Chương 986: 306. Black Pupa_3

Time passed tediously as the tunneling progressed.

Noland Lee's cautious planning before taking action had paid off.

In the process of tunneling straight downward, he encountered no resistance.

But when the depth approached 2000 meters, an unexpected encounter forced him to hit the pause button.

"Sssss…"

"Click, clack…"

In the dark, confined space, Noland Lee and the Rock Spirit entered a state of complete stillness.

A barely perceptible noise lingered in Noland Lee's ears.

It was somewhat like the rustling of leaves in the evening breeze, and a bit like the sound of fingernails scraping across a blackboard.

The noise echoed in the cramped underground space, making it hard for Noland Lee to determine its exact direction.

He cast "Earth Shield," using the Pangula Family's secret codes to enhance the shield's defensive power.

He called up the Personal Panel in his mind and looked at the status bar.

There were no negative effects displayed.
