Different World: The Devil's Coming
Chapter 74 Arrival at the Mine
During dinner, Mo Fan also told them that there might be treasures in the mine. However, when they heard that it was the Orb of the Dead, the two families were extremely reluctant.
"For soldiers who are ready to go to the battlefield at any time, death is the enemy. I don't want the Orb of the Undead. If the Ning family really gets it and does something with the Orb of the Undead, I will be the first to kill them." Prince Yuanming said.
"It's useless to our Sun family. We are businessmen and we uphold the philosophy of doing business with integrity. Otherwise, we wouldn't have so many friends helping us. The Orb of the Undead is more useful to powerful cultivators like you." Sun You from the Sun family said.
However, both Yuan Ming and Sun You expressed their hope that Mo Fan would go and take the Orb of the Dead. Since ancient times, everything related to the dead has been the source of disasters, at least in the civilian world. So the two did not want such things to appear near the border, and in addition to their trust in the morality of the Wanxiang Academy, they believed that even if Mo Fan got the Orb of the Dead, he would not do anything to harm the people.
Mo Fan felt warm at the trust of the two. He originally thought that the mine was jointly mined by the Ning and Sun families. Even if they got the Orb of the Dead, they would have to give some compensation to the Sun family. However, Sun You refused and said that taking the Orb of the Dead would be the greatest help to them.
How could Mo Fan refuse after hearing such a request? So before going to bed that night, he wrote down some practical methods of making ointments for treatment and gave them to the two of them before leaving the next day. Although there are some ointment recipes in the folk, there are not many types and the effects are not good. After all, there are alchemists, and those who have money can directly buy more effective potions. Most of the materials in the recipes left by Mo Fan can be found in the forest, which is very practical for daily use.
As for some ointments that can forcibly prolong life or regenerate broken arms, they also have precious and rare materials, and the production process is also quite complicated, so Mo Fan did not copy them down. Otherwise, how could he finish copying them in one night!
After saying goodbye to the two families at the city gate, Mo Fan set out for the mine. After all, they were mining together, so even if Sun Yang trusted the Ning family and handed the mine over to them, he still knew the location.
With the map in hand, Mo Fan hurried as fast as he could. Without Sun Yang and the other two, Mo Fan was very fast, and on the first day he covered almost the same distance as the previous two days. If Mo Fan continued to travel at night, he might be able to reach Ningcheng before dawn.
The mine was near Ningcheng, so Mo Fan decided to go back to Ningcheng first to see how the Ning family reacted to Sun Yang and his friends' departure. He could also see if they would be wary of Mo Fan going to the mine, so as to avoid an ambush.
The next morning, Mo Fan set out again. It took him an hour or two to get to Ningcheng and followed the crowd into the city. Since no one had seen Mo Fan, he did not hide. Instead, he wandered around the city and waited until dark to go to Ning's house to check the situation. Although he was wandering around, Mo Fan was still gathering intelligence as usual. This time, he disguised himself as an adventurer, which was also his job.
After staying in the Adventurer's Association for a while, Mo Fan left after hearing that the Ning family seemed to have some commotion yesterday and sent some soldiers to the direction of the mine. It seemed that the number of people at the mine had increased, which invisibly brought pressure to Mo Fan.
First, it was Ning Tian and his five companions, which could be explained as encountering the demons. But what about the remaining thirty people? The Ning family might have discovered the death of thirty people. If that were the case, it would be difficult to go to the mine to seize the treasures.
But Mo Fan did not give up and found a hotel to stay in. At night, Mo Fan did not go out rashly because he found that the city was unusually quiet. Oh, not the sound, but there was no one watching the city in the dark, which was a very abnormal situation.
After observing again and again, Mo Fan turned over and went out, approaching the Ning family's mansion from the roof. After observing with the magic eye, he found that there were no guards in the dark, so Mo Fan sneaked in directly. After a detailed search for half an hour, Mo Fan found that there was no one from the main family in the mansion. The only ones left were the Ning family's side branches, or some servants.
It looks like they are all going to the mines. Mo Fan came to a conclusion and went back to the hotel to sleep. After breakfast the next morning, he left Ningcheng and walked a few kilometers in the direction of Baocheng. After confirming that no one was following him, he made a big detour and headed towards the mines. As for why they didn't go directly at night? Why rush? They are a group of ordinary people. Even if there are adventurers, they are only level 30 at most. If there are really level 40... then they will run away.
After a while of running around, Mo Fan arrived above the mine. The mine was inside a cave, and outside the cave there were many people coming in and out. There were also some buildings on the square outside the cave, which looked like miners' dormitories. However, one of the houses was more luxurious and even cleaner, which should be where the leader lived.
Mo Fan quietly moved over. Although there was only one entrance to the mine, as long as Mo Fan did not enter the mine and sneaked around the square, it would be easy. After all, there were a lot of ores and other sundries on the square. With the help of these, Mo Fan could slowly approach the luxurious house.
"Why is it so slow? How long will it take to get the Orb of the Dead? Are those mercenaries useless?"
"Master, please be patient. They are all famous adventurers in the area, and all of them are strong men over level 30. They will definitely succeed."
"Hmph! It's better this way, otherwise don't blame me for making them suffer..."
Mo Fan was listening outside the house. The person inside seemed to be the head of the Ning family? However, the people they hired were quite strong, all of them were over level 30. Moreover, if it was a small team, then they would definitely have a complete set of equipment, including warriors, mages, priests, etc. This was not good news. Mo Fan had already backed off.
Although the Orb of the Dead is not so easy to get, and the adventurer team may not be able to get it, but getting it is one thing, and taking it away is another. It is a bit unrealistic for Mo Fan to take the treasure from a level 30 team. If he activates the demonization, he may try, but it is just a try. After the demonization, Mo Fan can fight against people over level 30, but it does not mean that he can fight against a full team.
But there seems to be a chance. This master said to let them look bad? What right does an ordinary family have to say to let a level 30 team look bad? Unless...
