Chapter 14: The Unsolvable Situation
"How's it going?" Mo Mingke asked anxiously when he saw the returning Yamm and Gullov. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Gurlov sneered and said, "I remember you told me at the time that seizing the mine would not cause trouble; ā
Puzzled, Yamm asked, "Didn't the enemy run away, and why did we leave?"
"What do you know!" said Gurlov, "the most critical enemy is definitely still lurking and not moving, and if we are aware of our position, we will be finished." ā
"So serious?" Mo Mingke said palely.
"There was no one in the mine, and those people evacuated as soon as they got rid of the ghouls, which means that they knew about my spells. It's a good thing this goblin has mastered such an inexplicable flickering technique, otherwise how would we have been able to get out of it?"
Yamu said proudly, "Hee-hee, now you know how good Yamu is!"
Mo Mingke sighed and said, "I didn't expect happiness to leave us so soon." ā
But Mo Mingke quickly thought that the fortunate thing in the misfortune was that the location of the castle had not been exposed, and as long as the base camp was safe, survival would still be guaranteed. Moreover, they had already completed their first transaction, and there were nearly seven thousand after the split with Gurlov. You must know that in this world, as long as an ordinary human family is a little more frugal, the annual living expenses are only less than 1,000 gold coins. This money is definitely enough for them to use for three years.
What's more, there are seven carts of rough stones newly shipped in the castle! If you sell this batch of goods, you can make a lot of money! That's enough!
"Lord Demon King, what should we do next?"
"What else can I do, anyway, we have already made a lot of money, and it is quite exciting to pick up a cheap price and run. Mo Mingke said: "Tomorrow we will sell the remaining rough stones, and then start a new life." ā
The crowd dispersed, and there was no word for the night.

Griffin gathered up the remnants, and those who had escaped had all been captured and killed on the spot.
As dawn approached, and the stars faded, Griffin sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated for a night, still unable to do anything.
"Damn!" Griffin threw a punch into the ground.
It's just a little bit...... It's almost close...... It's just a little bit ...... Actually let the enemy slip away......
Everything was as expected, the enemy fell into the trap due to the limit of the cast range, and there was no problem with his own tactics.
But why...... Why did the enemy suddenly disappear in the end? Could it be a flickering spell? Absolutely impossible, the flickering spell takes a certain amount of time to chant and a magic array to be carved.....
The worst thing is that another ghoul entered the cave, and at that time, he ignored it for fear of luring the enemy, but now it has become a big trouble.
Since the enemy can come and go freely on the battlefield, the ghouls in the mine are equivalent to forming an insoluble deterrent: since they don't know when the enemy will suddenly arrive, the ghouls lurking in the cave will explode at any time, and if they break in, they are likely to be wiped out......
That's it, what can be done now is to wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and Sodick, who is also a necromancer, will definitely be able to break the deterrence of ghouls......
