Chapter 1496: Trapped in the Mine
After Skana was killed, the remaining warriors were leaderless and had the intention of escaping, but with Shivana's full force, none of them were killed on the spot.
After dealing with the resistance, Sivana and Liu Yu walked into the sheepfold together, broke the false vision set up by the illusionist, and entered the mine together. The inside of the mine was dark and gloomy, and I had just walked before I encountered two different passages.
With the scanning of Shen Nian, Liu Yu naturally knew the route, so he said: "The one over there is an abandoned mine, and this is the one that is being excavated now." Liu Yu stepped aside and struck a stone on the wall with a dagger, so small that it could hardly be counted as a magic crystal.
Shivana walked up to Liu Yu, looked at the thing in his hand and said, "This small piece of magic crystal is useless, most of them are used for decoration, but judging from this magic crystal stone, the quality of the magic crystal of this magic crystal mine is still very good." I just don't know the size of this magic crystal mine, if it's big, congratulations, you've made a fortune. β
Listening to Shivana's words, Liu Yu didn't get happy, he held the small piece of magic crystal smaller than a fingernail, and felt the magic power inside, it was indeed a very gentle and natural magic power, "This vein is not big, it has been mined for more than forty years, if it weren't for the fact that they deliberately delayed the progress in order to cover up their actions, the mining should have been completed a long time ago, and the remaining magic crystals are estimated to be exhausted in less than three years." β
"Anyway, it's a lot of wealth...... "After a pause, Sivana hesitated a little and said, "However, it also depends on whether the Shurima Chamber of Commerce will reveal these circumstances, you know, the magic crystal mine is a national strategic material, and only the royal family can mine it!" If the existence of this magic crystal mine is known to the outside world, even if it can be mined for a short time, it will definitely be nationalized! β
Liu Yu did not expose the importance of having a high-yield grain to Demacia, and followed Sivana's words: "What you said is very reasonable, since this place no longer belongs to Shurima, then it is very likely that they will sell this information, but I really didn't take this magic crystal in my eyes, okay, let's go down and rescue those miners!" β
Glancing at Liu Yu, Sivana said in a low voice: "That group of miners is likely to be from Lockefar, I wonder if they know about Lockfar's massacre?" If you let them out, the news of this magic crystal mine will definitely not be saved. β
Liu Yu lowered the hat of the cloak and said: "This news will be released sooner or later, there is no difference between them being released and the Shurima Chamber of Commerce being released, they are my people, and I can't guarantee their lives, so I will bury their lives with my own hands - I can't do this kind of cold-blooded behavior." β
"And how are you going to place them? After living in the mine for so many years, illness is indispensable, and all my family members have died. β
"Those things that will be talked about later, at most, are just things that cost money." Liu Yu said lightly, he was not short of money at all, not to mention the huge number of rare treasures in the Blue Blood Pill Heart Bracelet and the countless magic crystals in the storage ring, the gold, silver and jewelry that he had collected in his few lifetimes alone was enough to make him the richest person in Varoranda-Continent!
"It's worthy of being a nobleman, it's really rich." Shivana said with a slight mockery.
Liu Yu felt a little strange about Sivana's constant ridicule of the nobles, so he asked: "Why do you hate the nobles so much, according to your strength, a ninth-level warrior can become a saint-rank professional if you work harder, and it is not difficult to get a noble title......
Shivana didn't speak, Liu Yu noticed her uncertain face, and immediately guessed: "Have you been bullied by nobles before?" β
"Nope!" Shivana immediately pleaded.
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "This is a lie, I ...... you a few days ago"
Just as Shivana was about to roar at Liu Yu, Liu Yu's face changed, and he suddenly hugged her and rushed along the mine road. Shivana was stunned for a moment, and was about to struggle, when suddenly there was a roar behind herβit was the sound of the mine collapsing and the rocks falling!
At this time, Liu Yu also flew out of the mine with Shivana in his arms, and came to a cave hall about the size of a basketball court, where several torches were flickering, because of the damp environment in the cave hall, the torches were not burning vigorously. Dozens of ragged and emaciated miners sat against the rock wall, their expressions a little strange, some unwilling, some joyful, some relaxed, and some numb.
