While Skeleton Jack studied the various poses of burying himself in the soil, Roger and Jerry also made it to the clearing below the mine.

Once the cage had come to a complete stop, Roger opened the gate, stepped out of the cage, lit the torch he had prepared, and surveyed his surroundings.

Judging from the situation underground, there have also been undead who want to reuse the mine here to dig up soul crystals, and the area around the cage has obviously been cleaned up, roughly returning to the way it was when it was mined. It's just that for some reason they gave up on this idea, the cleanup was obviously only a small part of the work, and the further mine tunnel was full of wreckage, boulders and collapsed beams blocked most of the road, and only one person could pass through the gap, and Roger didn't show any sign of dumbness when he glanced around.

"So," Roger took two steps with difficulty, and said helplessly to Jerry, who was still hanging on him, "You didn't know that there would be a period of time when the cage would float up when it fell, and they told you to hold on to the handrail." ”

"Woo, I almost fell!" Jerry, the little skeleton, poked his smooth head out of Roger's arms, and his voice was crying, "I thought I was going to die again"

"Alright, just scream twice, isn't it okay, get off me", Roger pulled the koala-like Jerry off himself, and didn't forget to continue to observe his surroundings.

Strangely, the strange feeling that can be felt at the mouth of the well, is not experienced here, not to mention the legendary necromantic energy that is so rich that it makes the undead collapse, except for the darkness and dampness, this place is no different from other mines.

To appease the frightened Jerry, Roger quickly arranged for Jerry to go around the cage to look for signs of the mute's activities, as a skeleton, although weak, at least the dark vision still exists, as for Roger, he leaned in the direction of the mine to search for the traces that the mute might have left.

By the light of the fire, Roger stood at the mouth of the mine and observed its structure, the mine road is also known as the flat road, leading to the ore face where the ore is excavated, there is only this mine road under the entire mine, at this time it has been blocked and almost impossible to pass, the mine road is supported by dark materials that cannot be distinguished, the support structure is still generally intact, and it is still strong and durable by visual inspection, but Roger is still highly suspicious of its reliability, and does not plan to step into the mine, just turns around and leaves carefully.

Walking around the open space at the bottom of the shaft, Roger noticed that the bottom of the mine was littered with puddles of water that could seep out of the groundwater, as it was difficult to avoid them when mining ore. The foul puddle shimmered in the dim light of the fire, making it easy to step on if you weren't paying attention. Roger dodged carefully, found a relatively dry place, crouched down and twisted the soft soil on the ground, the soil was damp and mixed with fine crystal particles, which were soul ores that were crushed to the point that they were difficult to use.

It stands to reason that the floor of the tunnel should not be so soft, and the ground here should be sufficiently compacted for ease of transportation. Moreover, there will be no such ore-rich soil near the cage, because this is a sign of ore veins, unless .....

"Was there a storm of energy blowing out of the depths of the mine, or even knocking down the ore from the depths of the mine, crushing it into powder, and blowing it all over the place?

At this time, there were layers of ripples on the water surface, Roger quickly lay down when he saw this, and he didn't care that the torch in his hand was accidentally pressed into the water and extinguished, in the darkness Roger put his ears on the ground, and felt that the ground was shaking, faint and continuous, which was transmitted here from the vibration from the depths of the mine.

"Is there movement in the mine? is it dumb? or something else" Roger felt that he had some recklessness in coming down to find someone this time, the fact that the dumb man disappeared under the mine was weird, Roger suddenly remembered, the dumb man rarely communicates with people on weekdays, it stands to reason that he will not know the mine here when he first arrives, what is there that is guiding him here? Roger shivered, and a cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.

"Jerry, something is wrong here," Roger stood up and called into the darkness, "let's go up first." ”

No one responded in the mine, except for the echo of Roger's voice and the sound of ticking water, there was no other sound, the silence was suffocating, and Jerry's footsteps disappeared at some point!

"Jerry?" Roger tensed his body and asked tentatively, but there was still no one to answer in the dark, but there was the sound of fine stones falling, and Roger, who realized that something was wrong, quickly bowed down to the wall in the dark, leaning against the solid rock wall, and his mental power quickly drew a magic model representing 'light'.

In the magic system of the pan-continent, three basic elements are required to release magic, mental power, magic power, and magic model. According to the theory of Goode, the first Sanctuary magician in history and the founder of magic that systematized the chaotic magic at that time, magic is a phenomenon caused by the mage's own magic and natural magic resonance, which is far beyond the thought of that era, profoundly expounds the application and change of magic, quantifies the concentration of magic and the law of meditation for the first time, and is published in the form of the essay "'Forbidden Spell' - The Beginning and End of Extraordinary Power" in the "Arcane" of that year magazine, which eventually shocked the world and had a profound impact on the development of magic for nearly a thousand years.

Back to the present.

Through the magic model constructed in the spirit world, the magic resonates and turns into pure white light that blooms on Roger's hand, which is a level 0 spell trick, the flash technique.

"Damn it!"

