Chapter 830: Titansteel

Chapter 830: Titansteel

Half a day later, Robb and his team finally caught up with the people from Norma.

However, they were unaware of Robb and his group's presence. In areas with good visibility, Robb could use his scouting skills to monitor them from a distance. In areas with poor visibility, the Eagle Warriors in Robb's group could silently follow Normas people through the jungle.

Due to the cruel colonial policies of the people of Norma towards the Maya people, none of the Eagle Warriors were willing to help them. In the rainforest, during heavy rain, it was easy for Robb and his group to secretly tail them without being noticed.

The Norma people were indeed well-prepared. Among their force of five hundred people, there were not only skilled combat troops but also many magicians, priests, and experts in surveying mineral resources, finding rare herbs, and cultivating crops. Wherever they went, they conducted thorough searches, creating detailed maps and marking various resources on them.

Using his scouting skills, Robb discreetly observed the maps they were drawing from a distance. He found that the maps were of excellent quality, depicting mountains, rivers, and forests in great detail. Even the types of trees in the forests were labeled. The recently discovered iron mine was also marked on the map. Most interestingly, they had also discovered a coal mine nearby, which was also indicated on the map.

Robb was secretly delighted. The Queen hesitated to send the steel warships to the coast of the New Continent because there was no coal there. But now they had discovered a coal mine, and there was an iron mine not far away. If they combined the coal and iron resources, they could easily establish a supply station on this side of the New Continent.

Of course, this coal mine was discovered by the Kingdom of Norma, and Robb intended to be polite and not take it unless they forced him to.

The group secretly followed them for two days. On this day, during noon, the fierce wind and rain persisted. Suddenly, the Norma people ahead erupted into loud cheers. Over five hundred people were cheering together, their voices piercing through the silent jungle, overpowering even the sound of the wind and rain.

Robb knew they must have found something valuable, so he quickly used his scouting skills to look ahead.

Coincidentally, the place where they were located was a relatively barren rocky mountain with hardly any trees. Therefore, Robb's line of sight was not obstructed by the forest, and he could clearly see the environment where they were. The mountain was bare, devoid of trees and even grass.

There were only peculiar-looking rocks of a grayish-white color. The Norma people were jumping around on a large grayish-white stone, showing great excitement.

Although Robb was far away, the scouting skill provided him with a clear view, and he recognized it at a glance. This grayish-white stone was a highly valuable ore called Titansteel.

Strictly speaking, Titansteel was similar to Saronite, both being around level 80 ores. However, Titansteel was much rarer than Saronite, and the products made from it were stronger than those made from Saronite.

Moreover, judging from the jubilant appearance of the people of Norma, this ore didn't cause the uncomfortable sensation that Saronite did. It was a type of ore that even ordinary people could mine and utilize.

"A giant!"

"Isn't that a Mountain Giant?"

"Nonsense! Since when did Mountain Giants have human heads?"

"It's not a Lava Giant or an Arcanite Giant..."

"This is... a Titan Giant!"

"Oh, fuck, it really is a Titan Giant."

Robb shrugged his shoulders. "No wonder there's Titansteel in this place. Turns out there are Titan Giants here."

Robb and his group were joking and chatting with the spirit of spectators, but the people of Norma didn't feel so good. After locking eyes with the Titan Giants for a full five seconds, someone among the people of Norma was the first to shout, "Titan Giants! Fuck! Everyone, prepare for battle!"

"Shouldn't we run away?"

"Just two Titan Giants? We're not afraid. We have five hundred people!"
