Destiny Thief

Chapter 104 Exploration of the Mine III
At the bottom of the mine tunnel, there is an underground river that passes through the bottom of the entire rocky mountain, along the edge of the mine, and flows into the deep darkness.

Not many people knew about this matter. In order to avoid unknown dangers, the nobles who first exploited this mine sent professional personnel to seal this section of the tunnel.After that, the bandit leader who was looking for water found it accidentally.

Two construction facilities assembled by metal frames, round pipes, flange discs and opening and closing valves stand in the rushing river, just like the armor that a giant has taken off.

"Yeah—" The mage lady who entered the ascension room opened her eyes wide, exclaiming incessantly.These equipment full of mechanical beauty in the industrial age are completely different from the common alchemy products in this world. For a while, Radia couldn't use her own knowledge to explain what she saw in front of her.

Mr. Glo's Alchemy Mystery!
Radiya stared intently, her azure blue pupils shining with excitement.

"What is this stuff?"

Veteran Scott was also stunned when he saw this.

"Hammer pump."

Oliver has only been here the last time a component was replaced since the water system was completed over two years ago.But he still remembered the name that Glo called this thing, and from that moment on, he almost worshiped the bandit leader-he couldn't imagine what was in Glo's mind, and this bunch of rough and magical equipment didn't need it The water flow can be sent up by any external power.At that time in the Umpton Mine, he saw Glo beating and cutting some iron ingots all day long. He didn't understand why, but after seeing this, he finally understood a little bit.

From the water surface of this underground river to the puddle in the tunnel above the side, there is a considerable drop. These two things are working day after day without stopping, sending water to the sump through pipes— ——He stood by the river, in the dimly lit silence, apart from the sound of the water flow itself, there were waves of slight whimpers, the humming of the air in the pipe being repeatedly compressed by the water flow.

Miss Radia took a step forward. She recovered from her astonishment and nodded in praise, "A great masterpiece!"

It seems that Mr. Bandit is really not simple.Perhaps, this is a branch of engineering alchemy that is not widely known.While looking at it, Radia used mana detection. From the surface and interior of the inconspicuous shell of this pile of equipment, she did not find a little bit of magic power fluctuations, and she did not receive any mana induction after the detection spell was cast.

In other words, there is no magic hub here to provide power——

Ms. Mage suddenly had the urge to disassemble these two "water hammer pumps" and have a look.

……

Afron, Clover Manor.

Another night, after enjoying the sumptuous dinner delivered by the servant, the three young noble knights staying overnight gathered around the dining table and began to discuss matters related to the mission—mainly the preparation of materials in the early stage, the division of labor during the mission, and the principles of ownership of the spoils.

As for the candidates for the mission?Although Miss Knight Alyssa is a woman, she is as fierce and resolute as a man at heart. After accepting the advice of the sword master, she immediately set off to visit the Holy Glory Church and successfully invited a lady who was inaugurated as a priest.Bishop Vera smiled and agreed to her request for personnel.However, correspondingly, because the number of clerics participating in this mission has been expanded to two, the merit points obtained for completing the mission will be equally divided.

In this regard, Alisa did not express any objection.

The priest she invited was a young girl with a thin figure and fair skin almost as white as snow. Her appearance carried most of the characteristics of the Aifa blood, but a pair of smart and lively eyes were rare. Amber, she said when she introduced herself, was an influence from her mother's blood.

Her name is Winnie, Winnie Karami. Judging from her name, she should be from an unknown little nobleman—in the tradition of nobles, besides marriage, joining the church is also a way out for a concubine. Very good choice.

She also came to the manor and sat at the corner of the long table in the room.But she didn't speak much, and her voice was soft and gentle.It was only when Alisa talked about the division of tasks that she asked a few simple questions about responsibilities.

Soon, the list of people participating in the mission was finalized: in addition to the four present, there were Miss Lena Barros, who was good at fire psionics, and the slightly annoying swordsman, Your Excellency.A total of six people, basically in line with the principle of a small number of elite.

The team set off early the next morning to the hilly area outside the city.

The fog melted under the sun, and the team rode their horses all the way, traveling at a very fast speed.When the crypt and mine appeared in sight, Glo turned over and jumped off the little black horse—he had entrusted his servants to go to the "Mermaid Reef" to bring back his mount during his stay at Clover Manor.In that place, due to the careful care of the maid, Miss Lulu, in just half a month, the little black horse has gained a full circle in size. He stroked the fleshy neck under the horse's mane, and it felt very good. .

The crypt and mine were close at hand, and Glo's eyes fell silently on the entrance of the cave—the guards of the city lord's mansion in front of the gold mine learned of their arrival and waved their hands to greet them.

Nodding their heads one by one, Glo walked in first.There were busy figures of miners wielding iron grips and hoes everywhere, and a huge question suddenly came to his mind—in the game, crypts and mines belong to secondary maps.According to reason, monsters would refresh again every once in a while, but in such a scene now, there are no shadows of those cavemen.

Was it cleared by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion?

But Glo has just seen the appearance of the guards. The weapons and armor are clean, and it doesn't look like a battle has taken place at all.As for the miners, there was no expression of panic or fear on their faces, and all of them were numb. The poor farmers were thinking of making a fortune at the beginning, but now they have encountered such a cruel and inhuman tragedy.

Glo sighed to himself, sympathetic but helpless.

A group of people walked straight to the depths of the crypt and mine—in the tunnel, the torches on the rock walls along the way pointed out the direction to go. As inaugural professionals, the six of them walked quickly, and within a short time, they had already arrived at the torches. The end of the light, but continue to move forward, only to find that this turned out to be a blind road.

The whole team had no choice but to go back angrily.

Glo remained silent in the eyes of everyone complaining. He has noticed that the tunnels here are different from those in the Umpton Mine. Sometimes one tunnel turned to another, or simply went back to the original point, which was as complicated as a maze.This further confirms Glo's previous guess——

This place is probably not just a mine, to be precise, it should be a passage connecting the underground world and the surface.Well, if no one has explored it, that hidden copy definitely exists [-]%.

He turned around and shouted, Winnie Karami, the inaugural priest of the Holy Radiance Church, took out a small short-handled staff from his arms, and was about to cast the [Detect Undead] spell.
