, and then asking the elves to dig up the floor and check the soil layer on the ground.
Finally, he patted the dust on his hands and stood up and said: "It's clear! This Xingsaro should have been a major mining area in the ancient troll empire. It was a huge open-pit mine! It took many years of mining to form what it is today.
Those big steps should have been set aside specifically to facilitate the mining of ores."
Mezdra pointed to the stone door and said: "Look from the 1st to 4th floors, all the doors are not in a straight line, but are staggered. This is mainly to prevent the door from accidentally passing through when transporting ore or other things.
The top of the mountain rolled down to the bottom of the mountain, and it was designed this way on purpose. This mining area is very large, and we will look around to see if there are any unexploited veins."
Yulin Blood Eagle was also interested. At least this answer solved the question that had been lingering in his mind, so he accompanied Mezdra on the fourth floor. When he reached the northernmost point, Mezdra looked like
, who was born with a keen sense of smell for metal ores, walked around and found a path to the back of the mountain. After walking for a while, they came to a very shallow cave.
Yulin Blood Eagle suddenly remembered that in the game, a troll wizard should have lived here before. Mezdra ignored all the messy relics left by the troll wizard on the ground. However, he was very concerned about the surrounding stone walls.
If he was interested, he would get a small hammer and beat it again and again. Sometimes he would even put some stones in his mouth to taste them.
Finally, he and Yulin Blood Eagle walked out of the cave, threw a small stone to Yulin Blood Eagle and said: "This is a vein of gold mine, not much has been dug in. You see that the entrance of the cave is so small and shallow, it must have been discovered not long ago.
, the ancient troll empire collapsed. And their descendants did not live up to expectations and did not know how to mine, so this remaining mineral vein is still a complete mineral vein."
"Gold mine...mine vein..." Yulin Blood Eagle felt that happiness came so suddenly. He felt that his breathing was short and he was shaking a little when he spoke.
"This gold vein is a little more difficult to refine than sand gold, but it doesn't matter. The content of these gold ores is good. I'll just send some people to help you refine it in the future." Mezdra said.
"Yeah, okay! Okay!" Yulin Blood Eagle nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, with only one thought in his mind: I'm getting rich! I'm getting rich!
"What's wrong with you?" Mezdra looked at him strangely and said, "I find that every time gold is mentioned, you are very excited. You are really not like an elf. You are more obsessed with metals than us dwarves."
"Yes, yes, I am most obsessed with gold!" Yulin Blood Eagle nodded hurriedly, like a fast motor.
"We're looking around!" Mezdra said.
Having received the sweetness, Yulin Blood Eagle is now so grateful to Mezdra that he almost treats Mezdra like a Buddha. He responds to his requests and follows Mezdra closely, like a following dog.
As long as Mezdra said: dig here and have a look, he immediately asked people to dig without any conditions, and even did it himself. He did not want to lose any points. He only wanted to find the gold veins. He kept digging in many places.
, although Mezdra always shook his head every time and said: What a pity! But it did not reduce Yulin Blood Eagle's enthusiastic expectation for gold at all.
Finally we arrived at the foot of the easternmost mountain.
Mezdra looked at the blocked hole and asked, "Why is this hole blocked?"
Yulin Blood Eagle suddenly remembered that there were hundreds of evil branch elite trolls here who had not surrendered.
He said nervously: "There are hundreds of Evil Branch Trolls here. They refused to surrender when we attacked and were blocked by us." He turned to the elves beside him and said: "Go and kill everyone.
Call me, open the cave entrance and take a look!"
"It must have been blocked for several months!" Mezdra said while looking at it.
"It's been more than three months, almost 100 days!" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"Then what's there to be nervous about? If they're thirsty, they'll starve to death. Just open the hole. Why are you so nervous?" Mezdra said.
"It's better to be careful," Yulin Blood Eagle said: "They are different from us, they don't mind eating the same kind of meat."
After the elves arrived, Yulin Blood Eagle asked people to move the things outside the cave entrance. He had already pulled Mezdra back to a safe place, then took off his bow and arrow and pointed it at the cave entrance until everything at the cave entrance was moved away.
, not a single Evil Branch Troll soldier rushed out.
Yulin Blood Eagle had no choice but to call a dozen senior rangers in front, usually firing flares while searching inside. In addition to constantly finding Bai Sensen's bones along the way, not even a single troll was found. When they almost reached the innermost part,
Occasionally, one or two trolls will suddenly come out and attack.
