Archmage Of The Undead

Through the previous chat, Huo Ling also knew how much money Li Chengji and his disciples had invested this time, which totaled nearly half a million magic stones.

This is because they have channels. They don't need to spend money to open channels to get this small mineral deposit. Otherwise, this number will have to rise.

Part of the more than 500,000 yuan is used to purchase magic energy equipment for mining. Mining in the spiritual world naturally cannot use manpower or simple machinery like in Blue Star.

These magic minerals are much stronger than ordinary minerals, so mining requires special magic equipment.

These devices are huge enchanted equipment, and these minerals can be mined only by using the magic stone function.

This set of excavation and crushing equipment requires more than 300,000 magic stones, which accounts for the bulk of this investment.

In addition to these magic equipment, there is also the defensive magic circle. It is definitely unrealistic to rely solely on manpower for protection. The magic circle is definitely needed.

They were going to spend 100,000 magic stones to buy an enhanced version of the black iron level defensive array.

The remaining funds are to build the mining area, purchase transportation vehicles, hire staff and guards, and build a simple road out.

After all, these excavated Baiming ores are coarse ores, and there is no suitable finishing equipment here, and Master and Disciple Li Chengji are not prepared to carry out deeper finishing of these minerals.

Directly pull Tuoyuan to sell to the official. Although the profit will be smaller, the investment will also be reduced accordingly.

There are less than 100,000 magic stones left. To be honest, it is a bit tight to do these things, but there is nothing they can do. This is all their funds.

Their own money totaled about 200,000 magic stones, and they borrowed more than 200,000 from the school to collect all the funds for this investment.

Although there was talk before about letting Huo Ling invest in the company and give them more shares and dividends, if Huo Ling really invests, they actually won't ask for too much.

Because the output of this mine is so much, Huo Ling has already taken the dividends from Anbao and invested in it. If it were divided more, the shares falling on their master and apprentice would be too small.

…

After lingering in Tuoyuan for a few days, Huo Ling and the others officially set off.

There was a whole convoy of more than 20 trucks that set off, some of which were filled with the supplies needed this time.

There are also several buses carrying staff, who are mainly responsible for maintaining and using mining equipment, as well as building factories in the mining area.

In addition to these people, there is also a small escort team. This escort team has five silver-level warriors and fifty black-iron warriors.

They are now under Huo Ling's command, and they can be regarded as his subordinates who raised public funds for him. However, the main job of these guards is to protect subsequent transportation tasks.

Although nominally following Huo Ling's command, the team leaders and managers inside were all Li Chengji's people, and most of them had followed him in the past.

Several silver-level warriors were followers of Li Chengji, and some black-iron-level warriors were also members of their former team.

In the future security, Huo Ling will be responsible for the defense of the entire factory area, and these people will be responsible for the defense of the convoy transporting ore. There is no work conflict between the two.

The road to the mining area is not smooth. Although the Tuohara area is strictly speaking, it is a large hilly landform.

Although there are no high mountains around, there are still many small hills, which also makes their progress slower.

But this was not a problem. They also conducted some reconnaissance on the way and selected the roads that needed to be built later.

Because there are no good roads, not even the most basic dirt roads, the team spent a lot of time on the road. It took more than five days to reach the road of more than 200 kilometers.

…

After arriving at the destination, what appeared in front of Huo Ling was a stone mountain less than 400 meters long, where the mineral vein was located.

This place has been officially surveyed, and the entrance to the vein has even been marked with red paint on the mountain.

Although this mountain is only less than two hundred meters high, it still covers a large area, with an estimated radius of four to five kilometers.

"This is our mining area!" After everyone got off the car, Li Chengji opened his big hands, as if he wanted to embrace this small mountain into his arms.

He turned to Huo Ling and said, "Xiao Huo, you will have to work hard next."

"I understand, this is what I should do." Huo Ling nodded.

Although the mountain has undergone a simple official survey, the dangers in and around the mountain have not been eliminated.

Huo Ling's first job when he came here was to plow holes and clean up all possible potential dangers in and around the mountain.

Others began to unload equipment from the vehicle and set up a simple camp at the foot of the mountain. Huo Ling stood in front and started calling.

Dark warriors and skeleton warriors were summoned by him one by one, and they were lined up densely on the wasteland in front of them.

When the people who set up camp behind saw this scene, some of them couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

These undead warriors are all wearing black armor, and each of them exudes a terrifying aura of death.

Even the silver-level guards restrained their thoughts at this moment. With so many silver-level dark warriors, they could easily be crushed to death.

Li Chengji saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction. The important thing for him to choose Huo Ling was that although this guy had only been practicing for a few years, the power in his hands was not weak at all and was comparable to a medium-sized battle group.

Huo Ling now has five undead spellcasters, more than 130 dark warriors, and more than 300 black iron-level skeleton warriors under his command.

He divided these into five parts, one of which was kept here in the camp as a guard force for the camp.

The remaining four teams, each with a spellcaster, more than twenty dark warriors, and more than sixty skeleton warriors, began to climb the mountain from four directions.

For a time, the mountain was like a chicken and a dog jumping around, and these undead warriors launched a dragnet-style investigation on the mountain.

In addition to ordinary creatures, other spiritual creatures or magical beasts, even those at the apprentice level, were directly killed by them, leaving no chance of survival.

Although these low-strength creatures certainly pose no threat to Huo Ling, they are still a great threat to other ordinary staff in the camp. The strength of these staff is basically at the apprentice level. .

Basically, they have no fighting ability. When encountering these apprentice-level creatures or monsters, they will lose their lives if they are not careful.
