[Dragon-Seeking Pickaxe: This is a relic of a legendary tomb raider.

As Li Xin looked at the document, he couldn't help but scratch his head.

"...I just want a pickaxe that can dig faster." He sighed helplessly.

Soon, he had a better idea.

Simply build a mining vehicle in the production workshop, and then evolve it. This way, you can get it done in one step.

Amidst the buzzing noise of the production workshop, a simple yet sturdy mining vehicle was quickly produced and assembled.

It has no fancy appearance; it is square and angular, with a large bucket at the front, followed by the cab and an open cargo compartment.

As the mining truck was brought out of sight, a series of data quickly appeared on it.

【Item Name: Mining Cart】

[Description: A brand-new, simple mining vehicle from the production workshop, with only one mission—to dig ore out of the ground.]

"Oh!" Li Xin's eyes lit up. This time, the evolution branch he wanted was available, and it was just the right amount to buy.

Almost instantly upon confirmation, this boxy, rustic mining truck began a series of astonishing changes. Its body revealed a gleaming white metallic shell, the truck body was significantly larger than before, and the interior of the cab was also greatly improved.

Besides the driver, it also requires three staff members to operate the various mechanical devices inside the vehicle to perform tasks such as exploration, mining, and refining. However, the process has been simplified, requiring only data monitoring and pressing a few buttons; staff can even relax and chat over tea on ordinary days.

Li Xin himself never expected that the first vehicle he would evolve into would be a mining truck. However, mining is a basic necessity.

He then mass-produced several more units in the production workshop.

Not long after, a roar came from the sky; the helicopter he had sent out to scout had returned.

Compared to land-based vehicles, scouting is much easier for flying vehicles, requiring no traversing mountains, valleys, or rivers. Its newly assigned mission is to "explore the terrain within a radius of hundreds of kilometers" and to check for "any noteworthy man-made structures or traces of civilization."

"There's nothing happening at the moment, Lord," the driver reported.

"Really?" Li Xin asked, half believing it.

He was still not entirely at ease and decided to take a helicopter to check it out himself.

This time, a truly surprising discovery was made.

While passing through a forest, Li Xin unexpectedly saw two figures emerging from the edge of the woods.

They were two human children returning from gathering firewood; they both had Western features, one male and one female.

He was utterly astonished, never expecting that the human race existed in other worlds as well.

Is it because under conditions similar to Earth, apes would eventually evolve into humans? Or is it that humans are simply a common species in many worlds?

He couldn't figure it out for the time being.

What reassured Li Xin was that the two children were dressed in rough linen clothes in a medieval style, and the baskets on their backs and the axes at their waists were also extremely crude—which clearly confirmed his guess that the world was in the era of slash-and-burn agriculture.

This also means that the technological creations of the original civilization were nothing more than swords, armor, and cannons, posing a negligible threat to human civilization.

"What a wonderful world this is!" exclaimed Lu Chen, who was traveling with them.

But a few seconds later, something happened that shocked the two of them.

The boy walking in front carried a large bundle of firewood on his back, making him hunched over and his steps heavy and slow. The girl following behind suddenly called out to him, pointing to the ground and shouting something—it turned out that the axe he was carrying at his waist had slipped and fallen to the ground behind him.

The boy glanced back. The axe was just a few steps behind him; it would only take a few seconds to walk over and pick it up.

But he seemed too lazy to move, so he muttered something to himself, and a pale blue light leaped from his palm, gracefully encircling the axe and steadily returning it to his hand.

Li Xin was stunned.

"This is... magic?"

......

"My name is Jimmy, and this is Anna. We are villagers from a nearby village."

The boy said timidly.

"This place is not only home to humans, but also to dwarves, elves, halflings, goblins, and all sorts of other races."

Li Xin nodded, his mind buzzing.

It turned out that it wasn't the primitive society he had imagined, but a fantasy world with a complete civilization structure, multiple intelligent races coexisting, and the magical power of magic.

This would completely overturn all his previous guesses.

Then, his gaze fell on the boy's thin, dark face and figure, as well as his rough clothes and belongings.

"Even an ordinary country boy can master magic... Just how advanced has magic become in this world?"

"By the way, is the world still dominated by humans?" Lu Chen asked curiously.

The two children looked at each other.

"It used to be," the girl Anna replied, "but it wasn't after the magical world war three years ago."

"......"

Li Xin and Lu Chen exchanged a glance and couldn't help but gasp.

A magical world war? What kind of magnificent and awe-inspiring scene would that be?

Just then, the boy Jimmy stepped forward and timidly spoke.

"Excuse me, could you give us a ride home if you're going that way?"
