Chapter 8: The Mysterious Scarlet Stone

Looking up at the red-haired boy with the crossbow on his shoulder, and the bright sunlight pouring down from the boy's head near noon, the boy's figure looked like a professional and experienced warrior.

Bill had a trance--this is the half-magician, Master Xiuin?

"Then Young Master Ben will go and exterminate the last demon wolf, two uncles, you can rest here!"

Xiu Yin found that he was full of confidence when he spoke at the moment, and the "crosshair" brought by the silver pupil undoubtedly made Xiu Yin full of confidence that he could "live better" in his future in the new world.

Touching the cold sensation brought by the crossbow, Xiu Yin walked towards the mine, thinking with some excitement in his heart, "This time, old Neumann will definitely look at me differently!"

Xiu Yin didn't want to see Xiu Ke look at him with that kind of almost giving up eyes, and in another world, Xiu Yin was a very persistent person, just like he could go through eighty-seven job search failures in order to find a job as an actor he liked.

But didn't it succeed in the end! At least when Xiu Yin lay down as a corpse in Mali, his heart was happy.

"Young Master Xiuyin...... Hey, young master!"

After Bill shouted twice, Xiu Yin came back to his senses from his heroic feelings, turned around and wondered, "What's wrong Uncle Bill, ha, you don't have to worry about me." As he spoke, he patted the crossbow on his right shoulder with his left hand.

Bill untied a cylindrical object from his waist and said to Xiuin, "Master, you didn't have a crossbow arrow. ”

"Ah, ah, I see, ha, haha. With an embarrassed expression, Xiu Yin walked over and took the quiver with the crossbow arrow.

"Young master, you have to be careful!"

Jack dragged a wounded leg and sat up reluctantly, but he was a little skeptical that the young master would be able to do it, and he wouldn't be able to explain to Baron Neumann if he didn't hurt the young master again, but the old man paid special attention to the speed of this time to destroy the demon wolf......

"Don't worry, Uncle Jack, you're just waiting here for my good news!"

Xiuyin's face is still full of confidence, and this confident face at least makes Jack's heart become more steady, although Master Xiuyin is a half-mage in his impression, but his head is not developing in the direction of that kind of stupidity.

Seeing Xiuyin's figure gradually disappearing into the pit, Jack could only believe in the young master's sudden revelation of super high archery.

"It's not as dark as you thought it would be!"

Xiuin moved deeper along the path of the pit with his crossbow, and every dozen paces above the tunnel there was a miner's lamp that glowed softly, although the light was not as bright as outside, but it also ensured that Xiuin could see all the scenery in the path of the mine.

Xiu Yin knew that these lamps were actually very similar to the electric lamps of the original world, except that they consumed the energy generated by the "machinery with soul crystals as the core", and only from here can we see the important position of soul crystals in this world.

When he walked along the passage to a gate, he was puzzled to find that there was a large stone between the two gates that should have been completely closed, and it was this stone that made the two gates unable to close completely, leaving a gap in the middle that people could pass sideways.

"This is the second gate that Reiner is talking about, and when it was closed, it happened to be blocked by stones, causing the demon wolf to run deep into the mine......"

Thinking of this, Xiu Yin suddenly hesitated, and continued to go deeper, he didn't know if the road ahead would be dangerous.

Xiu Yin swallowed a mouthful ......of saliva, and there was a "grunt" sound at the Adam's apple.

Forward or backward?

"Of course I'm going to do it, or what I'm going to do here? at least let old Neumann know that I'm still qualified to inherit the family's title!"

Xiu Yin thought that if he didn't hurry up again, he would be kicked out of the house once Lin Ke inherited the family title, and he would not choose to retreat at this time.

After passing through the gate sideways, Xiuin noticed many plum blossom marks on the ground.

"It's the claw prints of the sharp-horned demon wolves!" Xiu Yin guessed that the two demon wolves must have passed through here, and the ground at the mouth of this mine was relatively soft, so it would leave a lot of paw prints.

