The dark green aurora sprinkled on the crystalline land, and the dagger-like peaks in the distance added a bit of fierceness. The occasional flash of mysterious creatures reminded people that this place was not completely lifeless, but was just hidden too deeply.
At this time, a figure was walking in front, holding the person behind him. The person behind him was holding a small spherical animal in his hand and was constantly exploring forward.
"Human, let go of your hand." The Queen of Eight Desires frowned and reminded.
Wu Jie made a shushing gesture: "Shh! Nyara, be quiet, there are several crystal beasts nearby."
The Queen of Eight Desires opened her mouth but said nothing else. This human had been holding her hand the whole way and had not explained why. Was he afraid that she would run away?
She had a lot on her mind. Ever since she met Wu Jie, this hateful guy had been guiding the main topic of conversation. She had never felt so aggrieved before, and she wanted to try to regain her sovereignty.
As the two continued to move forward, they soon saw several crystal beasts lying on the top of a cliff, squinting their eyes and taking a nap.
"Human, what do you want to do?" The Queen of Eight Desires noticed that Wu Jie was getting closer and closer to the small group of crystal beasts. It was obvious that this human had other purposes.
"Test." Wu Jie replied.
"Test?" The Queen of Eight Desires didn't understand what the test this human was talking about. She took a look and saw that there were not many crystal beasts in this small group, only four.
She glanced around and didn't see the gorilla crystal beast that had seriously injured her last time, which made her feel a little relieved. It seemed that there shouldn't be too many crystal beasts of that type in this world, and they were probably already at the top of the food chain.
At this moment, Wu Jie chose a suitable angle, concealed, and able to see the four crystal beasts clearly. A blue light flashed in his hand, and a sniper rifle appeared in his hand, with a long cylindrical barrel, which was a silencer.
The Queen of Eight Desires looked at this human with a puzzled expression. She wondered what he was tinkering with, and why he was so stealthy. She would just wait here and see what he did next.
Wu Jie aimed the sniper rifle and adjusted his breathing. This was his first time ambushing a crystal beast, and he didn't know whether the sniper rifle's power could completely eliminate a single crystal beast in one fell swoop.
Aiming at the crystal beast's head at the edge, Wu Jie took a deep breath, steadied the muzzle of the gun, and then pulled the trigger!
“Zi——!”
It was the sound of a nail-shaped bullet passing through the body. The crystal beast was hit directly by itself, its brain was blocked, and it died on the spot!
Hiss, what a powerful force! Wu Jie was slightly startled. He then immediately checked the energy panel and found that only one-thirtieth of it had been consumed. It was really amazing.
At this moment, a nearby crystal beast seemed to sense something was amiss. It slowly raised its head and opened its eyes. Because in this world, with neither wind nor air movement, it was like a pool of stagnant water, and any slight noise was piercing.
The sniper rifle is silent, so it naturally won't attract the attention of the crystal beast. However, the sound of being hit by a bullet is not necessarily the same. Although the sound is very small, it is too loud in this world.
But before the crystal beast that had just woken up had time to carefully check what had happened, a blue light spike hit its forehead directly, and another one was killed on the spot!
Then there were two more zizi sounds, and the remaining crystal beasts were all annihilated by Wu Jie.
A top-notch sniper rifle! Wu Jie could only describe it this way. This was simply a magic gun for killing people, stealing treasures, ambushing and stealing!
Just as Wu Jie was inwardly lamenting the power of the gun, Queen Bayu spoke up: "Compared to us Indians, you humans are no less cruel."
Wu Jie was not angry, but just smiled and said, "Same here." He was not angered by the provocation of the Queen of Eight Desires at all, and he was too lazy to explain why he wanted to kill these crystal beasts.
While he did intend to test these crystal beasts, he had no other choice. Wu Jie didn't want to kill them at random if he could help it. It was just that these crystal beasts were the same ones that had found their rift last night. They had deliberately ambushed them, waiting for Wu Jie and his group to show up. Wu Jie would show no mercy to his enemies.
Wu Jie then approached the crystal beasts, his weapon transforming into an incredibly sharp dagger. He walked up to a crystal beast and used the dagger to slice open its body. Despite its strength, the creature couldn't withstand Youyun's sharpness, and was easily slashed by Wu Jie like tofu.
Not long after, Wu Jie took out four round objects from the bodies of these crystal beasts. Wu Jie took these four round crystals and came to the Queen of Eight Desires.
"Nyara, try the resonance field on these crystal balls and see if you can absorb their energy." Wu Jie said to the Queen of Eight Desires.
The Queen of Eight Desires glanced at Wu Jie, but still obediently took the crystal balls and held them in her hands.
Then she closed her eyes and felt it carefully. Only a second later, the face of the Queen of Eight Desires was obviously filled with surprise!
"Human, what is this?!" The Queen of Eight Desires couldn't help but speak.
Wu Jie chuckled, "You didn't expect that, did you? The crystal beasts here have gathered all their energy within themselves. Do you know why you can't absorb any source nuclear energy here? Look at these crystals around you."
Following Wu Jie's words, Queen Eight Desires also looked at the surrounding crystal rocks and asked with a puzzled look, "Is there any difference?"
Wu Jie continued, "These crystal rocks are the crystallization of energy. This world has been absorbing the energy of the source core, which is why this world is so lifeless. Crystal beasts originated from these crystal rocks and are very special life forms. The crystal ball in your hand may be the essence of their energy."
"Of course, all of the above are just my personal guesses. I have to thank Ymir for teaching me so much about your world. Nyara, try to see if you can absorb the energy of this crystal ball."
The Queen of Eight Desires fell silent. She didn't expect that Wu Jie brought her here mainly for herself... Although everything Wu Jie said just now was just speculation, after listening to Wu Jie's speculation, she also felt that it was reasonable.
She did not refuse, because at the moment she needed to recover from her injuries as soon as possible, and any energy that could be absorbed was very important.
So she held the crystal ball in her hand and immediately activated the resonance field.
Then Wu Jie saw that the crystal ball in the hands of the Queen of Eight Desires began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.
