National Games Challenge: Awaken SSS-level talent at the beginning

Of course, Qin Xiao would not go to mine in person, but summoned two subordinates and three magic-weave war puppets.

Let them mine, although some are overqualified, but the efficiency is first-class!

Xiaobai and Xiaohei still held the tools given by Qin Xiao in their hands, while the three magic-weave war puppets were directly good at planing. After all, they were made of magic-weave steel, which was much harder than ordinary tools.

In less than 10 minutes, 100 units of raw ore were collected (one unit = 100 catties).

Before coming down, Qin Xiao deliberately emptied his carry-on bag. Each slot can only hold 10 units of raw ore. After several upgrades, Qin Xiao's carry-on bag now has 100 slots.

Excluding the necessary item space, he has a total of 90 grids to hold the raw magicweave ore.

That's 900 units and can be filled in about an hour.

This means that he has to go back and forth to the mine every hour, not to mention the trouble, and the danger of being discovered, which is very inefficient.

But there is no other way at the moment. Space element gems are needed to upgrade the portable package again. The synthesis rate of this kind of thing is extremely low. There is only one person selling it in such a huge magic pattern steel city. The price is ridiculously high. It is not intended to be sold at all, but It's for showing off.

Not long after, there was a rumbling sound outside.

Qin Xiao collected his subordinates and war puppets, picked up the pickaxe and came to the door to check the situation.

It turned out that the mine carts in the mine next door were full, and the miners drove the carts to transport the raw ore outside.

Fortunately, these mine carts are driven by magic power, without manpower, otherwise these miners will not be able to push the huge mine cart even if they are exhausted.

The miner driving saw Qin Xiao and gave him a surprised look.

There is such a tall and strong miner in this mine?

Eighty percent of them are just here, right?
No matter how strong you are, when you come to this kind of place, sooner or later you will be exhausted to the point of skin and bones!
After a glance, the miner looked away, and didn't even bother to say a word to Qin Xiao.

After all, the driving distance is a rare time to rest.

Looking at the mine cart next to him, Qin Xiao discovered a problem. If he did not transport the mine outside, the supervisor would find the problem sooner or later.

He summoned three magic-weave war puppets, and asked them to fill the bottom of the mine cart with the excavated earth and rock waste, then sprinkle a layer of raw ore on the surface, and drove the cart out.

Along the way, I also met many other miners who drove out. They were all skinny, listless, and looked like they were dying, which was really uncomfortable.

The mining of this magic pattern ore is primitive and cruel. Every piece of magic pattern steel ingot extracted is stained with the blood, sweat, and even life of these miners.

Following the mine carts all the way to the outside, there is a huge open-air ore storage yard, where all the mine carts are unloaded, and then the workers perform simple sorting and screening.

Because it was night, there were very few people working here, and there were not many supervisors. Qin Xiao chose a remote corner and unloaded a load of earth and rocks.

Certainly not during the day.

After unloading the car, Qin Xiao quietly disappeared, returned to the camp, put the raw ore into the warehouse, and then made a few spaces in the backpack again, so that he could carry more ore at once.

But this does not improve efficiency much.

"Hey, it would be great if I can master the smelting technology of ore with magic patterns!"

[Reminder: The challenge task has been unlocked: collect 0/1500 units of magic pattern raw ore, reward: magic pattern ore smelting furnace! ]
"Lying grass?!"

Seeing the prompt that suddenly appeared, Qin Xiao was startled: "What the hell, has everything come true?"

1500 units of magic pattern raw ore, this is an impossible task for ordinary players, but for Qin Xiao, it only takes half an hour.

Besides, the task is just to collect it by yourself, and it doesn't say to transport it to the designated location, so even if it is mined and stored in the mine, it will be counted.

Putting on the miner's uniform again, and returning to the open-pit mining site, Qin Xiao drove back to the underground mine.

He put the mine cart directly at the door, blocking his sight, and then summoned Xiaoheixiaobai, the three magic-weave war puppets, and went into battle to mine crazily!
Mining is heavy physical work, as long as it is a creature, it will be tired, no matter how strong it is, it is impossible to keep doing it.

