Nero is nearly finished. In a few minutes, he passes through the last area, and a map covering the life detection artifacts will be complete. Even if I could avoid them, I needed the map before the places where their power overlaps are very hard to avoid detection, and once; they detected you. They will focus on you. Now, in a couple of minutes, the map will be finished, and Nero could start working on the real escape measures. A few minutes passed when suddenly, Nero stopped, and seeing what he had found, I had stopped too. I had only stopped once this week and that was yesterday when he found the house-size load of P1 crystals. What he found now is smaller than even a thumb, but the value of it, far bigger than the house size load. My whole body shook as I looked at the S1 grade crystal; it is a sovereign grade. This tiny piece would be more than enough to earn my freedom, finance the resources till I level up, and more. I had heard there had been S1 crystals found in the mine before, but those instances could be counted with fingers. The last one that had been found more than a century ago. Nero looked at it before taking it into his mouth. He ate the crystal directly, as he did with other crystals. He ate it with a large rock surrounding it. The rock, that is even bigger than me. It is the safest way, as the toxins present in the crystals are harmful even to Nero. With the rock, those toxins would be contained, till I became powerful enough to purify them. I am very excited about finding S1 grade daros crystal. If I escape from here, it will help me tremendously. A few minutes later, Nero finished the map, and immediately begin the tunneling. Even with his abilities, it will take weeks. Till then I will have to solve the collar problem. It is not easy as it looks, but I have confidence, in my abilities, that I will be able to do it before Nero finished the tunnel. When there were forty minutes to return, Nero came back to me, and I continued mining for the forty minutes. I stopped at the exact time as I had been in this month and put back the pickax into my storage before getting up and leaving. Hun! A few minutes passed when I had suddenly stopped seeing Ranya kicking a horned man hard in the balls. He is not the only one on the ground. There are four more, all of them screaming in pain while holding their junk. It is clear; she had done the same to the four people, as she is doing to the fifth. "What happened?" I asked as I approached her. "These bastards tried to molest me," she said with anger burning in her eyes and she stomped and broke the leg of the man. "Do you need any help?" I asked her, with my eyes blazing with the same anger. "No, I will deal with these bastards myself," she said and begin breaking their bones. It is a harsh truth that sexual assaults are common in the mines. The people here are caged and worked to death, with only death as a release. In such cases, they let their emotions run wild. Ranya is a prime target. She is an extremely beautiful woman. Elves are famed for their beauty. Not only that, but to those who could see through her cloaks, she is a radiant pearl, that anyone would want to possess. Which leads to this. It is not the first time that had happened. I caught her punishing her men three times. I am sure there are many other times that I did not see. "If you ever try this again. I will punish you so bad, that you will regret to ever being born in this world," warned Ranya, before she walked away. Soon, we are joined by others, but nobody had mentioned what had happened. We just kept moving and reached the stone-skin man of the later shift and got into the line. Everybody had got their quota today. So, nobody needed to give away some of their crystals. Soon it was my turn, and I touched my ring to the disc. Immediatly a faint surprise couldn't help, but appear in the eyes of the old man and he turned to me. Scanning me sneakily, and saw what I wanted him to see. "132% of the quota and Primary-III monster in perfect condition," said the stone-skin man, and points got deposited into my collar. "You have killed a monster and there is barely any scratch on you," said Rim as I appeared in the formation. "I dodged all its attacks and was lucky that my only attack that was able to hit it had killed it immediately," I replied. "The points will help you a lot," said Rim, with a faint jealousy in his eyes. Which is natural. Ranya and I in our rooms had collected the greatest points. Ranya especially, after she successfully started practicing the method, the detected method also became powerful, that now every day, she would mine at least 50% of the quota. Most of the time, she would mine double of quota and buy the resources from the point store. Buzz! The teleportation formation buzzed, and we disappeared. A moment later, we appeared above. "I am going to the point store. Is anyone coming?" I asked, "No, I had gone there a week ago," said Karta. "I still need some points to get things I want," said Gack and shook his head. "I am short on a few points. I hope you guys will give me some," said Rim. "No problem," Ranya, and I said in unison. Three of us went to the point store and begin picking what we want. When I saw the point store the first time, I wanted to buy the cooking material, but I changed my mind. After knowing many crashers here are trained alchemists and many create their own potions, after buying raw materials. Through potions and medicine, they could create are the most basic ones because of the unavailability of tools. They are much better than those sold here. They are insanely expensive. Most of the things I chose could be used in potion and also in the processing of the doras crystals. I stayed away from the most obvious ones and picked up the obscurity. Even these people might not have an idea that some could be used to process the doras crystals. Not all have a library with immense knowledge. Soon, we picked up the thing we needed and walked into our room, where we quickly freshened up and erected the privacy screens across our bed before beginning to process the resources into the potion. After a few minutes after starting, the sneaky soul sense came, watching everything that was happening. I smiled internally and continued. I had been fooling him for days, as I had used half of the resources I am buying to process the crystals, while the other half to practice.
