Legend of the Elven Investigator
Chapter 5 The Dark Stone and Escape
This is a whole piece of sedimentary rock mineral, and there are even fossil traces of some ancient organisms on the surface. In the center of the circle of textures, there is a special ore that emits black light.
The ore presents an irregular polyhedron shape, and each cut surface is as smooth as if it has been cut, and it is tightly embedded in the sedimentary rock minerals.
If this mineral hadn't been broken to reveal part of the special ore inside, no one would have thought that there was an extremely precious evolutionary stone inside.
"This, this, this, shouldn't it be the Stone of Darkness?" Shinpei couldn't believe what he saw in front of him. He had information about this type of evolutionary stone in his memory.
According to his understanding, the Stone of Darkness is a special ore necessary for the evolution of the Dark Crow, Dream Demon, and the lamp ghost and double scabbard in the Hezhong area.
And their evolved forms, Gentleman Crow, Dream Demon, Crystal Lantern and Sword Sword Monster are very powerful elves, enough to serve as the main force of elite trainers.
Moreover, Dark Crows are widely distributed in Sinnoh, and Dream Demons can occasionally be encountered by trainers. Therefore, the demand for Dark Stones in Sinnoh far exceeds that of Fire Stones, the first-class evolutionary stones, and the price will naturally rise.
"Although I don't know how much this evolutionary stone can sell for, it's enough for me." Shinpei smiled from ear to ear, saying that horses can't be fat without night grass, and people can't be rich without windfall.
He is already dinged poor, and it would be great to have a sum of money for emergency.
"However, how to get out this dark stone? If the outer layer of sedimentary rock is broken, will there be any damage to the dark stone?" Shinpei suddenly thought of a special problem. This dark stone is a rough stone, which has not been mined and processed yet.
This has fallen into his blind spot of knowledge, all the evolutionary stones picked up in the pm game are complete evolutionary stones, who knows how these evolutionary stones are taken out from the original stones.
After thinking for a while, Shinpei still decided to let Haoli do it directly, break open the outer layer, and take out the inner core.
"Please, please, please, don't break it." Shinpei prayed in his heart, Haoli was not soft on his hands, and a hand knife slashed the outer rock shell precisely, and a shiny dark stone fell on the palm of his hand.
The Dark Stone feels warm to the touch, as if it is emitting heat, and each facet exudes clear light, which is more stunning and moving than diamonds.
If this dark stone is used as jewelry, some people should like it very much.Shinpei thought.
Carefully hide the Stone of Darkness in the interlayer of the chest. This stone is about the size of a small egg, and it is not conspicuous when hidden.
After getting a precious evolutionary stone, Shinpei didn't intend to stay any longer.Although there may be undiscovered rare ores in this train, the most urgent task is to leave the underground tunnel and return to the surface.
"It's too courageous, and it's easy to be strangled to death."
For money, Zhenping knows that being too greedy will eventually lead to disaster, and it is already an unexpected joy to have a dark stone in the account.
Jogging in the direction of the railroad tracks, Shinpei became more and more convinced that this was the right path.
Because this road is an uphill road.In this underground environment, going uphill means being closer to the ground and closer to getting out of trouble.
After running for a while, Shinpei stopped to rest for a while.This burst of running was a great test of physical strength.
"When you go out, you must step up your exercise. If you don't have a good body, what do you use to travel in this world." Zhenping said, at the same time, a burst of noise from the crowd appeared in the silent environment.
someone!
Shinpei suddenly became excited, and rushed towards the source of the sound without taking a break.
There must be miners in this coal mine. The previous shock was very unexpected, and there may be other unlucky people trapped underground together.
As long as you join the crowd, relying on the power of the crowd is more likely to escape underground.
Finally, in an underground cavity, Shinpei saw a group of uncles dressed as miners.
"Hey, another one ran out, but why does he look like a young man? How did he get here." The head of a strong bearded man yelled, seeing a young man he didn't know, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
"I'm a trainer who came to the Black Gold Coal Mine to train. Can I ask you guys, is there a way to get out?" Shinpei spoke first in a friendly manner, revealing his identity.
The appearance of Zhenping attracted the attention of everyone present. These men who were uniformly dressed in miners' uniforms looked quite embarrassed.
"Get out, we've already gone out if we could, but now this location is the nearest transfer station to the ground. Caesar has already visited the tunnel ahead, and it's also blocked. It may take some work to dig through again." The bearded man said, "Of course, the rock formation here is very strong, so we don't have to worry about being buried alive."
Shinpei immediately understood that the bearded man was probably the head of the miners present, and they were just trapped here together.
"How is it? After counting the number of people, how many brothers are missing?" The bearded man asked an older man in an anxious tone.
"What else can we do? There are 25 miners here, and we have a team of 49 people. When the earthquake happened, it was our turn to work. Now we are all trapped in it."
Big Beard can't even sit still at the moment. As the person in charge of this group, no matter whether he needs to take responsibility after going out, the family members of these old brothers will eat him alive.
