Chapter 1104 - 1032: Attack on the Demon Mine

Under the personal operation of the Technical Director, Saisu’s Divine Fragment and a box of bloodstones brought by Da Fei were thrown into a furnace resembling a large washing machine.

The Technical Director confidently said, "Rest assured, Mr. Manager and Mr. Customer, we will guarantee with the honor of the Holy Crown Alchemy Guild that we will definitely create a hero body that satisfies Mr. Customer within three days."

Fatty also smiled with satisfaction, "Lord City Lord, leave it to us; it may not be the strongest in battle, but it will surely be the most beautiful!"

The Technical Director immediately added, "That’s right, Venus isn’t the strongest deity, but she does enthrall all beings—that is the power of beauty, the power of art!"

Absolutely right, beauty is justice! Da Fei said excitedly, "Great, then I will come to see the results in three days!"

Now there is nothing for Da Fei to do, it’s 3:30 in the morning, and he could completely sleep through these three days. But Da Fei was too excited to sleep, and the urgency of time added to his unwillingness to rest.

So, there’s nothing more to say; while there’s time, let’s flatten the Demon Clan Mine near Radiant City and then check out those five Holy Vines. Although the Flying no longer has masts and can’t operate normally, it doesn’t matter; it just needs to be able to teleport.

Thus, Da Fei returned to Radiant City to gather the troops for departure.

At this moment, Anlicia stepped forward to ask, "Lord City Lord, are you planning to occupy the Demon Clan Mine?"

Occupy? Da Fei’s brow twitched, he initially had this thought, but considering the vastness of the mine area, he didn’t have many troops, and its location might not be within the current plane for large-scale reinforcements, being very near Hell City; it’s feasible to raid and sabotage, but occupying it seems unrealistic?

Da Fei asked, "Do you think we can occupy it?"

Anlicia chuckled, "We can report the coordinates of the mine to the kingdom and request their military to help defend it, right?"

Report to the kingdom? Damn, I’ve tasted the sweet solo harvest from the Mercury Mine and have this habit of not sharing the Gemstone Mine unless absolutely necessary!

Da Fei frowned, "Request the kingdom’s military? After capturing the mine, will I split the profits with the kingdom?"

Anlicia shook her head and smiled, "Of course, not split; after all, the kingdom will be responsible for defending and exerting more effort. But isn’t it better than letting demons occupy it? Additionally, reporting it to the kingdom is a great merit."

Damn, I’d rather let the demons take over than share my profits with the kingdom, let alone let them take the bulk! But seeing Anlicia’s eager expression made Da Fei suddenly feel something amiss.

Da Fei queried, "Why did you suddenly bring up occupying the mine?"

Anlicia sighed, "After all, I am still a citizen of the Elf Kingdom and need to consider national interests. This Demon Clan Mine is beyond your manpower, letting demons long-term mining neither serves your interests nor the kingdom’s. Wouldn’t it be better to report it to the kingdom? What do you think?"

Da Fei suddenly realized! Whether it was the solo Mercury Mine or the secret Gemstone Mine cooperated with Makar, she was aware and participated, keeping it secret for me, which is the duty of a vice hero. But Anlicia’s vice hero identity is quite unique; her continuous introductions of Da Wei and Blood Slaughter to the Kingdom Academy say it all.

In other words, if I keep harming the Elf Kingdom’s interests, she won’t stand idly by? Okay, a patriotic youth, I admire it!

Da Fei hurriedly said, "Okay, it makes sense, then let’s report it immediately."

Anlicia rejoiced, "Good, Lord City Lord should say that it was only recently that we’ve decrypted the intelligence left by the demons. The General Staff will tend to be cautious and may not send reinforcements immediately; their first task is likely to have us lead the first attack and assess the situation before making a judgment, which won’t affect our combat. The more effort we put in, the greater the merit naturally, especially as you are about to engage in cross-regional warfare, the more support you get from the kingdom."

Da Fei suddenly understood! Even capturing a mine can be linked to cross-regional activities; thus, he must capture as aggressively as possible, especially when he’s about to owe a huge debt. If not now, then when?

Thus, Da Fei energetically followed Anlicia to teleport to the Elf Kingdom’s General Staff. Upon entering, he suddenly noticed that the General Staff was full of players, all from the Star Guild!

