Xavier Adams looked at the populated panel and felt refreshed.
He couldn't help it.
No matter how many times he experienced it, it still made his gamer's blood boil.
Not to mention, it will be harder to gain jobs and skills in later stages.
After making sure that everything here was as should be, Xavier Adams made his way to the mines.
His master Bernard might not get along with them but that did not mean that it was a pointless job.
Xavier Adams was eying it eagerly.
The first order profession of [Miner] might be looked down upon, but once it upgrades to fifth order, even it would be on par with a divine profession like [Dungeon Master].
You have to know that the job [Dungeon Master] allows the user to create a dungeon anywhere as long as they have enough mana.
Taking into account that the least level 10 dungeon is worth a trillion gold coins, you can imagine just how lucrative such users are.
But in Infinite Frontier, there are very few who can acquire such a job.
Let alone have a high enough level and stats to support it.
But for Xavier Adams, this was an innate job that was even easier to use that a fireball spell thanks to the divine blessing [Infinite Dungeon].
With this blessing, he could create any dungeon, anywhere without any limit whatsoever.
All he had to do was have an accurate image of what the dungeon should be and the rest will sort itself out.
What's even more amazing is that all dungeons he creates are connected.
In essence, each dungeon can be regarded as a part of a single larger entity and Xavier Adams can do a whole bunch of things with it.
To compare such with a fifth order profession even without a relevant divine blessing….
…
There are countless mines in the Endless Rock Range which produce valuable minerals and metals for many different parties.
The Etherian Kingdom in the west and the Altahaugr Empire in the east for instance can maintain their position as first among the other nations because of their access to such vast resources.
The demon army which resides to the north of the Black Forest also launches multiple raids in hopes of seizing more resources for themselves.
Well, the mines under the Blackrock Village were not so valuable, but they do manage to supply enough metals and minerals to meet the demand of the district under Count Brightstone.
Xavier Adams made his way toward one of the mines where Bernard ought to be visiting and navigated through it with great familiarity.
This was one of the larger mines and it mainly produced Iron and Steel which were the main materials for most of the things produced in the workshop.
Xavier Adams made sure to avoid as much attention as possible but there were a few he met along the way.
Good thing there was nothing more than some greeting and small talk.
Had he met Bernard and his daughters…
He made his way to an abandoned duct and started fabricating the tools he would need to acquire the job.
A pick axe and safety helmets were a must. Some gloves and a source of light.
It did not require much.
After preparations, Xavier Adams found some scarce ore vein and got right to work.
Digging out the ore is just a small part of it.
He had to sort out the ore by quality and quantity and fill at least one cart.
It took him an hour and a half.

…
"*Phew* that took some work."
Xavier Adams wiped the nonexistent sweat as the tools he had fabricated disappeared from existence.
He still had to be careful about some of these things at this level.
But that would not be an issue in a while.
Xavier Adams called up the panel and looked at the newly acquired jobs and skills.

The job Miner directly upgraded to level max and now just a casual swing of a pick axe can clear and mineral vein.
And with the job, he automatically acquired the skill [Pyrotechnics].
This skill was in fact explosion magic but at a more refined level.
For instance, while explosion magic mainly relies on fire, Pyrotechnics can cause explosions from fire, air, water… by manipulating temperature, pressure, and density.
With this skill, a simple fireball spell can turn into a plasma ball with thousands of Celsius degrees.
Xavier Adams could come up with countless ways of using this skill.
The second order [Refiner] could…
