Global Mining.

Chapter 886: Planting trees? Inducement of prison escape from the divine realm?

As the version upgrade progressed, Da Chun continuously injected mana and privilege points into the core gem of the magic circle. The gem's light gradually became cloudy and even dimmed, but it seemed as if a small galaxy was rotating and evaporating inside the gem.

It's good that it's dark; it's less likely to be noticed.

Da Chun is considered a master jeweler. Although he could tell at a glance that the mass-produced core gemstones that resembled glass beads were not high-end, he couldn't tell the grade of the gemstone that he had infused with energy and privilege value.

So, does that mean I can artificially create gemstones?

……

success!

As expected, the administrator got promoted, and he even learned how to build magic towers? Holy crap, I cracked this one so easily, and even the tower dogs that Yatnas said were obsolete wouldn't build it!
I at least have a territory called Evil Island, whose current state of development is unknown. This kind of magic tower with its simple structure and seemingly low-end materials is perfect for me!
In short, since we've been infected with the so-called version upgrade virus from Yatnas, all we need to do is wait for it to spread to the surrounding areas.

The vines of Da Chun began to quietly retreat.

Meanwhile, the little mountain god remained completely absorbed in studying the picture book and comparing it to the real object. Da Chun was starting to lose confidence in his judgment. Was he really here to cause trouble, studying so diligently? Or was he trying to do both at the same time?

Da Chun switched back to his main account and asked Yatnas, "How long will it take for the spread to complete?"

Yatnas: "When the battle is intense, the Shadow Magic Tower has a mechanism for coordinated attacks from all sides, which is the fastest way to spread the magic to everyone."

It turned out to be the case.

Now, to prevent me from attacking from the elemental realm, the opponent has shut down all the towers, which slows down the spread.

Da Chun glanced at the electric armor, which was still 99% intact, and decided not to wait any longer: "Earth Lotus, infiltration complete. We'll retreat and exit the elemental realm, then launch a frontal assault on the city and activate these magic towers!"

Di Lian asked in surprise, "Father, are you going to attack from outside the city?"

Uh... that's like being targeted by a concentrated attack!

Da Chun felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it: "The main thing is to make sure the other party is not in the elemental realm."

Di Lian said, "Actually, we can enter the city's sewers in our current state. This narrow environment will not be besieged or targeted by magic towers, but it can still cause chaos in the city."

Ah, that's right, crawling through sewers—that's the skill that made me rich!

I was definitely too stressed and tired, and I felt like my thinking had become too narrow-minded.

"Alright, let's leave the towers and dive into the sewers. Be careful."

"Okay father."

……

Internet cafe first floor.

When the network administrator relayed Chun Ge's instructions to Wei Shen, Wei Shen was completely bewildered: "Hey, are you sure you didn't send the wrong message?"

The young man said irritably, "How could Brother Chun's matter be misrepresented? Brother Chun knows that this matter is difficult to handle in Black Iron City, so he asked you to pass on the message to the NPCs in the Merchant Guild channel. The Merchant Guild Guardian, the Elder, and the four new NPCs are all in the city."

Wei Shen was both amused and exasperated: "Brother, you don't play games, yet you know so much about the people in our chamber of commerce?"

The young man scoffed, "Isn't that obvious? You've already learned it just by watching..."

Wei Shen had no choice but to get up and call out to the brothers in the internet cafe: "Brothers in the city..."

"Roger that!"

The Black Iron City's merchant channel erupted in an uproar: "Guardian, are you there? Do you know where I can get saplings?"

"Elder Seraphim, where are the saplings? Our leader wants us to plant trees..."

"Four young ladies from the Empire..."

But there was no response.

Wei Shen was also annoyed: "This is so bad. How can you talk to an NPC like this? Do you really think that intelligent NPCs are like telephone customer service who will answer every question? They're just automatically filtering out all the spam."

The brothers said irritably, "We don't have the authority, so our words are already filtered."

"Exactly, only NPCs will greet us. How can we possibly get them to respond? Besides, they're all praying, so it's normal for them not to respond."

Wei Shen was annoyed: "I need to find a way to trigger this! I didn't pray to the Guardian at the Broken Bottle Tavern, so I have to go to the village and ask. It seems there's a quest outside the village where a wild boar king has taken over the tea forest..."

