Elves: Dark Ages

Wasteland Calendar Year 350, March th

The peach moon of spring, the revival of all things

The spring rain fell hazy, carrying traces of corrosiveness. The acid rain is thin, dense, and gray.

At the mouth of the La Blanc mine, gray raindrops hit the khaki ore "tick-tick", colliding with a large amount of corrosive white smoke.

The smoke was mixed with a pungent and unpleasant smell like 84 disinfectant. This smell has long been numb to the slaves in the mining area.

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound, and Niu Laosi grasped the soft leather whip and whipped it on the elderly slave.

"Ah~!!"

The pain of whipping made the slave subconsciously cover his arms and let out a scream.

Then he collapsed in the mud and shrank in fear. His eyes were even more frightened and he didn't dare to look up.

Thick dark clouds squeezed the sky, as heavy as if they were about to fall, and the world was filled with a depressing atmosphere.

Seeing this, Niu Laosi sneered without saying a word, crossed his arms, and looked at these numb and dull slaves:

"A bunch of wasteful waste of food!"

After hearing his words, the slaves all showed bitterness and pain on their faces, but they did not dare to refute.

Niu Laosi seemed to be getting angrier as he thought about it, and he raised his whip as if to swing it at the old man again.

But this time, before the whip fell, it was firmly held by a thick and strong hand.

"Wait a moment!"

The slaves standing in front of him dispersed in fear, and the owner of this big hand slowly emerged from the team.

Oncoming was a strong man about two meters tall, with dark skin and a tall and strong build. He was wearing orange overalls with his arms exposed.

The muscles on the arms are like bricks, full of explosive power, and the body is as strong as a human-sized bear.

Looking at the slave who was half a head taller than him, Niu Laosi stopped moving.

He raised his head and glared at Chen Yang, as if he wanted to kill someone:

"Why, Chen Yang, do you also want to taste the feeling of being whipped?"

This unusual height makes him stand out among the miners. It is not surprising that Niu Laosi knows his name.

Chen Yang stared at him silently, a depressing atmosphere enveloped both parties.

The next moment, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, touched the back of his head and smiled innocently:

"How dare I go against Mr. Niu? Why don't you give me a chance and I'll deal with him for you!"

With these words, Chen Yang opened the inside of his vest, and a flash of blue caught Niu Laosi's eyes.

This blue color was like sea water, seeping into his sight bit by bit, making him unable to take his eyes away.

The swarthy man was attracted by the mysterious blue light, but he didn't notice the murderous intent hidden in Chen Yang's eyes.

"Blue fluorite, although it is not a valuable thing, is considered a rare treasure for some ladies in Tu'ang Town."

Niu Laosi's brows relaxed slightly, and his face became a little excited, obviously agreeing with Chen Yang's knowledge.

"Yes, Xiao Chen, you are better."

He nodded and praised:

After seeing that this beautiful blue stone had achieved the effect he wanted, Chen Yang released his grip on the whip.

He took out the ore from the inside of his vest, rubbed it on his clothes, and stuffed it into the swarthy man's pocket while looking at the envious eyes of the people around him.

"Since you like it, I'll give it to you and I won't interfere with it."

This kind of naked bribery is a private unspoken rule in the La Blanc mining area.

This mining area is about the law of the jungle, and whoever is stronger is right.

Niu Laosi put away his cowhide whip, nodded with satisfaction to Chen Yang, and then shouted loudly to the miners:

"What are you looking at? Get ready to enter the mine! If the quantity of ore does not meet the standard today, there will be no food for anyone!"

Chen Yang turned around and returned to the team, supporting the old man's arm:

"How about it, Lao Litou, can you still go to the mine today...?"

Old Li's withered face showed a wry smile that looked like he would survive the disaster, and he quickly thanked Chen Yang.

"It doesn't affect me! It doesn't affect me. Thank you, Boss Chen. If it weren't for you today, I would have lost my life."

Chen Yang looked at the old man expressionlessly and said:

"It's okay, I'm just dropping by, you're welcome."

Chen Yang said nothing more and slowly integrated into the team.

It's just that he didn't notice the inexplicable meaning flashing in Lao Litou's eyes behind him.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and Chen Yang, with his unusual physique, naturally became one of the bosses of the miners in this team.

"A small stone that is of no use to me can maintain my image as a big brother. It's worth it!"

He silently thought in his heart that the most important thing now was to find a way to escape.

Chen Yang is not from this world.

