Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 268 Battlefield Treasure: Star Sea Celestial Vein, One vs. Dozens!

Fortunately, Lu Ran used his mental power to investigate and found that the territory where the three demon leaders lived was not far from the Wind Soul Seed.

The group quickened their pace and soon felt a scorching heat of flames rushing towards them.

"A fire-attribute demon ruler?"

Zhao Manyan muttered to himself, "This sense of oppression is a bit too strong!"
"It's a fire-attribute overlord, the Earth Lizard Pseudo-Dragon!" Eileen suddenly exclaimed, her expression serious.

Everyone frowned, gazing at the three enormous pseudo-fire dragons in the distant fiery cave!
Each of these three pseudo-dragons exudes an extremely strong aura!

The giant lizard pseudo-dragon that Lu Ran had previously tamed was still quite different from this earth lizard pseudo-dragon.

It's already comparable to the Wuhai Pseudo-Dragon in the original work.

These three-headed earth lizard fire dragons inhabit the fiery caves, and the environmental advantages make them even more powerful. In this place, they can definitely be called the overlords and demons.

Given the average skill level of the National Team players, it would take at least a small team of five or six people working together to deal with such a pseudo-dragon.

The three-headed earth lizard pseudo-dragon inhabits this area, and to deal with them, it would probably require at least three national teams to join forces!
The fact that it took such a huge effort to resolve this indicates that the treasure it was guarding was absolutely top-tier!

This convinced Lu Ran that the thing in the cave was most likely the real battlefield treasure of this year!

"Let's do it!" Mu Ningxue, who disliked the aura of flames, spoke decisively.

“I can help too,” Eileen said.

As the Grand Duke of Victoria, she knew the false dragon all too well.

But Lu Ran declined everyone's offer of help, saying:
"You can just stand by and watch over me. If any rude people try to break in, I'll need you to stop them."

Eileen was puzzled and asked doubtfully, "You mean..."

"I can handle these three earth lizard fire dragons all by myself!"

Eileen opened her mouth, then paused, stunned.

She knew all too well how powerful the pseudo-dragons were; even Zheluo couldn't possibly deal with these three leader pseudo-dragons alone.

Eileen observed the expressions of the Kyushu National Team members around her and found that they did not find it strange.

It seems we've already gotten used to it?

“Okay, my mind-control device will monitor the surroundings.” Eileen turned and left.

Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, and the others followed immediately.

Lu Ran looked at the three-headed earth lizard pseudo-dragon, and the next moment, he transformed into lightning and flew out like a bolt of lightning.

At the same time, Lei Si's phantom appeared high in the sky!

Lightning crackled around Lei Si, and a Thunder God Spear was thrown out by him, like a guillotine wielded by the Grim Reaper!

In an instant, the pseudo-dragons dwelling in the three molten lava heads were all terrified. They flapped their fleshy wings and took flight, desperately trying to dodge the attack!
But high-level level three lightning magic, plus the magical amplification from the Thunder Emperor's Crown and the power of Thunder God!

A mere ruler of demons.
The thunderous sound was like a booming bell!
In the distance, Eileen, Mu Ningxue, and the others turned around in unison, their eyes narrowing as they stared at the earth-shattering thunder. The deafening roar sent chills down their spines.

"With this kind of power, I doubt anyone would question whether it's a super-tier lightning magic, right?" Zhao Manyan said, trembling.

The thunderous sound of the bell sent shivers down the spines of everyone still vying for the Wind Soul Seed in the distance!
"Holy crap, is there a war going on over there?"

"What the hell? How many lightning mages are there over there?"

Outside the cave, the Night Lord reigned supreme over everything.

A ground lizard pseudo-dragon was cut in half at the waist, its blood drenching the earth.

A pseudo-dragon had its fleshy wing broken off, struggled in agony, but was powerless to resist.

The remaining pseudo-dragon desperately flapped its fleshy wings, trying to escape the long darkness.

Lu Ran didn't even turn his head. He summoned Little Flame Princess and commanded, "Kill it, but leave its corpse intact. The body of a pseudo-dragon is quite valuable."

As soon as she finished speaking, Little Flame Princess transformed into Flame Princess Girl and flew away as a streak of fiery light.

Lu Ran walked straight into the cave.

The cave was vast and silent, cold and quiet.

At the very center, a powerful spatial restriction was set up.

If anyone else were to come here, they would probably be at a loss and unable to break through this restriction.

However, for Lu Ran, who possessed strong mental power, this restriction was practically useless.

Lu Ran summoned the waters of the Styx River and splashed them onto the barrier.

In the blink of an eye, the restriction disappeared, revealing the jade box placed on the stone pillar.

Lu Ran opened the box with his mind control. Inside was a piece of jade covered in a dazzling fluorescent light, containing extremely rich energy, which excited Lu Ran.

"This is... the Star Sea Celestial Vein?"

Lu Ran calmed down. He had obtained a pure Star Sea Celestial Vein from his advisor Fenna in Egypt, so he knew it very well. He murmured to himself:
"No, it's just a defective product, but it still has 70% of the energy of a normal Star Sea Celestial Vein, and its market price is higher than that of a top-grade Soul Seed!"

Lu Ran pondered, if it's worth over a billion, then the value of this battlefield treasure would probably rank among the top in all previous editions!
A genuine Star Sea Celestial Vein is worth at least two billion, and it's extremely rare and highly sought after. Any high-level mage who gets their hands on it will keep it to use for a breakthrough.

"It's time to go and find out who owns that wind-type soul seed."

Lu Ran found Eileen and the others who were observing from a distance.

Sure enough, the commotion here attracted a lot of busybodies.

Zhe Luo, who had just acquired the Wind-type Soul Seed, also came upon hearing the commotion.

"Eileen, are you helping the people of Kyushu?" Zheluo said coldly.

Eileen remained silent for a moment, then retorted, "Zheluo, we are cooperating and helping each other!"

Zheluo, too lazy to listen any longer, looked at Lu Ran and sneered:
"The battlefield treasure has fallen into your hands, hasn't it? Hand it over!"

Lu Ran narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You want me to hand over resources?"

Zhelu straightened up, showing Lu Ran his army of dozens of men behind him, and laughed:

"Lu Ran, haven't you heard that we're going to team up to eliminate you during the treasure hunt?"

"Hand over the treasures of this land, and I may let you leave; otherwise..."

Lu Ran narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Are you threatening me?"

"I was originally thinking of leaving this Wind Soul Seed to Britain out of consideration for Eileen, but now it seems that I was too merciful!"

Lu Ran looked at the dozens of foreigners in front of him, this alliance formed to eliminate him, and sneered:

"Hand over all the resources you have!"

Zhe Luo, Shao He Gu, and other powerful figures from the National Government were stunned.

We have dozens of people surrounding you now, and you expect us to hand over resources?

Crazy?
But the next moment, a dense, oppressive aura of death swept over, engulfing everything.

Behind Lu Ran, there was no longer just Mu Ningxue and a few other members of the Kyushu Kingdom, but a densely packed army of undead crawling out from the cracked earth!
Countless spirits, accompanied by howls, deathly aura, and lamentations.
The wailing roars and cries of the dead echoed throughout the valley, their lingering sounds never ceasing!
Undead, countless powerful undead!

Each one exudes the aura of a warrior taking the first step!
In an instant, thousands of undead surrounded the alliance that was attacking Lu Ran.

Everyone turned pale and was stunned!
