20 New Ore Vein And Exploration! (1/2)
Moroes and the gamers were finding a place to secure the Spider. They bound the Spider with a few metal chains so that it could be used as a training tool. They heard a miner's shout and ran over to see what had happened.
A gamer whose head was showing Peasant was holding a pickaxe in his hand as he looked excitedly at the rock wall. Behind the rock wall were a few excavated holes that showed faint golden glimmers.
It looked like glinting gold or something similar to that.
”What's that? Gold ore?”
”I don't know. I mined using my pickaxe and found this.” The Peasant gamer was not sure how to answer the rest. He raised his pickaxe, which was broken from the middle. It had been broken when he was hitting on the gold-colored ore. The Peasant gamer said, ”This ore must be valuable! I only hit it twice and my pickaxe broke! Did I discover something valuable?”
”That's possible. It's very dense. It could be something valuable!”
”Call the Dungeon Lord to confirm. Could this be a new game item?”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
As the gamers were busy chatting, Sherlock arrived, and the gamers gave way as they looked in anticipation at him. The Peasant gamer raised his pickaxe excitedly in anticipation of a reward, but Sherlock was having a heartache as he looked at the broken pickaxe that had cost him ten Magic Stones!
Simba was able to make pickaxe heads, so he could replace it. Sherlock decided to investigate what the gamer had discovered.
Sherlock dismissed the surrounding gamers so that they resumed their training and mining. He shouted for Simba to come and identify the unknown ore as it was better to let a professional handle it. Simba put aside his work and asked the gamers to clean the surrounding areas that were made of Diamond Seam. Then, he hit and hammered the gold-colored ore. He even licked it.
After checking for a long time, Simba said with confidence, ”This is an Adamantine Ore! But it's not very pure, so it will require refinement after excavation. It's most suitable for making weapons, but it's a waste to use it for weapons. Its Magic conductivity is very strong and it is commonly used for making Alchemy Platforms, Magical Items or Teleport Portal foundations.”
”Can this be sold?” Sherlock asked as he was concerned about profit.
”It can be sold, but the actual price depends on purity and market demand. An ore the size of a Goblin can fetch hundreds to thousands of Magic Stones. I'm not sure about the exact amount.” Simba was an expert Blacksmith, but he was not knowledgeable in the Adamantine market.
Sherlock nodded. Could the ore be mined? The Peasant gamer's pickaxe had broken after two hits as the Adamantine Ore was harder than the Diamond Seam. Sherlock asked Simba who scratched his head.
Simba said, ”The pickaxe made from Diamond Seam cannot be used to mine Adamantine Ore.A material harder than Adamantine is needed. I'll write a letter back to the shop to check the cost.”
”Good. After checking the prices, get me ten pickaxes for mining Adamantine Ore. I can use the mined Adamantine Ore as collateral.” Sherlock was in need of money. He had thought that if Magic Stone Ores were discovered, it would help his financial situation. Instead, Adamantine Ore was discovered, which was not bad. Sherlock felt that Adamantine Ore would not be more valuable than Magic Stone Ore, but it was still better than nothing.
As for saving the Adamantine Ore for making Alchemy Platforms, Magical Items and Teleport Portal foundations, Sherlock was giving them a pass as he did not need them at the moment. He was unable to maintain a good supply of food, so he needed more Magic Stones. He was practical and also flexible.
It was a new generation. Even if it were the Underworld, it did not mean developing the Dungeon alone. Instead, there could be lots of interaction and business in a market economy! Merchants were forming groups to create neutral Dungeons. As a new generation Devil Lord, Sherlock could not afford to be behind the times.
Simba quickly went to write the letter which would be delivered quickly using Mana. After Simba completed his letter, he ignited the letter-sending Magic Powder and threw the letter into the Magic Fire that consumed it.
The letter was sent to Winterfell's Don't Have the Most Expensive Stuff Blacksmith Shop. He had to wait for a reply.
The gamers were curious about the newly discovered ore vein. Because they did not have suitable tools, they were unable to mine it. Some gamers tried to use their pickaxes to mine it but were stopped by Bru.
Sherlock awarded the Peasant gamer a suit of armor, a Short Sword, a silver coin and a thousand Reputation Points for discovering the Adamantine Ore.
