Martial arts masters in the wizarding world
Chapter 10 Destruction
"Lord Hals, if the Baron finds out about our secret mining of this underground silver mine..."
Colen, the garrison leader of Hals Territory, said with some worry.
"As long as our actions are secretive, how could the Baron know about it?"
Hals stared hard at the head of the garrison and said in a sinister tone: "Do you want to tell the truth, Colen?"
When Coren heard this, his face turned pale and he quickly denied it.
"How is it possible, Master Hals? Everything I have is given by you, and I will never betray you."
"That's good. Just carry out my order and don't think too much about anything else." Hals nodded with satisfaction.
After the outbreak of the 'Magic Disaster', the copper mine was shaken. Hals had not paid much attention to it before, until a monster ran out of a gap deep in the mine and ate many miners.
The monster that ran out was the demon spider killed by Byron. It had been wandering in the forest near the Siberian Territory since it came out of the dark underground.
Hals sent people to investigate, only to discover that the crack in the ground should have been caused by vibrations and went straight underground, and there was actually a mithril vein inside, which was open in the open!
A copper mine can already supply a wealthy baron, and what a mithril vein means is that Hals may become a viscount in the future!
Mithril is a precious metal material, also known as "true silver" and "silver steel".
The dwarves were the first to mine mithril, and they loved it more than anything else. It is harder than steel but lighter than steel, and cannot be damaged or faded by forging and polishing.
This silver-white metal has excellent ductility and is considered to be "light as feathers and as strong as dragon scales". Many forging masters and court warlocks are eager to use it, and it can be said to be priceless.
When he discovered this mithril vein, Hals felt like he was dreaming, and for a moment he couldn't believe it was real.
A mithril vein has been lying quietly underground for hundreds of years, its brilliance obscured and protected by the copper mine, just waiting for its destined master-Sir Hals, the future great noble!
"As long as I mine the mithril veins secretly, I can use this wealth to get rid of that little brat's control."
Hals secretly thought that he would use these mithrils in exchange for his promotion ladder, and his actions must be secretive.
So he immediately had the copper mine sealed off and no one was allowed in or out. As for the monster Hals who ran out, he didn't take it to heart. He still thinks that the "magic disaster" is just Byron's sensational statement.
Occasionally, a "beast tide" breaks out in the forest. This so-called "magic disaster" is just a special kind of beast riot. Those little devils look ferocious, but in fact they are not as difficult to deal with as a brown bear.
This is because the rural aristocrats do not have enough knowledge, their family background is shallow, and they sit in a well and look at the sky.
"This is really a miracle..." Hals sighed.
Since discovering this mineral vein, he has spent basically two-thirds of his time underground, personally supervising the miners' mining and never allowing anyone to hide it secretly.
Shining, hard and full of mystery, Hals held a small piece of mithril in his hand, felt its temperature carefully, then put the mithril to his mouth and kissed it, his expression was extremely intoxicating.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came.
"What is that sound? Haven't you found out yet?" Hals reprimanded in a somewhat stern tone.
Since the discovery of this mineral vein, no monsters have escaped from the cracks in the ground, but there are always some strange sounds in this dark environment, which makes people feel a little chilly.
"Sir, the two guards we sent out to investigate have not returned yet." Coren's face was a little ugly. He asked Hubble and Megan from the Knights to investigate, but there has been no response yet.
"What a loser!" Hals said angrily. When he becomes a viscount, he must reorganize his own army and let this useless waste go away.
"What is that..." Some miners discovered something was wrong.
"Sam is gone!"
Abel put down his mining pick and paid careful attention to his surroundings.
He has been working here day and night with this group of miners for several days. This black-hearted Hals does not regard them as human beings at all.
And he always felt that there was some unknown danger in this dark environment, as if there was some terrifying beast staring at them.
Just now, Sam next to him suddenly disappeared into the darkness. With the faint light of the torch, Abel saw something flashing away.
"Yin Wan is gone too!" Another miner shouted.
The fear of the unknown gradually overwhelmed the reason of this group of people. They were forced by Hals to mine mithril mine underground and were not allowed to go out. They were very dissatisfied.
Now the fear in his heart was ignited, which suddenly led to riots.
The miners dropped their picks and scrambled to escape back to the ground.
"Don't run away, Colen and his men will stop them!" Hals yelled anxiously.
If the news about the mithril mine leaks out, his dream of becoming a viscount may be shattered, and he will have to bear the wrath of Byron.
Discovering a mithril mine but not reporting it to the lord is evidence of concealment.
Colen hurriedly asked the Knights to seal the exit and shouted: "You filthy bugs, go back and continue mining ore!"
But the miners had long been fed up with this dark, devoid of freedom environment. They turned a deaf ear to Colen's words, and the crowd gathered together and bustled, trying to break through the knights' blockade.
"Give them some color and see."
Seeing that the situation was a little out of control, Hals signaled to Column.
"Do it!"
The guards of the Knights immediately drew their swords, and the miners who rushed at the front were pierced by the swords, which immediately frightened the people behind them.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
Blood and death are no joke.
"Run, run, there are monsters, fight them."
The crowd was already frightened, and the scene suddenly became quiet. Suddenly, someone seemed to have seen something, and shouted at the top of his lungs, and the crowd began to move again.
"What is that?"
Colon originally thought that the monster was just a rumor spread by the miners to provoke more people to flee together, but he also clearly saw a dark figure just now.
"ah!"
An extremely pitiful scream came.
A guard of the Knights was penetrated by a pair of huge fangs. Blood spurted out and his internal organs flowed all over the floor. The scene was extremely bloody.
"Oh my God!"
Colen was so frightened that he could not speak.
At this moment, with the help of torches, everyone finally saw clearly the appearance of the monster in the darkness.
A huge spider with a ferocious face, with a warm corpse hanging from its mouth, and its teeth opening and closing to make a chewing sound, which is creepy.
"Colen, bring someone to kill it, it's just a beast!" Hals will never allow anyone to get involved in this mithril mine.
"Bang!"
The iron door to the exit was slammed shut.
"No one is allowed to leave!"
The monster went on a killing spree among the crowd, and the miners became abandoned objects and fled in all directions.
Under Hals's order, Colen could only bite the bullet and lead the knights to surround and kill the giant spider.
"Damn it, you will definitely die if you stay here any longer."
Abel felt desperate when he saw the iron door being closed by Hals. He looked at the corpses on the ground and could only pick up a torch and run into the darkness.
