"I've gathered everyone here because I have something good to tell you!" Wizard Hogg moved his gaze away from Wizard Frank and said with a smile on his face.
"Good news? This is the happiest thing I've ever heard, other than mining! "Wizard Evans whispered to the wizard beside him.
Although his voice was soft, everyone here was an elite wizard. No matter how soft his voice was, it couldn't escape their ears.
"Wizard Evans, this good news is mining. It seems like you don't want to participate. You can stay and rest!" Wizard Hogg stared at him and lowered his voice.
"Captain, I don't mean anything else. It's just too boring here. I'm just thinking about how to spend this month!" Wizard Evans quickly said.
He knew Wizard Hogg was always joking around, but he would never joke about the team. If he said something good was going to happen, then something good was going to happen. How could he not participate in this kind of opportunity?
"Wizard Abel just came to me. He told me that his contracted beast Johnson is very sensitive to ores, so he wants to let Johnson mine and share the harvest with the team!" Wizard Hogg said with a smile.
"Wizard Abel, as long as you tell me the location, I'll tell my mining puppet to dig. I'm sure we'll be able to dig out a lot of gems!" Wizard Frank yelled in excitement.
However, compared to his excitement, the other wizards were a lot calmer. The income of elite wizards here was very high. Even if they put in all their effort in mining for a month, the amount of gemstones they mined would be distributed by the team. Each wizard wouldn't get a lot of gemstones.
However, the way Abel handled things was very much liked by the wizards in the team. A teammate who didn't care about every little thing, and a teammate who was loyal to the team, was more trustworthy in a battle of life and death.
The reason why Wizard Hogg accepted this mission that was not dangerous and would take a lot of time was to let Abel fit in with the team. At the same time, the team members would accept Abel faster.
This would also make it easier for everyone to leave their backs to their teammates when they took on high-intensity combat missions in the future. They would also be able to cooperate better in completing missions.
For Team 3, completing the challenge only added one more member to the team. However, it would take some time for all the members to truly accept this new member. Trust between Magi was not easy to cultivate.
"Everyone, let's see how Wizard Abel mines. If he needs any help, let's do it together! Everyone knows Wizard Abel is a Grandmaster Blacksmith. He's very good with all kinds of ores! " Wizard Hogg lowered his voice and gazed at Wizard Frank. He had a bad feeling about Wizard Frank's decision to bring those puppets.
It wasn't that he couldn't bring a mining puppet, but he knew how big Wizard Frank's portal bag was. It was 2 cubic meters. If he brought a mining puppet with him, he couldn't bring any more supplies. If a fight broke out, his fighting ability would be greatly reduced.
However, Wizard Hogg didn't say it out loud. He had already scolded Abel. If he continued, it would be counterproductive. It was better to talk to him later.
"Wizard Abel, you can start now!" Wizard Hogg nodded to Abel.
"Yes, captain!" Abel replied. He pressed his hand on his chest, and a hole appeared. Johnson's giant body walked out from the hole.
"Johnson, find me a mana gem mine and gather all of them!" Abel said to Johnson through the soul chain.
Johnson bowed like a human. Its senses had already penetrated the ground and entered the ground.
"Wizard Abel, why hasn't this big guy done anything yet?" Wizard Lamo, who was quite close with Abel, walked up to Abel and asked.
As Wizard Lamo was about to ask, the rocks on the ground began to move. Afterward, a white beginner mana gem slowly emerged from the ground.
"This …" Wizard Lamo pointed at the gem in shock. He had seen beginner mana gems before, but it was his first time seeing one like this.
He turned to look at Qiangsen with a burning gaze. He already knew how good Qiangsen was when it came to ores.
"Haha, good job Johnson!" As the second gem appeared, the wizards on the spot began to laugh and praise Johnson.
At first, it was just one gem appearing every once in a while. They were all beginner gems, but after a while, more and more gems began to appear. Their grades had also changed from beginner to intermediate.
There were already more than 100 gems on the ground, and the number was still increasing.
Johnson's ability to sense ores was like a human's ability to move or breathe. It didn't require much energy.
After a few minutes, there were more than 300 gems on the ground, and it was increasing at a faster speed.
When the first top-level gem appeared on the ground, even Wizard Hogg couldn't help but stare at Johnson in shock. Although there was no city circle in the Land of Thunder Fall, it didn't mean top-level gems weren't needed.
Although there were countless mana gathering circles supporting the operation of all the magic circles in the huge underground space, as long as it was a large magic circle, it would require top-level gemstones to maintain.
Therefore, the Lightning clan had to use a lot of top-level gems. Also, top-level gems were the currency used to exchange for some super items. They were far more valuable than normal gems. No matter which organization it was, top-level gems were very important to them.
Abel looked at the gems on the ground. He didn't feel anything. If he wanted gems, he could take out countless gems at any time.
In his Valaya's ring, there were mountains of gems, which were also perfect gems. He had prepared these gems since he was in the Holy Continent.
He was the emperor of the Holy Continent. No matter how much he collected gems, no one would notice. Also, the Kingdom of Saint Ellis had a lot of gems mines, and the gems they produced were all given to the kingdom.
Those useless gems could only be used as decorations. But after he became the emperor, he collected all of them, and the price of decorations in the Holy Continent skyrocketed.
