Chapter 119 - The Tenth Horde (4) (2/2)

It appeared that even the creature's brain was also black in color, the same as its blood...

Afterward, Jeremy turned back towards the spider's cold corpse before raising the spear into the air.

Then, out of nowhere, he swung the spear downward diagonally from above the spider's head...

*Whoosh*

The spear was swung down powerfully as the brain chunks on the spear blade were flung out with the passing wind.

A split second later...

*Splitch*

The sound of thick flesh and bones being sliced apart rang out within the silent tutorial chamber...

The dead spider's head was bisected in half, as the left and right parts dropped towards the two sides like a watermelon sliced in half by a kitchen knife.

Meanwhile, the perpetrator, Jeremy, didn't show any expression at all after doing and seeing such an obnoxious thing.

'Let's see...'

Jeremy thought briefly while looking scrutinizingly at the creature's brain parts that were now split open in two, clearly exposing the black brain clumps inside the white skull.

Then Jeremy used the spear blade to rake and poke all around the creature's brain areas as if wanting to play with the brain.

However, Jeremy was, in fact, finding something within the brain clumps, not playing with it in any way...

*Splat*

*Splat*

The unpleasant noises rang out as Jeremy continued to poke left and right...

Until...

'Oh, there it is...'

Jeremy exclaimed inwardly after finally seeing something within the black brain mush. It was a small transparent prismatic crystal the size of a person's pinky nail embedded inside the mashed brain.

Well, due to Jeremy poking here and there inside the creature's skull, the brain chunks inside now looked unlike typical brains anymore, but it was more like a disgusting black paste instead.

Afterward, Jeremy used the spear blade to rake out the crystal from the disgusting black brain...

*Cling...*

The almost inaudible clinging noise rang out when the tiny transparent crystal fell on the floor.

Surprisingly enough for the black brain and blood of the contaminated forsaker to have a transparent crystal embedded within.

Also, the crystal looked as pure as it could be; it was indeed bizarre to have such a pure thing stay together with one of the most corrupted things like this.

Right now, Jeremy was looking at the crystal with a light smile as he scrutinized its looks carefully...

Albeit still being covered by some black blood stains and tiny brain pieces, Jeremy could still roughly see its looks somehow...

From the crystal's outer appearance, if it were on Earth, the prismatic crystal should be surely called 'Doubly Terminated Crystal' as it had two natural terminations on both ends of its body.

At first glance, the crystal looked very ordinary and typical, just like any other crystal in the market, which was not expensive at all. At most, it would be sold at a moderate price to any lady that wanted to supplement her own beauty.

However, the little thing lying on the ground ahead of Jeremy was another story entirely, as the crystal on Earth and this one here couldn't even be placed at the same level in the first place.

Whether it be in the aspect of usefulness, price, or rarity, the transparent crystal on the ground had clearly exceeded the one from Earth by a large margin.

After all, the transparent crystal was one of the main currencies used by most races on Ortus.

It simply meant if a person somehow carried enough amount of the said crystal and moved to live in another race's territory, the person would be able to buy literally anything he wanted by spending the crystal he had.

'An unexpected windfall, huh...'

'Like this, it looks like my last battle here will be a lot easier than I've initially thought...'

Jeremy thought with a mysterious smile while looking silently at the nail-sized crystal lying on the ground....
