Login Before Others: Stone Age

112 Occupation
Once Zelda finished listening to Su Ming’s story, she frowned and fell into deep thought for a while before she raised her head again.

“Lord Prophet, I think it’s completely possible. But how many soldiers do we have to bring?

“To put it bluntly, we’re not sure how many resources there are in the mine and how many soldiers are needed to guard it.

“The construction of our town is in the middle stage,” Zelda continued after a pause. “We need manpower now.

“Moreover, the most important thing is that we still don’t know what the other Elf tribe thinks of us.

“If they suddenly attack, we’ll be in a very passive position since we’re not on guard.

When Zelda said this, she looked a little worried, and her eyes flashed with worry.

When Su Ming heard that, he thought about it for a moment before he said, “Let’s go first and bring about a hundred people with us. 50 Elven hunters and 50 Elven archers.”

“These people would not affect the deployment in the Elf Valley. At the same time, they’ll be enough for us to occupy the mine.

“If we don’t have enough people by then, we’ll just call for more people once the portal is built,” Su Ming said after some thought.

Zelda’s furrowed brows eased a little when she heard that. She then said, “I understand, Great Prophet.

“Then please do your best and help our tribe find a ray of light.”

The moment Zelda finished speaking, a notification lit up before Su Ming.

[New quest: Occupy the Mine]

[Mission description: For the better development of the Elf Valley, you must lead your tribe and successfully occupy the resource-rich mine.]

[Mission reward: Experience +90000, blazing shoulder armor]

Once Su Ming accepted the mission, he chatted with Zelda for a while more before leaving her room.

Once he left Zelda’s room, Su Ming went straight to the fortress at the entrance of the valley and found the Elf Warriors.

Not all of the Elven Warriors had participated in the construction of the town.

After all, if he invested all of his troops into the town’s construction, there would definitely be problems in other aspects, such as the defense of the Elf Valley.

Neither Su Ming nor Zelda would make such a low-level mistake.

50 Elven archers and 50 Elven hunters were selected from the Elven warriors.

Su Ming brought them straight to the town.

By the time they reached the town, Dishan had already gathered his helpers and the space magnetic stones.

After watching Dishan finish building the teleportation gate in the town square, the group of more than a hundred people headed directly in the direction of the steel mine.

Once the number of people increased, even if they were travelling at the speed of an Army, they would still be much slower than when Su Ming was travelling alone.

The Turtle looked at the army, which was moving at an extremely slow speed, and a touch of dissatisfaction flashed in its eyes.

However, it did not say much. Instead, it flew directly to Mike’s shoulder and dozed off.

After marching for about half a day, the group finally arrived at the steel mine.

Once they arrived at the steel mine, Su Ming first had Benben to check out the situation around the area.

Then, he led the large group and headed in the direction of the steel mine.

The moment he entered the steel mine and caught sight of the mountain-like iron ores, Dishan had become slightly excited.

“Great Prophet, is this the resource-rich steel mine you mentioned?”

When Su Ming heard that, he nodded and said, “Not only here, there’s a Steel Valley not far from here.

“All the steel we used before was taken from that Valley.”

As soon as he said that, Dishan became even more excited.

Su Ming looked at his reaction. After some thought, he decided to leave half of his men here and bring Dishan to the Steel Valley.

After arriving at the Steel Valley and seeing the situation clearly, Dishan was overjoyed.

When Su Ming saw his reaction, a faint hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

To a Dwarf like Dishan, this was probably the only situation that could make them so excited.

After that, Dishan led the Dwarves he brought over and started building the teleportation gate.

Su Ming did not participate too much in this.

With Dishan’s ability, he could naturally find the most suitable construction site.

After that, Su Ming walked out of the Steel Valley and was prepared to take a stroll outside.

Once the teleportation gate in Steel Valley was built, he could take the teleportation gate back.

It was quite convenient.

However, the moment Su Ming walked out of the Steel Valley, the Turtle suddenly flew over from midair and landed in his arms.

Then, the Turtle raised its head from his arms and started to gesture something.

“Ya ya ya!”

There were a few people over there!

Su Ming immediately understood what it meant. He quirked his eyebrows and lifted his head to look at Mike in the air.

Mike also quickly landed on the ground and said in a low voice, “Great Prophet, a group of people is coming from the north. There are about seven or eight of them. it should be a small team.”

“Oh,” Su Ming replied, then asked, “are they Elves?”

Mike heard this and shook his head. “It’s a human.”

Su Ming was momentarily stunned, then his expression turned slightly grave.

Then, he spoke to the Elven warriors guarding the Steel Valley and turned to head in the direction Mike had told him.

To the North of the mine was a rugged place where shrubs and forests intertwined.

There were not many paths, only a few, and they were all small paths.

Once Su Ming followed Mike over, he waited for a while in a forest and saw a group of people walking toward them.

When he saw the group of people, Su Ming immediately narrowed his eyes.

Just as Mike had said, this pair of centaurs were a group of humans.

However, what caught Su Ming’s attention was not their identity as humans, but their clothes.

These people were all wearing standard leather armor of the same style.

From a distance, Su Ming could tell that the craftsmanship was pretty good.

This also proved that the forces behind them were quite powerful!
