"Uncle Gniel, stop digging. You are not a mage and have not studied engineering. What are you doing for digging those broken crystals?"

(???)

Of course, Annie also saw the yellow crystals on the hole walls with rich magic light shining with fluorescent magic, but she didn't care about those things containing energy.

Similar things, such as when she was in the Kepru Star Zone, she had seen more pure high-energy crystals, etc., so how could she look at these boring things that were yellow and mixed with various magazines?

"Of course it's selling money!"

"I'll be fine soon!"

Click! Click!

Gniel said this without looking back, and continued to try hard, and kept smashing the stone wall with the tip of his gun, causing strange noises to come from the entire dark tunnel.

"Sell money?"

(?ˊ)????

"That's so troublesome..."

ε=(′ο｀*))) Alas

"Come on, wait until you look back and I'll give you a lot of gold!"

(ˉ▽￣～～)Cut

Anne glanced at him disdainfully, then patted Tibers' head and continued to take the lead.

Queen Anne never lacks money, nor does she care about boring energy crystals. She doesn't want to take a look at those things that cannot be eaten or fun.

"Genier!"

"Stop digging!"

"Come on!!"

Seeing Anne taking the lead in walking forward, thinking of the other party's ability, thinking about the hundreds of Imperial soldiers guarding the bridge before, Aimeda finally didn't say much, but urged Gniel, who was still busy behind, to chase Matthew.

“!!”

“Hey?”

"You guys wait for me!"

As Anne took the lead and continued to move forward, as the light gradually dimmed, seeing Aimeda, Matthew and Sonia followed Anne forward, seeing that she could not easily dig the crystals embedded in the hole wall with her spear. There was no way, Gniel, who did not want to be left behind, had to give up temporarily and chase after her.

"Anne!"

"A lot of gold?"

"You said this, didn't lie to me..."

Then, while dragging his spear to chase after him, Gniel of course did not forget to ask such a question.

After all, he knew that the little girl was a powerful arcane wizard and was super rich. She gave them a lot of gold coins last time. If she waited until the commission was completed and another pile of them was given to them, it seemed that he really didn't have to risk beheading the head to dig those magic crystals embedded in the stone wall?

soon!

Another half an hour later...

Five people and one bear finally arrived at the deepest part of the cave.

It is spacious, but it has become even more stuffy, and the air is very muddy and dull, and there is a strange smell.

"So smelly!"

(ー`′ー)

Anne smelled a stinking smell, but she had to bite her teeth and continue moving forward.

“!!”

"ah!"

“?!”

Not long after, Aimeda, Matthew and Sonia all stopped in exclamation.

Because, they saw, in the innermost part of this huge spacious cave, in the direction they were moving, they saw a huge hideous monster that was sleeping loudly!

"That……"

“That’s…”

"Yes, what's the thing?"

Gniel looked at the magma pool lying in front of him and was sleeping soundly. Seeing that he was huge and his claw could probably instantly slap him into a meat pie. Then, his body was covered with thick scales, with a pair of huge horns on his head, and there seemed to be strong wings behind him, and his long tail had a terrible thing of sharp barbs. He was so scared that he even spoke a little unscrupulously.

"Shh!"

"That's one end..."

"dragon!"

"Genier, you'd better whisper..."

"Don't wake it up..."

Matthew touched Gniel's back immediately, and while scaring the other party, he reached out and covered the other party's mouth tightly.

“…”

Sonia didn't say anything, just swallowed, then slowly retreated and pressed the hilt of the sword around her waist, hoping to create more security for herself.

No wonder, since she just came in, she always felt something was wrong here, and she was also curious why this mine rich in Magic Crystal Mine was abandoned.

Now she finally understood that there was such a terrible monster sleeping here?

Although, dragons are not the most powerful creatures on this Erusalia continent, and dragon-slaying heroes are everywhere, but...

There is no doubt that things like dragons must be the kind of existence that stand at the top of the food chain and strength. If possible, Sonia did not want to provoke them easily, especially in this narrow terrain and only five of them and one bear.

"Red..."

"That should be a fire dragon!"

"Although it doesn't look very big, it shouldn't be completely adult, but..."

"Matthew!"

"Genier!"

"Let's go out quickly, remember to move lighter..."

At this moment, Aimeda's voice trembled a little.

However, she still tried to judge the situation in front of her with a composure, and at the same time she did not forget to step forward and patted the two of them on the shoulders, intending to let everyone retreat carefully from here.

"So what's wrong?"

Σ(°△°)︴

"Ah! What is that?"

?˙?˙)

As everyone stopped again, Annie, who had just run to another magma pool and didn't know what to look at, ran back again. After turning the corner of the rock wall, she saw a big guy who scared Aimeda, Sonia and others so much that she didn't dare to move.

"It's a dragon!"

"Anne, hurry!"

"Let's run while it doesn't find it!"

"Let's go some other way..."

Aimeda whispered and stepped back step by step, fearing that his actions would wake up the terrifying behemoth.

Although Aimeda is also very imagining about the dragon-slaying hero, she knows her own abilities and knows what Matthew and Gniel are. So, their best choice now is to travel as far as they can!

“Exit?”

(lll￢￢)

“Look for the way again?”

(′～`●)

Anne walked up, looked at the people whose teeth were trembling involuntarily, then looked at the big lizard in front of her that blocked her way, and then quickly made up her mind.

“Where is it that trouble?”

o(′▽｀)o =3 =3

Then, without thinking, she jumped off Teebos' shoulder and trotted towards her short legs.

“!!”

"Ann, Anne!"

"don't want!"
