After having defeated the last acid lizard swarm that had attacked them, Marcus was keeping watch while the Eternal Queens removed the valuable materials from the lizards they had killed.
'Damn at first they were pretty easy to manage, with maybe five at most attacking us and none of them being over level thirteen, but the second we went down a layer where the amount of platinum is denser, they began attacking in groups of over twenty with all of them being in the upper teens or lower twenties.'
Lamenting the increase in difficulty this mining trip was becoming, Marcus could only hope that after the number of lizards they had killed so far which was over a hundred, things would settle down a bit.
Once the Eternal Queens had finished collecting the valuable material from the acid lizards, namely their blade arms, acid glands, and magic cores, they began heading off towards the direction of the next Platinum deposit.
