After the two unconscious companions woke up and the dwarves barely able to move, Barrett sent the group out of the abandoned mine.

The dwarf Morey revealed that he wanted to recruit him as a bodyguard, but Barrett did not agree on the spot, only said that he would talk about it later, because the dwarf's injuries would take some time to heal. After all, no matter how miraculous the potion is, it also takes time and rest for the body to fully recover.

Then, our barbarian adventurer turned around and returned to the mine, looking for the other Crystal-scaled lizards needed for the mission.

The young man named 'Nishizawa' told Barrett that the crystal-scaled lizards that were wandering at the bottom of the large crystal cave had been led by him to the smaller crystal cave with food, and that he had set up two improvised traps in the entrance of the passage, and had locked them up with wooden planks.

The young man was still scratching his head and smiling bitterly that although the plank would not stop it for long, it would be enough for them to take this adventure. It's just that I didn't expect that in the process of prospecting, I was very unlucky to encounter an adult purple worm.

Barrett followed Nishizawa's direction and walked slowly through the huge cavern. The road was quite quiet, and there was no fighting, but the sound of dripping water from unknown places had been reverberating slightly in the empty cave, and there were some spiders, big or small, who crawled out of nowhere. They crawl around the brute, but they don't attack him.

The long-legged, fluffy black-brown spider would smoke from its white eyes when the glow of the glowing stone reached its body, and then it would run away with a painful scream, hiding its body in the darkness, and then glaring at the pair of small scarlet eyes, silently watching Barritt.

After about a cup of tea, the barbarian finally found the hole that was blocked by three planks. The peculiar roar of many crystal-scaled lizards could be faintly heard in the cave.

Barrett casually took the plank apart and stepped inside. There is a spike trap and a lasso trap in the corridor connecting the two caves, the traps are very obviously arranged, and they are not very useful for intelligent creatures, but they are enough to deal with crystal-scaled lizards or other low-intelligence creatures.

According to Nishizawa, this can allow the brainless underground creatures to learn a lesson in a short period of time and stop them from approaching.

Instead of tearing down the two simple traps, Barrett chose to pass sideways against the rock wall, and came to the small abandoned cave opposite. The specific size of the two crystal caves is not too obvious, and it is difficult to reach the boundary of the cave as far as the light source can reach.

When he entered the cave with the glowing stone, three crystal-scaled lizards were immediately attracted by the light source and rushed towards him from not far away. Two of the lizards were relatively small, almost indistinguishable from the three he had encountered outside. The other Crystal Scale Lizard was extremely large, more than a third larger than its kind, and the scales on its body were not ordinary dark yellow, but purple-black with a strange feeling.

Barrett wondered if the purple-black lizard was a target for the mission, or if it was a variant of the Crystal-scaled lizard.

Anyway, since the other party sent it to the door, the killing will still be killed after all.

The purple-black lizard crawls much faster than its counterpart, and its skin is tougher than that of a regular crystal-scaled lizard (Barrett can clearly feel it when she peels it), but it doesn't protect its shiny vertical pupils. The big lizard didn't even have a natural spell-like ability, so he was rolled by Barrett and stabbed to death with a dagger.

Dealing with three at the same time will only be more troublesome than dealing with one alone, but that's about it. The huge purple worms didn't hurt Barrett in the slightest, and it was even more impossible for a few crystal-scaled lizards of average strength.

It's just that although Barrett is always very careful, when it comes to peeling, there is still a little accident.

Although the purple-black crystal-scaled lizard was pierced through its brain by the long dagger through its eyes, and it lay on the ground without a sound, when Barrett peeled it halfway and was about to cut off the crystal clusters on the top of its head along the lizard's scales, the other intact eyes of the large lizard and the crystal clusters on the top of its head exploded at the same time.

The intense light was accompanied by what appeared to be a high-frequency sound wave, which left Barrett in blindness and pinprick pain in his right eye, accompanied by prolonged tinnitus, deafness, and brief dizziness.

Damn! Barriet, who was fiercely retaliated against by the corpse at close range, covered his right eye in pain, and knelt on the spot to rest for a long time. During this time, several more Crystal Scale Lizards were attracted by the light and crawled from a distance, but all of them were hacked to death by his sword.

Although the precise stabbing is not possible for the time being, the violent slash is still completely fine.

Aside from the Crystal Lizard, there were no other kinds of monsters near him during Barrett's rest, and it seemed that there were very few other underground creatures in this small crystal cavern. In fact, it's normal to think about this situation, the Crystal Scale Lizard can defeat most of the underground creatures with the innate spell ability of this 'Crystal Shine' alone.

A day-walking people like humans can't withstand that kind of intense, dazzling light, and the aborigines of those dark regions are naturally even more impossible.

It took almost a meal for Barrett to fully return to normal. He learned his lesson and pierced the purple-black lizard's other intact eye before carefully skinning it.

Fortunately, nothing like this happened after that, and the hunt ended without a hitch. Not counting the large purple-black lizards, the complete scales of the 13 ordinary crystal-scaled lizards have all been collected.

Barrett actually encountered another large purple-black lizard in the back, but in order to prevent it from using its advanced talent ability with strong light and sound waves (high-frequency sound waves cannot be stopped for the time being), the barbarian chose to directly throw the resonant tomahawk and send it flying to death.

After collecting it, Barrett turned and walked out of the abandoned mine, and after a night's rest in Crystal Town, he returned to the city-state of Muya.

By handing over the lizard's scales to Master Tailor Erica, and the head of Zachary the Lizard-Man to the Warlord Julian, his Soul Energy has reached [310/300], and he has three new skills to choose from.

It is worth mentioning that he still has one skill point left unused before, so the upper edge of the obsidian border of the [Mission Log] is currently displayed with two purple round crystals.

[Mission Log] showed a lot of content this time, but Barrett's attention was immediately attracted by the three skills to choose from.

[1. The roar of the four-armed demon ape: Transformation skill ......]

[2. Death Knight's Cold: Transformation Skill ......]

[3. The Breath of the Corruptor of All Things: Transformation Skill ......]

These three skills, each followed by several incidental sub-skills, seem to be used together.
