Soon, it was Zhou Yuanjue's turn to pay the "maintenance fee."
Among the four candidates from the Duomoge Organization, two were non-humanoid, and the other two were humanoid.
One of the humanoids, whose body was covered in overgrown folds and whose head sported compound eyes like a fly, seemed to be the leader of the four. His many eyes stared at Zhou Yuanjue for a moment before he said languidly, "A new face? You new here? Don't you know the rules? Pay fifty Value Points to enter the mine. You can stay inside as long as you want."
"And what if I don't pay?"
Zhou Yuanjue asked, his expression calm as he watched the creature.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yuanjue's words, the compound-eyed creature and the other three lazy-looking candidates all raised an eyebrow. They lifted their heads and fixed Zhou Yuanjue with strange, unsettling gazes.
The few other candidates queuing behind him also shot him astonished glances, unconsciously creating a safe distance between them.
