Suddenly, a coat fell upon Noah, covering him completely.
Noah was stunned for a mont, then turned and saw the werewolf Luf topless.
"Luf... Uncle?"
"Put it on, don’t catch a cold, all of us are tier-entering."
Luf shook his head.
"We...?"
Noah gave a slight start.
He couldn’t help but look at Charlotte next to him, noticing that this werewolf girl, about his age, seed unfazed by the cold which shocked him again:
"Tier... Tier-entering! Resa, you’re a tier-entering too!"
Charlotte gave the young werewolf a faint smile, neither confirming nor denying.
She stepped forward to the sealed entrance of the Secret Silver Mine.
Sebastian followed as well, closing his eyes, stretching out his hands to sense the seal, and then said in surprise:
"Compound Sealing Technique?"
Charlotte raised an eyebrow:
"Easy to break?"
Sebastian’s expression beca awkward:
"Unsealing... is not my strong suit."
"It can’t be undone here, it can’t be undone. I heard the rcenaries in the tavern say that to prevent the Transcendent from sneaking in, the mine invited the Mage Association to use a powerful and clever seal, even a legendary Great Mage would find it hard to break."
Noah shook his head by the side.
"But... my brother told about a hidden hole, we should be able to squeeze through..."
He added.
Yet after he spoke, he realized no one was picking up his lead.
Noah turned his head to look at them, only to see the girl suddenly addressing the darkness:
"Since you’ve followed us in here, stop hiding, just co out and start working."
As soon as her words ended, a plump black cat leapt from the darkness, owed, and ca to Charlotte’s side:
"Cha... Lord Resa, it was just that you seed to be enjoying your conversation so much, I didn’t want to interrupt!"
"A pig? A talking little black pig?"
The young werewolf’s eyes widened again, astonished.
Black Cat Nisi stumbled.
"Widen those werewolf eyes and look, Master Cat is a noble, graceful, handso, dashing Coria shorthair cat!"
It glared at the young werewolf, while arrogantly lifting its head.
"Cat... a cat?!"
Noah’s eyes rounded even more, seemingly unable to connect the spherical creature in front of him with a graceful agile cat...
"Alright, stop prattling, co and work."
Charlotte glanced at Nisi.
"Hehe, alright!"
Nisi rubbed his cat paws, all eager to try.
He approached the seal, first provocatively glancing at Sebastian, his mocking eyes seeming to say "Is this your skill level?" then, amidst Sebastian’s teeth-gritted stiff expression, he triumphantly placed his cat paw on the seal.
After a flash of silver light, the chains on the seal slid off by themselves under Noah’s amazed eyes.
"A talking black cat who can also unseal legendary seals..."
He murmured incredulously, already sowhat numb.
"Hehe, just a cleverly arranged Third Tier Compound Sealing Technique. Probably just hired a few Silver Moon Mages who have studied sealing magic for so years. The skill is still lacking; there was no Magic Torque Matrix or Double Technique Enhancent, nor was the surrounding dense magic power utilized. It’s far inferior to Master Cat !"
Nisi proudly raised his tail.
This fellow... his magic mastery is truly high, effortlessly spouting various theories, what’s his real background?
Charlotte couldn’t help but look at Nisi again.
"Not bad."
She tucked away her curiosity, nodded in satisfaction, and led the way into the sealed mine shaft.
Inside the mine shaft, the magic power was denser, so dense that Charlotte felt all the pores in her body cheering.
As a Magic Creature of the Bloodline, nature also prefers places rich in magic power.
She almost instinctively took a deep breath, however, this breath nearly made her choke.
It was nothing else, but after the seal was broken by Nisi, the different densities of magic power inside and outside the cave created a pressure that ford a wind blowing outwards, and this decaying wind carried a thick stench.
This stench was familiar to Charlotte.
Or to be more precise, it was a stench she would never forget in her life.
It was the sa stench she had slled from the living corpses around her; the day the old witch hung her on the cross—
the stench of decay!
"Yuck..."
Behind her, the young werewolf who also gulped down a mouthful of foul wind had already vomited.
"Stay alert, let’s go in and check."
Charlotte’s expression beca serious.
Sebastian and the others nodded, all pulling out their weapons, ready for combat at any mont.
The group progressed deeper into the mine shaft.
And shortly after entering, Charlotte saw glowingly colorful silver patterns on the surrounding cave walls.
The patterns were like lted silver, blending with the cave walls, twinkling gentle light in the dark, srizingly dreamlike.
"This is... it’s Mithril, indeed, the Secret Silver Mine never was depleted!"
Sebastian said gravely.
The Secret Silver Mine hasn’t been depleted...
Charlotte’s eyes slightly twinkled.
Getting this answer, she felt sowhat relieved.
The inco from the Mithril mine accounted for eighty percent of Castel mine’s earnings, and the mine contributed seventy percent of the Count Territory’s revenue; of the remaining thirty percent of the Count Territory’s inco, fifteen percent was also related to the Mithril industry.
In other words, fully seventy percent of her revenue was tied to the Mithril mine.
