Master Tongtian

Chapter 100 Going deep into ‘hell’ (44)

"Ding Ding~~Dang Dang! Ding Ding~~Dang Dang!"

In the dark mine, a group of beastly townspeople were digging hard rocks with mining picks.

Nandix patrolled back and forth in the mine while constantly yelling to correct the miners' mining methods.

"Don't dig like that! You'll break the vein, you idiot!"

"Dig along the grain of the stone! Yes! That's it, it's labor-saving and fast!"

"You lazy fool! Don't even think about being lazy! Get up now!"

After a tour, Nandix returned to the rear with a thirsty mouth, fanning his face with his palms, and complaining.

"These miners are so stupid. The only advantage they have is their good physical strength, but this is also earned by spending their lifespan."

Xialina frowned when she heard this: "Can't you cancel your animal transformation technique?"

These lycanthropes were all residents of Yuehui Town and were of the same race. She could ignore one or two of them, but it was appalling that the entire town had been transformed into lycanthropes.

If she hadn't needed the ice dwarf's power temporarily, she would have tortured him for a solution.

Nandix shook his head: "You should know that this is a divine spell, a power given by our gods. So once it transforms into a beast, it is impossible to undo it."

Xialina was a little distracted: "So many magical arts?"

In comparison, the last time the Golden God bestowed magic on such a large scale was three hundred years ago.

Nandix misunderstood her meaning and thought she was wondering about the source of the magic.

He chuckled: "Thousands of years ago, your Golden God did possess a unique and great power, but after so many years, others are not fools, even if they just look at it, they can understand it, hehe."

Sharina's face turned slightly pale when she heard this, but fortunately she was wearing a mask, so Nandix didn't notice this.

He thought to himself and said: "However, there are only a few true gods who can master great power. Most gods are still the same as they were thousands of years ago. For example, the one hidden in the mine, I feel that he has no tricks."

But Xialina shook her head slightly: "No matter what, he is still a god and cannot be underestimated."

"You are right. It cannot be underestimated. After all, God has mastered a huge power that is far beyond the reach of us mortals."

Nandix suddenly looked around for a while and asked curiously: "Where is that scary kid? Why didn't you see him?"

Speaking of Rosen, Sharina finally found some confidence.

"Rosen not only has great strength, but also an outstanding mind. He can think of anything you can think of."

"So, I advise you not to think wrongly, lest you risk your life."

Nandix was exposed and smiled awkwardly: "I don't have any evil intentions. You are worrying too much, madam."

"Humph!" Sharina smiled coldly.

At this moment, there was a sudden "crash" sound from the front, followed by a gust of damp and cold wind.

Nandix was overjoyed: "It's dug out! It's dug out!"

He ran over again and shouted loudly: "Quick, quick, quick! Push the wood up! Don't waste the stones! Yes! Push them all up, be careful of vibrations!"

Under his command, the beastly townspeople quickly fixed the mine tunnel.

Xia Lina was also very energetic. She picked up a torch and walked slowly forward. She didn't stop until she reached the point where she couldn't go any further, and carefully looked at the entrance of the cave in front of her.

The entrance to the cave is still very small, only about half a meter high, but it is being rapidly widened. But behind the entrance, there is a dense darkness, nothing can be seen, and it seems that even the light of fire cannot penetrate it.

It's like there's hell behind it.

Xia Lina's heart trembled slightly and she couldn't help but pray secretly: "God~ Please guide me~ Please give me the courage to move forward~"

After about an hour, the entrance to the cave was completely fixed. Nandix ran back and said excitedly: "I successfully helped you dig the mine tunnel. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise."

Sharina shook her head: "Nandix, if I remember correctly, my promise is to help us deal with the evil god together, not just to dig through the external passage."

Nan Dix was immediately furious: "Damn it! You didn't say that at the beginning! You just said to dig through the mine!"

"Okay, then I'll make it clear that I regret it."

"Not only do I want you to help me dig through the mine, I also want you to help me deal with the evil god together with these beast-turned-townships."

Nandix roared angrily: "Despicable! Shameless! Just like your god!"

Xia Lina let the other person scold her until he got tired of scolding her.

She sighed: "I know what I did is unethical, and I also know that if I force you to help, you may not be able to fight with all your strength."

"But calm down first and listen to me tell the whole truth. After listening to it, if you still insist on leaving, then you can leave."

Seeing her like this, Nandix took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Say it!"

Xialina whispered: "The name of this evil god is the King of Neverwinter, and his true form is a giant tree."

"It is an extremely cruel ancient god. His roots travel through ancient battlefields and draw strength from the blood of fallen warriors. It not only absorbs the vitality of the physical body, but also absorbs the souls of the warriors. And if a war breaks out between our two races, Then the souls and bodies of the warriors from our two tribes will all become nutrients for this evil god."

