A total of fifteen people from both parties descended into the mine shaft, which was wide enough to accommodate three or four people diving down at the same time, though this made it somewhat crowded. However, considering the monsters lurking below, both sides agreed that having more people was better, as at least they could look out for each other.

Lin Wu also distinctly noticed that the tattoo on his shoulder became unusually hot, warning him not to go any further down.