What Abel was paying attention to was the type of gemstone. The gemstone he dug out from this gemstone mine was called diamond. It could increase the elemental resistance of equipment, but its production rate was not high. Diamond had always been the most expensive gemstone among all gemstones.
For wizards, these gems were the best gems. They could replace fire gems, ice gems, and lightning gems to drive some targeted elemental magic circles.
For example, if a large circle was a fire elemental circle, it would need a fire elemental gem to power it. Other gems might cause elemental conflicts, but this kind of gem could be used as a perfect replacement.
Abel knew why the Holy Knight needed these gems. The energy in these gems was light energy, which was the opposite of the death qi in those skull gems.
"We're rich! We're rich!" Wizard Evans laughed out loud and turned to WIzard Hogg, "Captain, can we accept more missions to guard gems from now on? With Johnson, all those gems will be ours!"
"Keep your mouth shut, Wizard Evans, and the rest of you. No one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened today. Wizard Abel has shown us such an important ability, which means he trusts us. I hope you don't betray his trust!" Wizard Hogg gazed at Wizard Evans and lowered his voice to the wizards on the spot.
"Captain, I know. We can't tell anyone about this ability!" Wizard Evans nodded.
At first, the elite wizards in the team were not that interested in the gems. But as more and more gems appeared, and the quality got better and better. Not to mention, top-level gems appeared from time to time, so a smile emerged on everyone's face.
After 2 hours, Johnson changed his position a few times, and there were a few piles of magic stones on the ground like a small hill.
When Johnson straightened its body and walked in front of Abel and bowed, all of the wizards knew the gems mining was over.
Abel put Johnson back into his monster ring and did not say anything else. According to what he said at the beginning, all of the gems would belong to the team.
"Lamo, what do you think? Should we distribute these gems now or bring them back?" Wizard Hogg looked at the gems in front of him and asked his vice-captain, Wizard Lamo.
"Captain, let's just divide them up. It's going to be a bit troublesome if we want to put all of them in our portal bags!" Wizard Lamo said. He was starting to feel a bit of a headache when he saw the number of gems in front of him.
"Wizard Abel, you're the one who mined these gems. What do you think?" Wizard Hogg didn't expect there to be so many gems. It was enough to make any wizard go crazy. He had to consider the attitude of Abel, the owner of the gems.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone in the team could trust each other with their lives, a normal adventure team would have already started fighting for these gems.
Wizard Hogg didn't know how many gems there were in a large gems mine before, but he finally knew today.
There were close to 50,000 beginner gems, 10,000 intermediate gems, and 112 top-level gems. The number of beginner gems was because most of them were just beginner gems.
Abel was different from the other wizards. He knew there shouldn't be only these gems in a large gems mine. It seemed like the mining before was very violent. At least half of the gems had been mined.
This was why the Wizard Union abandoned this large gems mine. They knew the cost of mining was too high, and the rest of the gems would be even more difficult to mine.
"Captain, let's distribute them equally!" Abel's gaze was very calm as he said casually.
Abel's words shocked all of the wizards in the team. How could he be so calm under the temptation of so much wealth? This was not a small amount of wealth. It was more than the wealth of a few rank 20 wizards combined.
"Wizard Abel, are you sure?" Wizard Hogg asked again with a serious tone.
"Captain, I'm sure. I'm a Grandmaster Blacksmith. It's easy for me to make money!" Abel replied with a smile.
"Alright, since Wizard Abel has said so, Wizard Lamo will be the one to distribute the gems!" Wizard Hogg nodded and continued, "If you want to exchange top-level gems for resources, please choose your own organization first. Top-level gems are very important to us lightning clan!"
After distributing the gems, each elite wizard could get 10 top-level gems. This was the amount of gems they had accumulated over the years. Therefore, every wizard was full of smiles when they received their gems.
Even a wizard organization like the Blizzard clan only had 50 or so top-level gems. You could see how precious top-level gems were.
However, not all of the elite wizards were happy. Wizard Frank was one of them, and he was not very happy.
He was a little worried about the amount of gems he would get. If he brought too many gems with him, he would have to throw away his mining puppet. He spent a lot of money to buy that puppet.
"Wizard Dave, can you put away my mining puppet for me?" Wizard Frank turned to Wizard Dave, who was also a rank 17 wizard.
"Wizard Frank, my portal bag is not bigger than yours. You should ask the captain or vice-captain!" Wizard Dave waved his hand.
Wizard Frank shook his head helplessly. He didn't have the guts to look for the captain and vice-captain. He was late today, and he had heard about the mission in advance. He even brought his mining puppet here, so he was probably going to look for a scolding.
"Wizard Abel, do you have time now?" Wizard Frank turned to Abel and asked. He walked up to Abel and asked.
He knew every elite wizard that came to the Central Continent from a subcontinent was rich. Although the subcontinent did not have as many training resources as the Central Continent, there were still not many wizards there.
Every elite wizard that came to the Central Continent from a subcontinent was one of the best in the subcontinent. They had a lot of resources, so Abel's portal bag should be very big!
"Wizard Frank, what's the matter?" Asked Abel as he put away the gems he was given.
Although it was an equal distribution, he still got 2 more top-level gems. He also got more intermediate and beginner gems than the other wizards, but he didn't really care.
"Can you put away my mining puppet for me?" Wizard Frank asked. His voice was very quiet. It seemed like he was afraid Wizard Hogg would hear him.
