Unsurprisingly, along with this clicking sound, densely packed spider webs of leons appeared on the originally extremely hard stone sculpture.
Although the crack was extremely subtle, not much different from a hairline, Nalant knew that his 'crooked idea' really worked.
"Ook, Ook! How...how could this happen?"
The goblin leader Lumba also saw this scene.
When he saw those tiny cracks, the goblin leader could fit two eggs into his mouth.
Because they know best how hard this gargoyle statue is.
But Nalant had no time to explain to the goblin, as the time was approaching two minutes.
The gargoyles may recover at any time, so there must be no further delay.
So in the next moment, Nalant jumped directly on the back of the gargoyle, and then raised the sword in his hand high again.
"cut!"
Nalant used his fighting spirit to the extreme, and then slashed hard at the statue.
when!
Click!
There was still a sharp impact sound like metal clashing.
However, what was different from before was that this time Nalant's sword did not just scrape off a layer of the gargoyle's skin like before.
Instead, a large gap of more than ten centimeters popped out directly on the back of the gargoyle.
"Haha, now I see how you can act like a turtle!"
Narante felt that this gargoyle would have the same properties as a turtle after being petrified.
However, now the turtle shell has been turned into dregs by him using scientific methods.
Dang Dang Dang!
Click, click, click!
As Nalant swung his sword vigorously again and again, the originally lifelike statue gradually became unrecognizable.
Narant also knew that to capture the thief first, capture the king. To kill this gargoyle, you would naturally have to greet him in the face.
In this way, half of the gargoyle's head had disappeared and turned into large pieces of rubble scattered on the ground.
Buzz buzz!
At this moment, the stone sculpture under Nalant began to shine with a dark red light.
"My lord, this is the gargoyle that is about to revive!"
Seeing this scene, Goblin Lumba immediately reminded Nalant.
"Don't worry, it won't survive!" Nalant was not in a hurry at this moment, because at this moment, the only thing left for the gargoyle's head was the last blow.
"Die!"
The next moment, Nalant roared loudly, and the long sword with the flashing red light struck hard on the remaining half of the gargoyle's head.
Wow! Wow!
Ouch!
Following Nalant's battle, half of the gargoyle's head was shattered.
And when the head was completely shattered, large pieces of stone immediately peeled off from the outside of the gargoyle's body.
But in the center of the stone is the body of the gargoyle.
When the real body appeared, the gargoyle only had time to let out a shrill cry, and then fell to the ground and died.
"My noble lord, the gargoyle is completely dead!"
As the gargoyle's body fell to the ground motionless, Narumba immediately shouted.
In fact, this guy didn't need to tell him, Nalant also knew about it, because his system had already provided a body shape that increased zero energy points.
"Rumba, order all the goblins to start attacking the dark creatures in front of you. In addition, the magic cannons are on standby temporarily. Do not fire without orders!"
"Yes, my lord!"
After receiving the order, Lumba immediately summoned a group of goblins and began to charge towards the dark creatures in front of them.
Because at this moment, the low-level dark creatures originally following Nalant's team had been wiped out by them.
With the addition of goblins, and without the support of gargoyles and bloodthirsty bats, these dark creatures can no longer make any big waves.
Only half an hour later, there were not many dark creatures left in the field. The Storm Rider and Wolf Rider made several brutal attacks and took away all the fish that slipped through the net.
"Everyone, clean the battlefield immediately to make sure there are no dark creatures alive!"
Seeing that there was no longer a dark creature that could stand in the field, Nalant immediately gave orders to his subordinates.
After giving the instructions, Zhuang Kang quietly waited for his subordinates to clean up the battlefield.
Not long after, Nalant's battle damage situation today was presented to him.
Six spearmen were killed, thirty goblins were killed, and the rest were all subordinates who were seriously injured, forty-three in total.
As for the Wild Wolf Knights and the Tulip Knights, there were no deaths in this battle.
Obviously, this is because the large number of kiwi fruits distributed by Narant in the past two days have had an effect.
Such casualties, compared to the killing of at least tens of thousands of dark creatures, are already negligible battle losses.
