Chapter 85: Mining Expert, Hidden Dangers
After entering the mine, Wen Ning did not rush to pick up the scattered minerals on the ground, but observed the surrounding mine walls.
There were bits of iron ore scattered on it, and they sparkled where the mining lamp shone.
The further you go in, the richer the treasures become. Wen Ning thought about exploring the way first and then collecting them.
The mine tunnel as a whole had a slight downward slope, and the top of the head became higher and higher, eventually stabilizing at about eight meters.
You can't see the end, but there are many branching roads leading in all directions.
Wen Ning didn't plan to go any further and randomly chose a branch of the passage.
"Tin mine!"
Wen Ning went into a passage and saw that the walls were inlaid with some dark blue minerals, with blue and white patterns arranged in vertical rows.
The pickaxe in his hand came in handy. He dug down three pieces in a row and triggered a critical hit.
[Congratulations on obtaining tin ore*4]
"The refinery needs 20 tin ingots, and the cooking machine and sewing machine need 10 each."
What is the conversion rate of tin ingots?
Wen Ning opened the friend list and found Cheng Dingkun, whom he hadn't contacted for a long time, and sent him questions directly.
[Private Chat Channel: How many tin blocks are needed for a tin ingot? 】
After sending the message, Wen Ning dug a few more pieces to be on the safe side.
Hu Zi was on guard at the side, and he looked very nervous since he stepped into the mine.
Cheng Dingkun replied quickly.
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Boss! Long time no see, 7 pieces of tin ore can be synthesized into 1 tin ingot, and 9 pieces of gold ore are required! 】
[Private chat channel: Do you accept orders? 】
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Boss... I may not be able to take it. I have added a base, and now I am a bit too busy to handle the work inside the base. 】
Wen Ning was silent. Now that he had a companion, he could understand.
Just as I was about to close the chat channel, Cheng Dingkun sent another message.
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Boss, you must have coal crystal blocks since you have these two mines! This thing can greatly improve the efficiency of furnaces! Do you have any extra that you can sell to me?
[Private chat channel: It seems that he is really busy. 】
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Hehe, please don’t make fun of me. I only know how to burn the ore. I will try my best to distribute it to you. Just tell me how much you want. 】
Cheng Dingkun was still thinking about Wen Ning's life-saving grace. He was thinking too fast just now, and he rejected too many orders in the past, so he actually rejected Wen Ning.
[Private Chat Channel: Are you adding a base in the same area as yours? 】
Wen Ning changed the subject and started asking about Cheng Dingkun's base.
Cheng Dingkun had no intention of hiding anything and even wanted to get Wen Ning to join him.
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: No, he is my good brother. Originally we were not in the same district. Later he built a base and I became the first member. I thought it was no big deal to join him. But after I joined, a teleportation array appeared in front of my shelter. 】
[Cheng Dingkun 7777: After I walked in according to the instructions, I came out to my brother’s base! 】
[Cheng Dingkun 7777: The base is currently under development. There are only five of us. We mainly rely on selling minerals to collect materials. We need to build the guardrails and walls first. 】
[Cheng Dingkun 7777: I am the only furnace in the entire base. I need to repair the wall before the next disaster comes, so I am working overtime. 】
A deep thought flashed through Wen Ning's eyes. He actually used the teleportation array to go directly to the base establishment area. Then, is it possible to teleport in the opposite direction?
Or will there be a teleportation system in the game in the future?
Cheng Dingkun explained sincerely, and Wen Ning didn't mean to blame him.
She just said she would wait until she collected all the coal crystal blocks.
Wen Ning unexpectedly got news about the base from Cheng Dingkun, and he began to speculate about his friend Cheng Dingkun.
The other party should be a capable person. None of the bases that have been publicly recruiting on the world channel in the past two days have been established.
Just come in, the number of places is limited, first come first served.
Wen Ning felt that building a base would likely require a lot of supplies, and these people might have been deceived into crowdfunding.
He shook his head and remembered that Cheng Dingkun also lived in the mining area.
Since he said there were coal crystal blocks, there should be some in this mine as well.
Tin ore requires more than 200, and gold ore requires nearly 200.
There is still a long way to go!
"Tiger, is there any danger?"
Seeing Hu Zi's serious face, staring into the depths of the mine, Wen Ning asked cautiously.
"Ao!" I didn't feel any danger, but I didn't like it here, it was too gloomy.
Although he said he didn't like it, he still guarded Wen Ning diligently.
When Wen Ning heard this, he turned around and got to work, digging it out as quickly as possible.
The walls are full of potholes, and minerals are dug out from time to time.
From time to time, there were critical hits ringing in my ears.
【bite! A flash of inspiration! You dug up a Coal Crystal Block! 】
Um?
A flash of inspiration?
He stretched out his hand, and a lump of pure black coal weighing about two kilograms appeared in his hand.
Under the illumination of the mining lamp, the surface shines with a warm luster, the texture is very clear, and the faults are distinct.
It’s good coal at first glance!
Wen Ning looked inside the tin mine he had dug. After all the tin was dug out, he discovered that there was a layer of black coal hidden inside!
I just dug up a coal mine, which triggered this flash of inspiration.
"Coal miner! Open the liver!"
Wen Ning immediately threw himself into the state of a miner and dug all the way to the bottom along the passage.
【bite! A flash of inspiration! You dug up a Coal Crystal Block! 】
[Trigger a critical hit!] Get ordinary coal blocks*2】
Various prompt sounds came on at the same time. An hour later, Wen Ning looked at the 240 pieces of tin ore, 200 pieces of coal ore, and 30 pieces of coal crystal stones in his backpack and smiled.
“It’s so cool!”
Hu Zi looked at the woman who was overjoyed at the end of the mine and felt a little confused.
But how can Hu Zi understand the joy of shopping for zero yuan?
Shaking his head, Hu Zi turned around and continued to stare at the deepest passage. The yin energy in this mine was a bit heavy, and something was always wrong!
Wen Ning walked out of the passage covered in dust and dirt, turned around and entered another passage that was shining with golden light.
"This looks like gold!"
【Congratulations on winning gold nugget*1】
It's really gold!
"Kid! You've worked so hard. When we get back, we'll find a goldsmith to make you a 999 pure gold collar!"
"Oh!" Thank you!
The durability of the fine iron pickaxe in his hand had just dropped by one third when Wen Ning dug up another piece of gold.
Gold mines do not produce critical hits.
Because it was a piece of gold ore, Wen Ning had to dig twice before he could dig it out.
Without critical hits, the work became boring and complicated. Wen Ning's energy value dropped in the middle of the work, so Wen Ning directly took out a synthesized energy potion.
[Advanced Energy Potion: After drinking it, you can immediately recover 30 energy points. 】
【Congratulations on winning gold nugget*1】
“199…200, done!”
Wen Ning didn't want to dig the coal at the back for the time being.
This gold mine consumes both energy and the durability of a fine iron pickaxe.
These 200 pieces of gold ore caused Wen Ning's energy value to drop to 65 again, and the durability of his fine iron pickaxe was only 10 points left.
There are two advanced energy potions left.
Wen Ning didn't plan to waste time here.
"Cub, go home, it's getting late."
The rest will come later when you have time.
If Cheng Dingkun could give her some ingredients, she might be able to make a food processor tonight!
"Oh!" Okay, I'll go behind.
"good!"
It felt good to be protected. Wen Ning felt relieved and accepted it calmly.
Just as Wen Ning turned around, something flashed in the light of the mining lamp and caught Wen Ning's attention.
Wen Ning stepped forward hesitantly and looked up to observe carefully.
"Is this... snake skin!?"