A flash of intense light illuminated the tunnel, and Roger finally saw the source of the sound, and at some point there was a huge crack in the roof of the mine, and the rubble and earth were constantly falling, and the bracket supporting the roof of the cave was crumbling!

"What the hell is this place?" It was obviously too late to run back to the cage, Roger was too far away from the cage in order to explore the terrain, Roger must have heard the crisp sound of the bracket collapsing, and he didn't have time to give Roger more time to think, the sound of falling rocks intensified, and he could only run towards the mine road in his impression just now.

Almost a few seconds after Roger's body flashed into the mine, the entire shaft of the pit suddenly collapsed, the sides and the rock wall of the dome were almost toppled and shattered, and the boulders and supporting structures crashed into the ground, bringing tremors that I believe can be clearly felt on the surface, fortunately, the collapse did not affect the mine.

"Ahem," the dust raised by the collapse made the already dark tunnels seem even more muddy, Roger had to use his precious magic to release a breeze spell to blow them away, the phenomenon of the wind caused by the spell blew away the floating dust, Roger found that the entire way back was completely blocked by boulders, and the light above could be faintly seen through the gaps between the stones, and it was almost impossible to return from the original way.

"It's kind of interesting", Roger wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, for such a bad situation, Roger is not particularly panicked, as a last resort, he can also use the concept power called 'Initial' to return to the mine, this is a special ability, 'Initial' gives Roger the ability to locate the initial point of time and space at will, and use this to go back, although this will make Roger, who is now in a big drop in strength, lie down for several months.

Before going down the well, Roger had defined the initial point in space at the wellhead as a backhand, and the habitual caution made Roger not in a desperate situation now, but Roger was more worried about the situation of the little skeleton Jerry. However, with the flash technique just now, Roger can be sure that there is no Jerry and the mute around the cage just now, and Jerry is likely to enter the pit alone to find the trace of the dumb man when Roger went around to the other side of the clearing.

"Pop" Roger carefully pulled out a section of what looked like a wooden crossbar from the collapsed ruins, tore his shirt and wrapped it around one end of the crossbar, and constructed a first-level spell oil finger technique, which is generally used to hinder the enemy's movement. Although the light is dim, it is avoidable that the constant illumination will deplete Roger's small mana reserves, and in the unknown place, every mana should be cherished.

Lighting a homemade torch, and with the help of the not-so-bright light, Roger carefully made his way through the boulders blocking the road to the depths of the tunnel, a very rudimentary tunnel that was hard to imagine as the basis of a city-state. The walls of the mine were pitted against the firelight, showing a wind-eroded surface, and the undead were supposed to have excavated the mine with some kind of corrosive magic, rather than digging it manually, which is what most undead are good at.

About a kilometer in the downward slope of the mine, there were multiple forks in the mine road ahead, Roger stopped, Roger did not find any traces of Jerry passing by on the way, it stands to reason that there was such a big movement just now, Jerry who was exploring forward should be aware of it and should come back to look for Roger.

"Could it be that Jerry has also been affected by an unknown strange power in the mines. Roger had a little headache to think of this possible fact, if it was as Roger expected, then Jerry might have gone straight into the depths of the mine, without knowing its route, it would be undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find someone in this strange mine, and there was also the possibility that there might be a mysterious power to peep at the side, and the chances of Jerry and the mute surviving were very small.

Although it is very unwilling, but this search is doomed to fail, there are too many things that can be hidden in the rugged and deep mine tunnel, like a bloody mouth inducing Roger to jump in, the sealed demon god, the passage to the shadows, the hiding dark wizard, some possibilities, even Roger's initial concept is irretrievable.

"It's time to leave". Almost at the same time that Roger wanted to retreat, with a few rapid crisp sounds, the seemingly stable mine tunnel began to shake violently, the cave wall cracked rapidly, and the scaffolds corroded and aged as if time was fast forwarding, and it was about to collapse! These signs appeared in front of Roger's eyes undisguisedly, it was the mysterious force urging and threatening to let Roger continue to move forward.

Seeing all this, Roger smiled and was about to activate the concept and return to the ground, no matter what it was, he would not continue to move forward, "Brother won't play with you anymore, bye-bye." ”

In a short moment, the concept reconstructs the chain of space and cause and effect, Roger's existence is redefined to a point above the mine, and Roger's body slowly fades into the air. Just as Roger's consciousness was about to blur with the change of space, Jerry's shout came from the fork in the road near the left of the mine, as if the voice had already existed, but was muffled by something.

Roger secretly cursed that it was hateful, but still terminated the execution of the 'primitive' concept, and his existence was pulled back here, Jerry's hoarse cry became clearer, and a touch of essence converged in Roger's eyes, and the collapse of the mine had begun, and the solid stone and earth were squeezing towards Roger behind him, and Roger had to recognize the direction of Jerry's voice and flee.

He didn't get far before Roger found that the mine collapsed at a speed that was only a line slower than the speed at which he could escape, and he was just driven deeper into the mine, which made Roger hate the evil taste of the strange forces behind the scenes.

"Don't let me find you, bastard!" Roger swore viciously as he fled in embarrassment.
