Don't Heal the Others

Chapter 59 Discovery

Chapter 59 Discovery

Xiaofeng had been on the alert for a long time. He walked out after making sure that there was nothing unusual. It seemed the Big Lich really left.

And with the departure of the Big Lich, the Muguang Forest also began to change. The dark and gloomy environment gradually disappeared and Xiaofeng could feel the light atmosphere as if the sun had risen and the darkness had melted away.

Changes in the central lake were the biggest. The muddy lake surface was covered with a layer of gray oil. Then the oil layer quickly contracted from the surrounding to the middle of the lake. It quickly disappeared and the lake surface became clear once again.

“What?”

Xiaofeng looked at the clear lake surface and suddenly noticed that there was a huge shining magic array at the bottom of the lake. He immediately became interested in it.

After thinking for a while, he directly jumped into the lake and quickly dived to the bottom.

As he jumped into the lake, he also heard the system prompt and knew that this lake was called the Muguang Lake.

The Muguang Lake was clear and there was no creature in it. It was quite big but Xiaofeng quickly found the source of the light near the edge of the lake.

There were a lot of huge slabs that were put together and covered the bottom of the lake. The pattern on the slabs just formed a giant magic array which was big enough to cover the entire Muguang Lake.

However, this giant magic array was flickering at this time, as if it was unaccomplished and was in an unstable state.

Xiaofeng immediately held his breath and came closer to the slabs. The slab was as big as the table. It looked old and the shape was irregular but the connection was seamless. It seemed that they were dug out from someplace.

Each slab was inlaid with a translucent gem that gave out faint white light. Xiaofeng immediately used advanced scouting on it.

Space Stone

Type: material

Quality: rare

Introduction: A rare gemstones with the power of space. It is an essential material for building the transmission array. It’s extremely precious.

It was actually a rare material. Xiaofeng’s eyes lit up. He didn’t know its effect but he was very happy because it was extremely precious.

Xiaofeng didn’t even use the Collection skill and dug the Space Stone out from the slabs without any hesitation. The Muguang Lake was very big but Xiaofeng searched around and found all the 128 gems. Luckily, it was the material and could be piled up in his backpack, otherwise, it was not big enough to hold them.

After collecting all the Space Stones, Xiaofeng looked at the slabs and touched his chin.

Transfer array fragment?

Type: material

Quality: unknown

Introduction: A solid slab that records part of the transmission array. It can be used to quickly build a transmission array.

After thinking for a while, Xiaofeng also dug out the slab. He put 128 slabs in the backpack and arranged them in piles like the Space Stone. At the same time, Xiaofeng also heard the system prompt and realized that his backpack was overloaded. He became slow immediately.

Fortunately, he was in the water. He swam upwards with difficulty, took a breath, and dived into the water once again. He did not give up exploring it.

When he was digging out the slab along the edge, he seemed to have seen something in the middle of the lake. So he swam immediately to find it.

Xiaofeng had gradually adapted to the weight of a backpack of slabs. But as he came closer to the middle of the lake, he started to feel greater pressure.

“It’s strange...”

Xiaofeng felt uneasy. He didn’t feel the pressure when Captain Bolton and the Big Lich became furious. However, as he came closer to the lake, he started to feel that a big force was pressing his body like the water pressure and he was unable to move.

Xiaofeng’s hesitation was only momentary. He suddenly thought that he was in the game world and would just be sent back to the bind if he were killed. So he continued to come to the middle of the lake.

Of course, he also planned to run away when he was at stake. After all, he would lose experience points after being killed.

“This is...”

Xiaofeng slowly came closer to the middle of the lake and a scene came into view.

The center of the lake caved in and there was a clay sculpture in the hollow.

There was a vivid clay sculpture in the center of the bottom of the Muguang Lake. It was kneeling on the ground. It looked like a tall man who was unreconciled and was shouting but it had a pair of wide wings on its back. This sculpture was vivid.

“The Angel?”

Xiaofeng believed that it was the angle at first sight. This clay sculpture was very similar to the image of the angel in the propaganda animation of Myth.

The clay sculpture of the Angel was kneeling on one knee at the bottom of the lake. It looked up at the sky and opened its mouth as if it was shouting. It raised one hand as if it wanted to catch something.

But a sword penetrated its chest and nailed it to the bottom of the lake.

This sword was also made of clay. It was huge and pierced the clay of Angel. It was nailed into the bottom of the lake, and half of it was outside.

The clay sculpture hadn’t been eroded by the lake water. The lake water seemed to have been squeezed out by some unknown power and a vacuum area then appeared. It protected the scene like the enchantment. Not only the lake water but also the soil at the bottom was squeezed out. That was the reason why there was a hollow.

Xiaofeng naturally dared not come close to this vacuum area. He walked around it and found something else.

