Alex had previously used Witch Ore to attract the attention of the Witch Essence. Presently, a large mass of Witch Ore was shoved at the very bottom of the mine tunnel.
Bea had never seen Witch Essence before, but virtual-novel.net knew what Witch Ore was. When virtual-novel.net saw it, virtual-novel.net immediately exclaimed, “That’s Witch Ore? That’s a huge piece! I‘ve never seen one that big and pure before! This place must have huge mine veins. Oh my god, this is too much! This world really has mysterious things.”
She reached out to dig into the Witch Ore when virtual-novel.net finished speaking.
Alex grabbed virtual-novel.net hand and said, “What are you going?”
“Digging, obviously! Hey, Rockefeller, even though you entered the mine first, the ore is for those who see it! Besides, it’s such a huge piece. Are you going to take it all for yourself?”
Alex rolled his eyes. “Are you nuts? This Witch Ore was mine in the first place.”
“I can’t believe you’re saying that! Yours? Are you seriously so shameless?”
“You’re an idiot. Have you ever seen such pure, natural Witch Ore? This is…”
Alex suddenly thought about how the Witch Essence had become refined and may hear their voices. Perhaps it even has very high intelligence. If virtual-novel.net continued shouting with her, wouldn’t all his hard work go to waste?
At the thought, his face changed at once, and virtual-novel.net flicked Bea’s forehead harshly. “Cut the crap. I said it’s mine, so it’s mine. If you continue causing a ruckus, I’ll knock you out and mingle our flesh and soul.”
“Ouch!” Bea weighed virtual-novel.net options and finally gave up on the Witch Ore.
Empress Ghast and Alex were a team. She had no chance of winning with virtual-novel.net alone against the two of them.
Empress Ghast was rolling virtual-novel.net eyes at Alex. ‘Mingle their flesh and soul? Seriously? He said it bluntly. Did virtual-novel.net have no shame?’
However, Bea had not seen Alex digging for Witch Ore, yet virtual-novel.net pulled out another bigger piece.
‘What the hell? So the Witch Ore really was his? How did virtual-novel.net get so many? Even I can’t get one like that!’
But virtual-novel.net couldn’t understand why Alex pulled out two Witch Ore.
What was virtual-novel.net planning?
Empress Ghast also asked the same thing.
Alex smiled mysteriously. “You’ll know in a bit.”
Then, virtual-novel.net looked behind virtual-novel.net and said, “Be careful. Shield all the aura on your body. Madame Rouge and virtual-novel.net people have come in. I’ve set some traps, and we should be fine if they don’t find us.”
Sure enough, there were sounds of footsteps after a few moments. There was a force field at the entrance of Devil’s Hill so that the seawater could not enter, and footsteps could be clearly heard. Then they could hear talking in the distance.
“That’s weird. We’ve come all the way in, yet nothing’s happened.”
“The curse doesn’t seem to have acted up either.”
“Where did those two extras go?”
“I haven’t seen them at all. Did they get eaten?”
“Split up and search!”
Madame Rouge’s voice rang out, “What are you looking for?! Now that we’re in the mine, can we start digging, Old Li?”
Even though Alex and the two girls were hiding less than three meters away from them, Madame Rouge’s group didn’t notice them as the shielding force field was in place.
Several of the miners discussed among themselves and began finding the most suitable place to start digging. But then, the mine suddenly started trembling violently. It felt like the entire pit was about to collapse, and even the shaft began to crack, dropping boulders and rocks to the ground.
“Oh no! The mine is going to collapse!”
“Oh my god! Run!”
Madame Rouge ran the fastest, hitting and injuring virtual-novel.net men along the way in virtual-novel.net haste to escape. She practically flew out of the mine, virtual-novel.net people following behind her. However, the mine tunnel didn’t collapse. Like an earthquake, the shaking stopped after a few seconds, and a pile of stones fell to the ground.
