The little beastman was not close enough to him to obey his command yet, but she listened to everything Xiuban said.
Lin Yun seized the opportunity to familiarize himself with the little beastman. He even gave her a name, Marianna. The 73rd God's name before the rebirth could not be used anymore. It was almost a taboo.
Now that the danger was gone, everybody resumed mining in the enclosed space. There were still a lot of lodes left. Many precious materials had been destroyed, but some were just shattered, and could still be used after being polished and regathered. There were a lot of resources that were buried deeper underground too.
All the survivors continued mining. Marianna removed the space blockage in the place, and Lin Yun was able to summon engineering puppets from his Demiplane, while the Chester Family summoned a lot of low-level beasts to help with mining. 𝒇𝔯𝗲𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝚗o𝚟𝗲𝑙 - 🅽🅽novel
Two hours passed quickly. All the rare materials left in the space had been dug up. They dug hundreds of meters deep in a radius of dozens of kilometers, and even found the smallest mithril ores. They almost filtered all the soil.
During the two months, Lin Yun and Marianna had become very close. At least, she had learned to come to Lin Yun instead of Xiuban when she was hungry.
Marianna, who wore a beast hide skirt and shirt, was waving a leg bone that was 1. 5 meters long, and chasing after the beasts that the Chester Family had summoned. All the beasts were paralyzed when they detected Marianna's aura.
Then, Marianna found it boring to kill the beasts that had been too scared to move. She then found Lin Yun to address the problem.
Then, Marianna learned from Lin Yun the spell to cover her aura...
As a beastman, she had learned a human spell, and used it more effectively than the mages who were adept at the spell could. After casting the spell, Marianna completely concealed her aura. She then pretended to be weak, and found the hardworking beasts in the mines, waiting for them to chase her. After that, she smashed the beasts' heads, and dragged their bodies to Lin Yun, who would roast them...
She didn't go to Xiuban, because even as a simple child, she could tell the delicious food from the bad one. After having Xiuban's roast meat once, Marianna was so picky that she didn't eat any more food he made.
The Chester Family's mages were truly unlucky. There was nothing edible in this desolate place at all. The beasts that the mages of the Chester Family summoned were the only source of meat.
Those beasts had all been tricked by Marianna. They weren't very clever at the beginning, but after a lot of them were killed, they seemed to have become a lot smarter, and would avoid anything that looked like Marianna. They would never approach her or give her an opportunity to attack.
After a level-39 beast was smashed by Marianna, people of the Chester Family couldn't help but complain about it to Lin Yun, but then nothing happened.
Marianna nearly killed one of their Heaven Rank beasts on the next day, which made the people of the Chester Family shut up. Only those who were stupid would reason with a reborn god. It was just a few beasts. More could always be summoned if they died. Summoning the low-level beasts wasn't a strenuous task anyway.
With the Wild Summoning bloodline of the Chester Family, it was possible to summon a swarm of low-level beasts at the same time. Also, they didn't have to contract the low-level beasts at all. Those beasts were simply summoned as cannon fodder.
Marianna had a good time. She was a lot nicer to the Chester Family too. At least, she didn't want to smash Danason's head after a few words with him.
The Chester Family was quite happy. After all, she was a living reborn god. Even though she seemed as innocent as a child, that was fine. As long as she didn't die by accident, her odds of igniting the God Fire would be greater than those of any mage.
Then, Danason, who lacked backbone, adulated Marianna by summoning a few delicious beasts once every couple of days, and sending them to her weapon casually...
"What a stupid human being..."
Enderfa floated in midair, and glanced at Danason, who was as cautious as a thief, in the distance while cursing.
Danason summoned a glacier bull that was more than five meters tall. Then, he infuriated the bull, and let it charge in Marianna's direction as it lost its rationality.
The little beastman was delighted to see another delicious-looking beast attack her. She bared her fangs like Xiuban did, and then roared and charged at the bull.
A thick bone that was 1. 5 meters long hit the bull in the head brutally, and smashed its head instantly. Then, Marianna, who was 1. 5 meters tall, dragged the bull that was five meters tall and nine meters long with one hand, and threw it to Lin Yun.
"Uncle Merlin, Uncle Merlin, I've hunted another creature. It looks quite delicious..."
Lin Yun's eyes twitched. He felt that his heart was racing every time Marianna called him.
