Human greed never disappears, even in dire straits, let alone for Sun Fei, which wasn't even a dire situation.
Almost instantly, the looting began.
The thought of these bones being used as weapons, their power comparable to divine weapons, made Sun Fei's eyes light up. Without hesitation, he began a frantic search. Soon, he had extracted hundreds of bone fragments resembling Bone Blade, bone spears, and Bone Sword from the mountain of bones, neatly arranging them on the ground. Now, Sun Fei's only problem was how to transport these treasures out. For the mountain of bones, this amount was just a drop in the ocean, but if it were taken to Chambord City, it could fully arm the entire nation's soldiers. With sufficient troops, the bones from this mountain of bones could arm a million-strong undead army!
Sun Fei had, of course, considered this possibility. Since this Underground Grotto Labyrinth City was indeed the God and Demon Ruins marked on the mysterious map, then these remains might belong to soldiers and generals of the gods and demons who died in battle years ago. However, there was something inexplicable about this. This place was clearly only a small part of the entire God and Demon Ruins, yet so many remains had been discovered. This didn't quite match Sun Fei's memories of the God and Demon Ruins and the great war between gods and demons in the ancient texts. According to royal records, even in their prehistoric heyday, the populations of the gods and demons were not abundant. It's absolutely impossible to deploy tens of thousands of people in a single battle. In most documented War of Gods and Demons, these two races at the top of the pyramid primarily acted as leaders, commanding various vassal races to fight. Legend has it that these vassal races were not particularly powerful warriors. In other words, these skeletons are likely the remains of those vassal races, which greatly shocked Sun Fei. Could it be that the average combat strength of the 'vassal races not considered powerful warriors' recorded in the ancient texts reached at least the level of a six- or seven -Star-Rank Warrior, and some powerful beings even far exceeded the strength of Star Class and Moon Class warriors?
This is absolutely incredible.
Such a force, if placed on the Azeroth Continent today, could almost sweep away all the major empires.
But now, they've become a pile of bones.
Having selected the bones that could be used as weapons, Sun Fei was finally a little tired. At least twenty hours had passed since he stepped through the black steel Teleport. He thought for a moment, canceled the Summon of the white giant wolf and Raven, selected a few small bones to put into his accessory space, and then opened a sky-blue Teleport, entering the Diablo World.
The sky was just beginning to brighten in the Diablo World.
Having found his way, Sun Fei first located Sister Akara in the southeast corner of the camp. Following the usual practice, he followed her to learn potion-making, herbalism, and the magical principles of scroll crafting. After upgrading his [Learning] divine skills, learning these things became effortless for Sun Fei. Akara Ankara only needed to give a rough explanation, and Sun Fei would grasp the key points as if he had already learned them. If it weren't for his careless and forgetful nature, he would probably already be a qualified potion-maker and scroll crafter.
"Granny, I have something strange here. Can you identify what it is?"
At the end of the study session, Sun Fei took out a bone from the Mountain of Bones that he had brought into the Diablo World from his sash space and handed it to Sister Akara. Sun Fei held a sliver of hope that Akara might be able to glean something from it.
"This is..." The nun took the skeleton with a look of astonishment and doubt, carefully examining it in her palm. After a moment of quiet contemplation, her expression suddenly changed drastically, and she exclaimed, "It's the Demon Remains? My God, Lord Sun Fei, how do you have something like this? Where did you find it? Do you have any more?"
" Demon Remains?" The sinister name gave Sun Fei a sudden bad feeling. He rarely saw Sister Akara with such a shocked expression, and asked, "Mother, are these things terrifying?"
Akara shook her head excitedly, saying, "The owner of the skeleton was indeed terrifying in life, an absolutely horrifying and evil being unacceptable to God and the light. However, the bones they left behind are extremely precious magical materials. The bone you gave me must have come from the body of a demon with exceptionally powerful strength in life. Its power far exceeds your imagination; even Andariel is not even one percent as strong. The bones left behind by demons of this level are extremely valuable magical materials. They can be used to forge powerful magical weapons, ground into bone powder, and also used to create magical scrolls and concoct potions..." At this point, the nun sighed with a hint of regret, "It's a pity there's only such a small piece; if only there were more!"
Sun Fei smiled smugly and took out a slightly larger piece of bone from the decorative space.
"You still have more?" The nun's eyes widened in disbelief.
Sun Fei then took out an even bigger piece.
"Besides?"
He took out another piece.
"Shout out all the numbers! Hurry, hurry, hurry!!"
As the spiritual leader who has guided the [ Rogue Encampment ] for nearly a century, Akara had never lost her composure like this before. However, at this moment, the nun was already showing signs of madness from Sun Fei's repeated teasing and seduction. Her withered hands grabbed Sun Fei and shook him desperately. This was because the ' Demon Remains ' were of great importance. If there were enough Demon Remains, then the power of [ Rogue Encampment ] could increase dramatically in a short period of time, and they would no longer have to worry about the troubles of the demon monster tides in the wild.
