Chapter 639: City Construction (10)
She could eventually conquer the entire eastern area of the Forsaken Land!
She wanted to leave her mark in every single city around there!
With the entire eastern area of the Forsaken Land in her hands, who would dare to go against her?
After they covertly activated the underground array, the humans in the city did not notice any difference. However, the demons sensed a dark force that spread from underneath their legs. The tempting scent made them feel as if they were in heaven.
“What’s going on?” Yao Ji sensed the dense dark element diffused in the air, and he continued to take large gulps of air.
“Oh! It must be the work of the great city lord. I will never leave Sun Never Sets!” Jia Lan and Jia He frantically devoured the dark elements as the surging fragrant scent made them float in happiness!
The demons in the Sun Never Sets would no longer lack food. Since they had the dark element, the demons there would not need to attack humans.
On the other hand, Jiu Shu and the villages had kept up with the land’s reclamation and cultivation. A large area of the wasteland had been reclaimed, and they only lacked a water source. With the three mythical beasts’ joint efforts, they had managed to build a well that was about a hundred meter deep.
Those developments might not have yielded any results in the starting phase. However, it would determine the prosperity of the city in the future.
Su He continued to search for new mines in the eastern area, and after several days of effort, he had successfully excavated five new mines.
The next morning, Su He reported the five locations to Shen Yanxiao.
“Two of the mines might have extremely rare metals in it. Once these metals are extracted, they can be used to craft weapons that are comparatively sharper than other weapons,” Su He reported in detail.
Shen Yanxiao cocked her head. That was good news as they would need the weapons for their armed forces.
“Su He, assemble two teams to go to the mines that you’ve discovered, and they can get a head start on that. The city walls are almost completed, and we should have all the obsidians we need. You can allocate more people to mine those rare metals. After we are done with the walls, we would move to build our city’s interior next. ”
“I understand.” Su He had become the mining team leader, and Shen Yanxiao believed that he would not betray her.
“Brother Su, please take care while you’re there.” Yin Jiuchen held her hands together as if she was in a portrait. There was also a gentle smile on her face.
“Always.” Su He smiled. He was at ease because Yin Jiuchen was with Shen Yanxiao.
After Su He and his subordinates ate their breakfast, they set off once again.
They had left the city as per norm, and no one expected that their day would be anything different than usual.
When the mining team did not return in the afternoon, Shen Yanxiao started to feel uneasy. She kept looking at the city gates.
“They have not returned yet?” Du Lang had finished with his work, and he had gone to Shen Yanxiao’s side. The mining team would usually return to the city in the afternoon to transport the excavated ores. However, none of them had returned.
Devil? Shen Yanxiao frowned.
“Not yet.” Shen Yanxiao furrowed her brows.
“Calm down. Didn’t Su He mention that he would dispatch several teams to mine a new vein? Perhaps they have all been transferred.” Du Lang tried to keep her.
