He is the Lord of MC, not the God of Light!

Chapter 58: Evil Spirit Badminton, everyone who has played it says it’s good

Since ancient times, money has attracted people's hearts.

This is especially true for gold.

The netherworld has many gold veins that are easy to find, and this alone is enough to make it a paradise in the hearts of Lyal and others.

……

The Dawn Religion is developing very well. It has food and troops.

In the most barren area of ​​the Hundred Races Alliance's territory, such an achievement has surpassed 90% of the cities.

But this does not mean that the Dawn Cult is developing without flaws.

The Dawn Cult is so poor!
It has jurisdiction over the Black Water City, more than 5,000 people who have just had enough food, and more than 3,000 lonely Winged People.

I guess if you can get a hundred gold coins at most, you would be considered rich.

What can you buy with 100 gold coins?
Fifty inferior horses.

One hundred finely forged swords.

Ten sets of armor.

To support one hundred families in the capital who live above the poverty line for a year...

Of course, there is the MC world, weapons, armor, war horses, food...

Nothing is missing and the quality is better.

But this does not mean that Ian does not need gold coins. In the early stages of the development of the Dawn Cult, his demand for gold coins was still quite large.

After all, not everyone can enter the MC world, and not everyone can use MC equipment.

The purchase still needs to be made.

Besides, the Vatican Army cannot always use food as wages in the future, or even directly bind them with faith and let them fight for Ian without wages.

Ian is not that shameless.

A mature and stable economic system must be built!
With the Netherworld, a good place for producing gold, the construction of the Dawn Cult's economic system will also be on the fast track.

At last……

The Dawn economic system replaces the Rodri continent economic system, relying on economic control and faith control.

The benefits of this are self-evident.

In the short term...

If you have money in your pocket, you won’t be worried.

……

The location of the Netherworld when I first arrived was actually quite good.

It’s not that there is a netherworld gold mine right outside the door, but the sea of ​​magma. The existence of this thing is very helpful for Ian to find the netherworld fortress.

As for resources like soul sand, nether wart, and even ancient remains, although we haven't seen them yet, they are here and will appear sooner or later.

This time, Ian plans to take Layal and the others to stay in the underworld for three or four days.

The demolition work in Blackwater City was almost completed in three or four days.

At that time, let nuns like Lacia do the construction and show some MC miracles, which can also pave the way for them and facilitate their future job transition from nun to Virgin Mary.

In addition, you can't sleep in the Nether. You have to stay up all night here for three days, and then go back and wait until night to brush the phantom wings.

By then, a batch of slow-falling potion will also be made.

After finishing his plan, Ian took out an iron pickaxe and walked over to Lecia and pushed her away.

"That's not how you dig gold mines in the netherworld."

As he said that, he quickly started working with his pickaxe, and in no time, a gold mine from the netherworld was smashed out.

Unlike Laial and the others who only dropped a few gold particles after digging, what Ian dug out was a whole piece of original Nether gold ore.

Seeing this, Layal straightened up and looked at Ian in confusion.

"Master Ian, why are the mines we dig different? Why didn't yours drop any gold nuggets?"

Ian waved the pickaxe in his hand and said with a smile:
"Watch my pickaxe."

"Master Ian, have you got a new pickaxe? Where's the old one?"

"The old one was put in the Abyss for recycling. The Abyss is a large platform, safe and reliable..."

"what?"

Seeing the confused expressions of Layal and the others, Ian coughed dryly and waved his hand:
"Muscle reaction, don't worry about it."

Since Ian said so, Leal and the others didn't ask any further questions.

Ian continued:
"Remember, when you dig gold in the Nether, you must use a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch, and burn it in a furnace after digging it out."

Markov scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course!"

Ian put his hands on his hips and smiled:
"When you dig for gold, how many gold particles do you drop at a time?"

"I can't say for sure."

Furenyi nodded her chin and recalled for a moment before she said uncertainly:
"Sometimes two or three fall off, sometimes up to six."

After saying that, Furenie clapped her hands happily.

"Master Ian, with the quality of Dawn Heaven's gold, one gold grain can probably be exchanged for at least dozens of gold coins."

"In just a short while, I've already dug up twelve gold nuggets, earning us a ton of gold coins!"

"Master Ian, you're absolutely right. You can even pick up money while walking here!"

Ian smiled without saying anything and ruffled Phryne's hair.

Set the furnace aside instead.

Throw the gold ore in for smelting, and after a while, you will get a freshly minted gold ingot.

Ian weighed the gold ingot in his hand and turned to look at the dumbfounded Frannie and others.

"Do you remember how many gold nuggets make up a gold ingot?"

"Nine...nine..."

"Yes!"