Yes, he has traveled through time, and his soul is that of an ordinary social animal from the 21st century on earth. Died in a car accident on the way to work.

To this day, he can still clearly remember the horrified expression on the driver's seat of that Cadillac. Only by dying once can one understand the value of life.

After traveling through time for three days, he gradually understood that this world was cruel and bloody.

His parents died when he was young, and he was adopted by an orphanage for sixteen years. Unexpectedly, the director was a man with an animal face and a heart of a beast, and sold him to a mine as a slave.

He was originally a drunkard who was addicted to alcohol. After drinking and falling unconscious, his body was taken over by the soul of Chen Yang who traveled through time.

It is worth mentioning that the parents of this body died accidentally during the elven riots. Yes, elves are also called Pokémon.

The elves in this world are not as beautiful as in the anime. There are green caterpillars that can easily kill adults, and giant flower-eating flowers that hide in the grass and like to devour humans.

There was even a fiery monkey that suddenly popped out of the woods. It was so angry that it would smash everything in front of it. Chen Yang had seen that cruel scene when he was a child.

The only way to change your destiny is to become a trainer with an elf and step into the super world!

Trainers are the mainstream in this world.

Only they can fight against the elves. Every trainer is a pioneer of mankind.

It's a pity that in this real and terrifying world, ordinary people don't even have the opportunity to touch the elves.

As if thinking of something, Chen Yang turned his head and looked at the rear of the team.

On a throne made of huge stones piled high, sat a middle-aged man in black with scars on his face.

The man wore white gloves on his hands, crossed his five fingers, crossed his legs leisurely, lowered his head and looked down at the many slaves in the mining area.

The most striking thing is that next to him is a large round ball covered by rocks.

Each hand has three fingers, and each foot has five fingers, four in front and one in back, all with sharp nails.

The head protruding from the center of the body resembles a turtle, with a pair of red eyes that reveal ferocity and cruelty. There are two sharp teeth in the lower jaw, exuding an intimidating aura.

"Longlong Rock~"

Although I already knew about the existence of elves, I still marveled when I saw them with my own eyes.

If only I had an elf, even a unicorn.

You must know that there are no useless elves, only useless trainers!

Chen Yang thought secretly in his heart, his fists were clenched until they turned white, and he stared at the man intently.

"Brother Dali! Brother Dali!"

A rough palm shook in front of him, interrupting his thoughts.

Chen Yang came back to his senses and asked in a deep voice:

"Skinny Monkey, what's going on!"

"Brother, the miners have already entered the mine, and that idiot Niu Laosi started urging us to go in."

The boy next to him looked at the team in front entering the mine, pointed at Niu Laosi and cursed.

Chen Yang took one last longing look at Longlongyan, and then turned around:

"Notify everyone, pack your equipment and prepare to go to the mine!"

…………

The La Blanc mining area occupies a larger area than I imagined. The entrance to the cave is as high as four or five stories, with large rocks on both sides.

Walking into the mine, I could faintly hear the sound of dripping water. The cave was quite bright, and the kerosene lamps on both sides emitted light, illuminating the dim interior of the cave.

Chen Yang speculated that this mine had probably been excavated for a relatively long time, and that many parts of the mountain had been hollowed out to achieve such a large scale.

There are stalactites and stalagmites on all sides, and water drips down the stalactites and onto the ground. The shapes of stalactites are all kinds of strange.

He arranged the miner's lamp on his head and began to walk towards the area under his jurisdiction.

The skinny monkey following him looked a little unnatural, looked around, gritted his teeth and said:

"Recently, there is purple mist everywhere in the mining area. No miner who is sucked in by the mist will survive. This mine is no longer mineable..."

Chen Yang frowned, but did not stop.

"What, are you scared?"

The expression on Thin Monkey's face was a little awkward, and he hurriedly explained:

"That's not what I meant. I'm just worried that our mineral resources will suffer heavy losses. Brother Dali..."

Chen Yang laughed loudly and patted the thin monkey on the shoulder.

"Hahaha, don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion!"

The thin monkey showed a pained expression, curled his lips but did not dare to say a word.

Each miner boss has his or her own mining area, and they are responsible for mining crystal ores and protecting the miners.

Most of the area has been cleared by the 'Tuon Energy Company'. In order to ensure the output of the gray crystal mine, the Tuon Company regularly sends people to clean up the elves around the mining area.

But occasionally there will still be elves running out from the depths of the mines, and the violent elves will attack the humans who occupy their habitat.