But the magic-weave war puppet is different. As long as the energy core is sufficient, it will continue to run, and the purpose of its creation is to fight. For it, mining is simply a sledgehammer.

tireless!
And the energy consumption is extremely low.

It is worth mentioning that when a magic pattern war puppet was mining, there was a small problem. After inspection, Qin Xiao found that it was a design defect.

Geniuses like Ke Zan are not perfect and make mistakes.

This design flaw will lead to unfavorable operation of the magic-weave war puppet and increase energy consumption.

It is not difficult to modify it.

[Hint: Magic pattern battle puppet manufacturing experience is improved! ]
[Current finished product manufacturing failure rate: 3%! ]
Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

Solving a design flaw directly reduces the failure rate by 2%!
Sure enough, the more precise the machinery, the better, but problems can't be found only by drawings, and only practice can produce results.

However, this small flaw may not be found in battle. After all, the user's attention is on the enemy, unless it is a special test, but it also has limitations.

What's more, Ke Zan has also produced a lot of finished products, logically speaking, it is impossible for him to let this flaw go unnoticed.

But Qin Xiao was the first to use the magic pattern war puppet to mine.

So a potential hidden danger was discovered.

Soon, the mine was filled with glistening raw magicweave ore.

[Hint: The challenge task has been completed! ]
[Obtain: Magic pattern ore smelting furnace × 1! ]
"finished!"

Qin Xiao wiped the hot sweat off his brow, opened his bag, and found the smelting furnace.

"No, generally this kind of equipment can only be placed in the camp, so I have to go back to smelt it..."

[Reminder: The magic pattern ore smelting furnace is a special equipment and can be placed in any safe area! 】

"Can it still be like this?!" Qin Xiao's heart moved, and he took out the stove directly.

Boom!
A huge dark furnace appeared in front of him.

If the cave was not high enough, I am afraid that it would not be able to be placed successfully.

[Magic pattern ore smelting furnace (Lv1): 10 units of raw ore or ten magic pattern steel ingots can be smelted each time! ]
[Reminder: Add fire element crystals to start operation, smelting time: 10 minutes! ]
Qin Xiao went out to look around, and after confirming that it was safe, he put a fire element gem into the energy bin of the smelting furnace, and then put 10 units of raw ore into it.

boom boom boom~
A scorching flame instantly ignited in the smelting furnace.

Fortunately, it was just hot, and there was no harsh sound, otherwise it would have to attract attention.

10 minute later.

The flame in the smelting furnace was extinguished, and with a bang, a standard-shaped magic pattern steel ingot fell out.

Qin Xiao squatted down to examine carefully.

"Ten units of raw ore are used to smelt one level-10 magic pattern steel ingot?"

He sighed, this efficiency is too low!
The first-level magic pattern steel ingots are not considered finished products, they can only be called intermediate raw materials. They must be refined more than three times before they can have certain value, such as building walls and buildings.

The magic pattern steel ingots refined more than three times will be forged into a standard shape of 30cm x 30cm x 50cm, which is convenient for transportation and use.

As for the piece that Qin Xiao just got, that is, the low-grade raw material after rough processing, the value is very low.

Although the Iron City officials are also controlling, but on the black market, this level of magic pattern steel ingots can be seen everywhere.

Because smelting magic-weave steel ingots is a very skill-testing job, a good craftsman can minimize the success rate and loss rate, while two-handed knives or beginners often smelt the steel ingots to waste.

"I wonder if this smelting furnace can be upgraded?" Qin Xiao did some research and opened the function panel of the magic pattern ore smelting furnace.

"It can be upgraded!" He saw a long list of materials. Although there were a lot of them, they were not rare items. He definitely didn't have them on him. He had to go back to the camp to get them together.

"Forget it, let's make do with it!" Qin Xiao began to mine and smelt steel ingots at the same time, and every once in a while, he would push a cart of earth and rocks out for camouflage.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to go out, he returned to the camp to unload the cargo, and upgraded the smelting furnace to level three by the way!
If you want to go up, you need something called chrysoprase. Qin Xiao has never heard of this material, and he opened the trading bank to search but found nothing.
