A narrative difficulty of at least Level B could wipe out a small team of dozens
of people.
Leonard Churchill didn’t mind.
Seemed his style somehow.
Treacherous, cunning, greedy… now that’s Sinless City.
According to the current intel, it might be a bit of a stretch for him alone. But with Tracy Garcia and the other two, handling a Level B difficulty narrative issue shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
Those guys from the Black Wolf Group clearly had some information that others didn’t know about.
Just as Tracy Garcia took the initiative to form a team with Leonard Churchill.
Liam Martinez and Alison who were a few tables away, knew what she was doing, and looked helpless.
“Ah, Little Garcia is really… I don’t know why she’s trusting a stranger so much.
She even voluntarily made it easy for him.”
“Let it be, consider it as leading a newbie. Once we go out, we have to check thoroughly to see if she’s under any mental spell or something.”
“Little Garcia herself has high mental power, there’s no way she could be easily affected by any mental spells? Probably… well, let’s talk more when we get back. She’s been with us since we were kids, hasn’t had much exposure to strangers, pure-hearted and easily deceived by sweet talk…”
The two chatted and sighed at the same time.
This carpool of hunters had agreed when they arrived that they would collectively go to the Burial Mountain Mine on the first day.
This way, everyone would easily complete the two mandatory missions of “hunting a werewolf” and “17 Quality Iron Ore .
With their bellies full of food and drinks, a team of over forty left Townsend
Town.
This was also an underground world, it was completely dark outside the town.
The group carried torches and various lighting tools, heading towards the forest to the west.
The entrance to the Burial Mountain Pit was not far from the foot of the mountain to the west of the town.
“Hey, isn’t it said that the town is surrounded by rampant werewolves? Why haven’t we bumped into one?”
“One werewolf can be exchanged for a reward worth at least fifty thousand at the town mayor’s. Tch tch, wish we could have a few more. There are so many of us, if we get too few, it won’t be enough to split.”
“Young man, don’t be too optimistic. If we run into a Catastrophe level werewolf, even if it’s Level D, someone could die.”
“Werewolves, those Abyssal Creatures, are cunning and like to ambush. They won’t appear with so many people around. Once you’re in the mine, you’ll know how terrible they are.”
The hunters chatted away, successfully arriving at the entrance of the Burial Mountain Pit.
The miners from Townsend Town have been digging here for hundreds of
years, and it’s fairly large.
There were railway tracks leading to the depths at the entrance of the mine, and a mining cart overturned next to the tracks.
There were several carcasses on the ground that had been gnawed to only bones, and a gust of cold air blew out from the mine from time to time.
The environment was gloomy and terrifying.
But to hunters, this was nothing new.
As soon as they arrived, a few five-person groups couldn’t wait to get in.
Going in first might attract the attention of the monsters, but the mine is where the largest rewards in this Alternate Dimension are.
Apart from iron ore, the Burial Mountain Gold also produces Mithril Ore. There are also many equipments left behind by past merchants and knights who were dragged into the cave by werewolves.
Leather Armor, swords, magic books, gems… all have been found according to the intel.
Leonard Churchill and his group were all here for the materials, didn’t have a
big need for wealth.
They followed the crowd unhurriedly, at the back.
Lamps left by the miners were on the walls of the cave. These special lamps made of Demon Beast fat can burn for a long time.
The hunters lit them as they went, and the cave lit up.
Stepping in, Enlightenment was also displayed: ‘Found ‘Burial Mountain Mine’, storyline exploration +20%’.
Leonard Churchill carefully observed his surroundings.
The mine was larger than he had imagined, with most mine paths being seven or eight meters high.
The irregular marks dug out were all around.
The light from the lamps reflected a metallic gloss on the rock walls, these were all iron ore.
The path of the mine went underground, after not too long, they saw a very large karst space.
Looking down, Leonard Churchill could see a layer of green fog but couldn’t see the bottom.
But according to intel, this pit was two to three hundred meters deep.
This was the first level of the mine.
The rock walls around the deep pit were all large pieces of wood and wooden planks forming walkways. This mine was several hundred years old; some wooden planks had rotted. It felt like stepping on air and you’d fall into the pit with no visible bottom.
But the hunters were all Extraordinary Men, such an environment couldn’t hinder their steps in the slightest.
After entering, there were forks in the path and the hunters began splitting up. They were hunting monsters and seeking treasure; being in large group wasn’t ideal.
Leonard Churchill and the three others also found a path, along the railway track, continuing further into the mine.
The wooden planks beneath their feet looked black and rotted, but were quite firm.
They could at least bear a few tons of ore without collapsing.
But after walking for a while, signs of battle could be found.
In some places, the wooden planks had broken and needed to be jumped over. Liam Martinez, who was leading the way, took out his card and had already changed into the Black Knight’s Heavy Armor, holding a single-handed sword and a small Round Shield.
Alison, the ranger, also got her crossbow out, looking like she’s in full combat mode.
Tracy Garcia was a Spirit Communicator. There was no need to summon a spirit monster if there was no fight, but she was a little nervous in this environment, fully focused on her surroundings.
Only Leonard Churchill in the back, resting his hands on his revolver at his waist, seemed relaxed.
Her two companions seemed to have stopped talking and mocking ever since he had joined the team, not sure what Tracy Garcia had said to them.
But they didn’t seem like they had the intention to interact.
Like a stranger in the team..
