Annan is actually still a little relieved whether the players can really bring Selicia back smoothly.

Celisia is in the underworld, but she is a real celebrity.

- "The digger of diggers", "Poppy beauty of deep rocks", strong, free and beautiful, not greedy or cowardly, lustful and lucky enough...... Young people who are determined to follow their dreams and never stop exploring new worlds.

There is no doubt that she is a superstar who is fully in line with the values of the underworld.

Regardless of gender, age...... Everybody wants to be Celicia, and everybody wants to get Celicia.

Every child has dreams of adventure.

Or magnificent as epic, or romantic and warm as a fairy tale.

But as they grew up, they realized that travel and adventure were not as good as they imagined, and that they had their own plans for life...... After realizing that he had no money, no time, no energy and no skills, this unrealistic dream of adventure naturally dissipated.

And the Silver Brigade is different.

They are the living legends.

It can even be said that the reason why many teenagers and girls want to become diggers is because of the infection of Selicia.

If there had been a unified government in the underworld, Celicia would have become a spokesperson-level high-level figure - a large sum of money just to keep them on their adventures.

Because if the story of the "Silver Brigade" ends here, it may even indirectly affect the slowdown and stagnation of the development of the underground world.

Diggers weren't meant to be an easy job.

Not even the word "dangerous" can perfectly summarize it.

A set of exploration equipment, including lanterns and anchor points, as well as enough food and water for a week—not to mention tents, not even sleeping bags.

If you want extra equipment, you can buy it at one of the designated stores.

Including tents, sleeping bags, portable bandages, nutritional supplements, additional light sources, cut-resistant gloves and other series of equipment that "facilitate diggers to carry out exploration operations", the variety is quite complete, and the performance is indeed good.

But if you want to buy them all, it costs a lot of money. For example, goods such as bandages and light sources are more than twice as expensive as their counterparts on the ground.

You know, this is the most convenient underground world, the real "center of the world".

Because of the subway connecting various countries, the price of many goods here will not be much more expensive than the local specialty, and even much cheaper because of the huge import volume at one time. The underground world also has the "wise man" mechanism, which is the most intelligent among the power people of various countries - there is no one.

These wise men have indeed developed a lot of advanced equipment for exploration and excavation. The degree of sophistication is very high, and it is undoubtedly the world's leading level.

But the equipment used to sell to the majority of "amateur diggers" is not only not cheap, but more expensive; Not only is it more expensive, but it's even limited......

But in any case, the "diggers" are also the only way for those in the underworld who are not smart, talented, or highly educated to become big shots - it is essentially a gamble.

And from that point of view......

On the one hand, the wise men hope that the diggers can help them explore more land; On the other hand, they don't want the number of Diggers to become too large - at least to keep the overall number of Diggers less than the Wise Men.

Wise men hold many checkpoints such as law, medical care, and education...... But security, finance, and most importantly, the ownership of the city belonged to the diggers.

Generally speaking, diggers usually have a good idea of their own brains and do not interfere too much with the policies pursued by the wise men. If the diggers you are aiding are too stupid or tyrannical, the wise will just leave here.

So a city may not have wise men, but it must have diggers. Even if it sells its ownership to a wise man and makes the wise man also a digger, or if the original owner dies accidentally, it must have a digger. It's nothing more than whether the digger is in the city or not.

But in any case, one thing cannot be changed - the diggers are much richer than the wise.

Once the number of diggers is so large that there is more than one digger in some cities, the voice of the "wise man" in that city will decline significantly. The political structure of this underground city will become more and more similar to that of the city of the earthly kingdom...... The diggers will gradually become "lords", and the wise men will transform from "actual rulers" to "staff".

Therefore, what can they do...... It's about controlling the number of diggers.

How to control it?

Very simple...... It is to control the amount of "high-quality equipment" on the market.

Use the legend of Celicia to seduce a large number of teenagers who have no study, scientific research, and political talents, and cannot become the "wise" class to become diggers. At the same time, the amount of "high-quality equipment" circulating on the market is further controlled to ensure that only a small number of people can become diggers.

What about the rest?

Naturally, he died.

Each digger receives a ritual-positioned beacon each time they return to resupply, so that they can "save their progress" on their return journey.

The "disappearance" rate in the first month of the digger's departure alone was as high as 70%. On average, each digger is capable of installing less than three beacons.

In other words, diluted by the data of a large number of location beacons installed by many experienced diggers and the "exploration team" in the group, the vast majority of diggers still do not have the ability to return three times.

In the first month, many diggers will give up...... Or simply die in the lightless underground.

Once they lose their light source, they can't find their way back; In the exploration layer, where there are no maps and no buildings, only a mess of tunnels, you can get lost at any time - there is a high probability that there will not be enough food and water, and you may even be snatched by other diggers; Occasionally, some monsters will appear in the shallow layers of the exploration layer, and it is impossible for ordinary people to defeat them.

Their "romantic and great" exploration career, the mortality rate is even much higher than that of the battlefield.

And their survival rate is even strictly controlled - it is impossible to explore for something of value without equipment. After all, this is not a single-player game...... As long as their efficiency lags behind the same period, the "treasure" will be discovered first.

Of course, these young amateur diggers will gradually realize ...... This is the conspiracy of the wise. But if they live long enough, they can gradually gather a set of equipment...... For example, from the corpses of the deceased.

When they really became "diggers" and returned home, their positions immediately changed.

It's not just the wise who don't welcome the superfluous diggers, but even the diggers themselves don't want their kind to snatch their own power - the diggers are all equal. As long as there is one more person, it means that half of one's power will be divided; If there are two more diggers, you can even steal a city directly.

No matter how much they hated the conspiracy to "control the number of diggers", they will either actively or silently carry it out at that time.

This is a real meat grinder.

The tunnels were dug by the vast number of "pre-diggers". Generations of young people, exhausted their lives in search of wealth, can only become the "diggers" who are the first to insert coordinates at the destination.

If you're lucky, you might wake up sooner and come back with a life. If you are unlucky, you will turn into a pile of bones, and you will eventually be buried by the mother-in-law.

From this point of view.

Celicia may also be considered one of the killers, or at least an accomplice.

Even though she hadn't done anything herself, the tradition had been in place for generations before she entered the underworld...... But hateful survivors are unreasonable.

- Because of the deeds of the "Captain in the Stone" of Celicia, it has directly led to another "digger tide" in the underground world.

A large number of children have lost their parents.

A large number of parents have lost their children.

Wives who have lost their husbands, younger siblings who have lost their brothers...... While the underground world is ushering in an unprecedented wave of development, different tragedies are also being staged here.

In fact.

Someone who wants to kill Celicia...... Maybe a little more than anyone who fell in love with her.

Let alone......

Now Celicia has given up the power of fate brought to her by the treasure ship "Silver" and returned to the Silver Level.