……

Top Ten Chat Group.

Sila was already exhausted, and now, standing on the high platform presiding over the tedious ceremony, she was practically drowsy, but dared not sleep. This agony... she felt an urge to tear that bastard kneeling before her below the stage to shreds!
Just then, the Chamber of Commerce channel suddenly became lively: "Elder Sheila..."

Sila was surprised. If the other NPCs hadn't been silent, she would have almost replied in the merchant channel with "What's going on?", and then this NPC would have been exposed.

Xila immediately asked in the chat group, "Is Raziel there? Da Chun asked the merchant guild to plant trees! Is this a task issued to him by the God Realm Prison?"

Raziel was stunned: "Plant trees? Where to plant trees?"

Sila said irritably, "It's not convenient for me to reply in the Chamber of Commerce channel!"

Michael said, "Raziel, go to the prison and ask."

Raziel said irritably, "I am a sage, unlike you. I can't just go to prison whenever I want. Last time I used up my privileges by blowing up the whale, so I'm recovering slowly now."

Sila laughed and said, "Knowing that you are of the lowest rank, this is the time to see your skill level."

Raziel scoffed: "The NPCs in the divine realm are like robots. If I'm stuck, you'd better figure out a way."

Sila then asked, "Sariel, Raphael, when are you finally going to finish fighting? If this drags on for another day, I'll have to stand here praying all day?"

Sariel said in a deep voice, "This is the crucial moment, shut up!"

At this moment, Raziel once again went to the prison in the divine realm and asked the archangel in charge, directly using the privilege points he had just recovered: "Sir, have you issued a tree-planting task to the prisoner Dachun?"

The archangel paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Sage, if you are here to submit evidence and charges, we can proceed according to procedure."

Raziel was helpless and could only stand silently opposite him. Fortunately, his privilege did have some effect, as it made him pause for a moment. His subsequent response was the normal reaction of an NPC.

After standing there for a while, Xila was stunned: "Raziel, why aren't you saying anything?"

Raziel said irritably, "Didn't you want to see my skill level? This is my skill level."

Xila asked in surprise, "What level is this?"

Raziel sighed, “Now, if I say anything to him, it will be wrong, and he can refute me with the procedures of the divine realm. So, I will not speak. I will wait.”

Sila laughed and said, "Wait until he feels awkward being stared at, then he can speak first?"

Raziel said irritably, "I'm waiting for you to gather more information about his tree planting as evidence of his plot to escape from prison."

Sila panicked: "I've been praying, I can't leave!"

Raziel laughed too: "Then I'll stand in front of him and won't leave. I'll stand with you for as long as you pray."

Metatron was utterly perplexed: "Escape from the God Realm? Is that even possible?"

Gabriel said, "Is it possible that this is Da Chun's psychological tactic? He should have discovered that the Divine Prison is very powerful, but he noticed that he was changed to a different room when he first arrived, so he probably guessed that the reason for the room change was that the Dark Soul Witch was also there, and he must have guessed that the room change was due to Raziel's intervention."

Raziel became interested: "And then?"

Gabriel continued, "So he deliberately had the Chamber of Commerce do something incomprehensible to attract our attention and confusion, intentionally inducing Raziel to come forward again, so as to suspect that he was trying to escape from prison, and then change his room!"

Raziel laughed: "You think you can escape prison by changing rooms?"

Gabriel said, "But he'll definitely try everything! Like a vault in a safe, things are most likely to go wrong when it's being transferred. That's probably his thinking."

The group of elders were all taken aback: "That makes sense!"

Michael said in a deep voice, "Actually, it's quite simple to determine whether planting trees is a guild mission or not: just see if the guild members can actually trigger the mission. So, Raziel is right. Let's wait patiently; patience is also a weapon."

……

God's team headquarters.

The young master was extremely excited; the little mountain lord's progress was beyond expectations. Not only had he successfully joined the mage unit, but he could also directly access the machine to study blueprints and increase his proficiency.

Based solely on Xiaoshanjun's various explorations inside the machine box, he could easily edit videos to boast to the Ten Elders, proving that the Shenqian team had made a contribution as an inside agent.

