“What a strange place.”
Instead of continuing to examine the area, Vincent Wolf followed the Desert Worm into the building.
After passing through the entrance, he looked at the center, which was right under the Desert Worm.
There lay something resembling a large bird’s nest, crudely made from numerous Energy Crystals and rare resources.
The Desert Worm lay on top of it, with five or six chubby white worms less than half a meter long, crawling all over its body.
“These must be the Desert Worm’s offspring. How come they are so small and pale compared to the adult, which is already ten meters long?”
Vincent Wolf picked up one of the small worms and felt its energy fluctuation. It was probably at the early stage of the Awakening period, having been born not long ago and experiencing slow growth due to the Devil’s Domain being transformed into the Life Secret Realm.
The Little Worm didn’t seem to be afraid of people or attack them when Vincent grabbed it. Instead, it stared curiously at him, possibly because it had never seen another species before.
Miyazaki Sahui, who had caught up with him, saw the little worm in Vincent’s hand and wasn’t afraid either. She reached out and grabbed one of them to play with, seemingly enjoying it quite a bit.
“I thought you would be afraid of insects since you’re a girl.”
“Don’t stereotype. I grew up in the countryside, and the shrine was built on a mountain. I spent a lot of time as a child playing with small animals and insects in the forest. I’ve seen many insect pet beasts like this before, some even more frightening.”
“Impressive!” Vincent Wolf gave her a thumbs up, then changed the topic. “We’ve gotten to our destination, so let’s split the spoils. Fifty-fifty.”
He pointed to the large mass of resources beneath his feet.
Miyazaki Sahui then noticed that the thing she was stepping on was actually the resources collected by the Desert Worm, and the mass was enormous. Even though the vast majority of resources that made up this “bug’s nest” were of limited value and quite common, their rare Death Attribute made them valuable despite their low grades.
But…
It seemed too big.
At a glance, it was nearly a hundred cubic meters in size and weighed an estimated one or two hundred tons. How were they going to transport this?
Miyazaki Sahui looked at Vincent, who pondered for a moment before looking at the Desert Worm.
The Desert Worm seemed quite speechless when Vincent looked at it.
Would it really allow its hard-built bed to be stolen like that?
Not only that, but they even wanted the victim – the Desert Worm — to help with the transportation. Was this how one should treat insects?
“By the way, there are five Little Desert Worms here. Do you want two or three?
Even though they may not look impressive, they are undoubtedly High-Level Commanders, and they all are in the Awakening period. They would be great for forming contracts and should fetch a good price.”
Desert Worm: ???
Was it really okay to discuss selling its children right in front of it?
“I’ll take three of them. As for the Desert Worm’s nest, I won’t take fifty percent. Just give me thirty percent. It’s not appropriate for me to take so much since I basically only had the Great Heaven Dog fan a little. I didn’t do much else.”
Vincent Wolf was moved.
Look, this is what you call an international friend!
“How could I possibly accept that?”
“If you really don’t want it…”
“Since you insist, I won’t go against your kindness. Let’s settle it like this.”
After saying this quickly, Vincent Wolf asked the Desert Worm to wrap up the “bug’s nest” with sand and then left with it.
Miyazaki Sahui hesitated, feeling that this handsome-looking man wasn’t quite what she had imagined. Before leaving, Vincent Wolf walked around the ruins and felt that the inhabitants here might not necessarily be underground dwellers.
Because in the remaining building debris, Vincent Wolf could clearly see many structures that only appeared on the surface, such as the drainage systems during rain and sunshade pavilions.
In the underground, there would be no rain or scorching sunlight, hence there would be no need for such designs.
Vincent Wolf believed that this building complex should have been above the surface, but was devastated, and was only buried deep underground after geological changes.
However, this can’t explain why there is such an open space after being buried underground instead of being covered by sand and soil like other relics and fossils.
Moreover, there’s that half-built tunnel. Why would it lead directly into this ruin complex after passing through it? If the transition from the surface to the underground was due to the passage of time, it shouldn’t be connected to the tunnel, right?
“It’s a pity I’m not an archaeologist, and every Mysterious Realm is a separate world from the Beastmaster World. What I studied is the history of the Beastmaster World, which is useless in the Mysterious Realms.”
Vincent regretted it, but he could only give up and proceed toward the surface with Miyazaki Sahui and the Desert Worm.
At the Life Secret Realm, the teleportation point for the finals players.
Twelve teams with a total of thirty-two people already stood ready.
There were seven people with Vincent’s Team 12.
Among the four who hadn’t yet arrived, excluding Vincent, only one was unlucky enough to be eliminated by a demon beast.
The remaining three players were all disqualified after being attacked by angry survivors who hadn’t been eliminated by Vincent.
That is, apart from Vincent’s team, there are a total of 25 people left in the other 11 teams, with more than half of the players being attacked by Vincent, but survived due to their mount speed.
If it weren’t for the presence of the team leader and the Grandmaster, nearly 20 players might have started to attack Team 12’s other players to vent their frustration.
One of Vincent’s teammates smiled at the others, feeling full of admiration for him.
James Mond’s harvest wasn’t too bad, as he had completed his own personal mission and handed his acquired resources to Zoey Green, who began counting their value
“How come Vincent hasn’t arrived yet? It’s almost 6 in the evening and the finals will end soon,” James Mond wondered
“Hmph, I think he’s done too many guilty things and dares not show his face,” The captain of Eighth Team overheard the conversation and said indignantly.
His Eighth Team was completely wiped out except for him, with a total of eight people eliminated by Vincent.
“Don’t be like that. Think about the positive side. Maybe he was slapped dead by a demon beast somewhere?” someone from the Sixth Team said sarcastically.
The Sixth Team was even worse off, with only him remaining, as all the others in his team had been eliminated by Vincent.
Zoey Green looked at the time, starting to worry in her heart.
Why hasn’t Vincent arrived so late?
Was he really in trouble somewhere?
With that thought, Zoey Green turned and asked Aiden Winter in a low voice, “Grandmaster Winter, is the protective cover of the Medal reliable?”
Aiden Winter’s face darkened a bit.
“Would the Beast Tamer Association provide fake and inferior products? Rest assured, nothing will happen to him. I know he has a strong backer in this place, much stronger than me.”
Zoey Green’s eyes widened.
“A backer stronger than you! That must be a king-level Beast Master!”
“What king-level Beast Master? Honestly, this guy Vincent found the Spirit of the Mysterious Realm as his backer. Who dares to touch him in this entire Life Secret Realm?”
“The Spirit of the Mysterious Realm? How can such a thing come into contact with humans?” Zoey Green instinctively asked in disbelief.
“The process is very complex, and it’s not of much benefit for a small Master Beast Tamer like you to know,” Aiden Winter continued. “At 6 0’clock, you just directly announce the end of the competition and announce the results..”
