Chapter 751 Reclaiming the Gold Mine

Ma Yun transcribed these spells into her spell book.

Gao Fei looked at classmate Xiao Ma copying books, and once again regretted that he was not a "copycat" now, and could only wait until the next time he formed a team to come in and use these spells for free.

After searching for the loot, the three people left the empty castle, took the lion and gas with them, and took the mechanical horn stone to the mine.

The news of the old witch's execution has reached the mine.

When Gao Fei and the others arrived, all the Tengu overseers had already escaped, and the gold mine was occupied by the dwarf miners.

As soon as everyone stepped out of the cabin, they were warmly cheered by the miners, who regarded them as the saviors of liberating Winkie Township.

"Vita! Nick! My poor friends, we finally meet again!"

The lion found two familiar figures in the celebrating crowd, ran over excitedly, and hugged the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman one by one.

At this time, Gao Fei and others received a system prompt.

Scarecrow Vita and Tin Man Nick rejoined this adventurous team.

"Of course it's good that old friends are back in the team, but why haven't you received the reminder to complete the main plot of this chapter?" Ma Yun muttered again, "Brother Fei! Sister Feng! The old witch has been eliminated, and the residents of Wenji Township have also been killed. Now that we are free, are there any tasks we have yet to complete?”

Before Gao Fei could answer, Ma Yun received the task prompt. After reading it, her face showed surprise.

"That's right! I almost forgot, the reason why we came all the way to Winky Township was because we were entrusted by Master Oz, the lord of Emerald City, to assassinate Theodora!"

"Now that the assassination mission has been completed, the system prompts us to return to the Emerald City and report to Master Oz."

"After that, it's Master Oz's turn to fulfill his promise and cast a spell to teleport me back to my hometown!"

Jiang Feng saw Ma Yun's excited look and couldn't bear to ruin her good mood, so he said to Gao Fei in the private chat channel: "Xiaoyun has good intentions, but unfortunately she may be disappointed again this time."

"You're saying that Master Oz will probably not fulfill his original promise?" Gao Fei asked in a low voice.

Jiang Feng nodded slightly.

"Didn't I check out the original work of "The Wizard of Oz" in the library before? By the way, I reviewed the plot of the original work. The heroine returns to the Emerald City, and there are many twists and turns waiting for her later. The game module is adapted from the original work. , I’m afraid it won’t be smooth sailing.”

"I feel the same way." Gao Fei said thoughtfully, "In fact, even if we don't refer to the original plot and just start from the game's own settings, the story will not come to an end so quickly."

"After finishing this chapter, the heroine has only reached level 9. If she goes home right away and welcomes the finale, how can she level up to level 3?"

"Is there a possibility that after returning to her hometown, the heroine embarks on an adventure again for some reason and continues to fight monsters and upgrade?" Jiang Feng guessed.

Goofy smiled and shook his head.

"This way of thinking, in the jargon of our online writers, is called 'broken' or 'unfinished'."

"If you think about it, the title of this story is called "The Wizard of Oz." The stage of the story is in the fairy wilderness. The main line of the story is that the heroine finally returns to her hometown after going through hardships and dangers."

"We all know that the creation of classical dramas follows the 'three unities'. Although modern screenwriting techniques no longer strictly follow classical rules, they also pay attention to the coordination and unity of 'story time', 'story stage' and 'story main line', otherwise The script will become disjointed and inconsistent.”

"If the heroine is smoothly sent back to her hometown by Master Oz, the stage of the story is no longer the Fairy Wilderness. No matter how exciting the subsequent plot is, it has nothing to do with the main line of 'going home' and has become another story. story."

"You can call it a sequel, call it fanfiction, but it's not The Wizard of Oz anymore."

"Hearing what you said, I suddenly remembered that there are many sequels to the original work of "The Wizard of Oz", but no matter how exciting or influential they are, they are far from being able to compare with the original work." Jiang Feng said with emotion.

"In fact, this kind of phenomenon is very common. Regardless of novels, movies or animations, as long as a popular work still has commercial value to be extracted, sequels will often be released one after another to create a 'money tree'. As for the quality of the sequels, And reputation... there are very few that can maintain the level of the first generation.”

Goofy sighed.

"In fact, many times, the author himself is unwilling to continue the work, but there is no way. Commercial creation in the face of the market is a business. No one should pretend to be arrogant. The most real thing is to make money."

While the two were chatting, classmate Xiao Ma ran over happily.

"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! I just made a big deal!"

"Oh? Xiaoyun, who are you doing business with?"

"Mr. Gas, and the 'Wenji Township Mining Association' that took over the gold mine!" Ma Yun patted the armor plate of the mechanical corner stone, "I just made an agreement with the miners to sell this mechanical corner stone to Wenji Township Mining Association, used to mine ore, priced at 5,000 gold coins!”

When Jiang Feng heard this, he and Gao Fei looked at each other.

"The richest man...Although I have always called you the richest man, I never realized before that you really have some business talent."

Gao Fei laughed and teased his classmates.

"You can sell a construct as powerful as the Mechanical Corner Stone as soon as you say it. Don't you feel any pain at all?"

"I feel bad... I still feel a little bit sad!"

Ma Yun stroked the steel shell of the mechanical corner stone, with a little guilt in her eyes, as if she was blaming herself for betraying her companions who fought side by side.

"But I can't do anything about it even though I feel bad!"

"The structure of the mechanical hornstone is too special. It can only move in soft sand. In the Emerald City area with dense jungles and rivers, this giant squid can't move at all."

"Sell it now, at least I can get some money. Otherwise, how can I transport it back to Emerald City?"

"Of course what you said makes sense. 5,000 gold coins is a reasonable price. And with this income, it's just enough to make enough money to build the sand golem, but..."

Gao Fei pondered for a moment and then asked Ma Yun : "Did you only sell the mechanical cornerstone, or did you sell the clockwork module as well?"

"Brother Fei! I'm not stupid, how could I sell the clockwork module together!" Ma Yun rolled her eyes at him, "The cost of an energy clockwork alone is as high as 10,000 gold coins. Who would do such a loss-making business!"

"What are you going to do with the disassembled clockwork module?"

"Haha! I installed the disassembled 'energy clockwork', 'fireball clockwork' and 'dispelling hair clockwork' on Toto. Toto will be able to cast spells in the future!" Ma Yun said proudly.

Gao Fei looked back at the mechanical dog and complained angrily: "It's worthy of being the dog raised by the wizard's wife. Tsk tsk, such treatment, such value..."

"Brother is a famous detective after all, but all his clothes are not as valuable as a dog. This is really... How embarrassing!"