Once born, the 73rd God would probably be stronger than all the other gods, even though the half-developed soul of the 73rd God had split up into the famous Raging Flame Emperor and the Abyssal Overlord.
This kid, who technically only had one-fourth of the god's soul, was reborn from half of the Abyssal Overlord's soul. Every time Marianna called him uncle, Lin Yun felt that whenever that terrifying guy awakened his consciousness, the second thing he would do would be to kill him...
The very first person he would kill was certainly Xiuban.
Still, it was very unlikely for Marianna to regain her consciousness before the rebirth...
Lin Yun summoned three frost element sprites, and asked them to process the bull. He then summoned four fire elementals, and roasted the bull that weighed thousands of kilograms. He pushed the seasonings into the meat with mana, and finished the processing with the purest mana. Then, he watched Marianna eat up those thousands of kilograms of meat without leaving any.
Nothing was left at all, not even the smallest bone. In terms of not wasting food, she was so much better than Xiuban.
After Marianna was full, she patted her belly, and patrolled the land again while holding the bone stick that was even longer than herself.
The space blockage had been removed, but in order to leave this place, they had to pass through the gray mist in the periphery. With Marianna here, there was no need to worry about the trip.
Marianna walked to the wall of gray mist, and the wall voluntarily split up. There wasn't the slightest hint of gray mist within 30 meters of Marianna.
When they entered the depths of the mist, everybody followed Marianna inside the huge hemisphere that was 30 meters in diameter. They walked out of the gray mist after a dozen minutes, and reached where they entered the relics.
Hardly had they walked out of the relics when a drake that had four wings screamed, and fell in front of everybody.
Holding the bone stick, Marianna gazed at the drake that was not fully dead yet, and kept mumbling...
"Uncle Merlin didn't lie to me. There's indeed a lot of food in the outside world. This thing looks delicious..."
The poor drake wasn't killed by the Blood Elves, and yet its head had been broken by the little beastman who was only one meter tall...
Every time Marianna waved the stick and smashed a head, Xiuban grinned. According to the great Lord Xiuban, the enemy's head had to be smashed in order to ensure that they were dead. Marianna had certainly carried out his instruction.
Enderfa floated around Lin Yun, with fright on his three faces.
"Damn it. Is Marianna's bone stick some sort of extraordinary weapon that can break any head? Why can it break the head of a level-20 beast and a level-38 one?"
Lin Yun was puzzled about Marianna's strength too...
She seemed to be a natural-born extraordinary creature that was no stronger than level 20. However, she had killed her every enemy with one attack, including Dalton who was level-5 in the Heaven Rank and the beasts that were below level 20.
Even though she seemed to be no stronger than level 30, nobody dared to underestimate her after her remarkable feat. Even Danason had to play along with her.
Lin Yun, on the other hand, had a speculation that he believed was true: Marianna had already inherited Xiuban's current bloodline.
Having gone through the extraordinary evolution, Xiuban's bloodlines had been melted into his unique bloodline, which Marianna had inherited. The feature of the bloodline was its enormous strength. Adding the energy inside the egg, her strength was completely unbelievable.
After smashing the drake's head, Marianna dragged its body to Lin Yun as usual. Then, she grinned and waited for Lin Yun.
Lin Yun's eyes twitched. He ignored Marianna, and looked up at the sky, where a dozen Blood Elves were riding strange birds towards them while shooting a storm of arrows.
Lin Yun kept Marianna behind him. Before he did anything, Levis and Danason, two level-5 Heaven Rank experts, had shamelessly taken action.
The Blood Elves were no stronger than level 39. Did they need two level-5 Heaven Rank experts to take care of?
The experts of the Chester Family and the Storm Tower seemed about to take action too. Lin Yun couldn't bear watching their shamelessness any longer.
Damn it, could those people be more shameless? They are just a dozen Blood Elves who are no stronger than level 39. Did they need so many Heaven Rank experts to take care of?
Those bastards have truly given up everything, including the dignity of Heaven Rank experts, just to make him appreciate them...
Lin Yun didn't need to do anything anymore. In only half a minute, all the dozen Blood Elves had been squished. Even their bone pieces couldn't be seen anymore.
Marianna looked at the spraying pieces of the Blood Elves, slightly confused. She seemed to be remembering something.
"Uncle Merlin, they looked very familiar to me. So familiar..."