Xiaofeng heard the rumble of water.

Above the vacuum area, something became brighter and brighter in the middle of the lake. Xiaofeng immediately swam upwards to have a look.

It was like the sound of bubbles breaking in the water. Xiaofeng found a fist-sized golden crystal in this place.

But it was covered by a layer of sticky substance that looked like the sludge. Now the sticky layer was shrinking and the crystal gradually appeared. That was why Xiaofeng noticed that it was becoming brighter. This light was coming from the golden crystal.

Source of Muguang

Type: energy body

Quality: unknown

Introduction: It contains a strong and powerful bright force and it is the energy core of the Muguang Forest.

It was good stuff! Xiaofeng’s eyes lit up. He grabbed the golden crystal and threw it into his backpack without hesitation.

The sticky object that covered the Source of Muguang also became a fist-sized ball and floated beside the Source of Muguang quietly. Xiaofeng put the Source of Muguang into his backpack and looked at this jelly-like gray sticky object. His eyes lit up once again.

The root of all evil

Type: energy body

Quality: unknown

Introduction: It contains a strong force of death. Generally, it is only produced in the graveyard where there are many souls.

It was similar to the Source of Muguang. Xiaofeng didn’t know if the Big Lich had used this to spread the atmosphere of death in the Muguang Forest. Xiaofeng also picked it up and put it into his backpack.

Xiaofeng put the two energy bodies in his backpack. He was about to search around for something else when he suddenly heard a faint cracking sound. But he didn’t know if it was just his illusion.

Xiaofeng had checked the bottom of the lake many times and was sure that he was alone. So he suddenly became vigilant after hearing this unusual cracking sound. He looked around with vigilance and then subconsciously stared at the clay sculpture in the middle of the lake.

Xiaofeng had excellent eyesight. He sharply found that a little bit of mud fell off from the clay sculpture of the sword. He looked at it more carefully and noticed that the edge of the giant sword was shining coldly because the mud had already come off.

Wait!

Xiaofeng suddenly had a bold idea. This clay sculpture may not be a statue. It might be the Angle. The Angel had been kneeling at the bottom of the lake for a long time and it was covered with a layer of silt.

A crisp sound.

Xiaofeng heard another cracking sound. He was close to it and was looking at it carefully, so he immediately noticed that the palm of the clay sculpture suddenly cracked.

Xiaofeng immediately retreated. He was scared. Now he was sure that this was definitely not the clay sculpture. Besides, it seemed that it changed after he put the Source of Muguang into his backpack!

Xiaofeng suddenly felt guilty at this thought. The clay sculpture didn’t move now and Xiaofeng dared not stay here any longer. He swam away quickly and cautiously and fled to the shore.

“Fuck! It’s too heavy!”

As soon as he set foot on the ground, Xiaofeng understood the true meaning of overload in the system prompt.

His legs gave out and he nearly fell on the ground despite his strong constitution.

But Xiaofeng gritted his teeth and stood up straight under this huge pressure. He moved his arms and legs for a while to help him adapt to this weight. Then he took out the returning scroll from his backpack and crumbled it to return back to Tianlong City.

There were already some players at the transmission spot of Tianlong City. Almost all the senior players of the first class had already finished the trail mission and entered different main cities. Besides, more and more players started to know the strategy of the trail mission, so it also became easier than before. A large number of players were constantly flooding into the major cities.

“Oh! It’s you! Brave adventurer, the Bishop, and the High Priest and Captain Bolton have been waiting for you in the main hall. Please hurry up and meet them.”

Xiaofeng didn’t stay here and quickly went to the Tianlong City branch. But he hadn’t fully adapted to the weight yet, so he couldn’t walk fast.

When he arrived at the door of the temple, the two knights guarding the door immediately greeted him warmly.

This made Xiaofeng a bit strange. These knights were not so polite when he came here last time.

He quickly came to the main house with doubts. The ritualists and knights that he met along the way all nodded to him friendly instead of turning a blind eye to him, which made Xiaofeng feel stranger.

“Haha! Brave Dad! You are here!”

Xiaofeng heard the cheerful laughter of Captain Bolton after entering the main hall.

Xiaofeng looked inside the hall. In addition to the High Priest and Captain Bolton, there was also an old white-bearded man inside. The name on his head was Bishop of Tianlong City.

“This is Mr. Kaiser, the head of the Tianlong City branch of the Temple of Light. Brave ritualist, the Bishop is deeply impressed by your heroic performance and he wants to meet you personally.” The High Priest said and looked at Xiaofeng admiringly.

“Good job, adventurer, Captain Bolton made some very complimentary remarks about you.”

Bishop Kaiser also said to Xiaofeng. He touched his beard and smiled at Xiaofeng, but Xiaofeng always felt that the old man had ulterior motives.
