Chapter 45: accidental discovery

As for the eight magic silver bracelets he had just asked Benjeno to build, three of them would be given to the three players with the highest contributions as an additional reward for building the secret tower.

The other two rewards are given to the players who have contributed the most to the construction of the Martial Arts Field. Now there is only one opportunity to announce the improvement of the reward content. He has not yet figured out the last three. Du Wei is going to find a hair to distribute to other players who have made outstanding contributions. player.

The anchor team that had experienced the devastation of the Shadow Forest found Du Wei to receive a two-hour enhancement effect as soon as they went online. The strengthened people regained their confidence and once again attacked the Shadow Forest.

Nicole, who is allergic to cats, wants to take Shui Shui and Hell Cook to find Du Wei with her to get the strengthening time, but every time Hell Cook recalls the horrible illusion, she hesitates, and she doesn't want to do it again for a while. Stepping into the Forest of Shadows, it is a waste of time to get the strengthening now, it is better to wait until the future to overcome the evil obstacles.

From Shui Shui's point of view, Nicole is a daredevil, if she dares to enter the Forest of Shadows with her, she will not be cheated to death by then, so she politely rejects her proposal.

Nicole pouted and went to find Du Wei to receive the two-hour strengthening time. She tied the vines that could be used to drag things around her waist, and then carried her backpack on her back to explore the Forest of Shadows alone. It was repeatedly explored by players before. There are basically no monsters to hunt in the area.

She chose a different direction this time, and entered the Forest of Shadows from the east side where there were few players, but she found a very strange scene.

After she went a little deeper into the Forest of Shadows, many corpses of monsters lying horizontally and vertically began to appear on the road. The trace left when the side area came back.

Nicole followed the traces forward, plunged headlong into the depths of the Forest of Shadows with the help of the enhanced body functions, and the surrounding scene slowly changed.

The forest landform slowly turned into low shrubs, and finally came out of the forest to a hilly area.

The monsters along the way were vulnerable mobs for Du Wei and the guards. Since most of the guards couldn't fly, they could only push them across the land. The kobold camp only hides a little near the village, and does not continue to push horizontally, so as to prevent players from discovering abnormalities as soon as they leave the village from this route, and then having unnecessary associations.

Neeko was pleasantly surprised by this discovery, and she felt that she must have triggered some special event.

In many current games, wild monsters are also divided into camps. She thought that this must be the trace left by a large group of monsters migrating or fighting wild monsters from different camps.

When she came to the hilly area, Nicole looked at the strengthening time, and there was less than half an hour left, which was not enough for her return trip.

In this case, it is better to go deeper, explore more unknown areas, get first-hand information and go to the tavern to trade.

With a goal in mind, Nicole accelerated her progress, and soon followed Du Wei's **** road to the vicinity of the magic silver mine.

There are only two exploration caves for the mine veins. There are many collection equipment abandoned at the entrance of the cave, and the inside is dark and dull. Nicole turned around and did not see any traces of monsters.

She thought that the monster probably entered the mine, and the strengthening time limit had expired, so she thought about it for a while and decided to go in to find out.

It is not enough to just find the information about the mine. If the type of monster or the type of mineral veins hidden inside can be detected, the value of the information will definitely be higher.

Nicole, who is allergic to cats, stood at the entrance of the cave and shouted, "Grandchildren! Your aunt is here! Come out and fight!"

There was an echo in the cave, but there was no movement. Nicole ran to another cave and shouted, but there was still no response.

Are there no monsters here? Nicole is overjoyed, her vertical pupils can see in the dark, and even without a light source, she can explore a distance deeper than ordinary players.

She put down her small backpack, picked up a mining pick from the door and entered the cave, relying on the faint sunlight shining in from outside, she couldn't see the situation inside the cave after walking a few meters, Nicole's pupils shrank and adjusted to night vision mode .

After walking a few tens of meters further, she saw an ore with a strange color on the wall of the cave.

Nicole stepped forward to swing the mining pick and smashed it at the ore in a daze. There was a sound of steel clashing, and the mining pick was bounced off her hand. Nicole's hands were numb due to the shock.

She didn't know how to mine, but she didn't know how to loosen the soil on both sides of the ore. Nicole, who had only been mining in the game, thought that mining was just smashing the ore with a pickaxe.

She turned back to pick up the pickaxe, picked it up, and saw that the end that had smashed the ore was twisted, why is this tool not as hard as the ore, Nicole cursed in her heart, and for a while did not know how to get the ore out.

After recovering her hands, she tried to chisel at the ore with the pickaxe again. This time she reduced the force a little, and the pickaxe was not directly bounced off, but the end that was in contact with the ore was still blunt.

Nicole had no choice but to drop the pickaxe, and probed inward for a certain distance. On the way, she picked up a small piece of broken magic silver that fell on the ground.

"Hey, at least there is a consolation prize." Nicole looked at the broken magic silver and said to herself When she walked to a depth of more than 100 meters, she couldn't see even with vertical pupils. I had no choice but to go back and just go out to see what color and material the ore is.

The scene seen with the vertical pupil in the cave is different from usual. It is difficult to distinguish the color of the ore, and only the faint light of it can be seen.

After walking out of the mine, Nicole took a deep breath. The air outside was still fresh. The mine was damp and cold, mixed with a rust-like smell, which made her very uncomfortable.

She picked up the broken magic silver and observed it carefully. It was a crystal with a silvery-white luster. When it was illuminated by the sun, it would also reflect blue-purple spots. It was a bit like the light emitted by the inside of a shell when it was illuminated by a light source, but it was not so colorful. Only two colors of blue and purple are left alternating.

Neeko put this strange stone in the leather armor's close-fitting pocket. After many tests, players found that only by saving the item in this way can they ensure 100% rebirth with themselves after death.

Although the capacity is small, it can ensure that important items will not be lost, which is equivalent to a portable safety box in some **** games.

Along the way, Nicole collected a lot of things. The backpack was filled with all kinds of iron tools collected from the ruins of the battlefield. When I came here, I didn't feel the strengthening effect. Now I will be stupid when I want to go back.

The backpack couldn't be carried at all, she untied the vines that she was going to use to pull things and threw them away, and cleaned out some things that didn't look valuable, and finally walked back to the village with two shovels as crutches. Go slow.

Before entering the Forest of Shadows, Nicole was exhausted and out of breath. There were still too many things and she had to lose weight.

She reluctantly threw away some equipment, and at the same time abandoned the two shovels, and replaced them with the two goblin daggers that were in the backpack before, and continued to move forward.
