We looked at the glowing crystal for a while, trying to figure out just what this thing was. But in the end, we weren't able to figure out a single thing. While the crystal itself seemed special because of the glow around it, it didn't actually seem like this crystal did anything. Well, other than seemingly giving power to the manta rays earlier. This crystal was without a doubt connected to the turtle in some way with the flow of mana and the reaction that it had with the manta rays. Though it was hard to tell exactly what the connection between this crystal and the turtle was. At the very least, that meant that this was a place to start. After observing this crystal for a bit, I suddenly pulled out the bone sword and slashed at the crystal. I didn't know if it would work, but I was certainly surprised by what happened. It wasn't that the crystal broke or that the crystal completely resisted the slash. Rather, the slash seemed to go right through the crystal and then the crystal reattached itself. It was as if the crystal had been split, but then repaired itself before the damage could become permanent. If one didn't see it with their own eyes, then it would have been hard to believe it. By the end, it seemed like there wasn't anything that had happened to the crystal, even though a sword had just gone through it. It had completely repaired itself and had returned to normal. After looking at the crystal for a bit, I suddenly swung the bone sword at it a few more times. It was just that every time the bone sword made contact with the crystal, the same thing happened where the sword would go right through it without damaging it. It was clear that I wouldn't be able to actually cut the sword like this. Even when I cut it from the base as if I wanted to separate the crystal from the ground, there was nothing that happened. It just repaired itself like all the other times that I slashed this crystal. It really didn't make sense how this crystal was able to repair itself again and again like this, but that didn't mean that I stopped slashing at it. That was because while I was slashing at the crystal, I was also looking carefully at it to see how it reattached itself each time. I was looking carefully at the gap to see what was happening between the two halves of the crystal. All I saw was that there was a current of mana to where the split was and then it seemed to grow the part that was cut. This part grew to grab the other half and then reattached itself like nothing happened. It was as if it was growing over the parts that were being separated. Once I was certain that this was the case, I stopped slashing at the crystal with the bone sword since I knew that there was nothing that I could do with this sword alone. Instead, I said, "Burn it." As soon as I said this, the ogre all around me suddenly breathed fire at the crystal. Since I couldn't break it with physical force, the only thing that I could do was try to destroy it with something that wasn't physical. Instead, I was going to burn this crystal to ashes. Only before the fire that the ogres breathed out could even reach the crystal, there seemed to be an intense glow that came from it. It was hard to keep staring at the crystal when it released this intense glow, but I forced myself to watch as a barrier appeared around the crystal. That barrier promptly stopped all of the flames that approached it, so that not a single spark reached it. All of the flames were easily scattered by the barrier that the crystal released. Once all of the flames were gone, the barrier disappeared and the crystal returned to normal. Continue your journey on My Virtual Library Empire It didn't seem like there was anything that we could do to destroy this crystal. But at the same time, it didn't seem like there was anything that the crystal could do to attack us. It seemed like the only thing that the crystal could do was defend itself from all attacks. "Alright, let's stop here for now. There are still the others that we have to find." I said as a bad feeling filled me. I made sure to look out the window and it seemed like the turtle head was still occupied with something else even though we had attacked this crystal. But when I looked closely, I could see that there was another pack of manta rays that were heading in this direction. It seemed like they were rushing over to protect the crystal. At the same time, it seemed like there were far more of them than before. This might be dangerous to us if we had to fight in this place. So I quickly led everyone out of this place and closed the door behind us. After leaving that room, we went to the surrounding rooms and hid there while waiting for the manta rays to come. But in the end, it didn't seem like the manta rays were chasing after us. It didn't even seem like they left the room that the crystal was in. From the window, we could see that the manta rays seemed to be staying in that room as if they were guarding the crystal. But after a while, it seemed like they had lost their patience as they left the room again and went back to the turtle head. After going back to the turtle head, they went to another part of the castle that had been cast off and started attacking the humans again. It seemed that for now, we were safe. It was just that we still had no idea what that crystal was… seaʀᴄh thё NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
