The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 67 Abandoned Crystal Mine
"A brilliant victory: In this battle, you killed a total of 260 cavemen, 130 hell cavemen, 45 cave giants, and your own losses: 0
In this battle, you will get a total of: gold coins*1000, rare resource crystals*10, treasure: Aber crystal*1, and obtain the status effect of winning consecutive battles.

Your 3 rangers, 4 militia shooters, 1 spearman, 2 militiamen, and 1 elf will be promoted.

In addition, since you defeated the caveman army that occupied this place, you restored production in this mine, and you can send farmers to do production. "

In fact, this group of cavemen was very unlucky. They would not have been defeated so easily. Normally, the enemy would break into this abandoned mine directly and be surrounded by this group of cavemen.

However, they arranged some guards outside the cave, and these guards were spotted by Xu Lalan, who arranged for Su Ya to lead the team to kill them.

Su Ya only has a total of 8 people of level 1, including 4 militiamen and 10 people of level 3. Such a pitiful team is naturally considered weak.

So the cavemen in the cave chased them out. After being killed by Xu Lai, their morale dropped to zero and they all fled.

Unfortunately, they had no place to escape. In the end, when Xu Lai and the others killed the cavemen, they had run out of arrows. But facing a group of cavemen with their butts pointed at them, even the elf could lift a small fork and stab their butts.

Su Ya was indeed particularly fond of this elf. She transferred all the nearby farmers away and allowed this elf to occupy the best position for killing.

Xu Lai and the others' hands were sore. He was already exhausted from pulling the bow, but he couldn't let those cave giants recover their morale.

Otherwise, with the size of this thing and the fact that there were only a few torches lit by farmers logging in the dark cave, Xu Lai really didn't dare to say that he could beat this thing.

After the massacre, there was another glorious victory, but what surprised Xu Lai the most was not the upgraded troops as he wished, but the abandoned mine in front of him.

With such a large number of caveman troops, Xu Lai had already expected the upgrade.

After annihilating the Harpy, Xu Lai and several rangers received a lot of experience. After killing the caveman, he not only rose to level 9 with 41%, but even his one-handed weapon was reduced to level 3.

The most important factor in upgrading one-handed weapons is not the difficulty, but the destructive power caused. Whether it is breaking shields or cutting people, the higher the damage caused, the more experience you will gain.

What Xu Lai didn't expect was that the cave he thought was just an ordinary cave was actually an abandoned mine.

[Crystal Mine]: You have occupied a crystal mine, which allows you to send farmers to collect crystals.

The collection speed is: 10 farmers/day/crystal.

Note: This crystal mine is a rich type and can produce up to 10 units per day.

(Dry type: up to 1 unit per day, lasting for a period of time and then exhausted;

Barren type: Maximum 1 unit per day, 10% chance of drying up every natural month.

Rich type: Up to 3 units per day, with a 30% probability of natural mother ore. Long-term storage can evolve into a rich type.

Rich type: up to 10 units per day, natural mother ore must exist)

This mine can be bound to the Castle Heart (campfire/village). After binding the Castle Heart, a crystal mining factory can be built here (accelerating crystal collection) and troops can be stationed.

After looking at the properties of the crystal mine, Xu Lai was helpless. Ryan had told him before that gems and crystals were rare resources, and gems were rare resources with high demand among humans.

But he didn't expect that this broken crystal would be so difficult to dig out.

Xu Lai also had a Castle Heart (campfire) in his hand. This thing should be quite valuable, but Xu Lai gave it up for the sake of this crystal mine.After burying the heart of the castle, when I looked at the crystal mine, I saw that it had changed again.

[Crystal Collection Cave]: This mine allows you to send farmers to collect crystals. The speed is: 6 farmers/day/crystal. The maximum output per day is 10 units.

Incidental buildings: 1. [Military Camp]: Allows you to station troops, with a scale of no more than 100 people (accommodation, drinking water and simple defense facilities are provided).

2. [Prisoner Mine]: Allows you to use prisoners for mining work. The scale is the number of garrison troops * 3 + resident farmers * 2.

Note 1: The work efficiency of captives is extremely low, one-fifth that of normal farmers, that is, the work efficiency of 5 captured farmers is equal to that of 1 own farmer.

Note 2: Prisoners of different levels and attributes have different work efficiency. Generally speaking, the work efficiency of level 2 is twice that of level 1, four times that of level 0, and so on.

Special circumstances such as non-humanoid creatures (bison, coyote, griffin, etc.) have no work efficiency; amphibian creatures (murlocs, sirens, etc.) have work efficiency halved, etc.

Note 3: Both cavemen and dwarves have extremely high burrowing and mining talents, and their work efficiency is 3-5 times that of the same level.

The new crystal mine attribute made Xu Lai a little speechless. It was equivalent to one of his Castle Hearts only offsetting the positions of 4 farmers.

However, there are two additional buildings. These two buildings were completely automatically generated and did not cost Xu Lai a penny.

The price is that the heart of the castle has completely lost its function. It has been completely fused with the mother ore in the crystal mine and can no longer be dug out for upgrading.

In addition to not being able to upgrade, the crystal collection cave also does not allow Xu Lai to re-build. Of course, this re-construction cannot pass through the heart of the castle. It will be no problem if he hires some farmers to repair the house.

The so-called captive mine is just a large shed fixed with a simple wooden frame. The people live in the pit, so it is called a mine.

The military camp was better than Xu Lai expected. At least thicker wood was used for the fence, and two wooden watchtowers over 3 meters high were built.

The accommodation conditions here are much better. Although it is still a wing in Datongpu, there is a house after all.

There is also a small school yard, a well and a warehouse for storing food.

As long as Xu Lai stores enough food in the warehouse, the soldiers stationed here do not need to worry about him at all and will automatically execute orders such as vigilance, patrolling, and guarding prisoners.

Unfortunately, Xu Lai didn't have any prisoners. If he had known that this situation would happen, he would have kept some of the cavemen. The efficiency of this thing is 3-5 times that of the same level.

Peasants are level 0, so even level 1 cavemen are 6-10 times more efficient than farmers, but because they are captives, they are only one-fifth.

Therefore, even a level 1 caveman has a working efficiency equivalent to that of one farmer at worst and two farmers at most.

And not only the prisoners, Xu Lai now couldn't even gather the farmers. Fortunately, the crystal mine didn't surprise him. The large crystal he collected from the cave people brought him enough surprises.

[Amber Crystal]: A natural treasure, crystal mother ore, stored in a crystal mine, which can increase the resources of the crystal mine to a rich level.

Store it in your luggage and you can automatically obtain 1 unit of rare crystal every day. (Putting it into the space backpack will not work)
It can also be used as a material to make a staff. The basic level of a staff made of Aber crystal is at least an intermediate treasure.
