Chapter 829: Tracking

There is no map for this vast unknown mountain range.

The Maya natives do not possess map-making techniques, and even if they did, they wouldn't dare venture into these mountains to create a map. The Northerners are also exploring this mountain range for the first time, so the map provided to Robb by the Fugitive Knight does not include this mountain range.

Without a map to activate his "Mineral Search" cheat skill, Robb's ability to find minerals is actually quite weak, inferior to that of an ordinary miner. In other words, he's just an average gamer in terms of mining skills, as everyone understands.

Looking at the map in his hand, Robb noticed that the red dot representing his location had reached the edge of the map. The mountain range ahead was not drawn on the map, which made him a bit annoyed. "Let me tell you, I hate games without maps."

Suofa knew he was being eccentric again and couldn't help but laugh. "We can just draw the map as we go. At least the areas we've traveled through will have a map."

"But that's too slow," Robb said. "Don't mess around. We're only a few dozen people, and mapping the terrain takes a lot of time. If we were to draw the map as we go, we wouldn't make much progress even in a few days. Let's take a shortcut and catch up with the Northerners who passed by here yesterday. They are a large exploration team of several hundred people, and they do everything more conveniently. They must be mapping as they go and probably have geological experts. While they search for minerals, we can... hehehe..."

The Fugitive Knight beside them couldn't help but smile wryly. After all, he was originally from the North, and hearing such a conversation made him feel a bit weird. He spoke up, "Isn't this assuming that the opponents are idiots? What if they're intelligent or gentlemen and don't charge at us with weapons?"

Robb laughed, "If they don't charge at us, it means they're open to communication, and I'll negotiate with them!"

The Fugitive Knight had some doubts. "If the other party is willing to negotiate, would you really negotiate and mine together? Isn't it about forcibly occupying high-quality ore veins through strength?"

Elsie chimed in with a smile, "Exactly! If Godfather is willing, he can conquer the Kingdom of Gran, Norma, the Desert Kingdom, all in the blink of an eye. And when that happens, he can order his subordinates to mine these ores. So, negotiating with Norma to mine together is no different for him than mining with the Gran or Maya people. As long as they don't act foolishly, he definitely won't forcefully seize anything."

The Fugitive Knight remained silent.

He had heard about Robb's battle against the Black Dragon, and if it was true, he indeed possessed the power to conquer the world. Upon further reflection, if one person had the ability to conquer the world, there was no need to fight over a mine with others. What was there to gain by doing so? If one wanted to seize something, they could simply conquer the opponent's kingdom and be done with it.

"Let's go. We need to find them first," Robb asked, "Do we have anyone skilled in tracking in our team?"
