Chapter 328 Chapter 328: Krome Underground (2)

"It seems like this resource point is not as simple as it seems" Rezen muttered to himself. Since this place is 'special' although it possesses its own dangers, it should probably also possess great fortune

There might be hidden dangers but at the very least, they are manageable. This resource point has already been explored by the Senior Mages of the Tryst Academy. Most of the dangers in the areas that someone like Rezen can explore were already swept through by them. At the very least, unless Rezen came to the area where the 'secret' of this resource point is located, the danger level should be at the manageable level but that is still too far from him

Even Senior Mages were not able to discover the peculiarity of this resource point and obtain the fortune it has, what more for a pitifully weak mage like Rezen?

Rezen threw this matter temporarily at the back of his head as he swept through most of the contaminated stones in this area. As soon as the contaminated stones were revealed, he would immediately place them inside his farm and these stones melted like butter, the energy they contained served as nourishment for the farm

Of course, the energy these stones contain is inferior to the energy that normal low-level mana stones have but they make up for their number!

Even Rezen cannot simply earn hundreds of mana stones in just a few minutes. His savings are not even close to tens of thousands of mana stones. Hence, the contaminated stones were really a huge windfall for him!

Of course, although Rezen harvested most of the contaminated stones, he didn't dare take all of them. If all the areas that Rezen went to suddenly became devoid of the normally abundant contaminated stones, wouldn't that be suspicious?

Even if the academy itself won't investigate, wouldn't the other people exploring this resource point be different?

As such, Rezen made sure to leave some contaminated stones behind as a decoy. In any case, no one is harvesting the contaminated stones in Krome Underground, there is surely a lot of them to be discovered. Rezen doesn't have to be a cheapskate and not let go of a few dozen mana stones

"Hmm? Contaminated Spiders again? Their number is really a lot!" Rezen said to himself as he stopped removing the ordinary rocks from the contaminated stones

At this point, he was not surprised to see contaminated spiders anymore. He basically met them everywhere inside the Krome Underground. Even if he killed all of them in a single area before harvesting the contaminated stones, it was not rare for the other spiders to arrive before he could finish harvesting

Rezen is already very familiar with these spiders and has killed hundreds of them in just a few hours already. It was fortunate that in this world, the law that species that can easily reproduce often have weak power individually is almost absolute

"Huh? Did I underestimate myself too much?" Rezen said to himself, feeling stunned. Although he knew that he had grown stronger, he didn't expect it to be this strong

To think that he almost killed all of these spiders just by using a single spell. In truth, this shouldn't be too much of a surprise

There was a dividing line between low-level Junior lifeforms and mid-level Junior lifeforms. Not to mention, Rezen's attack was not as simple as converting his mana into the power of sunlight to create a heat wave

His attack mobilized the power of a magic circle that increased the power of this heat wave by a large margin. Hence, this feat was made possible

"I refrained from using sun-type magic previously but unfortunately, I only have sun-type magic spells. If I encounter a large number of enemies or a powerful one, I still need to rely on this attribute" Rezen scrunched his nose due to the scent that wafted in the air

This is an enclosed space and air cannot easily circulate. As such, the scent of hundreds of burnt corpses was very strong

As a result, Rezen waved his magic wand to kill the remaining contaminated spiders before having the farm absorb their bodies. After that, he waved his wand again to create gusts of wind that carried the pungent smell away

Just like usual, Rezen mines the contaminated stones after killing all the contaminated spiders while thinking to himself. "I should learn magic spells of different attributes"

Rezen doesn't want to be confined by a single attribute as there are surely situations and places where using sun-type magic is disadvantageous. Of course, in the meantime, he would prioritize sun-type magic as this is the attribute he is the most talented at, currently

When most of the contaminated stones were mined, Rezen continued deeper into the Krome Underground and he chose a random form in the road

The entire Krome Underground is filled with countless tunnels and each tunnel will go to different areas. Unless there was a specific treasure to be found that Ivy could sense, Rezen could only blindly choose one path after another

Fortunately, he also has the map from the academy and he doesn't need to be afraid of being lost. If not, with how large and extensive this resource point is, who knows when will he be able to return above ground

"Hmm? The visibility is way lower here now. It's almost pitch-black" Rezen commented but he was not worried

Unless a region is special, there are a lot of Spirit Plants, resources, and techniques that mages can use to see in the dark. It was not a big deal. Rezen already ate Spirit Plants to improve his vision in the dark and it doesn't affect him much

However, while the low visibility doesn't affect him, Rezen suddenly stops in his tracks. His body trembled, his face contorted in pain before he sense of nausea engulfed his senses

In the end, Rezen suddenly belched out a mouthful of black blood and he instantly felt dizzy. It was only his strong will that enabled him to still be conscious
