Chapter 868 - Winston’s News (1) (2/2)

Parker walked over to the rock, picked it up to take a look, and noticed a hole inside. A few small rocks were contained in it.

“These are the ores that you guys want?”

The tiger beastman threw a strange glance at Parker, taking him as someone who had just come down. He said, “That’s right.”

“What’s the use of it?” Parker assessed it carefully. These rocks were pitch-black like ink as if they had absorbed all light rays. They looked quite creepy, like many black holes.

Upon a careful inspection, he realized that they were crystals and were also octahedrons. It was just that their color was different from the crystal they found in the village.

“Down here, we need to trade ores for food and water. If we gather 1,000 of them, we’re even able to leave this place.”

The tiger beastman said anxiously, “You’re so strong, so you’ll definitely be able to find a lot of them very quickly. Return these few to me.”

Beastmen in this place didn’t know how immense the world was. The tiger beastman hoped that they could be deceived by his words. Otherwise, his hard work over the past few days would all go to waste.

After having taken a look at them, Parker tossed the rock, and the tiger beastman’s eyes followed it. His breathing even seemed to stop for a moment.

“You guys can use ores to trade for food and water. It seems that your life down here isn’t bad.”

The tiger beastman said, “It’s true that living here is better than living up there. However, it’s very difficult to save up to 1,000 ores. It’d be considered good for one person to leave in ten years.”

Hearing the clanking sounds of the ores in the rock, the tiger beastman’s heart also palpitated with it.

Looking at how the sound of the ores had attracted the gaze of the beastmen nearby, the tiger beastman said anxiously, “Quickly return them to me. Otherwise, even I won’t be able to keep them.”

Parker smiled and said, “I’ll ask you one more question before returning them to you.”

“Go ahead.” The tiger beastman immediately said.

“How many four-striped beastmen are there here? Do you know of a four-striped lion beastman?”

To quickly take the ores back, the tiger beastman replied anxiously before Parker finished his words, “Of course I do!”
