Chapter 238 - Reaching The Lake Of Death (1/2)
Under Tully's command, five airships left the Gnome Mineral Company. Three offensive airships provided protection around them, and two transport airships each carried 5,000 people as they flew towards the ruins of the war.
On the way, Tully asked, ”Mr. Tyrant, is our territory in the ruins of the war?”
”Yes.” Lorne nodded, ”Our territory is near the Lake of Death. This is also the main reason why I asked you to refine the Purification Crystal.”
”I see. It seems that you are very familiar with the ruins of the war. Otherwise, you would not know so many mineral veins.”
”Unfortunately, we can't bring any equipment out. The construction equipment, the blueprints, and other items are all assets of the company. The only thing that really belongs to us is ourselves.”
Tully looked at Lorne apologetically, but he did not care.
”To me, all of you are the greatest wealth. As for the equipment, I believe we will definitely have it with our combined efforts.”
In his previous purchase plan, he had bought conventional equipment, which included more mining equipment.
After the gnomes were settled, the miners could begin mining the surrounding mineral veins. With this money, Lorne could purchase more sophisticated equipment and the materials needed to build the cannon.
Very good, everything went according to plan.
…
Time passed quickly. After a day of flying, the airship team finally arrived at the ruins of the war.
When the players saw the scene in the sky, it immediately caused a commotion.
”Gosh! The gnome's air force is here!”
”This is larger than the last time. Are they here to sweep through the ruins of the war?”
”Damn, the gnomes are rich!”
”Did they discover a huge treasure and are going to attack with all their might?”
”Brothers, don't hesitate. Hurry up and catch up. We will definitely earn money!!!”
”Wait for me, I'll go too!”
”Charge! Let's give it a try!”
The players in the ruins of the war went crazy. A large group of players ran towards the airship.
…
At the headquarters of the World Destruction Guild.
Speck sat on the sofa with a dark expression. A day ago, he had been killed ten times by that player called Ghost Deity. His level had fallen to below Level 10, and he was currently a rookie in the Beginner Village.
Such a depressing experience made him not log into the game for the entire day.