Xiu Yin looked carefully on the ground, and found that there was a row of footprints that were obviously clearer than the others, and he was happy in his heart, "This is the remaining demon wolf who has just passed here, this is going to chase this row of footprints, hum......"

Patting the crossbow with his hand, with the footprints as an indication, Xiu Yin's courage increased, so that he could grasp the movements of the demon wolf without worrying about being attacked by the demon wolf. After all, once his current ability is attacked by the demon wolf, he will basically hang up directly.

Following the footprints left by the demon wolf, Xiuin stabilized the crossbow, and after reconfirming that the green crosshair in his field of vision could be displayed normally, he cautiously walked deeper into the pit.

Due to Xiuin's extra care, his forward speed was extremely slow, and even when Xiuin already felt some fatigue and soreness in his legs, the demon wolf claw prints on the ground continued to extend forward.

"Damn, how deep is this damn demon wolf going to run!" Xiu Yin began to curse the demon wolf who had made him so far.

"When I see you in a moment, I'll give you a headshot!"

While talking to himself, he also made a bolt pull motion on the crossbow, but there was no "click" of bullets on this crossbow that Xiu Yin was used to hearing.

After walking nearly twice the distance of the previous journey, when Xiu Yin began to be a little unable to stand and want to sit down and rest for a while, the eyes of the demon wolf that suddenly appeared in front of him with a green light made Xiu Yin feel a thrill.

Xiu Yin immediately aimed his crossbow at the location of the demon wolf.

Cold sweat oozed from his head, and the green crosshair in the center of his field of vision shook because of Xiuin's hands that had begun to tremble, and he couldn't aim at all.

"Calm down, calm down, take a deep breath ......"

"Whew—yes, it's like shooting a target with a gun for the first time......"

The sharp-horned demon wolf also discovered Xiuyin, and it grinned and let out a roar, but its single horn was smashed by Jack with a shield and collapsed a little, and the sharp pain on the horn also made the demon wolf's reaction a little sluggish, but this was a great benefit to Xiuyin, and it also gave Xiuyin a short time to calm down his nervous mood.

It wasn't long, but it wasn't short, the demon wolf's movements were sluggish for two seconds, and Xiuyin's deep breathing also took two seconds.

The demon wolf began to arch itself, its strong hind legs already bent, and Xiu knew that once he let it run, he would never have a way to live.

Like holding a training pistol, Xiuin felt like time had gone back to target training when he walked into the barracks.

Raise the gun, aim, shoot.

Syllable!

The vibrating sound of the crossbow strings is extra crisp in the mines.

Almost at the moment when the demon wolf's hind legs were ready to jump, a crossbow arrow that seemed to appear out of thin air pierced into its skull, and its body flew backwards more than a meter away because of the powerful momentum of the crossbow arrow.

Smack-

The crossbow in Xiuyin's hand fell to the ground, and all the suppressed tensions just now were released again at this time, and Xiuyin's hands and feet began to tremble, his life was really on the line between life and death.

Xiu Yin shook his body and walked towards the demon wolf, kicked the corpse fiercely, and at the same time scolded his mantra in his mouth, "Fork his knees, let you hurt Lao Tzu so nervous, watch me kick you, kick you!"

After venting his feet on the corpse of the demon wolf, Xiu Yin could no longer stand the strong fatigue caused by this body, and sat down on the ground with a pop.

"Oops!"

As soon as Xiuin's ass touched the ground, he felt something in the ground stab him hard.

"What is this?"

Enduring the pain in his buttocks, Xiu Yin turned out a stone from the soil layer under his buttocks, which seemed to have the smell of a demon wolf.

Lifting the stone, which was almost half the size of a fist, through the dim light of the pit, Xiun revealed that it was a blood-red, somewhat translucent stone, and that it appeared to have a slimy liquid inside.

Xiu Yin was surprised, "This is not a soul crystal!"