"Why am I so unlucky? It just happened when I was on duty. It doesn't make sense. How could there be a sudden earthquake? There must be some unknown reason for this. Damn it, don't let me catch you." The bearded man thumped on the stone wall, silently angry.
Shinpei remained silent in the corner, lest these guys do something thoughtless in this underground environment.
"When you get out, immediately exchange the Dark Stone into cash. Everyone is saving themselves inside, why hasn't the rescue from outside come?" Zhenping was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, the outside world mobilized rescue faster, so how could there be no movement.
Haoli patted Zhenping on the shoulder, and pointed to the wall at one end.
That wall was dusty, and it was some kind of dense rock. At this moment, the dust and floating soil on the surface of the wall kept shaking off, and subtle tremors appeared.
"This is……"
The vibration expanded, and a hole was quickly cracked in the rock barrier, and the hard rock fell to the ground in pieces.
"boom!!"
Shinpei quickly retreated, and a huge rock head poked out from the crack. In the smoke and dust, a huge figure flickered, and there seemed to be a man standing above.
Shinpei's eyes flashed blue.
[Elf: Rock Snake / Gender: ♀ / Level: LV61]
[Characteristic: Broken Armor / Attribute: Rock + Ground / Status: Health]
A level 61 rock snake? !
Shinpei was startled, this big rock snake is definitely not a wild elf, at least at this depth, it is impossible for a wild elf of this level to exist.
Rock snakes like to live in caves, underground and other environments in the wild.But when the strength reaches a certain limit, these wild big rock snakes will drill deep into the ground under the guidance of instinct.
If a wild big rock snake wants to evolve into a big steel snake, there is almost only one way to evolve, except for being lucky enough to pick up a metal coat.That is to devour metal minerals, and use the high temperature and high pressure underground to transform the body.
This strong and scary big rock snake quickly got out of the cave, barely occupying its body in this transit space.A man holding a shovel fell from a height of three or four meters and stood on the ground with slightly bent legs.
This is a man of extremely tall stature, his majestic muscles are covered by a dark gray dustproof cloak, the buttons of the cloak are pushed up by his chest muscles, he is wearing a pair of burlap miner's trousers, and he is holding a pine shovel in his left hand.
"It's the owner of Donggang! He has come to save us!"
"Great, the owner is here and we're fine!"
Seeing the identity of the visitor, everyone present immediately cheered. The arrival of the gymnasium master is undoubtedly a booster.With this strong man present, nothing can stop them from returning to the ground.
"Everyone, please be quiet. Our Black Gold Gym has sent all the trainers to rescue the trapped workers with the help of the elves. Please rest assured, as long as I, Donggang, have a breath, I will definitely take you all back!" Donggang encouraged with confidence, boosting everyone's morale.
With a backbone, even Zhenping felt a sense of peace of mind in his heart.
Being able to become a gym trainer not only has extremely high requirements for strength, but also has a test for personality charm.Donggang is the kind of existence that can be convincing just by standing there.
"Iwamoto, how many people are here, report to me immediately." Dong Gang asked the bearded leader, he needed to know the situation immediately before he could proceed to the next step.
"Return to the owner, we have a total of 25 miners here, and one trainer who got in by mistake, that's him." The bearded man pulled Zhenping over and stood in front of Donggang.
Standing in front of Donggang, Zhenping felt even more burly of this person, and even had an illusion in his mind that this owner might be able to compete with the strength of the fighting elves.
"Don't be afraid, I will take you out. I promise." Donggang's tone did not match his image, and his gentle voice gradually made the fear in Zhenping's heart disappear.
At this moment, although Dong Gang looked indifferent on the surface, his heart was bleeding.
As one of the owners of the Black Gold Coal Mine, Donggang has spent its entire life in this energy center.It is very difficult to mine the black gold coal mine. It is impossible to go deep into the ground with machinery and equipment alone, and mine coal under the interference of wild elves.
Humans, elves and machines must cooperate. In the mining area of the black gold coal mine, these workers work together with elves with great strength such as wrist strength and strength.
This earthquake not only destroyed the structure of the coal mine, but also killed many workers.
In this unfavorable underground situation, falling rocks, collapsing soil layers, and leaking poisonous gas may kill humans for various reasons, not to mention the frightened wild elves.
These workers are the basis for the sustainable operation of the coal mine.
Donggang also felt that the earthquake happened very strangely. His main elves were all in Heijin City. If an earthquake happened, they would definitely be able to notify him as soon as possible.
But now is not the time to think about these things, Donggang has only one thought in mind, and that is to save as many people as possible.
"You guys, return to the surface along the path opened by the big rock snake. I will continue down and try my best to save people." Donggang said in a deep voice.
The ore presents an irregular polyhedron shape, and each cut surface is as smooth as if it has been cut, and it is tightly embedded in the sedimentary rock minerals.
If this mineral hadn't been broken to reveal part of the special ore inside, no one would have thought that there was an extremely precious evolutionary stone inside.
