Carrying their personal belongings, Jiang Yan and the others followed Hu Yiyang, twisting and turning through a series of winding paths before descending a narrow spiral staircase.
Not far along, tracks with a metallic sheen and small open mining carts came into Jiang Yan's view.
This was a deeper, darker tunnel.
The tunnel's walls were lined with barbed wire, and fluorites emitting a faint glow dotted the surface.
Jiang Yan: "Is this the tunnel that used to connect Flame Base and Yaoben Base?"
Hu Yiyang explained, "No, that one goes deeper. This is another exit."
Several warriors responsible for reception and inspection had already approached.
Even with Hu Yiyang personally leading the group, the warriors still conducted a routine scan with detectors to check everyone's belongings.
