Chapter 242: Cuijing x Radiation

Xia Jieren asked curiously, "King Willy, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, just a bunch of annoying flies." Willy waved his hand, and then he said apologetically: "Sorry, I need to go take care of it."

After Xia Jieren expressed his understanding, Willy walked straight towards the palace.

"Kerrigan, do you know what happened?" Xia Jieren asked in his heart.

After a while.

"My Lord, it seems that people from the World Government are here to visit. I saw people from the CP organization." Kerrigan replied.

Xia Jieren frowned and thought, "What are the people from the World Government doing here? Are they trying to win over the Kingdom of Elgea?"

After thinking carefully for a while, Xia Jieren still couldn't figure it out.

"Let's go and take a look." Xia Jieren called everyone back to the palace.

In order to avoid meeting people from the CP organization, Xia Jieren deliberately entered the palace through the back door.

When the guard saw Xia Jieren and others, instead of stopping them, he greeted them warmly.

Xia Jieren waited quietly for a while.

After a cup of tea.

Willy sent away the malicious members of the World Government.

He apologized, "Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Xia Jieren waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care.

Then, he asked curiously, "By the way! Can you tell me the purpose of the World Government coming here?"

"Is the World Government planning to win over the Kingdom of Elgea?"

"Haha~, of course no problem." Willy replied with a smile.

He then slowly explained the purpose of the World Government's visit to the Kingdom of Elgea.

original.

Some time ago, the giants discovered a gem mine in the southeast of the Kingdom of Elgia.

Somehow this news was known to people in the World Government.

After their inspection, they found that this gem mine contained a gem called emerald, which was extremely valuable.

One gram of turquoise is worth ten grams of gold.

"So, the World Government has been pestering us, wanting to jointly develop the Emerald Mine with our Kingdom of Elgea." Willy said helplessly.

Willy couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought about the world government that was like a dog-skin plaster.

What is even more troublesome is that the Kingdom of Elgea is afraid of the power of the World Government and cannot take direct action.

"Huh~, why would the World Government be interested in a gem mine?" Xia Jieren asked curiously.

"Who knows? Maybe they want to lure us through this gem mine and make us giants work for them." Willy guessed.

He snorted coldly and said, "If that's the case, then they underestimate us giants."

Xia Jieren didn't understand what he heard.

Seeing this, Willy explained: "The conditions offered by the World Government are very good. We are responsible for mining the emerald crystals, and they are responsible for selling them at a high price. The World Government also promised to only take 20% of the profits."

"And after reaching a cooperation agreement, the World Government will provide the Giants with a large amount of living supplies and even iron ore."

"There is a conspiracy." This thought suddenly popped into Xia Jieren's mind after listening.

Xia Jieren touched his chin, looked up at Willy, and slowly said, "Excuse me, I think the World Government must have other conspiracies."

"I feel the same way, that's why I've been reluctant to agree." Willy nodded. He shared the same idea as Xia Jieren.

There is no free lunch in the world.

The world government is not a good thing.

Based on Xia Jieren's understanding of the World Government, how could they possibly give up such huge benefits?

However, Xia Jieren couldn't think of anything.

At this time, he became interested and said, "King Willy, can you let me see the Emerald? I have never seen this kind of gem."

"Of course, my friend." Willy agreed immediately without any hesitation.

After a while.

A heroic female giant walked in carrying a piece of jade crystal the size of a volleyball.

She carefully placed Cuijing in front of Xia Jieren.

Only at this moment did Xia Jieren see Cuijing's appearance clearly.

Chalcedony has an emerald green color and a glassy luster. Even without being polished, it still sparkles and is more dazzling than other gems such as agate, jadeite and diamond.

Xia Jieren took a step forward, intending to take a closer look.

But the next second, he stopped.

An ominous premonition emerged from the bottom of his heart, making his heart skip a beat.

"My Lord, be careful! This emerald is emitting radiation." Kerrigan's voice was rarely anxious.

"What!" Xia Jieren was horrified and stepped back.

He even had the urge to run away.

"My Lord, don't worry! The radiation range is limited. As long as the distance is no more than three meters, everything will be fine." Kerrigan comforted.

Hearing this, Xia Jieren breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong, my friend?" Willy asked with concern.

Xia Jieren looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched and his face felt a little hot.

"Ahem!" He coughed lightly and explained with a serious look in his eyes, "This piece of emerald crystal is poisonous."

When these words were spoken, the room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

"Impossible!" The giantess who had just brought the Emerald Crystal retorted immediately: "If it is poisonous, then how come I have taken it so many times and nothing happened until now?"

"and......"

Before she could finish her words, Willy raised his hand to stop her.

Willy looked at Xia Jieren seriously and said word by word: "Friend! Are you sure?"

Xia Jieren looked at Willy seriously and nodded heavily.

Hearing this, Willy's frown deepened.

The rest of the people had confused expressions on their faces.

Xia Jieren patiently explained: "I felt the radiation from Cuijing."

“Radiation is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it does exist.”

"Radiation damages the human body slowly and fatally."

"Prolonged exposure to radiation can lead to various terminal illnesses and significantly shorten life expectancy."

"The most terrifying thing is that people who have been exposed to radiation for a long time will have offspring with deformities, or even no offspring at all."

"What!" Willy couldn't bear it any longer and screamed.

The other giants also showed expressions of disbelief.

"Are you telling the truth?" Willy asked anxiously.

"Of course!" Xia Jieren replied affirmatively.

To increase his persuasiveness, he added: "If King Willy can't do it, you can find small animals such as snakes, insects, rats and ants and put them in the Emerald Mine, feed them regularly, and see how they change."

After hearing this, Willy believed 90% of Xia Jieren's words. As for the last 10%, it was because of his caution as a king.

"Kyle! Hurry... hurry and try it according to Xia Jieren's words." Willy randomly picked a giant and gave him the order.

The giant named Kyle realized the seriousness of the problem and did not dare to delay, and hurried to verify the truthfulness of Xia Jieren's words.

The room fell into silence again.

Willy and others felt a little uneasy.

Seeing this, Xia Jieren didn't know what to say.

Only after the results come out can he continue to flatter the giants.
