TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 473: Other groups mining the mine

"Hawk River, we are here. This place is the entrance to the mine." The group stopped in front of a steel door.

The appearance of the door was common and without any kind of spell, but that was just its appearance.

"Is this door protected by some spells?" Liu Yang felt some fluctuations in energy and came to that conclusion.

"Yes. This door has some protective spells to prevent someone from the other three groups from going through it. We don't want them to find our way." Kafei explained.

The group traveled for about two or three days through the corridors and tunnels until they reached the main mine dug by the former members of the groups.

The mine was like any other, but it was poorly lit and the paths were narrow because it was difficult to dig hard rocks underground. So the path only had space for one person to walk at a time.

"Hawk River, we finally arrived." Kafei pointed to the excavated site.

The place was a big hole in the basement and very bright because of the precious stones that emit natural light. When the lights are reflected on the other gems, a brilliant light show can be seen.

The scene was magnificent and beautiful.

"This place is beautiful. Kafei, how big is this mine? At least the part where you mine." Liu Yang looked at the large mine and saw that several sites had already been excavated, but it was not very deep because, with each meter that was excavated, the rocks got harder.

So it was difficult to dig very deep holes to look for rare minerals.

"Hawk River, the place with the most precious minerals is on that side. Usually, we go there when there are not many people from other groups to cause problems for us"

"I see Let's go there, but to avoid an accident. I need you to do me a favor" Liu Yang understood that something wrong could happen, so he needed to minimize the amount of danger.

"What do we need to do?" The women were curious about what they needed to do for Liu Yang.

A favor asked of him would not be easy.

"I need you to get inside my dwelling ring. I will explore this mine and when the time comes, I will take you away" Liu Yang replied. He would mine in deeper locations, so it would be very dangerous for women to be outside.

If an ambush happens, some of them may die. Liu Yang did not want this to happen.

"Dwelling ring? Hawk River, what is this? " Women have never heard of such things before.

As the group was very poor, they never had a chance to see more expensive and rare things.

"Have you never seen a dwelling ring before?" Liu Yang was surprised by those words.

But after thinking about it, he realized that the group did not have many connections with powerful people. So it was normal for them to never hear those two words.

"Not." The women responded at the same time.

"Then you will be surprised about what you are going to see. Inside my dwelling ring, there are four maids, they will help answer your questions and doubts" Liu Yang played Kafei first. She didn't even have time to respond before disappearing.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The women were alarmed by this scene. None of them understood what had happened.

How did Kafei disappear?

"You don't have to worry about that. I sent it to my dwelling ring. She is in a special house. When you enter the house, you will understand" Liu Yang did not give the group of women time to argue, he just touched each one of them and sent them inside the dwelling ring.

"Now is the time to explore this mine to see if there are any rare minerals like those two hiding places" Liu Yang murmured. He started walking towards the deepest parts of the mine.

Clasha gave him a map of the mine, but the map was generic and didn't have much information. So he needed to explore the mine to see if there was anything of value.

At the same time, Liu Yang remained focused to feel the precious ores using the Stone Sense.

A few days later

"My harvest inside the mine is not bad. I got many rare and interesting minerals after several days of walking towards the deepest parts of the mine." Liu Yang murmured as he walked through the wide, broken tunnels of the mine.

After several days of wandering in search of minerals, his Stone Sense skill detected several types of rare and precious minerals, but many were common and of little value.

clang clang clang

Metal sounds crashing into something very hard are heard, but they were low, which means it was too far away.

"It looks like there are people ahead" Liu Yang heard the sound of picks hitting hard rocks.

The noise means that there were people inside the mine beside him.

Walking for a few more minutes, Liu Yang found an illuminated spot, but it was not because of the lights emitted by the mineral lights. The light was from lamps.

Looking furtively, Liu Yang saw a large group mining at the site. About a thousand people trying to break the stones with pickaxes and several dozen walking back and forth as they pushcarts along the tracks.

Each was dirty with dust. Their clothes were old and torn. None of them had chains around their necks, only on their arms and legs.

This shows that none of them were slaves, they were just people captured and used as slaves to mine the crystals.

Some people wearing steel armor walk and look at the workers with arrogant looks as if they are seeing only a group of ordinary, worthless people.

"Faster!!!! You need to work faster !!!!" One of them shouted.

pah !!!! pahhh !!!!!

The sound of the cracking whips is heard.

Nobody had the courage to complain, they could only work faster.

"Work hard. From now on, you will have to work harder because that group of idiots called Kings of the Iron Valley has ended. We are taking their area. So you better not take it easy." One of the soldiers shouted.

"I see It seems that the news about the destruction of the group of the Kings of the Iron Valley has been spread. So there is no problem if I steal these people" Liu Yang was excited to steal and kill these people.

The only problem is that Liu Yang doesn't know how many people are on the other side, but it didn't matter much to him.

The easiest way to deal with everyone was to release their sleeping poison to make everyone sleep. But before that, he would try to probe the other side.
