95: Occupy the Ancient Mine

“I'm running out of time. Even with the protection of Undead magic, the crystal only has three health points left. I don't even dare to cast magic. I must speed up...”

.......

The time span before and after these events was a full thousand years.

Han Huohuo finally understood after reading to the end. He had a plan to recast the crystal, using the black oil from the Black Dragon's remains and the soul crystals from these White Dragon remains to forge his own crystal.

An ambitious guy! He was trying to be a creator.

What a pity.

He was broken by my simple phrase, “It's not a crystal.”

If all of this had nothing to do with crystals, wouldn't recasting the crystal become a joke?

A thousand years of effort, enduring endless torment.

To be honest, this guy is a bit pathetic.

Moreover, this guy should have had some insidious moves to deal with me, but he didn't have time to use them after he was broken.

There were also some giant python plans and a translation book later.

After looking through the translation book, this thing, which was neither human nor ghost, was truly a genius. He actually translated the difference between ancient text and modern text.

Through this translation book, Han Huohuo could now understand the description of this even stranger ruin.

He walked to the main control console.

There was a row of buttons, some with ancient text and some with modern text, which Sandru had added later. They were all switches to control the giant pythons.

However, these switches could only be used after Han Huohuo had control of this main control room.

On the far left, there was a large green button.

This was the main control switch!

Han Huohuo pressed it down forcefully.

[New owner detected. Hold the soul crystal mine for twelve hours and eliminate the guardians to occupy the mine.]

Huh?

Guardians?

Do I have to fight a battle?

While Han Huohuo was still in doubt, new information arrived.

[Due to the long passage of time, the guardians are damaged. Congratulations on successfully clearing the level. This ancient soul crystal mine is now yours.]

Speechless!

Is this a joke?

Startling me like that, and it's an ancient mine, but even the guardians are incapacitated.

In the entire main control room, all the lights lit up. This control room now belonged to Han Huohuo. If others wanted to use it, they would have to kill Han Huohuo.

Han Huohuo first pressed the button to return the giant pythons to their positions.

[Warning: The giant pythons are not the initial setting of the mine. Gene detection failed. Cannot control, cannot control!]

Damn it!

Han Huohuo cursed. The giant pythons were a program Sandru had later embedded. Clearly, he couldn't control them. He must have had other methods, but now that he was gone, there was no way to know how to deal with it.

Do I have to fight the giant pythons to the end?

Frowning, he searched the main control console for a long time and found a button to cut off the energy.

This was a control switch that connected the old system and the new system.

The new system couldn't be controlled, but the old system could. Cutting off the connection between the two sides was not a problem.

Hmm!

This seemed to be the switch to cut off the connection between the Black Dragon's remains and the giant pythons.

Let's try!

Han Huohuo pressed it down.

[Warning: You have cut off the energy source for all giant pythons. The giant pythons will all self-destruct and die in half an hour. Are you sure you want to cut off the energy supply?]

Han Huohuo pressed it again fiercely.

Of course!

Am I going to keep these giant pythons for Chinese New Year?

The river water churned with a rumbling sound. All the giant python nests simultaneously cut off their connection with the underground Black Dragon remains.

All the giant pythons were rolling up and down in the river water, seemingly in extreme pain. The surging river water was like giant waves in the ocean.

Hua Mulan was dumbfounded, not knowing what her Boss had done again. Could it be that he had really found the master of these giant pythons and was fighting? She suddenly became worried.

Before long, these giant pythons began to explode one after another.

It was like one small nuclear bomb after another, too terrifying.

The explosions first heated the river water to boiling, and then the terrifying explosive force lifted the river water into the air, turning it into a torrential downpour that continued without end.

On both banks of the Tongtian River, it rained heavily for three days and three nights!

Han Huohuo fumbled with the main control console and finally figured out its basic operation.

This mine used the energy of the Black Dragon to collect the soul crystals of the White Dragon.

It was truly bizarre.

I just don't know what these soul crystals are used for.

Sandru's dream was to use these crystals to recast his crystal, but Han Huohuo thought this was a dead end.

Moreover, he was still far from being a Five-Rotation Hero, and it wasn't yet time for his crystal to start decaying.

Most importantly.

Han Huohuo had never thought about living forever.

Living like Sandru, it would be better to die early and be reborn. Why be so greedy as a person?

He ransacked Sandru's treasure vault.

He found a treasure.

[Frost Boots]: Movement speed +1, all basic attributes increased by two points.

These boots are good. He threw away the leather boots on his feet and put on these combat boots. He felt like his weight was halved, and his movements instantly became agile.

Good stuff!

This mine also needed some iron ingots to maintain, as maintenance and repair of equipment all required iron ingots.

No wonder Sandru's puppet in the tavern asked him for iron ingots the moment he opened his mouth. So that's what it was all about.

“Lord, there is also a blueprint here!”

Han Xin found another blueprint in a corner.

[Large Arch Bridge]: Can build a large arch bridge spanning both banks. The arch opening can accommodate warships up to twenty meters high.

[Construction]: 100,000 wood, 100,000 stone, 20,000 iron ingots, 5 abyss crystals, 5 radiant gems, 5 fire sea sulfur, 5 ice field mercury.

Twenty meters?

This height, even an aircraft carrier could pass through! Is there really such a large warship in this world? It's unlikely, right?

The cost is a bit high, but with a bridge connecting both banks, the mines and plains on this side can also be utilized.

Absolutely worth it!

Perhaps this was originally prepared by Sandru. He seemed to intend to build a bridge here, but he never did. I don't know what he was thinking at the time.

Now this blueprint belongs to Han.

Seeing that there was nothing else, Han Huohuo and Han Xin came out of the cave.

It was pouring rain in the sky.

The two of them rode Griffons and returned to Tongtian City in the heavy rain.

All the giant pythons self-destructed, not even a single hair was dropped. They just caused huge waves, and the Tongtian River was like boiling water.

It was like the end of the world.

It was too scary.

Hua Mulan was waiting for Han Huohuo on the opposite bank. Seeing the two of them return safely, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“The rain is too heavy, want to come to my place and sit for a bit?”

“No!”

“No!”

Both Heroes refused at the same time.

Hua Mulan was almost dead tired and needed to go back to sleep. Han Xin's arm was still broken, and he needed to find a doctor.
