Global Mining.

No matter where the whale drags the boat, it will be an adventure.

Dachun ate as quickly as possible to replenish his strength. At this time, the boat was getting faster and faster, and the fishing line and fishing rod were also being pulled with a creaking sound.

You must paddle to keep up, otherwise the fishing line may break! And with this huge increase in speed, maybe you can master an enhanced version of boat driving skills?

"Shirley, row together!"

At this moment, what was supposed to come finally came!

——System prompt: Your team triggers the hidden skill "Module Combination"!

Dachun was shocked again. It was not the sailing skills he had imagined! Module combination? ! This name doesn't sound so magical as a game, but more like a background programming skill. Could it be that tying together boats and fishing rods is a module combination?

Shirley was also very excited: "I seem to have discovered a skill, and my tailoring skills have improved!"

Also used in tailoring? This is really high-end that I had never heard of during the public beta!

Dachun was excited: "Let's hold on!"

The proficiency continued to surge, but another ship could not withstand the pressure of such high speed and creaked. Shirley had to use the frost spell again to mend the ship. This time, Shirley's body burst out with the magical blue light unique to the upgrade.

Shirley was overjoyed: "I feel the surging power of the water element, and my meditation skills have reached the intermediate level!"

Damn it, this old whale obviously knows magic, otherwise where would the power of the water element come from? And being able to do magic is within the realm of sea monsters, and it is indeed enough to qualify for S-level!

After a while, a small desert island appeared ahead, and the whale slowed down.

——System prompt: You have entered unknown waters. The current sea area channel and world channel are unavailable.

Dachun was surprised. Was this a special scene?

What treasure adventures will there be? I am looking forward to the spring even more.

Then the whale rushed into a beach inlet on the island and was almost stranded after half-dive.

This is?

Got it, this place can block the wind and waves, and it can be cleaned in all directions.

Dachun continued to dig underwater, and his mining experience surged again. Soon the underwater mining technique reached level 3. At the same time, the friendliness of whales has increased significantly. This feeling is not only a sense of security, but also a treasure.

Just when I was relieved, the system prompted again - Warning! Your hand hoe is corroded by acid ore and its durability is about to run out. Please repair or replace the tool in time.

Damn it! ! ?

Da Chun was confused, the hoe fell off the chain at the critical moment! When I went out to sea, I only wanted to practice boating and fishing. I didn't even think about mining. I didn't bring a spare hoe at all!

What to do now? Could it be done with bare hands? It is impossible to dig with bare hands normally, but Dachun tried to pull shells with bare hands. The feeling of grabbing sand from the wall cannot be said to be completely ineffective. It can only be said that the proficiency has not improved at all.

Shirley also discovered the dilemma: "What should I do?"

Now I can only rely on her to fiddle with it. Dachun thought about thermal expansion and contraction: "Can you use your frost technique to freeze the shells on it first and see if they can freeze or crack after melting?"

"I'll try!"

So Shirley started to touch the shell with her hand and cast a spell. Just like mending the ship before, a wave of frost spread along the palm of her hand and quickly froze the surrounding areas.

Dachun tried to peel it off, but it was clear that it was motionless and stronger.

It doesn't matter. It's expected. The stronger it is frozen now, the more it will collapse when it thaws. I believe that by freezing other parts of the whale, this part should be able to melt by now. I will try it with my bare hands then...

The whale is also very cooperative. After the top of its back is frozen, it will turn over on its belly to continue to be frozen.

Dachun worshiped this whale's intelligent five-body body. It was not impossible for it to become an S-class wanted monster that could not be defeated for a long time based on its intelligence!

After more than an hour of preparation, the whole body of the whale had been frozen. Then when I looked at the place where it was initially frozen, I found that it had melted and there was even a crack!

Dachun reached into the slit and pulled it again. It was indeed a little loose and still leaking water, but a red light exploded in front of his eyes:

——System prompt: Warning! Your hands are corroded by the acid, and your health is -10! Once the corrosion is severe, your hands will be seriously injured and unable to be used.

