Chapter 1296 Side Story: Fairy Dragon VI

The rabbit beastman priestess told the trio the location of their former village. Kabrakan knew of it as it was called a certain name, but he did not expect that the name came from that. The name of that location is called the Fallen Moon Craters as a result of numerous moon rocks being hurled into that area.

The sadness or crying of the moon that the rabbit beastman priestess is telling is definitely a real event that took place a long time ago. Kabrakan only knew of the name, but he has yet to go there because the monsters there are described as weird. Even for the standard of the beastmean, the monsters at the Fallen Moon Craters are out of this world in their sense of normalcy.

"Let me just tell you expect something out of this world when you meet the beasts in that area. I have heard stories and I actually have seen one of the monsters there when they captured one." Kabrakan stated as he proceeded to show them the way.

The way to the Fallen Moon Craters is not that far from the current rabbit beastmen settlement. It took the three about two hours of walking to reach the designated area that they needed to go. They moved at a quick pace as it would take a normal player at least three hours to reach it.

"Why did you not just let us steal the Pure Moon Rock that they held?" Levin Cloud finally asked the question that has been plaguing his mind.

To him, it was just a decorative rock for the rabbit beastmen settlement, and they would not need it. Even Peridot would have jumped at the chance, but she has a keen eye when it comes to rocks and minerals which other players do not have. She has a passive skill called Mineralogy which gives her a detailed view of any precious stone that she sees.

"It is not that I feel bad to take that stone, but it does not serve my purpose. Let me show you what I saw when I viewed the stone." Peridot stated as she sent an image to the party chat.

"I see. No wonder you were not having it earlier. You were already thinking of a second way." Kabrakan stated as he knew that a depowered stone will not make Peridot evolve.

"That is right. Which is why… the both of you needs to start digging." Peridot commanded as she pointed at the spots.

The two did not complain as they started to dig at the spots that Peridot pointed at. She could pinpoint locations that have special ores because of her maxed-out Mineralogy skill. When she was at the gnome kingdom, she just spent all her days mining for stones for her job class. She even had the nickname 'The Unrelentless Digger Gnome' as she would mine for three days straight.

Each of them dug the soil in different ways as each of them are different races. Kabrakan used his purely physical body to dig up the soil using a shovel that Peridot gave him. He unknowingly got the Digging skill due to it, but he did not expect that his Earth Elemental Mastery would increase by digging soil. He suddenly started to get pumped up due to this as he became something akin to a rear actor.

Levin Cloud dug the earth like a Leshy would and that is to make the earth soft. He would then use the trees nearby to lift the thing that he is digging for using the roots. He did not sweat like Kabrakan but he did lose mana and needs immense concentration. He also started to gain small increases of mastery to his Nature Elemental Mastery by doing this action.

Peridot used spells as well, but she used her Create: Clay Soldier skill to literally dig the earth by making it animate. The clay soldier that she would create will then dig the earth with her which made her the quickest to dig the earth. She literally had about fifty clay soldiers in under ten minutes, and it is still steadily increasing.

Peridot's Mineralogy skill is not that busted because she is not able to know what kind of special ore or rock is being dug until she unearths it. All she knows is that there is a special mineral or rock in that location as even the tier list cannot be determined as all she sees is a sparkling light.

Just as the three were digging the strange monsters that Kabrakan is talking about started to show themselves. Strange is already a term which the Selvaggians should not be speaking since they are not normal by any standard. The strange monster that approached them is called the Pyon.

The Pyon is a hairy fuzzball monster that is only one foot in size. It has cute arms and legs paired with googly eyes that can put a puppy to shame. The reason why the Selvaggians call it strange is the fact that this small creature is extremely durable as it cannot be damaged greatly by either physical or magic attacks.

The Pyon also has no way to counterattack which is why it is an oddity to the Selvaggians on how it lives in a danger infested world. Nevertheless, the Pyon seem to keep their distance from the trio and went away when they were bored. Peridot wanted to cuddle one, but she resisted the urge as she has more pressing matters.

After two straight days of digging, the trio got a surprising number of precious stones and minerals. They even got some Pure Moon Rocks, but they were not of the millennium category. Seeing that Peridot could still see numerous reactions from below her feet despite unearthing a lot, she decided to use more brute force.

"Make the soil as soft as you can. Sand would be much appreciated." Peridot told Levin Cloud as he nodded.

Seeing that he needs greater power in doing this, Levin Cloud shifted to his true form and touched the ground below him. The soil that was filled with moisture and could sustain life suddenly turned barren and dry like sand. Levin Cloud sucked the life out of the soil below them which made it turn into sand.

When Levin Cloud turned the soil into sand, Peridot then continuously blasted it with gusts of wind which blew the sand to the other side. In no time, the whole area was dug up and the large hole that they created went up to ten meters in depth. Just as the twenty-one-meter depth has been achieved, a large boulder that is the shape of a sphere greeted them.

Peridot was getting a reaction from this spherical boulder. She touched the boulder and tried cracking it, but her mana was unable to penetrate its shell. The thing inside the boulder was radiating energy that protected the exterior shell. This something that cannot be broken by being half baked.

"Let me try." Levin Cloud stated as he was still in his true form.

With the power of twenty trees, Levin Cloud commanded them to strike the boulder simultaneously but not even a crack appeared. He commanded the trees to whack the boulder until a crack formed but it was the trees that got ruined in the process.

"Let me try. I am very good at destroying earth." Kabrakan stated as part of his passive ability is Earthshaker where his attacks create shockwaves on the earth.

Using his two shields, Kabrakan slammed it with all his might. He rammed at the boulder a couple of times, but no dent is seen. In fact, it was his shields that got damaged. He did not believe that a boulder is actually sturdier than his shield.

"I will try my hardest then." Peridot stated as she took out the Legendary tier Elemental Shards that they unearthed earlier. She bombarded the boulder with Elemental Apocalypse, but it only produced a small crack. It might be a small crack but that was hope for them because they eventually opened the boulder after one week of hard work. They were blasted with a powerful blinding light but it was worth it.
