The Eighth Section: Treasure Hunting in Bone Mountain

  Only to see hundreds of square meters of white bony ground covered with a layer of broken weapons and armor fragments, the workmanship and materials of which are all rare masterpieces, and many of them are magical fluctuations, obviously magic items, how much would they be worth! It's not just that magic weapons require high-level wizards to participate in addition to blacksmiths, but also that high-level wizards value their identity and rarely collaborate with blacksmiths. Moreover, making these things is time-consuming and costly, with a low success rate, resulting in extremely limited production. This has led to a sharp increase in the price of magic weapons and armor. Even the cheapest magic sword costs over 10,000 yuan. Judging from the scene before us, at least several hundred magic weapons have been destroyed, and there are more than 100 sets of armor, what a waste!

  "Everyone search, there might be complete ones or damaged but not too badly that can still be repaired, find them all out. Also, find the fragments of inlaid magic cores or magic crystals!" I commanded.

  I also joined the treasure hunt, relying on my keen sense of magical fluctuations to find places with intense fluctuations. First, I found a shield, only about half a foot in diameter, but it was extremely well-preserved. The surface of the shield had intricate patterns and many scratches that proved its battle-hardened history. Although the shield was an inch thick, it wasn't too heavy, probably because it was hollow inside to hold magic arrays and crystals. I estimated that it could block at least 5th-level magic attacks or below. Unfortunately, I didn't know much about its market value! After walking two more steps, I suddenly found a ring on a snow-white finger bone. When I picked it up and examined it carefully, it looked dull and unremarkable without any patterns or gemstone decorations, but it gave me a familiar feeling! Ah, I remembered that my mom had one just like this - a spatial ring! Oh, great! Although my Golden Lotus could store mountains of things, every time I took something out was a hassle, and it couldn't be exposed to light. With the spatial ring, it would be much more convenient! The surrounding area occasionally erupted in exclamations of surprise, looks like they had quite a few gains too!

  "Go back and tell your mother the situation here!" I ordered; "Everyone else doesn't have to search anymore, I see that the fragments here are many years old, very few of them are rusty, it can be seen that the materials are all top-notch, if they are re-melted, they can be recast into high-quality weapons."

  A leading spirit assigned a person to go back and said: "Right, the young master is right. I believe the dwarf friend will be very happy to receive these fragments."

  "Alright, everyone gather all these things on the flat ground below, sort them out by category, and when mom comes, we'll take them away together!" I said.

  "Yes! Young master! Everyone will do as you say!"

  In a short while, my mother brought more than 50 people and rushed over. She first covered her nose and sighed at the damaged things. After listening to my suggestion, she said: "That's right, son! You've done a great job, we can't leave any fragments behind. You guys sort them out first, I'll take my son to see how it's going on the other side." After that, she took me and ran away, no choice, it really stank too much.

  On the road, Mother saw the shield in my hand.

  "Son, let Mom see what you've found!" his mother said excitedly.

  "Here!" I handed her the shield.

  "Heavens, it's really the Flame Lion Shield!" Mother exclaimed after a close examination.

  "Is it very famous?" I asked

  "It was the masterpiece of Dwarf Master Skaro 500 years ago, with a black iron shield body, a dense silver hook magic array, and even an eighth-level upper-tier magical beast Flame Lion's magic core. It can defend against all spells below level seven, and fire-based attacks up to level nine! It's simply a nightmare for mages, and when warriors input their fighting energy into the shield, the shield surface will shoot out a 10-meter-long flame snake with a temperature so high that it can melt gold and iron, making it usable as a weapon. It went missing 200 years ago, and its last auction value was 2 million gold coins!" My mother excitedly told me about its origins.

  "How much is this thing worth?" I handed over the ring

  "Oh, Tian Na, the surprise you gave me today is more than all I've experienced in the past. This must be a spatial ring, but it needs to be activated with blood before it can be opened. Have you seen the text inside? That's the incantation for using it. Judging from its appearance, it should have an average capacity, about 10 cubic meters of space, far inferior to mom's! You quickly activate it and see what's inside!"

  "Good!" I hastily followed suit, dripping blood to acknowledge ownership and reciting the incantation as mom had taught me. The method felt almost identical to using Golden Lotus. A circular opening about a foot in diameter appeared before the ring, revealing a spherical space inside that was indeed around ten cubic meters in size. There were many things inside, including various alchemy tools and finished products. Two items caught my attention: a sword and a book. I quickly took them out.

  The sword was about one meter long and three fingers wide, a typical single-handed sword used by warriors. Its entire body shone with a faint, pale blue glow - undoubtedly a wind-elemental magic sword. I handed it to mom without hesitation. I lowered my head to study the book, only to discover that it was a notebook of alchemy notes. On the second page, I found the owner's name: Grindelwald* Dale.

  "Mom, who is Greenspan Dale?" I asked

  "Two hundred years ago, the greatest alchemist of the human race, he was skilled in making magical swords and summoning system magic tools, could this be his legacy?"

  "Perhaps, at least this notebook is his, and it's all about alchemy!"

  "That's it, this sword is also his work, and his name is on the hilt."

  "Is there anything special about this sword?"

  "Of course, as the master's final work, this sword is flawless in both commemoration and practicality, you know? It can actually release three types of magic, it's simply a miracle. The so-called magic swords we usually talk about are just adding magical elements to the sword, increasing its magical damage, I've never heard of a sword that can cast magic, let alone three!"

  "How did you know it could cast magic?"

  "I'm a magic guide, I can naturally distinguish the hidden magic array on the sword. Don't believe me? Look!" As she said that, her mother grasped the hilt and swung it, and a gust of wind blade flew out from the tip of the sword, its power not small at all.

  "This is the first magic, and the second one is Wind Shield." After finishing speaking, she swung her treasured sword again. A cyan light flashed on the sword, and a thin layer of cyan-colored magical shield appeared on her mother's body.

  "Finally, the acceleration technique won't be demonstrated to you. The magical energy in the gemstone on the hilt is almost depleted and needs to be recharged! When using it, use aura or magic to activate the three gemstones' stored magical energy to release the corresponding magic. What a brilliant idea! I must auction off this sword for a good price!"

  "No, mom, I've studied it first, you sell later, maybe I can replicate it based on his notes and objects!"

  "Right, create more, how could Mom forget a genius like you! I'll definitely sell your works for a good price!"

  Sweating profusely!

  After three hundred and two days of busy work, we finally got everything sorted out. It's clear that the elves handled the demon beasts with a very professional attitude. We got a total of 12 snake teeth, six demon cores, including light, dark, water, fire, wind, and the rarest poison system, 12 snake eyes, one venom sac, blood, skin, bones, and tendons. There were also eight intact weapons, five swords, two knives, and one gun, a Fire Lion shield, and although the armor was all broken, we collected some that might be repairable separately. With so many things packed, even Mother's spatial ring wasn't enough, so we had to put them on the Unicorn's back. Mother happily agreed to give each of the elves a section of bone and tendon as a reward, which they could process into a bow according to their preferences. The elven guards were extremely grateful for Mother's generosity. According to the rules of the elves, these ownerless things belonged to the discoverer, and they had only helped out casually but gained such great benefits, so they were naturally very happy.

  But in the following days, I always found my mother muttering to herself in the dead of night: "The material for one bow is worth 10,000 gold coins, 300 people have 300 bows, that's 30 million gold coins! Oh heavens, I gave away 30 million gold coins all at once! Ah, kill me!"

  I'm speechless and breaking out in cold sweat
