Chapter 11 Dark Cave
Imperial Tomb Village.
Scarlet light flashed, and Qi Sheng appeared in front of the underground crystal wall.
Looking at the Bonefire Soul imprisoned in the fourth containment cell, relevant information automatically appeared in his mind:
【Moyan】：
Origin ability effect: Consumes mental power to release death flames that can be controlled by consciousness, causing continuous burning damage to the target (the specific damage is affected by the strength of one's own mental power)
Output of sacrificial power: 10/hour.
……
Raising his right hand, a ball of ink-colored flames formed in the palm of Qi Sheng's hand.
After containing the Bone Fire, the lost power of the Emperor's Omen recovered the fourth piece of the puzzle. His strength increased and he gained the ability to control the ink flame.
Another good news is that players have discovered a missing domain node.
If this domain can be taken back, the area of Dizhong Village will be expanded, and he will also be able to gain a new domain ability.
At this moment, the latest feedback information from the guidance appeared in Qi Sheng’s mind:
[Tip: Obtain the sacrifice "Empty Grain Grass", obtain a sacrificial power of 155.7, extract 30% of the sacrificial power income, and pay the challenger 109 sacrificial power points. 】
"Not bad."
After the words fell, scarlet flames spread from the center of his eyebrows to his whole body.
After switching to the Imperial Omen form, he looked through the space barrier and looked at the group of players exploring the cave.
……
Dark cave.
Entering through the narrow entrance, there is a cave inside.
The further you go down, the wider the space becomes, and there are many forks in the road ahead.
During the exploration process, the players of the kindergarten group accidentally discovered a rock wall inlaid with a large number of crystal stones that shimmered purple.
After focusing their eyes, analytical information to guide feedback appeared in their minds:
[Name: Energetic Stone]:
Spirit Mine Level: 1
Introduction: Low-level spiritual ore containing rich quintessence of energy, which can be used for sacrifices, creation of armed vehicles, etc.
Black Ball: Hahaha, this place is great, and I have found spiritual resources again.
Cute baby: Let’s get started, it’s time to dig for resources.
Drunk Nai: The question is how should we mine?
……
When preparing to attack the rock wall inlaid with crystal stones, they encountered a problem.
The rock wall is hard and it is not easy to dig out the energy stone. There are no tools at hand.
[The shopping mall section of the function panel has mining equipment, which can be purchased by spending sacrificial energy. 】
After listening to the guidance, the players in the kindergarten group called out the function panel one after another. After entering "mining equipment" in the search bar of the mall page, three props appeared on the page.
[Ore Pickaxe (Durability: 100)], [Crystal Breaker Pickaxe (Durability: 2000)], [Gravity Pickaxe (Unlimited)].
The selling prices of these three props are 1 sacrificial power point, 100 sacrificial power points, and 1,000 sacrificial power points respectively.
Along the way, they killed many cursed soldiers along the way, but each cursed soldier could only provide 3-6 points of sacrifice income. They couldn't afford the second-tier mining pickaxe, so they could only choose the most common 1-point sacrifice. Power ore pickaxe.
After the purchase is successful, a jet-black mining pickaxe automatically appears in their space luggage grid.
Just when the players were about to get started, they saw Hammer walking at the front taking out a unique mining pickaxe from his space bag.
This mining pick is completely crystal blue, and after being taken out, it looks like stars falling into the world. The faint blue light is dazzling under the weak light in the mine. You can see little crystals flowing along every trace of the surface.
The head of the mining pick is carved into the shape of a sharp eagle's beak. The hammer is clenched and tried to be swung, dragging a stream of light.
Realizing that Hammer had used the 109 sacrificial points obtained from the sacrifice just now to purchase the second level mining pick, everyone gave him the middle finger.
Iron Hammer: As per the old rules, although I bought a second-grade mining pickaxe, the spar mined out will be shared equally among everyone after statistics. I will not enjoy the profits exclusively.
After hearing these words, the other players nodded with satisfaction.
