Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start

71 Mining Divine Artifact, Daily Profit!

The lord could change the terrain of his territory at will, but this mountain range was a mystic realm resource that Wang Xiao had fused previously, so it was not under his control.

Back then, he had fused with this mountain range for the various spirit herbs inside. Now that he had almost gathered all the spirit herbs, it was indeed a little troublesome to leave the mountain here.

After studying it for a moment, Wang Xiao had an idea. He didn’t summon his mutated beast but took out a beast egg from his inventory.

[Metal Devouring Ant]

This was one of the ten beast eggs Chen Jinrong had given Wang Xiao.

[Metal Devouring Ant] was a type of mutated beast that was relatively common in medium-sized mystic realms. They usually appeared in groups.

Although it didn’t have very strong attack power, it had a skill that Wang Xiao urgently needed. It could feed on rocks or even sand and filter impurities to transform the minerals inside into high-quality ores.

This was because if there were too many impurities in the ore, the price would also decrease greatly.

Take the most common [Copper Ore] on the market for example. Compared to the impure [Ordinary Copper Ore], the price of the pure [Fine Copper Ore] might be more than double!

Moreover, ore refinement was time-consuming and laborious, so many lords left after extracting the pure ore. As for the remaining ordinary ore, it would become Wang Xiao’s source of wealth in the future!

It had to be said that although Chen Jinrong going back on his word made Wang Xiao a little angry, he really appreciated these ten beast eggs.

Thinking about his future of sitting at home and earning money every day, Wang Xiao didn’t hesitate at all. He directly cut his wrist and dripped his blood on the beast egg of the [Metal Devouring Ant].

[Contract successful.]

[Incubation time estimated to be 15 hours.]

The [Metal Devouring Ant] was not a combat-type mutated beast, so the hatching time was also greatly shortened. However, Wang Xiao couldn’t wait to get rich, so he directly took out an acceleration tool card and pressed it.

[Incubation Complete]!

The incubation progress bar was quickly filled at a visible speed. Then, the eggshell cracked a few times with a bang, and a fist-sized ant with a faint light all over its body crawled out.

[Metal Devouring Ant]

[Bronze Quality Level 1]

[Skill: Ore Refinement]

After eating the broken eggshell in a few bites, the little [Metal Devouring Ant] shook its big head and came in front of Wang Xiao. It gently rubbed its antennae against the bottom of his pants, looking very intimate.

Wang Xiao bent down and touched the little [Metal Devouring Ant]’s head. Then, with a wave of his hand, [Ten Thousand Times Quantity Increase] directly superimposed!

Previously, Wang Xiao wanted to use the quantity increase on the city-state, but that was just a thought.

At the moment, his territory was only 300 miles wide. Even with Zhou Xiruo’s territory, it was only about 500 miles. It was unrealistic to build 10,000 city-states.

As for the [Ten Thousand Times Growth Increase], Wang Xiao did not use it on the [Metal Devouring Ant] because this mutated beast could level up by itself as long as it kept devouring ores.

Although its speed was a little slow, Wang Xiao did not plan to use it to fight, so there was no need to waste an enhancement opportunity.

A white light flashed, and 10,000 bronze level one [Metal Devouring Ants] instantly appeared. Although each of them was only the size of a fist, it was still quite spectacular to see 10,000 of them together.

Looking at the ant swarm that covered the ground, Wang Xiao nodded in satisfaction and pointed at the mountain range in front of him. “Let’s eat!”

Phew—

Upon receiving the order, the ten thousand [Metal Devouring Ants] rushed towards the mountain range like a thick blanket suffused with black light.

Right on the heels of that, a grinding sound that made one’s teeth ache sounded. In less than ten seconds, Wang Xiao could clearly tell that the mountain range had become much shorter.

At the same time, specks of starlight appeared on the mountain. They were the various minerals refined by the [Metal Devouring Ant] after they devoured the mountain

Seeing that the efficiency of the [Metal Devouring Ant] was so high, Wang Xiao was very satisfied. He was not in a hurry to collect ores and returned to the city-state that was still being built.

In the time Wang Xiao took to return, Zhou Xiruo had already completed the construction of the main body of the city-state. Next, as long as she set up the three external defense lines, these two city-states would be completely completed.

Wang Xiao originally wanted to wait for Zhou Xiruo to settle things before bringing her to the trading market to look for Ma Yunle. At the same time, he wanted to give her the 10,000 people.

However, seeing the tired expression on Zhou Xiruo’s face, Wang Xiao changed his words at the last minute. “Ma Yunle has received 20,000 people. I’m going to collect them. Why don’t you rest for a while too?”

“It’s fine. It’s almost done.”

Zhou Xiruo replied casually. As she spoke, she did not even look at Wang Xiao. It was obvious that she was still angry.

Wang Xiao knew that he was in the wrong and wanted to apologize, but he did not know how to say it. He could only silently take out a few bottles of recovery potions and place them aside. Then, with a thought, he left the territory.

Taking out the [Nirvana Mask] and putting it on, Wang Xiao instantly turned into a middle-aged man. Even the hospital gown on his body became common casual clothes. Then, he swaggered out of the hospital.

He arrived at the trading market.

Wang Xiao was about to contact Ma Yunle when he suddenly saw an acquaintance—the owner of the Lord’s Shop, Lin Xiang.

Previously, Wang Xiao had gone to the Lord’s Shop to buy some high-level beast eggs. In the end, the Lord’s Shop only had some bronze and silver level beast eggs. This transaction did not succeed.

However, Lin Xiang did not want to let go of a big customer like Wang Xiao, so he recommended Wang Xiao to try his luck in the artificial secret realm in the shop. Because of this, Wang Xiao subdued the level three Gold Armor Black Turtle.

Now that he saw Lin Xiang again, Wang Xiao was about to go over and greet him. However, before he could go forward, he realized that something was wrong.

Lin Xiang hurriedly walked in front, followed by six middle-aged men in black robes.

The six of them carried a huge metal box together. The surging energy aura on their bodies was extremely dense. Clearly, their strength was not bad. However, this group of seven people seemed to be nervous. Their gazes swept across the surroundings and they almost never stopped!

Wang Xiao guessed that there must be a treasure in that metal box, but he did not know what it was that made the branch manager, Lin Xiang, so nervous.

As he thought to himself, Wang Xiao directly walked towards those people. From afar, he waved and shouted, “Manager Lin! What a coincidence!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xiao felt six sharp gazes staring at him. Only then did he remember that he was still wearing the [Nirvana Mask]. He hurriedly returned to his original appearance with a thought.

“So it’s Mr. Wang!”

Lin Xiang recognized Wang Xiao and waved at the six people behind him. “It’s fine. This is a big customer of our shop!”

The six of them retracted their gazes when they heard this. Lin Xiang came to Wang Xiao’s side and said with a smile, “What treasure did Mr. Wang obtain? It can actually change your appearance in such a realistic way?”

“It’s just a disguise tool.”

Wang Xiao casually brushed it off and turned into a middle-aged man again. He smiled bitterly and said, “I don’t want to be surrounded by a group of people wherever I go.”

Lin Xiang clearly knew what Wang Xiao was talking about. He cupped his hands and said in admiration, “That’s normal. Mr. Wang is young and promising. Even now, when I think about that live broadcast, I still feel my blood boil!”

After a pause, Lin Xiang pointed at the large metal box. “We just received a batch of goods. I wonder if you’re interested?”
