Chapter 2912 Town Infrastructure Construction in Full Swing 34
The strange creature led Jin Chen and his group to the core of the crystal area.
The light here is intense, creating a rainbow-like halo, and clusters of crystals of various shapes grow here, far purer and more precious than the mixed-colored crystals that the base teams on the outskirts are desperately fighting for.
"here it is……"
The monkey stammered, its eyes fixed on the screen.
"So many crystals," Ruoqing murmured. As a physician, she could more keenly sense the gentle yet powerful healing energy contained within these crystals, which were priceless treasures.
The people at the Blazing Fire Base were so excited they were trembling all over.
They were mortified. They never dreamed that following Jin Chen and Huo Zhaoye would not only allow them to safely enter this forbidden zone, but also take them directly to its very core. It was like a windfall.
But why them of all?
Whether they were from the North and South Towns or members of the Liuhuo Base who had followed them there, this question lingered in their minds.
Although Lord Huo is powerful and a rare leader, it's hard to imagine him making such an extraordinary and ferocious beast submit to his commands and even offer up its most precious crystals...
This is just too incredible.
Could it be that Lord Huo possesses some unknown, peculiar ability to make strange creatures obey him?
Or……
Everyone's gaze involuntarily drifted to Jin Chen, who stood calmly beside Huo Zhaoye, her expression indifferent.
It seems that since he came to Beizhen, many impossible things have become possible.
"What are you standing there for?" Jin Chen tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the blank faces. "Pack them up."
Everyone: "..."
The monkey was the first to snap out of it, slapping its thigh. "Right, right, right! Bag them! What are you daydreaming about! Be careful! Pick the ones with the purest energy and the biggest ones!"
"Ali, Xiaowu, you two go over there! Be aware of the surroundings!"
"Ruoqing, Qiaomei, you two are in charge of sorting!"
"Brothers from Blazing Fire Base, stop watching! Let's all join in! Everyone who sees it gets a piece of the action!"
Before they came, they considered the worst outcome of total annihilation and the best outcome of risking their lives to bring out a few marginal crystals.
Who would have thought that we could now mine in this core mining area as easily as picking up stones?
The people at the Blazing Fire Base were overjoyed to receive permission and eagerly joined in, full of enthusiasm.
To get a piece of the pie, and such a big piece at that, this trip is incredibly profitable!
Only one person stood out from the bustling atmosphere.
Lu Jun, head down, also walked towards a cluster of crystals. Still immersed in the shock of her fiancé just now, she didn't even notice her footing and almost tripped over a protruding crystal.
Lu Jun looked up and met Jin Chen's expressionless face.
"Go and take care of your own business."
Jin Chen didn't want this stupid dragon to be stubborn at a time like this and ruin his relationship with Yan Gengu.
If the Earth God can return, he can help with things in the Quick Transmigration Bureau.
Jin Chen used a little skill to push Lu Jun to the side.
Lu Jun staggered slightly, but managed to stand firmly in front of Yan Gengu.
Their eyes met.
Yan Genggu's lips moved as if he wanted to explain something, his eyes showing a hint of panic.
Lu Jun looked away before he could speak.
Yan Genggu had avoided Lu Jun's eager gaze many times, but this time, Lu Jun himself was the first to look away.
Yan Genggu thought to himself, for no apparent reason, that another person's escape could be so heartbreaking.
"Why don't you say?" Lu Jun suddenly asked.
Yan Genggu was stunned for a moment: "What?"
"Why don't you say you have a fiancé?"
Lu Jun turned his head and stared at Yan Gengu, his words almost squeezed out between his teeth.
He felt like a fool, treating people with all his heart, only to find out that the person was already engaged and was the captain of a powerful force like the Five Elements Base!
What do my recent attempts to get closer and show goodwill mean to the other person? A joke?
After Lu Jun finished questioning Yan Genggu, he saw Yan Genggu's face turn pale instantly and realized that his tone had been too harsh. He gritted his teeth and took two steps back to create distance.
"Forget it, now is not the time to talk about this."
Lu Juncai didn't want to be here, in front of everyone, questioning people like a wronged husband who had been abandoned.
He turned around, squatted down next to another cluster of crystals, picked up his tools, and began mining with a somewhat rough manner.
It was as if it had a grudge against those innocent crystals.
Yan Genggu reached out to grab his hand, but it froze in mid-air and eventually fell limply to the ground.
He had never agreed to the engagement and had been trying to break free, but... looking at Lu Jun's current state, it seemed that all explanations were pale and powerless.
Not far away, the monster tilted its head, stretched out its front paw, and poked Lu Jun's back from behind.
Lu Jun was so startled that he almost jumped up!
"Holy crap!" he exclaimed, turning around abruptly to meet a beastly eye larger than his head, burning with dark golden flames.
Lu Jun: "!!!"
His heart stopped for a moment, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.
What does this monster want to do?!
The monster found his startled reaction amusing, letting out a muffled laugh that revealed a touch of human pleasure.
Then, it retracted its paws, lowered its head, and nibbled on the crystal three times, as if eating candy.
Lu Jun: "..."
Everyone: "..."
On the other side, Huo Zhaoye stood on a slightly higher rock, also observing the strange creature.
Its attitude towards Jin Chen, its attitude towards itself, and its almost playful teasing of Lu Jun just now...
This is far more than just a tamed wild beast; its intelligence is clearly extremely high.
After observing for a while, Huo Zhaoye walked over to Jin Chen's side.
Jin Chen leaned against a slanted metal pillar, looking over with a relaxed posture.
"what happened?"
"You recognize it." Huo Zhaoye recovered from his initial shock. Upon reflection, he realized that the strange creature's special attitude towards him and its willingness to offer up the core crystal were most likely not because of him, but because of... Jin Chen.
His teacher, Jin.
How many secrets are still unknown to him?
Upon hearing this, Jin Chen lazily raised her eyes and looked at Huo Zhaoye, "Hmm."
Huo Zhaoye's heart skipped a beat.
Although he had suspected it beforehand, the confirmation still stirred up indescribable emotions within him.
Jin Chen straightened up slightly, walked to Huo Zhaoye, and straightened his collar.
“But no matter what,” Jin Chen looked up and met Huo Zhaoye’s deep eyes, her voice softening, “Lord Huo, you are the one who tamed it.”
Huo Zhaoye was stunned.
Jin Chen's fingertips gently brushed across his eyebrows and eyes as she continued, "Isn't it interesting?"
How interesting, in the abandoned experimental area where all the large and medium-sized bases are gathered, under the gaze of so many eyes.
The unremarkable and unknown lord of Peace Town tamed this strange beast that no one else could possibly tame.
From this day forward, in this wasteland, everyone must remember Peace Town, and even more so, Huo Zhaoye.
This was a grand, silent coronation.
In fact, when Jin Chen passed by and heard those people say that there were strange things in this place, he had such thoughts in mind, at most it would just take a little effort.
Jin Chen had no idea that this strange creature was actually the gluttonous monster that had come to the small world without his permission.
