Crystal? Silica beryllium? Celestite?

The underground cave is very large, and Linsey cannot peek into the whole picture and details of this underground Mountain Peak just by relying on the torch in his hand.

"The elder is right there."

At the same time, Eyeless People, who was responsible for leading the way, spoke.

It pointed to the top of this underground mountain and introduced at the same time:

"There are many tunnels we made on Flow Peak. You should pay attention to safety when going up there. If any of my compatriots say hello to you, well... you'd better not mention anything related to Lizard Dragon."

As soon as the words fell, Eyeless People, who had brought Linsey all the way here, left with his spear, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Linsey watched the other party leave. "Let me go by myself? Do you just trust me so much?"

Linsey shook his head slightly and took the initiative to walk towards the crystal mountain.

Bringing an outsider to the camp of his own species, and then letting him act alone so carelessly.

For this exaggerated decision, Linsey thought of two possibilities.

The first is that the other party has such customs, so they have this choice.

As for the second possibility...

"That's because I have confidence in my own strength, so I feel confident."

Linsey thought of his speculation just now.

The behavior of Eyeless People at this moment also greatly strengthens this possibility.

"Among Eyeless People's group, I'm afraid there are also strong men from Sixth Stage sitting in charge."

Having already come this far, Linsey had no intention of turning around and running away.

He opened the map and looked at Mountain Peak in front of him.

There are a large number of yellow neutral signs on it, and there are also some scattered green friendly signs, but there is no red symbolizing hostility.

"Then just go up and have a look."

Linsey made a decision and immediately stepped onto this underground Mountain Peak.

The crystal clear mountain looks very transparent, and its hard texture also feels like a rock. But after walking a short distance, Linsey smelled a salty smell in the air.

His eyes naturally fell on the surface of Mountain Peak below.

The peculiar terrain here was quite eye-catching, and coupled with the smell in the air, Linsey immediately had an idea, and at the same time he used his own Product Template to confirm it.

[Mineral: Rock Salt]

[Minerals that can be used to make salt are easily soluble in water. Because it bears different buoyancy than rocks, it has a certain degree of fluidity.]

[A more common mineral with lower value.]

"So... this is a mountain of salt?"

Linsey I knew about Rock Salt in my previous life, and even bought Himalayan rose salt to try.

"But it's just right."

Linsey randomly touched two pieces and stuffed them into his bag as a reserve of salt, and then continued to climb to the top of the hill.

Sure enough, he also met other Eyeless People on the way.

Some of them are digging holes in the salt mountains, while others are going about their daily routine. Everything Linsey saw revealed the sense of life in primitive society. Eyeless People seemed to regard this place as his home.

As for the Eyeless People I met on the road.

Through their keen vocal and receiving organs, they can also tell that Linsey is not of the same race.

But at most they only come up to ask a few questions.

Knowing that Linsey was going to meet the elders living on the top of the hill, they basically let him go without any obstruction on the way.

A quarter of an hour later, Linsey arrived at the top of the hill.

Underground World There is no wind or rain. The house where Eyeless People lives here is just a hole in the salt mountain.

The so-called elder's residence is just larger than other people's.

Only at the top of the hill is there a square, which may be used to hold citizens' meetings and other matters.

"Human, you are here."

A deep voice came from the pit in front.

Linsey Scanning the surroundings, there is only a large cave in front of you on the top of the hill. Only elders seem to be qualified to live here.

He stepped forward in response, but his mouth just opened before he could say anything.

The beings in the cave below seemed to be aware of Linsey's movements.

So the voice came out again. "Come in, there is no need to be formal here, we can have a good talk."

"..."

Linsey raised his eyebrows and walked in generously.

Just as he expected, sitting in the cave on the top of the salt mountain was an old Eyeless People.

But unlike his younger compatriots.

This old Eyeless People has many wrinkles on his skin, and there are some flame-like red lines all over it.

Just by comparing the shapes, you can understand the specialness of the individual in front of you.

This may be the Sixth Stage leader of Eyeless People.

Linsey made an inference in his mind and took the initiative to introduce himself:

"Hello, my name is Linsey."

"Everyone calls me Shazank." The elderly Eyeless People also introduced himself, "I am the elder of this ethnic group."

"Linsey, I heard everything you said on the way here."

"We have a common enemy. At this time, joining forces to fight against the enemy is the best option. Smart species like you should also understand."

Did you hear all the conversations on the road? Linsey had a stern expression.

The distance from where he fell to the top of the salt mountain was absolutely enormous.

Although Eyeless People has degraded his eyesight and strengthened his hearing, it is impossible to hear the conversation directly from such a distance.

There can only be one conclusion.

The old Eyeless People with fiery red skin in front of him has also awakened corresponding special abilities due to his leap in strength, and this superpower-like hearing is one of them!

Faced with such a strong person, Linsey also got straight to the point. "I understand the general situation, and I do have ideas to deal with these Lizard Dragon."

"But before I do that, I have a question."

Linsey is about to ask about something he cares about.

But before he could ask specific questions, the elderly Eyeless People in front of him spoke first, "I am indeed very powerful, but that place is equally dangerous to me. Under such circumstances, let alone letting other Devil Beast explore Crystal Valley on our behalf."

Linsey was in a daze for a moment.

The question he wants to ask is, 'Why don't you drive other Devil Beast, or go out and do it yourself? '

Who knew that Eyeless People in front of me could answer it first.

Being able to hear such distant conversations in advance.

At this moment, I can make reasonable inferences based on the content of the conversation, and even guess the questions I want to ask...

Linsey is a bit stressed.

The difficulty of communicating with a strong and intelligent being is self-evident.

Next he wanted to ask: 'Since Devil Beast and a strong person like you can't do it, why should I try? '

As a result, just as Linsey opened his mouth, Eyeless People interrupted again in advance:

"Because there are some traces in Crystal Valley, and I happen to know that they are your human writings."

This time Linsey's expression turned serious.

The first answer can also be explained as the other party has strong reasoning ability, but for the second question, the probability of success in continuing to guess is almost extremely small, and the other party has no reason to give such an accurate answer.

A dangerous idea came to mind like this:

"Are you reading my mind?"

Eyeless People Elder nodded magnanimously:

"That's right."
