Chapter 846 The Miners (2/2)
”We have no other choice, you see. We have been mining here for so many years and have consumed too much of our spiritual energy. We need to eat to replenish it, and then we found this monkey, so now here we are.”
”This monkey would help us replenish our spiritual energy
this to me? You even pretended that you don't know me while I was being boiled alive?! I'm leaving. Goodbye.”
With one last glare, Barnes flew up in the air, landing on a tall tree, and then jumping on to another, and then another, until he was gone.
Darren shook his head and ignored him.
But Barnes hadn't really left yet. He was simply lying on a big tree, keeping his sharp eyes trained on one direction. Gentle black smoke floated from his head.
'It almost ruined my plans, but it turns out my business is just over there, ' Barnes thought.
Darren was talking with the men.
The men were all kneeling down in front of him.
”Sir, can you truly save us?”
Darren lifted them gently back to their feet. ”Of course, now get up.”
The men were thrilled to hear such confidence from him. They couldn't believe their luck to have stumbled upon such a strong man.
”Very well. Come with us, sir.”
They led the way to the mines with Darren following right behind them. They stopped when the ground beneath them turned brown-red.
The terrain was steep, gradually leading them to some mountains where dozens of caves were dug out.
Thousands of martial artists trudged along the caves. All of them were busy carrying out ores to and fro the caves.
”Sir, we have arrived.” An air of apprehension stirred over them. They couldn't help but wonder how Darren could possibly defeat their blue-skinned captors. If he failed, all of them would be executed.
In their hearts, they prayed that it would not come to that.
Suddenly, Darren dashed towards the mine.
Whoosh!
His presence alerted the guards. The alarms were raised.
”Someone is breaking in!”
