Chapter 512 [Subscribe] [5K]

From the sinkhole to the nearest murloc outpost, it is at least five or six kilometers away.

Those murlocs couldn't have good eyesight enough to detect any clues in the burrows.

Unless there's a lot of noise, it's impossible to find out what's going on here.

At any rate, he also personally transferred 29 lion and skeleton knights before.

Therefore, it can be regarded as experience, and there is more confidence in not being discovered by shallow water murlocs.

Sure enough, according to Zong Shen's instructions, everyone lined up in a long line to enter the burrow one by one and did not attract the attention of the murlocs.

Zong Shen and Baron Bezos personally acted as the vanguard, leading the soldiers under their command at the forefront.

The workers behind lit torches one after another, and the fire lit up the tunnel.

There was also a strong smell of smoke.

Baron Bezos has been careful along the way, keeping his eyes on the ground and around.

Zong Shen's heart is very relaxed, after all, this is the third time he has entered it.

They did not go directly to the end of the aisle, but after confirming the aisle, Baron Bezos asked the laborers to dig to both sides on the spot.

Especially those with obvious traces of wooden beams.

The laborers were divided into two groups, one for digging and the other for carrying the soil away through rattan baskets.

There are twenty people in the excavation group and ten people in the transportation group.

The tunnel is about four or five meters wide and can accommodate two cavalrymen in parallel.

Zong Shen also took out two magic drilling machines.

Let the two Rhodok sergeants under him take the lead.

The driving of the magic energy machine is not very difficult, as long as you know the functions of the push rods and buttons, you can get started quickly.

Zong Shen didn't put much effort into his studies.

That is to let the Raiders module specify the function of the corresponding putter for him.

Under his personal instruction, the two Rhodok sergeants quickly mastered the driving skills.

With the addition of the magic drilling machine, the progress of the excavation has been greatly improved.

First, the laborers excavate a part, and then let the drilling machine slowly advance.

A team of Tier 4 Avalon Strike Rangers occupied the nearby vantage point.

Or on some tree canopies, or on rocks near the mountainside.

They will guard the vicinity of the ruins pit, as sentinels.

And that team of Tier 4 Avalon strong fencers followed Baron Bezos.

When Zong Shen took out the magic drilling rig, the excavation progress in the passage was greatly improved.

Baron Bezos and he also continued to move forward with the soldiers under his command and came to the hall.

It still looks calm here, but Zong Shen has already swept the place.

He deliberately walked behind, watching Baron Bezos holding torches to search and check one by one.

...

Five or six hours later.

It was already dark outside.

The time also came to ten o'clock in the evening.

During the period, the workers only rested once and ate the dry food they brought with them.

These laborers were hired by Baron Bezos.

Because it is a long journey, the wages are very high, 5 dinars per person per day.

If the miscellaneous maid finds out, she will have to cry halfway down the road.

During this time, the passages on both sides have been excavated almost.

Obtained about 62 rare knight lances and 26 knight swords.

In addition, there are plate armors worn by war horses, only 12 sets are not many.

These are all the harvests of the ruins on both sides.

Zong Shen was watching the whole process. According to the agreement, this batch of equipment will be divided equally between the two.

As for the hall of the cavern where Baron Bezos had high hopes, he found nothing.

He had the accompanying team of fourth-rank strong fencers put on shovels and dig for hours.

Even he himself has been digging for a long time, but still nothing.

In the silt-filled wooden houses, only the remains and badly decayed armor were found.

During this period, Zong Shen also helped to dig with a shovel for a while.

He naturally knew that this was a useless act, but he still had to pretend.

The excavation outside the passage came to an end, and laborers and magic drilling machines drove in one after another.

Getting ready for a new round of excavation work.

For Baron Bezos, the exploration of the ruins this time was nothing short of smooth.

Two more [Magic Drilling Machines] were added, which increased the mining efficiency several times.

But he still frowned, looking dissatisfied.

After working for five or six hours in a row, he also felt very tired, and he had been on the airship for a long time today, which made him physically and mentally exhausted.

Especially in the dark and cramped environment of the burrow.

Baron Bezos took Zong Shen to the side to find the remains of a petrified log cabin and sat down.

"Brother Zong..."

There was deep weariness in his voice, and some confusion.

Zong Shen's condition is much better than his.

But staying in such an environment for a long time still made him a little bit inexplicably irritable.

This is not a big problem, just a little emotion.

Hearing the call of Baron Bezos, he took off his helmet and turned his head.

Through the dim light of the torches around him, he could vaguely see Baron Bezos' expression.

The shadows of the two were reflected on the top of the cave under the light of the fire, and they were drawn very long.

Surrounded by the sound of shovels digging into the earth, and the "rumbling" sound of magic drills.

"Sir, just say what you want to say."

Zong Shen moved his arms and asked casually.

"This exploration has gone too smoothly."

"So far, the lion and skeleton knights have not even been alerted."

"This situation makes me a little uneasy."

Baron Bezos said truthfully, but it wasn't just these uneasy factors that made him unhappy.

