Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Take Away the Iron Rail and Mine Cart!
Cao Xing’s eyes lit up. This thing was really valuable!
Some mechanical creations in this world required energy to operate, and this energy came from [Magic Energy Stones].
In the later stages, [Energy Towers] and some other constructions also needed [Magic Energy Stones] to supply power.
This thing, like Elemental Crystals, was a hard currency.
Cao Xing nodded and said, “Assam, Andrew, take all the Magic Stone Torches down for me.”
...
The two complied and removed the torches one by one.
[Magic Stone Torch +1]
[Magic Stone Torch +1]
The System Prompts continually rang in Cao Xing’s ears.
Then, Cao Xing saw the iron rail on the ground and the mining carts lying to the side.
[Abandoned Mining Cart (White): Mining tools of the Mole Man.]
(You can decompose it for 8 pieces of iron, or bring it back to the territory and repair it using 4 pieces of iron.)
[Iron Rail (White): Can be used to build a rail to speed up mineral transportation.]
(It can be dismantled for 4 pieces of iron.)
Cao Xing’s eyes shone brightly at once.
These two were also good stuff!
As long as there were enough iron rails, a track could even be built around the territory and connected to the mine.
This way, the mining speed could be significantly accelerated.
Take them away! Take them all away!
Cao Xing directly stored all these mining carts and iron rails.
[Obtained Abandoned Mining Cart (White) *1]
[Obtained Iron Rail (White) *1]
[Obtained…]
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.
From the entrance area, they collected a total of 17 [Magic Stone Torches], 3 [Abandoned Mining Carts], and 15 pieces of [Iron Rail].
(1 piece of iron rail = 1 meter in length.)
The harvest was quite nice.
Cao Xing continued leading the team forward.
After walking for a while, they heard the “clang, clang” sounds of chiseling ahead.
Upon closer inspection, there were dozens of small-statured creatures with short limbs and mouse-like heads.
[Mole Man Miner: Level 5]
[Race: Beast]

[Attack Power: 41~45]
[Attributes: Power 21, Agility 15, Spirit 18, Constitution 22]

[Talent: Night Vision.]
…
Upon seeing Andrew and others approaching,
the group of Mole Men immediately emitted ‘chirp chirp chirp’ threatening sounds.
The Mole Man Supervisor swung the long whip in its hand.
Snap!
“They’re intruders, go take them out!”
Afraid of the supervisor’s whip, the group of Mole Men picked up their mining pickaxes and charged at Cao Xing and his party.
“Chirp! Chirp chirp chirp!”
No need for Cao Xing to say more.
Assam and Andrew, along with Frost Wolf Winter, charged forward.
“Roar!”
The narrow mine was instantly filled with three gigantic figures.
Andrew led the way, like a mad bear, rampaging through the ground, sending Mole Men flying.
Bang! Bang bang!
[-173]
[-178]
[-164]
Damage numbers floated up one by one.
With Andrew’s terrifying power, the impact damage alone was enough to cause these Mole Men to lose a large amount of blood volume.
Those Mole Men who fell to the ground hadn’t even had the chance to get back up before Assam’s longsword pierced through.
Puff!
[-437!]
This sword from Assam pierced its head directly, causing critical damage.
[Your subject: Assam slayed Mole Man lv5, gained 50 points of experience value]
[You gained 25 points of experience value…]
Meanwhile, Frost Wolf Winter pinned a Mole Man down and began a frenzied tear.
“Chirp chirp! Chirp chirp!”
In a single clash, the Mole Man Miners were routed.
What’s more terrifying was,
a flash of cold brilliance continued to flicker in the darkness.
Every time the cold brilliance flared, it brought with it a terrifying damage number.
[-704]
[-753]
[-1614!]
One after another, the Mole Men had no chance to scream before being slain on the spot.
[Your subject: Sarah Blade Dance slayed Mole Man lv6, gained 60 points of experience value]
[You gained 30 points of experience value…]
Experience value prompts continued to appear.
Cao Xing exclaimed with delight from the rear, “Wow! Such damage!”
“No wonder she’s a level 20 Elite Assassin, it’s just like cutting through butter!”
Sarah’s attack power was formidable. Cao Xing couldn’t stop laughing from the back.
He and Liu Muxue stood in the rear, not even needing to lift a finger.
The number of Mole Men gradually decreased.
Even though there were many of them, they couldn’t withstand such a terrifying kill speed.
Even the eyes of that Mole Man Supervisor showed fear.
Experience value prompts kept chiming.
Before long, a white light rose from Liu Muxue’s body.
She excitedly said, “Axing, I leveled up!”
“Congratulations,” Cao Xing replied with a smile.
He glanced at Liu Muxue’s current attributes.
[Survivor: Liu Muxue]
[Race: Blue Star Human Clan]
[Level: 3 20/2000]
[Detailed Attributes: Click to expand]
Cao Xing nodded.
After leveling up to level 3, Liu Muxue’s attributes improved a lot again.
With the equipment on her and all those buffs,
her defensive power now was much stronger than some level seven or eight wild monsters.
Liu Muxue softly said, “Axing, the system just prompted me that I entered the top twenty of the leaderboard. It seems more people are reaching level 3 now.”
Cao Xing said, “It’s okay. The initial level-ups are quick, but the difficulty increases later.”
“With our speed, ordinary survivors shouldn’t be able to compare.”
Liu Muxue nodded gently.
Cao Xing took a look at his experience value.
Level 4 41%
He was still ranked first on the leaderboard.
The likes of Zhou Bo and Fang Long were catching up as well.
Liu Muxue looked at the battlefield in front, then tentatively asked, “Axing, can I also go and fight?”
Cao Xing saw the seriousness on her face and knew it was indeed time for Liu Muxue to get some experience.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
Moreover, with her current defensive power, she could certainly withstand a Mole Man Miner’s attacks.
So, Cao Xing nodded and said, “Go ahead, Muxue. Just remember to be careful.”
“Alright, Axing, I’ll be careful,” Liu Muxue took a deep breath, holding a shield in her left hand and a longsword in her right, then charged forward.
She quickly faced a Mole Man Miner.
The Mole Man opened its mouth full of sharp teeth, wielding the Iron Shovel, and fiercely attacked Liu Muxue’s shield.
“Bang! Bang bang!”
The Mole Man Miner swung the Iron Shovel relentlessly.
Liu Muxue gritted her teeth, struggling to withstand the enemy’s attacks.
[-8]
[-13]
Small damage numbers floated above her head.
However, the next second, her life value was completely restored by the [Ice Healing Skill].
[+10]
[+10]
Green healing numbers floated up.