Seeing Liu Yu and Sivana coming in, they seemed to be a little surprised, and one of the miners, who may have been the leader, quickly stood up, made a gesture to the miners, and then walked up, "Two adults, haven't you already taken away yesterday's magic crystal?" Today has just begun, and we have just started working, and there are not many magic crystals! β
Although looking at him, he regarded Liu Yu and Shivana as members of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, but in Liu Yu's induction, he found that this was not the case. Raising his eyebrows, Liu Yu asked, "What's your name, are you a resident of Lockfar?" β
The man put his hands to his sides with a slight restraint and said, "Yes, my name is Tydamir, and I am a resident of Lockfar. β
"The tunnel in the mine outside has collapsed, you bring a group of people to dredge up there......" Liu Yu was about to say that they should go home, but he knew that the sword flashed in front of him, he immediately took a step back, and Shivana on the side stepped forward and grabbed one of Tydamir's hands, which held a rudimentary dagger in his black hand.
"Leave me alone, everyone killed them, everyone died, what's the point of us living? Continue in this dark place, relying on the blood and sweat of the day in exchange for those few pieces of bread? Do you hear that, the mine tunnel outside has collapsed, our plan has succeeded, and although we can't bury the two executioners alive, they will definitely not be able to get out! The big guy had the intention of dying with these bastards, and now what are you afraid of, go on, avenge your loved ones with your own hands, even if it is worth exchanging your life for a piece of their flesh and blood......" The Tedamir struggled without listening while inciting the miners in a heart-rending manner.
Liu Yu looked at the anger on Tydamir's face that had nowhere to vent, and understood that he obviously knew the fact that all the other people in Lockfa Town had died, and he was already lifeless at the moment, so he planned to fight to the death to avenge his family. Liu Yu admired the other party's courage very much, but doubted the other party's vision.
Hearing what Tedamir said, the other miners also picked up the tools in their hands, looked at Liu Yu and Shivana with hateful eyes, and walked step by step. Shivana's face did not change, she was not afraid of these non-professionals, but she was shocked by the dead silence of the other party.
These people all carried such a powerful hatred, cold and crazy sadness, this strange and consistent hatred, made their momentum all twist together, forming a huge icy pressure. As the owner of the dragon bloodline, Shivana has dragon power, and can be immune to most mental suppression, but at this time, she can clearly feel the other party's sadness and determination to die.
This young nobleman seems to be very kind, and he shouldn't kill them...... Shivana closed her eyes and ignored her emotions at the moment, and then threw out the Tedamir in her hand, and said coldly: "We are not from the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, even if you want to take revenge, you have chosen the wrong person. β
Glancing at Shivana, Liu Yu smiled and said lightly: "The personnel sent here by the Shurima Chamber of Commerce have been killed by us, and we originally planned to come in and rescue you......"
Tydamir, who was thrown out by Sivana, shouted unwillingly: "Impossible, you are deceiving us, how can they die, you must have said this in order to let us open the mine." We are just a bunch of lowly miners, how could you come to us, you are simply deceiving us. β
In the midst of Tedamir's roar, several miners threw their digging tools at Liu Yu, and Shivana drew her sword with a few thuds, and the weapons were knocked to the ground. "Believe it or not, hurry up, you're the last survivors of Lockfar, and I don't want to see a small town disappear."
Liu Yu has always been pitiful to these people, although this sentiment is somewhat hypocritical. Shaking his head, Liu Yu no longer bothered with the suspicious miners, and led Shivana back, he had been notified of everything he should have notified, and it was their business whether the other party wanted to go out or not. Liu Yu and Sivana walked to the side, and after the mining was finished, in the abandoned mine, Liu Yu once again used his divine mind to start analyzing the terrain here, to see where was the closest place to the outside, so as to facilitate the passage.
In the cave hall where the miners were on the other side, a miner couldn't help but ask, "Tydamir, should we go and open the tunnel?" "Not everybody wants to die that much, or they wouldn't be alive this day.
"Let's open the mine, and those two will leave!" Tedamir said unwillingly.
