Unfortunately, the energy provided by the Mages in the quarry was not much, or it would have soon laid down complete traps, which he could use to pull a prank on them and make them wet their pants.

“Huh? More of them?” Mo Fan suddenly noticed something. He looked to the opposite mountain, where many spikes were appearing.

The spikes were increasing rapidly, scattered across the mountain. It was obvious that a stronger energy was present there, resulting in more spikes.

The quarry was an oval valley with the quarry at the center. The contractor had built a road for the trucks to move on. It was a rising slope from the valley, connected to the proper roads on the mountain.

Mo Fan, Yu Shishi, and Mu Ningxue were currently on the roads. The mountain opposite them was outside of the safe zone. The quarry itself was located between the safe zone and the outer world. The valley was part of the boundary.

Mo Fan initially thought some Intermediate Mages were using magic on the mountain, yet he soon realized there was no presence of magic!

“Demon creatures!” Mo Fan declared.

“On the lee of that mountain?” Mu Ningxue followed Mo Fan’s gaze, but did not see anything unusual.

“Yeah, at least three of them,” Mo Fan said.

Mu Ningxue was surprised.

Normally, she was more sensitive to the presence of an enemy because of her Wind Element, yet Mo Fan had discovered the demon creatures roaming on the back of the mountain around two kilometers away, before she had.

“It seems like the Circle of Crystal Teeth is useful for detecting enemies, too! It can quickly lock onto the enemies who are using their magic!” Yu Shishi smiled.

“Mm, I didn’t expect the Circle of Crystal Teeth to have such a huge coverage area. I thought it would only be around me,” Mo Fan admitted, surprised.

Since when was his ability to detect an enemy so outstanding?

He mainly relied on the Shadow Element to detect an enemy. However, he could only sense an enemy when his Dark Material had spread into his surroundings.

In other words, he had to guess if something fishy was nearby before spreading out his Dark Material to learn its whereabouts. However, he did not have to control the Circle of Crystal Teeth himself. As long as he and the enemy were on the ground, the Circle of Crystal Teeth would detect all sorcery and magic!

Therefore, it would be impossible to ambush him within two kilometers!

“I should warn them,” Mu Ningxue said.

“Here they come!” Mo Fan announced. He could see the top of the mountain from his position.

There was a sentry tower on the mountain. It was initially built for the people in the quarry to keep an eye on the surroundings. However, the private contractor had a terrible sense of safety. The sentry tower was supposed to be manned all the time, yet it was empty.

“That guy should be on duty, but he’s playing cards and drinking with the others!” Yu Shishi saw a man in his uniform. He had left his post and was playing with others in a tent. They had no clue that the demon creatures were already at the top of the quarry!

“Not every Mage is as diligent as Xuexue and I.” Mo Fan was not surprised at all.

Cultivating was tedious and boring. Most Mages looked for a stable job after they realized they could no longer improve their cultivation.

Those stable jobs would not necessarily guarantee them a luxurious life. They were unable to do their job properly most of the time, so they began to slack off and neglect their duties.

The mine leased by the private contractor was not very professional in the first place. The guards did not undergo strict training. If they did not drink and play cards in a place like this, they would have gone mad.

“Why don’t we wait for now?”

“I agree, those contractors should learn a lesson the hard way.”

If the quarry was destroyed, the contractor would just open another one in a different place. Mo Fan and his group just happened to be around to experiment with the Heaven-Inferior Seed. They might be able to take out the demon creatures easily, but there was no guarantee that these contractors would be so lucky next time!

If they did not encounter any hardships, they would only focus on maximizing their profits instead of caring about the safety of the miners!

“Mo Fan, you should go and warn them. Only intervene if their lives are in danger,” Mu Ningxue urged him.

“Sure, I’m waiting for the Circle of Crystal Teeth to stack up. Let them fight for a moment, I’ll observe the situation,” Mo Fan conceded.

Mo Fan had great anticipation for the second effect of his Soul Stone. He slid down the slope like a professional skier.

Mo Fan went straight to the tent and skidded to a halt in front of it, arriving before the people who were playing cards in spectacular style.

“(Cough cough)!”

“(Cough), damn it, who the Hell is riding a bike here? The dust is everywhere. My drink is going to get dirty!” the Mage in the uniform cursed.

“Hey you, enough looking cool, go get a few cans of beer for us. Hehe, I’ll be taking all your pay for the week... Hey, you guys, how long does it take for you to fill up the trucks? Aren’t you students of some renowned magic high schools? I can do it quicker than you even though I never went to school! I can fill up the trucks in less than ten minutes. You should treasure the opportunity to train yourselves!” the foreman berated them.

Mo Fan looked at the trucks and noticed the Mages were very young. It was likely that they had yet to graduate from school. Why were they here doing this work?

They might be using magic to fill the trucks, but it was no different from manual labor!

“By the way, aren’t you supposed to be on guard? What if the demon creatures show up?” Mo Fan asked.

“Piss off, that’s a bad omen from you,” the foreman shot back.

“Kid, are you new? Everyone here knows we aren’t capable of killing demon creatures. It’s useless to be on guard. We are done here next month. We are only here for the money. I’ve already prayed to Buddha. He told me the job is safe, so don’t you curse us now!” the guard scolded him.

Mo Fan dropped his jaw after hearing those words.

Were these people relying on Buddha to look after the quarry’s safety? They were a f**king bunch of carefree Mages!
