The Evolving Stealth System Chapter 13: Critical Danger, Part 1

Two months passed in the Netherworlds…

Duncan had successfully turned this mountain into a new base, and the phoenix bone soldier and wormy were constantly training with each other…

As his only two summons, these monsters didn't even mind dying to each other in battle, and his summon flesh worm skill was now level 6, while his summon skeleton skill required him to go out to level and stop exploring this mountain…

[Ding! System has found new information on this mountain in database, and it is confirmed that there are no useful ores, or anything special in this mountain besides metal veins…]

[It is recommended that host begin reentering the battlefield or else hosts will be discovered by the branching domains of demi-god class demons…]

"What… what do you mean?" The System interrupted him with a mining axe in his hands…

He'd used some of the bones to build this mining axe, and learning mining was as simple as just digging into the bed rock beneath them…

[Ding!]

[Host has been leveling mining skill for one month, and when he moves his body the branching domains may pick up this odd habit…]

Duncan sighed and recalled being a transcendent shaking it off without a worry…

As a transcendent, there was plenty of skeletons he'd seen stuck in the mud…

Death was their friend.

They'd sometimes get stuck in the holes… and that would be what he thought as a demi-god, so then a rock came into his vision and he grabbed it!

[Ding! Host is also reminded that in order to go receive missions from the system he must activate a way point… Otherwise, the best items he will find will be that fake spirit ore in your hand…]

Fake spirit ore?

The rock burst into pieces and he kept trusting it his instincts…

After digging for another hour, something then made him feel extremely excited!

"System, my gut is now definitely telling me something is here!"

[Ding!]

[System is completely sure that host would be better off leaving for the battle field, and training mining skill will not improve hosts over all attack power…]

[It is recommended that host listen to system…]

Regardless, Duncan kept digging and digging and making louder and louder noises…

Finally, at this moment, something that was falling from the sky bounced into the cave and Phoenix immediately started poking the thing with wings…

"Mehehehehehehehe!" Phoenix said something like you can't harm my master, and Duncan arrived to stop him from thrusting his dagger into this beautiful form…

It was like looking at an angel, but it had dark wings, and he felt surprised as he turned her over…

"System… can you please use examine, or tell me something useful?"

[Ding! Host is reminded that higher level beings are dangerous to scan, but can be assured this is a devil type death angel…]

[If host would like more information… the benefit of leaving here promptly and joining the battle field cannot be understated…]

Duncan agreed with the system on this one, and began looking back at the killer set up of his base…

It was a shame, but he'd already dug as much as he could, so after retracting wormy the lady's movements startled him…

A second later, a shadow moved and his back burst into the wall; she was already up and in front of him with a few of her feathers pressing him into the rock…

She had blue eyes that instantly appeared and reminded him of emeralds. With pale red skin that could be mistaken for a burn from his days working on the farm…

However, when the demon fallout happened, no one ever told him how absurdly powerful demons were…

Demons and devils didn't get along, so since a skeleton was considered a devil he was beginning to feel a crushing feeling against his skull…

[Ding! Host is in critical danger! Host is in critical danger!]
