Chapter 167: Additional Imports, Giving Up To Obtain
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mutated beasts were usually not interested in ores, but this was not absolute. For example, a mutated beast like the Blazing Golden Crow that was breaking through was an exception.
...As wild mutated beasts did not have any lords to provide them with materials, they could only collect them themselves when they were preparing to break through. It was also an instinctive reaction of mutated beasts.
Although Wang Xiao had long known about this, because he had never seen such a situation, he did not think in this direction at first. It was only when Zhou Xiruo said that the Blazing Golden Crow was afraid of death that he suddenly had this guess.
The growth and breakthrough of wild mutated beasts had to rely on their own efforts. Even if they were not usually afraid of death, they would still prioritize saving their lives at the critical stage of breaking through. After all, no one wanted their efforts to be wasted.
After figuring this out, Wang Xiao also relaxed. He jumped to the ground and arrived beside Zhou Xiruo. Then, with a thought, he recalled the two mutated beasts back to his territory.
After the Blazing Golden Crow regained its freedom, it still lay on the ground and did not dare to move. This could not help but confirm Wang Xiao’s thoughts.
“Get up!”
Hearing Wang Xiao’s words, the [Blazing Golden Crow] flapped its wings and stood up. Then, it retracted its wings and lay on the ground. It leaned its head forward slightly in front of Wang Xiao and was as obedient as a child.
Seeing the appearance of the Blazing Golden Crow, Wang Xiao immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. He cleared his throat and asked, “If I help you break through, are you willing to be my contract beast?”
The Blazing Golden Crow blinked crazily.
Wang Xiao was delighted, but Zhou Xiruo, who was beside him, revealed a puzzled expression. “You want to sign a contract with it? But isn’t your soldier pit already full?”
“Then we can only make a sacrifice.”
Wang Xiao sighed helplessly. He was still a distance away from leveling up to a
level four lord. The number of pits could not increase in a short period of time, so he could only choose to “exile” a contract beast.
As for which one to choose, Wang Xiao also had a plan in his heart. It was the beast that was still in its infancy, the [Bright Moon Merman].
Previously, Wang Xiao had hatched it for the [Mermaid Tears] produced by the [Bright Moon Merman].
However, because there was no chance of the Ten Thousand Times Growth Increase, it would take more than six months for the [Bright Moon Merfolk] to grow to the next stage. Compared to the level three gold-rank [Blazing Golden Crow], Wang Xiao could accept this sacrifice.
He did as he said.
Wang Xiao made a decision and directly entered his territory with his consciousness. He found the Bright Moon Merman and announced that the contract had been canceled. Then, the Bright Moon Merman turned into fragments of light and disappeared from the territory.
Then, Wang Xiao left the territory and threw a [Contract Scroll] to the [Blazing Golden Crow]. Because the conditions of both parties had been agreed, the process of signing the contract was extremely smooth.
The Blazing Golden Crow turned into shattered light and collapsed. Almost at the same time, the dazzling sky suddenly darkened, and the originally white desert instantly turned pitch-black!
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed and pulled Wang Xiao back. “What happened? Why did the sky suddenly turn dark?”
“It should be because of the [Blazing Golden Crow], right?”
Wang Xiao looked up at the dark sky and guessed, “Although I still don’t know what connection those ten suns have with the [Blazing Golden Crow], they should have been created by the [Blazing Golden Crow]. Now that the [Blazing
Golden Crow] is gone, the suns are naturally gone.”
see…”
Zhou Xiruo nodded, but she stopped abruptly.
The two of them looked at each other in the darkness. Although they could not see anything, they knew that the other party’s expression was definitely not good at this moment!
A moment later, Zhou Xiruo’s voice sounded in the darkness. “If those ten suns were created by the [Blazing Golden Crow], then wouldn’t the territory…”
Before Zhou Xiruo could finish speaking, Wang Xiao had already entered the territory. Almost as soon as he appeared, he felt a familiar heat wave assault
his face!
Opening his eyes, he saw ten suns neatly arranged in the air. The white snow everywhere in the territory was quickly melting under the warm sunlight!
“[Blazing Golden Crow]!”
Wang Xiao’s expression changed drastically and he hurriedly shouted, “Hurry up and put away your suns!”
Wang Xiao had already deeply experienced how terrifying the temperature of the ten suns was in the [Scorching Purgatory].
If he allowed the Blazing Golden Crow to continue fooling around, not only would the ice attribute [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] be affected, but even the population of the city-state would not be able to survive!
Fortunately, the [Blazing Golden Crow] was still quite obedient. Almost as soon as Wang Xiao finished speaking, the ten suns began to quickly shrink. In the end, they turned into ten colorful feathers and rushed towards a certain place in the territory.
After the crisis was resolved, more than half of the 1,400-kilometer ice territory had melted. It had to be known that the [Blazing Golden Crow] had only entered for less than a minute!
Seeing that many places had revealed the color of soil, Wang Xiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also had a new level of understanding of the ability of the Blazing Golden Crow.
This ability to change the environment attribute was really too domineering. If there had been a Blazing Golden Crow in that large secret realm previously, the [Ice Corrosion Python] would probably have died without even knowing how!
At this moment, Zhou Xiruo also entered the territory. Seeing this, Wang Xiao was not in a hurry to retreat. He directly called for Zhou Xiruo to begin the modification of the territory.
The [Bright Moon Merman] had already been exiled, so the remaining pool was useless. Wang Xiao first blocked the entrance of the spring water and used his lord authority to build a mountain hundreds of meters tall in the pool.
Then, he ordered the [Metal Devouring Ants] to hollow out the interior of the mountain. Including the original depth of the pool, it formed a huge cave with a diameter of 300 meters and a height of nearly 2,000 meters.
In the end, Wang Xiao summoned the [Blazing Golden Crow]. As the [Crimson Earth Thousand Miles] skill was activated, ten feathers flew out from the tail of the [Blazing Golden Crow]. They circled high up for a moment and turned into ten dazzling suns.
The temperature suddenly increased, and this huge cave also became a fire attribute environment. In the future, this would be its nest, along with the [Lava Raging Bear] and the [Volcano Melting Lizard].
After setting everything up, Wang Xiao opened the interface of the Blazing Golden Crow and checked the materials needed to break through.
[Black Gold Ore 1/10, Breakthrough Stone 0/15, Advanced Energy Core 0/30,
Fire Spirit Grass 4/50, Purple gold mineral 15/1,000, Mithril Ore 17/3,000, Refined copper ore 5,000/5,000, Black Iron ore
Looking at the dazzling array of materials and the strings of numbers, Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo were speechless.
In particular, although the 100,000 units of Black Iron Ore did not cost much, the long string of numbers still made their hearts ache!
Just the nine units of Black Gold Ore were already 90 million star coins. Including the other materials, if he bought all of them, it would be at least 200 million!
“I’ve lost, I’ve lost! I’ve lost a lot!”
Wang Xiao slapped his thigh with a regretful expression.. He originally thought that the [Blazing Golden Crow] had already gathered most of the materials, but other than the [Fine Copper Ore], the other materials were simply a drop in the bucket!
