The interior of the crystal mine was completely bright because of the lights emitted by the crystals. There was no need to place lamps or luminous stones on the site.
Along the long and broken paths, we can see a lot of people using pickaxes to break rocks and try to find rare crystals.
Clang !!!!! Clang !!!!! Clang !!!!! Clang !!!!! Clang !!!!!
The sounds of stone being hit are heard at every moment inside the mine. Some metal carts full of crystal were being pushed by other miners, the carts were coming from the bottom of the mine to the entrance.
The person in charge of the mine takes everything using a leather bag and the miner, who pushed the cart, is inspected to see if he has taken any crystal fragments.
The crystals excavated inside the mine are the size of a finger.
For some reason, noble families want crystals of this size, the smaller and almost irrelevant fragments were taken by the miners to sell elsewhere. The noble families did not mind losing extremely small pieces of crystals, as it was of little value to them.
But if someone is found breaking large pieces of crystals into smaller pieces, that person will be killed without mercy. For this is considered to be stealing from noble families.
This part is not explained during recruitment, people only learn this when the worst happens. This is done to show others what happens when someone steals a noble family.
The new miners and mercenaries, who just arrived were heading towards the deepest parts of the mine, as this is where it is still being explored.
The group followed a nobleman all the way, as he is the one who knows how to get there. Along the way, they encountered no danger whatsoever.
The walk took about half an hour. This shows how deep the crystal mine is.
"We arrived. This will be your place of work." The nobleman pointed to a closed steel door protected with powerful spells.
The people, who were doing the job for the first time, were nervous about what would appear on the other side of the door. If there is a door, the other side must be something quite scary to prevent it from coming out.
Those who have done this work before, they did not care much about it. But they were still nervous because they know the challenges they will face next.
The nobleman took out a key made of crystal and inserted it into the steel door.
A strong glow appeared and covered the door before disappearing.
Crack… Crack… Crack…
The sounds of something being unlocked were heard.
"I will open the door, you need to be quick and get in. Those who have done the work before will assist those who do not know what needs to be done. You have five minutes to enter. Those who do not enter will be sent back to the surface and will only be able to come here again in five months" The nobleman explained.
The site can only be opened every five months, as it is very expensive to open the spells and put it back on. So, they need to be quick to not spend too much energy on the spells.
"Get ready"
The veterans were already at the front and ready to enter the door, they weren't worrying too much about the newbies because they didn't want to share the rewards in the end. But they need to pretend to care because the nobles need more people alive to do the job.
creak...
The nobleman held the door and pulled hard. The door is much heavier than it appears.
A strong light shone from the other side as the door opened.
When the door was fully opened, a spectacular and frightening scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
A world. A world with strange creatures roaming everywhere and people in large and small groups fighting against them.
The place on the other side of the door was inside the crystal mine, but it looks like a completely different world.
Looking further afield it is possible to see a city built within the site, but why is there no transport stone to take the miners and mercenaries there?
The city is surrounded by the creatures. Protective spells prevent creatures from invading the city.
In some places, people are fighting these creatures while others dig the crystals into the ground. In some places, it is also possible to see people being killed by the creatures.
The scene in front of the crowd was frightening.
"What is it??!!!" A newbie shouted. He has never seen a scene like this before.
"Get in fast !!! Don't waste time !!!" The nobleman shouted at the group.
The door was already open and they needed to hurry and run.
The veterans started to run through the door without a second thought.
As veterans walk through the door, the number of people decreases rapidly. But there was still about seventy percent of the people in the tunnel, they were the newbies.
"Get in soon !! If you don't want to get in, don't get in the way of others" The nobleman shouted when he saw that many people were standing in the tunnel. He was irritated by this.
The nobleman's warning woke the group, those who were hesitating clenched their teeth and ran towards the door. They didn't have many methods to make money and the only way to try to earn something is to take a risk.
The newbies started running quickly towards the door. In less than five minutes, the nine six hundred and thirty people run through the door.
Ranger ...
The nobleman closed the door and closed it with the key. A strong glow covered the door again and the protection spells were activated.
"Roth, was the work done?" Briff suddenly appeared and asked.
"Yes. Everyone has already entered. I just hope that the number of crystals this time will be greater than the last time. We've lost a lot of money before" Roth complained.
"This is difficult to say. Seventy percent of the people who accepted the job this time are newbies. Many of them must die inside the mine, I just hope that the other veterans have a chance to make it to the door alive to deliver the crystals to us."
"These commoners are a bunch of useless people. They can't even get the job done right. They just need to dig out the crystals and bring it to us. How difficult is it to do that?" Briff commented arrogantly. He didn't even care about the lives of the people they hired, he just wanted the crystals.
"We can't do anything about it. Our families do not want to call people from the strongest places because they will charge a lot to do this job. Besides, we cannot use our subordinates to do this task. We can only hire the commoners to do this." Roth also did not care about the life of the commoners. He just wanted to know about the wealth gained by the crystals.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
