Lord of the People: Start with a golden crafting bar

In a dark and damp cave.

The swamp mud monster in front of Qin Li was wielding two black tentacles and long whips.

He slapped Qin Li fiercely.

Qin Li frowned slightly.

Once again mobilized the gray black mist imprint on the back of the hand.

A foggy spear that was much smaller was condensed from his hand. The next moment, his eyes locked on the swamp slime in front of him, and he threw the spear fiercely.

boom!
With a powerful short spear, it pierced through the swamp mud monster's body.

A gap about half a meter in diameter was blasted out.

After the swamp mud monster struggled a few times, the tentacles that had protruded suddenly fell to the ground.

"Sub-quest progress +1."

After prompting.

Qin Li flew over the puddle of mud, and continued to run towards the mine ahead.

at the same time.

Just now.

The orc chief who fled from here controlled the lizard walking in the rocks and headed straight for the center of the mine.

The place he was just now was just the outer area of ​​the mine.

That mechanical treacherous wolf has undergone such a big change, a mutated species.

this type.

Their mine owners are the favorite, and they are also very strong. If they are captured alive, they will conduct some research.

If there is something to be gained, it can be said that as an ordinary orc chief, he must also gain benefits.

The reason why he is a vassal of the mine owner is to obtain the materials that guarantee the survival of their clansmen.

Whether it's meat, or all kinds of cloth, as well as some forging and weaving skills.

These things can't be taken in vain.

He signed a ten-year contract with the mine owner, within this period of time.

He is going to serve the mine owner.

This time it can be said to be quite dangerous.

Before leaving.

The orc chief seemed to have sensed that the human wizard Byers who was with him was probably dead.

In this underground mine.

Old Eugene, the owner of the mine, would come here basically every few days. He had to look at the number of spirit stone mines in person, and try to make no mistakes.

The main reason is that the pressure on old Eugene is also very great, and there are even higher nobles on top, and their sickles will also be placed on the heads of new nobles like old Eugene.

It will also allow old Eugene to take out enough ore to trade. If he fails to take out enough shares at the end of the year, he will definitely be punished by the nobles above.

It might even cut their resource allocations!
Therefore, old Eugene traveled to and from the underground mine very diligently.

now.

Old Eugene was sitting on a huge stone chair in the core stone house in the underground mine.

Old Eugene's body was extremely huge, nearly three meters wide, like a huge meat ball, almost becoming a circle, with fair skin, wearing a red noble robe, and wearing a Gold-rimmed glasses and a moustache.

Under its natural facial expression is a smiling face, but this smiling face looks very weird, like a clown in a circus, looking at others with a sad expression.

"Not bad!"

"If this progress continues, we will definitely be able to pay enough shares. Leylin, inform the guards and let them supervise the miners on the ground. In the near future, there should be no excessive wear and tear. I will introduce them next month. Come a group of orc miners and human miners, and try to increase the amount of mining!"

"That way we can make more money."

Old Eugene said with a smile.

Beside him.

There is a thin old butler in black robe. This old butler has white hair, but his figure is straight. The body under the black robe is slightly swollen. It looks like this butler is very strong.

"Yes, Master Eugene!"

The black-robed steward at the side said hastily and respectfully.

When I was about to go out.

The voice of the orc chieftain came from the outside world.

"Master Eugene, it's not good, there is a problem in the area we are in charge of."

The voice just finished speaking.

The green-skinned, jackal-headed, short and fat orc chief rushed in in a panic.

Moreover, a wound of tens of centimeters appeared on the face of the orc chief at some point.

There are still strands of blood oozing out, and the clothes on his body are also a little messy. It looks like he just rushed over after a fight with other people.

"Ok?"

Hearing what the orc chief said, the smile on Eugene's face was inexplicably more angry.

His share is related to his own property.

Absolutely nothing can go wrong.

"Master Eugene, there is a mutated mechanical wolf in our place. Byers has died in his hands. The free-range monsters in the mine, even though they feed some old, weak, sick and disabled miners every day, they are still alive. They are all very leisurely, but their fighting power is not weak."

"But in the hands of that mechanical wolf, it is simply unmatched!"

"I suspect that the mechanical wolf may be occupied by a wandering evil god. It's too powerful!"

