Chapter 29 Purple Quality Star Stone
The ore piles are tall, short, big, and small.
Their overall shapes are also different. Some are round, some are spire-shaped, and some are long and narrow. In short, there are all kinds of shapes.
From the outside, they look like piles of dirt or large rocks of strange shapes.
Although most of them protrude from the ground, they blend perfectly with the surrounding environment and do not appear particularly abrupt.
However, ordinary stones, soil piles and ore piles are still easy to distinguish.
As long as a pile of soil or stone contains minerals, it will emit a faint light.
The light is grayish white, light green, blue, and purple.
To put it simply, the quality of the ore will emit a faint light of a certain color.
These lights are not strong, but they can definitely be seen if you observe carefully.
As for ordinary stones and earth piles, no light would be emitted.
Wang Lang walked to a stone pillar about three meters high with vines and grass growing on it.
He pulled aside the vines and grass to take a look at the ore, and at one glance he was sure that it was a pile of iron ore.
After confirming this, Wang Lang stopped wasting time and swung the sledgehammer in his hand, hitting the pillar-shaped iron ore pile hard.
Although this stone pillar-shaped pile of iron ore is three meters high, its width, or the area it occupies, is not very large. It looks like it is only about one and a half meters square.
This pile of iron ore looks like a stone pillar eroded by wind and sand.
Wang Lang is very strong, and the green-quality metal sledgehammer is also very powerful.
In just three or five strokes, the stone pillar-shaped pile of iron ore collapsed completely.
Hiding in the distance and waiting for the dust to dissipate, Wang Lang walked directly to the iron ore scattered on the ground, touched them one by one and put them into the space of Shennong Ding.
At this time, Wang Lang was not in a hurry to communicate with the Shennong Ding to decompose the iron ore.
He would wait until he got some ore before breaking it down.
By that time, more copper, iron, silver and other metals can be decomposed.
It was at that time that Wang Lang only needed a thought, and the decomposed copper, iron, silver and other metals could form any shape he wanted.
He just wanted to use these metals to directly form the shapes of weapons, and there was no problem with that.
But they are only similar in shape. In essence, they are just metal raw materials and not real weapons.
But this is enough.
Wang Lang planned to get more metal raw materials and fuse them together to form a huge metal hammer.
Wang Lang intends to give this huge raw metal hammer to the mythical beast, the ape.
Although it is not as hard as properly refined weapons, it is large enough and heavy enough.
If the mythical beast abacus uses it, it can definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort when digging ore piles.
In any case, it is definitely better than smashing the mine with its fists.
To be honest, Wang Lang wanted to refine a weapon hammer for the mythical beast abacus.
However, the handle of the sledgehammer made from the bronze Shennong Ding was too thin, not even as thick as the fingers of the mythical beast abacus, so it could not be used at all.
There is no other way but to use the method of fusing and combining metal raw materials.
After knocking down and excavating two ore piles, and collecting all the ore from several ore piles knocked down by the mythical beast ape, Wang Lang made a huge metal hammer.
The total length of this metal hammer reaches two meters and three meters, and the total weight is about five hundred kilograms.
The thickness of the hammer handle is about the same as the beauty's waist.
The sledgehammer is very large and spherical in shape, with a diameter of about one meter, and looks very intimidating overall.
The divine beast abacus was very excited to get the sledgehammer, and immediately started to work.
At this time, the mythical beast abacus smashed the ore pile, and the efficiency of mining ore increased sharply.
With just three or two hammer strikes, most of the ore pile can be cleared away.
After helping the mythical beast ape to improve its efficiency, Wang Lang was not idle either.
He wandered around, looking for piles of higher quality ore.
Wang Lang knew that his physique and strength were far inferior to those of the mythical beast, the ape.
Therefore, at this time, I can't just smash the pile of ore like it did.
If that were the case, I would probably be out of strength after knocking down and digging three or five piles of ore.
So he decided to be lazy and dig up the higher quality ore piles himself, and leave the rest to the mythical beast, the ape.
Wang Lang walked along the gentle slope and climbed directly up the mountain.
After climbing about 150 to 160 meters, he came to a tongue-shaped stone slab that looked like it was sticking out of the mountain.
This tongue-shaped stone slab is very long, stretching straight out for more than ten meters. It is about three meters wide and at least one meter thick.
The front of the slab was covered with grass, while the dark area on the back was covered with moss.
"This is really weird!"
While muttering, Wang Lang swung the sledgehammer in his hand and smashed it straight at the place where the stone slab and the mountain touched each other.
This slate glows a lavender light and is a purple quality ore pile.
To be honest, Wang Lang was already a little impatient.
He wanted to see what kind of purple ore raw materials he could get after decomposing the purple-quality ore, and how much he could get?
The stone slab was extremely hard, and Wang Lang had to smash it with twenty or thirty hammers before he was able to break it.
After the stone slab broke, it slid directly down the mountain.
As the stone slab slid down, it happened to knock down two large piles of ore.
This is a pleasant surprise.
At this time, Wang Lang looked down at the fracture between the stone slab and the mountain.
"There must be some purple quality ore inside. What a pity. The conditions and time are limited now, so I can only give up for now."
While muttering to himself, Wang Lang walked down the mountain.
Now Wang Lang only has a sledgehammer in his hand. It is convenient to use, but it is not convenient to use either.
This sledgehammer is fine for smashing ore, but it is almost useless if you want to use it to dig mountains.
But it's not completely impossible, it's just too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the overall investment and income are completely disproportionate.
So, there is no need to waste any effort at all.
At this time, the huge stone slab had stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Wang Lang touched the huge stone slab and directly put it into the space of Shennong Ding.
Then, he couldn't wait to break down the huge stone slab.
After decomposing it, I did get purple quality ore. But it was a pity that for such a large slab, I only got three star stones.
The three star stones together only weigh about thirty pounds, which is really too little.
Wang Lang was very disappointed, but after thinking about it, he felt relieved.
"Well, forget it. This star stone is a purple-quality ore after all, which is considered very rare. It's already good to be able to get three pieces. If you really get dozens or hundreds of pieces at once, how can it be called a rare ore?"
While muttering to himself, Wang Lang started working again.
The ores in the two ore piles knocked down by the huge stone slab were scattered nearby, which was considered to be a hassle-free operation. It didn't take much time at all to collect them all into the Shennong Ding space.
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
The divine beast abacus roared loudly, and at the same time, the sound of bangs and collisions continued to be heard.
The mythical beast abacus really likes the metal hammer in his hand.
Although it could not figure out exactly what this metal hammer was, it knew that with this big iron hammer in its hand, its overall strength had increased a lot, and it would definitely be able to defeat those monsters that it could not defeat before.
After cleaning up the pile of ore that was knocked down by the huge stone slab, Wang Lang ran towards the mythical beast, the ape.
Now on the gentle slope and at the foot of the mountain there are piles of ore that were knocked down by the mythical beast apes, and the total number has exceeded forty or fifty.
At this time, the mythical beast abacus had already run quite far away.
Wang Lang planned to get closer to it.
One is to collect all the ores scattered on the ground into the space of Shennong Ding, and the other is for safety.
He knew clearly in his heart that he was now in the world of mountains and seas. There were dangers everywhere in the forest of strange beasts, so he must not be careless at all.
Although I have some strength now and have weapons that are quite handy, if a three hundred or five hundred year old beast appears, then I will still be finished.
Therefore, it is better to stay closer to the mythical beast, the abacus.
