The Game of Global Mining

Chapter 109: Taking a Detour through the Swamp


Kasha curiously said, "This path is just bothersome with insects. If it weren't for protecting the Crystal Pot, even a regular B-rank Mercenary Corps could handle it."

Aimee sighed, "There's no way around it, this is the only way through. Actually, if we really wanted to detour, it's not impossible, but it might take two or three days."

Wine Angel was also puzzled, "I haven't even put in any effort yet!"

Chun looked at the map and agreed, but still had his own idea, "Can't we go through the swamp via water route? After all, the car is hovering, and explosive jellyfish can float on water. We can just stay in the car, or the three Fallen Angels can ride on the jellyfish's back."

Kasha was shocked, "The swamp is also very dangerous, there are all sorts of Water Monsters. We Angels can't exert much power against Water Monsters!"

With her saying this, Chun honestly felt conflicted, was he just blindly directing without understanding the environment here?

At that moment, the Plague Angel spoke up, "I think the president's idea is worth a try! It's not that I don't trust the headquarters' chamber of commerce, but just judging from the previous packaging situation, the headquarters are the problem."

Another heart-to-heart speaking up for me! Even when I'm totally confused, should you unconditionally support me?

The Dark Elf spoke, "To avoid the forest's flying insects, you'd have to venture deep into the swamp until you can't see the shore, and by then the swamp is filled with toxic gas."

The Plague Angel said solemnly, "I can absorb the toxic gas!"

Everyone was shocked, "Is that your ability?"

The Plague Angel nodded.

Chun also expressed understanding, "Are there any other issues?"

Kasha sighed, "The other issue is that we know very little about this swamp, and our map only marks a range."

Wine Angel laughed heartily, "Since others know little, why not explore along the way, we might discover some little secrets?"

Volcano Dragon also spoke, "Even if we actually encounter Water Monsters, I would...like to try out the effect of this necklace, practice a bit more here, so I'll be more confident in fighting the Six-headed Serpent!"

What a loyal subordinate! Having someone blindly supporting feels really good as a president!

Kasha sighed, "If that's the case..."

Aimee, "Then let's do it that way..."

Chun was conflicted but relieved, "Let's do it that way."

Thus, the Dark Elf Medusa, Vampire Girl, and Chun squeezed into one car, while the three Angels rode on the back of the Volcano Dragon, and the Volcano Dragon officially entered the swamp. Aimee still enveloped the area around the truck and Volcano Dragon with a mist.

Can't deny, this floating, swaying feeling feels even less steady?

Chun realized that he's been here for almost two days, only focusing on mining outside the city without any knowledge of the surrounding situation. It's time to inquire about what's going on nearby.

"Whose asset is this Decaying Forest?"

Kasha said, "It's not anyone's asset, no family can develop this land. Because the insects here are actually some ancient demons from the deepest Abyss, they may not be very strong, but their survival ability is extremely strong. As long as there's a bit of resource, they can grow astonishingly fast. If a big family suffers casualties and contributes flesh and blood energy during forest development, it only leads to more and more of them. In fact, every now and then, when the number of insects increases, they come to attack the city, which provides a bit of entertainment for the bored big lords of the Demon Race."

The deepest Abyss? Insects? Could it be some unsolvable bug left over when the game was developed?

Chun was surprised, "Is it that difficult? Couldn't a Great Demon King easily flatten the entire forest with a meteor shower or something?"

Aimee exclaimed, "There have already been hundreds of meteor showers, but these trees can't be called plants anymore. They are a kind of charred mineral plant, still able to grow, but can't be used as wood and fuel. They're practically useless mineral slag."

Mineral plants again!? Maybe ask the leader?

Aimee said, "Actually, the chamber of commerce has development tasks. First buy the land, develop it, and get the chamber's approval, then you formally own the asset. Without any achievement, it gets reclaimed. These forests and swamps have all been reclaimed after failed development attempts."

Ah, so the Demon Race is wise. This way, there's no buying land just to hold it without developing, waiting for the price to rise.

Olka said, "Actually, this kind of forest development isn't something the Demon Race excels at."

Everyone suddenly paused, "Miss Olka is talking about the Forest Elves, right?"

Chun was suddenly startled, holy shit! Sure enough, if there are Dark Elves, there must be Forest Elves, a famous large race in the Magical World!

Olka chuckled, "If we could capture some who understand forest development, maybe the problem would be solved?"

Chun got excited, "So, Miss Olka, do you know where they are?"

Olka scoffed, "Hidden away, I don't know. If we knew, the Demon God would certainly launch a great attack to exterminate them."

So, this large race has become a hidden race among hidden races!

Aimee laughed heartily, "They say the Forest Elf women are elegant and noble, how could the Demon God bear to destroy them? Surely he'd keep a few of the most beautiful ones for his harem, and share some with various big hotels."

Holy shit!

Olka grumpily said, "How could they be that elegant? They're just pretending! Just paler skin, nothing more. Julia's is even paler!"

Julia sighed, "Our Blood Race needs blood nourishment, quite troublesome. Also don't like the sun. Unlike them, no matter how wild they get or how much sun they soak in, their skin stays pale..."

Holy shit, you all really know a lot!

Chun decided to comfort the Dark Elf, just so they don't hatefully hunt down all the Forest Elves they know.

"Actually, I think Miss Olka's complexion is really sleek and charming!"

All the women immediately became anxious, "President, what about my skin?"

Chun panicked, now how to compliment? Complimenting one offends another...

The Plague Angel spoke up, "Actually, I'm developing a kind of skin soap, just using it makes the skin better."

All the women became interested, "Is it the kind the President uses?"

"Yes! But I'm afraid the fragrance might not satisfy picky women. Also, the formula isn't that difficult, very easy for the big chamber of commerce to steal the technology."

Wine Angel sighed, "Indeed, my wine, as soon as I finished the advertisement, the idea was snatched, even the name was decided by the big chamber of commerce. I hadn't even thought of a name yet..."

Very good, you all have a knack for conversation.

At this moment, the Volcano Dragon spoke, "It seems there's something following me underwater! It seems...a bit stronger than me, what should I do?"

Chun immediately got nervous, if it dares follow, it must be stronger than you, you're just a small fry here!

Medusa immediately got spirited, "No problem, I'll cast an Earth Shield on you!"

Aimee also immediately became serious, "I'll create an Illusion to conceal your aura..."

Olka also spoke, "Everyone continue talking and laughing to distract the Water Monster, don't stop!"

So Chun immediately cooperated, "What name did the big chamber of commerce think of?"

Wine Angel said irritably, "Holy Wine!"

Everyone laughed heartily, "Did you drink the unsellable Holy Wine?"

"I can't bear to drink it..."
