Act 278: The strange mining area(1/2)

Fang Yu suddenly turned around and looked into the hall. People came and went in the hall, mostly recruits in adventure outfits, wearing long cloaks, covering the armor and magical warriors below. However, Fang Yu was not paying attention to his peers, but just felt a gaze falling on him.

But his eyes passed through the crowd, and the gaze suddenly disappeared. The little girl from the receptionist guild behind him was still chattering about the abandoned mining area of ​​Nordspitz and the Adventurer guild itself. But Fang Zhu, who felt something, could no longer listen, turned around and nodded to the other party, then turned around and left.

"Freak guy..." The little girl looked at Fang Ling's hurriedly leaving back and muttered strangely.

Walking out of the hall, Luo Hao, the Paparals and Luo Yu, who were guarding outside, came up to meet him. "How is it?" Luo Hao was a little bored and stood up from the pillar beside the gate, stretched his waist and asked. Luo Yu also looked in this direction.

Fang Yu frowned and shook his head at the two of them, winked, and signaled that they would leave here first.

Nottspitz is a city that flourished because of the mining industry. It had been quite prosperous a century or two ago. However, with the mining area closed, the city can now see desolate scenery everywhere. Leaving the central area, it is even more deserted and lonely. The streets are empty and there are almost no pedestrians.

Surrounded by dilapidated buildings, lights are not visible in the black windows, and vegetation is covered with red brick walls. Most of the tall buildings are factories closely related to the mining area in the prosperous era, but now they are empty, the iron gates are half open and unguarded.

The four of them said nothing, there was only a rustling sound under their feet. The quiet environment made the Paparals feel a little creepy. They caught up with two steps and asked sharply, "So what's going on? Someone is following us?"

Fang Yu stopped, looked back and took a look behind him, and waved his hand, and a few golden lights flew out of the clear sky, swaying his wings and gently landed on his hand. "When did you release it?" Parker stared at the scene with wide eyes and couldn't help but ask.

"Just when you are doing nothing and can't stop looking back." Fang Yu replied angrily.

The Paparals were so thick-skinned that they only regarded this as a compliment and hummed twice.

Fang Yu had no choice but to answer Luo Hao: "There are people following us, and there are more than one."

"Who is it?"

"There should be three teams, but they are in the same group."

"Local Guild or?"

"It's mostly a local guild."

Fang Yu was a little strange in his heart that he did not find the master of the gaze in the adventurer guild just now. The gaze seemed to appear for only a moment, then disappeared into the crowd and never appeared again.

But that feeling was too mysterious, and he didn't know how to talk to others for a moment.

Luo Hao reacted: "These people probably followed us all the way from the airport. When did they notice us?"

"I'm afraid it's a little earlier than we thought." Fang Yu remembered the attitude of the little girl in the Adventurers Guild towards her.

The Qihai Brigade is no longer a marginal character who is unknown and has no attention. I am afraid that since the Qihai Brigade’s account entered Hong Kong, it has attracted the attention of interested people.

Luo Hao asked, "Will the other party have anything to do with the people from the Death Guild?"

"The Death Guild is still available to control us now?" The Paparals scoffed at this speculation.

Indeed, the elite group of the Death Arrival Guild has been restricted to Aiyin Bullock and is under investigation. As for the Duchy of Destiny, the other party should not be able to draw more people to come to the Empire to make trouble, and they do not have the courage to do so.

Fang Yu shook his head: "I asked Alisa to check it out. There is no local recruit force in Nordspitz."

Luo Hao was a little surprised, "I thought the power of the candidates was everywhere."

"Indeed, the place of Nordspitz is a little bit cold, but the abandoned mining area is a paradise for adventurers," said Fang Ling. "Miss Alissa also believes that there is no power to call the caller here because there is something hidden underground."

"You mean the Imperial?"

Fang Zhu nodded.

During the Adventurer Guild, he found out that someone took the lead and took the person away first. He guessed that even the person behind the scenes should have no connection with it.

Although the little girl from the Adventurers Guild told him that the person who took the craftsman was the convener, it didn't mean much. The convener could also cooperate with the Aboriginal people, or even be employed by the Aboriginal people. Just like the relationship between the Death Advent Guild and the Hawk family.

