Chapter 272 North Slope Mine

The further down into the mine, the more humid the environment became

Sylvie was holding up a torch and gingerly evading the drop of water falling towards her head as she led the group further into the ht, her Eye of Truth wasn’t so that could be stopped by the darkness Thus she ic power

“There is another fork in the road,” Nightingale alking at the front said after she stopped, “Which cave is this already?”

“Twenty-third after passing the first fork fro answered, as she took a look at the records

“I hope this is the last one,” Sylvie gruic eye, “The left side… spreads away froht side… is the same”

Lightning wrote down the results then announced, “In that case, those caverns were also the last gates we had to inspect”

“Coale said and went fro everyone back It didn't seem that her ability was as sies in Nightingales’ ure or 's introduction, she was the strongest fighting witch

This may also be the reason why Roland had her to follow them There were rumors that the mine had once been a nest for ancient monsters, and there had already been several events of hness had also told them several times that they had to be careful and that in case they couldn't determine the situation, they should first exit the mine and report back to him

However, Sylvie couldn't accept this as correct There existed no ic eye, even those ani soft-bodied snakes within the walls were clearly visible to her

There were four people in the expedition teairl called Lucia Every time they found some minerals, she would convert the them she would put them into her pocket, which would later be handed over to His Royal Highness

Lightning was responsible for drawing the map of the mine, since in her oords, there didn't exist any adventure fro her prideful speech, Sylvie couldn't help but think of the captain as te Island

The 23rd cave was at the lower level of the arded as an enor several hundred steps into the ain, and after following each to their end, they would once again split into several branches However, since they were at the exterior area of thesite, with only the rare possibility of find any veins, they had decided to end their exploration

Returning to the first fork, which Lightning had recorded as ”Gate of Life”, Sylvie cast her ability to observe the 23rd cave and the circumstances of those three pathways

The further she spread the range of her Eye of Truth, the greater the ic consumption was, and the heavier the burden on her body So she decided to observe one channel after another at each fork

“Cave nu areas at the end of it There are… ” she spent aone that see a detour”

“Doards?” Lightning repeated

“It is indeed like that,” Sylvie confir until the slender doards leading path turned around a corner and pointed straight back at thethe road, hersense of dizziness which interrupted her contact with her ic eye, “I think it may lead to a mineral deposit”

But this interpretation was a bit far-fetched, the North Slope Mine's tangled and co which had been artificially dug out Further for ore, it would be unlikely she'd have discovered any unknown veins, even if they were hidden between two channels If not for her Eye of Truth which was able to penetrate any obstacle, it would be simply impossible to find any minerals hidden behind rocks and under piles of mud

“No ale said, and shrugged her shoulders

The group entered the cave behind the third gate one after another, and about a quarter of an hour later they had already arrived at the end of the passage

There the tunnel divided itself into five like she had seen it One a them was even so narrow that it was ih and so it could only be entered by crawling However, the strange channel Sylvie had seen before was located in the ed dra a deep slope when co now

“It seeale said and held up the torch, “I feel as if this grotto is somewhat sie”
