Chapter 427 Unmanned Camp, Reef Awakens
Chapter 427 Unmanned Camp, Reef Awakens
Sun Lili hung the flower bud on Su Li's small collection bag at the back of her waist, and the two continued their exploration.
A few minutes later.
Zuli used the tip of her sword to push aside the dense ferns in front of her, then suddenly stopped. Twenty meters away in a clearing in the woods, a dozen simple wooden huts stood silently. In the center, in the stone-built hearth, the charcoal still retained its honeycomb-like structure from burning.
“Someone has been here.” Su Li lowered her voice, her fingers tracing the edge of the hearth. “The charcoal ash is still damp, at most two days ago.”
He picked up the half-fish bone; the neat cut marks on it were clearly made by a metal knife.
Sun Lili's spatial perception spread out like ripples on water, and the fluorescent patterns on her magical girl outfit glowed faintly. After a moment, she opened her eyes: "There's no sign of life around, but I've discovered a cave." She pointed to the rock wall behind the camp, "What appears to be a rock wall is actually an illusion."
Su Li walked to the rock wall and gently pushed it. Sure enough, she felt nothing.
Su Li and Sun Lili passed through the illusion and entered the interior of the rock wall. Inside was a cave.
At the end of the cave, a metal door frame inlaid with mother-of-pearl came into view. A deep blue light membrane surged in the center of the door frame, and reliefs of three-eyed people appeared on its surface from time to time.
"Could it be a magical energy technology civilization?" Su Li guessed, looking at the light membrane.
Sun Lili stretched out her hand and gestured for a while, then grabbed a crystal with two fingers.
The light film on the metal door vanished instantly.
"There's no mechanism to prevent spatial magic, so I removed the shield activation device inside."
Sun Lili fiddled with the crystal in her hand, "It's round and has patterns in the middle, it's quite pretty."
Su Li inserted the greatsword into the crack in the door, and the sharp sword energy ignited, cutting the lock inside.
Pushing open the door, you'll find a downward-sloping passageway inside.
The two walked down the passage for a distance and arrived at a hall with a diameter of 100 meters.
The hall was decorated very luxuriously, with a large number of energy patterns on the floor and a bright blue glow.
In the center of the hall stands a statue of a three-eyed woman with a slightly plump face and a dignified appearance. She holds a jade plate in her hands, with a blue droplet of water in the center.
Su Li glanced at the plate. In the center of the water droplet, there was a pattern that was exactly the same as the pattern on the reef's hand. Around the pattern, there were nine small grooves, in which crystals were condensing.
"I can smell the baby's scent."
Su Li tapped the bottom of the plate with her hand, using a skillful force to dislodge the crystals that were condensing in the groove. She then caught them with the blade of her sword.
I released my magical energy and sensed it; there was no malignant energy.
Let's examine it.
【Energy Essence (Semi-finished Product)】
[A condensed essence of a certain energy possesses the ability to purify the spirit; however, because it is not yet fully mature, its effects are almost negligible.]
"The crystallization of purifying the spirit? The ability to cover the mind with external mental images is also a kind of mental attack. This should be able to resist the covering of mental images."
Su Li looked at the statue; it was a resource for mental purification—a good thing.
"Can we take this thing home? Mingyu's statue looks quite lonely all by itself," Sun Lili asked curiously.
Su Li looked at Sun Lili with admiration, thinking, "As expected of my wife, she has the same idea as me."
Su Li immediately began examining the statue. After a while, she shook her head and said, "No, the statue itself doesn't have this function. What's truly useful is the array below it, and the power supply from who-knows-where."
“This energy channel is buried very deep, and I’m afraid it might be related to something on the seabed.”
Sun Lili's face betrayed her disappointment: "It's a pity. This is exactly what I need most."
Su Li patted Sun Lili's head. "There will be more in the future, trust me. Let's go back now."
The two returned to the beach, where all the useful monsters had been cleared away, keeping Sophia and Song Mingyu extremely busy.
At dawn, as the two moons sank below the horizon, Reef on the sofa opened its eyes.
He saw a face right in front of him and instinctively reached out to dodge it, then realized that he had been rescued.
"You're finally awake." Sun Keke put away the half-finished teddy bear she had sewn. "Come with me, it's just the right time for dinner."
Coco brought Reef to the restaurant. Reef rested on the sofa in the entertainment room. After walking a few steps, they arrived at the restaurant.
Sofia handed the food to Reef, saying, "I don't know if you can eat this food. If you can't, just leave it."
What was provided to the reef was not the secret food, but ordinary food. They had already consumed the secret food, Five-Snake Soup, earlier.
The purpose is to prevent the reef from being taken to the local tribes in the future and making irresponsible statements.
"No, this meal is too lavish." Jiao looked at the food on the table and swallowed hard. He hadn't eaten anything other than fish and seaweed in a long time.
Faced with the choice between chopsticks and a knife and fork, Jiao chose the knife and fork. Jiao ate quickly, but his movements were not rough. When cutting the meat, it didn't slip. Su Li and Sophia exchanged a glance and realized that Jiao must have received a good education.
After finishing breakfast, Jiao patted his stomach contentedly. Looking at his empty plate, he suddenly realized that he had eaten quite a lot of precious food. Then, blushing, he said, "I'm sorry, the food was just too delicious, I ate a bit too much."
"It's alright. As long as you like it." Sofia gently patted Reef's head; this child reminded her of Ivan from before.
Then, looking at his younger brother with a bit of frustration, he saw that the once handsome blond boy had grown into a 190cm muscular brute in such a short time.
Very angry!
Ivan scratched his head, puzzled. Why was his sister looking at him like that? Had she found out that he had secretly drunk his sister's cooking wine back in Blue Star City?
