Chapter 500 Entering the Mine, The Thief's Identity
Chapter 500 Entering the Mine, The Thief's Identity
Unfortunately, the ape leader underestimated the power of the Fiery Fist Dragon. Countless white-headed apes were devoured by the fire dragon and turned into charred remains that fell to the ground. The ape leader was also not able to dodge and was blasted several meters away by the fire dragon, eventually turning into a wisp of golden tail hair that fell to the ground.
Despite being called the leaders of the strange apes, these golden strange apes are actually weaker than true commander-level demons; otherwise, how could the level four Fiery Fist Dragon have killed them so easily!
Next, the golden apes hiding near the cave were found and killed one after another by Jiang Han and the others. A large number of white-headed apes also vanished into nothingness along with the death of the golden apes.
Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of those inside the cave. A mine manager walked to the cave entrance and asked, "What's going on outside? Has the strange ape launched another attack?"
"It's...it's a rescue team! A small squad of mages is approaching us!" a mage guarding the mine shouted excitedly.
"Really, that's great! We're finally saved! I knew the country wouldn't abandon us." The mine manager smiled as well.
Standing near the mine, one could barely see a corner outside through the edge of the barrier. Therefore, the mine manager and other guard mages could only see Jiang Han and his group casually killing a large number of strange apes, and they all thought that the country had sent a super-level supreme mage team to rescue them.
As time went by, Jiang Han and his group soon reached the outside of the mine's barrier. The guarding mages, who had been terrified by the white-headed apes, dared not open the defensive barrier, fearing that the apes would rush in as soon as they did.
The hot-tempered Mo Fan pounded on the defensive barrier, shouting, "Open the door! Open the door and let us in!"
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and open the defensive barrier for the mages!" the mine manager said irritably.
The guard mage, regaining his senses, hurriedly opened the defensive barrier, allowing Jiang Han and the others to enter the mine.
Before the mine manager could speak, Ai Jiangtu ordered him to gather everyone in the mine. Their main purpose in coming to the mine was not only to rescue the trapped people, but also to find the guy who stole the gems.
Apart from Jiang Han, Mo Fan, and Mu Ningxue, who hadn't entered the Nazca Forbidden Zone, everyone else in the National Team had been there, so they still had some impression of the person who had "well-intentioned" tried to dissuade them.
After receiving Ai Jiangtu's order, the mine manager quickly summoned the more than 3,000 surviving miners in the mine. It has to be said that finding them one by one was really troublesome.
The group wasted more than an hour before finally finding the thief, a miner named Sheldon, in a secluded corner of the group.
"It's him. I still remember him quite well," Jiang Shaoxu said, pointing to Shelton, who was hiding his face behind a helmet.
Sheldon initially thought that his supervisor had summoned them in preparation for evacuation, but when he saw Aijangtu and the others searching through the crowd, he realized that these mages might be after him, no, after the Nazca Gems.
"Still hiding? Do you know how much trouble your car has caused? You still don't know how to repent. Do you really want the more than three thousand good people in the mine to die with you?" Ai Jiangtu shouted angrily after finding Shelton.
"I'm just an ordinary miner, what trouble have I gotten myself into?" Sheldon's voice trailed off as he spoke.
"Don't waste time with him, just search him." With that, Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan surrounded Sheldon and searched him, but after searching for a long time, they did not find the Nazca Gem.
"Not on him?" Zhao Manyan said, frowning.
Jiang Han glanced at Sheldon and said calmly, "If you can't find it on him, why don't you look for it at his workplace?"
Jiang Han's words immediately made Sheldon, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, tense up. He knew he would be chased by monsters when he stole the gems from the Nazca Forbidden Land, so he did not keep the extremely important Nazca gems on his person, but hid them in the rock crevices of his working tunnel.
The mine manager didn't understand why the mage who came to rescue them was searching a miner, but when he learned from Jiang Han that Sheldon had stolen the Nazca Gem, which led to the Nazca Monsters attacking the Arle mine, he was surprised.
He was immediately enraged, but after calming down, he immediately mobilized more than 3,000 miners in the mine to search for Nazca gems.
The miners worked exceptionally hard to survive, and soon one of them found the Nazca gems wrapped up in a crevice in the mine shaft where Sheldon had once worked.
When Sheldon saw his hidden treasure being discovered like this, he went into a frenzy, screaming, "You...you can't do this! It's mine, mine!!!"
Jiang Han stared at the crazed Sheldon and said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be a descendant of the ancient Peruvian people."
"What? He's a descendant of the ancient Peruvian people?" Jiang Shaoxu exclaimed in shock.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Hmm," Jiang Han nodded, then looked at Sheldon and said, "Don't you think that doing this is somewhat insulting to the Li Fan Flower on your body?"
Jiang Shaoxu then noticed the ancient Li Fan flower emblem on Sheldon's clothes. If Jiang Han hadn't pointed out Sheldon's identity, she would have noticed the inconspicuous flower on Sheldon's clothes. It was the Li Fan flower she had seen in the ancient city ruins!
The Nazca Line symbol represents the unwavering spirit of sacrifice and protection of the ancient Peruvian people. However, as time has passed, its inheritors have long forgotten their mission and instead steal the forbidden Nazca gems for personal gain.
After Sheldon came out of the mine, he was taken away and imprisoned by the Peruvian sorcerer, while Jiang Han and the others took the Nazca Gems they found to the Nazca Lines.
