Chapter 1448 - Mineral (1) (1/2)
The world hidden within the mountain of coarse silver was an astonishing one. Wall to wall, for hundreds of meters, dense metals shone with blaring rainbow lights, covering its interior. Surprisingly, unlike what Dyon expected, there were major hallowed out tunnels, all leading to this very core.
In the center of everything, an oddly shaped crystalline structure sat. It seemed to hover in mid-air without any support to speak of, spinning slowly.
Suddenly, Dyon felt a keen sense of danger. His divine sense swept over everything, but he couldn't find a single enemy. To make matters more confusing, Dyon was certain that without his method of entry, even a celestial would have to dig for months to reach this point. In addition, even the formation masters who had come from the Sapientia Quadrant Guilds wouldn't have dared to use his method because he was certain that none of them had powerful enough divine senses to see what was inside of the mountain. For all they knew, it was just a dense mass of metal through and through.
Still, Dyon trusted his instincts. Although he had only just begun to refine his own bestial senses, they had already saved him from danger more than once.
”Don't move…” Dyon said to Madeleine softly, holding her more tightly. He was prepared to send her out with a teleportation array the moment things went left.
Madeleine nodded without a word. She too had more bestial-like instincts from following Amethyst's path. They weren't as refined as Dyon's, but at the very least, she too felt that something was off.
'Little Yang, Little Yin, what's going on? Do you have any idea where this danger is coming from?' A massive pressure was weighing on Dyon's heart. He felt the need to run away immediately, but his more human-like thoughts told him that that wasn't the answer either.
'Big brother, this is bad.' Little Yin said in a weak voice.
'Very bad.' Little Yang seemed to think that Little Yin's words weren't even remotely enough, but even he didn't dare to say much more.
They didn't have much to worry about themselves, but they had grown fond of Dyon. In addition, a celestial hamster could only ever bond once in their lifetime. Even if they survived after Dyon died, they would be doomed to float along the time stream without an anchor. Such was their curse.
'Stop being cryptic, explain.' Dyon frowned. Now wasn't the time to panic. He had come for the sake of spending some time with his wife. In fact, he had purposely chosen the locations with the least amount of dangers. Although their treasures were also comparably lesser, he felt that there were more important things than chasing the biggest payoff for now.
Yet, even with his efforts, he somehow ran into a place likely more dangerous than the locations he purposely chose to avoid!
'The core of this coarse silver mountain is a sprite.' Little Yang said as though this should explain everything.
'What the hell are you talking about?'
