Chapter 316: Chapter 195: The secret hidden beneath the surface, scavenging for Black Luminous Ore _3
[As a noble ’Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon’, and also the overseer of the drudges, what command are you going to give them?]
[1. Get off your asses and start mining, I couldn’t sleep at this age if I didn’t mine!]
[2. You, yes, you too, fetch me a female half-dragon and polish my spear!]
[3. I am going to conduct a tour of the canyon, who will guide me?]
Given three choices, one should definitely pick the shortest one, a necessary skill for academic failures.
[You loudly inform several mixed-blood guards that you are about to tour the canyon and it would be best if they could capture the two murderer drudges who have run away...]
[Mixed-Blood Guards all volunteer eagerly, you select a guard that is most pleasing to your eyes to escort you.]
[The Mixed-Blood Guard guides you silently while he whispers carefully to you, explaining that you, overseer, are from the Dragon’s Nest, from the other end of the canyon, and you might not be familiar with the area.]
[There are only five mines in this canyon, each overseer controls a mine and its slaves.]
[These two audacious scum who brutally murdered the old overseer--they completely searched through every inch of the mine and the canyon, but failed to find any trace of these two.]
[Both scum would have probably concealed themselves out of guilt, to die in the outer world’s fog...]
[Noble-blooded Apostle, are you going to inspect the five mines or visit the caves of the other overseers?]
Lin Xun squints his eyes, unhesitatingly choosing the latter option.
If the assets of two overseers are insufficient, kill a few more overseers.
Collect every mineable rock, and absorb using it all at once within the Rest Page would be the most time-efficient and effortless solution.
[You interrupt the continual chatter of the Mixed-Blood Guard, rebuking him harshly for being nosy and claim that you are going to visit the other overseers to foster friendly relations.]
[The Mixed-Blood Guard immediately shuts up and lowers his head, leading you to the caves of the other overseers.]
[...]
[Soon enough, you arrive at the entrance of a clean and tidy cave, which is guarded by a bunch of Mixed-Blood Half-Dragons.]
[Seeing you coming for a visit, they dare not stop you.]
[You step alone into the cave...]
[...]
About ten minutes later, Lin Xun leaves the cave satisfactorily.
The overseer’s collection is quite rich here, he is able to double his collection of minerals instantly.
Lin Xun doesn’t stop and asks the guard to continue leading him to the next overseer’s cave for a visit.
...
[The lewd face of the overseer suddenly becomes stagnant, he twitches twice, then slowly collapses...]
[You have defeated ’Up-Looking Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon’, gaining a small increase in experience.]
[You have obtained a ’Small Star God Statue’ (waste product).]
[The female Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon next to you is terrified, about to scream, but your shiny sword is already being thrust into her mouth...]
[You have defeated ’Up-Looking Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon’, gaining a small increase in experience.]
[After a short search in the living room, you discover a hidden door. Inside sits the overseer’s collection and by a rough estimate, you find close to 300 ’Black Glossy Poisonous Rock’.]
[Do you want to put these rocks in your bag?]
After taking out the last overseer, Lin Xun has over a thousand rocks in his pocket.
[Suddenly, a dull bell toll coming from outside the cave can be heard. You listen attentively, the bell rings twice.]
[While the familiar bell toll echoes, a memory in the shell slightly resurfaces...]
[As a Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon of the highest nobility amongst the dragon men, and a respected overseer among the mixed-blood dragon men, the meaning of two bell rings is deeply imprinted in your mind.]
[You should go and collect the rocks now!]