Oh no! Da Fei’s excitement was instantly swept away; he hates having players watch while doing secretive things, just like someone watching during a private moment. He hoped desperately that this event isn’t in public mode; otherwise, if he discusses matters, the entire scene will be aware, which would be bothersome. However, generally, player and NPC conversations are one-on-one, where other players can’t hear.

Da Fei’s appearance also surprised the group of players from Star Guild. At this moment, a player named Uranus greeted familiarly, "Didn’t expect to meet Brother Fei here, nice to meet you!"

He’s a major figure and super expert in Star Guild! Da Fei could only come forward and greet politely, "Good evening comrades, staying up overnight is tough for everyone."

The Star Guild members greeted, neither humble nor arrogant, "Good evening!" "Hello!"

Uranus chuckled, "Brother Fei staying up for the nation is also tough! Brother Fei, what’s keeping you busy, anything we can help with?"

Da Fei laughed, "Just some minor matters, you all continue with your work."

Uranus joked, "Brother Fei, if you need anything don’t hesitate to ask, now that Brother Fei’s affairs are China’s affairs, we as large guild players have an obligation."

Da Fei laughed, "Thanks for that. By the way, meeting is fate, let’s add each other as friends."

Uranus laughed, "It’s an honor to add Brother Fei as a friend!"

While Da Fei was chatting with Uranus, Anlicia had already mysteriously finished discussing matters with the Chief of Staff, apparently in confidential mode, without alerting other players.

At this moment, the Chief of Staff urgently motioned for Da Fei, "Lord City Lord, please come over!"

Da Fei then laughed to the players, "Alright, I’m off for discussions, you all carry on!"

"Brother Fei is busy!"

Da Fei came before the Chief of Staff, who was indeed excited, "Lord City Lord, it’s a great merit for the kingdom that you discovered this pest. We will fully support you in capturing this mysterious mine, but we currently lack the quick deployment of forces, and request that Lord City Lord conduct an initial attacking exploration; we will send an observer along to assess the enemy’s strength!"

—System Prompt: You have received the Elf Kingdom’s merit task "Attack Mysterious Mine".

Is this the feeling of having everything under control? Da Fei chuckled, "I will definitely complete the task!"

Simultaneously, a familiar old acquaintance appeared, summoned by the Great Elder, who unexpectedly turned out to be the Observer Colonel from Radiant City’s overseen battle.

The observer chuckled, "Lord City Lord, we meet again. I will objectively and truthfully evaluate your merits, rest assured."

Just assess whether this mine is worth the kingdom’s military intervention? You were deeply impressed by my miracle striking down the Demon Eye Governor, how objective can you be? Da Fei laughed, "Rest assured, Observer Sir, I guarantee your safety with the troops; when I’m fine, you will be fine."

The observer chuckled, "Rest assured, Lord City Lord, even if you encounter problems, I won’t have any, wouldn’t be a burden."

Da Fei laughed, "Good, time is tight, the troops are ready, let’s set off."

So in the farewells of Uranus and other players, Da Fei spiritedly left the General Staff.

When Da Fei returned to Radiant City, he suddenly saw hundreds of Flower Demons flying around the docked Flying. Billbo, the Old Village Chief, and Heliana among others were waiting at the dock.

Upon seeing Da Fei, Billbo greeted from afar, "Lord City Lord is back!"

There’s potential! Da Fei’s brow twitched and he hurried forward to ask, "Everyone, what’s this?"

Billbo excitedly said, "We heard Lord City Lord participates in cross-regional tasks and is soon to depart on the kingdom task, so I’m immediately sponsoring the results of my research to you!"

—System Prompt: You received 10 Crossbow Cannon components ’Dragon Sinew Cannon Rope’ from Billbo, installing them improves the Crossbow Cannon’s range by 30% and attack by +30!

Da Fei was shocked: "Dragon sinew?"

Billbo proudly said, "Of course, it’s from the Earth Dragon’s body that Lord City Lord slain, its thick dragon sinew can only be used on large items like Crossbow Cannons. It’s the result of my research into Hell Siege Machines with Mr. Will! And there’s more ahead, please wait for my subsequent progress!"

Years of cultivation have finally borne fruit! Da Fei, delighted and moved, said, "That’s great! I await more progress!"

At this moment, the Old Village Chief also laughed, "Lord, hearing that you are departing, we dispatched 300 temporarily trained special Flower Demons to assist!" (To be continued.
