Chapter 510 5K(2/3)
There is even a high probability of a sixth-level lion and skeleton knight.
At least a few hundred people were left at this garrison back then.
Excluding those who died in the terminal explosion, the number of those who endured other ordeals and became undead is somewhere between 60 and 100.
Because there are not only explosions in the final period, but all the resurrected lion skeleton knights have broken armors and their bones are covered with knife marks, which once again confirmed his previous thoughts.
That is, an era is made up of many tribulations, and the explosion is only the most obvious factor among them.
For the above reasons, Zong Shencai was so sure that there must be more undead in the depths of the ruins.
If his guess was wrong, then he would have no choice but to come up with another excuse.
Let's just say that those lion and skeleton knights may have run away on their own.
Anyway, Baron Bezos is not sure about the situation here.
After thinking of countermeasures, Zong Shen became calmer.
What he said makes sense.
The current exploration progress has only reached about 50%.
Barely half the progress has been completed.
Baron Bezos could only nod and place his hopes in places that have yet to be excavated.
…
Excavation work continued until the early hours of the morning.
To ensure safety and basic rest.
Baron Bezos ordered the excavation to stop and for the workers to return to the surface along the tunnel.
Zong Shen also put away two magic drilling machines.
He and Baron Bezos will take charge of the follow-up work with their respective soldiers.
Although there is no danger in the crypt, Baron Bezos cannot let everyone rest in the ruins, even if he arranges manpower to keep watch.
Once the Lion Skeleton Knight suddenly attacks, it will inevitably cause huge casualties.
Zong Shen naturally had no objection to this.
The eight or nine hours of excavation made the workers very tired.
The corresponding traveling speed is much slower.
It took more than an hour for everyone to return to the top of the mountain from the ruins.
At midnight, strong winds roared across the top of the mountain.
Because of the altitude, there are no trees blocking the cliffs on the top of the mountain.
The wind can drive straight in here and sweep across.
The simple tents built before became a resting place for workers and soldiers from the city.
It was blown whistling in the strong wind.
Fortunately, the baggage boxes were piled up under those support poles.
Baron Bezos's bed is also simple, but it is much better than others.
He made a bed out of four luggage boxes and covered it with several layers of soft furs.
This kind of bed is incomparable to a castle, but it is definitely better than sleeping on the floor.
Zong Shen and Veresa slept next to Yingjiang.
Yingjiang's more than ten-meter-long body turned around and lay on its side, its wings retracted, forming a small shelter.
Everyone just lay beside it.
Zong Shen was a little bolder and lay directly on its hind limbs.
It's like a lion's hind legs. Although it also has scales, it is much softer.
Just one night and let’s get there!
…
The next day, around seven o'clock in the morning.
Baron Bezos has already woken up.
Compared with Zong Shen, he cares more about the excavation progress of the ruins.
I wish I could dig up the entire ruins in one day.
Under his mobilization, all the workers and soldiers in the city also woke up.
The soldiers were doing well, but the workers were very tired.
Digging in the ground is not an easy job.
Their physiques are also inferior to those of the warriors.
I only had more than six hours of rest in one night, and I was still somewhat sleepy.
The top of the cliff is literally yawning.
Baron Bezos saw this situation and carried out temporary mobilization.
"Everyone, listen up."
"Work hard today and try to get everything done tonight."
"As an incentive, as long as the excavation task is completed tonight, everyone will be paid a one-time salary of 20 dinars!"
"Including yesterday, that's 25 dinars. In addition, when you return tomorrow, wages will be paid at 5 dinars/day, so here it's already 30 dinars!"
He decided to use wages as an incentive.
You can earn 30 dinars in two or three days, which is equivalent to nearly a month's income for these workers.
It is equivalent to one and a half months' salary of a handyman maid.
When Zong Shen came to Bospan before, seven or eight people had a meal for less than 10 dinars.
From this we can see the significance of this money to ordinary Aboriginal people.
This trick worked really well, and the workers suddenly became energetic.
Everyone held their shovels high and cheered.
"Long live Mr. Bezos!"
"Long live Mr. Bezos!"
"Long live!"
…
The cheers woke Zong Shen up.
Vereesa and the others had woken up long ago, but they did not take the initiative to call Zong Shen.
Normally, six hours of sleep is more than enough for him.
I'm a little bit sleepy today.
After stretching, Zong Shen touched his face and rubbed his eyes and soon woke up.
"Why are they so excited?"
Listening to the cheers, Zong Shen turned his head and asked with some doubts.
Alsia on the side is holding the staff with a smile on her face.
He relayed the cause and effect of the incident to Zong Shen.
"It turns out the salary is increased."
"I thought something was wrong."
"Vereesa, distribute food to everyone."
Zong Shen nodded and gave instructions to Vereesa.
During this time of exploration, supplies and food were placed in Vereesa's storage compartment.
It is also distributed by her.
The food is very simple, a piece of hard bread and a piece of dried meat per person.
Everyone has a water bag ready.
This is their breakfast.
Even Zong Shen is no exception. He basically eats and lives with everyone.
Only occasionally would I open a small stove in the lord's small building.
