Mining (85)

Broly left his ship, dropping off the fifth batch of Fire Ki crystals and headed back to the mines, flying through the night sky.

'You still need to go to the Lightning Tribe mines! And ask about the Super Lightning Crystal!' Yami reminded Broly.

'What about the Super Fire Crystal or the Super Ice Crystals?' Broly asked curiously, surely the other tribes would have their own super crystals that were of equal quality.

'What about them? Compared to the Super Lightning Crystal their cheap knock offs!' Yami said convincingly.

'I'll do it after I head to the Ice Tribe' Broly said, doing a loop de loop in the middle of the air just because he could.

'Alright then' Yami said, retreating back to his little corner.

Broly picked up speed, flying much faster than before.

'Ki sense!'

A much thinner wave of energy was released from his body, slowly traversing the empty plains of Mentels. Broly had slowly been training his ability to sense ki, now able to detect everything on the Planet. Although he had to focus to actually find anything specific.

It was a small but important ability to have.

He closed his eyes and flew through the air, positioning his body for the descent into the mines.

WSH!

The air around Broly crackled as he stopped suddenly, doing a front-flip and landing on the floor of the mines smoothly.

'Definitely a cheat code,' Broly thought, forming a long pickaxe in his right hand.

Broly could detect the positions of the ki crystals in the mines, meaning that none of his strikes were wasted.

He diligently worked at the earth, the reduced gravity meaning that with little strength he could make his way through the rock with little to no resistance and he would always work around the crystal, making sure it wouldn't crack under his restrained but still powerful blows.

'It would probably be faster if I went Super Saiyan but this is valuable stamina training' Broly thought patiently.

To Broly, everything was a form of training, even down to the way he walked and talked to people. While it may not seem like it, he had invested extensive amounts of time in himself and so he put a lot of thought into what he did and said.

Broly continued to work, mining away in a few hours more than the Fire Tribe had mined in a few centuries, his freakish strength allowing him to plough through the soft rock with ease.

Broly smiled as a familiar tired sensation settled in his muscles, one thing he noticed after a while was that when stamina training there was no feeling of 'getting better'. While his output steadily increased, there was no ease on his body which after a while began to strain under the rigorous work Broly was doing.

He could slow down but where was the fun in that?

(A few more hours later)

"Queen Drizzle! Mr Broly is approaching!"

Queen Drizzle smiled wryly, sitting up in her throne as she heard the news.

She had a feeling Broly would come later in the night as she had invited him and he had yet to appear. A worried expression settled on her face as she remembered the injury report she had seen at the end of the war.

Broly was extremely dangerous.

Ice City was more or less the same as Fire City, the only notable differences were that crystals were a light snow blue instead of the warm red and that most of the structures were made of ice in addition to the crystal that lined the buildings.

Broly approached the gate at the foot of the city which immediately opened for him the second he touched the land. Broly was approached by a short orange-skinned man with a thick red beard that hid his features.

"Please follow me," he said quickly, immediately turning around to lead the way to Ice Queen Castle.

'It seems that they have a connecting road as well'

Broly looked around, seeing the blue icy structures around him. He was able to feel that it was much colder than Fire City and saw little stalagmites forming on the edge of the buildings.

'Isn't it funny how the Fire people are blue and Ice people are orange?' Yami said, calling out the strange pattern.

"It's probably just a coincidence," Broly said aloud mistakenly.

"Hmmmm?" the orange-skinned man hastily turned around to look at Broly.

"Oh no! It's nothing," Broly said waving his hands dismissively.

"Hmmm," the orange-skinned man shrugged and turned around.

'You actually spoke out loud? Numbskull!'

'Shut up'

The short man in front of Broly opened the gates to the castle and quickly disappeared, vanishing into one of the corridors.

Queen Drizzle was seated on her throne, the room almost identical to the Fire Tribe throne room with a simple palette swap. The Queen was wearing a thin white nightdress that hung off of her body loosely.

'Gyat! The Queen is packing packing as well!' Yami exclaimed.

Broly stared at Queen Drizzle's breasts confusedly.

How did she manage to fit them in her armour? They were way too voluptuous for one to not notice yet she used some form of sorcery to compress them on the battlefield.

Queen Drizzle was immediately taken aback by the strange alien who examined her breasts upon entry. It wasn't an uncommon occurrence but she hadn't expected it from the savage beast who crippled her army.

Queen Drizzle coughed loudly in a professional manner.

Broly's eyes were instantly drawn up, seeing Queen Drizzle's clear orange skin and large curly hair.

'Yeah, she's going on the list, as long as I live I humbly swear to make you sleep with that woman' Yami said, issuing a challenge on himself.

'Thank you teacher Yami' Broly said in acceptance, submitting to Yami's wisdom.

"Good Evening Mr Broly," Queen Drizzle said politely.

"Just Broly is fine," Broly said calmly.

"Okay then, Broly, my assistant will take you to the mines in just a moment but may I ask you a question first?" Queen Drizzle asked softly.

'Yes, but we need appropriate compensation! Pay us back with your body!'

Broly ignored Yami's words.

"No problem," Broly said simply.

"How did you come across this planet and do you know of anyone else who may be coming?" Queen Drizzle said worriedly.

If hordes on hordes of freakish monsters like Broly appeared on Planet Mentels, there really was no future at all.

"I came across this planet by pure chance and there were some people who landed here but I helped them get away," Broly said honestly.

Queen Drizzle's brows furrowed.

'Some aliens actually arrived?'

"Who?"

"The Frieza Force?"

Queen Drizzle squinted.

"Who?"

"Space bullies, they probably would have either tried to kill you or enslave your people," Broly said, thinking critically.

Frieza and his lackeys were undoubtedly the most widely spread integalactic degenerates in recorded history.

"I see...and you killed them?" Queen Drizzle said slowly.

"No, I fixed their ships so they could fly away,"

'Fixed' Yami said sardonically.

'She doesn't need to know everything'

"Ok...I've changed my mind, I'll personally accompany you to the mines," Queen Drizzle said, waving her hand causing a snow-white dress to form around her.
