In the dark and damp mine, the guards led Knight Rolando, Alicia, and Zheng Yan forward, with the firelight on both sides looming.

Not long ago, a person disappeared in this mine area. At this time, the personnel had been evacuated. At this moment, the four people arrived at the location unimpeded.

It is an uphill lifting platform. Looking down, you can see a complicated passage. It looks like the top of the cave with various sharp stones, and you can faintly hear the squeaking of mice.

Several pieces of blue ore and a dirty hat fell on the lifting platform.

"This is where the person disappeared. Several miners who were traveling with him just turned their eyes and realized that the person was missing. They dropped their things and ran out." The guard said.

"Disappeared into thin air." Zheng Yan walked forward. He looked at the hat, then picked up a piece of ore, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

[Mission: Ancient energy beasts, monsters that devour the energy of the earth, produce energy ores, and at the same time drain the life of the earth and eliminate pests!]

"Why does it feel like the system is in a hurry..." Zheng Yan looked at the blue ore in his hand. This mission gave some information. This kind of ore is produced by an ancient energy beast. This ancient energy beast will absorb this land.

life.

With a cry, the holy light flashed past, and the ore in Zheng Yan's hand fell to the side. Alicia said: "It's best not to touch it without protection. It will be troublesome to remove the pollution for you."

"What about those miners..." Zheng Yan turned around and asked.

Alicia shook her head. She felt a little complicated. Mining continued to be a cooperation between the nobles and the cathedral. The cathedral should give the miners measures to deal with pollution, even the simplest ones, but the result was nothing. This made her

Somewhat at a loss.

"The church and the empire will give them the compensation they need, and they come here voluntarily." Knight Rolando said matter-of-factly.

Zheng Yan ignored Knight Rolando, looked at the darkness below and said, "In all these years of mining, have you found any monsters like wild beasts?"

"?" Knight Rolando was stunned and said: "How is it possible? What kind of beasts and monsters can there be in this deep underground?"

"It seems that no one has ever discovered anything strange." Zheng Yan picked up the blue ore again, "We can't count on these people anymore. We have to rely on me and the nuns. As for that beast, I have the ability to kill it.

Did you kill it? Did you and the nun blow up the mine?"

"Speaking of explosions, those butterfly swordsmen also brought explosives before, could they be here?" Zheng Yan was thinking about it, and the ore in his hand was swept away by Alicia again.

"Don't catch it for too long." Alicia said seriously: "I'm not kidding, it's very troublesome to remove pollution!"

Zheng Yan picked up the blue ore again, and Alicia frowned as she looked at it, feeling that he was going against her. Zheng Yan said: "Is it possible that this is produced by something? It is produced by this...

…”

Before he could finish what he wanted to say, a slight sound came. Zheng Yan immediately stopped talking. The four of them narrowed their eyes and scanned the darkness below. Although there were sporadic lights, there were still many dark places.<

/p>

"Did you hear that right?" Knight Rolando was a little unsure, "Is there really any undiscovered beast?"

Alicia raised her white palm, and the holy light on her palm shone like a high-power light bulb, illuminating the intricate caves below.

The four of them stared, nervously observing every place, not letting go of any clues.

Zheng Yan threw the ore in his hand with his ghost hand, and then squeezed it hard. The ore cracked open several cracks, and light was revealed inside, and then he threw it in a certain direction.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound as the ore was smashed next to a cave that was only for one person to pass through. The ore exploded with a strong light. A shadow suddenly came out and flew into the cave, leaving only a muffled sound.

Going back and forth.

"You read that right just now..." Knight Rolando squinted his eyes and said with some uncertainty, "Is there really a monster down here?"

"Do you have problems with your eyes and ears?" Zheng Yan complained in his mind, and then said to the guard: "Hurry up and let's catch up."

"Zheng Yan." Alicia suddenly shouted.

Zheng Yan looked back and saw Alicia staring at the place where the shadow was before. Zheng Yan also looked over and saw a glowing skeleton.

It was an adult skeleton, emitting white fluorescence, quietly embedded on the rock wall of the cave.

"It seems that all the miners who disappeared before are dead." Knight Rolando said: "Grey, call everyone."

"Knight Rolando, Zheng Yan and I will go take a look first." Alicia said immediately.

"I'm afraid it's dangerous down there, you..."

"Knight Rolando, I'm here to solve the problem." Alicia shook her head.

"That thing won't be very strong. There's no need for you all to get in. That would be troublesome. It's enough for Sister Alicia and I to go down." Zheng Yan said, having already found a lever to control the lifting platform.<

/p>

Knight Rolando hesitated and exited the lifting platform with his escort, watching Zheng Yan pull the lever and descend with Alicia.

"Sir...are we just going to listen to a child and let them explore alone?" the guard asked in a low voice.

"Ms. Alicia is stronger than me. As for that child, you will not be stronger than him." Knight Rolando said lightly: "You go and gather people, I will wait here."

The guards on one side left in disbelief.

"I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to blow up this place." Zheng Yan looked back and saw that he was already far away from the Rolando knight.

"What's going on?" Alicia was very satisfied with Zheng Yan's previous cooperation, and now the two of them can go down and do bad things.

"There is a beast down here, and this ore is produced by that beast." Zheng Yan said lightly: "Don't ask me how I know, it's enough for you to believe me."

Alicia was stunned, silent for a moment, and nodded, "I believe you, but I still want to destroy this place."

"Okay." Zheng Yan breathed out, "Then let me think about what to do."

When they reached the entrance of the cave on the lifting platform, they saw a glowing skeleton. The legs of the skeleton had disappeared and turned into dots of fluorescent light.

"It seems that the more than 40 miners were like this before. No one was seen alive, and no corpse was found dead." Zheng Yan said after careful observation, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the luminous objects on the ground.

Alicia looked at the skeleton, frowned, and said slowly: "The light emitted by the skeleton is the same as the light in the energy ore."

"How do you say?" Zheng Yan studied a pool of liquid on the ground, "Is it a symptom of contamination, or is it the current cause of death?"

"I don't know." Alicia shook her head and looked at Zheng Yan, who was squatting down to study the liquid, "What are you looking at?"

"Blood!"
