Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 278

Ten people stood in front of a mine around 20 kilometers to the south of Starkhold.

Relatively close to the mine was a mining outpost where all the ore was gathered and transported.

Right now, the outpost was completely devoid of life.

Naturally, the Millards had pulled back all of their people until there was no more danger.

The mine was quite huge.

The entrance was a huge funnel-shaped hole with rails coming out of it.

The funnel itself was probably over 300 meters wide, and the bottom was almost 200 meters deep.

At the bottom was a dark tunnel that led deeper into the mine.

"As agreed, you will scout," Martin told Kyle.

Kyle nodded while still looking at the hole.

"Sven," Kyle said. "You're with me."

Sven just nodded and stepped forward.

Nobody except team Sandstorm knew that Sven was part of the Forthings, the biggest mining company in the entire kingdom.

Because of that, Kyle didn't say why he wanted Sven to come with him.

"Lily, bring us in. I don't want to make too much noise," Kyle said.

Lily snorted, and three birds rose from behind her.

The Alpha Team just looked at the golems with annoyance.

They believed that team Sandstorm was cheating.

How was this a team of a Fighter Guild?

They only had two Fighters on their team!

Sven jumped onto one of the birds while Kyle landed with one leg on each of the other two.

Kyle was a bit heavier than Sven.

Especially due to his new armor.

Although, it was important to note that Kyle's armor was no longer identical to how it had been in the past.

At this moment, Kyle only wore gauntlets, greaves, and armored pants.

His entire upper body and the majority of his arms were essentially bare.

Naturally, Kyle had a reason to choose such a setup.

Lily moved Kyle and Sven to the bottom of the mine, right in front of the dark tunnel.

"If we're not back within an hour, assume we're dead and tell the Chief!" Kyle shouted. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Didn't you want to stay quiet?" Sven asked with a raised brow.

"Vibrations, my friend," Kyle said. "I don't want to cause vibrations by jumping in here with my fat ass."

Sven snorted a short laugh.

Falk just lifted his hand to show that they had heard.

"Anyway, let's get right to it," Kyle said, cracking his joint before walking into the tunnel.

Sven nodded and followed Kyle.

"You got ore sense?" Kyle asked.

"I know about mines, but I've never mined any ore myself," Sven answered.

"Alright, let me, " Kyle said as he put his hand on one of the walls.

Sven raised a brow.

"Yep, Deepstone," Kyle said.

"How do you know that?" Sven asked.

"Ore sense. I just told you," Kyle commented with a smirk.

"You have ore sense?" Sven asked.

"Oh, come on," Kyle said. "You're one of the Forthings. You telling me you don't recognize this thing?"

Then, he swung his hammer a bit.

Sven frowned. "I didn't want to pry," he said.

"You know, I'm a bit of a miner myself," Kyle said.

"I didn't say I was a miner," Sven answered.

"I know, but the joke wouldn't work if I didn't add myself."

Sven just shook his head.

Kyle's sense of humor was strange sometimes.

The two of them continued walking into the mine.

There were still rails in this part of the mine, and there were plenty of tunnels.

While walking, Kyle kept one of his hands on one of the walls to search for ore.

"They missed a spot here," Kyle commented, walking past a random part of the wall.

Sven didn't answer.

After walking for almost 200 meters, they found the rails moving downward in a spiral pattern.

"Huh, so they are actually mining deeper. Too lazy to widen the funnel?" Kyle asked.

"Widening a funnel gets exponentially harder the wider it gets," Sven explained. "It makes no sense to expand it too much."

"Huh, makes sense," Kyle commented as he jumped onto one of the rails.

CRK!

And the rail bent under his weight.

"What are you doing?" Sven asked.

"I wanted to grind down," Kyle said with disappointment.

Sven just shook his head again as he grimaced weirdly.

Kyle noticed.

'Is he stifling a laugh?' he thought.

'So, Mr. Serious isn't always so serious.'

As the two of them walked down the spiral, Sven furrowed his brows.
