Chapter 115: Humans in the Mine

“It’s fine. At most, Leader will go to the stargate and catch some more.”
The Forest race member said with an indifferent expression.
“That’s true. The stargates have no lack of these humans.”
The conversation between the two of them did not take humans seriously at all as if they were just ants.
In the mine, a group of thin humans were holding tools and digging continuously.
It looked like they had not eaten for a long time. However, there was a burly man who was obviously different from the people around him.
“The Forest race will not enter this mine at all. This is our chance.”
The burly man’s tone was calm as he spoke to the others around him.
“Even though they won’t enter, we don’t have the strength to continue mining.” The man beside the burly man said with a bitter smile.
On the surface, no one was supervising them. However, once there were not enough ores, the foreign races above would let in some Treants and attack the humans in the mine.
As long as there were enough ores, they could still survive.
After all, they were just ordinary people and were no match for the foreign races outside who controlled the treants.
“As long as we dig a tunnel out of here and escape from this place, we might be safe.
“Of course, we can’t let them send the Treants in again. As long as the Treants don’t come in, we have a chance.”
The burly man said with a serious expression.
“Take a chance?”
The burly man looked at the others around him with a questioning expression.
“Let’s do it. We’ll die of exhaustion here sooner or later!”
“That’s right, this is indeed an opportunity!”
When everyone heard the man’s words, they gritted their teeth and said fiercely.
“Alright, but we still have to give them enough ores. Otherwise, once they release the Treants, we won’t be able to stop them at all.” The burly man said solemnly.
“Old Zhang, don’t worry. I’ll take care of your share.”
The man at the side patted his chest. Wasn’t it just mining more ores? As long as there was a chance to get out, this was nothing.
“In that case, five of you come and dig a tunnel with me. The rest of you, continue mining.”
Zhang Xiang nodded and said to the crowd. Then, he selected five people to dig a tunnel with him. As for the others, they continued to mine ores.
On the other side, Song Yubai led 100 soldiers into Desolate Forest and began to search for the Forest race.
Many members of the Forest race used their ability to manipulate trees to move around. If they ventured into the forest, they would be easily spotted.
As for the Forest race’s ability to burrow underground, they would not use it often because burrowing underground would consume a large amount of spiritual energy in their bodies.
“My lord, we discovered some traces. I suspect it’s the Forest race!”
After searching for a long time, a soldier suddenly returned and reported to Song Yubai.
“Traces?”
Hearing the soldiers’ words, Song Yubai asked him to lead the way. He did not expect to discover the Forest race so soon.
After all, the Desolate Forest was huge. It was not easy to find traces of them.
This was also the direction that Xu Chu had told him.
At that time, Xu Chu had encountered a figure suspected to be from the Forest race in.
Under the lead of the soldiers, Song Yubai realized that many of the surrounding trees had been destroyed, and there were strange marks on the ground.
“It appears somewhat like the marks left by a large tree moving, but…
Song Yubai scrutinized the marks on the ground. They resembled tree roots moving across the earth, leaving relatively deep imprints. However, there was a subtle difference, and the pattern appeared quite disorganized.
“My lord, some foreign race corpses have been discovered ahead.”
At that moment, a soldier exclaimed and Song Yubai walked toward him.
Most of the trees were destroyed. Other than that, there were dozens of short, brownish-yellow corpses of foreign races.
“Looks like I’m right.”
When he saw the corpses, Song Yubai felt glad. They should be the corpses of the Forest race, but he did not know why they were here.
“My lord, it seems the ground has been marked by someone. It resembles the palm print of a giant.”
The soldiers at the side looked around and said with confusion.
Apart from the wreckage of trees and corpses, the entire ground appeared to have been imprinted by a colossal force, sending shivers down the soldiers’ spines.
Hearing this, Song Yubai frowned.
“Could there be another foreign race like the giants in Desolate Forest?” Although Song Yubai thought so, he didn’t dwell on it.
What he did not know was that this huge handprint was formed by Xuan Ci’s King Kong Strike.
“Let’s move on. Since the corpses are here, it means the Forest race should be nearby.”
Song Yubai ordered the soldiers to commence an investigation, using this location as the central point.
Just as Song Yubai continued to search for the location of the Forest race…
Outside Green Lotus City, Xu Chu and a group of soldiers were constantly digging.
“Mr. Guo, are you sure this will work?”
Xu Chu looked at the Mystic Yang soldiers digging outside Green Lotus City and asked helplessly.
The foreign races were no ordinary beings. How could setting up such a trap be effective? Even Xu Chu could likely escape from the pit with all his might.
“Don’t worry, it will definitely work.”
Guo Jia smiled. Although it was just an ordinary pit, its effect was more than that.
This pit was a small gift he had prepared for the Forest race. The bigger gift had yet to come.
“After all the holes are dug, come and find me. I’ll assign you a mission.” After Guo Jia finished speaking to Xu Chu, he entered the city gate.
“This…’
Xu Chu looked at Guo Jia and could not understand what he was thinking.
He glanced at the Mystic Yang soldiers who were digging and then back at the seemingly ordinary pit, growing even more perplexed.
After Guo Jia walked into Green Lotus City, he looked for Xu Ding.
Ever since Xu Ding obtained the new cultivation technique, he had been focused on it, wanting to break through to the Innate realm as soon as possible.
Apart from that, he would occasionally patrol the city. When Guo Jia found Xu Ding, he was indeed doing so.
“Mr. Guo?”
When Xu Ding saw Guo Jia looking for him alone, he revealed a surprised expression.
“Xu Ding, come with me.”
Guo Jia brought him to the entrance of the small courtyard.
“Mr. Guo, is there a problem in the Creation Camp?”
When Xu Ding was brought to the Creation Camp by Guo Jia, he asked with a puzzled expression.
“No, I need you to arrange a few things.”
Guo Jia shook his head and said.
Then, he noticed there was no space in the courtyard, causing him to furrow his brow..
