The foreman observed the commoners with a frown and said, "Today, each of you must mine a total of 500 grams of crystals, or you won't get to eat."
Without giving them a chance to process what was going on, he waved his hand and said, "Send them in!"
Following his order, the guards pointed their weapons at the commoners and forced them to climb down the ladders.
Reaching the bottom of the hole, they saw countless people already working there. Their gaunt bodies were covered with strange purple bruises and black veins. Their faces were pale, and their eyes were bloodshot.
When they saw a large group of people arrive, they didn't even bother to glance at them and continued mining the crystals embedded in the ground and walls monotonously.
Seeing their conditions, the commoners finally realized what hell was waiting for them. They wanted to escape, but it was too late.