Damn it! Is it so miserable with bare hands?

But at this moment, the whale snorted and spit out a shiny bubble of water to wrap up the big spring.

——System prompt: You have been blessed by the purification of the whale, effectively resisting the corrosion of the acid, and you have been blessed by the power of the whale.

Damn it, you can actually give blessings! !

Looking at the rapidly healing hands, Dachun was shocked. This whale had simply become a god after a long illness! This is not a sea monster. It is clearly a sea god who can trigger high-end skills and heal and bless! !

Dachun immediately had the idea of ​​creating a god.

In fact, the public beta festival that just passed was itself a sacrificial activity launched with fireworks and wine. The village chief could also launch it, so could it be used on this whale?

Finally, his hands recovered, and Dachun was so excited that he pulled hard - crunch! A large piece of shell like half of the wall was pulled down!

This crushing feeling is a hundred times stronger than hitting it with a hoe!

——System prompt: Congratulations! You have successfully understood the talent skill "The Essence of Mining", your unarmed ability has been strengthened, and you will make great progress in mining.

——System prompt: Congratulations! You have mastered the essence of mining, your underwater mining skills have been upgraded to Intermediate Level 1, and you have obtained achievements: physical strength +8, weight bearing +8.

Dachun was shocked, he actually understood the most difficult talent skill! The mining technique has been upgraded eight levels in a row to the intermediate level! Could it be that it's so easy because of the whale's bubble blessing?

Shirley was also pleasantly surprised: "I have learned the magic mining technique!"

Damn it, is this even possible? Isn't this the explosion of the mage group in the game's opening credits? This is the ceiling of the mining industry, much better than those reckless men wielding hoes.

Dachun was overjoyed: "Okay, you can save a lot of tuition by understanding it yourself!"

Shirley was not tired at all: "I'm here to help too!"

Yes, this is a great time to improve your skills, let’s work together...

With Shirley's genuine "Magic Explosion", the shell-pulling speed becomes even more devastating. Dachun's intermediate underwater mining also takes off. Instead of decreasing, the proficiency is higher. This is obviously the higher the mining skill, the better the cleaning effect. Good positive cycle!

According to this momentum, not to mention there is no obstacle to reaching the senior level, even breaking through the expert threshold in one fell swoop seems to be a matter of course?

Therefore, to improve your mining skills, you don’t have to try your luck to dig some rare minerals, nor do you have to toss with some epic mineral hoe. You should also give up tools and dig with your bare hands and return to nature! Of course, the prerequisite is to find this kind of shell mine and such a magical whale.

But looking at the whale's increasingly clean body, Dachun felt inexplicably confused. There were not enough shells. If it ended like this, I'm afraid he would have reached a higher level. How could it be so convenient in the future...

While I was busy, the silver light shone between the sky and the sea, and the moon came out. The beauty of this open space was really shocking.

From this, Dachun could see the whole island clearly. There were no trees or grass, but the oval stones on the beach emitted light like white and yellow gems - what was this stone?

Shirley was shocked on the spot: "Could this glow be... I'll go up and have a look!"

Shirley stepped into the water and landed on the island regardless of getting her clothes wet. Dachun followed closely and saw that these stones not only glowed, but also emitted black smoke that represented the smell. Black is the stench.

Shirley stroked a white stone, and her excited voice changed: "This is ambergris, the white one is the best after being exposed to the sun for hundreds of years!"

Dachun's heart was shocked, holy shit, there really is a treasure!

That's right, this is a sperm whale, named after the specialty top spice ambergris. It is said that sperm whales like to hunt giant squid in the deep sea, but they cannot digest some bones and secrete a large amount of mucus to wrap them up and then spit them out. Because it is lighter than water and will not sink in the sea, it turns into gem-like amber after being exposed to the sea for hundreds of years, so it is also called "grey amber". It smells bad but has a peculiar aroma when burned. So what's going on in this game world...

