Chapter 116 The Underworld
It seems that the people of the Sun and Moon Empire really like to enrich the underground world.

This was Huo Yuhao's first thought when he saw the underground structure of Qingse Hotel.

Xiao Hongchen actually mentioned something to him about why the proportion of underground buildings in the Sun and Moon Empire was larger than that on the ground.

"For safety? Confidentiality?" he asked at the time.

"Well, that's probably a factor, but it's not the main reason." Xiao Hongchen said with a proud look on his face, "I was knocked down by the question."

"Are these not the main reasons?"

"Because there is a more important reason -" Xiao Hongchen hesitated for a few seconds and laughed out loud when he saw Huo Yuhao's expectant eyes pretending to cooperate, "Of course we didn't dig these holes in the ground just to build these buildings. .”

"If you are smart, you may have guessed that the Sun and Moon Empire is a country rich in rare metals. So, to mine metal ore, you need to open a mine. Once one vein is dug, it will be idle, and then the next..."

As he told the story, Xiao Hongchen's face gradually became serious: "It is said in history books that the Sun and Moon Empire first established its capital in Mingdu precisely because it was rich in rare metal minerals. But now, most of the rare metals in Mingdu The metal comes in from other parts of the country.”

"It is said that not long before I was born, His Majesty issued a decree to control the extent of mining. Everything points to a result."

"The underground of Mingdu has been dug into holes, and not a drop of mineral veins can be found."

"Leaving the mines would affect the normal lives of residents, so the Ming Dynasty began to expand many buildings underground. On the one hand, it was fully utilized and the usable area of ​​the city was increased. On the other hand, it was to prevent the mines from collapsing."

"So there is such a reason." Huo Yuhao understood. "It's over-exploitation... But I think the situation in Jingyang Mountains and Evil Forest is actually not bad?"

"That's because of the existence of soul beasts. These two places are different from the shrinking Star Dou Forest. They have been in this area since the people of our continent began to record. We have very few strong people, so we have always been concerned about them. It is a compromise attitude. Even though it is a period of over-exploitation, everyone has tacitly agreed to leave space for the soul beast."

"Overexploitation is really harmful."

"Indeed." Xiao Hongchen spread his hands, "But this is an inevitable stage in the development of the soul guide of the Sun and Moon Empire. People at that time actually couldn't think about it that much. When everyone sees that problems exist, they often already exist. A long time...until the first mine cave collapsed and killed people."

What Xiao Hongchen said was echoing in Huo Yuhao's mind again at this moment.He looked at the splendid golden dome, and it was hard to imagine that this place had once been a mine filled with all kinds of beautiful natural crystals.

However, there was no time for him to think about this for the time being.The two people he and Chi Qiu were following were walking into the venue, seemingly looking forward to it.

"I guess this is an auction room."

Chi Qiu looked around and spoke with mental power.

Indeed, with the familiar stands, familiar VIP boxes, familiar middle court and the golden light ball hanging overhead, the overall layout here is similar to that of Starlight Auction House.

Huo Yuhao thought of the background of Xishui League again, and it was basically certain that this was also the largest auction house in Mingdu.

However, no auction was held here today.In the middle of the golden field, there was a pile of unknown metals that were simple and dark but exuded evil spirits. There were also several people trapped in black sacks who seemed to have no strength to struggle.

"That!" Huo Yuhao was slightly startled when his eyes fell on those metals. He looked through his memories of the few days before he entered school, and actually found content that matched them.

The day Wang Dong was provoked, the angry guy took out the fifth-level soul tool.At the beginning, Huo Yuhao felt a lot of pressure when facing the fifth-level soul guidance device. However, in the past two years, Huo Yuhao himself was already a sixth-level soul guidance teacher taught by Mr. Kong.

However, Huo Yuhao would not admit his mistake in this feeling.There is no doubt that the raw materials of that dark soul guide are the metals in front of you.

Among the people he and Chi Qiu were following, one of them stepped forward first and stretched out a hand that had been hidden under his robe.Huo Yuhao was surprised to notice that the hand had been completely twisted and turned purple, and it did not look like a human hand.

Then, the man grabbed it from the air with his purple hand, and a black sack was sucked into his hand.Looking at his grasping movements, he is most likely holding the opponent's head.

The moment the soul ring flew out from behind this person, the expressions of Huo Yuhao and Chi Qiu changed slightly.Two yellow, two purple, five black, clearly a nine-ring titled Douluo.

Then, before Huo Qiu and the two could take a breath, his soul ring flickered in a strange way, and then they heard a sharp scream coming from the black sack.

Huo Yuhao swore that this was the most painful scream he had ever heard.

As this action continued, there seemed to be some faint halo flying out of the black sack.This familiar feeling...

"Soul power?" Chi Qiu was a little disbelieving, "They are extracting the soul power of the person in the sack..."

"I didn't want to believe that this was soul power at first." Huo Yuhao's voice trembled slightly, "I peeled off some of it...it hurts."

The man's movements didn't stop, and he grabbed the faint white halo with his purple hand.Then, with a "chish" sound like a tire deflating, the white light was instantly crushed in his hands and surged to both sides.

In the process, this white light gradually turned into the same black and sinister airflow as those on the metal.

"Bring the metal," the man with purple hands ordered.

The subordinate who had been waiting aside immediately opened a box of rare metals and presented it in front of this person.The latter pressed the black airflow in with ease.

In an instant, the pile of metal made a "sizzling" sound like it was being violently corroded.Huo Yuhao almost heard the scream of these metals.But this did not last long. Soon, these lifeless and irresistible metals completely turned into the same black color as the ones on the ground.

"It looks better than last time, but that's the limit." Zishou said calmly, "Pour them down."

The subordinates immediately poured the metal into the black metal pile.

It seems that these evil soul masters are actually using this cruel method to make the soul guidance tools used by evil soul masters.

"This is your upper limit." The man kicked the black sack, and a groan of pain immediately came out from inside. "In seven days, I'll drag you there to be baptized with that group of people. It's considered a baptism for you." It’s a good place to go, you won’t have to suffer whether you live or die, and you have to thank me.”

seven days?

Huo Yuhao and Chi Qiu looked at each other. They were mentally connected at the moment and could understand each other's thoughts without mental communication.

Save these people!
 I've been really busy these two days and I'm so sorry_(:зゝ∠)_This is what happens if I don't save my manuscript...
