Chapter 93 Forbidden Knowledge

The effect of spiritual crystals has skyrocketed, and the value of spiritual crystal mines has also increased.

Gavin had already wanted to use the Spirit Crystal Mine, but due to the limited number of kobold miners, he was unable to tap the potential of the Spirit Crystal Mine for the time being, so he kept putting it off.

This incident directly helped him make up his mind.

Such an important strategic material is safest if it is in your own hands, even if the output will temporarily decrease.

Cutting off food is naturally the first step.

All that's left is to wait for the Spirit Crystal Mine to empty out its previous food reserves and cause internal chaos.

The third day after Gavin finished dealing with Clay.

The leader of the caravan, Bede Sage, hurriedly appeared outside the Black Well tribe. This time he did not come with the caravan, but only brought two guards.

As soon as they met, Bede asked directly: "Is Clay dead?"

"Yes." Gavin was not prepared to hide this matter at all.

This matter not only needs to be known to the caravans, but also to be widely publicized. Words of warning are not enough, naked blood is also needed.

"Where are the four heavily armored guards he brought? Have you killed them all?" Bede asked anxiously.

"That's not true. I know they are mercenaries and have no enmity with them. I just detained them." Gavin pretended not to know and asked, "What's wrong? Do they have a strong background?"

"It has a great origin." Hearing that they were still alive, Bede breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Have you heard of the Red Crow Mercenary Group? Have you heard of Leyana Rose of Flame Dance?"

"No." Gavin pretended to be ignorant and asked for knowledge and advice.

Although he knew about the Red Crow Mercenary Group, he really didn't know much information.

"The Red Crow Mercenary Group is the largest mercenary group around Yandi. Let's put it this way, among all the caravans that set off from the valley and pass through Yandi, there will definitely be mercenaries from the Red Crow Mercenary Group. They regard Yandi as their rearguard.

Garden." Bede explained patiently, "Their leader Leyana is a powerful warrior who is only one step away from being a legend. We are definitely not someone we can afford to offend."

"What do you mean, uncle, Clay's action this time is not a private action, but an act of cowardice with the Red Crow Mercenary Group? Did they promote this?" Gavin's heart couldn't help but sink. If this is the case, the nature of the whole thing will be different.

That has changed, his conflict with the Red Crow Mercenary Group will be brought forward.

Bede was stunned and couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Brother Gavin, you are thinking too much. The Red Crow Mercenary Group's behavior is not so bottomless. This time, Clay was purely blinded by greed and secretly

The operation only hired mercenaries from the Red Crow Mercenary Group. They probably wanted to use the name of the Red Crow Mercenary Group to save their lives after the incident. Unexpectedly, Brother Gavin had never heard of the Red Crow Mercenary Group.

The name of the Corps is also, after all, you have just arrived in the rocky area and have had too little contact with the outside world."

"That's it." Gavin breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a bit of embarrassment on his face, "Uncle Bede, what should we do next?"

"Now you know how to ask for my opinion? Why didn't you ask for my opinion when you were killing Clay?" There was a trace of dissatisfaction in Bede's words.

Obviously, he had no objections to Gavin's killing of Clay. After all, he was a partner in a group, so he still had some feelings for him.

"The nature is different." Gavin said seriously, "If I really hand Clay over to Uncle Bede, it will be even more difficult for you. When the time comes, will you kill him or not?"

If you kill him, your prestige in the caravan will be seriously affected.

If we don't kill, it will directly destroy the basic bottom line of our cooperation. When the time comes, everyone will want to interfere randomly for their own interests, and we will fall into endless internal fighting, and there will be no talk of win-win cooperation at all.

As for the Red Crow Mercenary Group, they are outsiders, so of course we must deal with them unanimously."

"You alone have said the good and the bad, so what else do you want me to say?" Bede couldn't help but sighed again, "Being decisive in killing is sometimes a good thing, sometimes not necessarily. You are like this

It offends people so much. It blocks one of his own roads and makes a group of people hold grudges. Clay is not alone. There is a big family behind him."

"So, you are businessmen, I'm just a miner." Gavin looked indifferent. If he were to do anything like Bede, he would be as forward-looking and prepared as possible. He wouldn't have to do anything.

Bede thought about it seriously and said: "This is also the reason. If you do everything, there will be nothing for us. Let me take away the four mercenaries from the Red Crow Mercenary Group. The rest will

, let me handle it."

"Then I'll trouble Uncle Bede." Gavin happily threw the four hot potatoes out. Although it was inevitable to deal with the Red Crow Mercenary Group in the future, it was not now. At least according to the current strength, he didn't want to deal with it.

Contact this behemoth head-on - because there is nothing to gain.

