Just after Guangming Continent unified the continents of the Western Regions, the original "Continent" was canceled and it was named "District". But I didn't expect that everyone has long been accustomed to the name "Zhou", even the internal personnel of Guangming Zhou often do this. The district term is rarely used, and only occasionally can be seen from some official announcements.
Guangming Continent has a vast territory, the eastern and central parts are the most prosperous, while the western part is much more desolate. Baiyezhou is located at the westernmost edge of Guangmingzhou, and it is known as a vast area. However, although the continents in the west are far inferior to those in the central part of the east, due to the rich mineral resources, many chambers of commerce invest in the mining industry here.
Baiyezhou is a typical mining island.
Mines and caverns can be seen everywhere, and the distribution is very scattered. Occasionally, mine ships are seen. Unless there are large-scale mine veins, large-scale mining camps will appear, but the investment required is astonishing, and only powerful chambers of commerce can have such capital. More common are some mining groups, who drive small mining ships, like hunters, looking for small ore veins that are easy to mine in the wilderness.
Most of the mining groups are small, with about ten people. Unless there are special skills, otherwise, the requirements for combat power are quite high. The desolate wilderness is not a city with good law and order. Rush, stealing, such things can often be encountered. And if a rare ore vein is dug up, it will arouse the covetousness of the peers, and it may even cause several mining groups to pretend to be bandits and join forces to grab the goods.
After working in this business for a while, who doesn't have a few lives
Fortunately, the income from mining is good. If they encounter rare ore veins, the wealth exchanged for a ship of ore can even last them for several years. This is why this line of work is so dangerous, but there are still people who come to take risks.
A mining ship was slowly flying over the wilderness. It was a small mining ship, and its length was less than 30 meters. The hull is mottled and dilapidated, very simple, like most mine ships, and its biggest function is to load ore and supplies. If they are in danger, they can leave the mine ship and escape without hesitation.
Wright stood at the bow, and the ship flew very slowly, very steadily.
His eyes glowed with faint white light, and after a while, he raised his voice, "Turn thirty degrees to the right."
The mine ship slowly deflected in the direction guided by Wright, and flew forward for about five kilometers. Wright suddenly said: "Stop!"
The mine ship stopped steadily, and everyone on board jumped off the ship one after another, and a charred mine pit appeared in front of their eyes.
"Damn! One step too late!"
"It has been dug up."
The teammates were cursing and showing disappointment on their faces, but they were not too excited. Mineral veins buried in the shallow surface of the ground are always easy to find, and it is not a strange thing to be caught first. In the vast wilderness, large and small mines can be seen everywhere, and some of them even have a history of hundreds of years.
Abandoned mines, some covered with weeds, some turned into ponds, become part of nature as time goes by.
Wright didn't say a word, his eyes were fixed on the mine, and the white light covering his eyes became brighter and brighter.
Seeing this, the others shut up one after another.
Although Wright is young, he is a good mine hunter and an experienced team leader. He is full of praise for Wright on this point. They were able to get good income, and a lot of credit goes to Wright.
The white light in Wright's eyes is a special martial skill.
[Eye of Shimmer], in Arthur City, you need to spend one million Bright Coins to buy it. Wright's [Eye of Shimmer] was not bought, but given by his grandfather. It is said that the grandfather served an elder and gained the elder's trust. When his grandfather was alive, his family was extremely prosperous. Later, the grandfather died in an accident, and the family fortune gradually declined.
[Eye of Shimmer] belongs to Shimmer Martial Arts, it is said that some elders of Guangming Continent specially researched it for the benefit of everyone.
The reason why they are called twilight martial arts is because their manipulation of energy is extremely subtle, and their styles are completely different from the martial arts that are currently open and closed in the sanctuary. There are many low-light martial arts, the system is complex, and the high-level is also open to the outside world, but there are not many learners.
There are many reasons for this. One is that the price is not cheap. On the other hand, it is too different from today's martial arts style. Although it is sometimes eye-catching, but more often it cannot be integrated into the regiment, which greatly limits the prospects of practitioners.
These shimmering martial arts are very complicated, from shallow to deep, from low to high, it is a huge system. The martial arts in it are good and bad, and many martial arts focus on ridiculous things, such as saving energy. In the Sanctuary, which is extremely energetic, it is completely unnecessary in everyone's eyes to make complicated changes for such a ridiculous reason.
It is these problems that greatly hinder the development of low-light martial arts.
Wright knew a little more than the average person. He knew that the shimmering martial art was not practiced by an elder at all, but came from a mysterious place. He has been working hard to cultivate the [Eye of Shimmer], and his unremitting practice has allowed him to observe extremely subtle energy flows. However, he needs to concentrate and hold his breath, and it cannot be used in battle, which is quite a useless function.
