regarding the ghost-man pit, third brother hu talked on and on, revealing a lot of information.
complete, scattered, expired, the latest ... everything was available.
however, bai wushang was mainly concerned about two things.
are there any lightning scorpions? what was the risk level?
third brother hu patted his slightly plump chest and promised again, ”
“there must be. this mine is very messy, with all kinds of ores mixed together.”
” however, the most abundant resources were elemental ores, especially earth, fire, wood, and lightning.
bai wushang’s brows rose. he was a little surprised, but it was also within reason.
the thunder scorpion was not a carnivore. its main diet covered plant roots, animal bones, ores, and so on. it had a special preference.
it was not like xiao ci, who only focused on the essence of energy and had a high demand for lightning.
however, if there were similar conditions, being able to come into contact with the corpse of a lightning-type beast, spirit medicine, and ore would also be beneficial to individual development.
therefore, there were traces of its habitat.
if the ghastly human pit had lightning elemental ores, then the chances of the lightning scorpions appearing would increase greatly, which was an important reference value.
” three months ago, someone saw it there. it wasn’t just one, but a whole nest of three lightning scorpions, ” third elder hu said.
“it’s a pity that i don’t have the strength to hunt them down and was forced to escape.”
afraid that bai wushang would stir up trouble, he added, ” “but i still have to remind you.”
” due to excessive mining, the ecosystem of the ghostman pit has seriously collapsed, and many native species have disappeared. ”
” and the number of lightning scorpions is small to begin with. most of the time, they hide underground and are not easy to catch. ”
“so you have to be mentally prepared. it won’t be found in a day or two.”
” if you’re unlucky and can’t even meet one in a month, don’t blame my information for being problematic. ”
bai wushang faintly nodded and asked a few more questions, making up his mind.
the ghost-man pit, i’ve decided to choose you!
the distance was acceptable. it would take half a day to fly from longjing city.
there was no problem with the risk level.
bai wushang felt that his strength was still sufficient.
moreover, this underground environment was very suitable for him.
he had the item seeking compass, the little rabbit galaxy, and his spatial perception.
not only was he looking for the lightning scorpions, he might even be able to get some of the remaining ores and earn some money.
if they could find lightning elemental ore, they could even fill xiao ci’s food and strategic reserves.
moreover, the cost of buying it and hunting for it were different, and it could save a lot of money.
after adding and subtracting these conditions, bai wushang was tempted.
he left the hunter association.
to be on the safe side, bai wushang went to other markets to collect information.
third brother hu’s one-sided statement was not very reliable, so he had to make a comparison and prove it.
as it turned out, this old man was more credible.
after searching for a while, he didn’t dare to say that his information was perfect, but after some integration, it was the most comprehensive.
bai wushang no longer hesitated and immediately left longjing city.
riding on the lightning blade mantis, he traveled along an uncharted road.
on the way, he saw mountains, rivers, grasslands ... the aura of life was everywhere.
the geological resources of this area were far beyond that of the endless sand region.
he continued to open up the milky way and xiao ci’s horizons, refreshing their knowledge.
at two in the afternoon, they arrived at their destination.
bai wushang temporarily put away the lightning blade mantis and summoned the three-eyed demon ape.
it was too brazen to have an ancient species by his side.
since he was new here, he decided to keep a low profile and explore the environment first.
as far as the eye could see, there was a hill paved with yellow soil that stretched for dozens of kilometers.
in the center, there was a very, very large, deep pit with an irregular, deformed shape.
bai wushang stood on top of the deep pit and looked down.
the deepest part was about two to three hundred meters deep, and the terrain was uneven.
there were some strange rocks, but most of them were covered in crushed stones.
seven to eight mercenaries in strange clothes were walking in the pit in groups of two or three.
their direction was either the vertical tunnels on the ground or the hundreds of mountain tunnels on the edge of the valley.
compared to the huge pit, these people and their pets were just a few black dots the size of sesame seeds.
it gave people a feeling of a sparse population, bleak and declining.
“five or six years ago, this place should still be a complete hill.”
” because of the appearance of the ore, people swarmed here and dug a deep pit, a valley. ”
bai wushang seemed to have understood something. ” as the surface mining becomes more and more difficult, the production volume gradually decreases. ”
” they will definitely continue to dig deeper and deeper in all directions. ”
“i’m afraid it’s like an ant’s nest down there ...”
with a thought, four translucent energy wings appeared on both sides of bai wushang’s back and extended outward.
the armor could not stop the activation of such secret skills.
the only negative effect was that the increase in weight would slightly reduce the flexibility and flying speed of the wings.
this was something that couldn’t be helped. there were gains and losses.
however, for the sake of self-protection, the importance of the lightning armor had already surpassed that of the insect wings.
in fact, with xiao ci around, it was acceptable for this secret skill to be reduced to a support or substitute.
it slowly descended to the bottom of the pit.
the three-eyed demon ape was inseparable from bai wushang. it immediately jumped out of the shadow behind bai wushang and followed him.
” let’s go. we’ll randomly choose a bigger tunnel. we’ll search randomly for the first day. ”
bai wushang remained calm and set the tone for today’s operation.
just as he approached a passage, he saw two figures.
a middle-aged man and a young man.
half of their protective gear was stained with blood, and the bull and spider they were riding on were dispirited and injured.
from a hundred meters away, he saw a strange figure in silver-gray armor.
the middle-aged master frowned. without saying a word, he led the young man and quickly retreated.
although the lightning armor had been made as plain and low-key as possible under bai wushang’s request, it was still a very simple armor.
however, it was rare to see a person wearing full-body protective gear, and he was alone.
in addition, that robust demonic ape didn’t look like it was to be trifled with.
the middle-aged master only let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the armored man had no intention of chasing after him after he had retreated more than a thousand meters away.
bai wushang silently watched the other party leave. after a little consideration, he changed to another tunnel and advanced.
with the help of the illumination talisman and spatial perception.
the tunnel was very wide, with an average height of nearly twenty meters and a width of more than thirty meters.
the size was normal.
it was rare for masters to collect ores by themselves.
most of the time, it was the pets who did the work. for example, those who were good at digging holes and scouting were all good choices for mining.
the little rabbit yawned and stuck its head out of the storage bag at its waist. it looked around with its big silver-white eyes, which were slightly curious.
bai wushang motioned for it to calm down and rest for a while more.
there was no rush to activate the ground probe skill when he first entered the tunnel.
this skill wasn’t something that could be used without end, and it consumed a lot of energy.
the first passage must have been visited by countless people. even if they could find valuable ores, they were bound to be scattered and inefficient.
bai wushang thought that when they went deeper into a certain area, there would be fewer traces of human and beast activities, and it would be possible to have a big harvest.