Then the group of people began to attack the crystal wall, and while they were knocking on it, everyone quickly realized that something was wrong. Black Ball: Damn, this mining pick hit the crystal wall and it made my mouth hurt. The feedback is too real.
Marbles: It’s good to get resources if you have them. Don’t complain and work hard. The game is currently in the development stage when the server has just been launched. Trying to obtain resources to improve our strength will significantly help our future development.
Drunk Nai: You guys are so stupid. The main form does not have attribute blessings. It is easy to switch to monster form to dig.
Saying that, Drunk Nai switched to the form of a black-armored snake on the spot, picked up a mining pickaxe and shook her head against the rock wall.
After a "bang bang" slam, Drunk Nai suddenly stopped, slowly turned his head to look at the stunned brothers beside him, opened his mouth and spat out the pickaxe in his mouth, and said with aggrieved expression:
"Dizziness, want to vomit."
After hearing these words, everyone couldn't help but laugh and mocked Drunk Nai's stupid behavior.
But when everyone looked at the hammer, they suddenly stopped laughing.
I saw that the "crystal breaking pick" in the hammer's hand was easily cut into the rock wall like cutting tofu, and a piece of ore could be drawn out in a few clicks. Now there were two more energy stones at his feet.
Seeing everyone stop, Iron Hammer stopped and turned to look at everyone, with a shy smile on his face:
"Are you shaking your hands? I think it's okay."
What greeted everyone was a uniform middle-finger response.
The work continued after the interlude. During this period, members of the kindergarten group tested the benefits brought by sacrificing energy stones and found that each energy stone can produce 5-15 points of sacrificial income.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Compared to killing Cursed Soldiers, digging Energetic Stones will not gain evolution points (experience points), but the sacrifice power benefits will obviously be higher.
Just as they were working hard against the crystal wall, a dull sound suddenly came from the darkness.
Everyone stopped immediately and looked into the darkness.
"Marbles, turn on perception."
"Okay!"
The marbles in the team that choose the form of the hawk-headed demon will immediately activate the hawk-headed demon's resentful ability.
This ability is like an instinct imprinted in the mind. It does not require proficiency, and the process of using it is as simple as breathing.
Opening his mouth, Marble let out a melodious cry, turning into bursts of sound waves that radiated towards the vicinity.
The scenes within tens of meters nearby were presented as fluctuating images in his mind, and he could clearly see the figure in the darkness at this time.
This is a life that looks like a snail. Its body is covered with a white carapace. The ends of the tentacles extending out of the carapace shine with a faint blue light, like phosphorus fire swimming in the deep sea.
【Iron Shell Insect】
Hunting Level: 8
Target introduction: A low-level monster living underground. It has a hard shell and extremely flexible tentacles. It feeds on underground spiritual ores.
……
After sharing the information in their minds to the team channel, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They were startled when they suddenly heard movement in the dim environment. When they discovered that it was just a hunting level 8 monster, they immediately stopped panicking and turned around to switch to the monster form, killing the monster first before continuing to mine.
"Something's wrong, there are more iron-shelled insects behind!"
From the marble's perspective, more and more iron-shelled insects enter the screen.
At this moment, the Iron-shelled Insects dispersed to both sides, and a pitch-black figure two meters tall came from the darkness, exposed to the light of the torch.
This figure has a humanoid shape, with distinct muscle lines like sculptures, and gray-blue skin. Its arms are covered with fine scales, and there are sharp claws between its fingers.
【Cave Clan】：
Hunting Level: 19
Target introduction: A racial force that lives in the underground space. It is good at controlling underground creatures to fight. It has level 2 intelligence. It is controlled by some kind of force and loses its consciousness of autonomy.
……
The Crypt clan creature looked up at them, and after his eyes met the player's, his pupils suddenly shrank into vertical pupils.
Suddenly, all the iron-shelled insect statues raised their bodies, their tentacles danced, and fired towards the player.
"Let's do it!"
The members of the toddler group also switched to monster forms at this time and pounced on the cave tribe creatures without hesitation.
As players, the word "coward" is not in their dictionary.
