Digging To Survive: I Can See Hints Chapter 484
Advertisement
James looked at everyone again, then stood at the front and said to everyone, "Everyone must be careful and come back alive as much as possible!"
Everyone was silent and didn't speak, but their eyes were full of sincerity. It was clear that they were ready to risk their lives.
James looked at everyone and didn't say anything more. He directly opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, let's begin to move!"
Grimm then picked up a bottle of Remy's Assistance and gulped it down.
Grimm's injury hadn't recovered yet.
Now, he drank another bottle and improved his condition to the best.
This way, he would be able to stall for more time when facing the Stone of Destruction.
This was all arranged beforehand, so naturally, no one would doubt it.
After Grimm finished drinking, the injuries on his body emitted waves of green light.
The green light quickly repaired Grimm's injuries.
Grimm clenched his fists and checked his condition. He felt very good!
Then he nodded to James, indicating that he could move.
James also nodded.
Then he signaled for the others to get ready.
Grimm didn't say much. According to the previous agreement, he took off and ran.
His speed was very fast, but he didn't activate any skills.
Grimm's goal was to draw the Stone of Destruction, so he naturally wouldn't pull too much distance ahead of time.
What if the Stone of Destruction stopped chasing because Grimm was too far away?
He had to guard against this!
When Grimm was far away, at this time, there was an inexplicable disturbance in the crowd.
...
At the same time.
The Stone of Destruction had long noticed that this group of people had gathered together.
It calculated the distance and looked at everyone's level. It immediately lost interest in making the first move.
With these people's strength, even if they didn't transform, it would only take a few seconds to finish them off.

If these people weren't still useful now, it would have made its move long ago.
Suddenly, the Stone of Destruction thought of the human who had scolded it back then.
It frowned and looked at the crowd.
But upon closer inspection, it didn't find him.
'What's going on?'
The Stone of Destruction had long seen Grimm.
It was only because Rakshasa and Klein were fighting too quickly that the Stone of Destruction didn't choose to vent its anger now in order to gather information about Klein in advance.
Furthermore, that human was just a tiny tick. It would only take a thought to kill him.
Of course, it wouldn't let him die easily.
The Stone of Destruction had thought of many good torture methods to deal with trolls.
For example, slapping him into a pulp.
Or, crushing his toy-like hands one by one.
Or, throwing him into his own feces and so on.
Every time he thought of this, the Stone of Destruction was very happy. The Stone of Destruction could not help but want to make a move.
Just as he was about to make a move, that human suddenly disappeared!
At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Eh? Where's Grimm? Someone saw him. Wasn't he here before?" someone asked.
"Yeah, where's Grimm? Who saw Grimm? He still owes me 50 runes."
"D*mn it, did he run away?" someone answered.
Someone pointed at a figure at the end of the line of sight and said, "F*ck, there he is!"
"D*mn it, this guy wants to run away?"
"D*mn it, he actually ran away at this time? He's simply not a son of man."
"Is there anyone who can catch him?"
"I knew this guy was unreliable. I didn't expect him to run away at this time. This is really infuriating!"
"Humph, run? Where can he run to? This is a catacomb. If we don't deal with these demon beasts in front of us, he won't be able to run out of this catacomb even if he runs to the ends of the earth," someone said mockingly.

When the Stone of Destruction heard everyone's words, it was first taken aback.
After absorbing it for a while, it revealed a strange expression.
"This? Is there an internal conflict?"
"How is that possible? And at this moment?"
The Stone of Destruction frowned and thought to itself.
'Could there be a trap?'
Upon thinking of this, the Stone of Destruction laughed disdainfully.
If Klein was inside, it would definitely consider whether there was a trap.
But these people?
Clearly, having such thoughts was enough to make the Stone of Destruction feel ashamed.
'It looks like humans are having an internal conflict.'
'However, humans are indeed like that. The more critical the situation is, the easier it is for them to have an internal conflict.'
'However, that person is right. As long as Rakshasa and I are still around, it's impossible for these people to leave this catacomb.'
'At that time, even if they run to the ends of the earth, they will only die a few seconds later. If it was someone else, it wouldn't matter. However, the person who spat at me should enjoy the most perfect and elegant way to die. Only then will I be happy.'
Thinking of this, the Stone of Destruction's anxious heart suddenly dimmed.
Instead, it looked at the receding figure with interest.
'Run, run. The further you run, the stronger your will to survive. When you are killed, the greater the pleasure you will give me!'
James was at the back of the crowd.
He had to grasp the changes in the heart of the Stone of Destruction in all aspects so that he could adjust his strategy at any time.
This was very important.
Because the Stone of Destruction's intelligence was not low, it would not be so easy to deceive it.
Therefore, James and the others had thought of a perfect solution.
That was, since they could not deceive the Stone of Destruction, then there was no need to deceive it.
They would directly lay out the facts.
Because the whole thing was true, even the Stone of Destruction could not see through it.
Looking at the Stone of Destruction's expression now, James knew that the strategy had succeeded.
Someone on the side asked, "Is it okay? James, I'm afraid that if I'm too late, the Stone of Destruction will become suspicious."
James nodded and then looked at the distant figure of Grimm.
He thought to himself, 'Take care, Grimm. If you don't die this time, you'll be my best brother!'
Thinking of this, James knew very well that timing was very important.
If he missed it, the plan this time might be useless.
So he nodded to that person and asked him to carry out the next step of the plan.
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed, "Damn it, this Grimm actually stole my teleportation scroll!"
"Teleportation scroll?"
Everyone exclaimed in shock.
"What is this thing?"
"I've never heard of it."
"That's right, what exactly is it? What use does it have?"
That person's face was full of ferocity as he spoke fiercely.
"Teleportation scroll is a one-time use item. Once used, the user can leave the current world and return to the previous catacomb."
"What?"
Everyone's eyes widened when they heard this.
"There's actually such a magical scroll?"
"Hu, this is too unbelievable. I thought that after entering the catacomb, only the demon beasts in the catacomb can leave. I didn't expect there to be such a magical scroll. If used at a critical moment, it can save one's life!"

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!

The Fire Within Can Be Scary
In a fantasy world similar to ours, magic worked similarly to physics, with each elemental spirit magic being tied to a state of matter. Earth is solid.Water is liquidAir is gas.Fire is plasma. Four elements, four states of matter. However in the ancient world of Hitarea, "Plasma" hadn't been discovered yet. The people of this world believe that only three states of matter existed, and thus, only three elemental magic could exist. For years, Earth, Water, and Air stood alone as the three main elements from which all others originated. Advanced arts like metal from earth, or Ice from water were only extensions of their original element . . . so what does that make Fire? Fire is powerful as the earth with its mighty explosions, flexible like water as it writhes around in the air, and swift like the wind. All at the same time. Fire, in regards to combat, is the most powerful element by far. This fearsome power is Alden's to master, but this power is a double-edged sword. One shouldn't play around with fire if you don't want to be burned. The fire within can be scary, you know?
