Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 283

Kyle watched with a smile as the Alpha Team discussed the mission.

Naturally, they didn't want to kill a bunch of Earth Elementals.

The issue with Earth Elementals was not just the way they fought, but also their power and numbers.

The deeper one dug, the more Earth Elementals there would be.

Usually, Earth Elementals were not aggressive. In fact, they didn't even eat meat.

They just absorbed the Ether from the ground to become stronger.

However, if anything came too close to their territory…

'They're kinda like boars,' Kyle thought.

Kyle had learned quite a bit about Earth Elementals within the past couple of minutes.

'Didn't know these things were such an issue for upper-class ore merchants,' Kyle thought.

Having a small mine was pretty easy.

Cheap mines were small, didn't need a lot of personnel to operate, and they didn't have ore that was strong enough to make ore fiends.

Having a medium mine meant dealing with the occasional Ore Fiend, but that could be solved by having a couple of guards present.

Yet, when a mine was about to transition into a big one, things became very difficult.

Earth Elementals.

The weakest Earth Elementals were already in the Mid Second Realm, and those were rare.

Most of them were in the Late or Peak Second Realm.

In fact, Earth Elementals in the Third Realm were also relatively common.

Getting a big mine was extremely difficult, and it was the one thing that differentiated normal miners from actual miner overlords.

Dealing with Earth Elementals meant having at least one Third Realm person in employ who could kill them.

But these powerful people were beyond expensive, and how could a medium mine support such an expense?

Naturally, for a big miner family like the Forthings, the appearance of an Earth Elemental was a daily occurrence.

The family simply employed a couple of experienced teams, which would travel from mine to mine to deal with them.

"Your part of the mission is done," Martin told Kyle.

"Alright, cool," Kyle answered. "See you later!"

Team Sandstorm left the mine behind and went back to the Stark Brotherhood.

On their way back, Michael and Falk asked Kyle and "Sven" about the mine.

"Dude, we were super lucky," Kyle said. "I found its heart before it even found us. If it had found us first, this would've turned horrible."

Selene, still disguised, acted like she wasn't listening.

Since they were not the ones who had accepted the mission, they didn't need to report to the guild.

So, as soon as they came back, they split up again to return to what they had been doing before.

Lily went back to working on her golems, while Michael practiced Spellcasting.

Kyle wasn't sure what Falk was doing, but that also didn't really matter.

That left Selene and Kyle.

"So, I've got a barren room in here with a nice stonewall view," Kyle said, moving closer to Selene. "You wanna come over?"

Selene just wordlessly moved towards Kyle's room.

"Same as always," Kyle said as he sat down near one of the walls. "No plan whatsoever." _{free\we,bnovel.c o(m)}
