Chapter 212

~7 min read 1,385 words

Not only were there gold stones, but as they went deeper into the mountain, they also discovered other ores, basically of Second-Rank quality, but in extremely large quantities.

"This is simply a treasure mountain!"

The horse demon roared. After confirming that there was no danger on the big mountain, it rushed over first, wanting to get a share of the pie.

Not only it, but the demon-barbarians observing on the spot all rushed toward the treasure mountain.

"Aren't you going?" Song Ce, who was standing still, looked at Lv Fang, who also hadn't moved, with surprise.

Lv Fang watched expressionlessly as the demon-barbarians scrambled on the big mountain nearby. Their laughter at obtaining precious ores made him even more cautious. He never believed that there was such a thing as a free lunch in this world.

Even if there really was, those pies would be enough to crush people to death.

He had heard about this situation from Jiang Yuan before. In the mountain in the rear, there were also a large number of various ores and crystals.

In the same situation, he believed that there must be exotic beasts guarding these ores in the mountain. Anyway, he didn't care about these ores, so watching the show quietly was quite good.

"Cunning human, why don't you go? There are many precious ores there. Such a big treasure mountain must have countless ore treasures inside."

Seeing Song Ce's appearance, who didn't intend to move at all, Lv Fang was a bit curious. He knew that exotic beasts would appear in the treasure mountain and there was a certain danger, which was why he didn't go over. So why didn't Song Ce go?

Did he also sense the danger?

Or did he discover problems in other aspects?

Song Ce grinned, raised his chin slightly, and said softly, "Aren't you the same as me, holding the idea of sitting back and reaping the benefits? With this group of small fry helping to dig for ores, you and I don't need to take risks personally."

After a pause, he shouted to the distance, "Whoever it is, any ores and materials obtained in the treasure mountain must be handed over. Violators will be killed!"

After speaking, he ordered the cloaked barbarian warrior to supervise.

Lv Fang blinked. Song Ce was really shameless. Not to mention wanting to embezzle the ores of the treasure mountain, he even said it so righteously.

Just as he was in a daze, the Fourth-Rank horse demon rolled its eyes and shouted, "Did you all hear that? Everything obtained in the treasure mountain must be handed over. I will supervise you for Commander Xie."

This flattery was really excellent.

Lv Fang opened his mouth and couldn't say a word for a long time. No matter how he thought about it, he had no reason to refuse, so he simply let it develop.

"Don't just focus on obtaining ores. Separate a team to go to the top of the mountain to see if there is still a mist barrier on the other side of the mountain."

He ordered.

"Yes." The horse demon responded, immediately pointed to a few demons, and let them go to the top of the mountain to investigate the situation, while it stayed behind to supervise the demons.

The few demons who went to the top of the mountain didn't encounter any obstruction on the way up. However, when they were about to reach the top of the mountain, they encountered a barrier, and no matter how they attacked, it was ineffective.

Unable to climb to the top of the mountain, what's the situation?

Lv Fang was full of doubts in his heart. The development of things was something he hadn't expected. It shouldn't be this situation. Regardless of whether this was a trap road or a road to enter the mist barrier, it shouldn't have blocked the way directly.

Demon Heart: "Perhaps it's necessary to take out all the ores in this treasure mountain. The barrier at the top of the mountain is probably the energy provided by these ores."

"Oh?" Lv Fang was silent.

The Demon Heart, which hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke at this time. This awkward feeling made him feel uneasy.

Could it be that the Demon Heart saw something?

Digging out all the ores in the treasure mountain can break the barrier?

Lv Fang thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Just at this time, the demon-barbarians digging for ores on the treasure mountain finally encountered a sneak attack by exotic beasts.

A Pangolin Anteater, a type of Fifth-Rank exotic beast, because its skin was extremely hard, it was also the natural enemy of the Flesh-Eating Flying Ants.

It had a pair of sharp claws and body armor, which could easily crush stones into powder. In front of it, there was no such thing as hardness, and burrowing into the mountain was even easier.

And when it curled up its body, its jumping power and speed were very amazing.

Six Pangolin Anteaters appeared, instantly killing six demon-barbarians. Before others could react, they quickly burrowed into the mountain.

This sudden situation did indeed cause a certain amount of chaos for the demon-barbarians.

However, it was just chaos. The reason the Pangolin Anteaters were able to succeed before was because all the demon-barbarians were unprepared. Once they were prepared, with many Fourth-Rank experts sitting in town, wanting to capture and kill the Pangolin Anteaters was not a difficult thing.

"Perhaps you really guessed right."

Song Ce didn't care about the chaos on the treasure mountain, but walked toward Lv Fang and said with a fake smile.

"Guessed what right?"

Lv Fang looked at Song Ce with disgust. This was not an act; he was really annoyed by this person. If it weren't for the lack of conditions, he would definitely give the other party a fatal blow immediately.

Song Ce raised his eyebrows at the treasure mountain and said, "Perhaps this place is really the entrance to the Lower Upper Realm."

"Oh." Lv Fang put away his disgusted expression and asked suspiciously, "What did you see? So sure? In my opinion, we took the wrong road. Otherwise, you go to the top of the mountain and see that barrier."

Song Ce said confidently, "I don't need to see any barrier. As long as the ores in the treasure mountain are taken out, the barrier will disappear automatically."

Hearing this, Lv Fang was speechless. Song Ce's statement was exactly the same as the Demon Heart's. Could it be that he thought too much? The Demon Heart's sudden reminder was just a casual remark and had no other intentions.

It was no wonder he would think too much because of one sentence.

After being in contact with the Demon Heart for so long, he had roughly figured it out. From various signs, he and the Demon Heart were indeed grasshoppers on the same rope, and the two had a relationship of shared prosperity and shared loss.

But this didn't mean that Lv Fang could agree with everything the Demon Heart did.

Because he found that the Demon Heart seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with the status quo and wanted more chaotic things to happen. Although it denied it, he could feel it.

Do you want greater chaos?

Lv Fang really wanted to ask Song Ce what exactly was in the Lower Upper Realm that the demon-barbarians spent so much effort to enter.

It stood to reason that the two commanders, the White-Feathered Eagle Demon and Song Ce, should know some inside information.

In the end, he held back, because if he asked, there was a high probability that his current identity would be exposed. In that case, it would become very difficult to destroy the demon-barbarians' plan later.

As they went deeper into the treasure mountain, they discovered more high-grade ores and a few piles of crystals.

Of course, they also encountered many dangerous exotic beasts, making their progress very slow.

The cloaked barbarian warrior and the horse demon returned one after another, fawningly handing three storage bags to Song Ce and Lv Fang. In less than a day, they had obtained so many precious ores and crystals, which could be said to be a fruitful harvest.
