Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 3485

The crisp clang of metal striking stone echoed sharply through the deep cavern.

A moment ago, the smug expressions of the nearby mining merchants were brimming with mockery, but now their faces stiffened in disbelief.

"T-This… How is this even possible?"

As seasoned miners, they couldn't fail to recognize the unmistakable sound of striking iron ore. And finding iron ore within just over 30 feet? It meant one thing—there was undoubtedly a rich vein beneath their feet!

Angus' face lit up with a wide grin, his excitement barely contained. "Matteo, you've got a keen eye! You were absolutely right—there's iron here!" he exclaimed with a guffaw.

Where there was one chunk of iron, there was bound to be more.

Sure enough, the rhythmic sound of pickaxes striking ore grew more frequent, resonating through the cavern like a triumphant anthem.

Before long, a worker climbed up the rope, his face a mask of astonishment. "Mr. Lopez, I've been mining for over a decade, but I've never seen iron ore this pure and this massive before," he said, his voice trembling slightly. "It's so big, we're practically standing on top of a colossal piece of it right now."

The worker's words made Angus beam with unrestrained joy. A vein this large could only mean one thing—an extraordinary haul!

He turned to the group of merchants who had been jeering moments earlier, their smugness now thoroughly wiped away. "Care to take a look for yourselves, gentlemen?" he asked with a wry smile.

"No need! We'll be taking our leave!"

The man with the sharp, almost feminine features felt his face burn as though he had been slapped in the cheek. Without another word, he spun on his heel and stormed off.

The others who had joined in the mockery hastily followed, their retreat as clumsy as their earlier sneers had been confident.

"Mr. Lopez, don't forget to throw us a bone when you strike it rich!" one merchant called out, feigning camaraderie as he departed.