Ian stuffed the precisely collected enchanted pickaxe into the arms of Lecia, who was standing there in a daze, and gave her a reminder at the end.

"Don't just keep digging. Pay attention to your surroundings. If a piglin sees you digging for gold, they will attack you."

Regardless of whether they listened to him or not, Ian just strolled away with his hands behind his back to play badminton with the evil spirit in the distance.

After a long time, Layal finally reacted and began to do mental arithmetic on his fingers.

A gold ore can drop a gold ingot with silk touch.

Without precise collection, taking the average of three gold nuggets, you need to dig three mines to make a gold ingot.

After a few rounds, two gold ingots and eighteen gold grains disappeared out of thin air.

Convert it...it doesn't convert at all!
That’s real money!
All gone!
"Snapped!"

Markov, who had just come over, covered his face with a look of grievance.

"Godfather! Why did you hit me?"

Layal's hands were shaking and his tone was sad.

"How much money did I just waste?"

"...Then hit yourself! I didn't dig up many!"

Markov stared at Leal with resentment. Leal seemed to have aged several years in an instant, his eyes fixed on the gold mine on the ground.

But he didn't dare to use the pickaxe to smash it.

"I am the Cardinal of the Dawn Cult. My face is useful."

"What are you talking about? My face is useless?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

Leal glared at Markov and said bitterly:

"None of our pickaxes have precise picking capabilities, Maid Lacia. We're counting on you."

"I see."

Lecia held the pickaxe tightly in her hand and began to carefully collect the remaining gold ore.

……

About a few minutes later.

"Nice smash! Go to hell!"

He pulled the fireball back with a sword and killed the evil spirit in the air instantly. Ian rubbed his wrist with a happy mood.

Although the Tear of the Evil Spirit fell into the lava and disappeared, this was also Ian's first chance to play badminton since he came to the continent of Rodri.

Being happy is the most important thing.

Looking back at the listless people like Lecia walking behind him, Ian smiled and teased.

"Get rich?"

Layal's face instantly turned more miserable than Markov's.

"Please stop teasing us, Master Ian. You should have told us about this earlier. We've wasted so much gold!"

"Then I have to have a chance too!"

Ian rolled his eyes.

"As soon as you saw the gold, you shouted 'heaven' and 'get rich' and rushed over, your eyes red. I didn't dare to stop you."

"Master Ian..."

"Okay, enough joking around, how much gold did you dig up?"

Hearing this, Freni jumped out immediately.

"I recorded it! Master Ian!"

"There are nine gold ingots in total, which is just enough to combine into one gold nugget, but...it could have been more."

As Furenyi spoke, she became a little depressed.

Ian scratched Phryne's nose.

"It doesn't matter. In the underworld, gold is not a precious thing. There are as many of them as you want. It's more than enough to build you a golden house."

"Mining is already the slowest way."

"When we meet the piglings later, I'll let you know what it means to rob faster than to earn."

Everyone believed what Ian said, except for the sentence "The underworld is not hell".

Besides, if these nine gold ingots are combined into a gold block and sold, they can fetch at least ten thousand gold coins.

After all, you have picked up money. There is no need to be too greedy or to continue to look sad.

After adjusting her mindset, Lecia looked curiously at Ian who was gesturing with the diamond enchanted sword.

"Master Ian, what are you doing?"

"Playing badminton, do you want to try?"

"badminton?"

Lecia was a little confused, but she could see that Ian's target was the creature floating on the lava sea. Although it looked cute, its cry was particularly miserable.

It's quite scary...

Shivering, Lecia hid behind Ian.

"Master Ian, how about we continue looking for gold? Or maybe look for the pig spirits you mentioned..."

Ian smiled and said:
"But after playing badminton, you can drop Ghast Tears. Do you know what Ghast Tears are used for?"

Layal and others were stunned for a moment.

This smile looks so familiar, as if Ian had smiled like that when he talked about the gold mine just now.

After a moment of silence, Leal said uncertainly:

"Is it...more important than gold?"

"Remember the arrows of regeneration you used when you fought the demons?"

"what?"

"Ghost Tears can be used to make a regeneration potion, which has the same effect as the arrow of regeneration."

"what?!"

After a chorus of exclamations, everyone digested the news in a familiar silence.

A moment later, Markov swung his iron sword and strode to Ian.

"I come!"

After saying that, he paused again and moved closer to Ian with a flattering look on his face.

"Master Ian, how do you fight this thing?"

Ian rolled his eyes and whispered something to Markoff.

Markov nodded thoughtfully and stood on the cliff by the lava sea.

He took a horse stance and extended his right fist forward.

His face was serious and his energy was concentrated.

Then, under the expectant gaze of everyone.

Markov punched out his index finger and hooked it back.

"Come here!"
