Chapter 336:
"What do you think?" Krus smiled as he stood up. "Otherwise, how would I be here? You know, I haven't breathed warm air in one hundred and fifty years, and everything has changed. You were still young back then; I didn't expect that after just over a hundred years, you would be as old as I am."
"Uh, not that..." Jann awkwardly touched his own snow-white beard, which was the same as Krus's. He turned to Freya excitedly.
"Lady Freya, I have identified the composition of this item. It is a precious crystal left behind by a Hell Creature after its death, formed from a high concentration of Death Qi and resentment."
"Is that so?" Freya revealed an understanding expression upon receiving the results. She had already guessed the formation of this item when she killed the Black-Robed Beings, so it was not surprising.
Freya thought for a moment and then asked, "Since it is a precious crystal, what is its function?"
At the mention of its function, Jann's eyes brightened slightly as he explained.
"This crystal is extremely rare; it is one of the few crystallizations belonging to magical beings from Hell after their death. Its inherent function allows it to be made into cursed items or weapons. The curse is determined by the abilities of the being that left behind the crystal. In addition to crafting items, it can also be used as summon material for the Shadow System. Through a special sacrificial Rune Array, one can summon powerful entities from the Hell World and gain a chance for trade, which is quite rare in most markets."
"Hmm? It can create cursed items?" Upon hearing this function, Freya frowned.
When she fought against the Black-Robed Beings, she indeed suffered from severe weakening and aging effects. However, at that time, it was merely a negative effect caused by pure Death Qi. It couldn't even be considered a curse.
'Could it be that those guys still have some hidden cards they haven't used? Or perhaps Jann's curse is related to the hellish curse on me? If that's the case, then it truly is a terrifying curse.'
Thinking of this, she gently folded her arms because beneath her sleeves were countless dark eyes.
However, she then quietly turned her head to glance at Krus beside her. In their previous conversation's probing, she had already confirmed that this person was the wizard who first entered the Hell World through the Stellar Tower and was tainted by hellish corruption. Yet he stood here strangely.
There must be a secret to the power of pollution control within the Stellar Tower.
"I didn't expect it to be such a precious item. Thank you for your identification," Freya smiled as she turned around, taking out a Black Box from her waist and handing it to Jann. "This is my reward for you, please accept it. I assure you will be satisfied."
"Oh? Then I won't be polite," Jann smiled as he received the box and gently opened it. Inside were a row of purple seeds, each the size of a grain of rice, numbering in the dozens.
Upon seeing these seeds, Jann was momentarily stunned, then became excited.
"I never expected to see this in my lifetime!"
"I'm glad you're happy," Freya said with a calm smile, watching the excitement of the Old Wizard. "By the way, I have some things I would like to ask you and Lord Krus."
Just as she was about to express what she wanted to say, a sudden bright light flashed at her chest.
"Hmm?" Feeling the wave coming from her chest, Freya's azure pupils flickered slightly, and then she raised her head. "I'm sorry. I may need to leave early; there are some matters I need to attend to."
"That's truly unfortunate," Jann said as he put away the Black Box and handed over a piece of adhesive material with regret. "I originally wanted to discuss some ideas about Plant Energy with you; it seems we'll have to wait until next time."
"Heh heh, there will be plenty of opportunities," Freya replied as she took the item and casually placed it in her waist pouch, her tone slightly urgent. "Then see you next time, and also Lord Krus."
"Alright," Krus nodded from the side.
After exchanging pleasantries, Freya quickly walked back to where she had come from and reached out her hand.
With a 'whoosh', the wooden door that had been concealed by unknown magic suddenly appeared, and Freya grasped the doorknob just in time.
She gently pulled on the wooden door, revealing the outside of the tower.
Without hesitation, Freya stepped forward.
The wooden door closed automatically behind her.
Standing in the garden, Jann looked at Freya's departing figure with some confusion and then turned to Krus with a puzzled tone.
"She actually saw through my invisible door? How did she do that?"
...
Stepping out of the tower, Freya took out the Castle Emblem from her chest, her expression slightly somber.
At that moment, a faint Red Light was flashing on it, indicating that someone had accepted the mission she had posted earlier.
Calming her mind, Freya gently tapped the center of the badge and connected her mental tendrils to it.
Soon, a slightly hoarse male voice directly reached her mind from the badge.
"Hello, Goat Sister. I have confirmed the location of the Spring of Life. When do you plan to make the trade?"
Although she had been prepared for this, Freya still felt a slight tremor in her heart upon hearing the news. However, she quickly suppressed her emotions and replied coldly.
"How can you prove the accuracy of this information about the Spring of Life? I need evidence to verify it. If you're lying, you should think about the consequences first."
"Of course. Please wait a moment; I will send you the relevant images right away."
The voice gradually faded away, and then a fragmented image was transmitted directly into Freya's mind.
The scene depicts a lush green forest, filled with tranquility and peace. Some white deer occasionally dart through the woods, leaving behind trails of soft white light.
As the deer run through the forest, a faint sound of water soon reaches Freya's ears.
Suddenly, deep within the forest, a massive ancient tree with a diameter of ten meters stands in ruins.
The ancient tree appears to have been struck by lightning, leaving only a broken stump. However, slender green branches and leaves still grow around the stump, showcasing its resilient vitality.
These branches sway gently, and at the center of the stump lies a green puddle, with droplets of water rising like a fountain.
Even from a distance, Freya seems to sense the powerful life force contained within the green liquid.
"Is this the remains of the Tree of Life?" she murmurs softly to herself.
"You have seen it; this is an image directly extracted from my memory, guaranteed to be real." (To be continued)
