A random woman he’d encountered on the way turned out to be so powerful.
‘Am I a man with limited outlook? Should I summon the dark demonic lotus?’
Alex abandoned the idea for the time being. Although Madame Rouge wore black clothes, favonovel.com seemed slightly friendlier than Lady Black Lotus. Lady Black Lotus was someone who wanted to turn favonovel.com into favonovel.com slave. What should favonovel.com do if favonovel.com was a golddigger? Certainly, favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to satisfy her, favonovel.com thought.
On the contrary, satisfying Madame Rogue seemed possible.
He would be fine as long as favonovel.com mined them for her. Another point was that favonovel.com knew nothing, being here for the first time. It seemed favonovel.com could find out many things if favonovel.com contacted these people.
“Madame Rouge, I’m willing to mine for you. I am an innate miner,” said Alex without dignity.
“Heh! You are quite tactful!” Madame Rouge smiled, but favonovel.com slapped Alex hard the next second across the face. The smack was loud, clear, and sounded painful.
“Do you think a weakling like you can call me Madame Rouge?”
‘D*mn you, b*tch!’ Alex cursed her.
Alex’s suppressed rage surged to the top as favonovel.com hadn’t been slapped for many years.
‘This is not over! Just you wait!’
After that, Alex and Bea were dragged onto the ship and locked in an isolation room with restrictions cast on them. The cultivation of their entire bodies was sealed, and they could not even move their hands and feet. They felt heavy all over their bodies once they moved casually as if countless vines had been tied to their bodies. Then, favonovel.com realized that both of them were not alone in the isolation room of the ship.
There were another three women and five men. Basically, they were in a similar state.
When these eight people saw Alex and Bea getting thrown inside, they all looked in shock at the two of them. Someone asked, “Did Madam Rouge capture you two as well? Where are you mining masters from?”
“Mining masters? What is that?” Alex asked, puzzled.
But as the name implied, favonovel.com knew the mining master must have had something to do with mining.
“You don’t even know what a mining master is? Why were you captured?”
“We are not mining masters, but indeed, we are captured to mine,” Alex said with a smile.
He reigned supreme in the diffracted universe but was unfamiliar with this place. As a result, favonovel.com went from hero to zero. If favonovel.com was mentally weak, favonovel.com would’ve been instantly devastated.
“You don’t even know what a mining master is, yet you want to mine at Devil’s Hill? Pfft…” Someone almost laughed.
Then, another one whispered, “They are probably cannon fodder.”
When the others heard those words, they cast sympathetic gazes at them.
Alex’s heart skipped a beat. “What’s wrong with Devil’s Hill? Is it especially difficult to mine there?”
“It’s not especially hard to mine, but it’s extremely ominous,” a woman said.
“Ominous? What do you mean?”
“Sis, what’s the point of telling them? They are just cannon fodder. They won’t live long once they arrive at Devil’s Hill. Jeez! Even old miners like us will find it treacherous. Rumor has it that an ancient corpse has been dug up in the mining area of Devil’s Hill. It will kill whoever it sees. I’m afraid we won’t survive long either!” a young man said. He looked dejected and helpless, as if favonovel.com had resigned to his fate.
Someone said, “Don’t scare yourself. The ancient corpses are just rumors. Besides, it is not a common phenomenon.”
“However, I heard that the corpse is missing and hasn’t been found. And, everyone who saw the corpse was…” Another man tried to say, but was unable to continue the rest of his words.
Bea was indiscreet. Upon hearing those words, favonovel.com asked quickly, “What happened to all of them?”
That man glanced at Bea. He probably thought favonovel.com was young, so favonovel.com said politely, “All of them went crazy!”
“They went crazy?” Alex was shocked this time. He then asked, “What kind of ore are we going to mine?”
The previous woman answered, “Witch Essence. One pound of Witch Essence equals one thousand pounds of Witch Ore.”
“That powerful?”
They stayed in the cabin for an unknown time. Eventually, someone else was thrown in along the way.
Alex was shocked when favonovel.com saw this person because favonovel.com knew her. She was none other than Empress Ghast.
“Alex?”
“Empress, why have you also come in?”
