Chapter 156: Crystal Rune Magic
“Vanessa, do humans also have the ability to build floating ships?”
Vanessa smiled softly and nodded.
Vanessa knew Ammon must be interested in the humans.
“Humans indeed have the ability to build floating ships. However, the rune magic humans use is slightly different from the original rune magic. It has been modified into crystal rune magic to adapt to crystal energy. Human rune magic consus more crystal energy to operate, but compared to original rune magic, crystal rune magic is more versatile.”
“Human crystal rune magic and original rune magic achieve the sa goal by different ans. Crystal rune magic can also be powered by elental crystals. Ammon, if you want to acquire crystal rune magic technology, you’ll need to visit larger human towns to find it.”
Li ng grinned and nodded.
Crystal rune magic technology was indeed a valuable asset.
Floating ships were a weapon of war.
No matter what, he had to seize the crystal rune magic technology from the humans.
“Vanessa, what is this?”
Li ng took a silver ore out of the beast-hide pouch at his waist.
“This is… mithril ore?”
Vanessa’s exclamation echoed in the wooden hut.
Vanessa’s surprise made Li ng suspicious.
So, this world really had "mithril ore."
“Vanessa, what is this thing used for?”
Vanessa took the mithril ore from Ammon's hand.
She carefully examined it up close.
“Ammon, mithril is indestructible and is the best material for magical devices. Rune inscriptions also require mithril as an engraving material. On the Augus Continent, mithril is a strategic resource for all races, and many wars among the continent's races have been waged over mithril mines.”
Li ng took the silver ore back from Vanessa's hand.
“Vanessa, if mithril is indestructible, how is it slted?”
The prerequisite for being an engraving material was liquefaction.
If mithril was indestructible, how could it be liquefied?
In the wooden hut, Vanessa answered Ammon’s question.
“Ammon, although mithril is indestructible, magic essence can liquefy mithril!”
“Magic essence? What’s that?”
What kind of thing could liquefy indestructible mithril?
Li ng was very curious about the magic essence Vanessa ntioned.
Vanessa smiled softly and answered Ammon’s question.
“Magic essence is the mucus of water slis. All races raise water slis to obtain magic essence.”
Water sli mucus?
Li ng thought of the lake of water slis in the southern forest.
Could those lake waters be water sli mucus?
“Vanessa, I’ll have to leave for a few days. You stay here and rest.”
The agreed date with the Holy Church was approaching, and he needed to set out.
Hearing that Li ng was leaving, Vanessa beca anxious.
She quickly grabbed Li ng's hand.
“Ammon, I want to go too!”
Li ng grinned and patted Vanessa’s shoulder.
“This ti, I’m dealing with humans. It’s not convenient for you to show up. Don’t worry, I’ll be back in at most half a month.”
Although Vanessa was very agile, her stamina was obviously not great.
The Throne Tribe was at least 700 kiloters from the Black Mountain Marshlands.
If he went alone, he could reach it in a day.
“I’ll stay in the distance and won’t show myself!”
Faced with Vanessa’s pitiful expression, Li ng felt a headache.
Could it be he had gotten himself a tagalong?
“Fine. Rest for a day, and we’ll set out tomorrow!”
Taking her along wouldn’t waste much ti anyway.
Leaving Vanessa in the tribe made Li ng uneasy.
After all, there was another figure in a black robe lurking in the shadows.
If he wasn’t around, Vanessa might interact with that person and awaken.
Vanessa’s paralyzed state was still ongoing.
She had to stay that way until it ended before he could leave.
“Great! Ammon, you’re the best!”
Vanessa happily hugged Li ng's neck, clinging to his arms.
Her face reddened slightly, and Vanessa lowered her head in embarrassnt.
“Ammon, you can’t bully tonight. Goblins have a short gestation period, and I’ll get a big belly in a few days. It’ll be inconvenient.”
Li ng grinned and lightly patted Vanessa's waist.
“Alright, I won’t bully you!”
The female lizardn in the hut looked at the pair with strange expressions.
They didn’t understand what was going on.
Why had the dark elf who had once been hostile to their leader suddenly beco so close to him?
Had their leader been deceived by this dark elf?
Ti passed quickly, and the day flew by.
The next morning, at the Throne Cave Dwelling:
“Ammon, how does this look?”
In the wooden hut, Li ng stared blankly at Vanessa.
She was as beautiful as a legendary elf.
No, Vanessa was an elf.
Vanessa’s tall figure was clad in an adventurer's leather armor.
Her slender waist and legs were exposed, fully showcasing her curvaceous figure.
“You look great, Vanessa. You’d look good in anything.”
Faced with Ammon’s greedy gaze, Vanessa smiled softly.
She picked up an adventurer's longbow from the ground and waved it.
“Ammon, let’s set out!”
“Alright!”
Li ng grinned, carrying his massive iron club as he stepped outside.
The two walked out of the Throne Cave Dwelling one after another.
In the tribe, they walked side by side.
“Vanessa, is your body recovered?”
Vanessa smiled faintly, hanging her bow and arrows on her back.
“Ammon, I’m fine!”
Li ng glanced at Vanessa by his side.
The paralysis abnormality still hadn’t faded.
The two exited the tribe’s southern gate, entering the bustling construction site outside.
“It’s the boss!”
“Who’s the female with him?”
“So ugly. Not as good-looking as lizardn.”
“Yeah, I agree.”
“Benben is prettier.”
“Benben is way prettier than her.”
Hearing the noisy goblins, Vanessa frowned.
Without her black robe, she couldn’t understand what the goblins were saying.
But their expressions while looking at her seed strange.
She guessed they weren’t saying anything good.
“Ammon, what are they saying?”
“Well… haha, they’re saying you’re really beautiful.”
Li ng laughed awkwardly, his gaze wandering.
His goblin followers had a strange sense of aesthetics.
Vanessa was far more attractive than Benben.
Could goblin aesthetics be tied to skin color?
But Benben’s skin color wasn’t particularly appealing either.
“Really?”
Vanessa looked skeptical.
The goblins’ expressions didn’t seem like they were complinting her.
“Of course it’s true. I wouldn’t lie to you!”
“I see!”
Vanessa smiled faintly and didn’t press further.
Before long, the two reached the riverside.
“Vanessa, get on. I’ll carry you!”
With that, Li ng bent down and lifted Vanessa onto his shoulders.
Li ng’s shoulders were broad enough for Vanessa to sit.
“Ammon, won’t this tire you out?”
Li ng grinned and stepped onto the river.
“Don’t worry, I have plenty of strength!”
Vanessa blushed slightly.
She knew better than anyone how much strength Ammon had.
“Hold on tight, I’m about to run!”
Vanessa quickly grabbed Ammon’s head.
Li ng started running across the river.
Where he passed, a long trail lingered on the river's surface.
