"Shua"!
There was an invisible fluctuation at the entrance of the abandoned mine, and the two dwarf heavy infantry who entered the mine returned to their territory.
The armor on their bodies is intact, and there are no traces of battle. They probably did not encounter any attacks in the mine.
Through the feedback from the dwarf heavy infantry, Chu Xin had a general understanding of the situation at the entrance to the abandoned mine.
No enemies appeared at the entrance of the mine, but the lighting inside was extremely poor. Unless you had night vision, you could not see clearly what was going on inside.
However, this problem is not a big problem for Chu Xin.
He himself has the ability of night vision, and the undead do not need to rely on their eyes. Their eyes have long been gone, and they rely more on the perception of soul fire.
It may be that the dwarves are the most affected by the darkness, but they are not needed in the battle. They are brought here more for mining.
At the same time, the return of the dwarf heavy infantry also allowed Chu Xin to verify that it was possible to retreat at any time in the abandoned mine.
After confirming this information, Chu Xin felt confident and began to organize the team to enter the abandoned mine.
The first ones to enter were the tall hateful warriors, holding huge shields in front of them like city walls.
Their tall size and the special physique of the undead make the Abominable Warriors have stronger overall defensive capabilities than the dwarf hoplites.
In the other hand of the hateful warrior, he held a ferocious and bloody long-handled mace. This weapon, which ordinary people had to hold twice, could be easily lifted with one hand.
Following closely behind was the team of bronze skeletons led by General Skeleton. These skeletons had been transformed from the original sword and shield skeletons into skeleton spearmen.
During the day today, the dwarf blacksmiths were not idle. They created a large number of three-star quality weapons, re-armed these skeletons, and replaced some of the scrap metal in their hands.
Friday rides a skeleton horse, parallel to the skeleton general, and behind it are long-range strike forces such as corpse monks, skeleton mages, and skeleton archers.
Chu Xin, on the other hand, fell at the very back, entering with Bronzebeard and other dwarf blacksmiths, dwarf miners, fighting dwarves, and 10 dwarf heavy infantry.
Bronzebeard, the hidden six-star master, can also be regarded as an insurance policy.
Chu Xin has not yet tested its specific combat effectiveness, but since he is a blacksmith as his main occupation, he is probably better at forging, and fighting is just incidental.
Bronzebeard has his own unique weapon, a hammer burning with flames, so red.
Cao Tuan and Tie Lin accompanied them, while Rosa was left in the territory and was responsible for the security of the territory.
Although the Zerg have not attacked in recent days, we cannot take it lightly. Necessary vigilance is still needed.
Watching the darkness swallow up the skeleton mage in front of him little by little, Chu Xin took steps and stepped into the entrance of the abandoned mine.
When the vision dimmed, without much visual change, Chu Xin came to a gloomy and dark mine smoothly.
After a brief period of discomfort, his vision quickly adjusted to the scene in front of him.
What appeared in front of us was a spacious mine room, with a dark mine tunnel at the end, extending inwards to an unknown direction.
It can be seen that there were traces of fierce battles in the mine. There are dead bones lying everywhere underground, silently telling the story of the fierce battles.
Some pitted mining and battle traces on the walls of the mine room have become dim over time, and some messy spider webs can still be seen from time to time.
It can be felt that this mine has been abandoned for some years.
The skeleton general commanded the undead team to form a defensive formation. Chu Xin was not in a hurry to start. After waiting for a while, the dwarf miner captain with a white fluorite mining cap on his head finally came in.
This is the dwarf miner with basic ore prospecting skills. Compared with his peers, he has certain analytical and exploration abilities, so he was appointed by Chu Xin as the captain of the five-man team.
The dwarf miner captain leaned against the wall and observed for a while, and said: "Report to the lord, this should be a limestone mine. The main products produced are iron ore, rock gold ore, copper ore, and quartz ore. You see, these limestones This is the best evidence."
"Huh? Gray rock?" Chu Xin looked at the gray-white gravel picked out by the dwarf miner captain, and his voice rose a little higher.
The cement in his territory still lacks the last main ingredient in its formula, which is limestone.