It wasn't until he was mining for the first time that he suddenly discovered the energy flow on the surface, which seemed to be connected with the veins, that he suddenly realized where the [Eye of Shimmer] he cultivated should be used!
Today, Wright is already a minor celebrity.
"Dig down!"
Wright's words lifted everyone's spirits, and without calling, the strong players jumped out of the mine one after another. Bright white lights lit up on the entire group of people, and the head of the strong man, like a snow bear, suddenly fell down, and his palms were silently slapped on the hard rock formation.
puff.
The rock formation trembled imperceptibly, and the rock powder rustled down.
Another team member clasped his arms and shouted, countless rock powders seemed to be sucked up by a hurricane, turning into a black dragon, passing through his clasped arms, and flying out of the pit.
A large hole with a diameter of 20 meters suddenly appeared on the rock, and the edge of the hole wall seemed to be cut by a knife.
The others quickly jumped into the cave, and with the miner's shovel in their hands, they shoveled away the rocks effortlessly. They cooperated with each other tacitly, and in the blink of an eye, they went more than 100 meters underground.
When a long dragon made of blue crystals came into their sight, everyone couldn't help cheering in unison!
Ding blue crystal is an expensive crystal ore, which can be widely used in metal smelting, hull strengthening, etc., and can be easily sold. Although this ore vein is not big, but the most conservative estimate can produce more than 70 cubic meters of fixed blue crystal.
This is a big deal!
"Everyone, be careful!" The captain couldn't help but urge him, his face was full of joy, and he patted Wright: "Old rules, you get 20%!"
Wright also showed joy on his face, and he didn't expect to be able to dig out the blue crystal.
The team members took out various tools one after another, and changed their movements from opening and closing to being cautious, lest they break the blue crystal. There is a twenty-fold price difference between Ding blue crystal and Ding blue crystal fragments in good condition, so there is no room for them to be careless.
Fortunately, they are all experienced veterans with skilled skills. It only took half an hour to carefully cut all the fixed blue crystals and transport them to the mine ship.
When Wright went through it and announced that there were no missing blue crystals, the cheers broke out again.
At this moment, the ground suddenly shook slightly, as if thousands of horses were galloping.
Everyone's movements stopped immediately.
The captain's face changed drastically. If someone saw such a boatload of blue crystals, it would definitely attract the covetousness of countless people. He shouted sharply: "Everyone on board! Withdraw immediately!"
The faces of the others also changed drastically, and they jumped onto the mine ship in a hurry.
The mine ship flew in the opposite direction at the highest speed.
Boom, boom.
The vibration of the ground is getting bigger and bigger, indicating that the distance between the other party and them is getting closer.
The captain's expression was very bad, and he regretted extremely in his heart, he should change to a faster ship as a mine ship!
Wright's face was pale. He had been in this business for a long time, and he was not a youngster who had never seen blood, but he had never encountered such a big movement.
What is it
Beast
If it was another mining group, the scream of the hull flying was indeed breathtaking, but compared with the movement in front of them, it was nothing. The extremely dense rumbling sound seemed to hit his heart. He even saw the small stone on the ground with his own eyes, and he jumped up, half a meter above the ground.
The other team members around him also looked panic-stricken.
The most frightening thing is the unknown.
The vibration became louder and louder, and the opponent was getting closer.
At this time, the experienced captain had no luck in his heart, drew out his weapon, and shouted sharply: "Get ready to fight!"
He didn't know what it was, but his dangerous intuition allowed him to make an accurate judgment.
Before the words were finished, a bronze-colored line was covered on the mountain in the distance.
Wright, who has practiced [Eye of Shimmer], has the sharpest eyesight, and he exclaimed in surprise, "It's a mechanism armor!"
Organ armour!
The captain's pupils shrank, Jinzhou people!
In the next scene, he shouted at the edge of his mouth, and he lost his voice abruptly.
Numerous organ armours, like tides, poured down from the top of the mountain. The exposed mountain top was submerged by dense bronze torrents in a blink of an eye.
They finally understood, what happened just now
The terrifying torrent of bronze swarmed towards this side at an astonishing speed. The speed is simply jaw-dropping.
The distance between the two sides is rapidly narrowing, and they can see it more clearly.
They have never seen such an ugly machine armour. The body is thick and bloated, without any sense of beauty, and the production is extremely simple, without painting. Shoddy.
However, when a few meters-high rocks stood in front of them, they didn't dodge or jump, but rushed over without dodging.
The huge rock was like a ball being savagely hit by a wooden club, and was directly bounced into the sky, drawing a parabola, and smashed heavily several hundred meters away.
The torrent of bronze came again from the rock that had just landed.
The continuous impact made the rock explode with a bang.
The gravel rained like a rain, and the ugly and ferocious monster rushed out.
The blood on everyone's faces faded away, and their eyes were full of fear.
The torrent of bronze is unstoppable, crushing all obstacles in front of them.
