The ancient baneling leader is dead...
In this way, Shi Jingwei chopped off the insect's head. Immediately afterwards, the puppet commander and Shi Jingwei worked together to turn the insect corpse over with its belly facing up. Shi Jingwei swung his ax to open a gap in the insect corpse's abdomen, and then reached in to dig it out.
"Crash, crash..." After grabbing out a large amount of rotten intestines, organs, blood, and meat, Shi Jingwei finally found a few ancient baneling insect crystals, but they were not big in shape.
"These should be just incidental." Demon Mandrill asked Tu Gong Toad to get some clean water from the toad cauldron to clean the insect crystals, and then said loudly: "Shi Jingwei, dig around again, there may be bigger ones."
Hearing this, Shi Jingwei nodded and signaled the puppet commander to come to help, and they both began to search in the giant insect's open belly.
Not long after, several ancient blasting insect crystals the size of watermelons were taken out one by one, which made the mandrill very excited. It said: "Okay, that's it, look for it again, look for it again."
"Hey, are you still looking for it?" The Earth Palace Toad stared at his swollen eyes and said, "I think we have almost taken out all the insect crystals in the belly of the ancient baneling leader, right?"
"That's not necessarily the case." The demon mandrill said, poking at the insect corpse with the ancient gold ice-breaker in his hand, and then continued: "This is our last prey here. If we don't search carefully, we might miss something. That would be a big loss.”
"Well, you are right." After hearing what the Demon Mandrill said, the Earth Palace Toad also felt that it should be more cautious. It thought about it and then said: "How about letting the puppet soldiers set fire to the corpse and burn all this guy's body?" Can’t the physical body also reveal insect crystals?”
"That's not possible. This insect crystal is no better than ordinary things. If it explodes when encountering high temperatures, it will scare us. It would be an intolerable waste to waste the unfound insect crystals."
The Demon Mandrill said: "I guess we have almost found it. Maybe the Puppet Commander and the Stone Crystal Guard can dig out a few more, so don't use flames to burn corpses unless we have to, unless we are sure that all the crystals in the insect corpses have been taken out." Freed up."
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Tu Gong Toad felt that what Mandrill said made sense and his analysis was correct and thorough, so he agreed.
"Hey, Gu Yu, what are you doing?"
At this moment, the Demonic Mandrill turned around and saw the Snake-headed Ancient Turtle whispering to several one-horned multi-legged worms, as if they were communicating about something. When he heard the Demonic Mandrill calling him, the Ancient Mandrill raised his head and took one of them with him. A fat one-horned worm walked up to them.
"Oooh, ooh."
"What, you said there was something weird about the insect head that was chopped off by Shi Jingwei's axe?" The Demon Mandrill lowered his head and glanced at the insect head that rolled to the side. The Earth Palace Toad also came over and said, "You saw it. ?"
The ancient turtle listened to its question, shook his head, then raised his paw and patted the forehead of the fat one-horned worm beside him, which meant: "This guy told me, saying that there is a strange smell in the worm's skull. "
"Oh, maybe there are still insect crystals in the ancient baneling beetle's head that haven't been taken out. Don't waste it."
The demon mandrill said, hitting the insect's skull with the ancient gold ice-breaker in his hand, "Crack!" The guy's head suddenly shattered into several pieces, "Gululu——" In addition to the red and white brains, there were indeed several Things rolled out.
But the mandrill reached out to pick it up, looked at it and said, "This is not insect crystal, it looks like some kind of ore."
"Let me take a look." As he said that, the Earth Palace Toad picked up the other one. The Snake-headed Ancient Turtle and the One-horned Worm also came over to take a look. Suddenly, the One-horned Worm made a low sound and opened its mouth to bite the soil. Gong Toad grabbed the ore.
"Hey, be careful if you bite my webbed claws." The Earth Palace Toad then threw the ore into the air and said, "If you want to eat it, just catch it."
"Crack!" The next moment, the unicorn worm indeed bit the ore, but the guy just held it in his mouth for a few breaths, and then spat it out.
"Hey, if you don't want to eat, why do you want to grab it?" The mandrill next to him muttered, "What a bad habit."
"Chirp, chirp." Hearing the demonic mandrill's words, the fat one-horned worm shook his head, and then whispered twice toward it and the Earth Palace Toad.
After hearing this guy's description, the eyes of the demon mandrill and the earth palace toad moved, and then looked at each other. It spoke first: "Toad, this guy said that after tasting this ore, he has recognized a familiar smell and can bring out... Now that we find this mine, do you want to take a look?"
"Well, just go."
The Earth Palace Toad thought for a while, and then asked the horned worm a few questions. It nodded and continued: "Now I am sure, let's go. For us, we don't have to take a long way, because we are right on the way out of this cave. We happened to pass by on the way."
"Fat Worm, thank you for telling us this situation." The demonic mandrill smiled and reached out to touch the forehead of the fat one-horned worm. The other man rubbed the mandrill's palm and murmured, as if he was asking for a reward.
"Okay, here you go." The mandrill said, taking out half of the spiritual brick and stuffing it into the other person's mouth. The fat one-horned worm immediately started chewing it happily.
…
A few moments later, the Demon Mandrill, Earth Palace Toad and others rode the snake-skull ancient turtle and hurried to the hidden mine.
"Found it, this is the entrance." Demon Mandrill, the puppet commander, and Shi Jingwei searched around and finally found the entrance to the mine. It allowed everyone to release several balls of fire spirit floating in the air to light up the way forward.
"The front end of this mine tunnel is very narrow. Toad, please ask the little toad to help expand it. It will be more convenient for us when we come out."
"Got it." After hearing this, the Earth Palace Toad nodded, and then summoned the small Earth Toads and gave them some instructions. At this moment, Shi Jingwei and the One-Horned Worm walking in front shouted to signal them. Come and take a look.
"It's that kind of ore." The demonic mandrill picked up a piece and looked at it carefully, and then continued: "The ancient iron ore is of medium to high quality. Zhenwen will definitely like this thing because it has many uses and is easy to smelt."
"Well, let's collect more." The Tugong Toad continued to move forward with the Demon Mandrill while scanning the surrounding environment. It said, "In your opinion, will there be any mineral veins here?"
"So far, we haven't smelled anything about ancient iron veins."
The mandrill's nose twitched a few times, sniffing the surrounding scent carefully, and then said: "I am a 'Master Prospector'. If we don't even notice it, then the chance of deriving mineral veins here is already extremely small. It’s too small.”
"Oh, so that's it?" Tu Gong Toad smiled mysteriously at this moment, then pointed to the end of a tunnel ahead and said: "I said Master Mandrill, what do you see there?"
"Eh? Eh? Eh?" For a moment, a look of doubt appeared in Mandrill's eyes, and then he said: "This is a bit strange. Let's go over and confirm."
