Chapter 1026 Fire Crystal Mine
Zhou Xu was satisfied with Chi Lian's understanding.
During this period, Zhang Xuemei was working near the volcano. After receiving the news, she rushed over immediately.
Looking at the huge size of Chi Lian, the team led by Zhang Xuemei were all frightened and cried out in surprise.
During this process, Zhang Xuemei quickly calmed down when she saw Zhou Xu standing there calmly.
But he was still a little scared. After looking at Chi Lian for a few times, he quickly trotted to Zhou Xu's side.
"Your Majesty, what is that giant python?"
"That's Chi Lian, a supernatural being I just subdued on this island."
After briefly explaining Chi Lian's identity, Zhou Xu quickly turned the topic to business.
"The vein of the Fire Crystal should be in Chi Lian's lair. Send a group of people over here to dig it up."
Having said this, Zhou Xu paused.
"Oh, right, find another team of people, find a suitable place, and dig a new nest for Chi Lian."
Zhou Xu didn't forget about this matter and immediately arranged it.
During this period, Chi Lian also understood Zhou Xu's words, and it was not idle either.
In fact, it is much more efficient than humans to dig a new nest on its own.
In this regard, it did not hesitate to use its labor. After the construction team found the right location, it started digging before the team started working.
Zhou Xu smiled when he heard the news.
"It is real."
There was no hesitation after that. He just called back all the men and concentrated the labor to dig up the vein of fire crystal stone.
Unlike the previous mining, now they only need to dig down along the Chilian cave. In fact, the tunnel was already connected at the beginning, which not only saved them trouble, but also saved a lot of energy.
The entire nest was quickly dug open. At that moment, Zhou Xu, who walked inside, clearly felt that the invisible flame energy seemed to have formed a heat wave, constantly hitting his body.
"My goodness, if this place were in a novel about cultivating immortals, wouldn't it be a paradise?"
If I practice in a place like this and improve my strength, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort? With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu walked into the nest.
【Make a fire! 】
Zhou Xu really didn't expect that this trick would come in handy so soon.
With the help of the light in his hand, the scene inside the nest was so dazzling that he was dazzled.
At this moment, there was a large amount of fire crystals piled up inside the nest, almost forming a small hill.
In addition, many fire crystals can be seen on the surrounding walls.
The entire nest was filled with rich fire energy. Taking a deep breath, Zhou Xu felt that the circulation of the mantra energy in his body became faster.
This made him want to build a training room here.
On the contrary, Silk and the others who followed in couldn't help but frown.
During this period, some of the ordinary workers around could not help but cough violently.
Zhou Xu heard the voice and looked back subconsciously.
The faces of the workers who were coughing were slightly red.
Seeing this, Zhou Xu also made a prompt decision.
"Everyone get out first!"
After the group exited the cave, Zhou Xu hurried to check on the conditions of several workers.
"Quick, bring some water."
Seeing the water handed over by their Majesty, the workers were flattered and expressed their gratitude one after another, but their voices were hoarse.
After drinking some water and resting for a while, he finally calmed down and the dark red on his face slowly faded away.
"What's going on?"
This situation made Zhou Xu frown.
After all, he himself was fine, and he even felt that this cave was a good place for Feng Shui.
On the other hand, Silke had some ideas.
"It's probably because the concentration of flame energy inside this cave is too high. If it lasts for a long time, it might cause damage to the body."
At this point, Silk paused.
"In fact, let alone ordinary people, even I felt a bit of heat in my body after staying there for a while. It's not just heat, but the energy in the cave is absorbed into my body and then burns my body."
Hearing this, the other elven knights also nodded.
The strength of these elven knights has not yet reached the Hundred Refinements Realm, so the feeling is more obvious than Silk's, and the impact is undoubtedly greater.
After hearing this, Zhou Xu had a general idea.
[Could it be that the attributes are incompatible? ]
[Silk and the others are obviously of wind attribute, and the energy here is all of fire attribute. After absorbing it into the body, the energies of different attributes repel each other, causing negative effects? ]
[But I don’t seem to be in any trouble…]
Not sure if it was his talent as an 'evolved leader' that was at work, but Zhou Xu felt that he had a particularly strong ability to adapt.
Take the mantra for example. So far, there is no mantra that is incompatible with him.
At the same time, the mantra in his body also has multiple attributes, and there is no rejection.
However, Zhou Xu also knew that he was a special case and could not be calculated according to normal circumstances.
The current situation undoubtedly made him a little troubled.
If the strong flame energy is harmful to the miners' bodies, then what should we do with the mining of the fire crystal? We can't just leave it to Chi Lian, right?
It seems that it is not impossible...
No matter what, Zhou Xu still planned to conduct some tests first.
So far, this is just their speculation after all. The details are still unclear and no conclusion can be drawn.
With this idea in mind, Zhou Xu found ten workers and asked them to go down together.
This is to facilitate comparison and avoid the influence of some individual differences.
Following Zhou Xu's instructions, after a series of tests, the situation was roughly understood.
Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary healthy person stays down there for a long time, the most he or she will feel is the stuffy environment and the body becomes hot as well, which is just like staying outside in the sun on a 40-degree day.
Once you start working, this situation will begin to worsen as you become physically exhausted and exhausted.
The workers who had been there before had dark red faces and were even coughing because they had just finished their work, digging the cave, and were very tired.
But after leaving the cave, drinking some water and resting for a while, I calmed down.
Among them, drinking water is very important.
During the test, Zhou Xu found that as long as the workers replenished water in time, they could alleviate this symptom to a great extent, thereby extending the working time of the workers underground.
In other words, the impact can be minimized as long as workers are provided with drinking water and their work and rest times are properly arranged.
Of course, because of the impact of this environment, the workers cannot work for a long time, so the mining efficiency of the fire crystal is bound to be compromised. There is nothing we can do about it.
