Vol 2 Chapter 598: Deep into the mine

"Are you familiar with the environment here?" Xu Yichen raised the torch so that the miners behind him could see the surrounding environment clearly. ★WWw.slzw New `Thinking` Road` Chinese` Wen` Net
Although this world has not developed a complete industrial system, the power of magic has been involved in the links of industrial production.
In the New World, the exhaust magic array produced by the Witch King is a must-have item in every mining area. It can continuously discharge the underground exhaust gas from the mine with low wind speed.
Therefore, in the shallow tunnels of large mines, miners can use torches for lighting, and there are holes for torches on the walls on both sides.
After a long period of expansion and reinforcement, the mine tunnel has become a mine tunnel with a height of more than four meters, enough for three carts to run side by side on the ground.
It was just that the big mine was silent at this time, and it seemed that even the roar of the undead outside had been shielded. Apart from the torches in the hands of a few survivors, there was no other light source.
After turning two more bends, the outside sunlight was completely isolated, and the ground and the ground seemed to have become two worlds, and neither the pipeline nor the sound affected each other.
"My lord, I am familiar with it. I have worked here for eight years, and I have walked this road for eight years. I can also finish it with my eyes closed." The miner said nervously, "But go further 800 meters. , I am only familiar with the branch on the west side."
"It doesn't matter, let's go to the direction you are familiar with first and tell me what special place there is?" Xu Yichen took the lead with a torch. He has the talent of [Shimmer Vision], this dark environment, under the light of fire , It was enough for him to see all the details clearly: "Whether it's special minerals, geographical environment, or strange people, tell me."
"The tunnel I worked in belongs to Viscount Amos. In addition to hematite, sometimes some associated minerals can be found, which can extract some fine gold." The miner carefully recalled the details of his work: "Viscount Amos treated the slaves who dig stones harshly."
The miner frowned and said: "As everyone knows in the city, Viscount Amos is very harsh on slaves. Every day we have slaves dying in the mine, and the corpse is thrown into an abandoned mine. I can't stand it anymore."
"It's been so many years, won't the corpses of slaves cause plague after decay?" Xu Yichen felt that if there were corpses in this kind of confined space, the plague would have been rampant long ago, and it would be impossible to wait for today.
"There is no plague. I don't know if the mine was dug or something. It's bottomless. The corpse was thrown in and there was no sound of falling to the bottom." The miner suddenly said, "By the way, when it comes to that mine, sometimes we When passing by, I can hear the whistling wind below!"
An underground space? Xu Yichen frowned. He was not afraid of the demons in the Horror Demon Army, but he was very worried that he would be defeated by this complex underground space.
Moreover, after losing the maintenance of living people, the magic circle responsible for the flow of air stopped working. Others did not notice it, but the demon hunter whose sense of smell was specially strengthened could already feel the oxygen content in the air began to drop. , But also accompanied by a smell of rotting corpses.
Because of the dust, the footprints on the ground are very clear, and the footprints going out from the inside to the outside are scattered and chaotic. This is the result of the collective evacuations of the miners after the miners in the large mine were constantly missing.
The footprints from the outside to the inside are very neat and clear. These are left by Earl Modric and his guards when the Furnace Roaring Knights entered the mine to search for missing persons.
This is a team composed entirely of professionals. There are 25 people in the full staff state. If it weren't for the cornucopia of Earl Modric who had been sitting on the wind's breath, he would not be able to feed it.
Most lords in the Far South are like Fatty Antoine, who are affiliated with a certain power, and there are one or two professionals around them as bodyguards.
And Modric is not only an extraordinary person with good strength, but also provides real magic equipment to these extraordinary people, as well as the special product of Wind's Breath, the plate armor made of hematite.
These extraordinary people of civilian origin have a huge attraction. Guo Yunfeng also told Xu Yichen that the condition offered by Earl Modric was to have served in the Furnace Roaring Knights for five years, equipped with all individuals, and for ten years. Give the status of baron.
The conditions are really excellent, and the young people are not deceived. Nearly one-third of the nobles in Wind's Breath are from the Roaring Knights of the Forge.
The Brotherhood, at first, was also the place where the Roaring Knights who retired because of injury or old age met and drank in private.
There is also a relatively secret transmission. Count Modric himself once served as the first president of the Brotherhood. Although it was just a cutscene, Count Modric left in less than a year~www.mtlnovel .com~ But Modric is still the founder of the Brotherhood.
Later, with the development of the Brotherhood, the members gradually changed from members of the Knights to the descendants of the Knights. There were more and more young people. They were not only selected from the noble class, but also gradually expanded to the common people.
I don't know when it started. The Brotherhood had the principle of not being able to serve as its president over the age of forty. At the same time, it has also become a semi-public organization of power and influence with great influence.
Many young nobles and civilians dream of joining the Brotherhood in their life and making their mark. James, who was beheaded by Guo Yunfeng before, is the last member of the Brotherhood.
It's a pity that the other party had not had time to complete the ceremony of officially joining the Brotherhood, and the Wind's Breath Castle changed.
Xu Yichen has been wondering whether Earl Modric himself has anything to do with this plague, or what is it?
Is this the eternal dream of Viscount Amos, the leader of the Brotherhood, or the dream of Earl Modric?
After all, as a great aristocrat who has successfully risen from the grassroots class, Earl Modric's affair is already a public laughingstock.
Not only are the nobles in the city waiting to make a fortune on the distribution of property after the death of Earl Modric, even the commoners will gossip about the current situation faced by Earl Modric every day.
Compared with Viscount Amos, who is under forty years old but has three sons and two daughters, who would have a greater desire for immortality?
Guo Yunfeng had this kind of concern at the beginning, and he kept fully armed when communicating with Earl Modric. Fortunately, the Earl was very confident in his own strength and did not care too much.
"Turn left at the second fork in front, and that's what I said, my lord of the mine." The miner's face looked pale under the light of the fire, as if he was a little scared of the dark surroundings.
