Chapter 227: Crystal Mine

"Keep walking!! We need to be quick !!! We have to get to the crystal mines before night comes!!" A burly man shouted. He was leading a large group of people down the road.

The group was walking down the road towards a crystal mine in the region near Crystal City. Despite being close, the trip takes about five days.

There was no village or city near the mine because there was no suitable place to build. Thus, the only way to reach the mines traveling by road.

To increase travel speed, the group had to use horses and carriages. Only the richest have carriages while the poorest have a horse. Overall, everyone had efficient ways to reach the crystal mines.

The total number of people within the group was almost a thousand and was composed of nobles and commoners. The nobles only needed to collect the crystals and take it back, the commoners were the guards to protect the train and miners to explore the mines.