Moreover, among the dark creatures in the town this time, there are more powerful beings such as death knights or three-headed hell dogs.
This can be seen from the fact that Nalant obtained more than 3,000 energy points in one battle.
"Bring the wounded, we will go to the castle ahead immediately!"
Nalant did not set up camp on this high slope, because although the castle in front was dilapidated, it was much stronger than the wooden fence.
Just now, he had asked Shirley to send Little Bee and Swift Eagle to investigate. No matter in the town or the castle, there were no dark creatures.
Following Nalant's order, the team immediately headed towards the castle.
About ten minutes later, Narant arrived in front of this vicissitudes of life castle.
The gate of the castle has disappeared, and the walls of the castle are severely weathered and have collapsed in many places.
However, fortunately, the nobles of this world all use castles as their bases, and quality is a top priority. Therefore, no matter how dilapidated the castle is, there is no need to worry that the castle will collapse.
After entering the castle with his subordinates, Narant asked his subordinates to conduct a blanket search again for safety reasons.
Because they definitely need to spend the night here tonight.
Although it was only noon now, the problem was that Nalant needed his subordinates to plant enough sacred thorns around here.
This will prevent the castle and town from being occupied by dark creatures again after he leaves.
"Sir, my subordinate found a strange thing in the basement of the castle!" While Nalant was sitting in the vestibule, enjoying the milk tea that Lilia had just made, Quick quickly ran over and reported.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What is this strange thing?" Nalant was a little confused.
"Sir, I don't know how to describe this subordinate..." Quick shook his head.
"Then let's go and have a look!" Nalant stood up upon seeing this.
Obviously, if Quick said he didn't know, he definitely didn't know.
Afterwards, Nalant followed Quick and others directly to the basement.
And when he came to the underground of the castle, he immediately saw the strange thing that Quick said.
At the same time, he also knew why Quick said this thing could not be described.
This basement is quite spacious, at least sixty or seventy square meters.
And at the very end of the basement, a high platform was built.
On the high platform, there was a golden ball of light floating slightly up and down in the air.
In front of the high platform are many complex inscription grooves.
These inscribed grooves extend throughout the basement.
There are also streams of yellow energy in the inscription grooves that are transported to the light group above the altar along with the grooves.
"What on earth is this? An altar, but what is this sacrifice?"
Looking at everything in the basement, let alone Quaker.
Even Narante himself couldn't figure out what it was.
"Quick, go and call the Goblin Lumba!"
Facing this strange thing, Nalant did not dare to act rashly, and immediately asked Quick to call the goblin leader Lumba.
Although the Goblin clan's fighting power is limited to fighting against the five scum, they are a race native to the Holy Continent after all. Nalant thinks that Lumba is likely to know what this thing is.
Soon, Lumba was brought in by Quick.
"My noble lord, you... Oak, my God, this... this is the spirit of the earth!"
Sure enough, when this Lumba entered the basement, before he could ask Nalant what was going on, he immediately froze when he saw the yellow ball of light on the stone platform in front of him.
"Essence of the Earth, Lumba, what is the Essence of the Earth?" Not only was Nalant afraid that the goblin would be surprised, but Nalant was afraid that he would not know what this thing was.
However, now that the goblin knows what the yellow light group is, he can obviously get the answer.
"Sir, the essence of the earth is the essence of the earth!"
"The reason why flowers, plants and trees can grow on the earth is because the essence of the earth nourishes these species!"
"And this basement must have been transformed by dark creatures into an altar for extracting the essence of the earth. My dear sir, you see, these yellow rays of light converging from all directions along the groove are the essence of the earth that has been extracted!"
"It turns out to be like this, this is the essence of the earth!"
If it were in the past life and explained scientifically, it must be that the land contains certain nutrients that are needed for plant growth.
But this is a fantasy world, so Nalant has no doubts about it.
"That's right, sir. Even though I was young, I also read records about the essence of the earth from the ancient books left by our Goblin ancestors."
"But I can be sure that this is the essence of the earth."
