Chapter 1 Everyone's Eyes Light Up

Everyone's eyes lit up when Fire Dance mentioned the mineral vein.

Mineral veins are very rare in the God's Domain, not to mention in the Star-Moon Kingdom. Because the Star-Moon Kingdom is a kingdom with relatively balanced resources, there is no emphasis on herbs, ores, wood, food, etc., so mineral veins are even rarer.

Whenever one appears, there will be fierce competition.

"Mineral vein? What kind of mineral vein?" Shi Feng couldn't help but ask curiously.

He wasn't surprised that a mineral vein appeared in the Valley of the Flame Demon. After all, this was a mountainous area and a resource-rich forbidden area. Although mineral veins are generally very valuable, they are also divided into levels, such as bronze mineral veins and magic crystal mineral veins. The difference is like heaven and earth. Although bronze mineral veins are also attractive to ordinary large guilds.

But it is not very attractive to the current Zero Wing Guild.

Because this is a forbidden area.

The forbidden area is originally extremely dangerous, and the mining difficulty is even higher due to environmental factors. Even if a mineral vein appears in the forbidden area within the kingdom and empire, it is super difficult for super guilds to establish a mining field, let alone a forbidden area in a neutral map.

Under normal circumstances, super forces directly ignore the mineral veins in the forbidden area.

Because the return and investment are not proportional, or the return is too small, so they don't waste that time and manpower.

"Sourcefire mineral vein!" Fire Dance said excitedly.

As Fire Dance said this, everyone in the team couldn't help but gasp. In their opinion, it would be very good if a red gold mineral vein or a mithril mineral vein could appear.

But now, a Sourcefire mineral vein has actually appeared.

"Sourcefire?" Shi Feng couldn't help but be tempted when he heard this.

This is a genuine second-tier mineral vein, and it is different from other second-tier mineral veins. It belongs to a partial-attribute mineral vein, which is very rare among second-tier mineral veins.

Normal mineral veins have no attributes, just like ore, which also has no attributes. But once it has attributes, the price immediately doubles. For example, Cold Iron Stone is an ice-attribute ore. Weapons made from these ores will have ice-attribute damage, and the equipment made will have ice resistance.

Because of this, partial-attribute mineral veins are much more valuable. Even if it is only a third-tier partial-attribute mineral vein, it is the target of competition among first-rate guilds and even super forces, not to mention a second-tier partial-attribute mineral vein.

If the major super forces knew about it, they would probably take it down at all costs. Perhaps in terms of value, it is not as good as a first-tier mineral vein, but it is of great help to guild players in dungeon exploration and map exploration. Even if they have to pay a huge price, they will take it for themselves.

However, what surprised Shi Feng was that he had never heard of a partial-attribute mineral vein in the Valley of the Flame Demon in his previous life. Otherwise, it would have caused a frantic war among the major super forces, making it known throughout the God's Domain.

"Send me the coordinates, and we'll go there immediately."

Thinking of this, Shi Feng wanted to confirm it with his own eyes. If it was true, then their Zero Wing Guild would be rich whether they were making boats or weapons and equipment.

Immediately, Fire Dance sent her coordinates to Shi Feng, and Shi Feng personally led the team to Fire Dance's location with caution.

Fire Dance's location was a line of sky canyon surrounded by mountains and lava. The view was very good, and there was no black smoke. However, the terrain was very dangerous, and a large number of lava beasts lived there. Moreover, there was a huge level 80 legendary beast lying at the entrance and exit of the canyon.

Lava Demon Hound, elemental creature, Legendary, Level 80, HP 450 million.

Looking at the two-headed Lava Demon Hound lying at the entrance of the canyon, everyone felt a headache.

But in the canyon, they could clearly see the crimson mineral vein exposed outside the cave. This crimson crystal ore was the Sourcefire ore.

"It's actually true?!" Shi Feng looked at the Sourcefire ore exposed outside the cave, and his heart was very fiery.

Although the mineral vein that appeared was only a small mineral vein, it was indeed a Sourcefire mineral vein.

"It's such a pity! There are too many lava monsters around, and there is also a level 80 legendary lava creature guarding it. We have no way to deal with it at all." Aqua Rose looked at the Sourcefire mineral vein, feeling somewhat unwilling.

With their current strength, it might not be a problem to deal with level 60 wild legendary monsters, but level 80, and dealing with a lava creature in such a harsh environment, let alone their current level 50, even if they were level 80, they would probably have no way to deal with it.

Because this is a forbidden area, the monsters inside are generally much higher than the combat level outside. In addition, with such terrifying attributes, without level 90 or even level 100, there is no way to deal with the level 80 Lava Demon Hound in front of them.

Lava creatures are different from ordinary monsters. The closer you get to this kind of monster, the greater the impact on the player. They are constantly burned by the high temperature emitted by the lava monster. Even if they have high enough fire resistance to avoid the damage, the stinging pain will not disappear. This kind of pain will greatly affect the player's combat power.

But this is not the most terrible thing.

The corrosive nature of lava creatures on weapons and equipment is the most terrible. If the durability of the weapons and equipment is reduced to zero, it will be permanently lost.

Because of this, players avoid lava creatures as much as possible.

At present, the canyon is surrounded by lava creatures. Fighting is simply fatal. If they don't get the mineral vein, they may have to pay a large amount of weapons and equipment.

Moreover, establishing a mining stronghold is different from conquering monsters. During the period of establishing a stronghold, a large number of monsters will come to attack. If the stronghold is destroyed, the invested materials will be completely wasted.

Even if they take a step back, they can establish a stronghold, but the problem is that their Zero Wing Guild does not have enough manpower to guard it here. This is the core area of the Valley of the Flame Demon. The harsh environment here can easily kill the players who come here. They must have high enough fire resistance to survive.

They are wearing a set of fire resistance equipment and drinking master-level fire resistance potions to be able to move here. If they were other players, they would have died long ago.

The other people in the team also felt a pity and agreed with Aqua Rose's point of view.

The Sourcefire mineral vein in front of them is indeed very good, but it is an untouchable treasure that can only be viewed from a distance...

Shi Feng looked at the large number of lava creatures wandering around and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In the current God's Domain, not many people know the true value of partial-attribute mineral veins, but he is very clear, especially for the current Zero Wing Guild. A large number of fire-attribute ores can not only increase the overall combat power of the Zero Wing Guild, but also the ultra-rare byproduct Fire Source Crystal produced by the Sourcefire mineral vein.

That is not only the favorite of alchemists, but also one of the main materials for making his Sword Saint's exclusive epic set, Broken Steel.

"Lava creature?" After carefully observing the terrain and the movement of the lava monsters, Shi Feng pondered for a moment and slowly said, "It may be impossible to build a mining stronghold here, but it is not impossible to mine here."

"Guild Leader, can we really mine here?" Aqua Rose looked at Shi Feng, and a trace of fiery expectation ignited in her eyes.

Now fire resistance equipment and weapons are the main trend of future development for major guilds. If they can mine the Sourcefire mineral vein here, the development speed of the Zero Wing Guild can be greatly improved. As long as she has some time, the guild members will not have to move around Silverwing Town. They can completely move around other parts of the Orc Empire and compete with the Beast Emperor of the Evil God Temple in the Orc Empire.

They have long been fed up with the Evil God Temple.