Marianna extended her hand and waved. Instantly, beads of blood arose from the Blood Elves' broken bodies. Those beads of blood were made of highly condensed power of blood. Then, they were joined into a ball, which was ablaze with bloody flames. In the end, the ball of blood was burnt until it was only the size of a millet.
Marianna picked up the bloody grain, and it immediately melted into her body.
Seeing that, Lin Yun was greatly shocked. He suddenly wondered if the Blood Elves were related to the 73rd God too.
Before Lin Yun considered the possibility, Marianna had furrowed her brows, and grasped at the air, as if she was trying to pull something over.
At the same time, in the capital of the Blood Elves, the strong pure-blood dragons were confronting the king of the Blood Elves when dazzling brilliance burst out in the city.
A pool that seemed to be filled with blood flew up from the capital. The blood inside the pool was continuously leaking out, and filling the capital with the power of blood.
The king of the Blood Elves gazed at the pool that was overflowing with blood, shocked. He ignored the pure-blood dragons, and flew away without delay. He unleashed the power of blood. Countless tattoos covered his skin.
The pure-blood dragons were shocked at the accident too. However, seeing the expression of the Blood Elves' king, they knew that he didn't summon the Void Blood Pool, the Blood Elves' ultimate treasure.
So, the three pure-blood dragons stopped the Blood Elves' king without thinking.
The three level-49 pure-blood dragons were fighting the Blood Elves' king, who was twice as strong in the capital. Although the Blood Elves' king was stronger, it remained unknown whether he could beat three level-49 pure-blood dragons.
The dragons could stall him for half an hour, not to mention a few minutes.
The Blood Elves' king roared with bloodshot eyes. The Void Blood Pool flew faster and faster after it left the capital. Inside the capital, many strong Blood Elves roared and chased after the Void Blood Pool.
However, they could only watch the Void Blood Pool turning into a shadow, and disappearing into nothingness.
A dozen seconds later, far away at the entrance of the relics, ripples appeared in the air, and a pool that was filled with blood flew out of the void. Blood was overflowing from the pool, but none of it dripped.
There was no telling where the overflowing blood went, or how the pool was filled. The terrifying power of blood immediately filled the environment.
"Damn it, the Void Blood Pool!" Lin Yun exclaimed in shock. Then, he saw that the Void Blood Pool turned into a shadow, and disappeared into Marianna's hand as an exquisite pool the size of a palm. No blood seemed to be flowing out.
Marianna wiped her sweat and grinned.
"This is it. I think it belongs to me. Some idiots didn't want to give it back to me. I'm so exhausted. Uncle Merlin, I'm hungry..."
She played with the Void Blood Pool for a moment. Then, the Void Blood Pool was attached to Marianna's left hand as a bloody tattoo. The suffocating power of blood was instantly gone.
Lin Yun became pale, and Danason and Levis were frightened too.
That was the Void Blood Pool...
It was the Blood Elves' ultimate magic tool that was the foundation of all their cities' defenses. It was also the power source of all the cities and most Blood Elves.
Yet, it had been directly summoned to this place by Marianna, obviously from the capital of the Blood Elves.
Every Blood Elf that wasn't dead should know what happened to the Void Blood Pool. Summoning it away was like stealing food from the mouth of a bunch of horrifying pure-blood dragons...
The Blood Elves would certainly go crazy.
"Let's go. Damn it, let's get out of here immediately. Marianna, remember never to summon it again. Just keep it in its current appearance. Are we clear?"
Upset, Marianna immediately summoned the Void Blood Pool.
"Why, Uncle Merlin? It looks like a lot of fun. Also, I think it belongs to me..."
Immediately, everybody put on an awful expression. They could totally imagine that the infuriated king of Blood Elves was already tracking down the Void Blood Pool...
"10 roast pigs with honey!" Lin Yun immediately made an offer. Before Marianna reacted, he increased the offer."If you are obedient, you will also get 10 roast bulls that I personally cook!"
Immediately, Marianna grimaced. She put the Void Blood Pool that she had a lot of fun with back to her hand without thinking.
For a moment, Lin Yun felt that his back was wet with cold sweat.
He summoned his magic battleships. Everybody boarded the magic battleships, and left as quickly as possible.
A few minutes later, a group of Blood Elves who were covered in blood jumped out of the void, and looked around scarily. Very soon, they discovered the traces near the relics, and broke into the relics by force...