Those who are following them now point this point explicitly or implicitly. Even if the local convener is interested in the Qihai Brigade, there is no need to contact them in such an unfriendly way. The attitude shown by the other party is more like a kind of surveillance.

Who will monitor the Qihai Brigade?

It was obviously their first time to come to Nordspits.

The only conclusion that makes sense is the stakeholders, and the only stakeholder among the Seven Seas Brigade in this abandoned mining area is the tower magic furnace.

"But why do the imperial people have to make this trouble," Luo Hao asked back, "If they really don't plan to let others intervene, they just need to block this mining area. The Empire Workshop represents more or less the power of the Oshu people, and they don't have this ability."

"I'm also a little confused," Fang Rong frowned, "Do you know the earth element?"

"Earth element?"

Luo Hao reacted, "Are you talking about the elemental creature that lives underground?"

Fang Zhu nodded, "When do you think the earth elemental creatures will move to the shallow layer of the earth?"

"Elemental creatures are creatures with affinity with elemental power and generally do not leave areas where elements are active," Luo Yu thought for a moment and replied. "Unless the environment in which they originally lived has undergone a huge change, they will be forced to leave the ground and come to the shallow surface. However, elemental creatures that have lost their habitat will generally become irritable and aggressive."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "That's right," Fang Rong glanced at the latter with appreciation, "This is consistent with what I've found out."

"Wait," Luo Hao had a bad premonition, "Don't tell me, there are a large number of invading earth elements under the abandoned mining area, right?"

"almost."

"What does it mean almost?"

"The meaning is that even if it is not even close, it is not far away," Fang Rong replied. "People from the Imperial Royal Geological Society found that the groundwater under the mine was exhausted, causing the mine channel to settle. During the joint restoration process with the Artisan Association, a large number of soil elements surged from the bottom, causing the mine to be paralyzed to this day."

Luo Hao hesitated for a moment: "Do you think...?"

"On the surface, this seems to be a series of accidents," said Fang Rong. He already felt that he had vaguely grasped something, "but in fact it doesn't seem that simple. If there were originally an aquifer under the mining area, how could the soil elements live in that place? Where the soil elements live, the elemental force is enriched and the geological structure is stable, it is impossible for mineral duct settlement to occur, unless..."

"Unless someone digs under that," Luo Hao's eyes lit up. "These people destroyed the soil element layer, which naturally caused the mine channel to sink, and the soil elements that lost their homes also swept the upper layer of the entire mining area in a rage. So what are the imperial people doing? There are no valuable minerals under the soil element layer."

Fang Zhu shook his head gently.

If possible, he wanted to figure out what the Imperials were doing. The Oshu found a tower magic furnace in the abandoned mining area of ​​Nordspitz. It was originally thought it was just a coincidence, but now it seems that the amount of underground engineering on the other side seems to be much larger than expected?

Could it be that just to find out the origin of the magic furnace, the entire Nordspits underground mine was turned upside down, but there was no need to go deeper under the elemental layer?

"What should I do?" Luo Hao asked, "It seems that the situation below the mining area is somewhat beyond our expectations."

If it was something else, maybe they had already left.

But Fang Ling told them the meaning of the magic furnace.

They have seen all the star devices in the wreck of the ship, but the research results are still a bit far from the use of the Seven Seas Brigade. However, the zero-type magic furnace can immediately improve the utilization efficiency of all the magic furnaces of the Seven Seas Brigade.

The Zero Magic Furnace is the only design that can match the Zero Crystal. It would be fine if you don’t know that its drawings are still in the world. Fang Yu would have to spend some time to complete it bit by bit. But the original design is likely to be underground in the abandoned mining area of ​​Nordspits. It is hard for them to leave just now before they have conducted in-depth investigations.

Fang Yu turned his gaze behind him.

There were a few sneaky figures in the alley, but those people obviously hadn't noticed that they had been exposed.

"Anyway, throw off your tail first."

