Chapter 659: Resuming the exploration!
The girls looked at the transparent glowing orb with curiosity. After all, this item could tempt Yasenia from very far away, even while being buried deep down the mountain.
Yasenia confirmed that the scent of the Natural Treasure was not the thing she first sniffed and that it came from this one.
When Yasenia stretched her hand and touched the orb, it glowed softly, slowly unraveling its contents, finally revealing what was inside as it landed on Yasenia's palm.
Angel blinked and asked, unsure. "A key?"
Kali nodded. "A golden key."
Evelyn further explained. "A golden key the size of a hand with inlaid gems."
Ebirah poked it and smiled. "It's very pretty."
Tatyana lifted an eyebrow, interested. "It is indeed some sort of key. The craftsmanship is delicate and thorough. Quality-wise, it should be similar to a Transcendence Level treasure."
The girls nodded, and Cecile asked. "What is it for?"
Nobody knew, so they were confused about what to do.
Yasenia spun it around, looking at it to see if it had anything written, but there was nothing. She observed the crystal room and asked. "Is there anything else in this room?"
Andrea shook her head. "I've been searching, and I found nothing."
Kali suggested. "Maybe there is another room. Should we search for it?"
They agreed, and after doing another detailed inspection of the empty room, they began circling the pillar and scanning the surroundings.
They took their time, and after eight hours of meticulous searching, they found nothing.
Yasenia sighed. "There are no extra hints, it seems."
Angel pouted. "So, we got nothing?"
Ebirah was grabbing Angel's hand as she said. "We gained a lot of Heaven-ranked ores!"
As Ebirah said, the previous room filled with high-quality ores, thanks to the Heaven-Born Earth Core, looked much emptier and less lustrous.
Andrea laughed happily. "We gained 20,000 cubic meters of various heaven-ranked minerals and almost 700,000 cubic meters of Earth-ranked ones. Then, our beast people have increased a level. Also, that Natural Treasure in your spatial ring is very nice. Even if we never discover what that key is for, we've gained a lot of valuable treasures. If we didn't have Yasenia's ring, our 10,000 cubic meter rings would've become stuffed with ores."
The others smiled, feeling nice about having the optimistic Andrea in the group.
Ebirah looked at what was left of the pillar and pulled Yasenia's skirt hem. "Yasenia, can I eat it?"
The dragoness chuckled and nodded. "Go ahead."
Ebirah transformed into her beast form and then began munching into the giant pillar. The solid rocks were like soft mud under the powerful mandibles of the Ore Lobster.
Cecile asked. "Won't the room collapse if she eats it?"
Yasenia tilted her head. "Does it matter? We'll leave as soon as she finishes eating, so even if it later collapses, it's not our problem."
After Ebirah ate her fill, about two times her body weight in her giant lobster form, the girls left the cave system.
Seeing the sky again, they took a deep breath. Andrea chuckled. "We've only been there a few hours, but it felt much longer."
Evelyn was riding on Yasenia's back, her little but softly resting on the root of her tail. "Where do we go next, Yasenia?"
Yasenia looked around and answered. "Hm, we should look around the mountain, just in case. If we find anything interesting, we take it. I doubt it, though... By the way, dear."
Evelyn. "Yes?"
Yasenia looked down at the two mischievous hands fondling her under her dress and sighed with a smile. "What are you doing?"
Evelyn answered with a serious face. "The air here is a bit chilly, so I'm warming up my hands with your Heavenly Breasts."
Ebirah asked, innocent and curious. "Why don't you do it with yours?"
Evelyn's lips twitched as she looked down at her aerodynamic chest and decided not to answer and comfort her hurt soul with the massive breasts in her hands.
Andrea coughed and answered for Evelyn. "Little Ebirah, Evelyn just wants to have some skinship with Yasenia. The chilly air is an excuse."
Ebirah nodded. "I see."
After that, they moved around the mountain and found nothing interesting besides a few spirit herbs and ores.
