The Game of Global Mining

Chapter 158: Bribing the Supervisor to Ask for Overtime


To be honest, even as a player, Chun still has a moral bottom line: "This is a plague that could wipe out Black Flag Island! How can you let the Crows spread it?"

The Siren laughed: "Didn't you give me the formula? I played a good round with the Mermaids, even wrecked a ship, and shared the formula with her in the water. If I didn't let the Crows assist, what good would the formula do her? I found some fun and did a big favor. The Mermaids even thanked me in the water saying I'm a good sister..."

So this is the trick of poisoning while selling the cure?

Chun was anxious: "Once the plague spreads, won't they find out it's us?"

The Siren laughed: "This is not the crow plague or rat plague, it's obviously a third kind of plague. Besides, whether you spread it or not, they'll eventually come after you anyway!"

Still, you're the one who framed me!

Chun was truly speechless. After all, she is a Sea Demon; not rebelling on the spot is already considerate enough. What more can you say to her...

Though it's immoral, I have to say it really can solve big issues—Mermaid's status, the cohesion of Nancy's Divine Format, causing trouble for Silver City so they won't have the energy to attack me...

Nancy spoke up: "City Lord, don't worry. This is a plague confined on a ship for a hundred years, who knows how many generations it has mutated through, it shouldn't be as severe as the original. There's still time for a cure. Didn't you harvest the first batch of pumpkins? I'll go prepare it!"

There's hope! Indeed, I just need to post on the forum saying I have top-grade pumpkins...

The Siren laughed: "See, even your sister says so, it's just for fun after all."

Nancy said: "Siren sis, come to the blacksmith shop, I'll return the ring to you. You can help Smith for me, I only helped for a few hours and reached Intermediate Forging level 10!"

The Siren was pleased: "Ah, so easy, I love leveling up with ease!"

The next moment, the Siren exclaimed excitedly: "What a great thing this is!"

Chun was helpless: "Goddess, stay calm, don't scare the Grandmaster, there's plenty of good stuff if you handle things properly in the future!"

The Siren laughed: "Haha, alright, sister, go on with your tasks..."

Chun asked: "Nancy, should I help?"

Nancy: "No need, the City Lord can't make potions, just focus on leveling up."

Indeed, it's pretentious to insist on helping when you can't be of help.

Keep hanging out, don't disturb Aileen's insights.

Then check on the newbie account.

— System prompt: You shared the main body's "Advanced Heavy Slash" level 1, "Advanced Water Combat" level 1 through Soul Link.

Um, although it's shared, the Advanced Heavy Slash doesn't come with Smooth Slash. Sure enough, the conditions for the main and alternate accounts are different, so is the sharing degree.

Checking the mining progress, only a few carts are left. It's not easy; the alternate account can't be handled like this in the future, the efficiency is too low.

Ultimately, we need to raise the value of the Earth Flame Purple Crystal Ore...

Having stayed up all night, it's time for some nap now.

...

At this time, Uriel is more urgently considering how to raise the price of Purple Crystal Ore. After finishing the monster siege, recruiting two Grandmasters, and taking a long sleep to recover Spirit, Uriel finally extracted time to bring the "key" purchased with 30,000 Privilege Points to the Earth Flame Tribe.

Sure enough, with the key in hand, the outer Earth Flame Giant turned from red to yellow name, and finally, it was possible to see the Earth Flame Leader under its guidance.

Uriel had no trace of joy, after all, the big gift package had already been claimed.

However, Uriel still hoped for some error in his design, hoping for a miracle to appear.

The leader saw the stone and was filled with emotion: "This is the gift left by my Mother Selya the Mother Earth, then lost in the Earth Flame Abyss, obtained by the Flaming Multi-headed Serpent there—you helping me find it back is impressive."

— System prompt: Your reputation in the Earth Flame Tribe has changed to "Doubtful"...

This friendliness level is so low that Uriel couldn't hold it.

But Uriel also knew the defect of this big gift package lies here, that the Fallen Angel as a Demon Race is naturally opposed to the Earth Flame Tribe; being doubtful was a big step.

Uriel continued: "It is an honor to serve the leader. Is there anything else the leader needs from me?"

The leader said: "Defeating the Multi-headed Serpent in the Fire Abyss shows you have strong magma swimming skills, there's a Magma Lake outside the tribe, and within it, there's a very beautiful Purple Crystal Fish. Catch ten for me, I need their beauty in this pond."

Uriel was stunned. Why is it fishing? Shouldn't it be collecting Crystal Stone Flowers in narrow caves?

How do I have the ability to fish in a Magma Lake? Won't it burn me to death? Unless it's fishing, but the fishing rod and line must be custom-made to not be melted by the magma, where can I get such rod and line? There's no time either...

So indeed, once the gift package is claimed, it deviates from the preset!

Should I tell the leader that I actually hired someone to obtain it? The risk is too great; it'd make the leader think I'm incapable. But not bearing hopes on this gift anymore, I'll take a gamble, show honesty, Earth Flame Giants like honest people.

"Leader, this Earth Crystal Core was actually obtained by hiring mercenaries from a commerce association to defeat the Multi-headed Serpent. I don't have that capability..."

The leader was stunned and then said calmly: "This truly disappoints me... But it's alright, you think about it slowly."

— System prompt: Regrettably! Your reputation in the Earth Flame Tribe has dropped to "Disdain".

Wrong bet again!

Uriel was so angry, he was nearly exploding with frustration!

Alright, since I'm stuck at the Earth Flame Tribe, it's time to face reality, properly support the Dios Commerce Association.

And to raise the Purple Crystal Ore price, there's only one way, enhance and expand Hell's war factory capacity, let Hell initiate more siege wars! The more wars, the easier it is for those maneuvering young masters to level up, saving me a lot of hassle.

Meanwhile, the Divine Team's Hell mining efforts must also be vigorous...

...

And at this moment, the Divine Team is facing an awkward predicament.

This new Supervisor really strictly enforced the eight-hour workday, no strikes, lazy napping, didn't care! Once the eight hours are up, confiscate the pickaxe. This means being idle for the remaining 16 hours?

Or to make spare time specifically to explore second-layer strategies? Not at all possible with this group!

"Peeping Tom, what do you suggest?"

Peeping Immortal was also nervous: "Gather the privately hidden Mineral Crystals from members, bribe the Supervisor a bit, let it allow us overtime!"

Young Master was very helpless: "Give it a try."

And indeed, a member brought good news: "It worked!"

Young Master was incredulous! Bribing for overtime, such a foolish and ridiculous thing actually happened...

Young Master had to order: "All overtime team members' obtained Mineral Crystals all used to bribe the Supervisor..."

"Understood!"
