Cthulhu Gonfalon

After about two months of training and running-in, the joint exploration team was finally ready to officially depart.

And long before they, the pioneering team of adventurers has arrived. Unlike the exploration team, the mission of the development team is to build camps and repair roads. This camp will be very large and can accommodate three or four hundred people. Because then it will not only be used as a camp for the exploration team, but also a simple smelting field. Once the ore is discovered, preliminary smelting is carried out to determine its accurate quality, so as to estimate the value of the vein.

Moreover, if it is determined that the vein will be mined, the camp will be a transit point connecting the mine and the outside world in the future. It is a place similar to a processing plant and a small fortress.

There is a saying on the earth that "want to get rich first," is similar in this world. To do big things, you must first build roads. With convenient transportation, it is much more convenient to transport people or transport goods.

Don't say anything else, if there is no road, the carriage won't come, the tools needed for exploration, and the homes needed to build a small smelter, can you shoulder your shoulders?

How much manpower does that take! How much risk do you have to risk!

In particular, the terrain here is relatively north, and it is still better. When the winter season is over, snow and waist are commonplace. If there is no road, the internal and external traffic will be cut off directly. If there is a bit of a scorpion at the time, it is really not called every day, and the land is not working.

Road construction is not only for the convenience of developing mines, but also for their own safety.

In almost two months, a simple road was built. This road is really simple, it is nothing more than to remove the grass on the road, the stone moved away, and then a little flat. This kind of road to see is still okay now, and it will take a long time to go wrong. Especially when it is snowing in winter, when the snow melts in the spring, it will surely become a muddy.

But in any case, it is enough to make it work now and let the carriage pass.

The future will be said in the future.

Not long after the road was repaired, the exploration team came.

Because of the delay of two months, the weather is already cold, but the cold also has the advantage of cold - when the weather is cold, all kinds of poisonous snakes will hibernate, it is safer for exploration. As for the beasts and monsters that ignore the cold everywhere, they are the same even when the weather is hot, no difference.

The adventurers are not afraid of the cold, and the prospectors are not afraid. In other words, the poisonous snake is more dangerous than the cold, which is not so terrible.

The Ministry of Mines thought so, so it was deliberately dragged into the winter to begin exploration.

What's more, even if you want to hurry, the road is not repaired, and the camp is not built, it is not convenient to explore.

Exploration workers are not risk takers. They don’t have strong physical strength enough to fight with black bears. They can’t carry heavy materials over the mountains. However, they need to carry even more than risk-takers. Some people have counted that on average, one exploration worker often brings out at least twenty kilograms of various stones. To carry such a heavy thing, wading through the mountains, of course, you need a stable camp. With a reliable rear, they are able to carry out this high-intensity work.

Hopps didn't think so much, he was only happy for the end of the journey.

"Call... It’s so cold!" He took a sigh of relief. He jumped out of the carriage and looked at the mountains that had been covered with snow. He couldn’t help but say, "But the scenery is really beautiful!"

Indeed, only a few days before the heavy snow, now the mountains are all wrapped in silver shirts, white in the clear sunshine, the sky is cloudless, the blue sky and the white peaks are set off, it is refreshing.

These days are not learning or hurrying, look up, see either the roof or the hood, in short, not seeing the sky, now I can finally relax, the so-called desire to suppress, the moment is more fun, even bigger Victory week.

If it wasn’t for the three-and-a-half-year training in this period of time, he repeatedly told me that he couldn’t yell in the snow-covered mountains. He really wanted to make a big noise and express his heart.

Just then, he heard the big cockroach coming from behind a carriage.

"Ah - Europe - Ah - Europe -"

Hops covered his face with his hand and didn't want to look back.

And Ruby had rushed over in an angry way, grabbing a pig man who was yelling and screaming and slamming him down to the frozen ground.

"You stupid pig! Forgot the emphasis in class, don't yell in the snow!"

The pig man was really thick and thick, and he didn’t hold it tight. He lay on the ground and said: "I am not a prospector."

"It’s not the prospector who has to behave in a discipline! If you are stunned by you, it will be an avalanche. People who are exploring in the mountains will be in danger!"

"But everyone has just arrived, and have not yet explored the mountains."

"There are other adventurers in the mountains!"

"What other adventurers are about us?"

Ruby was so angry that he was too stunned, and he was too lazy to talk to the shouts. He picked up his fist and punched his left fist. He beat the guy and cried, and the last pig face became blue and purple, and he stopped.

"I don't think like the teacher of the school, I don't know what to convince. I am a rough man." After the fight, he slammed his fist coldly and made a screaming voice. "Rough people only Will you solve the problem in a rough way, do you understand?"

The pig man glared at him.

"Very good, let me hear you yelling next time, I will use a stick!" Ruby turned a blind eye to the fierce eyes of the pig head and turned away.

In the two-month training session, he was recognized by the teachers and students in Laojiang Lake and was elected as the captain of the explorers. As the captain, he needs to lead the team to check the camp, but also to prepare a lot of things, no time to waste time here.

When he went far, Hopps sighed and walked to the pig head who was still lying on the ground. His hand gave a faint green light and landed on the pig head.

"Ferra, you guy knows Ruby's temper, why should you slap him?" he sighed. "It's interesting to play this game again and again?"

"I will... sooner or later... still his..."

"You just had a little contradiction at the beginning. Are you always aiming at him?"

"an eye for an eye!"

"Where is it so serious! What's more, you a chef, how can you avenge him?"

"There will always be... opportunities."

Under the healing effect of natural spells, the injury of the pig head Fira quickly improved, and in a short while there was only a trace of faintness. He thanked Hopes, climbed up and turned away.

This chef Fira is a girl, and when she is training, she doesn’t know what to do, and she doesn’t look at it. Then the two sides quarrel and start. Feira certainly didn't beat Ruby and slammed a fight. After that, this guy avenged his vengeance. He provoked Ruby every three times, and he always slammed a fight, but never knew repentance.

Hops is gentle and has a natural spell. Every time he beats, he will help him. One to two, his own treatment ability is quite advanced, and Feira is also a friend.

It’s just that Feira’s character is relatively detached and stubborn, and Hops’s persuasion is useless, and this time it’s the same.

Seeing that he and Ruby were busy, Hopps could not help but sigh.

(I really don’t know what the Ministry of Mines thinks. Why do you want Fira to participate in this exploration? People’s hearts are not the same, but taboo!)