In total, they took about a day, and the following morning, they decided to leave the mountain. While resting, Yasenia always took time to speak with Kaleina. She was showering her little dear with love even if she couldn't be there.
Elder Fu frowned, annoyed. "This is the fifth time you spoke about that. Although I respect Lady Zephyrith as she will probably become the main wife of the Patriarch when she finally decides to give her pure body to him, right now, she isn't. So, we'll take the Patriarch's desires above hers."
A woman from the wolf clan snorted. "Lady Zephyrith is too arrogant. She has been making the Patriarch wait for over five hundred years. Isn't she ashamed to not even let him touch her?"
Another person laughed. "That's what made the Patriarch so obsessed with her. Besides, have you ever seen a more beautiful and powerful female wolf than her?"
An Ethereal Soul cultivator spoke. "Well, isn't that one from the Lizard's sect on a similar level? How was she called... Sierra?"
That woman who spoke frowned further. "She is just an Ethereal Soul level weakling."
Elder Fu ordered. "Enough. Prepare yourselves, they are close."
They all waited and prepared with his order while the wolf elder sneered. 'Did you really think I would let you leave with the treasures? Now that I've gathered twenty Epoch Core people, one-hundred-and-twenty Ethereal soul Realm cultivators, and our formation, you will fall into my claws.'
*************************************************************
Evelyn: I'm very curious about the effects of that bomb.
Kali: It was quite complex and fun to make. Yasenia's pheromones are very difficult to work with.
Yasenia: Are they?
Kali: Yes, love. If a normal pheromone can activate, for example, five nerves, yours can activate fifty.
Author: I summon you!
Aries Uy: Hello~.
Tatyana: Hello, little one. What's your question?
Aries Uy: Well... *Blushing* After I heard about the egg-lying, I couldn't help but wonder about how big they would be before they exited the body. Will the egg grow in size when it exits, or will it grow big enough for a baby to exit as an egg?
Aries Uy: Also, um, can Yas have two pregnancies at once since she can use her tail like a pocket pussy. Well, I'm not sure if she has a second uterus in her tail or just transfers everything to one uterus. Will the Yas' egg get so big that she is forced to stay in her dragon form?
Aries Uy: When I think about Yas carrying a giant egg in her belly in her human form, hahaha, something feels funny. Either way, I'm sure she could probably still kill people while preggy~.
Yasenia: I can feel the branches of your thoughts sprouting from here.
Aries Uy: *Blushing* Also, for the answer, can you summon the dragons? Like the forest dragon, Tian Long, the maids, etc.
Author: An interesting set of questions? Hahaha. Let's summon them, then.
*Puff*
Aries Uy: Wow, Tian Long is truly intimidating up close.
Tian Long: It has been a while since I came here.
Laurina: Hm? Oh! Little sister Yasenia!
Alaia: Young Miss!
Author: Hello, here is the problem.
*Explanation*
Tian Long: I'm honestly unsure about all those questions. But, from my experience, a dragon in human form can carry eggs. Unlike human women, when they are giving birth, their bodies become extremely elastic.
Laurina: Mom and Dad told me about how the eggs grow even after being laid, so in my race's case, we do both. Nurturing in the body and nurturing outside the body.
Alaia: As a beast-human dragon, I'm sure that I would not lay eggs unless I mate with a real dragon.
Laurina: *Blushing* Also, cough, I don't know about little sister Yasenia being able to have two pregnancies... Does her tail really...?
Aries Uy: Well, she can use it to mate.
Laurina: Oh my~.... *Whispering* So wonderful~.
Tian Long: Tatyana, your daughter is quite rare between dragons. Not many species can use their tail as a sexual organ.
Tatyana: She is my daughter. Of course, she is special.
Alaia: From what Dr. Ava, Anna, Eve, and Flora have deduced, young Miss should have a strange pregnancy. She will probably know what to do instinctively at that moment, but it will be interesting. Dr. Ava has told me to closely monitor and write down every second of it.
Aries Uy: I see. Thanks to all of you!
Author: And that's all for today's egg-lying Theater- Cough, I mean Celestial Theater!
