Chapter 244: Mini Magic Crystal Vein

“The device that Big Brother SpyingBlade is looking for is a magic crystal conversion device. It has a wide range of applications, and is very expensive. It’s the equivalent of our world’s electricity generator. I saw one in the lab…” Little Ye Tian explained for everyone.

They had followed the minecart rail, and arrived at the other mine. Ye Cang questioned whether the device was really lost? “Did the quest giver ever say how it was lost? This isn’t just a small distance away.”

“The ones giving me quests are all important people, so I don’t ask about their secrets…” SpyingBlade also felt it was somewhat odd. “However, he seemed rather frantic when he mentioned that it was lost. Something must have happened here.”

“Could it be that the tiger attacked them?” FrozenCloud said, joining in on their conversation.

“Probably. However, why were they bringing the magic crystal conversion device to here? It would only be used to power the worker’s tools or weapons. What quest giver trying to do?” Little Ye Tian nodded.

“It was a dwarf I met at an underground bar. He should be a professional miner. He said he was from the steel empire…” SpyingBlade recalled what he could.

The Steel Empire, super power of the west. Famous for their mining and forging technology. They’re mainly composed of humans, dwarves, and beastmen. Besides the steel goddess in the capital, they have no official religion. Homeland of the great hero, the most violent merchant – Alulu. Someone who could make a dragon buy vegetables, and make demons buy holy bibles. Most importantly, one can’t forget how Alulu risked her life to save the continent. Everyone knows how wealthy she was, however, after her death, her property vanished along with her. Everyone guessed that she must have hidden her treasure somewhere on the continent… Now, the Steel Empire is run by her descendents.” Little Ye Tian explained what she had learned from the church’s books. It only took her seconds to memorize each of them. SpyingBlade once again sighed in amazement. This girl probably knew more than the scholars who lived in this virtual world.

“This kind of woman must definitely have a very unique husband.” FrozenCloud said, becoming interested.

“Mm, her husband was a dwarf. He was nothing special to look at, and was actually somewhat sloppy, however he was one of the commanders of the three great frontiers during the war. The God of Lightning and War – Lightning Fist Balor. At that time, the only one who could subdue Alulu was him. It is said that their first meeting was Alulu knocking on his door on a bright morning to sell Balor some things, however the situation was reversed. Alulu ended up buying his toothbrush for a sky high price. This was when Alulu began to fiercely pursue Balor. She spent a fortune helping him with his trials, and even helped him achieve victory many times, all just to show her love for him. After her death, Balor never married another woman. This also became a royal custom. The Steel Empire’s monarch can only have one consort. It’s also the favorite story of many bards.” Little Ye Tian actively explained.

SpyingBlade committed the names of these two heroes to memory. It would probably be useful in the future. Ye Cang quietly murmured, “Never married again…”

Zhang ZhengXiong felt a twinge in his heart, and gave Little Ye Tian a look. Little Ye Tian felt Ye Cang’s sadness, and recalled his memories. The image of her father full of despair while holding that woman with the shattered head. “Father, I didn’t mean…”
