Ch 39: Request for Twelve Magic Cores
“Demonic Creature!!!”
Sun Lei let out a cry of surprise, taking several steps back, his eyes full of panic and vigilance.
His hand instinctively reached for his waist, wanting to grip his weapon!
But when Sun Lei’s hand touched his empty sword scabbard, he realized that his weapon was gone!
Because of the explosion, he had no idea where his sword had flown.
“My sword…”
Sun Lei’s face froze for a moment, and he looked down at his waist.
All his strength was in swordsmanship, and he was not proficient in fist techniques.
“There’s no other way.”
He gritted his teeth, hurriedly pulled out the sword scabbard as a longsword, and looked up at Mos warily.
One person and one rat began to confront each other.
The light of the flames flickered constantly, and it was only at this time that Sun Lei truly saw Mos’s appearance!
A body of fluffy snow-white fur, ruby-red eyes, it actually looked petite and cute!
If it weren’t for the flames surrounding Mos, Sun Lei might have thought Mos was just a harmless little pet!
After an unknown amount of time, Sun Lei swallowed to relieve his parched throat.
He looked at Mos, who was still not moving, and a hint of doubt gradually rose in his heart.
How did his injuries recover?
If it was the rescue team, then it shouldn’t be possible for them to heal him and then leave him where he was!
But if it wasn’t the rescue team’s treatment, then who healed his injuries?
With that kind of injury, Sun Lei didn’t believe that his body’s self-healing power could recover.
Thinking of this, Sun Lei couldn’t help but look at Mos, who was still quietly squatting on the stone, and tentatively asked:
“My injuries… did you heal me?”
“Mo!”( It was indeed me!)
Mos nodded, responding with a proud expression.
Sun Lei’s face couldn’t help but freeze when he saw that Mos actually understood his words and even nodded in response.
“I see, so you’re a Spirit Beast…”
Sun Lei slightly lowered the sword scabbard in his hand, feeling extremely fortunate in his heart!
He never expected that he would encounter an extremely rare Spirit Beast and even have his life saved by it!
Spirit Beast is an alternative name for Demonic Creatures.
Most Demonic Creatures have a natural aversion to humans, and will immediately attack upon seeing them!
But nothing is absolute, and there are still a small number of Demonic Creatures that are friendly to humans.
Some of them are beings who are naturally fond of peace, while others are Demonic Creatures that have been tamed by humans and passed down through generations!
There are also some Demonic Creatures that already possess the wisdom and civilization to communicate with each other.
People have also given these Demonic Creatures a name different from Demonic Creatures.
Spirit Beast! Magical Beast! Exotic Races!
Spirit Beast is the unified name for wild Demonic Creatures that possess goodwill!
These Spirit Beasts will not attack humans without rhyme or reason!
Of course, if humans attack them, they will still fight back.
Spirit Beasts have all kinds of abilities and appearances, some powerful and some weak, and are a group of extremely spiritual Demonic Creatures.
Because of these Spirit Beasts, a group of Professionals who use contracted Spirit Beasts to form combat power have also appeared among humans ━ Monster Users.
“Mo?”( Spirit Beast? What’s that?)
Mos was slightly stunned, not understanding what Sun Lei was talking about when he said Spirit Beast.
But she didn’t want to know, she would always find out in the future anyway.
Now that Sun Lei was awake, there was no need for her to stay any longer.
Mos raised her hand and waved at Sun Lei, then turned around and prepared to find a new exit to leave the sewer.
On Sun Lei’s side, seeing Mos turn around and intend to leave, he hurriedly spoke out of anxiety:
“Please wait a moment!”
“Mo?”
Mos turned around to look at Sun Lei, calling out in confusion, wondering what else he wanted.
Sun Lei took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm, and then slowly said:
“Thank you very much for healing my injuries, but could you please do me another favor?”
As he spoke, Sun Lei took out a small bag from his pocket, placed it on the ground, and continued:
“I want to find my teammates, I know you can understand what I mean.”
“Here are twelve Bronze-Level Magic Cores, that’s all I have on me right now, can they be used as a reward for asking you to help?”
After Sun Lei finished speaking, he looked at Mos with a burning gaze.
Demonic Creatures and Demonic Creatures don’t actually get along peacefully either.
They will attack each other, all for the sake of the Magic Core in the other’s body.
And Demonic Creatures can become even more powerful by absorbing these Magic Cores!
It can be said that Magic Cores are not only hard currency in the hands of humans, but also something that Demonic Creatures crave!
Sun Lei didn’t know if Mos would agree, because no one had ever done this before.
But Sun Lei could only do this, he needed Mos’s power!
Mos can control flames, and flames are light!
Without light, even if Sun Lei had a weapon, only ten percent of his strength would remain, and he wouldn’t even know how to walk!
Plus, Mos has the healing ability to heal all his injuries!
These are of great help to him now!
Sun Lei knew that he had to seize the opportunity and strive for Mos’s help!
Without Mos, he would probably only be able to pray in place, praying that the next thing he encountered would not be a Demonic Creature but a rescue team!
……………………
At this time, Mos was also constantly considering whether to agree to Sun Lei’s request.
To be honest, these twelve Magic Cores were too attractive to her!
The moment Sun Lei took them out, Mos almost agreed to his request!
But Mos also understood in her heart how high the risk of getting involved in this incident was!
The World Gate Descent will definitely bring many Demonic Creatures!
Humans will inevitably send out many Awakeners to deal with this World Gate in the face of this situation.
But even so, the situation doesn’t look optimistic.
The sewer collapsed for unknown reasons, and Sun Lei was alone and seriously injured and unconscious, all of which indicated one thing!
The Demonic Creatures that descended were very strong, so strong that they were able to defeat or even wipe out the team to which Sun Lei belonged!
So Mos didn’t really want to participate, implementing the word “Gou,” avoiding it was the safest choice!
But!
Mos jumped down from the stone and glanced at the Magic Cores inside the small bag.
A full twelve Magic Cores, Mos’s tears were about to flow from her mouth!
“I originally wanted to refuse, but I can’t help it, the other party gave too much!”
Mos murmured, and in the end, she decided to agree to Sun Lei!
“Mo!”
Mos stood in front of Sun Lei and nodded to him, indicating that she had agreed to the other party’s request!
Seeing Mos nod, Sun Lei immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly said:
“Really, thank you!”
As he spoke, Sun Lei slowly squatted down and stretched out his hand towards Mos, cautiously approaching her.
“Then I’ll leave it to you, little fellow!”
“Mo!”
Mos looked at Sun Lei’s outstretched hand and placed her paw on it.
At this point, one person and one rat had temporarily formed an alliance!
“Can I call you Xiao Mo?”
Since they had already decided to act together, Sun Lei felt that he needed to give Mos a name.
After all, he had never seen a Spirit Beast similar to Mos’s appearance, and he didn’t know that she was actually a rat.
“Mo!”
Mos nodded, which was considered an agreement.
Xiao Mo is fine, Mos didn’t think there was anything wrong with being called that.
“Then I’ll call you Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo, I’m counting on you!”