"However, if this kind of mechanical wolf is a mutated species, it would be great if Master Eugene could do some research and get some results!"

The orc chief knelt down in front of Eugene, and hurriedly spoke.

The voice is full of fear and flattery.

"Mutated mechanical wolf, not bad!"

"Caught him alive."

"Let the big knight go for a trip. It's best to catch it alive. I want to take a look for myself to see if it's worth researching!"

"As for you, stay with me first. If you tell any lies, then you can die. Of course, your clansmen are also included!"

Old Eugene glanced at the orc chief who was kneeling below, and said in a flat tone.

In Eugene's view, as long as they are not nobles, they are just livestock in his view.

That's how it is in this empire.

The identities of these low-level nobles must be no different from livestock in the eyes of those great nobles.

"Yes, Master Eugene!"

When the orc chief below heard what Eugene said, the pupils in his eyes shrank, and he lowered his head in fear, not daring to say anything.

And the front.

Sitting on a huge stone chair, the old Eugene with a huge body continued to pick up a ledger and continued to flip through it quickly.

Beside him, there are several large iron boxes, all of which are randomly selected standard units produced.

Once the standard unit is drawn out and fails to pass, Old Eugene also has his own way of punishment.

Any guards who are vassals to him, he will have a handle to hold them down.

if not.

Eugene would not consider the guards who didn't find anything to do with them.

Only by checks and balances, and the suppression of their own powerful strength, can these guards be controlled, otherwise, it will be easy to breed tigers and feed back on themselves.

……

now.

Qin Li was in the mine, like a wolf out of control, rampaging, shuttled through the passages all the way.

But this place, although there is always a wind blowing in front of it, it seems like a maze.

After passing through a corridor, at the end, there will even be four corridors appearing in front of his eyes.

If there is no map in this abandoned mine, it is absolutely impossible to escape like this.

"In this place, there must be a way to obtain map information!"

Qin Li thought to himself.

After turning the corridor.

I encountered another mine monster, this is a big goblin, nearly two meters tall, with green skin all over, wearing animal skin pants underneath.

He holds a white bone stick in his right hand, and two canine teeth grow out of his mouth.

The breath on the body fluctuates.

It's almost the same as entering the bronze level for the first time.

It is much weaker than Qin Li, a mechanical wolf, under normal conditions.

Qin Li charged directly with brute force, and when he got close, he raised the dark wolf claw on his right hand and cut off the neck of the big brother Brin.

puff!
Thick green blood spurted out.

"Ding!"

"Sub-quest progress +1!"

"It's almost done."

Qin Li was overjoyed.

It's just that the main task is to escape from this abandoned mine, which is the most important, otherwise, there will be no rewards.

Another few minutes passed.

Qin Li, who was speeding through the mine, encountered cave monsters a few more times.

Basically, the free-range monsters in this cave are all new to the bronze level, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong.

The strongest one among them is only a two-star bronze, a three-tailed red tiger.

It can even drive part of the power of fire.

Qin Li also suffered some troubles.

"It's only the last one."

Inside the corridor.

Qin Li, who ran through more than a dozen passages, looked in front of him with a slight frown.

On the side mission panel.

Only the last monster is missing. Once it is killed, the rewards can be increased.

When Qin Li walked through a passage again, this moment.

within the channel.

On the other hand, there was a knight in heavy armor walking towards Qin Li slowly.

However, although the other party walked very fast with the naked eye, one step is equivalent to a distance of several meters.

The movement speed is not slow anymore.

this moment.

Qin Li's whole body was overwhelmed by a sense of crisis and tingling. Driven by instinct, the mechanical wolf subconsciously made a defensive posture.

"Strong!"

Qin Li was taken aback.

After feeling the mountain-like sense of crisis, it was immediately clear that this was a black armored knight.

It is not at the same level as those bronze-level monsters just now.

Silver level?
Or Gold?
"Intelligence information."

but.

At this time, Qin Li also realized that if such a strong man was killed.

Maybe it will be the same as before, and the intelligence information of this abandoned mine can be obtained.

If there is map data, I don't have to run around at high speed in the corridors one by one, trying my luck.

The human race and orc miners here also don't know everything in this mine.

Because after they entered this place, they would not see the sun all year round, ranging from last month to several years, or even more than ten years.

After digging a mine, they didn't know the way out.
