Chapter 243

"My god, wasn't the crisis already solved by the lords of the Ministry of Civil Affairs? How could someone still go missing?"

"It's Qi Ding. It has nothing to do with the lords of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He seems to have gone to look for some 【Gift of the Chasm】 and went missing. Is the situation from back then going to repeat itself?"

"Isn't that just fooling people? Since when was Qi Ding so stupid?"

"It's just that Qi Ding misses his daughter too much. Before the mine was sealed, he wanted to go down there, but he didn't have the chance. Now that The Chasm has reopened and the crisis has been mostly solved, he was able to come in again, so he thought about looking for this 【Gift of the Chasm】."

"Sigh."

When Lin Mo and Yelan went down to The Chasm and passed by the first camp stationed at the bottom, they heard a series of discussions.

They saw some miners not far away discussing the matter of Qi Ding.

"According to what Mu Ning said, it is that remote path, but that remote path has many monsters."

Yelan walked while speaking to Lin Mo beside her: "This has also led to the Millelith being unable to go deep to search, and some Millelith have even been injured."

"Mm."

Hearing Yelan's words, Lin Mo nodded: "The monsters here in The Chasm are indeed not simple; they are not something ordinary Millelith can deal with."

Lin Mo and Yelan spoke while walking toward the destination.

When they arrived, they saw several Millelith stationed here.

In the distance inside the path, several huge rock monsters were lying there quietly.

"My lords."

Seeing Lin Mo and Yelan arrive, these Millelith immediately walked up and said: "Those monsters inside seem unable to come out; I don't know the reason, but they have been guarding there. If you get close, you will be attacked immediately."

Ever since Qi Ding disappeared, they came to investigate immediately, but because of the obstruction of the monsters, they were unable to advance.

In the end, they could only decide to station here and blockade it, not letting other miners enter.

"I already know the detailed situation."

Hearing the words of these Millelith, Yelan nodded: "You can leave here first."

"Crack, crack, crack, crack."

As Yelan spoke, a series of freezing sounds suddenly rang out from thin air.

A cold chill descended, instantly felt by Yelan and the Millelith.

They saw that Lin Mo had already stepped into the depths of the passage; wherever he passed, the white mist covering his body instantly roamed and froze everything around him.

Whether it was the rocks on the ground, the rock walls, or those dormant rock monsters, they were all instantly frozen on the spot.

Under the gaze of the Millelith, the rock monsters that had left them helpless all day were directly frozen on the spot by a force of extreme cold, and then they were shattered silently by Lin Mo's light tap.

"This."

"So strong!"

"Is this lord a Cryo Vision holder?"

Seeing this scene, the Millelith gasped.

This lord was a bit too strong; he actually solved the rock monsters that had troubled them all day so easily.

Even though they had seen Cryo Vision holders, they didn't seem to have seen such a situation.

However, they didn't see this young lord possess a Cryo Vision either.

Is this a lord from the Ministry of Civil Affairs?

Subconsciously, the Millelith looked at Yelan's Hydro Vision beside them.

They recalled again that they really didn't seem to see a Cryo Vision on Lin Mo just now.

【Your Ancient Mirror Reflects the Divine has attracted the attention of others; Influence +1】

【Your Ancient Mirror Reflects the Divine has caused shock in others; Influence +2】

【Your Ancient Mirror Reflects the Divine has caused worship in others; Influence +3】

While the Millelith were shocked, Lin Mo, who had already solved the rock monsters, also saw the prompts appearing on the virtual panel.

However, Lin Mo didn't care; these influence points were too few.

Lin Mo was not happy about Ancient Mirror Reflects the Divine solving the monsters here.

Immediately, Yelan also walked over and followed Lin Mo's pace.

As the two went deeper, they quickly solved many monsters and seemed to have reached the end of the passage.

Here, there was also a small, tattered tent.

And in front of the tent, a man was standing in front of the rock wall with dull eyes, looking at the wall and muttering: "Where is it, where is it."

"... Where did I lose it."

"If I can't find it."

"Sigh..."

"Found it."

Seeing this man, Yelan narrowed her eyes: "Qi Ding."

When she went down to The Chasm, she had learned what Qi Ding looked like from Mu Ning.

"Such a heavy smell of gunpowder."

Compared to Yelan who recognized Qi Ding, Lin Mo instantly smelled an extremely rich smell of gunpowder.

"Indeed."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Yelan nodded.

It was indeed a rich smell of gunpowder.

"Qi Ding, we are here to find you; it's time to leave now."

Yelan looked at Qi Ding and said: "Can you hear me?"

For Yelan, since she had found Qi Ding, she had to take him away.

"I, I can't leave."

Hearing Yelan's words, Qi Ding's eyes were confused: "I lost something here; I must find it back."

"I, I don't want to go back to the camp."

"If I haven't found my thing, I won't go back."

Hearing this, Yelan frowned: "Then what are you looking for?"

"I, I am looking for a toy."

Qi Ding muttered: "Just a doll, the size of a palm."

"After I went down to the mine once, I lost it."

"A doll the size of a palm?"

Hearing this, Yelan frowned: "A toy? You brought a toy down to the mine?"

Which miner would bring a toy down to the mine?

"I, I know it sounds a bit strange."

Qi Ding seemed to have come to his senses and stammered: "But I was afraid that the doll would be lost."

"You don't know how hard it is to buy that doll; the price is terrifyingly high, and every time the Feiyun Commerce Guild has a new batch of goods, I am in the mine, so I can't buy it even if I want to."

"But my daughter saw another child holding one last time and couldn't move. My daughter, she knows the family situation is not good, and she never says what she wants."

"But how could a father not know what his child wants?"

"So I just asked someone I know to buy one from the Feiyun Commerce Guild and sent it to the mine. I carried it with me, not daring to lose it."

"For your daughter?"

Hearing Qi Ding's words, Yelan understood why Qi Ding was so persistent.

Everything was because of family.

In the days of mining, this was a hope.

"Sigh."

At this moment, Qi Ding sighed: "Those of us who mine earn little to begin with, and most of it is used to subsidize the family. There isn't much left, and buying this doll cost quite a bit."
