Chapter 989 - Crystal Exchange
Chapter 989: Crystal Exchange
The two children slept from dawn until noon the next day before they slowly woke up. The heavy rain also slowly stopped the moment they woke up.
Their surroundings were gray, just like their hearts at the moment. They were still children, but they had seen too many things that children of this age should not have seen.
Of course, they had also finally understood the rules of survival in the World of Magical Beasts. The strong were respected, the winner was king, and the loser was a bandit.
If they wanted to get out of this place, the only thing they had to do was to quickly collect crystals and strengthen themselves so that they had enough ability to deal with the challenges and possibilities of the other magical beasts.
“Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?”
“Let’s eat shrimp and fish. Look, it must be the ones that Da Bai prepared for us. Even the internal organs have been dug out.”
Da Bao looked at the fish and shrimp that had their internal organs removed on the leaves by the river. After washing up, the two of them carried them back to the entrance of the cave.
They put them into the pot and boiled them. The delicious fish and shrimp soup was refreshing and delicious.
The two of them were not in bad spirits, but they were not in good spirits either. However, their eyes were extremely bright. They had experienced a true baptism of blood. They were slowly growing up on a different path.
“Da Bao, are we training in the afternoon or going out for a walk?”
“Let’s go out for a walk. Aren’t those magical beasts not going to deal with us? Let’s go out and try to see if it’s true.”
“Alright, but we’re only Level 3 magical beasts. We’ll leave when we see a Level 4 magical beast.”
“But I’ve never seen a Level 4 or Level 5 magical beast before. How do we differentiate them?”
“Eyes. I saw them very clearly that day because I was close to them. The different colors of their eyes meant that they were of different levels. Even the black eyes of the big black snake were shining with a hint of blue light.”
“Why didn’t I pay attention at that time?”
“Your attention was all in the mouth of the big black snake. Of course you didn’t see it.”
“Alright, let’s go out and pick some green leaves and mushrooms while we’re at it. I don’t want to eat meat anymore.”
“Alright, we still need to pick up the Ganoderma mushroom that we saw before.”
“Didn’t you say that it’s only used by magical beasts in the World of Warcraft? What’s the use of us picking it up?”
“How could you forget again? In their eyes, we’re already magical beasts, and we’re still Level 3 magical beasts.”
“Oh, right, I really forgot. Let’s go out and show off ourselves.”
Da Bao and Little Treasure slowly climbed out of the thicket holding hands. They looked around and saw that the ground was wet. It had just rained. However, because the rain had stopped, there were many more magical beasts besides them that were hunting.
However, what they did not expect was that the pheasants and hares that they saw along the way seemed to be dumbfounded. They actually saw them coming over one by one and just stood there without moving, allowing them to pick them up. It really did not give them a sense of accomplishment.
In the past, they still had to chase them, but now, they didn’t even have to chase them anymore. They just had to hunt them down directly. This was really too boring.
“Are these pheasants and hares dumbfounded? They don’t even have to move to let us do our thing. I even wanted to follow the hares to find some wild vegetables to eat.”
“They’re probably afraid of us.”
“So being invincible is also a form of loneliness.”
Da Bao said another classic quote. Little Treasure opened his mouth but did not say what he wanted to say. He did not know how to respond to her next sentence. Their world was becoming more and more different. Da Bao’s essence was becoming more and more powerful.
The two did not catch the pheasants or rabbits that came to them voluntarily. Instead, they caught some pheasants that could run when they saw them. Those that could run meant that they must have crystals, but the number was too small.
Every species could evolve, but the degree of evolution was different. Whether they were herbivores or carnivores, they all had the right to evolve.
However, what they did not expect was that they once again met the hedgehog that always provoked them, this time, the hedgehog was like other animals. When it saw them, it did not dare to run. Instead, it stayed where it was and trembled.
“Hahaha, this hedgehog of yours has come to this. Let’s see if I won’t flatten your spikes today.”
Da Bao held a large knife, long teeth, and five claws, as if she wanted to scare the hedgehog.
The hedgehog was actually frightened by Da Bao’s actions. It just squatted there, not even daring to roll out its spikes. Its small appearance looked extremely pitiful.
Just as the two of them were about to tease the hedgehog, the hedgehog actually made a move, causing them to look at each other for a long time without any reaction.
Crystal. The hedgehog actually took out its own white crystal and held it in its hand.
What was it doing?
Exchanging?
“It really has a crystal, but why did it take the crystal out?”Da Bao asked in confusion.
Little Treasure looked at the hedgehog and boldly reached out to pick up the crystal from the hedgehog’s hand. Then, he saw the hedgehog throw the crystal away and run away without a trace.
Little Treasure then said in a daze,”Exchange, it’s exchanging. It must have thought that we wanted to kill it, so it used the crystal in exchange for us to spare its life.”
“Ah? It can do that?”
“It should be like this. Using the crystal in exchange can save your life.”
“Why don’t we try the other ones?”
“Yes, let’s try again.”
The two children seemed to have discovered a new world as they sprinted towards the forest once again. They were no longer hiding in the cave and did not dare to go anywhere unless they were starving, they would definitely not walk out casually.
But now, they dared to walk freely in the forest. What they relied on was not only the blue crystal on their bodies, but also their state of mind that was slowly changing and their plans for the future.
“Hahaha, I’m so happy. We got three white crystals in just one day, and they came to us voluntarily. That’s great.”
“Yeah, that’s right. I didn’t expect the rules of the World of Magical Beasts to be like this. Even if we run into danger in the future, we have another way to escape. We don’t have to fight. We just have to exchange crystals.”
“No way. My crystals will never be exchanged. We have to protect them well. Little Treasure, you can’t be content with the current situation. You have to practice well. Don’t think about using crystals to save your life. You have to think about how to get the other party’s crystals. We still have to go out and look for Mommy.”
Alright then. In Da Bao’s world, from the first day that she knew that she could go out and look for their parents by searching for crystals, he had already decided that crystals could only go into her pocket. He definitely couldn’t take them out of her pocket.
Right now, Little Treasure was often unable to catch up with Da Bao’s words. He always felt that Da Bao was sometimes so wise that it made him feel scared. Sometimes, she would be so silly that she did not know anything, and she would be so na?ve and cute.
He really hoped that Da Bao would always be so na?ve and cute...
