Chapter 38 The ground is full of ores and the road is forked

Assam’s resolute face frowned in pain.

After a moment, he also felt an extra force in his body, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

“So, is this the Lord’s intention? It’s really amazing.”

“Thank you for the whipping, respected lord!”

Assam said respectfully.

At this time, Assam said with some embarrassment: “Lord, can you whip me a few more times?”

“Assam wants to become stronger!”

Cao Xing shook his head and said, “No, only the first flogging will be effective.”

Hearing this, Assam nodded regretfully.

The people next to them, listening to their conversation, fell into complete confusion.

Although I knew that Cao Xing’s actions might have some intention, it was a little too strange.

Cao Xing knew that they were thinking wrongly, coughed twice, and then explained to them the effect of the whip.

After everyone listened, a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

At this time, Cao Xing said: “Then, Andrew, Sarah, let me also give you additional blessings.”

Andrew and Sarah looked at each other and nodded.

Cao Xing drew them one by one.

“Crack!”

“Crack!”

There was a sound of whipping in this deep mine.

Fortunately for Andrew, his skin is rough and fleshy, so the pain has little effect on him.

Sarah on the side was trembling slightly.

When it was Liu Muxue’s turn, she looked at the whip in Cao Xing’s hand with some fear and said softly: “A Xing… me, do I want it too?”

Cao Xing thought for a moment and nodded, “Well, 10% movement speed is a big improvement.”

“Besides, it only takes the first swipe, and the patience is gone.”

Liu Muxue thought for a moment, nodded and said, “Yes.”

Cao Xing didn’t have any extra thoughts and just whipped him away.

“Ugh!”

Liu Muxue let out a muffled groan, and then looked at Cao Xing pitifully.

“It hurts so much…”

Looking at this scene, Cao Xing couldn’t help but think of what happened last night, and for a while, he felt a little angry.

But he soon calmed down.

Cao Xing coughed twice and said, “The situation has been improved, let’s move on.”

Andrew and Assam continued to move forward.

There is a railroad track in the passage that extends deeper.

Cao Xing moved along the route and put away the rails on the ground.

[Railway +1]

[Railway +1]

Not long after walking, Cao Xing had already put away hundreds of meters of rails!

Even when broken down into iron, there are hundreds of pieces! Cao Xing said happily: “Pick up a few more rails and you can connect that coal mine to my territory, greatly increasing the speed of resource collection.”

At this moment, a fork in the road appeared in the mine ahead.

The intersection on the left seems to lead to the depths of the mine, and there is a faint roar of machinery inside.

The intersection on the right is boarded up with a red ‘X’ painted on it.

This seems to be a forbidden area.

Everyone stopped in place, waiting for Cao Xing’s decision.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing said, “Andrew, take down the wooden board. Let me see what’s inside first.”

Andrew obeyed the order and directly waved his huge bear claw and slapped it over.

“Crack! Click!”

The wooden planks were smashed directly, and the scene inside the mine was revealed.

Cao Xing saw that there seemed to be several collapsed mine cars in the mine ahead, and there were some excavated ores scattered around.

The group of mole people seemed to have encountered some kind of situation and stayed here before they had time to evacuate.

Sarah, who was in the shadow, suddenly said: “I sensed a dangerous aura inside…”

Cao Xing frowned after hearing this. Sarah was a level 20 elite monster, and even she felt it was dangerous. This meant that there was some kind of terrifying creature inside.

Cao Xing said: “Sarah, go check it out.”

Sarah nodded and disappeared into the shadows.

“How strong is the second-level monster?”

Sarah thought for a moment and replied: “It should be as strong as me.”

Cao Xing suddenly nodded.

On par with Sarah, it is a level 20 elite monster.

Cao Xing asked: “Are you sure you can deal with it?”

Sarah thought for a moment and replied: “With the additional blessing from the lord, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

“If we cooperate with these two companions, we will basically be sure of victory.”

After hearing this, Cao Xing was determined.

“Very good, let’s go straight in!”

After saying that, Andrew and Assam walked directly towards the mine on the right.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue followed behind.

He soon came to one of the collapsed minecarts, with some ore scattered nearby.

Cao Xing directly connected the mine cart with the ore on the ground and packed it away together.

[Obtain minecart*1, iron ore*31, cursed metal*7, mithril ore*8, mana stone*17, stone block*64…]

“Huh? So many mithril and magic stones?” Cao Xing was delighted.

You know, these are high-grade materials and valuable.

Cao Xing began to check the past.

[Iron Ore: Can be processed in the ore processing plant, 1 piece of ore can be processed into 5 pieces of iron]

[Curse metal: a metal fused with the resentment of the dead]

(Can be used to make some evil alchemy props.) [Mithril Ore: Can be processed in the ore processing factory, 1 piece of Mithril Ore can be processed into 3 pieces of Mithril]

(Note: Level 3 ore processing plant required)

[Magic Stone: A stone containing energy that can provide energy for some special devices. 】

……

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction and looked at the other mine carts on the ground.

Then pack it all up and take it away.

[Obtained mine cart*1, iron ore*42, cursed metal*9, mithril ore*7, mana stone*19, stone block*72…]

In addition to these, there are also railroad tracks on the ground.

[Get rails*42, get abandoned minecarts*7, get…]

……

Cao Xing followed Andrew Assam all the way, and then packed up the various ores on the ground and took them away.

Liu Muxue is also helping to collect.

While picking it up, he said with a delighted smile: “Axing, there are a lot of iron ores and a lot of mithril ores!”

Cao Xing nodded, “The harvest from this trip is really good. These ores and mine carts alone make this trip worthwhile.”

Liu Muxue also had the joy of harvest on her face.

Obviously, the Mole Man Mine is a high-level area.

At least with the current strength of the survivors, there is no way to get in.

As for Cao Xing, because he had three generals under his command, he was able to enter the Mole Man Mine to hunt for treasure at this level.

The harvest can be said to be quite abundant.

So far, Cao Xing has put away nearly 200 knots of rails.

Fortunately, the survivor’s [Carry Backpack] function has 20 storage spaces. Materials of the same type can be stacked into 400 pieces together.

As for large items like mine carts, nearly 100 can be stacked, occupying only 1 grid of space.

The carry-on backpack is quite large.

Everyone started to move on.

Until they reached the depths of the passage.

The light here is always dim.

However, as Cao Xing took out the magic stone torch from his backpack, the darkness inside was immediately dispelled.

They noticed that some white spider webs appeared on the top and sides of the mine.

The further you go, the denser the cobwebs become.

There were even some large nets that filled up the passages, blocking everyone’s way.

At the same time, an evil and powerful aura hit his face!
