Chapter 1022 New Ore
The glimmer of light caught by his eyes cheered up Zhou Xu, who had been busy for a quarter, and he hurried forward to confirm it.
Then, a finger-sized stone came into Zhou Xu's sight.
Among a pile of rubble, this stone is really not conspicuous, and from the outside, it looks no different from ordinary stones.
Zhou Xu originally wanted to use the "Eyes of Secrets" to directly confirm the attribute panel, but for some reason, the attribute panel could not be popped up.
Holding the stone in his hand, Zhou Xu maintained the "Eyes of Secrets" and scanned the surroundings again, trying to see if there was anything he had missed.
After confirming that there was none, he waved his hand.
"Let's go back to the camp first."
At this moment, they were already completely deep into the island.
After previous aerial reconnaissance, they can basically confirm that the large volcano is basically located in the center of the island.
Zhang Xuemei said this situation is normal.
He believes that this island was most likely formed by a volcanic eruption many years ago.
At this moment, Zhou Xu and his team arrived at the foot of the volcano, which means that they have arrived at the central area of the island.
This location is almost ten days away from the village, even if you take the shortest straight line.
In order to provide the exploration team headed by Zhou Xu with a place to rest, and also to enable them to better carry out the exploration mission, Zhou Xu specially assigned himself a logistics team.
The logistics team is not large in number and is mainly responsible for setting up camp and cooking. There are also some professionals who help them solve problems.
This includes a polishing craftsman.
After returning to the camp, Zhou Xu directly handed the stone to the other party and asked him to polish it.
It was obviously not the first time for the other party to do this. He took the stone and immediately began to polish the surface of the stone with skillful movements.
Their Majesty has already confirmed that there is 100% something inside this stone.
This makes the polishing craftsmen dare not polish too hard at the beginning, and they can only do it slowly, bit by bit.
This took him a lot of effort.
"The meat is coming out! The meat is coming out!"
As the last layer of stone covering the surface was polished off, the craftsman simply washed the stone in a basin of water nearby.
Then, under the stone skin, a crystal luster was emitted accompanied by natural light! Hearing the noise, Zhou Xu hurried over, took the stone from the craftsman, and examined it with two fingers.
At this moment, the polishing work is far from over, and the stone has only had a window opened.
But through this window, the texture of the crystal stone inside has already appeared in front of Zhou Xu!
The entire crystal has an orange-yellow color and looks quite eye-catching.
Without thinking too much, Zhou Xu used the crystal stone and activated the "Eye of Secrets" again.
This time the panel finally popped up.
Recalling that he was unable to confirm the situation of the panel before, Zhou Xu pondered for a moment and thought that this might be because the crystal was completely wrapped under the stone skin and he could not see the crystal itself.
Therefore, the 'Eye of Peering' has no way of identifying it.
Only now, after opening the window of the stone and revealing its true form, can we finally carry out further confirmation.
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Xu's attention quickly focused on the panel that popped up in front of him.
Name: Fire Crystal Introduction: A special crystal containing flame energy, which can be used to make some special attribute equipment.
This introduction can be said to be very concise and clear.
When Zhou Xu saw that the name of this crystal was Fire Crystal, he subconsciously thought of the volcano.
【Is it because of that volcano? 】
While thinking, Zhou Xu handed the fire crystal to the craftsman and signaled him to polish the remaining stone skin clean.
After successfully opening a window in the fire crystal stone, the craftsman undoubtedly became more confident when carrying out the subsequent polishing, which greatly improved the overall efficiency.
Soon, the fire crystal stone, which had been peeled off and thoroughly polished, was delivered to Zhou Xu.
When I first found it, it was as big as a finger with the stone skin. Now after polishing it, it is only the size of a peanut.
The moment you hold it in your hand, you don't feel the cold touch of crystal, but instead a slight warmth.
[Is it because of that flame energy? ]
As this thought flashed through his mind, Zhou Xu subconsciously pinched the fire crystal stone between two fingers, placed it in front of his eyes, and looked up at the sky.
Based on the color observed through the window, Zhou Xu once thought that the fire crystal was orange-yellow in color as a whole.
But now after it was completely polished, he realized that he had been wrong before.
The crystal on the outside of this fire crystal is not so much orange-yellow as it is a transparent crystal with an exaggerated degree of transparency.
Under this premise, in the very center of the crystal, Zhou Xu actually saw an orange-yellow flame, not knowing whether it was a pattern or the so-called flame energy.
The inner flame is orange-yellow, while the outer flame is a lighter bright yellow.
The transparent crystal that wraps around the flame is also dyed with color due to the flame.
Anyway, after sharp crystal and diamond, their Great Zhou finally obtained a special ore that can be used to make enchanted equipment.
At the same time, the directionality of this fire crystal can be said to be very clear, and it has its own fire attribute.
[If I use this fire crystal to make a weapon, can it also have a fire attack function? ]
Zhou Xu obviously could not get an answer to this question now. He could only wait until the fire crystal was mined in large quantities and then sent to the rear for smelting and forging before seeing the results.
The most urgent thing at the moment is to determine the exact location of the fire crystal vein.
The location is most likely near a volcano, and they really don't dare to dig randomly in this area.
Taking this into consideration, Zhou Xu did not hesitate and directly asked someone to call Zhang Xuemei, who was also working on the island, over and explained the situation to her.
Zhang Xuemei took the peanut-sized fire crystal with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
After all, her main job now is to find various mineral veins and obtain ores for Da Zhou.
But over the years, she has never found a single special mineral like this one.
While lamenting that this special mineral is indeed rare, I also felt a little bit weird.
Zhou Xu didn't bother to care about Zhang Xuemei's inner struggle. After waiting for someone to arrive, he directly explained his concerns to them.
After listening to it, Zhang Xuemei had a basic idea in her mind and said that she would be the one to handle the matter later.
He no longer had to worry about anything. Zhou Xu was very satisfied. This was how a valuable subordinate should behave.