Gavin pondered for a moment and then said: "Uncle Bede, our business is now open. It's not an option for you to always be so scattered. I suggest that you'd better set up a chamber of commerce to decide how much money to invest."

In this way, we will carry out shareholding dividends. When the time comes, the business with Heijing will be handed over to specialized people. You will not have to go there one by one in person. When the time comes, you can completely leave your body and do other things.

Business."

"You think I don't have any ideas in this regard?" Bede couldn't help but sighed again, "Ten people have twelve hearts. One is afraid of making less, and the other is afraid that others will make more than him, and wants to take them away.

It’s really difficult to twist them into a rope.”

"It has to be done even if it's difficult, otherwise, you will always be a group of people who just run away from home." Gavin said with a hint of arrogance on his face, "I'm not bragging, at your current pace of development, it won't be long before you can't keep up with me.

The pace is up, don’t blame me for not waiting for you when the time comes.”

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

Bede showed a solemn expression. This is where Gavin's development speed lies.

Everything is difficult at the beginning.

The hardest part was that he was able to cross it so easily at the beginning.

Not to mention that with the current solid foundation, I believe that the future development speed will be faster and faster.

Judging from the current situation, no matter in terms of ideas or pace, there is a real possibility that one day they will not be able to catch up.

Bede believes that this day will not be too far away.

When the time comes, once Gavin cooperates with other large chambers of commerce, even if Gavin misses his old friendship, those large chambers of commerce will not be polite to them and will squeeze them out bit by bit for the sake of profit.

no.

He would never allow this to happen. This was the gold mine they had finally dug out, how could it be given to others so easily?

No matter what, we have to integrate those scattered business owners together and we can no longer let them play their part.

Not only Gavin is worried about the emergence of a second Clay, Bede is also worried.

Clay's behavior was not only prying at Gavin's wall, but also at the same time prying at the entire caravan.

"Brother Gavin has said a lot. I will consider this matter carefully. Just wait for my good news." Bede held Gavin's hand and solemnly promised.

"Okay." Gavin just mentioned it casually. He didn't pay much attention to this matter.

I had previously cooperated with Bede and the others because I had no channels, so I had no choice but to do it with nothing.

Now that he has real goods and has become a seller, supply and demand have changed, and merchants will gradually come to his door.

Bede left quickly as he came.

After talking to Gavin about the matter, he left in a hurry with four heavily armed guards from the Red Crow Mercenary Group.

Although he coveted the heavy equipment of the four heavy-armed guards, Gavin had no choice but to give up in order not to offend the Red Crow Mercenary Group.

As soon as Bede left, Gavin got into the alchemy laboratory that Heijing had just established.

He is working with the kobold alchemist in the Eagle Cliff Cave to find ways to improve the shock bomb.

To be more precise, Gavin thought of a way, and the kobold alchemist cooperated to improve it.

The five dirt lumps that knocked the Goblin Wolf Cavalry and Clay Caravan over before were the flutter bombs that are a specialty of the Kobolds.

In Gavin's opinion, the instability of this kind of bomb is too high.

Not only is the use unstable, but also the power is unstable.

It's about as likely as a half-ogre's fart as a fireball.

There are three types of flutter bombs produced by kobolds - weak, strong and dragon.

The production cost of a weak flutter bomb is about one hundred gold coins, and it weighs about half a kilogram.

The lethality is very unsatisfactory, just like a strong acid bottle. It only causes 1D5 points of strong acid damage (1-5 points, depending on the degree of splash) to all creatures within a three-meter range.

Gavin doesn't even produce this kind of flutter bomb.

The production cost of a strong flutter bomb is about three hundred gold coins, and it also weighs about half a kilogram.

The killing range and lethality have improved, with a splash radius of three meters, but the stability is too poor. It will cause 1D4*1D6 acid damage to creatures within the explosion radius.

This was the first time that Gavin had seen such a weird identification technique. It is estimated that only kobolds, that is, those equally unreliable goblins, could come up with such weird things.

What this means is that you roll 1d4 and 1d6 and multiply the results together to determine the damage it does when it explodes.

Therefore, a Tremor Bomb is just as likely to do 1 damage as it is to do 24 damage (but is most likely to do somewhere around 9).

The situation of the dragon flutter bomb is similar to that of the strong flutter bomb, except that the production cost reaches one thousand gold coins and the weight exceeds one kilogram.

The killing radius reached about five meters, and the damage became 1D6*1D8, which is between 1-48.

The kobold alchemist obviously had no sense of confidentiality and didn't mind Gavin watching him make flutter bombs, because he didn't think Gavin could learn this craft at all.

This is also true, Gavin really can't learn it, because not only physical materials are used, but magic is also required to neutralize and prepare it.

When it comes to magic, forget about using one sentence or two to explain it clearly.
