After figuring out the key, Luo Yu simply chose to upgrade [Animal Tamer] from 2 stars to 3 stars.
[You spend 300,000 silver to upgrade your personal characteristics]
[Animal Tamer 3 Stars: The upper limit of owned grade animals is increased to 15, and the output of all animals owned is 30%]
Looking at the personal attributes, this 3-star beast tamer is actually not very strong. What is strong is the evolved version of the beast tamer's characteristic: Beastmaster.
The beast king trait can increase the overall combat power of animals, which is outrageous!
After the Beast King, there is also the Beast God, which is even more outrageous and has been upgraded to the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
After a huge sum of money was spent, there was still 310,000 silver left, plus what the base had saved before, a total of 36.50,000.
Next, according to the previous plan, first build the floor tiles outside the wall, then lay the floor thorns, and then build various buildings.
For example, the workshop is about to be built, and the prison needs to be strengthened. Just now, the system warned that there is a high chance of going on a rampage. Luo Yu was so scared that he sold all the prisoners on the spot. He originally planned to let them work for a few days, including cleaning...
By the way, if there are not enough rocks now, then go dig them!
Luo Yu went directly to the mine. After being blessed with various things, the resource limit of the mine was increased. The current upper limit reached 134%, and he could still dig well for a while.
Thinking that he hadn't used critical strikes to mine for a long time, Luo Yu thought silently in his mind, and then dug in with a pickaxe.
[Triggered by a hundred times critical hit]
"Boom."
A piece of white metal the size of a human face rolled out. The Scorpion King next to him was about to grab it and eat it. Luo Yu quickly kicked the Scorpion King away and picked up the piece of metal to take a look.
【Platinum*1000】
This is a piece of platinum!
No wonder the Scorpion King is so eager to eat it, it is gold level, and eating platinum seems to have the slightest chance of evolving to platinum level.
Platinum, a metal like diamond, is a luxury product, and gold-level equipment can be upgraded through forging.
Other equipment does not need to be upgraded, but the lord bracelet on Luo Yu’s hand is no joke, it can be upgraded after a wave of upgrades.
Unfortunately, upgrading gold-level equipment requires a forging level of lv15 or above. Even small gold is only lv13, and requires an advanced forging platform.
The base currently has a primary forging platform, which still needs to be upgraded.
Speaking of which, he has not unlocked the forging technology at all...
Just leave it and we'll talk about it later.
Luo Yu put the platinum into the bracelet and turned on the mining mode for the first time in a long time.
The Golden Scorpion King beside him also seemed to be inspired. One person and one scorpion dug quickly, and various mineral resources continued to roll out.
【Iron Ore*15】
【Iron Ore*20】
【Iron Ore*8】
【Copper Ore*6】
【Black Spot Stone*1】
…
Luo Yu discovered a problem. Unknowingly, his mining level reached level 7. With the personal characteristics of [Miner], what he dug out was either iron ore or copper. On the contrary, there were fewer rocks.
The Scorpion King around him also had this problem. In other words, although the wealth of mining increased, the output of the most basic stone blocks for base construction was not enough.
"That's a problem."
If there is a problem, it must be solved. There is no way to escape.
Luo Yu stopped digging, rubbed his chin and started thinking.
The easiest way to increase rock output is to let insects with low mining levels dig there. What is dug out are basically stones, but the total resources of the vein will still be consumed.
If you dig more stones, there will be less other resources; if you dig more other resources, you will have fewer stones.
From the perspective of income, iron ore, copper ore, and silver mines must have high income.
After Luo Yu thought about it for a while, he decided that it was serious business to get rocks in places other than mines.
I flipped through the system interface and flipped through it, and finally found a solution.
[Quarry: It can continuously produce all kinds of stones without consuming mineral vein resources, but it is difficult to collect stones and there are various unknown risks]
Although this building has many limitations, it can initially solve the dilemma of fewer and fewer stones. We will wait until the core diamond technology is available in the future.
The aesthetics of the quarry will be greatly reduced, and it certainly cannot be built in the base, just next to the mine.
This building does not require basic construction materials. It can be built directly with silver. 5w silver is still a bit expensive, but don’t worry, you are rich!
After Luo Yu clicked OK, a small hill appeared on the other side of the mine, which was even uglier than the ugly mine next to it.
After entering the inside of the small mountain bag from the cave, I found that it was pitch black inside, but it was actually hollow, with pillars supporting the quarry.
There is a square hole on the ground. This hole is the quarrying site. You can just dig it.
Luo Yu tried it and swung the pickaxe, but even with his mining level, the efficiency was still very slow. It took ten minutes to dig out a piece of black stone.
This is when he has the global working speed attribute of 100%. If it were someone else, half an hour would cost him as much as a stone.
"The efficiency is so low, and the environment is so bad."
Luo Yu muttered to himself, and suddenly a prompt came: [Warning, due to the vibration caused by the excavation, part of the structure on the top of the quarry fell off]
After seeing the prompt, Luo Yu hurriedly ran out of the cave. Sure enough, more than a dozen stones fell with a clatter. If he was unlucky, he would be hit.
"Is this an unknown risk?"
Luo Yu rolled his eyes, he was trying to kill someone!
He made up his mind that as long as normal people or animals were not allowed to enter the quarry, he would let the insects dig it.
At the command, 11 burrowing insects entered the quarry from the mine and started digging slowly.
Luo Yu estimated the speed. A bug can dig out a stone in about an hour. Calculated by working 15 hours a day, it can earn 165 pieces of black stone in a day.
These are not included in the consumption of mineral veins.
According to Xiao Jin's stone-cutting ability, one stone can cut 15 units of stone, and a total of 2,475 black stone bricks can be produced in one day.
If you think about it this way, it's not bad.
Of course, Luo Yu knew that all this was an ideal situation. Working in a quarry could lead to sudden death for no apparent reason.
Thinking of this, Luo Yu told the Golden Scorpion King beside him: "Don't eat all the bugs dug out in the mine, whether they are centipedes or groundworms! Catch them, you know? Let me tame them!"
"If you dare to eat again, I will fry you and eat it!"
The Golden Scorpion King felt threatened by his master and nodded repeatedly to express his understanding.
After nodding with satisfaction, Luo Yu stopped digging and returned to the big villa to cook.
Luo Yu had a great harvest today. He went to the arena to make some money in the evening. He hugged Xiaokong and fell asleep slowly.
