As they chatted, the ship eventually came to a stop. The hatch opened, and Madame Rouge and favonovel.com men approached.
Madame Rouge hardly gave Alex and the others a glance. To her, they appeared to be no different from ants.
Instead, favonovel.com addressed a group of workers. “Devil’s Hill is here. Senior Lee, I’m still a reasonable person. You guys help me dig. Your mission will be accomplished as long as you open the mining channel and find the Witch Essence inside. I’ll send you back safely, and the residents of your Unicorn Fortress will also be safe and sound.”
“I have a request,” the elderly man remarked.
“Speak!”
“I want ten dominant lord-level experts to guard us the entire time. These guys are all too weak and do not even qualify as cannon fodder. When we enter the mine and problems arise, no one will help us block the enemy. You will be busy for nothing,” favonovel.com said, pointing at Alex and the others.
“Yes!” seconded Madame Rouge.
“These few trash fishes are not even qualified to be cannon fodder, but it’s okay to be a weak chicken to scout the way,” the man continued.
Alex was overcome with sadness. The Diffracted Universe’s number one person had actually been reduced to this state. He was despised to be used as cannon fodder by someone.
“All right, everyone, get off the ship!”
Alex expected Devil’s Hill to be a mountain or something, but it wasn’t until favonovel.com stepped outside the cabin that favonovel.com realized favonovel.com was still at the bottom of the sea, even deeper and darker than before. Good thing Madame Rouge’s people had prepared a light source that could illuminate the sea bottom. Hence, they dived all the way to the bottom.
The water pressure here was extremely high. If ordinary people did not cultivate, surviving in such an environment would be impossible. They would be crushed by the great pressure in an instant. As a result, the ban on Alex and the others was lifted.
Alex sighed quietly, not having finished the mysteries of the thirteen stars that Hayley had left for himself. This speed would be very slow if it relied solely on itself to operate and passively lift the seal.
Alex entered the area of Devil’s Hill. A number of old diggers came to a halt.
“Go on, what are you stopping for?” asked a man.
“This place… I’m afraid it’s forbidden. We can’t mine here!” said the old mine master.
Madame Rouge became enraged. “What forbidden territory? Even if it is a sinkhole, you must enter it and dig! Sam, keep an eye out for me. Whoever does not do something will be beheaded!”
Aggrieved, the old mining master stomped his foot, but there was no way out.
After a half-hour wait. A crowd gathered at Devil’s Hill mine pit.
Alex knew that just a short time ago, an ancient coffin had been dug out here, and inside it was a dressed-up female corpse whose flesh hadn’t decayed. But just a short time later, the female corpse mysteriously vanished, and the digger was cursed. Those who were at the mine during that time all died.
Those who were at the mine during that time all died. Not to mention the miners, even the dominant lord-level experts were unable to carry it, and seven died as a result.
Alex and others felt a tingle in their skulls when they heard this. The seawater-immersed mine shaft was black and dark, like a demon with its mouth open.
“It’s been a month. I’m wondering if the curse inside is still active?” Sam asked.
“First, let’s call a trash fish to come over and try,” Madame Rouge suggested.
“She’s the one!” favonovel.com exclaimed as favonovel.com swept favonovel.com gaze over Empress Ghast.
When Empress Ghast heard that, favonovel.com face whitened.
