Seven Thousand Eight Hundred and Forty-Nine Mineral Veins

The boss smiled bitterly and shook his head, telling Tang Yu: "Of course they can be destroyed, but after destroying those spirit insects, several large mineral veins will be exhausted instantly, and no more evil magic crystals can be collected. The specific reason is that no one has discovered it so far."

"Someone has tried to destroy those spirit insects before."

"The strength of the spirit insects is actually not strong. To destroy them, the Demon Refining City only spent hundreds of thousands of strong men in the ninth level of the middle god to deal with them."

"But then, these evil magic crystal veins were exhausted instantly."

"You know, there were still countless evil magic crystals in these evil magic crystal veins at that time. They disappeared in such a moment, which is really too shocking."

"However, if human corpses are fed to the veins again, such spirit insects will appear again after a while, and then evil magic crystals will appear in the veins again."

Tang Yu was instantly shocked by this situation, and his face showed an extremely shocked expression. Obviously, he did not expect that such a situation would occur.

He couldn't help showing a hint of hesitation, and curiously thought in his heart: Could it be that the so-called evil magic crystal veins do not exist? Is it just because those spirit insects can devour human corpses and turn them into evil magic crystals for use?

This guess suddenly emerged from Tang Yu's mind, and the feeling became stronger and stronger, making him feel that maybe it was really because of this reason that the evil magic crystals would disappear after killing those spirit insects.

"What if it is the corpse of a monster?" Tang Yu asked again curiously.

"The effect of the corpse of a monster is not particularly good. Those spirit insects don't seem to like the corpse of a monster. The same number of monster corpses can only produce a small part of the evil magic crystals. To get the same number of evil magic crystals, the number of monster corpses must be at least dozens of times higher than that of human corpses."

The boss secretly glanced around, and then continued: "If this is the case, the manpower invested in hunting monsters will greatly increase. In the end, it is very likely that the investment will not be as good as the harvest. So later, the Demon Refining City became what it is now."

"Isn't it equivalent to countless people becoming the nutrients of the evil magic crystals in the hands of others every day?" Tang Yu frowned and said.

"Yes! Who said it wasn't? But what can we do about it? Not to mention the Demon Refining City, the entire region is actually such a society, where strength is respected. The stronger your strength is, the better your life will be. The weaker your strength is, the more you will become a dish in other people's mouths." The boss sighed as if he had a story.

"Are the people in the Demon Refining City all fools? If so, why not leave here and live in other cities? It's better than becoming food for a group of spirit insects!" Tang Yu was very angry.

"The Demon Refining City is a world where opportunities and crises coexist. Although it is very dangerous here, there are countless opportunities. Not to mention anything else, the contribution points rewarded by the tasks issued by the task alone are enough to make most people live better here than in other cities. Not to mention, after completing these tasks, there are other rewards. You must know that these extra rewards are the real big ones. It is also an opportunity for countless people. If it is in other cities, there will be no such opportunity!" The boss said, patted Tang Yu on the shoulder, and poured a jar of fine wine into his mouth with emotion.

...

On the way back, Tang Yu's mind kept replaying what his boss had told him about the situation in the Demon Refining City, especially the situation of the several super-large mineral veins.

Originally, Tang Yu didn't care much about the millions of people who died here every day. He thought that this was a society where strength was respected, and it was normal for so many people to die.

But when he knew that the death of these people was actually a conspiracy, a conspiracy deliberately made by the top leaders of the Demon Refining City in order to allow others to live better here, they couldn't even die peacefully, and could only become food for a group of small insects.

In fact, they didn't have to die.

Tang Yu was extremely angry. He was not a saint, but he just felt that this approach was unacceptable to him and would make him feel a little painful.

But think about it again, if there were no sacrifices from these people, how could others live.

There are tens of billions of people living here, and there are a steady stream of new people coming here every day.

It can be said that the Demon Refining City is the place where most people have stayed in the entire region. It can almost be said that practitioners in any region may have lived in the Demon Refining City.

However, some people chose to stay, while others came and left. It was this balance that continuously maintained the development of the Demon Refining City.

"Alas!" Tang Yu sighed deeply, and passed the crowded street in front of the courtyard, and fought with a group of people several times.

I don't know if it was because he knew the fate of these dead people, so Tang Yu couldn't help but be a little lighter when fighting this time, and didn't kill anyone.

Finally, he returned to the courtyard.

Pushing open the door, Xia Tangming and the other two had returned and were sitting in the courtyard, waiting for Tang Yu.

As soon as they saw Tang Yu, they stood up and asked anxiously: "Master, are you okay!"

"I'm fine! How's your investigation going?" Tang Yu walked weakly to the stone bench next to the three people, sat down, and took out the jar of blood cloud wine and a few small bowls.

"And wine?" Chi Qiu was a little greedy when he saw the fine wine that Tang Yu took out. He licked his lips excitedly and said with a smile: "Brother Tang is still thoughtful, but... there are just some snacks missing!"

As he said, Chi Qiu was about to pick up the wine jar and pour himself a bowl of fine wine.

"Don't get excited, this wine is not for drinking now, you should first tell me what you found when you went down!" Tang Yu stopped Chi Qiu's actions.

He knew the power of this fine wine. Although Chi Qiu's physical strength was very high, the problem was that the effect of this fine wine was directly on the blood and qi. High physical strength did not mean that the blood and qi could withstand such a strong impact.

Chi Qiu curled his lips, a little greedy, but still said: "After an afternoon of exploration, I found a situation. The Demon Refining City is too chaotic, and anything can only be obtained after fighting. Just today, no less than fifty people died in my hands. I don't want this, but those people are too ungrateful."

"That's right! My discovery is the same as Chi Qiu's. I went to see a few drug stores. Let's not talk about the quality of the pills in them, but I just looked at a pill similar to the Yuanling Pill on the side. As a result, a person who liked this pill suddenly attacked me. If I hadn't reacted in time, where would you see me intact!" Xia Tangming also said with tears in his eyes.

Hearing Xia Tangming say this, Tang Yu remembered the boss's reminder, so he hurriedly said: "Lao Xia, next time you go out, try to go with Chi Qiu or Lao Xuan, and never act alone."

"My lord, my strength is not that bad!" Xia Tangming heard Tang Yu's words and felt wronged.

"It's not that the strength is poor, but..."

Tang Yu told some news he got from his boss.

"Really? Brother Tang, that guy is not fooling you! If this really happened, why are there so many people rushing here in the Demon Refining City?" Chi Qiu didn't quite believe this statement, which overturned his three views.
