Chapter 605

The exploration of the underground mining area is boring and mechanical, which easily wears down people's patience.

Because only Lumine and Paimon entered the mouth of the Chasm on this trip, the entire mining cave presented an atmosphere that was quiet to the point of being dead silent.

Fortunately, the underground is different from the surface, and the scenery can be considered beautiful; enjoying the scenery along the way is better than nothing.

"If only it were as beautiful as Enkanomiya here," Paimon said with regret.

Lumine rolled her eyes at her.

You have the nerve to say that; Enkanomiya is where the people of the White Night Kingdom lived; is it comparable to a simple mining cave?

The two are completely different styles and levels.

Along the way, because nothing unexpected was found, the vigilance of the two dropped slightly.

"It seems that the Liyue side's cleanup work is done well," Lumine thought thoughtfully.

At least in the places on the map, you can't find "087" a single monster; even if it has been blocked for a period of time, you still haven't encountered danger.

The safe time didn't last long; when they walked to the main mining area, they suddenly found something wrong.

From a certain moment, the breath permeating the air was no longer quiet and cool, but full of an ominous and evil taste, and a nauseating smell drifted from afar.

At the same time, the originally normal stone walls had a touch of purple at some point.

Purple itself represents nobility, but the purple in the depths of the mining cave was full of ominous malice.

Lumine's face gradually became solemn; as the two gradually deepened, the purple on the stone walls became heavier and heavier, until it slowly presented strips of sparse veins extending from the depths.

These veins were like blood vessels, circling and connecting the entire depths of the Chasm.

Before they had walked halfway through the main mining area of the Chasm, groups of purple blocks that looked like hearts appeared occasionally on the top of the mining cave, the stone walls, and the ground, changing constantly like breathing, which was chilling.

"What are those things?!" Paimon exclaimed.

Lumine shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.

The two gradually became silent; as they walked deeper, those "purple hearts" became more numerous.

It was as if some evil creature was invading the mining cave, thereby deriving one heart after another.

"Lumine, I have a bad premonition."

Keqing had never said that there were such things under the mining cave.

It seems that during the closure period, abnormalities really appeared.

Or rather, the closure was because these things were discovered.

No wonder they didn't dare to open the mining cave directly; they needed to block it for so long, even if it implicated many industries in Liyue, they didn't care.

Sighing gently, the two looked at each other and firmly moved forward toward the depths.

Since she promised Keqing to help check the abnormalities inside while searching for clues, Lumine would never break her promise.

As the ominous taste became heavier, the two finally came to a location that looked like a stone hall.

In their line of sight, there was a pitch-black passage leading to the deeper underground in the center, and evil black mud around it that hindered outsiders from entering.

The black mud was like a tide, blocking all nearby locations and flowing wantonly on the surface.

Paimon's face was a little ugly: "We don't seem to be able to move forward."
