Chapter 5 - First Time Mining

Matthew left the elevator with an expression of awe. He looked at his surroundings and he was very happy. Other than the elevator everything around him was just like what he saw in video games.

The ground, walls, and ceiling were all made from rock and some torches lined the walls and dimly lit up the hallway. It was just like how the old Dungeon Crawler games he played portrayed a mine.

Matthew looked at the wall next to him and saw a Pickaxe and Miner Helmet which he quickly grabbed and put on.

[Copper Pickaxe equipped]

[Simple Miners Helmet equipped]

'Hmm, it seems like what I put on is equipped automatically. . . This is AWESOME!!! Thank you, God, you made this exactly like some of the old games I played.'

[Equipment]

[Copper Pickaxe(Decent)]

Made With Decent Copper Ore

Mining: 1

Description: A Pickaxe made from Copper. Although there is no impurities sine the ore used was a simple ore it doesn't have much functionality.

[Simple Miners Helmet]

Skill: Light- when turned on it will illuminate the surrounding area so that you can see.

Description: A simply made helmet with a light crystal molded to that can generate light so you can see.

The items Matthew got were lowest of the low but that should be expected when you are just starting. In a game, you are supposed to get better items as you progress and the game gets harder. It probably is going by those standards.

Holding the Copper Pickaxe in his hand and turning on the light crystal on the Simple Miners Helmet Matthew began walking down the hallway that led away from the elevator.

Matthew walked for about a minute before he saw the first Ore Vein. With the light from the Simple Miners Helmet, he quickly saw the vein of orange like ore. Upon looking at the Ore Vein Matthew saw a glimmer on the Vein so he took the Copper Pickaxe and swung it at the Glimmer he saw.

"Clang!"

After making a metallic thud of the Pickaxe coming in contact with the Ore Vein there was a visible difference as it cracked a small bit. Seeing that he was making a bit of progress Matthew swung the pickaxe again. It hit the glimmer and it broke that part of the Ore Vein.

[Gained 1 Copper Ore(Decent)]

[Gained 2 Shard of Skill Dice(1-6)]

Ore from the Vein fell on the floor and Matthew picked it up and placed it into his Inventory. It took up one slot from his Inventory leaving him with 9 more slots.

Once the ore fell the glimmer faded away and there was no more or on the wall to mine. He got a piece of Copper Ore that was at Decent Quality so it was okay. He also got two dice shards that if you have 6 you can make a stat dice which is the effect of the Dice Roll skill.

Gaining the Ore and Dice Shards Matthew continued to walk along the Mine looking for the Ore Veins.

He walked around the Mine for two hours before going back to the elevator to call it a day. Swinging a heavy pickaxe all day is very tiring more so for Matthew since it was his first-day mining. He entered the elevator and clicked the Floor 0 button.

A screen popped up in front of Matthew the second he pressed the button.

Matthew saw the screen and was filled with delight. Although he already knew of all these gains he was extremely happy that when he finished it had a cool screen that read off what he got to him, he thought the feel was so cool and was very happy on how it corresponded with some of his favorite games.

If the other miners found out that Matthew had gotten 3 Epic Quality Copper oOre out of 20 Ore Veins they would cough up blood till they fainted.

For any other miner, it would be a pipe dream to get 3 Epic Ores out of 20 Veins, but Matthew has the Mining Incorporated System behind him.
