"ah?"

After digging twice with the pickaxe, Kaji was startled by the movement in front of him.

The feel of this iron pickaxe is exactly the same as an ordinary pickaxe.

But when it hits the ground, it makes a weird sound, and the touch is not the feedback that normal tools would have.

What happened next was even more incomprehensible to Kaji.

The soil under his feet was knocked twice by this weird pickaxe, and a square clod of soil appeared inexplicably, as neatly as if someone had cut it out with a knife!

This phenomenon has gone beyond Kaji’s common sense as an awakened person!

"Lord Diavolo?"

Kaji looked at Lindsay blankly.

At this time, he noticed that the man beside him took out another pickaxe.

However, unlike the one in Kaji's hand, the surface of Lindsay's pickaxe shimmered with a flaming crimson color. You could tell at a glance that it was no ordinary item!

Lindsay explained calmly:

"Don't make a fuss and keep digging."

"This pickaxe is a newly developed technology in Volcano City."

"If you reveal it, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"..."

After hearing such a reason, how could Kaji dare to continue asking?

Then, under Lindsay's command, the Perceptor swung the pickaxe downwards, and he dug out the mud chunks one by one, which were then put into Lindsay's bag.

Kaji was secretly surprised.

Props with space storage functions can only be made by craftsmen with a very high level of skills, and the price must be at least a hundred gold coins.

If the number of items that can be accommodated is larger, the corresponding price will increase even more.

With Lindsay's exaggerated ability to store clods of soil...

Kaji swallowed with a dry throat and immediately had a picture in his mind.

This is a young man from Volcano City who is well-informed, not afraid of the seven-stage awakeners, and has strong financial resources!

Putting the above conditions together, the identity of the other party will definitely not be simple.

Kaji thought of himself again.

If he can serve this man well, maybe tonight's unfortunate experience can become an opportunity for him!

Thinking of this, Kaji became really motivated.

The frequency of swinging the pickaxe in his hand increased and he became more focused while working.

The tunnel that the two men dug downward was not a vertical tunnel, but a slope downwards, which was deflected 90 degrees to the left at intervals to ensure the accuracy of the direction.

Another few minutes passed.

With this upright and serious attitude, Kaji's perceptor skills suddenly made him discover some clues.

After they penetrated more than 100 meters underground.

The surrounding soil is obviously more yellow than the one above, and it feels slightly softer to the touch.

It feels as if someone had hollowed out the mountain not long ago and then refilled it with soil!

Kaji was startled and immediately looked at Lindsay next to him:

"Lord Diavolo, can I ask? Where are we digging?"

Lindsay asked rhetorically:

"Did you forget who we were tracking?"

"..."

Kaji wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and forced himself to control his mood:

"Sir, why are you looking for those two seventh-stage awakened people? They just caused a war in Jiuwan City not long ago. Now that you are looking for them, don't you think this kind of thing is too dangerous?"

Lindsay said:

"For more than a month before, the forest in the Forest Garden has been experiencing abnormal changes, and you and the adventurers have been trapped here because of this. Do you know the real reason why all this happened? ?”

Kaji asked cautiously:

"But...hasn't the anger of the forest subsided?"

"And this week, the situation in the forest is getting better and better, and it is no longer as restless as before."

Lindsay nodded:

"Yes, the last crisis is indeed over."

"But the root of all the problems has not been solved. If you don't want this to happen again, you have to talk to them."

"..." The meaning behind Lindsay's words——

Is he going to stop two awakened people in the seventh stage?

Kaji suddenly woke up and said bravely:

"IMHO."

"Lord Diavolo, if they want to do something, with our abilities, it is absolutely impossible to stop them."

Lindsay shook her head slightly:

"There are still many secrets in this matter, and they are not as absolute as what you see."

"..."

At this point, the two stopped the topic silently.

They continued digging deeper into the ground.

The depth even exceeds the area where the Echo Tunnel is distributed.

Without air movement, the air underground becomes stuffy and makes people feel dizzy when they breathe it.

Lindsay pulled open the map and looked at it.

They were only about 10 meters away from the closed cavity below.

"Kaji, I will walk in front next, and you will follow me."

Kaji immediately retreated to the back and top of the slope obediently, nodded nervously and asked:

"Are we almost there?"

"That's right." Lindsay confirmed Kaji's guess, and then added, "Kaji, if you want to run away now, I won't stop you. The next thing is very serious, you'd better not do it Some actions that may cause misunderstanding.”

——You can run away by yourself.

Hearing such an answer from Lindsay, Kaji was naturally a little moved.

But when he looked at the back of Lindsay who was still digging down in front of him, he hesitated unconsciously.

His hesitation was not because he wanted to save the safety of the forest courtyard.

But after he had just realized Lindsay's identity as an "important person in Volcano City", he was a little reluctant to cut ties with such an existence.

For an ordinary awakened person.

Being able to meet such a big shot is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Even something you can chase with your safety on the line!

Snap——

While Kaji was still hesitating, Lindsay in front moved very quickly.

Under the frequent waving of the fiery red light of the meteorite pickaxe, pieces of soil were disappearing rapidly.

Digging down for another few meters.

Click!

Accompanied by the sound of soil being dug up, a piece of the ground beneath Lindsay's feet simply disappeared.

What follows is no longer soft soil.

Instead, it was a dark skylight that reached into the cave below.

Buzz——

Almost at the same time.

A faint golden light flickered from below, and along with it, there was a figure that revealed firmness in its weakness:

"Kid, get behind me."

"No matter what happens, don't come out!"

"..."

——It’s Han Sike.

His experience in Cape Lookout City made Lindsay immediately recognize the owner of the voice, and he quickly said:

"Is that Mr. Han Sike down there? We don't mean any harm!"

"..."

After Lindsay spoke, the light of law below paused.

After waiting for a few more seconds, Han Sike's weak voice sounded intermittently:

"You...are not from Moon?"

"who are you?"