In this regard, Zong Shen also just spread his hands.

"When I came to investigate this morning, I only encountered a lion and skeleton knight."

"We met in the tunnel and I ran out."

"Lord Bezos, we must not take it lightly."

"Those lion and skeleton knights must be deep in the burrows."

"There are several dark passages here."

"After we dig further, those guys should be alerted."

Zong Shen raised his finger and pointed to the dark passages in the distance.

These are all part of the ruins and unexplored places.

Although he abducted 29 lion and skeleton knights by himself, according to his estimation, there must be many undead in the depths of the ruins.

For this reason, he also inquired about the strategy before, and understood the composition of the Lion Knights.

The knights of the Lion Knights are mainly composed of fifth-order knights, and some sixth-order knights.

The number is about one-fifth of the total number of legions, that is, a brigade, about 1,200 people.

According to the proportion, Zong Shen speculated that there must be some fifth-order lion and skeleton knights in the depths of the ruins.

There is even a high probability of a sixth-order lion and skeleton knight.

At that time, there were at least hundreds of people left in this station.

Excluding those who died in the final explosion, the number of undead who have undergone other hardships and become undead is also 60~100.

Because there is not only an explosion in the end period, but all the revived lion and skeleton knights have their armor torn, and their bones are covered with knife marks, which once again confirms his previous thoughts.

That is, the Era is made up of many trials and tribulations, and the explosion is only one of the most obvious factors.

Based on the above reasons, Zong Shencai was so certain that there must be more undead in the depths of the ruins.

If his speculation is wrong, then he can only make another excuse.

It is said that those lion and skeleton knights may have run away by themselves.

Baron Bezos couldn't figure out what's going on here anyway.

After thinking of the countermeasures, Zong Shen became more calm.

His words are not unreasonable.

The current exploration progress has only reached about 50%.

Barely halfway through.

Baron Bezos could only nod his head, pinning his hopes on places that had not yet been excavated.

...

Excavation work continued until the early hours of the morning.

For safety and basic rest.

Baron Bezos ordered the excavation to stop and the laborers to return to the surface along the passage.

Zong Shen also put away two magic drilling machines.

He and Baron Bezos will take charge of the aftermath with their respective fighters.

Although there is no danger in the burrow, it is impossible for Baron Bezos to let everyone rest in the ruins, even if he arranges a man to be responsible for the vigil.

Once the lion and skeleton knight suddenly attacked, it would inevitably bring great casualties.

Zong Shen naturally had no opinion on this.

The eight or nine hours of digging left the workers exhausted.

The corresponding travel speed is much slower.

It took more than an hour for everyone to return to the top of the mountain from the ruins.

At midnight, the wind howled over the top of the mountain.

Because of the altitude, and there are no trees around the cliffs at the top of the mountain.

The wind can drive straight in here, sweeping past.

The simple tents that were built before became the resting place for the laborers and the soldiers of the city.

It was blown whirring by the strong wind.

Fortunately, the luggage boxes were piled up under those poles.

Baron Bezos' couch is equally simple, but much better than others.

He made a bed out of four luggage boxes and covered it with layers of soft fur.

Such a bed can't compare to a castle, but it's definitely better than sleeping on the floor.

Zong Shen and Veresa slept beside Ying-chan.

Eagle sauce's body of more than ten meters turned its direction and lay on its side, and its wings were folded, forming a small safe haven.

The crowd just lay beside it.

Zong Shen was a little bolder and lay directly on its hind limbs.

It was like the hind legs of a lion, although it also had scales, but it was much softer.

Make do with one night and go!

...

The next day, around seven in the morning.

Baron Bezos had already woken up.

Compared with Zong Shen, he cared more about the progress of the excavation of the ruins.

I can't wait to dig the whole ruins upside down in one day.

Under his mobilization, all the laborers and state soldiers also woke up.

Those soldiers are not bad, but the laborers are exhausted.

Digging is not an easy job.

Their physique is also inferior to those of the warriors.

After resting for more than six hours a night, I was still somewhat sleepy.

The top of the cliff is literally yawning.

Baron Bezos saw this situation and made a temporary mobilization.

"Everyone is listening."

"Work hard today and try to get it all done tonight."

"As an incentive, as long as the excavation task can be completed tonight, everyone will be given a one-time salary of 20 dinars!"

"Counting yesterday, it's 25 dinars. In addition, when you return tomorrow, you will be paid 5 dinars per day. It's already 30 dinars here!"

He decided to use his wages as an incentive.

It takes two or three days to earn 30 dinars, which is equivalent to nearly a month's income for these workers.

It is equivalent to one and a half month's salary of a sundry maid.

When Zong Shen came to Bosbang before, seven or eight people spent less than 10 dinars for a meal.

It can be seen from this that the money means to ordinary aboriginal people.

This move really worked well, and the workers suddenly became energized.

Everyone raised their shovels and cheered.

"Long live Sir Bezos!"

"Long live Sir Bezos!"

"Long live!"

...

The cheers woke Zong Shen up.

