Chapter 3 Add fire and illuminate a range of ten meters!

“It’s actually ore?!”

Xu Jingnian was a bit shocked.

Unexpectedly, the little pangolin actually did dig up ore by accident, making him bet right!

It wasn’t coal, nor was it a coffin board, but it was obvious that this fire crystal was much more precious than the former, a true transcendent treasure!

And, looking at this description, there might be an entire vein of fire crystals underground!

“Fantastic little guy, go ahead and dig, gather all this up and bring it up to me!”

The pangolin nodded.

Turning around, he burrowed back into the pit.

Xu Jingnian, on the other hand, pinched this Fire Crystal, his insides on fire, and opened the [Trading] panel.

Instead of going straight to individual people to trade, he shelved the fire crystals like those people did.

[Fire Crystal *1: A transcendent treasure, a crystal that enables fire-type favored beasts to level up! Exchange for a large amount of firewood.]

On Xu Jingnian’s finger, a mist suddenly emerged, and the fire crystal was wrapped up, disappearing moments later.

By the time the fire crystals hit the shelves, the homestead campfire had been burning for almost twenty minutes below the bottom line.

But Xu Jingnian wasn’t panicking in the slightest right now.

Trading fire crystals, which were absolutely useful to fire-type pet beasts, for firewood, one didn’t need to think about it to know that it would definitely be very sought after!

After all, their advantage was that their favored beasts could add to the fire, and without relying on external objects, firewood was as good as scrap.

Xu Jingnian imagined that image, the homestead campfire was about to go out, and the Fire Favored Beast directly spewed out a mouthful of blazing fire, energizing it and setting it ablaze again.

I have to say the advantages are huge.

But Xu Jingnian wasn’t envious.

Because his own favored beasts, coupled with this Sentinel Beast Talent, were just too useful!

If he hadn’t helped his pet beasts rest, making the little pangolin armor dig for a moment.

Can’t even dig up this fire crystal when the campfire goes out ……

Soon.

Under Xu Jingnian’s fire crystal trading bar, there were a lot of exchange requests, as well as messages.

【Wood *10: Big brother, this wood was traded with my life with my pet beast, now I need this fire crystal to heal my wounds, please exchange it!

[Fuel*5: Five barrels of fuel stolen from a deadly factory in the mists only after risking my life, and believe me, it’s definitely better than wood for firewood!

[Sycamore Plank *3: A very wide and thick plank, very capable of burning, brother I’m still a student, please, trade with me!

All the trade requests were firewood, and any one of them could have relieved Xu Jingnian’s quenching need.

But the quantity is just too stingy.

Xu Jingnian didn’t immediately exchange them, patiently continuing to wait, looking again at the messages below:

“Fire crystals? No, man, my favored beast fought through a beast only after suffering serious injuries, and I got a nail ……. How did you get this kind of treasure?!”

“It can help level up a Fire Favored Beast? My god ……”

“Bro, you’re the first person I’ve seen trading Transcendent Resources, and you’re actually just exchanging it for firewood? for building a house or not? Worthy of being a big brother!”

“Is big brother a national? Having the strength to get this kind of treasure, but only want to land and build a home first, this is definitely a unique sentiment ……”

Obviously, the preciousness of the fire crystals far exceeded their normal value, and even most people were shocked.

After all, it was currently only a few hours since everyone had descended upon this hellhole.

Everyone though the extraction of the contracted pet beasts have their own strengths and weaknesses, the strong ones are very strong and the weak ones are very weak ……

However, the time was too short, and even if he could fight through some of the beasts of the mist, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to get his hands on a transcendent resource like fire crystals.

This led everyone to believe that Xu Jingnian was a top tier big shot, and the Super Favored Beast he had contracted was feared to have pushed across the Death Mist!

However, the real situation is that he was blocked home by the beast, and did not dare to step into the mist half a step ……

Waiting time.

Xu Jingnian heard another rattle coming from the pit, and this time the pangolin came up quickly.

It crawled out, and this time, on top of the cupped little paw, there were actually two reddish fire crystals!

[Fire Crystal*2: A crystal containing fire energy.]

It’s too strong.

Mainly still, at the moment, transcendent resources like fire crystals were scarce and even unique, making them very precious.

