Chapter 89 Strong Acid Gem

"You...really don't want it?"

When the hill giant sent Ron and others to the fourth floor, facing the people who wanted to "return the property to its original owner", the hill giant seemed at a loss.

"I'll say it again: we really didn't steal it!"

Ron bit his back teeth, and Sera stood aside like a child who had done something wrong.

"Didn't you see the dead ghouls when you came? They stole your food, and we are here to kill them!"

Ghouls lurk on the edge of the hill giant's lair. They are more cunning than ordinary scavengers and monsters-especially if they are led by demons, they can use simple deception to steal the giant's food. For example, a whole or even a whole group of corpses.

"But the elf said," the hill giant was a little confused, "he killed the ghouls."

"He's lying to you!" Ivy said, "He's a liar!"

"Liar...? Deception?" The hill giant asked in a muffled voice, still not quite believing it.

"He cheated many people, abandoned many people, and killed many people to achieve his goals," Ron thought for a while, "He said you and him are in a cooperative relationship. What did you cooperate on?"

"He helped me find food," the hill giant thought for a while, "I gave him a glass ball."

Glass ball?

"It's a glass ball for him," Victoria said, "maybe it's another gem."

"Do you know where he is now?" Ron asked the giant hurriedly.

"Right... there?" The hill giant turned back subconsciously, but where was Mindatis over there?

"He went to steal things from your nest!" Driver jumped onto the hill giant's shoulder and yelled, "You idiot! He cheated you away and then went to raid your house!"

"If you don't believe me, let's go see if he's there!"

"This... good!" Upon hearing this, the hill giant quickly got up and ran out, and Ron and the others followed closely.

The hill giant's nest was not too far from here. When they arrived, they saw Quest sneaking away.

"Quest! Stop!" Ron shouted, "Where is Mindatis? Leave the gem to me!"

"Don't even think about it!" Quest sneered, turned around and ran, flipping his hand and throwing a bunch of various glass balls to Ron and the others, "Do you want this? Here I give it back to you!"

"Don't let him run away!"

Ron yelled, but the team chased very slowly. Although the hill giant had a huge stride, he moved slowly and had a poor vision. After chasing for only a few dozen steps, he completely lost the trace of Quest.

"Damn it, he ran away! The thing you want must be very important, right?"

Sylvia stamped her feet and said angrily: "It's a pity that I don't have any magic, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to let him run away with levitation - what's wrong with you?"

The dhampir looked at Ron and others in confusion. They didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. Instead, they started picking up the glass balls that the tieflings used as a decoy: "What are you doing? Chase him!"

"Chase who?" Ivy smiled and glanced at her, "Quest is still as careless as ever. Look, he threw out the real thing as a decoy!"

As she said, Ivy raised a gem sphere to Sylvia. Even without the detection magic, Sylvia could feel the majestic power inside: "Is this it?"

"That's it, we got one before," Ron smiled and nodded, " Loyalty is commendable, but incompetence is lacking, this is probably what Quest is like. "

"No way, who made him have a 'good' master?" Sera put her arm behind her head and whistled, "He ran away before he got the things - is he so afraid of death?"

"Maybe it's because his master won't revive him again?" Victoria snorted, "He is quite self-aware of this."

"Big guy, then we will take this as a reward, do you have any objections?" Ron weighed the gem ball handed over by Ivy and looked up at the hill giant, "Are the others useful? If not, we plan to take them away."

"Useless," the hill giant shook his big head, "Can't eat, it will make your teeth ache."

Giants are not dragons, they are not so keen on treasures, and their digestive systems are not enough for them to digest glass and gems.

"By the way, now do you know who that elf is?"

"Thief, liar!" The hill giant waved his fist angrily, "If I see him again, I'll eat him even his bones!"

"Very good," Ron nodded with satisfaction, "By the way, if you see any humanoid creatures other than that elf in the future, don't eat them, understand?"

"This way we can have a reason not to kill you."

He had to make it clear with this hill giant in advance, so as to avoid psychological burden at that time.

"Wear clothes, don't eat, except for male elves." The hill giant shuddered slightly and repeated Ron's words.

The place where Sera had just beaten him was still aching, and he didn't want to be beaten again.

After getting the guarantee from the hill giant, Ron and others left here, but they were not in a hurry to go back, but were going to meet a friend and ally deep in the Delusion Land and take something out of his treasure house.

Specifically, it was the amethyst slab placed in the Exuri treasure house.

You led the way, while Ron fell at the back. He opened the preface of the weaving method and used the identification technique that came with the spell book to identify this new gem.

This gemstone is different from the blue-purple lightning gemstone inlaid on Evita's shield. Instead, it shows a gorgeous turquoise color, reflecting complex light of varying shades under the reflection of sunlight.

Just like the Lightning Gem, which can store up to six lightning beams and make the wearer immune to electric shocks, this gem also functions as a magic item.

"How is it?" Sylvia rubbed her hands and looked at the gem expectantly.

She already knew that Ron's spell book was a relic of the Hailan Empire. It would be too hypocritical to say that she didn't want one.

If this gem key could also open a spell book——

"Elemental weapons, three times a day, lasting a full eight hours but..." Ron raised his head with a strange expression, "But only strong acid."

"In addition, it can also be enchanted on armor to make it resistant to strong acid."

The elemental weapon spell generally allows you to choose one of a variety of elements to enchant a non-magical weapon and turn it into a magical weapon, but it only lasts for an hour and requires the caster to stay focused.
