Xu Yichen glanced at the first fork in the road passing by, and the miner behind him introduced: "This is the main mine of the big pit, the largest output, belonging to Count Modric, has been dug down three layers, Dalton works in it, but unfortunately he has ...... just now"

Needless to say, everyone understands that the guide who knows the mine well has been almost eaten by the undead in the previous chaos.

In order to develop the minerals as quickly as possible, Count Modric once issued a decree that any nobleman could recruit his own mining team to dig tunnels in the large pits, and whoever digs the tunnel will have the right to mine the tunnel for twenty-five years without paying any taxes.

It was this decree that transformed Storm's End from a remote town into a truly large city in a district, but Count Modric himself suffered a huge loss.

As the tunnels in the pit continued to spread and deepen, the cost of mining minerals increased, and most of the nobles of Storm's Castle enjoyed the preferential policy of not paying taxes.

For so many years, the safety and security of the large pit was completely the responsibility of Count Modric alone, and all kinds of safety work, including ventilation and collapse prevention, cost a huge amount of money every year.

Anyone can see that Count Modric's ambitions are enormous, and Storm's End is not the end of his ambitions, but the starting point.

If this disaster hadn't happened.

Now that most of the city's inhabitants have become undead and corpses, even if the plague can be resolved, it may not be able to regain its former prosperity without three to five years of recuperation.

Under the guidance of the miners, Xu Yichen turned into the fork, and the size of the mine road was instantly reduced by half, if the female samurai Vittoria walked here, I am afraid that she would have to worry about hitting her head.

"We dug two kilometres along the mine and there were four slip roads in between, three of which were abandoned." The miner held his torch close to the wall and blew hard, revealing a metal plaque embedded in the cave wall, shining in the firelight.

'Property of Viscount Amos, from 79 years of the Far South New Calendar'

"Fourteen silver coins per month, which is the minimum income for miners stipulated by Count Modric." The miner said with a look of regret: "The Earl is a good man, it's a pity. ”

"Take me to the abandoned mine you mentioned." Xu Yichen pointed at Ed: "You go last, be careful, once something goes wrong, report it immediately, and if you encounter any danger in front, you immediately lead people back!" ”

Ed, who had just swapped his beard for another transcendent, nodded, and rotated to the back of the line.

"Don't worry, I still want to go back alive to see the midday sun." Ed wiped the sweat of his palms on the armor, this dark mine, the torches could only illuminate the space of more than a meter in front of and behind, except for the sound of a few people panting, only the sound of footsteps kept echoing.

Everyone knows that there is something strange down here, but no one knows when there will be danger, and this eerie silence makes several survivors psychologically stressed.

Especially Eddard, who was walking at the end, almost every few steps, he had to look back, and he always felt that someone was following him.

When everyone was advancing, he could always hear a lone footstep behind him, some distance away from everyone, but when he looked closely, he found that the footsteps were exactly the right number of people.

Ed felt himself getting more and more paranoid, and sometimes he even felt someone patting his armor lightly from behind, and the increasingly muscy air made him sweat.

Xu Yichen felt the hot and humid air around him, and he knew that he had to finish checking this tunnel as soon as possible, otherwise without the help of the Chaos Demon, the low-oxygen air would turn everyone, including himself, into soft-footed shrimp.

He originally planned to go directly into the main mine, but intuitively, Xu Yichen believed that there would definitely be some clues to be found in the deepest part of the mine, and there would definitely be someone there for the three missing high-level leaders of the Brotherhood.

But since this mine road belonged to Viscount Amos, he had to come and have a look.

Directly in front of the mine, a black figure stood in the middle of the road, and no one except the Demon Hunter was noticed because of the light.

"Stop." Xu Yichen stopped: "There is a problem ahead, I'll go over and check it." ”

Several of the survivors were on high alert all the way, already exhausted, and their reactions were a little slower, especially Eddard, who crashed straight into the back of the person in front of him.

"Wait a minute." Xu Yichen left a sentence and walked forward alone.

The burly figure, standing there without any movement, not even the slightest breath, Xu Yichen was sure that the other party was either a dead person or an immortal who didn't need to breathe.

Therefore, he already held the [Graceful Ripper] in his hand, and he was a little glad that if he still used the [Nar's Flame Greatsword], he would probably have to use it as a spear.

The Demon Hunter stood less than half a meter behind the man in his way, and the other party still didn't react, he held out a finger, and the Alderfa Seal rushed forward along the finger, hitting the opponent's back with enough force to knock an adult down.

The figure fell forward with all its strength, and fell to the ground, shattered into a wreck!

Xu Yichen squatted down and checked the other party's wreckage by the light of the fire, and found that the residue on the ground was like ore powder, which was almost invisible on the ground.

One of the upper echelons of the Brotherhood has become a large city gate, which can constantly repair his twisted flesh, and one has become a 'death knell', which can temporarily awaken the consciousness of the undead.

Could it be that the three high-level leaders of the Brotherhood who have not appeared have already merged with the big mine itself?

Can it assimilate humanity into part of the Great Mine? Or is it simply to make living things part of a larger mine?

That's why those undead didn't dare to step into the big mine?

Xu Yichen held his breath, smoothed out the ore powder piled up into a small bag on the ground with his feet, and then said casually: "Okay, move on!" ”

He had studied psychology at the military academy, and in this confined space, humans naturally felt fear, and in this mine, the pressure on the survivors was enough.

He needs them to keep their sanity.

Xu Yichen held the torch high and looked around the rock walls, except for the traces of artificial excavation, there was no other abnormality.

This person who has been assimilated into minerals has been very stretched in his previous movements, and he has been assimilated unconsciously.
