TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

"Garett, this is too much for us. We just need to look around and do nothing else, right? Thirty percent of the profit is a lot to do just that" Maev thought Liu Yang was being too generous with them.

The bodyguards, which miners or nobles hire for security, earn less than that.

"Garett, this is true. The amount you are giving us is much higher than normal" Aruna also agreed. She needed more crystals to complete her objective, but she couldn't accept it all.

"You are forgetting something. Usually, miners and guards are only out of the city for about a week or two, right? More than that, it's suicidal for them, right?" Liu Yang asked.

"Yes. As they are normal people and without strong equipment or high levels, they cannot stay out of town for long without being killed by other creatures or other people" Aruna replied. She also wouldn't have the courage to be gone that long.

Just a few minutes of running straight through the mine was enough for her to see how difficult it is to stay alive inside the mine.

"So, my goal is to spend at least two or three months mining the crystals before returning to the city." Liu Yang said. He had an interesting method of staying alive outside the city.

Not only him, but many others also use the same method as him.

"Two to three months??!! Garett, are you crazy?? How are you going to sleep or rest??" Maev found the idea of ​​Liu Yang very crazy.

But when she thought about his vitality and strength, she understood that he would have a chance to survive. But she and Aruna don't have those same chances.

"You will see when the time comes." Liu Yang spoke mysteriously. He will not speak of his plans at the moment, as someone can hear.

"Ohh ..." The two women were curious about what he was going to do, but they can only imagine.

"Will you be going with me or are you going to stay in the city to do other things?" Liu Yang asked.

"I will go with you" The two responded at the same time. They were safer staying with Liu Yang than they were alone.

None of them had helpers from their families inside the mine, so they can only trust the person closest to them. Besides, they still need more crystals to complete their task.

Originally, they had to come to the city to get crystals and buy some things that are only sold in the city inside the mine.

"Let's go to the city hall and ask for a mining location." Liu Yang hugged the two women and went to the city center.

During their walk, the group saw that the center was more alive and with more people than the outskirts of the city.

The place had more item stores, malls, brothels, and many other types of things to entertain people.

Liu Yang saw a person he met on the way, he was very shocked to see her. But when he thought of the things that may have happened to her, he just sighed.

(This place is really very dangerous for naive people...) Liu Yang sighed when she saw the young woman half-naked in front of a brothel, she was dancing erotically with other women to try to attract customers to the brothel.

The young woman was Stine, a newbie that Liu Yang befriended during a short trip from Crystal City to the mine. She was a cheerful and intelligent girl, but because of her low level, she didn't have many methods to defend herself against the creatures inside the mine. She could only trust others to survive during the trip to the city inside the mine.

In the end, she aroused some veteran's desire, but as if she didn't want to sleep with him, she was raped by several veterans for two days before being sold as a prostitute to the brothel.

Nobody felt sorry for or empathize with Stine, she was naive to think that the world inside the mine is like the outside. The rules inside the mine are defined by the strongest. The law of the jungle reigns.

The strong dominate the weak.

Only a few rules were created to prevent massacres from occurring within the city. If this were not done, there would not be many people alive within the city.

The people who were under the protection of the nobles were the safest, as there were not many people willing to offend a noble.

As for the commoners, they need to be strong enough to protect themselves and escape.

"Garett, isn't that woman your acquaintance?" Aruna also recognized Stine, as she had been looking at Liu Yang for a long time before.

"Yes. She is called Stine. It looks like she was deceived by the veterans and sold as a prostitute." Liu Yang replied. He didn't think that Stine would sell her body to receive some crystals from creatures.

The only possibility was that she had been deceived by the veterans.

"This is a normal thing to happen. Beautiful women who are not strong or without any support are prey to men. We need to be strong enough to defend ourselves." Maev commented when he saw Stine's situation. She has seen many similar scenes like this before.

As a low-class noblewoman, Maev was at the mercy of high-class nobles.

It was not just women who were in this situation, even men go through similar situations. But women are the ones who suffer most from this type of situation.

Beauty always brings calamity if there is no strength or support to sustain it.

"Garett, what are you going to do? Will you talk to her? Or ignore?" Aruna asked. She already realized that Liu Yang was a great womanizer from the things he talked to her when the two had that conversation during the night.

The conversation before the two play with each other.

"I will have to ignore it. I can't help everyone. Besides, we already have some problems." Liu Yang replied. He didn't have time to take care of another person, besides, Stine was very weak, she was only at level 56.

Stine only learned information about the mine because some nobles from other cities were recruiting people to mine crystals. So, she thought it would be an easy task, as she already had a mining skill.

The trio passed the brothel without hesitation.

Stine also noticed Liu Yang in the middle of the street, as it was a little flashy, a normal person hugging two women with noble auras. She felt jealous and envious of Aruna and Maev, as they were in the arms of Liu Yang as his women while she was a prostitute selling her body.

(If I had known that Garett was someone powerful. I would have tried to seduce him on the way to the mine ...) Stine could only sigh. She couldn't see through Liu Yang's disguise and thought he was just an ordinary person.

As a result, she was deceived by the veterans and became a prostitute because of them.
