Wilderness, lakeside.

"You must swear in the name of the gods that you cannot harm me physically and mentally in any way, nor can you harbor ill will towards me. Otherwise, you will be lonely for the rest of your life, and no one will pay attention to you again. Thor looked at the lake and thought for a moment.

Sylvana pursed her lips, then repeated the oath as Thor had instructed.

Siffana had told Thor the secret she had told her earlier, and it wasn't complicated, according to her, there was a big gem buried in the mud at the bottom of the lake.

"Actually, if you draw a little bigger, I might be interested. Thor looked at the size of the gem between Sylvana's hands, which was close to the size of a human skull, and was obviously unconvinced.

"Maybe it's an exaggeration, but at least it's that big. Sevana thought for a moment, raised her little fist and shook it again.

She said she didn't know where it came from, but that the gem was there before she was born. After hearing this, Thor habitually doubted for a moment, he had always had a weak desire for money, but why not pick up such a thing as picking up money?

It's just that the key to the whole thing is not the size or value of the gems, but Thor is a little unconfident in himself, and he seems to be reluctant to dive to the bottom of the lake to dig for gems because he has just been a few days old and has the water nature of a three-legged cat.

And what he really worries about is that once he goes down to the bottom of the lake, everything is out of his control, and he wonders if Saffana is trying to trick him into using a story to trick him into harming himself, which is why Siffana swears.

She had repeatedly assured that the bottom of the lake wasn't too deep, and that there were no hosts or anything like that.

In the end, Thor no longer hesitated, took off his coat, and it was meaningless to use a long sword under the water, so he held the dagger in his hand and plunged into the lake.

The environment at the bottom of the lake is dark, and some shimmering aquatic plants are swaying far and near.

In addition to the dense aquatic plants, there were also a lot of garbage and debris, wild animal bones, swimming fish, and Thor even saw a soaked human corpse, whirling there with the undercurrent of the bottom of the lake.

Siffana had been following Thor to play the role of light, and Thor could hear her voice clearly in the water, as if it was ringing directly in his head.

Under her guidance, Thor soon came to the target area and began to dig.

The silt at the bottom of the lake was soft and not difficult to dig into, and soon there was a cloudiness around Thor.

Feeling that he was almost digging through the mud at the height of a man, and there was no sign of the gem, Thor said that he was going up for a breath, but Sylvana was still there chattering that it was almost there.

Suspicious, he dug two more times, and Thor actually found a hard object with irregular edges and corners in the mud. Without bothering to take a closer look, he hurried towards the lake like a frog in the water.

Back at the lake, Saul felt a little emotional, but he didn't expect that Sylvana really didn't lie, and he seemed to have inadvertently taken advantage of her.

It is a cone-bottomed, flat-topped, round emerald green gemstone, very pure, and the carefully cut and polished faceted facets reflect the brilliance in the light of Siffana, even with the layman's eye of Saul can see that it is absolutely valuable.

Sevana said that the gem was just a gem, and she didn't feel any elemental fluctuations from it. As for whether it has any historical background, Saul can't tell.

However, staring at the fist-sized gemstone in his hand, regardless of its value, it alone is enough to be called a delicate work of art.

"You don't look too happy?" Sevana looked at Saul's expression with some confusion.

"How can I not be happy with such a big one, it's just that I've always been more stable. ”

Thor replied casually, lost in thought, and only after a moment did he look up at Sylvana.

"This gem must be worth a lot, so let's take it and a half, and I'll see if there's any chance of making a move later." So tell me, what reward do you want? Or what do you want?"

Sevana looked happy, but in the end she just shook her head.

"I don't have to, after all, I can't enjoy your human things, I'm actually very happy, after all, this is the first time I've shared a secret with others. If you really ask me what I want, you can have more time to talk to me. ”

What a humble request, so humble that Thor couldn't bear it.

"By the way, it is said that there is a magic crystal that serves as both a valuable currency and a versatile magic material in the human world, will that thing be useful to you?"

“...... Perhaps. Sevana looked uncertain, she didn't even know what it was.

Thor arrives directly in town with the gem and visits Rianna's family for the second time.

The appearance of this gemstone immediately caused immediate shock to Rianna, who claimed that it was an extremely high-quality emerald, the best of all the gemstones she had ever seen. It doesn't even need to be processed, as long as it is slightly inlaid, it can become a great work of art that will be handed down to the world.

In the end, Thor only took two dragon's eye gems and four magic crystals in exchange for the other two dragon's eyes.