"Yes, this kind of limestone is a very common stone layer structure. In addition, it is relatively loose and has little value, so few people mine it. They are signs of limestone mineral deposits. If they appear on a large scale, it is basically certain that this vein is a limestone vein. ." As he spoke, the dwarf miner captain exerted slight force on his hands, and the gray rock was crushed into powder by him and fell from his fingers.
Should I say you are powerful, or is this gray rock too scummy?
Chu Xin didn't care so much and immediately ordered: "You five, just stay here and mine the limestone."
He left five fighting dwarves behind. With the development of the territory, the strength of the two stars was somewhat unsatisfactory, and the fighting dwarves had been completely demoted to miners.
In terms of mining, even if these combat dwarves are not professional miners, they are not necessarily worse than professional miners of other races when it comes to mining.
After asking the dwarf miner captain for his opinion, Chu Xin left a dwarf miner here to lead and guide.
Mining does not mean picking up a pickaxe and digging hard. The structure of the mineral layer and the stability of the mine cave need to be considered. Chu Xin does not want to finish exploring and come back to see a buried ruins. .
Compared with fighting dwarves, dwarf miners are more professional after all and will not make such low-level mistakes.
At this moment, there was a sudden "crash" sound, and the bones lying on the ground got up one after another.
It turns out that these seemingly inconspicuous bones are actually undead.
"Hmph!" General Skeleton snorted coldly, and an invisible force of shock emitted.
"A roar!"
The withered bones lay down again with fear.
You can't afford to offend, there are high-star undead, and they give snacks to people after they are resurrected.
Hurry up and pretend to be dead, hoping you can't see me!
With this thought, the newly revived skeletons fell into a deep sleep.
Friday held his head high, feeling the intimidating power that the Skeleton General just exuded. This ability is something it has not yet mastered.
High-star undead have a natural deterrent to low-star undead, but most of them are passive. Active deterrence techniques like Skeleton General are still on the way to learning on Friday.
The Skeleton General knelt down and picked up a skeleton.
The next second, the soul fire lit up in the skeleton that was pretending to be dead, and it started to tremble.
Under the intimidation of Skeleton General Wende, they simply couldn't hide.
This is a skeleton of white bones, the lowest level of the undead. At this time, the soul fire is trembling rapidly, and it looks very scary.
"Can we communicate?" Chu Xin asked.
Friday shook his head. He was a white-bones skeleton. He was so confused that he couldn't understand anything, so he couldn't ask anything.
Unless it is a high-level undead with the ability to read souls, it can directly forcefully read the opponent's memory.
Sure enough, after a brief communication, the Skeleton General shook his head and swallowed up the opponent's soul fire in one gulp.
"Clean it up!" Chu Xin ordered. The dwarves in the mine are going to mine next. Keeping these white bones and skeletons is a disaster.
A five-star skeleton general might not dare to make a sneak attack, but a two-star combat dwarf might not.
There were more than thirty withered bones in the mine room, mostly white skeletons, and there were also one or two iron skeletons among them, which were devoured by the undead under Friday's command in a few strokes.
"It seems that this place should be a mine occupied by the undead." Chu Xin glanced at it and had a rough idea.
Most races are unwilling to hide in relatively closed and dark places like mines. Except for underground races such as cavemen, there are more undead races such as skeletons. There may be other races, but there are very few. .
Dark creatures like vampires and werewolves may admire darkness, but they will never live in such a harsh place.
After getting rid of the undead in the mine room, Chu Xin left two dwarf heavy infantry guards behind and led the team further inside.
After stepping into the gloomy mine tunnel, the space began to shrink rapidly, leaving only a distance of about four to five meters, which could barely accommodate three hateful warriors walking side by side at the same time.
On both sides of the mine tunnel, the undead disguised as dead bones were no longer seen. I don’t know if they were there in the first place, or they retreated deep into the depths when they realized something was wrong.
There is a winding track on the ground, which is used for transporting mine carts. From time to time, you can also see some wooden frames that fix the mine holes.
Judging from the overall style and situation, the dwarf miner captain's analysis was correct. This mine is just a relatively common type of mine and its value is not high.
But this does not mean that the opponent he faces is weak. No one knows what is hidden deep down.
