《Observation Log Of Miss Miner》Chapter 7: Sudden Warning
Advertisement
"919 unrefined jade."
"Wow, this time, you pushed yourself quite hard."
The man said while handing the bag to Andrews.
It is no surprise that man said since, unlike last time where we took ten days to collect and fill my cargo.
This time, we did in seven days with extra. That extra it is thanks to my convertors that I finally fixed.
Using my convertors, I can convert anything into the pure matter.
But of course, anything except those unique rocks with a 100% conversion rate. 30% of their total mass is the limit of the current converter I have, and I have to repair it every time cause the conversion of non-pure one regularly damages it.
That is why I only took a small amount of soil and rock. To not let them see a drastic change in the container.
I can't depend on the 30% rate. It has no productive as cause I spend almost all converted matter back to repairing my convertors.
So I need those rocks with a 100% conversion rate.
"All of you, we met in this place day later. So take a rest and prepare your essentials. Including you two."
Just like that, the group dismisses, and each member went to into their own separate ways.
Andrews left me on the usual spot and disappeared.
This time I could finally see my surroundings in full.
There was heavy contrast between the two sides. On my side, things looked no different medieval-era slum districts make one feel the gloom and poverty just by looking at it.
On the other hand, the other side is full of elegant or large buildings that seemingly came out from a book.
I imagined, when both buildings build side by side following eighter aesthetics of western or easter architecture were mixed up. It would look very weird or tacky, but overall it gave off a very novel look.

But I didn't see anything related to me or to specific science fiction kind.
There are only old cracked roads towards mine, some parking lots accommodating mining automatons like me, but that is it!
Even road on the fancy side made out of bricks made by carving precious stones.
Which is quite an old and outdated way of making the road, by the way!.
Look like the science-fiction side got pushed away or even destroyed for an unknown reason.
Sadly, at least for now, I don't have ways to know what happened to that faction.
But for now, it is time to test my new add-on!
*Tadaa~*
With my command, a small drone appeared in front of me. It possesses a visor with light blue light with a simple tear-drop-shaped body that is no bigger than an adult fist.
Drone Production Bay Lv2 Allow one produces the semi-automatic drone. Available drone for production: Surveillance Drone Lv1. Total number of drones under control 1/3* Surveillance Drone Lv1 Small and fast drones possess no weapons or payload but have a high-quality camera and a huge operating range. It can be outfit with a scanner of the same level of creator. Advanced Military-Grade Scanner Lv3 The powerful scanner can record the composition of the target also used to obtain a blueprint of technology, including military-grade one.
I gave him the name Timmy.
Now, go Timmy!
Scan every automaton in the vicinity for your mommy.
New Technology added to list.
New Technology added to list.
New Technology added to list.
New Technology added to list
......
Thus, when I finished scanning every automaton in the vicinity…It was already morning.
Sadly all tech I obtained was already outdated as I already possess the latest ones.
"HM, ready to work again."
And I saw Andrew coming to take me to the mine.

But this time, he and his group stopped at the gate.
"Oh, Andrews going back to digging this soon?."
"I can't rest until I earn back the jades paid for this automaton."
"Then you better reload that thing. I heard they have begun to appear again, especially around in the tunnels."
I saw how Andrew's and his group's expressions turn dark after hearing the warning from the guard.
What are 'They'?
"Okay, I will do that. Thanks for the warning."
At the moment, we arrived at our part of the tunnel. Including Andrews himself, they immediately formed two clean lines on my sides.
Each of them holding the useless ore, it was obvious they were waiting for the opening of my kitchen.
"Heh, any of you bring rations this time?"
"No! After tasting that meal in a cup, everything I put in my mouth tasted like shit!"
"True, especially that flavored fastening pills taste like crap compared to this."
"Brother, why do you like a sour one ?"
What happened to gloominess just a few seconds ago?
Where is this merry group come from?
Is it taste of my brewage is better than that thing's trouble.
I also wanted to taste my brewage, but I remembered the word.
A wise man once said good businessman never tries his own product.
Maybe it is better not to feel any taste at last for now.
After the meal, Andrews left the tunnel and returned while pushing a quite big cart.
"All of you help me to place those things on HM's loader."
When he removes the cover, I saw 16 large boxes about the size of an adult man's torso. Each of them filled to the brim with bullets.
Ooh boy, it was the right choice that I upgraded my autocannon to a twin one.
"Hey, Chen."
"What?"
"Come and climb on top of that HM's container."
After they finished loading the ammunition on my loader, Andrews called big brother by his name.
"Okay."
"Now, do you see some kind of pipe stuck under those chains ?"
"Yes."
"Pull and remove that pipe."
"I did."
Weapon Safety Has Been Removed
What!
My weapon safety was just a two-iron pipes?
"Now, there should be a lever behind that big box. Do you see it?"
"Yes, should I pull it ?"
"Do it."
*Click!*
*HNNNNNNN!*
*Tink!Tink!Tink!*
Following the sound, I could hear the bullets passing through the belt connected to my turrent.
Replenishing Ammunition. Loading... Twin-Autocannon is loaded and ready to fire.

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.
