Chapter 85: Blood Fangs
The Strange Crater, in an underground mine cave.
Tony, who had completely shrank his body in the shadow of a rock, was inserting the dagger into the rock in annoyance.
Tony miscalculated. He wanted to join forces with Arthur to join forces with Yinyunxiao Trading Company, but he didn't want to encounter so many crazy orcs. Each orc hunting team he encountered pounced on him like a wolf from a fat sheep. Before they could pick up the goods, three people had already been lost.
The subtle footsteps suddenly rang out, and Tony immediately stopped the movements in his hand.
A thin figure gradually approached the rock, and he was completely unaware of Tony hiding behind the rock. When half of the figure crossed the rock, Tony jumped out quietly. Before the other party could react, the dagger had already pressed under his throat.
The other party was so scared that he was instantly fixed on the spot.
Tony did not take the next move, but turned his head and shouted, "Captain, these miners are the people we are looking for, aren't they?"
Tony pressed the tip of his knife against a human miner, and behind him were three dirty and thin men dressed like him.
These people were also warriors before, but their qualifications were too poor, and they had already reached the end of the road to warriors, so they simply became miners who specialize in mining for a living. Compared with the expedition team, they are more familiar with the underground mine pits and have more opportunities to dig space ore. In addition to space ore, Qiyuan Crater actually produces a lot of rare ore, which will attract large commercial banks and well-known weapons shops to purchase them.
"Tony, put down the knife." A tall and thin man walked over from behind Tony.
The miner grinned, "Captain Hannick, I didn't expect you to come this time."
Hannick also smiled, "'Mole' didn't expect you to be there? There is no miner in the pit who has been around for longer than you, right?"
"This time is the last time Captain Hannick has seen me. The money is almost done, so it's time to find a place to retire."
"Then I want to congratulate you. Not many people in your career can retire alive. How many things have you prepared this time?"
"We have been lucky in the past six months, so we have saved two small bags."
"Where is the stuff? Let me take a look?"
The mole looked at Hannick with caution, "Captain is kidding, right? How dare I carry such expensive things with me?"
These miners can make a living by mining here. If they don’t bring valuable ore with them, they won’t attract people who rob money.
Hannick smiled, "I ignored it."
After Hannick said that, he took out several buckets of water and piles of food from the space ring, and finally a small box, which opened the lid of the box in front of the mole. There were neatly-coded crystal cards, a total of one hundred pieces.
This is the value of space ore. Two small bags of unrefined raw stones are worth 100,000 gold coins. If taken out to be refined into space stones, the price will be ten times higher.
The mole first collects water and food into its own space equipment, and finally counts the crystal cards one by one. A few cubic meters of small space equipment is a standard for miners here with some skills, otherwise they will not be able to survive in the underground mine for a long time. And there is no need to worry about other people coveting it, because space ore can no longer be put into space equipment.
"Captain, please come with me." After collecting everything, Mole took Hannick, Tony and others to the depths of the mine.
The underground mine pit was winding around, and there were countless forked mine caves in the middle. It was like an underground maze. The mole took Hannik and the others in the pit for nearly an hour before stopping.
Several other miners stepped forward to dig a rock next to them, and after a few picks, they dug out a small pile of rare ore buried in advance. After digging out the ore, several other miners quickly ran away, and also took away the mole's space ring.
"This pile of ordinary ore is used to cover the food and water. The two small bags of ore are buried 50 meters in front of the rock we met before. You can dig it up by going back the same way."
The miners collected the money first and then delivered the goods because they were worried that the buyer would grab the money after getting the ore, but Hannick was not afraid of the mole and the others lying because they dared not.
"See you goodbye if you're destined to do it." Hannick nodded at the Mole and took the person back.
"Captain." Hannick had already walked more than a dozen steps, and the mole suddenly spoke again behind him.
Hannick slowly turned around.
Mole hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Captain, I am ready to leave the crater and go home to retire. I have something to cash in before leaving. I wonder if the captain is interested?"
Hannik smiled, "Our business company has acquired all kinds of rare and foreign objects in the world. This is not the first time you have cooperated with the business company. Just take out anything if you have anything."
The mole hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a long object from his waist. The layers of wrapped animal skin opened, revealing a five-inch-long dagger with a leather sheath. The handle was quaint ivory white, and several bats were carved on the leather sheath. Gently pulling out the sheath, a blood light flashed in the pit, and a faint blood-colored luster flowed back and forth on the slightly curved white blade.
Hannick gently stroked the blade, and a coldness that penetrated his bone marrow suddenly emerged from the dagger, causing his body to tremble unconsciously.
"What a rare good knife, where did you get it?"
"I picked it up deep in a mine cave to the west. When I found it, I only had this knife and half of the corpse below my waist. It should have been a time when I was mining a large piece of space stone, which accidentally detonated the power of the space, completely shattered the upper half of my body." Mole analyzed.
Hannick looked up at the Mole, "You've been hit by Qiyuan, have you offered a price?"
"Two hundred thousand." Mole is also a warrior, so he naturally knew the value of this weapon, so he had already thought of the price.
Hannik smiled, "This weapon is indeed not expensive."
The Mole also smiled, and just as he thought Hannick was going to take money from the space ring, Hannick waved his hand and a lightning flashed through his neck like lightning.
The mole's body did not fall forward immediately. He saw a blood arrow like a spring water shooting out from under his neck and flowing into the dagger along the blood light.
The mole's sucked body fell to the ground. Looking at the dagger in Hannick's hand, a small piece of the white knife turned pale red.
"Let's leave here immediately." Hannick led the team to rush towards the entrance of the hole.
Hannick suddenly chose to silence his mouth not to save the 200,000 gold coins, but to have recognized the Blood-Tooth Blade. He didn't want the news about the Blood-Tooth Blade to leak out.
But Hannick underestimated these miners. He led the team away shortly after he left. The miners who had left before returned to the mole's corpse, and anger appeared in everyone's eyes.