"That's all, that's all..." The ribbon space contained five or six pieces of bone from the Mountain of Bones, and now they had all been taken out. Sun Fei chuckled and spread his hands.
The nun's expression darkened slightly, a hint of disappointment in her eyes. However, she quickly regained her excitement at the five or six pieces of ' Demon Remains ' before her. She thought to herself that she had indeed been a bit greedy. God forgive her; having five or six pieces of such precious Demon Remains was already a tremendous fortune. How could she possibly desire more?
Sun Fei chuckled, about to tell Akara about the existence of the Mountain of Bones, when just then—
"Hahahaha... I've figured it out! I understand! Hahahaha..." The white-bearded old man Cain's signature maniacal laughter echoed throughout the Rogue Encampment. A figure approached Akara's tent. Cain, truly in a frenzied state, clutched several thin books in his hand. His old arms and legs moved with incredible speed. Upon arriving, he paused slightly, exclaiming, "Eh, Sun Fei, you're here too? Hahaha, wonderful! I've completely deciphered the differences between the magic systems of the Rogue Continent and the World of Light! Hahaha, I was absolutely right! These two magic systems are essentially the same thing! Hahahaha! Look, I've unlocked that storage ring; this is what I found inside!"
Sun Fei took the book from Uncle Cain and examined it closely; it was written in the language of the Azeroth Continent.
" Flames Burn the City? Undead Guidance? Earth Flame Explosion? Wings of Flame? Flame Tongue Binding?" Sun Fei glanced at the books and found that most of them were magic manuals, mainly fire-based, with some low-level undead magic manuals as well. It seemed that the wrongfully killed four-star wood-based mage Evans had indeed kept quite a few good things.
"There's still a lot inside the ring, take a look for yourself!" Grandpa Cain opened his palm and handed the ring, brimming with treasures, to Sun Fei without hesitation. Then, his gaze shifted and he saw the white skeleton in the nun's hand. He paused slightly, then seemed to remember something and recognized it as the ' Demon Remains.' His expression was one of shock. He snatched a piece and began to examine it closely. This old man was a complete Einstein- like scientific research fanatic.
Sun Fei took the storage ring and found that after being appraised and modified by Uncle Cain, its appearance had completely changed. It moved as nimbly as a swimming gecko, and it was very comfortable to wear on his finger. It did not affect the dexterity of his five fingers at all, and it could also protect his finger.
Consuming a negligible amount of magic power, Sun Fei finally saw the enormous space inside the ring, with a capacity of at least a hundred cubic meters. It was like a stone chamber, filled with various items, neatly categorized. There were about four or five hundred magic stones of all kinds, several uniquely designed magical equipment, as well as clothing, food, and other things. However, what attracted Sun Fei the most were the numerous books and Dou Qi arts manuals, piled up like small mountains in the corners. The number of these books far exceeded the number in the collection of the Chambord City royal family. Mages in the Azeroth Continent are known as ' Teleport library encyclopedias,' and it seems that this title is truly well-deserved. Although Evans was only a Four-Star Class mage, he was from a super empire and studied under a magical giant like Ferdinand. Naturally, the books he carried with him were extremely valuable and rare.
"Haha, this is truly a godsend! Chambord City lacks most right now are all sorts of Dou Qi and magical manuals, as well as the most basic principles of martial arts..." Sun Fei touched the gecko-shaped ring, his heart filled with joy. "This storage ring's storage capacity is a hundred times greater than the belt's space. With it, we can now facilitate large-scale exchanges of resources between the Diablo World and the real world!"
At this time, there weren't many people in the [ Rogue Encampment ]. After Sun Fei's three divine skills were upgraded with the completion rewards, he could now perform targeted Summon. By consuming a [ Scroll of Town Portal ] and setting a simple magic mark in [ City of Heroes ], he could Summon people from the Diablo World to [ City of Heroes ] even if he was in a different location. At this moment, the mercenary leader Kashya, the blacksmith Charsi, and some female Rogue were all sent to City of Heroes Sun Fei using targeted Summon to participate in the construction and protection of the Kingdom of Chambord.
Thinking of the mountain of bones in the God and Demon Ruins, and understanding its value, Sun Fei suppressed his elation. With a thought, he exited the Diablo World and activated the [ Summon ] divine skill, directly Summon the nun and the lewd old man to the mountain of bones in the mysterious and vast space.
"This is..." The nun was speechless with shock when she saw the mountain of bones before her.
"Hahahaha... How is this possible? Haha..." Even the lecherous old man Cain was so shocked by the scene before him that he was speechless, only managing a burst of incoherent laughter.
Finally, the two screamed simultaneously, exchanged a glance, and then, as if they were starving people seeing a roast suckling pig, they frantically pounced on the mountain of bones, practically drooling and rolling around on it. These two were far more knowledgeable and experienced than Sun Fei, understanding the value of such a mountain of bones far better. Akara's hands trembled as she greedily caressed each white bone, as if touching the hand of God, while the lecherous old man Cain directly bit and bit at the bones with his gap-toothed teeth... The two Old Man had completely gone mad.