After walking a few hundred meters in, the entire mine tunnel began to trend slowly downhill.
At this time, Chu Xin also began to encounter some abandoned carts in the mine tunnels. These were metal mine carts that once transported ore.
Tools are a good thing, otherwise it would be difficult to transport the ore up bit by bit with manpower alone.
Most minecarts are empty, but there are exceptions.
"Wait!" Chu Xin stopped the team and came to the leaning mine cart on the side of the road.
This car was loaded with ore. With a wave of his hand, Chu Xin collected all the ore inside into the warehouse.
Iron ore*26, copper ore*19, stone ore*20.
Although it's not much, it's cool to pick it up for free.
Sure enough, the essence of human beings is free prostitution. Compared with the ore obtained through hard work, this kind of free pleasure feels different and much better.
If one could pick up a hundred or eighty mine carts like this, it would be no worse than the little golden man working hard outside to collect.
Suddenly, Chu Xin became interested in this mine of little value.
I don’t know how far I walked along the transportation track. Suddenly, in the darkness, a sound broke through the air!
"Enemy attack!" Skeleton General Wende warned.
"Bang bang"!
There was the sound of a hard object hitting in the darkness, and the attack was easily blocked by the shield of the abhorrent warrior who looked like a city wall.
"Everyone, be careful, it's the spear thrown by the skeleton spear thrower!" Skeleton General Wende looked past the tall figure of the hateful warrior, saw his opponent in the darkness clearly, and warned.
The Skeleton Spear Thrower is an undead of about three to four stars. Although it is a long-range undead, its range is very close, which is more powerful than throwing a spear with one hand.
But for the thick-skinned and rugged abomination warriors, it was a bit unsatisfying, and even the shields in their hands were not penetrated.
But the other party dares to attack, which is not a good phenomenon.
When low-level undead face high-level undead, unless the camp has undead that are not inferior to this side, they will basically not have the courage to resist.
Therefore, this means that the opposite side also has undead with at least a five-star strength level, commanding behind the scenes.
Wende quickly commanded to start a counterattack. The hateful warriors pushed forward, and the entire team pushed forward directly.
In the narrow terrain of the mine tunnel, the role of the wall of the hateful warriors was maximized.
The entire mine tunnel trembled slightly as they ran.
The skeleton archers and other long-range forces remained unmoved. The abhorred warriors were tall and blocked their own attacks while resisting the opponent's attacks. However, the undead of the magic system were free to attack.
However, Wende chose to hide their power in the team. A few skeleton spear throwers that were not a big threat were not enough to expose all their trump cards.
Wende was directing and explaining to Friday, analyzing the meaning of what he did.
Friday is about remembering it carefully. It is very smart and can understand many things at once.
In time, perhaps, Friday can become a qualified undead war commander.
Chu Xin did not interfere at all in this process, but his spirit remained tense and did not relax because the skeleton spear thrower was easily suppressed.
In the mine, the map cannot be opened, and the golden villain naturally cannot play its role.
If you don't know your opponent clearly, and your own life is involved, you have to be more cautious.
However, I believe that with the combination of grass balls and iron scales, there should be no big problem. If you can't beat them, there is absolutely no chance that you can't run away.
Unless there is an undead with seven stars and upwards squatting in this mine.
Chu Xin couldn't believe it was possible. After all, the undead with seven stars and above had high IQs and would not wrong themselves so much.
In the darkness, the tall figure of the hateful warrior looked like an advancing tank in the mine tunnel that was only four meters high.
Many undead followed behind the hateful warriors, and the infantry followed the tanks and charged together.
Facing such a powerful attack, the opponent began to retreat. Chu Xin breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that a few hateful warriors would rush out from the opponent to fight hard.
Retreating means that the opponent's strength is extremely limited and he is not sure he can beat him, so he wants to hide.
It’s just that I don’t know how big the mine is. If the mine tunnel is too complicated and the opponent is like a mouse, hiding in the mine, Chu Xin may not be able to defeat the opponent if he continues to waste it.
However, he has a way. The grass group is riding on the iron scale, one step ahead of the team, and re-arms to attack!