Nandix's expression changed: "Are you telling the truth?"

"This is what the ancient history recorded in the temple says."

"You are the Beast King and the priest of your clan. If necessary, you should be able to contact your Frost King. You might as well ask him, maybe he can tell you the answer."

"Hmph~ I was just about to seek revelation from our God."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to the corner of the mine, knelt down on the ground with a bang, and held an animal bone pendant around his neck tightly with both hands, and then fell into silence.

About ten minutes later, he stood up and came back, the anger on his face fading.

“You are lucky that God allows me to continue walking with you.”

"Very good! Time is urgent. Now that the mine tunnel has been dug, let's get ready!"

After saying that, Sharina took out the whistle and blew it hard.

Nandix also whistled and began to summon the white wolf.

After a while, the Silver Moon Rangers headed by Captain Hamill, five exorcist warriors headed by Fili, and Rosen all rushed over.

Everyone was fully armed and in high spirits, showing that they were fully prepared.

The white wolf is also here.

During the two days of digging in the mine, it ate large chunks of meat every day. Not only did the injury on its nose heal, but its entire body also grew stronger.

Xia Lina looked at everyone, briefly talked about the continued cooperation, and then looked at Rosen: "Mage, how are you? Have you had enough rest?"

Rosen smiled slightly, his eyes shining brightly under the torch: "It couldn't be better."

He made all the preparations he could.

After two days of full rest, his mana has increased a bit, and his proficiency in various spells has also been greatly improved. His spell casting ability has stabilized at five stars and is steadily moving towards six stars.

Coupled with the help of high-level wisdom potion and Silver Moon Focusing Sword, it should be able to exert huge combat effectiveness.

In the end, he quietly picked up a dozen high-quality moonstones from various mine tunnels, worth about 200 Fusa.

Of course, the Silver Moon Ranger and the Exorcist Warrior also did this, but Sharina didn't express any opinion on this.

Seeing everyone gathered, Sharina waved her hand and announced loudly.

"Very good! Light the torch and let's go!"

The group of people, except Rosen, each held a torch, lined up and walked towards the main mining area of ​​the mine.

On the way, Sharina continued: "Captain Hamill, Felin, the main task of the two of you is to protect Rosen's safety, even if it costs your lives, do you understand?"

"Yes, Ms. Sharina." The two warriors responded in unison.

Rosen observed secretly and found that Feilin's voice was a little perfunctory and he was just performing his duties step by step, but Captain Hamill had a serious look on his face, which showed that he was sincere.

‘It seems we have to count on Captain Hamill at the critical moment. ’

Xialina said to Rosen again: "On this journey, you must try to save mana. If you encounter problems, let the soldiers deal with them first. Unless you really can't deal with them, don't take action."

"good."

Sharina said to Nandix again: "Beast King, you are not my subordinate, so I will not give you orders."

"I just hope that you can always hold the same belief as us and never let our warriors become nourishment for the evil god."

Nandix nodded: "Don't worry, I will try my best."

After saying that, he whistled and shouted to the fellow beast-turned-townsmen: "Idiots, go forward! Rush to the front and explore the path for me!"

At the same time, the white wolf also howled.

There were more than 60 beastly townspeople in the mine tunnel. They immediately rushed forward and acted as fearless scouts.

This move made Xia Lina and others feel very uncomfortable, but at this moment, there was no better way.

Soon, the group passed through the newly dug hole and entered the main mine tunnel.

The cave suddenly became spacious. Most of the mine tunnels were more than five meters high and more than ten meters wide. There were natural fissures in many places, which were tens of meters high, just like underground canyons.

Walking in such a spacious underground, everyone suddenly seemed very small, and the light of the torch in their hands was as insignificant as a firefly, only able to illuminate a place five or six meters around them.

‘Woo~~Woo~~’

I don't know where the wind blew from. It was very strong, very cold, and mixed with a hint of fishy smell. It blew the flames of the oil torches and flickered, almost blowing them out.

The fire was shining so brightly that it was almost impossible to walk in the dark mine.

Fortunately, everyone was prepared.

Sharina issued a new order: "Use windproof miner's lamp."

The number of miner's lamps and lamp oil are limited. I originally planned to use torches for lighting, but now it seems that this idea is not practical.

After using the miner's lamp, the light became much more stable and everyone moved forward much faster.

After walking for more than half an hour, a scream suddenly came from the front of the animal-turned-townspeople, followed closely by a second and third scream, and then it became very dense.

Nandix shouted: "The fight is about to start! There is something ahead!"

Sharina held the steel crossbow tightly and shouted: "Get ready to fight!"
