Chapter 1399: Mining Area

After playing the game together for such a long time, Wang Yu knew that Fearless was plotting something again.

It was to the point where if Fearless were to raise his butt, Wang Yu would know what kind of poop would come out.

Like what was mentioned in previous chapters, Quan Zhen Sect was not a mainstream guild as they were planning to embark on the elitist path. The whole guild only had a few members and it operated in a significantly different manner from Sanguine Alliance.

For Quan Zhen Sect to have a main city to themselves, they have to give authority to the other guilds to look after every city district of the island. Currently, Quan Zhen Sect already had three cities under them excluding the affiliated cities.

Twilight City and Harbor City had players from the Chinese server, hence they could make use of the other guilds to help with the development of the city. Now that Black Dragon Guild was gone, Yamatai City was only left with Quan Zhen Sect players.

A city would not be a city without any players.

Not only did main cities require a maintenance fee, quests had to be completed to obtain main city contribution points and these were not things that a single person could achieve.

No matter how good Quan Zhen Sect was, they weren’t able to replace a few million players.

The reason why Fearless told Evil Rampage about this was to make Evil Rampage bring his players to become free commoners in this city...

With Peerless Heaven’s number of players in Yamatai, it would not be easy for Black Dragon Guild to invade this place in the future.

Of course, what Fearless said about keeping the goodies within the family was not untrue as well. Even though Fearless let Peerless Heaven players become free labour for contribution points, all the resources on the island still belonged to Peerless Heaven and Quan Zhen Sect.

Having the exclusive rights to all the resources in a city was a VIP privilege that only big guilds who had a main city could enjoy. Fearless did not want to give such privileges to other guilds, hence Evil Rampage was the best choice.

With such a huge amount of resources in Yamatai City, they would be rich very soon if Quan Zhen Sect could be in charge of collecting rent and Peerless Heaven in charge of mining.

...

After speaking to Fearless, Wang Yu looked for Evil Rampage’s name in his friends list and gave him the authority. Evil Rampage reached after a short while.

“Hey, brother, hi, Fearless!” Evil Rampage greeted both of them.

“En!”

Wang Yu nodded his head calmly and showed a strict older brother look. Fearless answered with a smile, “How are you, Evil?”

“I’m fine!” Evil Rampage was swift as ever and went straight to the topic after giving a short response, “Let’s go to the mining area.”

“Why the hurry? Don’t you want to have a sip or two with us?” Fearless asked politely.

“I don’t have time for that...” Evil Rampage waved his hands and continued, “There are a few accounts from some main cities that were not balanced. I have to go take a look later on.”

Evil Rampage’s business was spread across two factions and three hundred main cities. It was not surprising for the accounts to not be balanced since it was the first time Evil Rampage started a company, and he obviously had to go down to settle the accounts personally.

“Let’s head to the mining area then!” After knowing that Evil Rampage had things to be done later on, Fearless stopped dragging and went to the mining area with the Wang brothers.

...

Yamatai City’s mining area was in the rural area of the city that could only be reached after many turns. It was a relief that all three of them could fly and could get there in a straight route.

After about ten minutes, the three of them reached the ming area and all of them looked down at the glow from the minerals.

“How is that?” Fearless asked Evil Rampage, “The minerals here are not bad, isn’t it?”

However, Evil Rampage frowned and said, “The minerals are great indeed, but they are a little weird.”

“Weird?” Wang Yu and Fearless were not mining professionals after all and showed a confused expression.

“En!” Evil Rampage pointed to the mining area underneath them and continued, “The minerals here are way more abundant than the ones that the other main cities have!”

“Isn’t that great?” Fearless scratched his head.

Minerals are finite resources, so nobody would mind having more of them.

“No!” Evil Rampage shook his head, “There must be some problem with this kind of minerals!”

In the game, balance was key and mining areas were similar to that of Magic Academies and Churches, and was a standard place that every main city should have. Most of the time, mining areas would be filled with zombies and even if there was a difference, it would not be much.

In terms of the designer’s point of view, the minerals were one of the most important resources on earth, and hence every main city would be built near a mining area.

However, Yamatai City’s mining area was different. The mining area here was obviously bigger than others and the rich minerals here could be seen with the naked eye. What was weirder was that such a mine did not even have mine caves.

Mine caves were produced by the system and if the mine did not have mine caves, it could only mean that the mine had never been mined until now.

There were two reasons as to why the mine had not been mined.

Firstly, the minerals in this area were set to be low valued minerals and did not provide any incentives for mining.

Secondly, this mining area was set to be a dangerous site and ordinary players would not have the ability to open up a mining site here.

Both the above reasons would lead to a huge loss.

Evil Rampage had to explain this to Wang Yu and Fearless since they were so confused.

“No wonder...”

Wang Yu and Fearless touched their chins with something in their minds.

Evil Rampage was a businessman and his players depended on mining to earn a living as well. Anything that had a risk of making a loss was not the ideal environment they had. Nobody would want to make a loss just for maintaining relationships.

However, Evil Rampage did not say that the place was not suitable either as he looked down instead and said, “Let’s go down there and have a look!”

Evil Rampage landed on the ground steadily after keeping his wings.

Wang Yu and Fearless landed after awhile.

Evil Rampage took out a mining hoe and scraped the side of the cliff walls and that made Wang Yu and Fearless look in awe.

Indeed a professional mining businessman!

“Dang!”

A light noise interrupted their thoughts and a golden mineral fell onto the ground.

“Soft gold ore?”

Evil Rampage looked at the ore that fell and muttered to himself then picked the ore up. After looking at the ore’s attributes, his expression became complex.

Evil Rampage was right as this piece of ore was indeed the soft gold ore.

Soft gold was of a similar grade as silver. Although Evil Rampage’s mining hoe provided him with a bigger possibility of getting him a top-quality ore, the fact that this piece of ore came out right after random scrapes meant that it did not come out because of the hoe. It was due to the fact that this entire area was a top-quality mining area.