This is a good suggestion. Luo Hao and Luo Yu did not object, but the Paparals are the ones who are really responsible for the actual operation. This self-proclaimed King of Nightingale is not good in other aspects, but the level of dizziness in people is first-class.

There was a clockwork fairy in the sky to monitor it, and it was difficult for the other three groups of people to use their advantages. After walking back and forth in the winding alleys, they threw away the people who were following behind. Then the four of them returned to the airport to get along with the others.

In the past, most of the adventures of the Qihai Brigade were temporary, or they happened to travel somewhere, so they often had no way to start if they wanted to prepare.

But now that we know that we will go deep into the underground of the abandoned mining area, there are countless violent earth elements below. Of course, we have to discuss it in advance. Be prepared and divide the troops into several groups to inquire about the underground area of ​​the mining area, and most importantly, whether there is a dead silent area below.

However, most of the information sent back is pretty good. Although there are many weirdnesses underground in this mining area, it seems that the Imperial people did not block the mining area. Many conveners went deep into the mining area to carry out the task of clearing and rescue, and brought back a lot of useful information.

Even some areas have a large amount of earth elements, and some areas have stronger attacks on earth elements. Some people are publicly sold such map information. Miss Nightingale and Miss Shipman, who are responsible for intelligence collection, did not save money, and Lin Lin bought a lot of them back.

Judging from the intelligence, there should be no dead zone underground in the mining area. According to the news sent back from the Resurrection Temple, there has been no missing information registration in the mining area in the past six months. What the callers fear most is not death, but disappearance.

Death is nothing more than the loss of starlight, and disappearance may very well mean that there is an unknown dead silent area in the underground area.

However, even though they collected all kinds of information, they found a local guide from the local Adventurers Guild. The guide did not lead them deep into the mine, but found another road to the abandoned mine area for them.

That guide was actually a 'gray dagger' person.

"Gray Dagger" is a better name, but it is actually a branch of the local thieves' Brotherhood in Nordspitz. Before the Big Catman and Miss Aitela left, they were very good at dealing with these people in the gray field. And now, this task has fallen on Miss Nightingale's head.

Fortunately, she is also a Nightingale herself, and she is considered the "her own person" of the Brotherhood of Thieves.

The "gray dagger" told them that there was far more than one entrance to the abandoned mining area. Many organizations and local forces had their own ways to enter the mining area. The one he told them was just a common use by some smugglers.

Nottspitz is close to the border of the empire. With this complex mining area, smuggling activities have never stopped. The Gray Dagger itself is the best. As for bringing adventurers into the mining area, it is just to make some extra money.

"Did adventurers all enter the mine in this way?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Luo Wei asked.

The mine tunnel that was robbed was narrow and low. The man with a gray dagger walked in front with an oil lamp. Every distance, you could see reinforced by wooden stakes. The light shaking and extending forward in the endless darkness.

The man from Gray Dagger heard her question, looked back at the others, and replied, "Of course not. If you take the regular path and take the task from the Adventurer Guild, you can just enter the mining area normally. But you are different. You have to go deep into the mining area to make a fortune, of course you can't go through the formal channel--"

"Why?"

"Because there are Imperial Army guarding those places, and you do not have the provisions of the Adventurers Guild, they will not let you go deeper."

"What about you guys, have you gone deep into the mining area?"

"We?" the man with the gray dagger shook his head. "We usually don't go deeper. We have our own way. We don't have to go down there and take risks. I'll leave if I'll send you to the mining area later."

Luo Wei nodded curiously when she heard this.

Fang Yu looked at her and found that it was not just senior Luo Wei. Xiaoyao and Shui Wuming were also in this team, but also Liu Liyue who was hanging from behind. The delegation originally said that they would take a week off for all contestants, so Shui Wuming took Luo Wei to join their team.

The Elite craftsman lady said there was nowhere else to go—

But Fang Yu roughly understood that the other party was sent by Virus, and he didn't know what medicine the iceberg goddess had taken, so why did she seem to be able to pull out a layer of wool from the Qihai Brigade?

Never give up.

And Luo Wei's side was naturally sent by Ms. Ming. The purpose was to monitor him and prevent him from forgetting the training time - this is what Ms. Ming said.
