My Virtual Girlfriend Is Actually a Lady From the Richest Family

As the minutes passed, all the miners continued to leave the mine in a hurry.

Some who were too far away were even transported by helicopter.

What could they do, the bosses wanted them to vacate the mine, they could only obey.

Of course, it was impossible to do it in 30 minutes, even an hour wasn't enough. Only after two hours could all the mine workers be gathered in front of the office, and they still had to leave.

"You should go too," David said to Jenny as the miners started to leave.

"What? I have to go too?" Jenny was dumbfounded again.

However, when she saw David's serious look, she could only grumble.

"Don't expect to get any love from me if you don't tell me later, hmph," she said with a cold snort before walking away.

She got into the car, asking Mr. Lex to take her.

Since she didn't want to get stuck in the traffic jam caused by the miners, so she left first.

No one objected to her being the first to leave.

David and Mery couldn't make a move until they were all far away. If they were still close, they could still see them.

They had to wait another hour before there was really no one around.

"Let's go!" David didn't wait any longer. He jumped into a mine shaft that was about ten meters deep.

However, instead of falling, he turned into a lightning bolt or rather his whole body was enveloped by lightning.

Shua!

The lightning moved into the mine very quickly.

David couldn't fly, but he could propel his body through the air using the lightning.

Every blink of an eye, he moved more than a hundred meters, much to Mery's surprise.

"He's already this strong," she said in amazement.

Mery knew she wouldn't be able to catch up to David's speed. He was already on top of her.

"It seems he's ready to fight with the strongest people in those families," she added.

After that, she ended up following David.

She also used the method that David used, pushing her body with the power of her shadow.

Incidentally in terms of movement, shadows are somewhat similar to lightning although the latter is much faster.

And indeed, Mery was far behind David.

David stopped at one of the deep mine shafts.

It was full of big black rocks, quite hot and smoky. They were all coal.

David observed the stones, curious now that he was in direct contact with them.

People often referred to these stones as black gold.

Since long ago, they had always been fought over. The individual who managed to control one of their mines could already be a billionaire.

Their value is incalculable as they are the most reliable source of electricity.

Without them, no modern industry can work properly.

After about ten minutes, Mery finally arrived beside David. She was sweating a little.

"Is there anything down here?" she asked David.

"Maybe," David replied.

However, David did not act immediately.

"Excalibur," he said in a low voice.

He summoned his sword.

All this time, he had been carrying it but he had never directly touched it.

When he summoned the sword, he didn't make it reach his hand, but let it fall around him, like on the roof of a car so that it would stay with him.

While traveling in Jenny's jet, the sword fell on top of the jet's body and stayed there. David had even left it there since he got off the jet.

From the airport to this mine was quite a distance, but David was also already very strong. He could summon the sword as long as he still felt its presence.

Mery immediately turned her gaze in a certain direction. Her eyes narrowed.

A moment later, a golden beam of light came from the location Mery was staring at.

It was really too fast, piercing through the air so that the air became torn.

When it became close, it was still covered in cloth. If it wasn't covered by cloth, the effect would have been completely different.

BANG!

It landed on top of a small hill, instantly turning the hill into a pit full of coal.

Now, the miners only needed to dredge up the coal.

The power of the sword was indeed so great. Striking with it would practically make David two to three times stronger.

Mery instantly became unsure that she could fight David if the latter fought with the sword.

No, she would definitely lose to David now, but if David used that sword, she couldn't escape either.

Phew!

David sighed softly.

The sword then flew towards him in a slow motion.

"Now I feel that there is something very big under this mine," David said to Mery, looking serious.

"Is it dangerous?" she asked.

In the mines, there were many bones of ancient creatures.

They are sometimes very dangerous if they still have some power left.

They can even attack.

David shook his head, unable to be sure.

"It will be difficult," Mery said, holding her chin before looking down.

"Besides, it's very difficult to go under this mine unless we find a path. As far as I know, coal mining companies don't make the path underground too deep," she added.

"That won't be hard," David replied.

He wiggled his sword against a coal beside his foot.

Shua!

His lightning power entered the sword and then it emitted a light that was a combination of gold and purple.

The light became like a laser but it was huge.

It was only a moment and when it disappeared, a very deep hole appeared in front of David. It was dark from the outside because the sunlight could not enter.

Mery narrowed her eyes into the hole, seemingly wanting to check its depth but even she couldn't give it away even though her power was identical to that of dark places.

"You can perform such an attack, and it's so big?" she said, looking at David with some disbelief.

"How much energy did you use?" She asked.

"Quite a lot but my energy recovers quickly, I can keep doing it," David replied with a faint smile.

As he became stronger, Mery eventually began to be amazed that she was even curious about his spiritual powers.

Shua!

David jumped into the hole he made himself, letting his body fall into it.

It was like falling into a well. The difference was that this well was too deep.

All around him, there was nothing but coal.

He also found that the air became very hot in no time.

Although it didn't really affect him physically like making him injured, but he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

He looked up. Mery also followed suit, but it turned out that the woman actually looked relaxed, showing that she was very used to extreme places.

Pa!

David and Mery landed in no time.

It was dark there, so David created a small, spherical lightning bolt, instantly illuminating the hole.

"1.5 kilometers," Mery said in a quite shocked tone while looking up.

She measured the hole as long as she fell.

Unfortunately, there was absolutely nothing around.

It was like they were at the bottom of a well.

"David, with this ability, you can explore many places," Mery continued, looking at David.

"I won't do it all the time," David replied, shaking his head.

Although his energy did recover in a short time, there was still a slight sense of fatigue. And this was just one time, he thought he should do it a few more times.

If he did this every day, he would be stressed out from exhaustion. And what he gained might not be of comparable value.

He now had the power of Zeus, so not many things were valuable in his eyes.

Whether something hidden under this mine was valuable was something he didn't know.

The main reason he did it was simply because it was his first adventure.

After that, he did the same thing under his feet, making him and Mery fall straight down as they had nowhere to stand anymore.

This time, they fell side by side.

"Mm..." Mery suddenly looked up and her expression became worried.

"I don't think it will be easy for us to go up after this," she said.

Hearing that, David also looked up, knitting his brows.

Only now did he realize that this was also a big problem.

Relying on his lightning couldn't if he moved straight up. It's like jumping and he can only jump higher but the hole is too deep.

Excalibur is also unreliable for this as David can basically only summon it so that it flies towards him.

When it was already in his hands, it wouldn't be able to go anywhere anymore. It won't pull him to fly.

Otherwise, he could already fly like the cultivators in the novel who flew by stepping on the sword.

It wasn't that it couldn't be done, but perhaps he hadn't reached that level yet.

Basically, he was not yet able to make the sword move on its own except when he summoned it.

When he didn't summon it, it only moved when he moved it with his hand.

David shook his head, choosing not to think about it now.

Pa!

He landed again.

When he landed this time, something caught his eye. It was wedged between a pile of coal.