But how can these hungry trolls be the opponents of high-level rangers? It takes two or three times to defeat one of them. When they reach the innermost layer, they kill the last troll priest hiding inside.
Light the torch.
When he saw the gnaw marks on the bones of various trolls piled all over the ground, Yulin Blood Eagle finally couldn't help but vomited. Not only did he vomit, he felt that his bile was almost gone.
. He vomited until there was nothing in his stomach, but he couldn't help it, and he retched again and again.
The small piece of gold ore that he had been holding tightly was thrown away. He had heard that trolls cannibalize their own kind, but he didn't think much of it. He only thought that these trolls were too barbaric. But
When he actually saw the ribs and skulls covered with bite marks, he finally couldn't help but vomit.
Of course, he was not the only one who vomited, there were also several Elf Rangers who were unlucky with him. On the contrary, Mezdra looked as if nothing had happened, but he was digging around in the cave wall inside. He took a few pieces of ore and gave them to him.
Yulin Blood Eagle asked him to take it, and then walked along the way in to the outside of the cave, knocking on the side of the stone cave.
After digging a piece, he took out a few ore samples and gave them to Yulin Blood Eagle. Yulin Blood Eagle couldn't take that much, so he gave it to other elves to hold. By the time he walked out of the cave, Mezdra had dug a total of
Hundreds and dozens of ore samples.
Outside the cave, Mezdra asked all the elves to place the ore samples side by side in the sun. He checked each piece, always shaking his head and sighing.
Yulin Blood Eagle thought that this must be another mine that had been dug out, so he didn't hold out much hope, and he wasn't surprised to see such a situation. He thought to himself, look at how this mine has been dug.
It’s so deep, it’s not surprising that it’s all dug up. How can you be so lucky? You picked up a gold mine vein, and you want to pick up another one? Even if gold falls from the sky, it will fall at this frequency for those who are too greedy to pick it up.
If you come down, sooner or later you will be crushed to death by falling gold.
"It's okay. If you were poached by the troll, just poach them all!" Yulin Blood Eagle comforted Mezdra and said.
"It's not that it has been dug out. This vein is very large and deep. What a pity!" Mezdra sighed.
"It hasn't been dug up?" Yulin Blood Eagle said in surprise: "Is it a gold vein? This is a good thing!"
"It's not a gold vein," Mezdra shook his head and said, "It's a mixed gold vein where iron ore and mithril are mixed together. It's difficult to separate them during smelting. You can only make a mixture of mithril and iron.
Alloy ingot."
"Can't you make armor and weapons?" Yulin Blood Eagle asked as he shook his head.
"Why not?" Mezdra said: "If you can refine mithril, use mithril for armor and weapons, draw magic circles or carve runes, then it will be easy to forge sophisticated equipment. It's a pity.
These ores contain too little mithril. They are also difficult to refine and can only be refined into alloy ingots. The equipment that can be forged is only at an excellent level, which is really a pity."
"What? What did you just say? The alloy ingots smelted from these ores can be used to forge excellent equipment? You...you...are you right?" Yulin Blood Eagle's voice was trembling. He really felt that he
The gold nuggets falling from the sky hit me so hard that I almost died of happiness.
"How can you say that?" Mezdra blew his beard and glared: "You can question the dwarf's height, you can question the dwarf's drinking capacity, but you absolutely cannot question the dwarf's knowledge of metal ores."
Yulin Blood Eagle's eyes were filled with stars: "I was wrong about Mezdra, that...that...gold...alloy ingot, is it difficult to practice?"
"It's not difficult! It's as simple as making steel!" Mezdra glared at him and said.
"I...I don't know how to make steel!" Yulin Blood Eagle was about to cry.
Xin said, you know how to practice, of course it is not difficult! You are a geological expert, a smelting expert, a forging master, and an engineering master. With so many auras on your head, even a 12-level typhoon can't blow them away. For you
Simple things are extremely difficult for us! I am just an internet bug and a pest, how can I compare with you!
"You can't, I can! You are my friend, of course I will help you. But I may not have so many dwarves to help you mine!" Mezdra said with some difficulty.
"Don't be afraid, let the Troll Gate dig it!" Yulin Blood Eagle shouted: "Are 1,000 people enough? If not, just 2,000...3,000..." Yulin Blood Eagle said incoherently.
