17-26 gossip 31 What 'Mole' Found

On August 4, the Underground Exploration Magic Machine and the Mole began underground exploration of the Inad Mine.

The 'mole' resembles a shield machine used in modern Earth for tunnel digging and so on, two metres in diameter and three metres in length cylindrical.

I can do two kinds of digging using the "Digging" magic guide and a hyper-adamantite chip.

The excavated dirt and sand is discharged into the ground by means of a transporter.

It has an acoustic probe (sonar) and a magic detector (magi director) and digs in as it explores foreign objects in the ground. To make sure you don't miss your precious reserves.

The drilled hole is enchanted with the magic of "Toughening (Toughening)" to prevent it from falling.

It was impossible to slow down the drilling speed while exploring the reserves.

We only know that there was once an unfamiliar demon guide when a giant hundred feet (Gigantopeder) crawled out.

There was a downfall before confirming its use, and everything was buried.

"First of all, 200 meters underground is your goal."

Along the way, he dug out some zinc ore, 'flashing zinc ore', while 'moles' were aiming for the ground.

On August 12th, 50 meters underground. A little arsenic iron ore (arsenic and iron sulphide minerals) and yellow iron ore were found.

August 21st, 100 meters underground. Mine Kanlan stone.

September 1, 150 meters underground. Pomegranate stone found.

And on September 9th, 200 meters underground. It is the depth at which giant hundreds of feet (gigantopeders) have crawled out.

More cautiously, the 'mole' dug in.

"There is something"

Craftsman (Smith) 3, who was in charge of operating the "mole," put in a report for you.

"It's a broken magic guide. supposedly crushed by the fall"

Copy that. Collect it and forward it here.

Craftsman (Smith) 3 followed your instructions and when he carefully dug out the magic guide, he changed the settings of the transporter and sent it out.

And dig further.

On September 10, the 'mole' hit a cavity near 220 meters underground.

"What is this place?

It was likely about a kilometer deep, and more than 300 meters wide. From the floor to the ceiling it is about twenty meters, exactly a large cavity.

But it was clearly artificial there.

For the walls, the floors, and the ceilings were unnaturally flat.

Craftsman (Smith) 3 put in a report for you. Then there was a response asking that the space be examined in detail, and the artisans (Smith) 4 and 5 were sent to support them.

Three craftsmen (Smith) split up to find out.

"Mysterious Magic Instrument Discovery"

"Mysterious Material Discovery"

"Mysterious Substance Discovery"

There was one new discovery after another. And there are even more surprising discoveries.

"There is probably a room that seems to be a processing facility"

As we call it here, 'treatment facilities' are equipment that treats the carcasses of organisms, that is, burns and dissolves them.

"At this scale, you must have handled quite a bit of it."

Craftsman (Smith) 3 reported to you.

"Is this...? Golem found, but no longer moving."

In the end, when it comes to what we discovered in the underground cavity, there are four mysterious magic guides. This is of the same type, so the application seems the same.

Mysterious material, an unknown organism, presumably taken from a warcraft. That's roughly fifty tons.

Mysterious substance. Black powder in a crystal storage container. Approximately 20 grams.

The broken golem had nothing to see.

The mysterious magic guide is being analyzed on the spot.

Mysterious materials and substances were then sent to Penglai after all possible research and analysis by artisans (Smith) to make sure there was no danger.

When Jen received the black powder, he opened his eyes.

"... Psychocatalyst...!

Yes, that was the same mental catalyst Jen gave away from "No. 700672" a while ago.

"How did this happen?" 700672 said it would take a million units of brain to harvest from organisms in this world.

At that time, the craftsman (Smith) contacted me.

'Master, old man, I know what the magic guide is used for. It helps to collect free magic elements (ethers).'

"What's so different about that from an ether converter?

"Yes, it's just a collection of free magic elements."

"Huh?"

The point is, they collect free magic hormones (ethers) from the surrounding space and help to increase the concentration of free magic hormones (ethers) within a specific range.

Not long ago, for what? As you might have thought, Jen now had an idea of the purpose.

"Maybe the Demons...... no, it was made by 'The Origins'?

The climate is harsh in the north and less free magic (ether) in the south. The countermeasure is to stay warm in the north or collect free magic (ether) in the south.

And the equipment gathers free magic elements (ethers) to increase their concentration.

"It seems to be more efficient than the ones used in the Magic Library (ether stocker) and Free Magnetic (ether) boxes."

"I see. Can I just say 'Free Magnetic Condenser (ether capacitor)'?"

Jen instructs you to send it here as well. And you, old man, make another big discovery.

"Master (My Lord), what if that place was a Warcraft Ranch?

Old man mentioned his speculation that he was cultivating a warcraft in a place with high concentrations of free magic (ether), removing the 'psychic catalyst' from its brain, and collecting it.

I immediately agree with Jen because she felt it too thinly.

And over the years, the Originals or their descendants disappeared and simply left a golem to continue working.

Jen also agreed to that.

"Either way, I'm thankful you got a little 'psychic catalyst'. Maybe I don't need to use it anymore."

An agreement with the Demons was just concluded the other day.

But for the creator, securing the material is definitely something that spreads his dreams very much in the sense of expanding his future possibilities.

"Send me a sample of the mysterious material too."

"Okay."

And Jen takes the material sent to me. Silver gray, glossy and light. The planar but amorphous is presumably due to the fact that it is a biological material and that it is processed flat.

It was presumably the crust of the Warcraft, etc., which harvested the 'mental catalyst'.

That amount of fifty tons was a bit unimaginable and impossible for Jen to imitate how many years it took and how many warcraft it crushed because of the 'psychic catalyst' harvesting.

However, the material left behind will be best provided by Jen.

"Hmmm...... that's unknown material"

Jen put it on hold to think slowly about the properties and applications.

"Perhaps you mean the side effect of the 'Free Magnetic Condenser (Ether Capacitor)', which affected it and gave birth to that giant hundred feet (Gigantopeder)"

Old man made a guess. Jen thinks the same thing.

"I guess there are no more giant hundred legged (gigantopeders) around?

'Yes, it doesn't seem to react that way within a kilometer of the perimeter'

"All right, let's leave the cavity investigation to Craftsmen (Smith) 4, 5, and let's go underground for a little bit more."

So Craftsman (Smith) 3 was to dive the 'mole' deeper underground.

I don't even seem to need to worry about it anymore, so I'll try to increase my drilling speed.

Digging fifty metres in a day, the 'mole' had found natural gold and natural platinum, plus iridosmin (an alloy of iridium and osmium).

Iridosmin is a metal that is welded to the tip of a fine fountain pen, rubbing against the paper, to make it hard and difficult to wear.

"Not much use, but Saki or Toa might be happy..."

Jen thought about it and saved it on the material shelf.

The "mole" then continued to dig deeper into the ground, reaching a relatively large mineral range of demonic crystals (Magi Crystals) near 500 meters underground.

The color is milky white, the average all-attribute Demonic Crystal (Magi Crystal).

"With all this, Kaina Village's budget is cheap for the other 500 years or so..."

It was Jen's technology and Penglai materials that made it possible, and if you look at the cost-effectiveness, it's not that big of a profit, but Jen won't understand it.
