Chapter 348 (1/2)
As soon as I entered the entrance channel, it suddenly opened up in front of me, and another vast cave appeared. On both sides of the channel, Large Prismatic crystals ”grow” on the ground. These crystals emit dreamlike light and illuminate the whole cave.
Looking at the potholes around and the adventurers digging crystals not far away, Donne and Fiona showed strange smiles.
”Wow! Isn't this the light crystal that the boy just sold? It's everywhere!?”
Brian widened his eyes and shouted, ”pick it up here. He dares to sell a hundred gold coins!? is he crazy?! I'm going to settle with him!”
”So, the pit is a novice.”
Don shrugged: ”before entering here, who would know that the light is everywhere?”
Looking at those adventurers who dug up Light crystals, Fiona's eyes were sharp: ”Lord, it's reasonable to say that these Light crystals also belong to your property?”
”I can say so, but...”
Donne patted Fiona on the shoulder and said, ”don't be too fussy. It's convenient to be with others and yourself.”
”But...”
”Don't forget, we still count on them to help us explore the underground world. This little favor is a gift for them.”
Seeing that Donne did not intend to continue to investigate the ownership of the property, Fiona looked at the adventurers a little reluctantly. She always felt that her family's property had been robbed, which was very painful.
Seeing her like this, Donne was angry and funny. Fiona was really haggling over every penny.
But
A sudden thought came to Donne's mind - her character was quite suitable for being a housekeeper.
Uncle Depp asked, ”Lord, do we also dig some light crystals?”
Although the guard also prepared torches and oil lamps for lighting, it is obviously more convenient than Guangjing.
”Then dig.”
Don nodded. ”Don't delay too long.”
Uncle Depp waved: ”dig out the crystal.”
The members of the guard immediately dispersed in groups of four and began to look for the scattered small light crystals - those huge light crystal prisms. They couldn't even hold them up. They couldn't process them without tools.
Elsa's eyes lit up, excited and eager to try: ”can I go too?”
”Of course.”
Donne, who was discussing with Fiona how to develop Guangjing, readily agreed. At this time, he suddenly regained his mind, turned his head and widened his eyes in an instant: ”Elsa, don't --”
However, it was too late. Elated Elsa walked in front of a huge prismatic crystal, and then ”Hey” waved her fist!
The light crystal ”clicked” and exploded. The fragments roared in all directions and plunged into the surrounding cave walls. Then Elsa turned on the ground for a while and came back happily with the most beautiful light crystal fragment.
”Well...”
Donne covered his eyes and couldn't bear to look straight.
”Hey! Newcomers! What are you doing!?”
The movement here attracted the attention of some people in the distance. A group of fully armed people quickly ran over and shouted at Tang en: ”did you pay the money? Just dig up the light crystal!”
”Pay?”
Donne looked silly.
Fiona is stupid. This is Donne's property. What does he pay?
”Captain, I just saw that there was such a big light crystal here.”
An adventurer made a gesture and said, ”it can sell at least 5000 gold coins!”
”Good, you hear me?”
The captain said proudly, ”five thousand gold coins, don't ink, pay quickly!”
Fiona couldn't help but retort loudly, ”why do you ask us for money?”
”Why? Hum, it seems that you are really a newcomer who doesn't understand anything! If you don't look like a beautiful woman, I won't bother to answer your question.”
The captain glanced at them, snorted coldly and said, ”this light crystal mine has been occupied by our Xisha force mercenary regiment! Understand?! all those who want to dig light crystal here must pay for our Xisha force! A standard unit of light crystal ten gold coins!”
”The power of Sisa?”
Fiona frowned, leaned in Donne's ear and said, ”Locke told me before that the power of Sisa is a very famous mercenary group, which is as famous as the sword of Qianji and the blade of Yuanzu. They are very powerful and compete with each other, especially in the female customer group. The competition is very fierce, which makes many women love and hate them.”
Donne's mouth twitched. At the moment, the names of these mercenaries made him feel the evil taste of the will of the universe again.
He looked back and said, ”did you get permission from the local Lord?”
”Ha? Lord here? Joke! The underground world is a newly developed area. Here, whoever finds the treasure first and has the ability to hold it is whose treasure! This light crystal mine is the wealth belonging to the power of Caesar! And I Justin is the captain in charge here!”
Justin finished and looked at Donne gloomily: ”or are you going to fight with the power of Cesar?”
As soon as his voice fell, his team members poured in not far away, and dozens of sparse people quickly gathered to surround Donne and them.
