Global Mining.

Chapter 706: The goddess pretending to be a succubus, the earth veins are exhausted
Da Chun was shocked: "You impersonated their superior?"

Little Liya said, "That's right, I can't just eat and drink all day without getting bored. I need to find something to do. Besides, I'm staying at Miss Ellen's mansion, which makes you all have to work on the farm. It's so inconvenient!"

Da Chun panicked: "No, no, it's not inconvenient!"

Ellen Khan said, "That was just our fun in the wild, Lady Lia, please don't overthink it!"

Little Lia snorted, "I know! But I've decided to go big. I'll take these seven little succubi with me and let them go back to Andariel's headquarters. If they happen to encounter the Nightmare of Oak City, these two demonic niches overlap a bit, so they could fight. If they fight, it might trigger a conflict between the Gem City succubi and the Oak City Nightmare, and that would be interesting."

Ah! That makes sense! But—

Da Chun still felt something was off: "Goddess, with this image of you impersonating Andariel, I just feel..."

Little Liya snorted, "Is it extravagance or waste?"

Da Chun laughed and said, "That's too extravagant!"

Little Liya laughed and said, "Only when they're treated with luxury will these chicks obey and submit!"

Eileen immediately made the arrangements, and with a wave of her hand, the crystal core of the ballroom lights was transmitted over: "Lady Nalia, please accept this!"

Little Liya swallowed the crystal core directly into her mouth: "Keep an eye on things outside!"

The moment the crystal core entered her body, Xiaoliya exuded a sinister aura, transforming into a dark loli!

But that's fine, because that way even less likely anyone will guess her true identity.

Then, Lia entered the room, and her alluring, almost demonic, goddess-like aura instantly silenced the noisy dance floor. The seven succubi also stopped in their tracks in shock. Even Da Chun was stunned; at that moment, she wasn't a child, but rather Lia exuded the noble and disdainful air of a city flower!

A dignified voice echoed throughout the ballroom: "The master has arrived! Why aren't you kneeling to greet him?"

The seven succubi immediately knelt on the stage: "Greetings, Master!"

Ah!! It's done just like that?

Little Liya was very satisfied: "You've made very rapid progress, but you still need to keep up the good work."

"Obey my master!"

Little Liya nodded, then leisurely went out: "How was it?"

Um, no...

Da Chun asked in surprise, "You only said two sentences?"

Little Liya laughed and said, "That's right, if we talk too much, they won't remember it. Once they grow a little more, I can teach them magic. Anyway, I'll stay here outside and observe them. You guys go ahead and do your work, collect more energy, and they'll grow faster."

Da Chun checked the vine's absorption progress and found it was almost complete.

"Alright, Ellen, I'll go back to work now."

Da Chun was very pleased that he could take some time to deal with two minor issues at home. Then he switched to his alternate account to take a look.

All I can say is, as expected of Maria, she's still going strong... She's a goddess, after all.

Then Dachun climbed up to the vines, and basically another kilometer-long yam was born. Moreover, a familiar "water column" appeared in front of it, which is the essence of life of the earth!

Although this section is not as large as the section that the Earth Mother Granny self-destructed, it is definitely a precious tonic for our divine realm! Therefore, we must be even more careful when disbanding and recycling it later.

However, when the progress bar gets stuck at 99.001%, the absorption process becomes extremely slow.

Da Chun was stunned. What? Could it be that the earth veins are about to be absorbed and disappear? No, I'm 99% about to break through! It's better if they disappear after I break through!
Is this depth still not enough?
Da Chun tried drilling downwards, and it was very easy; there was none of the strong resistance he had encountered before!
Holy crap! I crawled in with a "yam head" on my head, and it was this easy?
After descending ten meters, the decimal place suddenly jumped two places. Ah, I've got it! Then I won't bother anymore, lest I break the yam head and lose energy, which would be a huge loss.

But it was precisely this last 1% that took a full half hour to arrive! Finally:

System notification: Congratulations! Your vine form has reached 100% absorption of ley line energy and gained 15% Earth Life Essence. After disbanding and regenerating, your vines have become even more resilient, gaining the new skill "Resilient Rebirth." Your Intermediate Vine Technique has advanced to Advanced Level 1, earning you the achievement reward: Mana +10, Health +10…

—System notification: The earth's energy here is nearly depleted.

Wow, another special skill! My Vine Technique has leveled up 10 times again, great!
Huh? It's already dried up like that?!
Da Chun had mixed feelings; he felt both disappointed that the treasure wouldn't last, and also a sense of accomplishment at squeezing out every last drop of oil.

So, disbanding and recycling begin...

……

The game time is 4 AM.

Michael was urgently awakened by the butler: "Sir, the Fourth Prince has returned!"

Michael immediately logged in and arrived at the military port. Amidst the greetings of a group of military officials, the Fourth Prince staggered out of the cabin, with what appeared to be a stain of vomit on his chest.

Michael had been waiting impatiently for a long time: "Your Highness, you've finally returned! We've achieved a partial victory. Your Highness, immediately launch an attack and request permission from His Majesty to send troops—"

The fourth prince waved his hand: "I...I'll rest for a bit first!"

I knew he was terrified, having never seen anything like this before!

Fortunately, Michael was prepared and immediately addressed the officers: "We welcome the brave and fearless Fourth Prince who delivered the final fatal blow to the evil god!!"

The officers shouted with fervor, "Your Highness is valiant! Star of the Empire!"

Then he immediately escorted the fourth prince straight to the palace. Once he saw the emperor's avatar, he had no choice but to go.

"Butler, wake Uriel too!"

"Okay, sir."

Sila yawned: "The boss's here. Let's wake Sariel too. Gabriel made two major discoveries last night. I'm in Southern Canyon Village now, and I've made the same major discovery. Let me tell you about mine first..."

Michael was stunned after watching the video replay: "This dilapidated house is actually a divine artifact-level building?"

Sila said, "It's just said that there is divinity. Now I'm in the village chapel, and I've also examined the wood here, and it also has divinity."

Michael was puzzled: "This doesn't make sense. Even the oldest cathedrals in the church have wood and are more devout, so why don't they have this phenomenon?"

Metatron also came to his senses: "Indeed, I've been to two accessory villages in the countryside, and their churches are also a hundred years old, and they didn't have this problem?"

Sila thought for a moment: "But this Southern Canyon Village is special. It was built on the Magic Gold Meteorite. The wood used to build the village could only be sourced locally, so the composition of the materials is different."

Michael exclaimed in surprise, "That explanation makes sense, but could it be that this slum also has special minerals like magic gold?"

Sila laughed: "Why don't we just have Gabriel send people to explore the mine tomorrow?"

Sariel was forcibly awakened: "What's it to me?"

Xila laughed and said, "You've triggered the NPC's worship quest. Should you worship the Oak Guardian by default, or your little mermaid?"

Sariel replied without hesitation, "Of course it's my mermaid!"

Sila laughed: "Alright, I'll leave the trouble to you. Let's wait for Gabriel to come online..."
