Chapter 75: Automated Factory
Behind the door was a messy mercury refining room.
Qi Ge hid behind a fallen alchemy table next to the door and observed secretly. The high-level gargoyles alone discovered three teams.
There is also a team of mages and a team of senior mages in the distance.
It seems that the difficulty of this mercury refining room is much higher than normal.
Generally speaking, mages will only appear in the final boss battle.
Qi Ge used bows and arrows to pull groups of enemies into the battle space and eliminate them. For Qi Ge, who had a luck value of 9 points, these enemies were no match for him.
After the battle, Qi Ge began to rummage through the things around him.
Found 20 mercury and 4 diary fragments in the alchemy pot.
Later, fragment 3 was found in the chandelier.
Diary of Mercury Refiner Morey 3/8
"After cleaning up those troublesome goblins , the other goblins have become much more obedient.
The mercury extractor has also been repaired, which is good news.
But I found a problem.
The goblins that were fished out of the mercury pool were covered in mercury. Some of the mercury seeped into their flesh, and some was drunk by them.
This caused me a lot of trouble with separation.
When I was using freezing magic to freeze mercury, I found that after being frozen, the mercury could actually stick tightly to the fairy's body, which was very beautiful.
This gave me a bold idea.”

"I did it! I'm a genius!
After wrapping the goblin with mercury, it is very easy to color it and make a statue of the goblin screaming.
Once launched, it was very popular among mages!
Even great wizards come to me to make them for you. They are very useful in intimidating those dishonest goblins.
I found that I could make a fairy with an expressionless face by knocking her unconscious.
Burning with fire can create a painful fairy,
Lightning can create incontinent goblins.
Using the freezing technique to suddenly freeze the fairy can create a dumbfounded fairy...
A variety of different expressions can meet the needs of different mages!
One unit of mercury costs 60 gold coins, and one goblin costs 30 gold coins.
Noble mercury plus lowly goblins can actually be sold for 500 gold coins!
I’m rich, I’m rich!
I will soon be the richest alchemist in Bracada!"
? ?
Is this how those fairy wax figures came about?
Qi Ge frowned.
How many wax figures are there in the dungeon? 1,000? 10,000?
Too many to count!
A lowly goblin?
Qi Ge thought of the fairy merchant Ke Ruoke who was sewing ammunition bags for the little fairy Feng with needle and thread; he thought of the fairy housekeeper Petra who was working hard in the territory; he thought of the fairy waterwheel who was working day and night to repay his kindness.
A lowly demon? Morey, you beast, you are the lowly one!
Qi Ge didn't want to find any diary at all now, he just wanted to catch the chaos Morey and give him a good beating.
He observed the alchemy workshop and found an exhaust duct on the ceiling.
Qi Ge jumped up nimbly, opened the iron cover of the exhaust duct, climbed up the bulge on the wall with one hand, and threw a torch in with the other hand, hitting a group of gargoyles.
There was indeed an ambush.
Qi Ge estimated the size of the vent and crawled in on his stomach.
He took out a bow and arrow from his backpack and shot an arrow into the gargoyle's wing.
Qi Ge used the Centaur Archer to kill the gargoyle in a few seconds and began to climb along the ventilation duct.
I found another torn page of a diary along the way.
Diary of Mercury Refiner Morey 5/8
“Oh my god, the price of the big goblin statue is three times more expensive than the small goblin statue! A full 1,500 gold coins!
Because after the fairy's blue robe is painted, it will produce a magical reaction with mercury and become sparkling!
Now I have no shortage of mercury, but I am actually short of goblins!
Even though I have rushed to buy snow goblins outside the city from poaching teams, it is still not enough to satisfy the appetite of the entire Bracada.
I heard that a Titan in the capital praised my artwork highly after seeing it.
They say I have made the most of waste!
The trash and mercury that were once a burden on society are cleverly combined to form a beautiful garden sculpture!
So those wizards went crazy and placed orders desperately. Even if I set up a fairy sculpture production line, it still couldn't satisfy their appetite.
I don't have enough goblins to sell anymore!
Fairy, fairy, where is the fairy?
That damn slave-hunting team is not doing their best. If it doesn't work, I will go outside the city to catch them myself!"
Qi Ge sneered and was no longer angry.
Getting angry with such a scumbag will ruin your style.
Just grind him to dust.
Following the ventilation duct, Qi Ge climbed to a factory.
The factory is a goblin sculpture production line with a huge dried-up mercury pool.
And a condensation array that is still working.
On the conveyor belt were many unpainted goblins with ferocious and painful expressions, wrapped in mercury.
Qi Ge couldn't bear to watch, so he turned his head away, took a deep breath, and told himself:
"Qi Ge, this is already a picture of the past. You cannot change the past, but you can break this endless cycle and give freedom to the wronged spirits of those fairies."
He jumped down from the vent and stepped on the head of an iron man.
After killing the Iron Man instantly, Qi Ge took out his bow and arrow and killed all the enemies he found one by one.
Afterwards, Qi Ge did not rush to look for clues, but gathered all the mercury statues of fairies together and wrapped them with cloth.
Then he took out the treasure shovel, dug a big hole, and buried all the statues in it.
I'm very sorry, due to limited conditions, we don't have a coffin.
Fairies, like humans in real life, also value being buried in peace.
It's better than just sitting on a conveyor belt like an item.
This is just a projection of the past. In fact, there is no point in Qi Ge doing this.
In the end, I just want two words.
Peace of mind.
After burying the goblin, Qi Ge began to look for clues.
Two fragments of pages were found in the gears of the conveyor belt.

"I was wrong about the slave-catchers.
Those goblins are more cunning than imagined, they actually dare to escape!
What an ungrateful bastard!
How many wild monsters transformed from Chaos Demons are there in the snow outside the city? Can they deal with them?
Instead of feeding those wild monsters, you might as well exchange them for gold coins for Uncle Morey, and use your miserable lives to build a few more floors of Uncle Morey's Mage Tower.
Alas, the gold coins are gone.
We can only go to those slave-catching teams and think of a solution.
It's all their fault! If they had caught all the goblins earlier, this wouldn't have happened!
A bunch of bastards who took the money but didn't do their job !
I shouldn't have believed this neutral garbage."
Haha. Are you afraid that your death won't be tragic enough?
Qi Ge was so angry that he laughed.

“Oh my God!
Great news!
There is actually a noble, supreme, and almighty Lord Thunder Titan who has taken a fancy to these little gadgets of mine!
He actually wanted to buy 50,000 goblin statues to decorate his shoe cabinet!
oh!
This is the blessing that I, Morey, have accumulated in several lifetimes!
I have to get this deal, no matter what, no matter what method I use.”
Now, only the last fragment of the diary remains.
Qi Ge turned his gaze towards the mercury pool.
Hurry up, Morey, I hope you are the final boss.
Otherwise, I will let this anger down.
I can't swallow it!
