Chapter 1158: Chapter 1158: Mine World_1
As everyone delved deeper into the mining cave, Peter Brown was also astonished at its vastness.
A manager from the Immortal Realm said, "I didn’t expect it to be so huge. This place is accessible from all directions. Where is the end of it!"
"Fortunately, we have our Positioning Treasures, or else we truly wouldn’t be able to find our way out!"
Dawn White said, "This location is just one of the many entry points belonging to our sect. Apart from this entrance, to my knowledge, there are over a hundred other entrances. Therefore, it’s not surprising that the mine connects with other places; this is also why everyone cannot figure out exactly how many miners there are inside."
Even after everyone had been running for a few hours, they still had not reached the end.
At that moment, a vast Space Domain appeared ahead, and at first glance, some items were left abandoned there.
Upon seeing this, Dawn White stopped and said to everyone, "From now on, I’ll be stationed here. This will serve as our main camp; whatever supplies you need in the future, come and exchange them here. The mining cave is a place for mining ores for the Immortal Sect. I must remind you, if you cannot deliver ores here on time each month, you will not be able to exchange for any necessities, and your performance will be marked as failing once."
Having said that, he instructed the four small teams below to continue deeper.
Indeed, after they had walked a while longer, four paths appeared.
The four managers drew lots, and Everett Kingston led Peter Brown’s team through one of the paths.
This left only seven people in Peter Brown’s small team.
Everett Kingston said to the group, "The situation we are in charge of is unclear. According to the rules, we’ll be responsible for different paths. Whenever we encounter one, someone will be assigned to it. Prepare yourselves mentally."
After walking for a while, they had gone about a thousand miles deep when another large Space Domain appeared.
At that time, Everett Kingston also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alright, my main camp will be here from now on. Come here to deliver the ores in the future."
Peter Brown was always curious about the situation inside the mining cave. Although they had gone so deep, there were no issues with visibility along the way, which he attributed to everyone being from the Immortal Body line, and thus light was of no concern to them.
Everett Kingston didn’t linger at the screen, knowing this was his territory and what was needed was to patrol. He continued to lead everyone deeper inside.
Looking at a red dot displayed on his locator, Everett Kingston said to the group, "The deeper we go, the greater the danger. Therefore, let the Energy Gathering Layer People enter the nearest caves, while those of the Peak-Ascension-Level can go to deeper places. Wilder Harrison, this cave will be under your control. Manage it yourself."
Wilder Harrison agreed and went inside.
After another two hours, James Evans was also ordered to enter a cave.
Peter knew that he would probably be next. As he walked, he observed the conditions of the caves covertly. On the surface, nothing particularly notable could be seen.
"Peter, take care when you enter this cave."
Peter agreed and headed towards the cave entrance.
After entering the cave, Peter didn’t rush in. He was now solely responsible and didn’t know the situation inside the cave. He was unsure how far it had been mined or whether there were Demon Beasts inside, so his priority was to protect himself first.
Two hours later, Peter had already summoned his blue turtle shell to protect his body before he continued onwards.
After half an hour more, Peter finally heard some noises. As he walked in, he saw five people sitting there watching him.
He stood there and also took in the appearance of these five people. It was evident from their faces that they had a detached demeanor, as if they didn’t care about his arrival.
As he looked around the cave, Peter discovered there were three branching paths.
Why weren’t they marked?
Looking at his own locator, Peter felt a sinking feeling in his heart, guessing that the person in charge here either died or had never entered.
Since the handover was so rushed, and nobody had introduced him to the situation within the cave, Peter could tell that there were complications starting to arise.
"I’ll be the Supervisor here from now on." Even if the others ignored him, Peter wasn’t bothered; everyone was naturally at odds, so there was no need to care about their opinion of him.
When they heard Peter say he was the Supervisor, the expressions of the people changed somewhat.
"Can any of you tell me how many people are here?"
Nobody answered Peter’s question.
"You’re here to trade with me, right? If you don’t answer, don’t come looking for me in the future." Peter spoke, then started to walk towards one of the paths.
"No need to check, there are only five of us left in this path," said one person who was seated.
"What did you say?" Peter was shocked as he looked towards the person. He knew that each mining path should have at least a hundred personnel, and now there were only five left?
"What happened?"
The person who spoke said, "Didn’t they report to you?"
"Tell me, what’s the situation?" Peter was feeling the weight of the problem now.
"Sigh, seems like there really was no report!"
At this, all five people started to look somber.
One of them said, "In the mining cave, there has been a monthly Ore Demon outbreak recently, where a massive number of Ore Demons emerge from deep underground. Fortunately, they don’t surge too far, and after a day of outbreak, they retreat."
Another sighed, "They’re all dead. Alas, everyone’s dead. There were originally one hundred and twenty people, and now they’re all dead, all swallowed by the Ore Demons."
It was indeed a disaster!
Peter now fully understood the situation, no wonder there were so few people who had left; most must have died here.
"How long before the Ore Demons become active again?"
"Counting from now, it will be five days before the next outbreak. All we can do is face death."
"Right, besides the Ore Demons, there are also Fire Spirits that come with them, and those Fire Spirits are terrifying."
After Peter inquired about the general situation, he learned that nobody dared to venture into deeper areas anymore, so naturally, they had no gains anymore.
Damn!
Peter felt troubled, knowing that if he couldn’t complete his monthly task, his evaluation upon returning would certainly be poor.
