45. Mining


[Aurelia POV]


The sadness of running out of such a delicious meal felt so sad, but more than that, I had made a big mistake.


It's bad, very very bad.


How can I actually eat diamonds that are an important ingredient in several Mining Craft craft items.


“I don't know how else.”


I could've looked for another diamond and I'd have gotten it. But the problem is after I get the diamond I want then what?.


Should I eat it again?.


No, it would just be a useless waste. I gotta keep that diamond, period!.


I earnestly resolved not to eat any more diamonds. But is that possible?.


The pleasure I felt before was truly unopposed. Like an addict, I lost control of myself once I got the diamond.


It was as if the instinct I had indeed wanted me to eat the diamond I had obtained.


Is it possible that this is due to the nature of the Avatar worm that I use?. This makes me wonder, what if I disable the Hungry Worm game, will the interest in eating diamonds disappear?.


A lot of things I don't understand so let's learn one by one.


No need to rush, Arang said that he would bring many troops to conquer the Dungeon that I saw in the dream. Everything should be okay with this, right?.


“Although I still want to see Rani. But not in this situation.”


I hope that Arang and the Master Builder can quickly solve the problem of T-X robots so that I can use them as a substitute for my body.


But it seemed like it would hold her for a longer time until what I wanted came true.


“Alright, let's start back to work.”


Using my hunger instinct, I searched for something that could be sold from within the bowels of the earth. Just like I thought if the feeling I felt when I found the diamond I could no longer feel.


It proved if the diamond won a rare item that could not possibly be easily found. But besides diamonds there are also many other items that I can take.


I headed to the nearest food first. The digging speed is faster than when I move on the surface.


That's because Werwurm is a reliable digger with the power of the earth dragon, plus the effect of increasing due to eating diamonds makes the speed of movement increase up to 300%.


“This is it.”


Impatiently, I immediately ate the ore I just found. Although I had previously intended to keep it, but the curiosity of the taste of the new ore made me lose control.


“Hemmm... It's not as good as a diamond, but it's good.”


Because it was not as good as diamonds, I did not spit out the seeds that I ate and then ate again as I did before.


Ding!


[Getting 1 Tungsten ore]


[Using 90 Exp]


[Levels Up]


Through the notification I can find out the name of the ore he is eating.


“Even Tungsten.”


As a steelworker, I knew little about the metal that had just entered my mouth. Tungsten is known as the strongest loga that can be obtained from nature.


Because of its durability Tungsten is used as a material for making military equipment such as anti-tank bullets, long-range missiles and so on.


If people know on this mountain it turns out to store deposits of Tungsten ore to diamonds, it can be ascertained if the mining bosses will flock to this place to mess up everything there.


Although I myself work in a job that is very closely related to mining, but actually I really hate such a business because it is very damaging to nature.


Then how are you doing with me who is currently not like a soil dredger that damages the environment?.


There was nothing to worry about, most of the land I ate I would throw behind me so that no empty holes were left as I moved within the earth.


“I mean... yeah surely you can already imagine it.”.


My activities continued until there were many mining materials that I managed to collect.


“Really, what's with this mountain as if all the mining materials I know are stored in this place.”


Just by doing mining I already feel like a rich man, how not try to imagine how you feel if you suddenly find gold reserves that can amount to tens of kilograms.


Not only that, I also found reserves of silver, coal, iron and various precious stones such as sapphire, Ruby and many gemstones that I do not know the name.


Now I understand why a lot of people don't care about environmental issues. As long as a lot of money can be obtained, they will continue to dredge the earth without knowing satisfaction.


“As happened to me at this time.”


Amidst the dark underbelly of the earth, I fell silent while looking at the large supply of mining materials I could get.


I've been mining for hours, but I still haven't had enough. I want to buy a new game with features that can give me what I've always wanted.


But, does winning have to do it as soon as possible?.


How about rest?.


Although I do not feel tired because the stamina will continue to be fully charged as I eat the ground and stones.


But I still feel mentally exhausted.


This is so bad, what if I get too used to the worm body at the moment, could it be that I would even forget if I was actually a human?.


“I think it's time to go back.”


Not wanting to lose my mind, I decided to end the excavation for today. Disabling the Hungry Worm, my vision that was originally just a dark room in the ground was now a very beautiful factory area.


“I feel I have left this place for many years.”


My heart was at ease when I saw the outdoors around the factory area so beautiful, many birds flying in the sky and wild animals playing in the forest.


Although it was short, but I felt like I had left this place for many years.


“Wait, what if I really have gone through years of digging?.”


In a panic I immediately opened the calendar which is one of the features of the System Play Store. After looking at the calendar I immediately sighed in relief because what I was afraid of turned out to be just my imagination.


Apparently during the excavation I had spent three hours. Charcoal is still not back, at the moment it seems like he is building a house for the refugees.


“Hem, what if I help them with the material I have?.”


My mind instantly recalled the skill I had in building a house in the Mining Craft game.


I could only build a box-shaped house out of blocks of earth and wood.


“It was very bad.”


I told you that I'm just a casual player, so don't expect me to have extraordinary skills in playing games.


Although I cannot build a house, but I believe that Arang and the others can use the materials I have better.


I also summoned some goblins who would be the carriers. After taking thousands of blocks of material from me, the Goblins immediately set off using an air ballon.


Seeing the balloon start flying east, it made me feel sleepy.


“I think it's time for me to take a nap.”


Shutting down all the games, my soul returned to the head piece inside the safe. The darkness in the safe wants me to know what it's like to be on the ground.


“Dark and quiet, I don't like it.”
