Chapter 698 Accepting the Commission
This inexplicable strange phenomenon was like a dark cloud, lingering over the miners' hearts. If it continued like this, Yuehui felt that he would not be able to hold on any longer.
After hearing what Yue Hui said, Paimeng also became curious. He tilted his head, thinking non-stop in his little head, and then said: "Do the hillbillies also have curiosity? Will they just come here to take a look..."
Paimon tried to understand the behavior of the Hillock people from a common sense perspective, but it always seemed to make no sense. After all, they all knew very well that the Hillock people were usually a group of simple-minded creatures who only knew how to act on instinct. Most of them lived by plundering and destroying, and rarely had such strange and purposeful behavior. Moreover, the Layered Rock Abyss should be a place full of dangers and unknowns for them. According to common sense, they would not go there for no reason.
After hearing what Paimeng said, Yuehui shook his head and his expression became more solemn. "No, the weird thing is that he found that the hillbillies who came to the Layered Abyss... always "only go in and never come out". Those hillbillies always move in one direction, and they never come out after entering."
Yue Hui's voice was low and slow, and every word seemed to carry a heavy pressure, "Similar situations have become more frequent during this period. "What exactly is the goal of those hillbillies?", "What happened to them later?", "Are they brewing some disaster?" These thoughts kept appearing in the minds of the miners, and many of them were scared to death. "His eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness. He felt the fear of the miners, but he had no way to do anything. He could only hope that Kong and the others could solve the mystery.
After hearing this, Paimon seemed to understand why this commission came about. He couldn't help but shudder, his body trembling slightly in the air, "Uh, I think I can understand... Just hearing it makes my scalp tingle..." If an ordinary person saw this scene, he would probably be scared to death.
Especially since this incident always happens at night, the dark night is like a huge curtain, covering up all unknown dangers.
In the dim night, several dazed-looking Hilichurls took stiff steps and walked silently towards the depths of the rock abyss. There was no sound, only the vague figures gradually disappeared in the darkness. This scene makes people feel creepy just thinking about it, as if there is a pair of invisible hands tightly grasping the heart. Hiss... It's scary just thinking about it.
Kong also immediately thought of the inside of the Layered Abyss and couldn't help shuddering. "I dare not imagine the scene inside the Layered Abyss. Not only that, this is indeed a very strange incident." Kong had heard some rumors about the inside of the Layered Abyss, but when he thought of the Hillocks, Kong suddenly remembered that the Hillocks seemed to be the Kanreya people who were cursed. Now the Hillocks are heading towards the Layered Abyss, and the Hillocks are related to the Abyss. Doesn't that mean that the Abyss Cult is most likely behind this incident? When he thought of this, Kong suddenly felt a headache and rubbed his head helplessly. The Abyss Cult's purpose and actions are always unpredictable. Once you get involved with them, things will often become extremely difficult.
Yue Hui nodded when he heard Kong's words, agreeing with his point of view. "Yes, perhaps the fear from the unknown is the deepest fear. Only when the truth is found out can the brothers work with peace of mind." Yue Hui sighed helplessly, knowing that if the fear of the miners is not eliminated, the entire mining work will be seriously affected.
Hearing this, Paimon looked at Sora with an inquiring gaze and said hesitantly: "Should we...should we really accept this commission? Well, brother miner, let us think about it again..." Paimon's heart was full of conflicts. On the one hand, he was afraid of the unknown dangers, but on the other hand, he didn't want to give up this commission that might be full of challenges easily.
But before Paimon could finish his words, Kong answered first: "Leave it to us." Kong's eyes revealed a firm determination. He originally planned to just leave, but if it was the Cult of the Abyss... he would go and take a look no matter what.
Paimeng was so anxious when he heard that the air traffic controller didn't care about him and agreed to it. "Hey! You should also consider my opinion! Even if you don't consider my opinion, at least ask Lin Feng." Paimeng flew around angrily in the air, expressing his strong dissatisfaction with the air traffic controller's behavior.
Hearing Paimon's words, Kong showed an apologetic look to Lin Feng. Lin Feng patted his shoulder in understanding and said, "We have seen similar strange situations before, so I suspect it has something to do with the "Abyss Cult." Lin Feng's eyes revealed confidence and calmness, relying on his rich experience and keen intuition.
When Paimon heard the name of the Abyss Cult, he instantly agreed with Kong's idea. He thought, just accept it, anyway, as long as he stays by Lin Feng's side, he will be fine. Even if it is the power of the Abyss, Lin Feng should not be afraid, after all, he can also use the power of the Abyss. "So that's what you think, um... Well, then okay, maybe there really is some clue about your blood relatives hidden. If you don't go, you will always be concerned about it, right?" Since he knew that Ying was the princess of the Abyss Cult last time, Kong has been more concerned about the Abyss Cult. Before this, he had spent a lot of effort and searched everywhere, but he still couldn't find any effective clues about the Abyss Cult. It was not until Lin Feng came back and went to Inazuma that Kong temporarily put the matter of looking for the Abyss Cult behind his mind. Now that there is a clue about the Abyss Cult, Kong will surely not give up no matter what.
Yue Hui was very excited when he saw the three agreed. He held Kong's hand tightly, his eyes flashing with excitement, and said, "Have you three decided to accept this commission? To be honest, I don't want my mining license to go to waste." This trouble that has troubled them for a long time is finally someone is willing to solve it. It is really too difficult. As long as this matter can be solved, he believes that he will be able to make a lot of money through the Layered Rock Abyss, and then he will be able to hold his head high in front of his peers.
Paimeng nodded when he heard Yuehui's words, "Well, let's just think of it as us wanting to satisfy our curiosity." No matter what the final result is, there will be no problem as long as you go and see it.