Vereesa and the others woke up long ago, but they didn't call Zong Shen on their own initiative.

Normally six hours of sleep is more than enough for him.

A little snooze today.

After stretching, Zong Shen touched his face and rubbed his eyes, and soon woke up.

"Why are they so excited?"

Hearing the cheers, Zong Shen turned his head and asked with some doubts.

Aishia, who was on the side, was holding the staff, with a lively smile on her face.

The cause and effect of the incident was relayed to Zong Shen.

"It turned out to be a salary increase."

"I thought something was wrong."

"Vereesa, distribute food to everyone."

Zong Shen nodded, and then instructed Vereesa.

During this outing, supplies and food were placed in Vereesa's storage compartment.

Also assigned by her.

The food is very simple, a piece of hard bread and a piece of jerky for each person.

Everyone has a water bladder ready.

These are their breakfasts.

Even Zong Shen is no exception, he basically eats and lives with everyone.

Only occasionally will a small stove be opened in the lord's small building.

It's not bad to be able to eat these when you don't want to make a fire.

Meanwhile, the workers stopped cheering.

Their dry food was provided by Baron Bezos.

It is a potato that has been steamed in advance.

Some are like potatoes, but much bigger.

Each is the size of a small melon.

Has dark red skin.

After steaming once, it can be stored at room temperature for three to five days.

This stuff will get harder and harder over time.

Need a good mouth and some water to eat.

It's not bad as a dry food, at least it's full.

And the workers don't pay much attention to it.

As for Baron Bezos himself and the entourage of the city warriors, they have to eat much better.

They also had no fire, and each had an apple, a hard-boiled egg, relatively fresh white bread and raspberry jam.

There is a huge contrast between such food and workers.

But no one expressed dissatisfaction with it.

The aborigines of this world are already hugely divided.

Workers have long been accustomed to class disparities.

Employers like Bezos who are willing to provide dry food, plus an extra salary, are rare.

When the lower-level aboriginal people got used to this situation, everything became more acceptable.

During this period, Baron Bezos also visited Zong Shen and asked if he wanted breakfast.

But at that time Zong Shen and the others had already finished eating.

Like Vereesa and the others, he doesn't pay much attention to what he eats.

Everything is for the purpose of filling the stomach.

Pragmatism has almost become their habit.

This is also a style that Zong Shen has formed since he landed.

From frugality to extravagance is easy, from extravagance to frugality is difficult.

After breakfast, the time has come to more than 7:40 in the morning.

The workers brought shovels, water bladders, and rattan baskets to form the team again.

It was Zong Shen and Baron Bezos who led the way ahead with their respective warriors.

The laborers formed a long queue in the middle.

At the end, a team of fourth-order strong strike rangers are in charge of the rear.

Today's task is still to excavate the ruins.

These rangers are still responsible for maintaining tight vigilance around the ruins.

Focus on those shallow water murlocs.

Once the murlocs are found moving to the ruins, the rangers will report to Baron Bezos immediately.

Twelve Tier 4 Rangers are also a lot of combat power.

Zong Shen and Baron Bezos entered the tunnel first.

Compared with yesterday, the passage has been excavated and widened a lot.

Even three or four carriages can be moved side by side.

The passages and crypt halls have been explored almost.

Baron Bezos is so obsessed with this that he even dug up many log cabins filled with dirt yesterday.

For Zong Shen, this is a useless effort.

But he didn't say much, just let Baron Bezos toss.

Anyway, he also made some efforts to support his own field and contributed two magic energy excavators.

What should be earned has already been earned.

Next, the distribution of those ancient equipment left behind is even more secure.

Even if one person is half of him, Zong Shen is still earning blood.

The goal today is simple and clear, and that is to excavate the remainder of the ruins.

Even Zong Shen didn't have time to set foot in this part before.

According to the Raiders tips, there should be four or five valuable places.

Zong Shen hoped that these places were all ancient deacon equipment.

It's best not to have a single treasure chest.

Although he knew it was impossible.

Treasure chests are a source of embarrassment, and Baron Bezos's inability to open it will inevitably lead to suspicion.

Zong Shen had already made up his mind, if they found the treasure chest.

Then pretend to be stupid, and then see if there is a chance to get it embarrassingly and politely.

Baron Bezos stood there, waiting for the workers to enter the field one after another.

A torch was inserted in the corner or on the soil wall.

After discussion between the two, it was decided that the six strong fencers under Baron Bezos and the four sergeants of Zong Shen should form an exploration group to take the initiative to enter the dark passages that have not yet been opened.

Zong Shen had no opinion on this.

Only after the warriors have explored they can they get the laborers and fel rigs to dig.

There are a total of four channels of varying widths, corresponding to three directions.

There are two right in front, and one at different positions on the left and right.

Baron Bezos made a decision and chose a passage near the right as the first exploration target!

Someone said yesterday that you can read the title and know what to write.

Is not this nonsensical?

Otherwise, why do you need a title?

Get two chapters with blank titles today and see if there is a more novel experience.
