Chapter 1218 Uniting with a Group of Devouring Beasts
After saying that, he glanced in the direction of Chu Chen and Ji Yue, then closed his eyes.
Soon after, the entire mining team gathered in the small world within the mining area.
Chu Chen and Ji Yue followed the crowd and entered their camp as usual.
Chu Chen entered Ji Yue's room without any hesitation.
Now that we've seen this centurion, let's be blatant and see just how many people are coveting everything we have.
"Chu Chen, this will only hasten their attack on you. This is a mining area; it's not safe here!"
"Haha, if I, Chu Chen, were afraid of death, I wouldn't have come here. Don't worry, we'll go down into the mine tomorrow. Today..."
After saying that, the two started a fire and cooked a meal. After enjoying a comfortable and satisfying meal, they took advantage of the fading sunlight...
The next day, Chu Chen, as usual, led Zhu Liu and his group into their mine.
To avoid disturbing others, Chu Chen parted ways with them shortly after entering, and went into an abandoned mine shaft by himself. Carrying his long sword, he cut out many small passages as easily as slicing tofu.
These passages are practically miniature versions of the Chu Tianjing maze.
Just after he finished the small maze, he suddenly heard a rustling sound of digging behind him.
Chu Chen smiled upon hearing this: "Come on over, it's been a long time, Little... Big Black!"
After saying that, he turned around and shone his flashlight on the distant Fel Eater, which turned out to be none other than his good partner, Little Black!
However, Little Black was much bigger than it had been a few months ago. If the tunnel I dug had been any smaller, this thing probably wouldn't have been able to get in.
"Hehe, how about it? Am I handsome or not?"
Having spent a full month with Chu Chen, his tone of voice was completely like that of a human being.
After saying that, he patted his chest like a gorilla.
"Um... how did you come up with the idea that you're related to the word 'handsome'?"
"Get lost! Where have you been these past few months? I've found a great place!"
"A good place?"
"That's right, come with me!"
After saying that, the Devouring Beast Dahei stretched out a claw, grabbed Chu Chen, and pulled him outside.
"Uh... so what I did!"
"Don't worry, this time I have a lot of multi-element stones on me and I've recruited a lot of followers. As long as you work hard, you'll definitely earn a lot!"
Chu Chen turned his head and glanced at his little maze, thinking to himself, "If it's ruined, so be it. I wonder which unlucky guy will wander in. It'll take a lot of effort to fix it!"
Immediately, the man and the beast rushed off into the distance, and about an hour later, they finally arrived at another passageway after many twists and turns.
Chu Chen calculated the location and found that he should still be in the mining area of his team, but he was already very close to other areas.
To avoid being recognized, Chu Chen simply put on a monkey mask.
There was no other way; if anyone saw him as colluding with the Flerken, the mine probably wouldn't even let him come.
Just as he put on the mask and turned a corner, he saw, in the beam of the powerful flashlight, eighteen Devouring Beasts staring at him expectantly right in front of him.
"Hey guys, this is the two-legged human I was telling you about, Chu Chen. If you want to get more multi-element stones, then you'd better work hard for me."
At this moment, Dahei acted like a nouveau riche, issuing his commands to the group of Devouring Beasts.
In an instant, all the Devouring Beasts waved their claws at Chu Chen.
Seeing this scene, Chu Chen turned back in surprise to look at the Devouring Beast, Da Hei: "Are you trying to work me to death?"
"Also, how should all the acquired multi-elemental stones be distributed?"
"Hehe, don't worry, I only need two floors. As for how to allocate them, you don't need to worry about that!"
Hearing the sudden addition of this layer, Chu Chen lowered his head in thought.
It's really not a big deal, it's only 20%, but if I make good use of so many Devouring Beasts, I can earn much more than before.
"Okay, I promise you, but this time, we're going to change our approach."
After saying that, Chu Chen turned to look at all the Devouring Beasts.
"Gentlemen, from now on, all the work of finding the multi-elemental stones will be under my command. In a moment, I will introduce you to some symbols and a unit of distance."
"Once you find the multi-element stone, mark it on the cave wall for me."
After saying that, Chu Chen produced more than ten rulers and sheets of paper with numbers from 0 to 10 written on them.
The method is quite simple: once they discover the multi-element stone, they make a preliminary calculation of how many meters it is, using a distance unit of one meter, and then mark it on the cave wall with numbers.
Simple addition, and even preliminary estimation, is not a difficult task for these Flerken, who can easily understand and learn human language.
In less than half an hour, the group of Devouring Beasts set out and began searching the cave walls, using this spot as the center.
Chu Chen, carrying a long sword, weaved through the group of Devouring Beasts.
"Hehe, two meters, not bad!"
After Chu Chen finished speaking, his longsword pierced the wall as easily as cutting tofu. Then, with a gentle stir, a multi-element stone appeared in his hand, which he then put into a cloth bag.
"Huh, it's only one meter here... Holy crap, so much."
Chu Chen held five or six multi-element stones in his hand, so excited he almost jumped up.
"Big Black, you've had a good haul! These thousand coins are yours."
A day later, Chu Chen tossed a cloth bag to Da Hei and said happily.
"Haha, Chu Chen, we've struck it rich this time! Shall we keep going?"
"Are you trying to work me to death?!"
"Alright, alright, you get some rest, I'll have them go look for it!"
After saying that, the Devouring Beast Dahei waved its hand, and all the Devouring Beasts rushed over, took the multi-element stones from Dahei's hand, and excitedly threw themselves back into the search.
Chu Chen started a fire and cooked, making a large pot and stewing a big pot of meat.
Just as Chu Chen and the Devouring Beasts were rapidly acquiring Multi-Element Stones, a group of people dressed in black rushed in from outside their passageway!
"Lord Commander..."
"Get lost! You're afraid people won't recognize me!"
"Pah... Young Master, there's no need to be so nervous. I've checked, they separated as soon as they came in, and he's probably all alone right now."
"Moreover, after a day's work, they must be exhausted by now!"
