《Another World: Scientist》Chapter 28. The First Mine.
Advertisement
A few hours pass until Ion returns with a small army of volunteers...?
"The Empress let us 'borrow' this many people for our search. She also pointed out at least 10 unexplored mines and 5 mines semi-explored." (Ion)
"Do they all know what the materials look like?" (Hayden)
"Yes. That's why it took a few hours. I had them all memorize the materials." (Ion)
I nod and look at them all, I then return to my desk as Ion floats next to me with a map.
"The mines are all recorded here with the known materials in it. None of the mines they have have any of the materials we need. Only a ton of coal and other things." (Ion)
I take a look at the mines. Five of them are quite close but the others are a a fair distance away from our current location.
With this small army of explorers we could search four mines at the same time...
"Ion. Split them up into four different squads. Send squad one to Hipsire mine. Squad two to Koro mine. Squad three to Varille mine and the last squad to Potomo mine. Me and you shall go to Hipsire mine with the first squad." (Hayden)
Ion does as I ask and the squads start heading off and so do I after letting Ion tell the research squad to just relax until I come back.
We walk for two hours until we reach Hipsire mine.
"This is Hipsire Mine. Nobody has explored it yet since there is a far bigger mine, which has some rare materials which we don't need, just a mere hours walk away from here." (Ion)
I grab my electric drill out of my backpack as we head into the mine or more like a cave.

The Empire pre-emptively named all the mines so it would be easier to understand which mine to go to next, probably...
We walk in a pattern that kind of looks like a Roman two. Ah, good old Rome... We found a ton of records about them in a facility near the Alps.
About thirty minutes and nothing. Just pure stone. Even Ion isn't detecting anything else than stone.
An entire hour has passed after we've entered. We've found small traces of aluminium but not enough to build an entire helicopter.
Two hours have passed after we've entered... We found the holy grail. The Holy Grail of metals.
We hit a dead end as well but the dead end contained all the things we could've hoped to get.
Ion's detected aluminium, tin, zinc, copper, silver, iron and a slight bit of gold as well.
We've got over half of the materials we need but we still need more copper and aluminium.
I start mining with the others and Ion uses his laser to cut through the stone surrounding the iron pockets to 'mine' them as well.
We mine for at least an hour and a half without any breaks and there is just a massive pile of ores in the middle of the area we are mining.
Suddenly we hear somebody running towards us and when I look at the tunnel I see one of the people I sent to the Koro mine.
"We've found what you call 'Oil'! The leader sent me to immediatly give you this information after we found the pocket of it!" (Explorer)
"Ion." (Hayden)
Me and Ion immediatly head off to the Koro mining site.

8 473Shura Saga: Burn and Slay - Cultivation, Lightning Bolts, Monsters galore
“If it lives, we can slay it. And then burn it, just to make sure it doesn’t come back from the dead,” she said. “...does that happen often?” he asked. “Slaying? Yeah, duh? It’s what we're here to do in the first place, dummy.” “I meant the coming back from the dead part.” “Eh. More often than you’d like.” “Great. Just great.” Walking away from a life drenched in senseless bloodshed, Raksha embarks on the Warrior’s Pilgrimage. In doing so, he strives to hone his mind, spirit, and martial skills, and he swears to abide by the Ancient Code’s tenets of honor and compassion. He definitely did not expect to run into Sadea, a powerful sorceress who loves silk, jewels, and killing things for fun and profit. Neither did he expect to be stuck with her as they fight murderous mutants, vicious monsters, and demons. She calls their entanglement a beautiful partnership, but it’s the last thing he needs. Or so he thinks.
8 122Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