Of course, the tenth leader would find the lack of prior communication suspicious. But there's a reason for that too: the inability to guarantee success, and the resulting expectation from the tenth leader, would put a lot of pressure on the team members…

Just then, Saito Zuo Gaowan from Tieyan Village reported: "Young Master, the Royal Broken Bottle Gang has sent 1 men to hunt down the Wild Boar King!"

The young master was astonished: "Isn't that an 80-level quest? Do they have the strength for that?"

Zuo Gaowan was puzzled: "So, should we block their retreat?"

The young master said in a deep voice, "Block it! Let's make the Ten Elders happy, and let these curries at the construction site see our strength..."

Royal Command.

With Ma Yinglong's order, the Royal Family's main force and the Great God's Shattered Bottle's main force began their advance towards the Wild Boar King, the most difficult enemy to defeat around Tieyan Village. This area had once been Tieyan Village's orchard, but was now occupied by the Wild Boar King.

Zhou Qing was incredulous: "Brother Long, Wei Shen and the others can take their time to resolve Brother Chun's tree planting issue. Brother Chun didn't say it was urgent."

Ma Yinglong laughed and said, "Just think of it as me being anxious! I've spent too much time exploring these days, and I'm also stuck in the village because of that bastard's contract, so I haven't had any real income. Fortunately, Moore and the others learned a lot about fruit tree care in the Druid Hut in the Dragon Rest Temple. Where would we players get fruit trees? Once we take them down, the orchard will be ours, which can be considered an industry."

Zhou Qing was taken aback: "But Baka and the others will definitely come and sabotage us while we're fighting the Boss, right?"

Ma Yinglong said in a deep voice, "Yes, that's exactly what we want! These past few days, the team members have been staying in the village and arguing with them. They need an outlet!"

……

Top Ten Chat Group.

The steward came to report: "News from Tieyan Village: the Chinese Royal Family and Dachun's Shattered Screen Gang, with 10,000 players, have left the village to fight for the orchard that has been occupied by wild boars. The Shenqian team has also started to follow them. A major battle of PK in the wild is about to break out."

Although Sariel was extremely nervous on the front lines with the mermaids, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement: "Has this idiot finally surprised me?"

Xila laughed and said, "This sudden orchard must be related to Dachun's tree planting, right?"

Gabriel insisted on his point of view: "This doesn't count either. It's just a deliberate task related to planting trees, deliberately mobilizing tens of thousands of people to make it seem grand. The purpose is still to mislead our judgment and induce Raziel to intervene in the prison."

Raziel retorted irritably, "Interfere in the prison? I can't even get through the prison gates."

Michael said in a deep voice, "Let the undercover agent keep observing. Even if it's just acting, there are still real benefits."

……

Shadow City.

Da Chun's spiderweb-like form withdrew from all 20 magic towers and entered the sewers to "close the net" and gather together.

Honestly, while the sewers have many advantages, there are few valuable targets, right? Unless we can recreate the time when Earth Lotus first learned earth runes and directly caused the Dark Elf City's sewers to collapse... Holy crap, what do you mean unless! We absolutely have to recreate that!
After the city collapsed, it was in chaos. I then reverted to my fire dragon form and swept through the chaos with a fiery hurricane.

In short, first activate Leyline Awareness and check the terrain of the sewers.

As the sewer system unfolded, a map of almost half the city's underground layout was revealed to Da Chun.

Da Chun suddenly discovered that there was a huge basement just one floor below the sewer, and there was a slight vibration sound.

Da Chun became interested. Could it be that, like the underground of the Arena of War Angels, there was a core computer room similar to a city's central control system?
Fine, shaking anyone else is not as good as shaking it!

"Di Lian, let's sneak in there!"

"Okay father!"

Da Chun considered that it might take a long time to infiltrate there, so he thought for a moment and said, "Di Lian, do you remember the earth-based rune spell that collapsed the Dark Elf City? Can we inscribe runes in the ground as we infiltrate there?"

Di Lian said, "Father, of course I remember. I also want to see what kind of power my original rune spell would have. To ensure maximum power, we won't shrink our form. This way, we can quickly inscribe a lot of runes."

"Okay, let's begin!"

Da Chun also wants to see. Back then, Di Lian had just debuted, but now Di Lian is a thousand-year-old novice god...

Soon, the earth's ley lines sensed an optimal path, and Da Chun's net-like vines began to spread in, leaving behind a series of wavy "loosen the soil" runes wherever the vines passed...