And Xu Jingnian’s little pangolin actually managed to get three of them straight away in such a few hours’ time!

It’s a fortune!

Who understands, monsters are blocking the doors and you can’t leave your home, but there’s a vein of ore underground ……

“I love you so much, little one!”

Xu Jingnian took the fire crystal from his little paw and reached out to stroke its head again.

The pangolin shifted, somewhat pleased.

In fact, it enjoys digging in, warm and fuzzy, and the harder it works, the more comfortable it gets ……

It immediately turned its head, cleaned up the debris around the pit, and continued to drill into the pit, digging for minerals!

Xu Jingnian, on the other hand, sat on the ground and remained in a state of rest, waiting patiently until after only ten minutes remained for the bonfire to burn.

By now, the flames of the homestead campfire were literally wavering, as if a gust of wind could blow them out.

Although the panel said there was still ten minutes of burning time, Xu Jingnian didn’t dare to wait any longer.

The firelight was so faint that he could even clearly see the outline of the unknown beast’s torso in the mist.

It was a tall, thin, humanoid-like creature hunched over with very long and sharp claws.

Look to the [Trading] panel:

Many new trade requests and messages have been added, and the previous ones that talked a good game but gouged on quantity have been scrubbed.

Xu Jingnian checked it out and finally selected a more satisfactory trade request:

[Decomposed Large Tree Trunk*100: “After seeing this fire crystal, the wood that was purposely felled, at least enough to burn for a month, begs to be traded.” (Yes/No trade?)]

Clearly, this man and his favored beast were strong!

It can even go on its own accord to lumber, and it’s extremely fast.

A whole hundred large tree trunks, not at all in the same order of magnitude as those stingy requests at the beginning.

Xu Jingnian ordered the deal.

Next moment.

Only to see that on one side of the bonfire, a dark mist suddenly emerged, and after a while, when the mist dissipated, a whole hundred pieces of tree trunks had been placed on the ground!

Each of these decomposed trunks, each section, was almost a meter long and nearly half a meter thick!

Xu Jingnian opened the [Bonfire] panel:

[Homestead bonfire]

[Illumination range: five meters in diameter (changeable …… currently consumes 5 points of firewood per hour)]

[Remaining firewood: 0.81]

[Estimated burn time: nine minutes]

[Adding Fire: Is there any wood nearby that can be used as firewood, and is it all converted into firewood?]

“Add fire.” Xu Jingnian agreed.

I saw the homestead campfire, which was nearly extinguished, suddenly sprout sparks of fire, which, when they stained the wood piled next to it, set it directly on fire.

In a flash, all of the tree trunks quickly burned up, eventually turning into flames and completely merging into the bonfire!

Boom–

The flames of the campfire erupted with unprecedented heat, dispelling all cold and illuminating the environment within five meters.

[The fire was successful!

[Homestead bonfire]

[Illumination range: five meters in diameter (changeable …… currently consumes 5 points of firewood per hour)]

[Remaining firewood: 13249↑]

[Estimated burn time: 2649 hours ……]

Xu Jingnian looked at the burning flames, and especially after seeing the estimated burning time, he instantly felt a complete sense of security!

There were just ten minutes left and the flames were about to go out immediately.

Now it burns fiercely, finally feeling the heat.

More than two thousand hours, it simply can not be burned ah, and he still has two fire crystals ……

Thinking of this, Xu Jingnian decided that he would raise the scope of the bonfire a bit.

Five meters in diameter is too small.

The mists of death were almost next to him, and he could even occasionally hear the panting of the unknown beast!

[Changed the bonfire illumination range to: ten meters in diameter! Currently consumes ten points of firewood per hour]

Boom–

The flames of the homestead bonfire burst into flames again.

In the next moment, Xu Jingnian realized that the surrounding mists were rapidly receding outwards, and the unknown beast was, in fact, exposed to the firelight.

“Hiss-!!!”

It let out a hiss, but it was so burned by the campfire that it couldn’t move, so it could only frantically wriggle on the ground.

Not a moment too soon.

Burning white smoke was coming out all over his body.

Xu Jingnian was meticulously by the campfire.

At that exact moment, the pit in the ground rattled and the pangolin nimbly jumped out of the hole.

“Little guy!”

Xu Jingnian waved his hand, “Go!”