There was a moment of silence in the cave hall, and an older miner spoke, "What if what they say is true, Tydamir?" Did they really kill those people and avenge us? β
"Are they deceiving us?" Tedamir roared, he didn't believe it at all.
"Tedamir, calm down, the other party is a professional and can force us to open the way, but they have never hurt anyone, which is completely different from the group of people from the Shurima Chamber of Commerce."
"We're not afraid of death, but we don't want to die like this, Tedamir, do you understand?"

"This place?" Liu Yu knocked on the rock wall, carefully discerning the sound of the tapping.
Shivana asked, "What's wrong?" β
"There's weirdness." Liu Yu frowned and said, just now, he scanned the entire mining area, and was surprised to find that if he excavated dozens of centimeters downward, the rock wall would be empty.
"It's empty behind this?" After listening to Liu Yu's brief description, Shivana's eyes lit up and asked, "The passage you left?" β
"It may or may not be." Liu Yu is not sure.
Sivana no longer doubted Liu Yu's magic, she raised her giant sword and asked, "What is the depth of the wall?" β
"Thirty-seven centimeters."
Under Liu Yu's guidance, the sound of clanging sounded in the mine. Ten minutes later, Shivana suddenly stopped, and she looked at one side of the mine, as if she had made a discovery. Liu Yu knew the situation from the beginning and sat patiently.
It didn't take long for several miners to appear in front of them, and they looked at Liu Yu and Sivana with fear and tangled emotions in their eyes. One of the miners at the head was an older miner, "Hello, we have decided to re-dig the passage, and it is expected to take five days. β
Liu Yu looked at them and smiled: "Do you know what's going on here?" I think there's probably some other passage here. Liu Yu pointed to a rock wall that had been carved out by Shivana.
Several miners glanced at each other, thought for a moment, and answered Liu Yu's question: "This mine has long been abandoned, and it is said that there are the unjust souls of miners decades ago in it. β
"Can you send a few people over and dig here, there is only a thin layer of rock wall left, and it won't take much time."
"Okay." The miners agreed to Liu Yu's request. After a while, more than a dozen miners walked in with tools, and they got to work. Because they are all professional tools for excavation, and the miners are all professional veterans, it didn't take much time for a small hole to appear in the rock wall.
"There's something in there!" The cave opened, and a smell of decay came from the other side of the rock wall, and several miners who were digging were surprised. "We've been digging here for more than ten years, why haven't we found this passage?"
Liu Yu did not say. With a new passage, the miners had some motivation, and their speed increased, and soon, the size of the hole in the rock wall was enough for a man to bend through.
"Shivana, you go first." Liu Yu handed a torch to Shivana. This torch is not used for lighting, but for judging whether the air inside can make people move normally. When Sivana heard this order, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but she did not refuse, took the torch, and bent over to the other side of the rock wall. "What's going on?" Liu Yu asked.
Shivana's voice came from the other side indistinctly, "A storeroom, things have been left for a long time, many of them are rotten, and there is a door, which is locked, but the iron door is rusty, and it will be opened with a kick." There are some bones outside, which have turned into white bones, and there is no danger at present. β
Liu Yu listened to Sivana's introduction, and felt that he might have found an underground palace, either a tomb or a secret cave, because the mine road would take five days to open, Liu Yu hesitated, then took out a lot of food and drinking water from the storage space, and handed it to those miners, "This is our surplus food, your food should not be abundant, digging a passage, it takes a lot of physical strength." β
The miners were stunned, but it was still Liu Yu's food next.
"If you want to enter this passage, you need to call a few more people, although you can't see any danger at the moment, but you should be careful, and there are many carnivores below." After a few simple instructions, Liu Yu walked into the cave. The miners were left behind, with bags of food, standing there at a loss.
"Perhaps, they really helped us get revenge." For a long time, the old miner said leisurely, his sigh heavy.
"Let's open the mine first, I don't know what's in here, but even if there is treasure, it can't be what we get, I just hope to be able to go out and go home."
"Uncle, maybe someone in the town will be alive." A miner cried out in comfort.
The older miner looked up, tears streaming down his face, silent sadness. Everyone else was silent.
"Let's go back, it's better to open the mine as soon as possible, at least we can see the sun before we die."
