Chapter 371 You Have Burrowing Insects, I Have Technology Trees

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The walls of the cave trembled, and dust and gravel rolled down. The dwarves who were mining in other mines stopped their pickaxes and listened to the sounds deep in the mines, and they all changed their colors.

"What are they doing?"

"I don't know...have you encountered a monster?"

"There have been no Warcraft in this mine for more than ten years, right?"

"Should we go take a look?"

"...Let's go? Although we won't let others interfere in the selection of the king, it's okay to have a look?"

"If there is really a danger, we should take action to protect the mine, right?"

The dwarves discussed chaotically, picked up mining picks and shovels, and rushed towards the mine tunnel where Rothega was. I rushed to the mine entrance and took a look...

There is no fighting.

No danger.

No blood, no thunder, no roar, not even sweaty mining...

Five dwarves, one human, and one barbarian, gathered leisurely at the door to chat. Those who brag brag, those who smoke smoke, and those who cross their legs. Except for Rothega, who was looking deep into the mine tunnel, ready to rush in at any time, the others were relaxing.

The most annoying thing is that the human is chatting with the only dwarf girl!

Girl!

A rare girl in the mine tunnel!

I held my head with that human, discussing and writing and drawing at the same time. His eyebrows were dancing with joy, he was talking and laughing, and his bright red twin tails almost flew up!

"...Is it almost done?"

"It's almost done." Gretel listened attentively, "It seems that there are no more rocks rolling down. You can go in and drag the ore - Gavin, I will borrow your fiancée for a while!"

"Is it useful if I say no?"

"It's useless!" Jin Na raised her head with a smile. She immediately lay down on the table again: "Gretel, keep talking! That steam forging hammer..."

Four dwarves and a barbarian filed deep into the mine. Not long after, they returned with a squeaking sound, carrying large baskets of ore, and fell to the ground with a crash.

Beside the table, large chunks of black and gray ore have been piled into three piles as high as half a person.

"Hoo, ho, it's so convenient to use explosives to open mines. At this moment, we have been working for three days..." Prince Rosega wiped the sweat from his forehead:

"It's just too expensive! Forget about mining fine gold and mithril. Ordinary ore is really unaffordable - Gretel, it cost you money!"

"Hey, it's okay!"

Gretel smiled. I made all this myself. When I set out, Master Norwood helped me pack my luggage and stuffed a bag with it for me to use as I wanted!

"Is there enough ore? Not enough for me to explode again!"

"Then...it's up to you!"

Gretel put on a mask, threw a bubble spell on himself, got up and entered the mine tunnel. Bernard got in front of him, used an iron drill to cut a hole in the front wall, and immediately retreated. Gretel faced the cave wall and breathed evenly:

"Burning Hands!"

"Freeze ray!"

"Burning Hands!"

"Freeze ray!"

La la la la, la la la la, the cave wall is criss-crossed, with large and small gaps opening. Prince Rosega personally went into battle, dug a few pickaxes, and dug a medium-sized cave. Gretel stuffed the explosives inside, clapped his hands, and walked back leisurely...

After walking around the corner, he lay on the cave wall with half of his head exposed, pointing at the explosive in the distance:

"Scorching Ray!"

boom! ! !

With the assistance of explosives, mining efficiency soared instantly. It only took Rothega's team one day to mine seven dwarves from the other teams, which required ten days of hard work. And more than half of this day was wasted waiting, waiting, waiting for all the crumbling stones to fall...

In short, while other teams were still sticking their butts out in the mine and using mining picks to dig out rocks, Grete's team had already dragged the broken and selected ore, leisurely and leisurely, onto the road. On the way back.

In full view of everyone, a small car was dragged behind everyone. ——Gretel? Except for Grete. When Bernard was about to pour the ore into his car and drag it away with him, Grete silently opened the space bag...

"What? They've already finished mining? So quickly?!"

Archbishop Geroni frowned. The dwarves were all stubborn, smelly and hard, like stones in a latrine. The Holy See of Glory had been operating for several generations before it finally infiltrated a tribe—the Black Rock Tribe, which often prospected outside and rarely lived in groups.

From getting close to, influencing, and making friends a little bit, to making the candidates believe in the Lord of Glory, the efforts, youth, and even lives that missionaries of all generations have put in can be said with blood and tears.

In this king-selection battle, the Vatican invested a large amount of resources - including mental calculations and unintentional ones - including the rare earth-burrowing devil insect. No less than ten knights died just by surrendering it. To train a person below level five who can use mental power The priest who controlled and commanded the demonic insects had crippled at least five more people.

Everything is done to ensure that the candidates of the Black Rock Tribe can win according to normal procedures. Only in this way can he convince the public, rule the dwarf kingdom smoothly in the next few hundred years, and make the entire kingdom lean towards the church little by little.

But now it seems that the Firehammer Tribe, the candidate of the king's tribe, is trying to equalize their advantage?

"Yes, not only is it fast, but the amount of ore mined is very large." In front of the archbishop, Bishop Klind, who came to report the news, quietly wiped his sweat:

"I saw them with my own eyes when they entered the city. There were several large cars. The dwarves next to me were saying that with so much ore, it was enough to build two sets of full-body armor!"

Having more ore means there is room for refining, which means that it can be refined over time to create the best finished product. Before Archbishop Geroni set out, he also learned about casting in the Holy See and knew that this was not a good thing. He knocked on the table:

"Let Kai and the others speed up! Pry the carapace off the demonic insect first and start smelting in advance! Seize the best fire outlet and don't let the Fire Hammer Tribe take it!"

"yes!"

Of course, it was impossible for Prince Rosega to occupy the fire mouth in advance. The ore has been dragged back and needs to be crushed, sorted and crushed. After all the preliminary work is completed, the best ore powder can be taken to the furnace for smelting.

Unlike here in the Black Rock Tribe, the burrowing demon insects eat the ore and the metal carapace condensed on their bodies can be thrown directly into the furnace.

Rothega and the others mined the ore and wanted to process the ore on the spot. There are mountain streams near the mine, flowing water, and water hammers connected to water wheels. With the prince's connections, it was not a big deal to use a water hammer to hit the ore.

However, Gretel insisted on returning to the melting pot. Not only him, but Gavin’s fiancée, the female dwarf Jinna, also stood unequivocally on Gretel’s side:

"It's much easier to use a steam forging hammer to smash ore! I can do it! Leave this to me!"
