Magus Tech Chapter 528: Grey moonstone mining area
In a blink of an eye, a whole day passed, and there was no news from Narid.
Two days passed and there was still no news from Nerid.
After three full days passed, there was still no news from Narid, and Li Cha no longer had any hope in his heart.
In fact, this is also expected. Regarding the rarity of molybdenite, when he described it before, he did not exaggerate at all. At least it is very difficult to obtain in Florence, and Sherlock does not have it.
It took him nearly a week to find it. If Narid wanted to find it within half a week, besides hard work, he also needed some luck.
And luck is obviously not so easy to get, there is no accident, the other party should not be able to find molybdenite.
In this case, he may have to think of a way in the underground black market or some informal auctions. After all, molybdenite is a very important ore in his research, and it is really difficult to do without it.
Under the setting sun, Li Cha paced in the courtyard, thinking.
……
In a blink of an eye, it was dark.
Narid appeared on the outskirts of a mine more than a dozen miles away from Florence, hiding her body under a tree and looking inside the mine. The mine is very large, and the lights of several oil lamps are flickering, the light is dim, and the atmosphere looks a bit gloomy.
Narid was not afraid. She lowered her head and looked at the lead-gray ore the size of a small bean in her palm, her lips pursed tightly. She is now 80% sure that what she found was also produced in the mine in front of her, and it is the so-called gray moonstone—it seems that her tireless efforts for the past three days were not in vain.
So now, is she trying to find a way to quietly take some ore from this mine back to Li Cha, or go back and tell Li Cha the location here?
Narid thought seriously.
According to what Li Cha said, as long as she finds the place where the gray moonstone is produced, it will be considered a return of favor. However, according to her inner thoughts, it is better to hand the ore directly into Li Cha's hands. She doesn't want Li Cha to underestimate her just because she is a woman—as long as someone helps her, she will double the reward. .
It's just that the current mine seems to be loosely guarded on the surface, and there are not many people guarding it, but it gives her a very dangerous feeling. If she wants to sneak in, it may not be safe. After all, her strength is not very strong. Not to mention facing wizards, even facing too many well-trained ordinary guards may suffer.
So how do you do it?
Narid frowned.
At this moment, the sound of a carriage outside the mine sounded. Narid looked down and saw a convoy heading towards the mine in the night. There was a flying fish painted on the outer wall of the carriage—— This is the symbol of Deep Blue Fort.
Narid couldn't help guessing: Could it be that this mine belongs to Deep Blue Fort? Then this convoy is coming now, isn't it going to transfer the gray moonstone in the mining area? In this case...
Thinking of this, Narid clenched her hand...
……
"Squeak..."
The convoy drove into the mine and stopped slowly.
Several supervisors from the mine greeted them with smiling faces.
The door of the carriage at the front of the convoy opened, and a young man stepped out, wearing a blue flying fish robe. He was an apprentice wizard from Deep Blue Castle.
Seeing the apprentice wizard, a few ordinary supervisors were very respectful and greeted quickly. After a while of courteous greetings, they led the apprentice wizard to the side of the mine and entered a warehouse.
"Master Crewe, look, this warehouse is full of this month's production." The supervisor opened a box and introduced, and saw pale yellow stones inside, "These are all high-quality acid sulfur stones. , and some of them are particularly high-quality, which can be used as spell materials for the masters of Deep Blue Castle."
After listening to the words, the wizard apprentice nodded and said, "Very good."
Afterwards, the tone changed: "However, the main purpose of my visit this time is not to see acid sulfur stone-although the price of acid sulfur stone is not cheap, you can find it in many places.
I came here this time mainly because of the gray moonstone you mentioned before. This thing is very rare, and it is used to release some evocation spells. It has an irreplaceable role and is extremely valuable. Many wizarding organizations, when they find out, they will take all of them and digest them internally. They seldom sell them, and at most they circulate on the black market.
This time, a mine producing gray moonstone was discovered, and many teachers in Deep Blue Castle attached great importance to it. I am here this time to bring back the gray moonstone you produced and test the quality of the gray moonstone for the teachers. If the quality is good, then maybe more people will be sent to increase mining efforts. understand? "
"Yes." The supervisor nodded quickly.
"Okay then, stop rambling, where is the gray moonstone, take it out quickly, I don't have time to waste with you."
"It's there." Hearing what he said, the supervisor quickly pointed to the corner and explained, "Because it is too rare and difficult to mine, so far only one box has been mined, and all of them are placed there."
The wizard apprentice looked in the direction pointed by the supervisor, with a cold expression: "Are you kidding me?!"
"How dare I?" the supervisor hurriedly said.
"What about the box?"
"Ah?" The supervisor was taken aback, looked towards the corner, his eyes widened suddenly, and he stayed where he was, "It shouldn't be, I checked just now, it's there, why is it gone..."
"Are you sure, you were still here just now?" The wizard apprentice looked solemn.
"OK."
"Then are you sure that the group of miners under you have not moved?"
"They absolutely dare not move. If they dare to move, I will kill them. This is the property of wizards!"
"Then—" the wizard apprentice narrowed his eyes, looked around, and said quickly, "Then it's easy, it seems that there are thieves in this mine."
"Thief?!" The supervisor was startled.
"Stop talking nonsense!" The wizard apprentice looked at the supervisor and roared, "Gather everyone and search for me, and I must find the thief! It may be someone from another wizard organization, and we must not let the other party Take the secret out, let alone the gray moonstone!"
"Yes!" Under the cold gaze of the wizard apprentice, the supervisor did not dare to say anything, ran out of the warehouse, and shouted loudly. After a while, the entire mining area boiled~IndoMTL.com~Many guards appeared and began to be strict search.
The wizard apprentice stood in the open space of the mine, paying attention to the situation in every area of the mine, ready to make a move at any time.
Just like that, time passed by.
When the guards searched for the abandoned ore pile in the mine, a figure suddenly rushed out, holding a large box, knocked the unresponsive guard to the ground, and ran towards the exit of the mine.
The apprentice wizard of Deep Blue Castle saw it, and immediately prepared to make a move, but unexpectedly, the figure running with the box turned his head suddenly, looked at him, and then spit out a blue-black seed from his mouth.
The seed falls to the ground, grows rapidly, and turns into a terrifying black vine that entangles everything around it.
The apprentice wizard's expression changed. He didn't dare to be careless. He quickly cast a spell and used acid to corrode the vines. At this time, the figure holding the box had already arrived at the exit of the mining area. At the exit, the opponent spit out seeds again and entangled the guard with vines, looking like he was about to escape.
"Damn it!"
The apprentice wizard cursed, opened and closed his lips, and a black energy arrow condensed at the end of his finger, hitting the opponent with all his strength.
The energy arrow was extremely fast, and it reached the back of the box-carrying person in the blink of an eye. After that, white light flashed on the box-carrying person, as if some magic item had been activated. After being hit by the energy arrow, his body shook slightly. Almost unaffected, he continued to run forward, ran out of the exit in the blink of an eye, and disappeared into the night.
The wizard apprentice was furious, and shouted loudly: "The thief is holding something, he can't run fast, chase me quickly! Chase me!" toss.