If this is converted to almost three hundred golden eagles, and if it is replaced by a copper shield, it will not be able to pull several carriages, which is enough to be called a huge fortune.

Walking out of Ruianna's mansion, Saul was a little emotional, as smart as Ruianna, I don't know what the eldest lady thought of herself, and she didn't ask about the source of the emerald from beginning to end.

You really trust me, and you're not afraid of getting into trouble, Saul smiled and shook his head. This did save him the trouble of making up stories, and if it wasn't necessary, the flag of the Brotherhood should not be put up again.

Back at the lake, Thor held the four magic crystals in his palm.

"Does it work?" asked Thor.

"There should be. Sylvana's little head leaned close to Thor's palm to feel it, then came to a conclusion.

As long as it works, Thor felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.

"How do you use it? You can't swallow it, can you?"

"Just throw it into the lake, and I can slowly absorb the magical elements contained on it. ”

"What happens if you absorb it?" Thor arched his eyebrows.

"I might be purer. Savana replied.

“...... Well, whatever you become in the future, even if you become a god in the future, remember your vows. ”

"Coward. Savana smiled and muttered,

"As long as you can live a little longer, what does it matter if you are timid. Thor didn't care about Sylvana's teasing.

Not far from Thor, in the grass across a line of vision, Shoggers was huddled and shivering.

He had always suspected that Thor was not normal, but he only suspected it, and today he finally had a real hammer.

Just now in the town, Shogus stumbled upon Thor's figure, and he quietly followed him to see what evil this guy was going to commit.

Sure enough, after seeing Thor enter Ruianna's mansion, Shuggus was saddened and indignant, this damn guy actually had a secret tryst with the eldest lady without it, and it was still in someone else's house.

When Thor came out of Rianna's house, he followed him all the way to the lake.

Just as Shogues was about to jump out and denounce Thor, he suddenly found that Thor was standing alone by the lake, talking to the air alone.

Shogues's grief and indignation instantly turned into horror.

The whole scene was so weird that Shogues wanted to turn around and run away quietly, but he felt a little unrighteous, and finally he mustered up the courage to stand up.

The moment he saw Shogues, Thor raised his hand with some joy.

He didn't have many friends worth sharing with so far, and Thor was originally going to give Shogues a dragon's eye directly.

But after thinking about it carefully, having a large amount of money at first glance may not be a good thing for a thief like Xiugues, so forget it, let's keep it and wait for this guy to support him when he has any urgent needs.

"You're ...... Who are you talking to?" said Shogues's expression was a little uncertain.

Thor turned his head to the side and spoke into the air.

"This is my friend, the same Schugs I told you, although he is a little lewd and, but on the whole he is still a good person. ”

Hughess blinked, suddenly came back to his senses, seemed to see through the truth in an instant, and expressed deep disdain for himself.

He finally realized that Thor should have found out about his stalking, this guy was now making up stories to scold himself, and he was still caught up in his own fantasy horror stories, which was really stupid.

Seeing Shogues' reaction, Thor suddenly realized something, and turned his head to the air and asked.

"He can't seem to see you?"

"Unless I want him to see it. Sylvana shrugged.

"Then you might as well show up and shake his dog's eyes, or he'll take me for a madman." Saul suggested.

You already are, Shogues glared at Thor with the eyes of an idiot.

"Damn it, I've never been so insulted in my life, keep making it up, keep scolding me with your crappy bad stories, my wisdom ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly covered his mouth in horror like a woman, and almost screamed.

In his line of sight, on Thor's side, where there was nothing before, a female phantom glowing with blue light suddenly appeared at some point.

If you don't pay attention to Sevana's gaze and tail, she's actually at the level of a long-haired beauty, well, at least that silhouette.

"Hello, I'm Sevana, the water elf. After a brief glance, Sylvana introduced herself with a smile and disappeared into the lake.

Shogues's mouth gradually grinned, the corners of his mouth twitched, and Thor looked at him with some concern, this guy won't be scared, right?

"Wait...... Wait a minute!" Shogues suddenly said, if it weren't for Thor quickly grabbing him, it is estimated that this guy would have plunged directly into the lake.

"Beautiful lady, I'm not like a jackal like Thor, I'm kind. Shogues shouted into the lake.

"It's useless for you to slander me, people are inherently different, and each other's personal charm is naturally not on the same level. Thor stood aside, shaking his head and silently sprinkling salt on Shogues.
