There are heavy traces of human interference.

After sorting out the current situation, Yaxiuen could only draw this conclusion.

Without enough clues, he couldn't guess the answer out of thin air.

If you want to know the answer, you need to find the origin of the source metal and know how to make the source metal.

The essence of the power of source metal is not difficult, it just fills it with vitality.

The most important question is that the characteristics of this source metal are quite unique. How is this source metal made?

If he could solve this mystery, his next actions would be much easier.

But where to start?

Noble? Prince of Gals?

Or the Church of the Earth?

To be honest, he originally just wanted to hide himself through Prince Gauls, but now...

Maybe Prince Gors can be his breakthrough on the issue of elementium metal?

I'll be picking it up at Gowers in a few days. I'll review my plan in the next few days.

However, before that, let’s first understand the matter of the mine rats.

How do these ore rats combine with elemental metal?

Could it be said that source metals are minerals produced underground?

...

Without hesitation, he briefly analyzed the samples of the mine rats, and after confirming that the blood and flesh of these mine rats were indeed fused with source metal, Ashun led several scarlet servants to the location where the mine rats were found.

The dark night and the crisscrossing branches and vines could not stop Ashun's footsteps at all.

After passing through a black coniferous tree, Ashun's vision reflected a black-green swamp.

There were many dead branches and leaves floating on the surface of the swamp, as well as the carcasses of many other animals. Ashun stopped and looked around.

There are several tall trees in the swamp...

The towering tree crowns stretched straight up into the sky, and the dense bushes and leaves completely blocked the starlight, leaving only a little bit of starlight.

Besides this, there is a cave.

This is an abandoned mine. According to the hunter, this mine was abandoned twenty years ago.

That's why they are called mine rats.

Then, he raised his right hand and covered it in front of his mouth, and high-frequency sound waves beyond the range of human hearing spread to the surroundings.

At the same time, the fingers of his left hand were split, and blood dripped from the fingers and onto the ground.

[Black Iron Blood Banquet Rat Flute: Calls the rats to gather, and gives the summoned rats additional blood-sucking and madness abilities. 】

After fusing the skill of calling the rats with himself, he gained the ability of the Blood Feast Rat Flute.

The words of ability and talent appeared on the parchment scroll in his mind, and they lit up when Ashun activated it.

squeak squeak

The "scent" emanating from the vitality-rich blood attracted a group of creatures to appear in the darkness in the corner.

It's a mine rat.

The little beast that was about to move in the darkness in the corner of the mine was a gray rat with only a hard tail and a body color like a rock.

After the group of mine rats reappeared, they rushed towards Ashun's position at extremely fast speeds, gathered at the edge of the blood beach at Ashun's feet, and began to greedily lick the blood.

As the blood licks into their bellies, the bodies and fur of these mine rats gradually turn bright red, and their pupils also turn bright red due to the strong vitality in the blood.

Ashun could clearly feel that their bodies originally contained huge power. After being strengthened by his blood, they already had powerful strength close to the black iron level.

Although these mine rats are combined with the source material black iron, the amount combined is not large, and their strength itself has not yet reached the black iron level.

Later, when Ashun tried to ask them to take him to the location of the source metal, the reaction of the group of mine rats disappointed him.

Although they possess a certain degree of strength, they do not possess very strong wisdom after all, and cannot even understand his words.

Ashun had no choice but to pass the message to the mine rats through spiritual connections.

.......

On the other side, the edge of the Gals collar.

Late at night, a group of thieves are preparing for action.

Like most thieves, they chose to operate at night.

Among the five people, a thief who was out looking at the silent street suddenly whispered:

"nobody."

Hearing his voice, several drunk men lying on the roadside opened their eyes at the same time.

"I have memorized the route they took. It will take them a while to come back, so hurry up!"

The outgoing thief paused and added:

"Can't fail!"

"Of course it won't fail!!!"

One of the thieves said excitedly:

"We have that thing!"

Although they are thieves now, they have survived "bloody battles" before.

In addition, more than ten days ago, they got a good thing from a seriously injured traveler.

With that thing, the bodies of the five of them are constantly getting stronger.

"Idiot, stop talking and move quickly." The outgoing thief cursed in a low voice.

"hey-hey."

The thief laughed and ran out with the other three.

Not long after, the three came back again.

They all have a few more things in their hands.

It was wrapped with a piece of cloth like a tablecloth, but they did not open the package directly. Instead, after confirming each other and calling the thief who was wandering in the other direction, they hurriedly took the package with them and left this place.

Shop.

Five black shadows, one behind the other, disappeared on the street under the dim starlight.

Whoosh whoosh!!!

In the middle of the night, at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, several black figures flew quickly into a civilian house.

They are not naive enough to check the stolen goods on the spot. The only possibility of doing so is if the value is too high and they need to split the money on the spot.

However, among the five people, the other four did not notice that one person's eyes flickered.

"Big money!"

He originally had no confidence in the team he was in now!

but!

but!

Who would have known that these guys actually killed a strong man for unknown reasons a few days ago and got a whole piece of black metal.

He was once the apprentice of a black sorcerer, but he didn't like his past life because...

To be precise, he is an experiment.

A dark sorcerer's experiment.

His body is extremely strong because of the evil experiment of the black magician.

He would join this group of thieves, really just to make a living at first.

But now, he is close to the black iron level, and even has four black iron level monster material items.

He recognized that piece of metal.

His mentor, the black magician who conducted human experiments on him, tried to create a magical potion that could make people become black iron-level warriors.