"And the essence of the earth has many uses. Not only can it be used as pure energy, it can also be used to quickly cultivate certain monsters or plants!"
"Huh? Can elves cultivate monsters and plants?"
Suddenly, Nalant thought of something.
Doesn't the yellow elf that can mine the mana crystal mine need to come to this land of death to devour some kind of material to have such an effect?
Then there is a very high possibility that this earth essence is something that the yellow elf needs to devour.
"This... noble sir, because elves can only make contracts with humans, I don't know about it!"
"But the essence of the earth is not toxic, so if you are willing, you can let the elf try it!"
"That makes sense!" Nalant nodded, he happened to have the same idea.
So, the next moment he asked Quick to go to the vestibule to find a yellow elf.
Opening the jade box containing the yellow elf, the little guy immediately jumped to the ground.
"Little guy, do you want to eat that thing?" Nalant asked the little guy.
"Migu, Migu!"
The elf immediately sent a burst of pleasant mental waves to Nalant.
"very good!"
Nalant felt that something was happening, and the next moment he headed directly towards the stone platform in front of him.
Now that we know that this is an altar used to absorb the essence of the earth, it means that there is no danger in this basement.
In this case, Nalant needs to go there in person to collect this earth essence.
However, once the essence of the earth is collected by him, the altar for absorbing the essence of the earth will be useless from now on, and it will be considered completely scrapped.
But Narant didn't care about it, because according to what Rumba said.
If the essence of the earth is extracted excessively, it will completely damage the nearby land over time.
These lands will slowly become desertified until they become deserts where vegetation cannot grow.
Especially now that this land is already infected with death.
Without green vegetation to transport energy, the essence of the earth will be lost even more rapidly.
In this way, if we want this land to regain its vitality in the future, this altar must not be left behind.
Nalant took a clay pot and came to the front of the earth spirit that was floating up and down in the air like a ball of cotton.
Then he placed the clay pot under the earth essence, then released his spiritual power to wrap the earth essence, and then pulled it away into the clay pot.
With the pulling of Nalant's mental power, the earth essence that was originally in the form of a ball slowly shrank, and then it was like water vapor condensed into water flow, and soon merged into the clay pot.
After about ten seconds, this large group of earth essence was completely merged into the clay pot.
Narant looked at the clay pot. The ball of light that had a diameter of at least sixty or seventy centimeters before turned into liquid, and now it was not even half full.
And as the light group was completely taken away by Nalant, the altar also completely stopped with a buzzing sound.
The yellow light group that was continuously transported in the groove has disappeared without a trace.
Nalant had known this result for a long time, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
Immediately, he returned to the previous position with the clay pot, squatted down, and handed the earth essence to the yellow elf.
"Little guy, drink!" Nalant said to the little guy with great expectation.
Needless to say, the power of the magic energy cannon is needless to say, but it is a pity that the magic energy crystal limits the use of the magic energy cannon.
For example, before, after the gargoyle died, Nalant could no longer bear to use the magic cannon.
It’s not that I’m reluctant to part with gold coins.
Rather, he was worried that after using up the few magic stones he had, his magic cannons would become scrap metal.
But if this earth spirit can really give the yellow elf the ability to mine magic crystals, then the scarcity of magic crystals will no longer exist.
Migu! Migu!
Following Nalant's instructions, the little guy screamed happily twice, then put his little mouth into the clay pot and started licking it.
The little guy eats very quickly, and in just ten seconds the earth essence will bottom out.
belch!
Fortunately, the next moment, the little guy happened to burp.
Along with the burping, the yellow light on the little guy started to change.
The originally weak yellow light began to gradually brighten, and the color also began to gradually deepen.
This state lasted for about half a minute, and when the little guy returned to normal again, it was no longer the original yellow elf.
Instead, he became a wealthy golden elf.
"Is this considered a success?"
Although the little guy had obvious changes and his whole body became golden, Nalant was not sure.
"Distinguished Sir, congratulations, you have obtained an elf who can open the magic crystal mine!"
However, Nalant didn't know it, but Lumba did.
Seeing this situation, he immediately excitedly reminded Nalant.
