Chapter 209 Uncut Stone
"Oh?"
"Just name any monster, and I can accurately recite its attributes, species, attack, and defense."
"Really? That missed goblin?"
"Hmm, Dark attribute demon race, attack 400, defense 400."
"That Heart Key Fairy"
"Light attribute Angel race: Attack 400, Defense 300"
"The Monster in the Attic"
"Dark attribute demon race: Attack 550, Defense 400"
"Angel Witch"
"Dark attribute mage race: Attack 800, Defense 1000"
"Yi, Yihao Spirit Lizard"
"Water-type reptiles: Attack 350, Defense 300"
What Di Xing didn't notice was that, under the firelight, Ruan Nuo's hair once again displayed a rainbow of colors, and a smile appeared on her lips before slowly fading away.
"Wow, big brother, you're amazing! You really remember everything!" Long Ying clapped and cheered.
"That's right. Every monster is unique and has its own purpose. Think about it, how can those high-star monsters appear without relying on low-star monsters? Just like those high-star people, if they didn't drink our blood, could they survive?"
Di Xing's words plunged everyone present into silence.
Seeing this, Di Xing knew that he had achieved his goal for the day, and hurriedly said, "It's getting late, everyone should go and get some rest."
So everyone returned to their tents, covered themselves with thin linen sheets, and curled up as much as possible, trying to maintain their body temperature and process what Di Xing had just said.
After everyone had fallen asleep, Di Xing secretly led Ruan Nuo back into the mine.
Ruan Nuo's senses were incredibly sharp. Leading Di Xing through the winding mine shafts, they finally discovered the Lion Crystal, now in its crystalline form, and a card beside it, hidden in a secluded crevice. (The Explorer of Devil's Rescue)
Di Xing infused them with elven power, materializing them.
"Wow, why are you so slow? I've been waiting forever!"
I never expected the seemingly adorable Savior of the Demons card to be so rude in his speech.
"Shouldn't you have a cute, girly personality?"
"Don't judge a book by its cover, you idiot!"
Di Xing was speechless, but the important matter at hand was more pressing.
"Let's hurry and find that crystal!"
"Hehe, I'm not like you who drags your feet. Just watch my performance!"
The Seeker of Deception channeled his power into the Lion Crystal, which instantly transformed into a giant lion crystal. Little Red then mounted it.
"That's not right, Xiao Hong, shouldn't you be riding an eagle?"
"I've already told you not to judge a book by its cover, and don't give me nicknames without my permission, you idiot!"
Little Red sprayed some water, but her movements didn't stop at all. She patted Lion Crystal, and Lion Crystal immediately used its tail to curl up Di Xing and Ruan Nuo, placing them on its back.
"Hold on tight to the crystal on the back of the Lion Crystal. If you dare touch me, you're dead!"
"Yes Yes Yes"
Guided by Xiao Hong, Lion Crystal raced through the mine at breakneck speed. Upon spotting a hidden wall, it smashed it open with its giant paw.
After setting Di Xing and the others down, Lion Crystal leaped into the hole it had created and then swam through the rocks as if swimming.
Di Xing was stunned. "Is it really that strong?"
Little Red looked tenderly at the lion crystal as it dug, "Yes, our three giant beast crystals are the best, both obedient and capable."
When talking about Leo crystals, Xiao Hong seemed to transform back into a cute girl.
"Yes, I think this is the tone you should be using."
"So noisy, KUSO!" Little Red waved her staff in a threatening gesture, when suddenly, a cheerful voice came from inside the cave.
"Huh, you found it? So fast?"
Xiao Hong led Di Xing and the others through the hole dug by the Lion Crystal Stone.
At first it was extremely narrow, barely wide enough for one person to pass through. After walking several dozen steps, it suddenly opened up into a bright and spacious area.
A large space appeared ahead, and Lion Crystal sat inside, wagging its tail happily. No, you're probably a feline.
Upon entering the space, Di Xing was dumbfounded; the stones here all emitted a fluorescent glow, creating an extremely dreamlike atmosphere.
Are all of these spirit stones?
"No, the ones that emit a green light at the very back are the spirit stones. These can be considered one of the precursors to spirit stones. Although they also contain spirit power, their purity is not yet sufficient. However, as time goes by, they will transform into spirit stones, which we call unpolished stones."
"But this place isn't far from the start of the vein, so how come there are so many rough stones?" Xiao Hong asked疑惑地. "And judging from the amount of these rough stones, the amount of spirit stones contained in this vein is definitely astonishing."
"Luckily we acted early, otherwise, at the digging speed of those people up there, they probably would have dug this far in another two months."
"Look, isn't this the large spirit stone?"
Ruan Nuo shook a stone on the ground that emitted a greenish light, and accidentally shook it off.
"Oh no!"
"What...what did you do?" Little Red stomped her foot angrily.
Ruan Nuo calmly hid behind Di Xing, peeking out only half of her head.
Di Xing quickly said, "What does it matter? This piece is about the size of two thermos cups."
"That's true, but its value should have been higher. Oh well, this is enough. Let's just take this one for now. Although there are quite a few spirit stones here, taking too many will make us easy to be discovered."
The question now is how to create chaos? He would never set fire to the camp of these people living in such dire straits, so how could he create chaos? Di Xing couldn't help but look up at the dreamlike scenery.
"Wait, this scene looks a lot like the artwork on a trading card."
"what?"
"Let me think, it should be a magic card."
As if guided by something, Di Xing walked step by step into the building.
"What are you doing? We have to get out of here right away!" Xiao Hong said anxiously.
Di Xing continued forward, and then he discovered that in the center of a pile of rough stones, a huge yellow stone stood quietly.
"What's this?" Little Red, who had caught up, looked at the stone with some confusion.
"It looks like topaz, but why is it so big?" Di Xing reached out and touched the topaz. Instantly, the light in the entire space began to converge on Di Xing.
The [Youyou] that Di Xing dug out also began to glow.
"What is this?" Just as the prototype of the card was slowly becoming clear in Di Xing's mind, the earth suddenly trembled, countless tiny fragments of rock began to fall from the ceiling of this space, and even more critically, the hole dug by the lion crystal was about to collapse.
"Oh no, Lion Crystal, let's go!"
Di Xing shouted and picked up Ruan Nuo and Xiao Hong.
For some reason, Lion Crystal instinctively obeyed Di Xing's words, grabbed Di Xing's collar, and began to flee for its life. Lion Crystal was very fast, and they soon saw the cave entrance. However, in front of them, a huge piece of ore was about to fall and seal the cave entrance!
