C2126 The Drill Bit
Mubai gave him a meaningful look.
Yan Shouxin could only attribute the reason to the good weather.
The snowstorm in the sky had been dispersed. There was a trace of warmth in the cold air, which was conducive for a short rest after the cultivation.
Even if he spat out lotus flowers, the four city lords wouldn't believe a single word.
Before long, the arena and the surrounding facilities were completed.
It was pretty decent.
The hired warriors started their own training and the leader was Miao Yuanshan.
Mu Chen and Miao Yuanshan had a head-on confrontation, so he knew that the other party's identity was the guard of the secret vault.
But he could only stare helplessly.
The other party even pretended to invite Mu Chen to their residence for a search to confirm if there were any fugitives.
The structure of the row of iron houses was simple, and could be seen through with a single glance.
Such an excuse was useless.
The secret competition between the others did not affect these treasure hunters in the slightest. They were as calm as still water, silently carrying out their plans.
One day, Apache found Mu Chen and needed a variety of special tools.
"There are signs of melting at a depth of twenty to thirty meters on the surface of the frozen soil. However, day and night change, and at night, a part of the frozen soil will be frozen."
"With the increase of the depth, the heat's transmission effect is also weakening rapidly."
"To use special metal tools to penetrate deep into the frozen soil without melting, like laying a foundation."
This was not a difficult thing for Mu Chen.
He took the mutated iron wire worm and walked into the circle of light with her.
The originally hard ground turned into wet silt, and the resistance was negligible.
The Mutated Iron Wire Worm used metal powder to condense the shape of a drill bit and easily pierced it into the ground.
One, two, dozens of them covered the area where the circle of light was.
As the depth of the melting increased, the long and thin drill could also increase its length, because there were endless raw materials.
"It's best if it can reach a speed of dozens of meters a day."
"If we delay too long, I'm afraid the city lords will return home."
"How is that possible?"
The drill that was exposed to the surface was like a black iron pillar. It was only a meter tall.
Mu Chen took out a fire attribute energy crystal and buried it in the shape of a small mound. After that, he lit up a raging fire.
Dozens of piles of flames appeared in the area covered by the circle of light, but they did not attract the attention of the people from the Guild Alliance.
A small bonfire was nothing. Even using the Asura Cannon to bombard it repeatedly could not damage the layer of frozen earth in a short period of time.
"With this method, the efficiency of heat transmission will be even faster."
"Indeed."
"What should we do at the critical moment?"
Apache did not summon too many bounty hunters, but there were more than a hundred warriors on the other side.
The difference in strength was huge.
The four city lords had to maintain a neutral attitude on the surface, and it was impossible for them to let the official team become Mu Chen's hired thugs.
"Let's still use the same method."
"When the depth is about the same, we will use an explosion method to create an incomparably huge sinkhole."
"Standing at the edge, you can see the buried Ancient Capital."
"After that, announce that the fugitives are hiding inside and want to go in and search."
"The wealth gathered by the union alliance is not completely clean. Maybe there are precious treasures of other martial arts sects stored inside. If they appear in front of everyone, it will be considered as stolen goods."
There was nothing to nitpick about the idea, but Apache believed that there was no way to carry it out at all.
More than a hundred masters of the enemy were not just for show.
When they were about to fall out with each other, they would have to fight to the death.
"Life is more important than money. When the other side attacks with all their strength, we will retreat without hesitation."
"Don't worry. I'll also gather a large number of people to come here."
"When the Guild Alliance monopolizes the industry, they will suppress the various business families. There are a lot of people who are dissatisfied. We can summon them here to make a name for ourselves."
What Mu Chen was talking about was a family like Wan Mingzhu.
Ever since the Safety Patrol Guards were established, the life of the small families had been even worse.
The guards claimed that it was a public service organization to maintain the peace of the Heaven Realm, which meant that they would not collect any fees from the people who asked for help.
It was very effective to seize the market free of charge.
No matter how strong they were, they would always send enough people to the suppliers.
On the surface, they were very good at it.
The peers were also forced into a corner, and their lives were getting worse and worse.
Mu Chen personally repaired the book and asked the Mutated Iron Wire Worm to send a clone to Wan Mingzhu.
When these people arrived, the excavation work was also coming to an end.
He lit so many bonfires for no reason and successfully attracted the attention of the presidents.
"What kind of trick is Mu Chen playing now?"
"The bright lights here have nothing to do with cultivation. Maybe they are going to attack the secret vault."
"Don't be nervous."
"There's not even a trace of a pit being dug. This kind of guess is not very reliable."2
"No matter what, we have to find an opportunity to start a fight with these people."
Zi Ning was already impatient.
The business of the Guild Alliance was very good. The three guild leaders could not stay here for too long, but if Mu Chen and the others did not retreat, they did not dare to leave midway.
"We can also claim that we have found clues about the escaped criminal and bring Mu Chen and the others to search."
"The location will be the abandoned ancient city that has just been dug up."
"That place is the best battlefield. Even if we fight until the sky turns dark, it won't attract the attention of outsiders."
Seventy kilometers north of the Eagle Sorrow Stream, the official team had already excavated the ancient city according to the fake intelligence, but they did not explore it deeply.
Several hundred years ago.
Several hundred years ago. When the Guild Alliance chose a secret treasury to build, they had investigated the nearby main cities.
With the advantage in terms of intelligence, Zi Ning made up her mind to kill Mu Chen.
The plan was set just like that.
The next morning.
Zi Ning brought a few capable men and anxiously came to the simple room where Mu Chen and the others were staying.
They shouted and called everyone out.
"Not good, not good!"
"We found traces of the escaped criminal!"
This serious topic made no one dare to be negligent, and all the important people rushed out of the room.
"Chairman Zining, can you confirm the other party's identity?"
"It's absolutely true."
"In the latter half of the night last night, a few escaped criminals secretly approached our garrison area. It's very likely that they want to steal wild survival materials."
"There was a short confrontation between the patrolling team members who were on night watch and the escaped convicts, but they didn't succeed."
"Then they fled in that direction."
Zi Ning's description was very vivid. How could the officials just sit back and do nothing?
Mu Chen did not believe this vicious woman, so he raised his doubts.
