Chapter 256 The Disappearing Crystal Core Fragments
A few minutes later, under the joint attack of everyone, the man in white robe disappeared in front of everyone with a strong sense of unwillingness.
"Huh!" Xingren breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground with dignity.
"Why is it gone?"
"That makes no sense. Just now, when the white-robed man's body exploded, the fragments of the light-type mutant's crystal core must have landed somewhere around here..."
Nan Chi stood where he was, looking indifferently at Tang En and the others who were searching as if they were digging deep underground.
"Why is it gone? Nan Chi, didn't you say that this white robe contained fragments of a light-type mutant's essence?"
After searching the underground palace several times and failing to find any trace of the light-type energy crystal core fragments, Tang En finally pointed the finger at Nan Chi.
Nan Chi shrugged. "I was just listening to the old village chief. How would I know? Besides, I've never seen the essence of a person with such mysterious abilities..."
Everyone was stunned by Nan Chi's words.
Who was it just now who said with such certainty that there were fragments of the essence of a light-type mutant on the white robe?
Now, listen! What is he saying?
Don't know about that? That's a pretty lame excuse, isn't it?
"Nan Chi, you must give us a satisfactory explanation." Wu Yuelian was the first to jump out.
As a princess of a country, if she still hasn't realized that she has been fooled, then her role as a princess is in vain!
"What do you mean?" Zong Lie stepped forward and stood in front of Nan Chi.
"Zong Lie, you are not a fool. Isn't what the princess said very clear?" Tang En said coldly.
Nan Chi sneered, "I worked so hard for so long, using both my own strength and resources to kill this guy, and now you guys are asking me for the spoils?"
Nian Shiyuan stood silently by the side. The scene just now was too chaotic. When the white-robed man exploded, anything could happen.
Wu Yuelian suspected Nan Chi first. Is there any misunderstanding?
"Besides, if the item is missing, I'll also suffer a loss. I have the right to suspect that one of you took the sperm nucleus fragment."
Nan Chi's pair of black eyes swept across everyone present sharply.
After Nan Chi finished speaking, the scene fell into silence for a while.
Indeed, Wu Yuelian only suspected that Nan Chi had taken the thing away, but she had no evidence at all.
But what if Nan Chi really didn’t take it?
Did they just miss the real mastermind in vain?
It also offends ancient studies!
"Now we have only the most brutal method... Before everyone leaves the underground palace, check each other's space buttons!
I have a card that reacts to light energy. If there really is a sperm nucleus fragment in someone's body, it will be scanned out quickly..."
Nian Shiyuan hesitated for a moment and then spoke.
"I'm fine!" Nan Chi was the first to respond and threw the space buckle on his body to the ground.
However, the people from Taichu Island, led by Wu Yuelian, hesitated.
"Sister Wu, do you have something to hide?" Nan Chi turned his head and smiled slightly.
Wu Yuelian looked at Nan Chi deeply, took a deep breath, and suppressed the violent emotions that were about to get out of control in her heart.
When Nan Chi threw the space deduction to the ground, she knew she had lost. At least it could be confirmed that the sperm nucleus fragments were not on the boy.
As for who it belonged to, Wu Yuelian couldn't confirm it immediately.
Nian Shiyuan also calmly threw the space buckle on his body to the ground.
Although Xingren looked disapproving, since the eldest brother had already thrown it away, he had no choice but to hold his nose and throw his three space buckles up as well.
"Very good, now I will use the power of the cards to start scanning you." At this time, Nian Shiyuan was holding a blue card in his hand.
With a wave of his hand, the cards flew up, and the first one appeared above his head.
After a few seconds, the card moved away abnormally without any task and appeared on Almond's head.
"This blue card will emit red light if it senses light energy." Nian Shiyuan said lightly.
Nan Chi was amazed. This Ka Xiu really had all sorts of weird and wonderful cards...
The cards passed over the heads of Zong Lie and Nan Chi in turn, without any abnormality.
When it was Wu Yuelian's turn, the card turned red.
"What's going on?" Xingren shouted, with a gloating and gossipy smile in his eyes.
Nan Chi pursed her lips, she inexplicably felt like laughing.
"The color of the card turns red, I think it's because of this." Wu Yuelian gracefully pulled out a rope from her neck, and it turned out to be an exquisitely crafted crystal pendant!
"What's going on? Don't tell me this broken pendant of yours is the crystal core fragment of a light-type mutant?"
Xingren stared at the pendant in Wu Yuelian's hand with a look of disgust on her face.
She sarcastically said, "I never thought that the Sixth Princess of the Empire would wear such cheap jewelry."
"This is something passed down from my great-grandfather. Although it's cheap, it has special meaning." Wu Yuelian didn't take Xingren's words to heart at all. She controlled her mental power to make the pendant float beside her.
The blue card fell on her head again, and this time, the color of the card was normal.
“…”
Nan Chi looked at the crystal next to Wu Yuelian in surprise. Why did the human race have the essence core fragments of a light-type mutant in their hands?
Was it forcibly obtained by killing human mutants, or was it a trophy obtained by eliminating alien races?
Nian Shiyuan looked at the pendant thoughtfully, and Zong Lie also stared at the pendant. Nan Chi was a little suspicious whether these two people knew what this thing was, or even knew its purpose.
Although the people present were very curious about the pendant, after seeing Wu Yuelian's expression, they kept silent.
The Sixth Princess obviously didn't want the secret of the pendant to be exposed.
After searching behind the body, it was time to deduct the space on the ground.
"Just in case, Princess, please don't search me personally. Do I have any other space buckles on me?"
Nan Chi relaxed his expression, stretched out his body, and spoke to Wu Yuelian very generously.
"...No need. Actually, I also believe in Junior Brother Nanchi." Finally, the smile on Wu Yuelian's face could no longer be suppressed.
Then, Zong Lie, Nian Shiyuan, and Wu Yuelian checked each other's space on the open ground, and then retreated silently.
"Nine people's space buckles don't have any essence core fragments." Wu Yuelian frowned, showing that she was very confused.
Nan Chi walked up slowly and took out his own from a pile of space buckles, then looked at the staff inserted on the platform.
"Everyone, since the essence fragments can't be found for the time being, should we deal with the problem at hand now?"
After Nan Chi reminded them, everyone suddenly remembered that there was another treasure at the scene.
"I finally saw the real staff. This power is so pure."
Tang En was the first to rush up to the platform, almost sticking his entire body to the staff that was more than one meter high.
"Let's put aside the disappearance of the sperm nucleus fragments for now. If I find out who secretly took them, my Imperial Star Alliance will be the first one to not let him go!"
Wu Yuelian's face was frosty, and her cold gaze swept across everyone present.