Shirley continued to be excited: "These gray ones are inferior, and the rest of the brass ones are average, but this brass color is more expensive than gold. The total value of this batch of spices is unimaginable!"

Price compared to gold! ?

Looking at the dozens of large and small spices scattered on the island, Dachun suddenly became alert!

Is this definitely a reward for a professional mission? Even if it is an S-level wanted mission, the reward is more than a hundred times higher than the standard. According to the logic of the game that has always been stingy with players, this is simply impossible! Unless - there is only one possibility, this must be a backdoor left by the game developer for the investment boss!

Because this game is derived from the algorithm of digital currency mining. The "algorithm" is the "digital currency mining farm" that lives near the power plant. Hundreds of thousands of computers are constantly burning electricity to produce digital currency. This determines that this game is not like those unscrupulous game operators who can buy gold coins and send equipment as they please. They can only place it in advance during the development of the game and wait for related users to get it. Once the game is officially launched, the world is closed, everything follows the algorithm, and the developer cannot interfere...

Think again about the strange setting of this whale "the weaker it is, the more successful it is" and such a magical high-end, it is obviously to facilitate the boss to come and receive it as soon as possible!

In a word, I might have killed Mr. Hu! It's a big deal!

Thinking of this, Dachun's blood surged up and his back felt cold!

But Jinshan is right in front of you, let alone a big boss, even if the sky falls, you still have to catch it! This is human nature!

Dachun forced himself to calm down: "The price is higher than gold? Then wouldn't we make a fortune if we have so much?"

Shirley calmed down, but her words were still trembling: "This one wants a franchise. With our low status, it is difficult to sell the price. We can only be bought at a low price or confiscated by officials... Only those big chambers of commerce can summon all the nobles in the city. The gold price can only be achieved by promoting it! What’s more, the ambergris has a peculiar smell, and there is so much of it. The thieves’ guild in the city will definitely be watching during the transportation. They have very powerful treasure-hunting magic pets!”

really! Like alcohol, a franchise is required. The reputation of the Thieves Guild was so powerful that even if it meant a bottle of wine, Vivian would have to arrange a carriage to take her there. In front of them, I can't have any luck as a gambler, otherwise my chance of turning around will be gone.

Dachun was extremely confused: "Are you buried here and waiting to come back later?"

Shirley said: "Actually, many pirates did not dare to transport the property they stole directly into the city. They buried it on various small desert islands and tried their best to figure it out. That's why there are so many real and fake pirate treasure maps on the black market... …”

Should I bury the island too? No, if the boss finds out that something is missing, the whole island will dig deep!

Then bury it in the sea, and you have to bury it far away! Spices are not magic items, and they are probably difficult to find by treasure hunting professions. Then you still need to practice swimming! However, this island is accessed through the plot mission of intercepting the whale, so the first priority is to wait until the whale mission is completed. Maybe there will be a better way.

As his mind raced, Dachun discovered under the moonlight that the whale's skin was still full of pits and pus and blood: "Is this? We only peeled off the outer layer?"

Shirley frowned: "It seems that the inner layer has been connected to the whale skin. This cannot be eliminated by mining. It may require medicine! But I have never heard of any doctor who can treat whales."

Dachun remembered something his grandfather said: "Grandpa said that these shell barnacles are acid stone ores that can be used for alchemy. Can an antidote be extracted from these acid stone ores?"

Shirley was shocked: "Learning alchemy is very expensive! And the alchemy in Oak City is authentic."

Dachun was very generous: "Ambergris is in front of us, no matter how expensive it is, you can think about it, not to mention that alchemy and mages are a good match! There is a beginner class in Black Iron City, right?"

Shirley said: "Yes! It's next to the mage class."

That's good. Players can't become mages by training mages. Only by letting mages learn alchemy can they learn the essence.

"Clean up the whale first..."
