Chapter 141: Treasures!

Although it seems like the draconian snake was trying to enter his good grace, not even for a single moment did Marvin thought that this insidious beast was trying to curry favor with him.

"Is it safe to go there?" He asked with squinted eyes, starting right at the little snake.

Xiao Xie felt as if he was staring right at his soul, yet it still continued with its insidious plan and said,

"Yes, it is absolutely safe!"

This was an honest lie. It was safe for itself, but not for Marvin. The sneaky snake used a loophole in the blood contract that could only be applied in the sentence he just said.

"Let me ask again. Is it safe to go there, not for you but me?" Marvin asked again and this time, he made sure that this sneaky little bastard won't be able to use any loopholes.

"It's not safe for you. You can enter and explore the first lair but the other two are littered with traps and will reap your life before you even know it."

The Draconian Snake exposed the truth as it was bounded by the rules of the blood contract. Honestly, it didn't mind killing Marvin and then dying due to the clause imposed by the blood contract. It was better than being a slave of a human for all eternity.

"Oh, tell me everything about your lairs, locations, and traps included," Marvin demanded as he wanted to take the treasures in those lairs for himself.

"The first lair is right beneath the blood valley. The second lair is located behind a waterfall near the supply camps of the blood fiends. The only way to reach the second lair is to use the interconnecting passage of the first lair. However, the interconnecting underground passage is filled with miasma that instantly melts beast and humans, alike. The third layer is located in the world of Camelot. However, you'll need to pass the world connecting portal to reach that place, but the underground passage that leads to the world connecting portal is filled to the brim with lava that is enforced with magic power."

"So, I'll be burned to crisp, huh?"

"Yes,"

"Can't you go there and get the treasures for me?"

"I can't. My body is too weak right now, and I'll die the moment I step inside the interconnecting passages that leads to the second and third lairs..."

Marvin completely trusted Xiao Xie words as it was connected to him through the rules of the blood contract.

"This is a bit disappointing. But at least I can still take the treasures left inside your first lair," Marvin said as gloominess took over Xiao Xie.

It has stored a hell of a lot of treasure in the first liar to use it, but now Marvin was going to benefit from its hard work.

"Brother, I am done dismantling the beast, and I got three essence gems but I don't know what other treasures might be in this mess of flesh and blood as there's no information about a monster lord like this one, in the virtual network," Fatty Liam said as he handed over an aqua blue, greenish-black and a greyish-green gem to Marvin.

[ Name: Water Essence Gem

High-Grade Energy Item

Description: A condensed form of water elemental mana

Effect: Purifies magic power into a thousand units of the water elemental mana]

[ Name: Poison Essence Gem

Mid-Grade Energy Item

Description: A condensed form of poison elemental mana

Effect: Purifies magic power into five hundred units of the poison elemental mana ]

[ Name: Wood Essence Gem

Low-Grade Energy Item

Description: A condensed form of wood elemental mana

Effect: Purifies magic power into fifty units of the wood elemental mana ]

Noah notified him of the uses of the three essence gems once Marvin used his skill Inspect on them, one after another.

"These three gems by themselves will make us become millionaires!" Marvin said as he stared at the glittering gems in his palm.

"Wow, that's great!"

Fatty Liam was rich but he felt happy and excited at the prospect of becoming even richer!

Marvin, on the other hand, was pondering over the uses of these gems. He could use three different types of elemental magic if he uses these gems to evolve his magic power into elemental mana. However, he wasn't sure if there would be side effects of containing three different types of elemental mana in his body.

Though he immediately asked Noah about it, and he realized that there isn't any way to contain three types of elemental mana in a single body from the reply he got. Thus, he could only evolve his magic power into a single type of elemental mana.

The energy evolves from Magic Power Mana Elemental Mana!

However, mana can only evolve into single elemental mana.

Or so that's what Marvin understood.

"Should we store all of its dismantled body parts, as we don't know what might be useful and what not?" Fatty Liam asked him.

"No need to do that, you know I got special eyes, and they can tell me what is useful and what's not. I will tell you what to store and what not to, follow my command." Marvin said a white lie as he utilized his special ability to check the details of the dismantled body parts of the Xiao Xie true body.

Soon after, they stored its poisonous glands, elemental heart, and all of its scales in their spatial storage device. The scales of the beasts could be used to create armors and weapons. The poisonous glands could be devoured to gain immunity against poison. While its elemental heart blood could be used to create a talisman of utmost powers.

"Where are my sister-in-law?" Fatty Liam said while laying on the grassy ground. He was honestly tired and exhausted because of experiencing the draconian might of the draconian snake a while ago, and it was only due to sheer determination that he reached this place.

"I told them to go back to the camp and group up with you, but I guess you missed each other. I think they might be worried about me," Marvin replied as he took out the love token that the princess gave him.

"I am fine, and best of all, I've defeated the draconian snake. If you receive this message, then please return to the creek. Fatty Liam is already here. I'll be waiting for you guys to get here," Marvin internally said as he clutched the love token closer to his heart.

He was sure that it'll convey his feelings to Leilani.

---------

"Just what was that?" Bai Yue said as she wiped her sweat with the back of her hands.

"Whatever it was it was terrifying, and it came from the direction of the creek," Leila replied as she helped Bai Yue stand up with her magic power.

"Shouldn't we go back there and help Marvin face the beast?" Bai Yue said as she feared that the worse has happened to the love of her life.

"Don't be stupid. I won't let you go towards that place."

"But"

"Even if we go back there, we will die for no reason. Besides, I am responsible for your safety and I'll never allow you to throw away your life for no reason. Besides, we can only take revenge if we are alive. Anyway, let's just hope that he survives this encounter." Leilani said as she carried Bai Yue towards the campsite hidden beneath overgrown vines.

"You are right,"

If something happens to Marvin, she'll forever hunt down the beast that scared her silly.

Just a few minutes had passed when Leilani's love token shone in brilliant emerald color.

"Eh, I think he is all right!" She said before playing the message that was transmitted to her love token from Marvin's love token.

This love token had a secret ability to convert words into feeling and feeling into words.

The message played and by the time it ended, a smile blossomed on the face of the two beauties Leilani and Bai Yue.

"Let's go back," Leilani said as she changed course

"Yes, thank God he is alright," Bai Yue said as tears streamed down the corners of her eyes.

She was immensely happy that he was fine.
