CHAPTER 516: CHAPTER 222 HARVEST_2

Liang Yuan’s eyes flashed, immediately recalling what Tian Wei had said earlier.

He was the first to master the Bursting Rune.

Unexpectedly, it was true. This guy not only mastered the Bursting Rune, but even after his death, the rune was engraved on his skull!

"Does that mean that those who can master rune technology will all have runes born within their bodies?"

Liang Yuan’s heart moved, and he had a horrifying guess.

Could it be that there’s also a Spirit Turtle Shield Rune in my skull?

Then aren’t the superpower users who master runes extremely dangerous?

They could be targeted and attacked at any time by people who covet the runes formed in their bodies.

"It is indeed a rune. You did well. If we can master the rune on it, maybe in the future, our shelter can also produce Bursting Runes."

Liang Yuan praised Wu Ying, who immediately beamed with joy and said, "Then wouldn’t we no longer have to fear those people from Phoenix Temple?"

Liang Yuan laughed, "When were we ever afraid of them? Don’t worry, once this Sea Tide passes, we must settle the score with them."

"I’ll keep this rune with me first. After I study it and return it to you, is that okay?"

Wu Ying quickly waved his hand and said, "This was meant for you, Mr. Liang."

"Besides, Tian Wei was originally killed by you. I was just lucky to pick it up, so of course, it’s only right to return it to its owner."

Liang Yuan laughed, "If you hadn’t discovered it, we would have missed this rune. You deserve great credit for this."

"When the shopping complex is established, I will reward you with Points."

"Thank you, Mr. Liang, thank you." Wu Ying was immediately excited.

He was well aware that the shopping complex would become the largest trade center in Yangshan in the future.

Currently, the shopping complex had yet to be built, and he had already earned a considerable amount of Points for his contribution.

Liang Yuan smiled, "You have good luck. Go see if there are any other goodies."

Upon hearing this, Wu Ying excitedly nodded and was about to run out.

Liang Yuan suddenly reminded, "Be careful, in case there are any stragglers!"

Wu Ying immediately halted and became a bit more vigilant.

Watching Wu Ying leave, Liang Yuan sighed inwardly.

"It seems that in the future, after killing someone, I must search thoroughly. There might be treasures in the skull."

Liang Yuan shook his head, feeling that he wasn’t professional enough.

He then turned and started searching the supplies in this shelter camp.

The living conditions in this shelter were very poor. Except for the relatively spacious and comfortable cave where Tian Wei lived, the caves of other superpower users were essentially like dog kennels.

These people didn’t take care of their living spaces at all, with trash from their meals everywhere inside.

Even a dog would live better than these people.

Liang Yuan sighed, no wonder the people from Martial King Pavilion turned green with envy when they saw how well decorated his place was.

Most likely, the caves where the superpower users from Martial King Pavilion lived were not much better than the ones in this mining area.

Liang Yuan searched around and found that there wasn’t much food. Most of it consisted of fish and beast meat.

It seemed that these mutant ability users were already accustomed to hunting mutant beasts from the mountain as food.

In addition, Liang Yuan found many plants collected from the mountain in some of the caves.

He gathered all these plants, planning to take them back and have Yang Shenmin, the herbalist, take a look at them.

Since these people were eating these plants, it meant they weren’t immediately deadly.

However, whether they could cause slow poisoning was uncertain, so they had to be taken back for Yang Shenmin to determine.

If it was confirmed that they weren’t toxic and could be used as vegetables,

they could be promoted for cultivation in the future.

These were genuine mutant plants, which couldn’t be compared to the regular vegetables he harvested.

The regular vegetables he harvested couldn’t adapt to the current post-flood world.

But these mutant plants, having survived nature’s elimination, could adapt to the post-flood world and be cultivated to meet people’s vegetable needs.

So, though they seemed insignificant when placed in a corner, they were actually very important.

After searching around, besides these items, the most valuable things in the caves were a large number of superpower stones.

Indeed, almost every cave of the superpower users in this shelter contained piles of superpower stones.

Most were attributeless, with a smaller portion being fire attribute superpower stones.

There was also a small amount of earth attribute superpower stones, which Liang Yuan guessed were the ones mentioned by the military.

"It seems that this mining area not only produces fire attribute superpower stones but also a considerable number of earth attribute superpower stones."

These superpower stones were probably his greatest haul this time.

Liang Yuan estimated roughly that there were nearly eight to nine hundred attributeless superpower stones, over three hundred fire attribute superpower stones, and over three hundred earth attribute superpower stones.

Of course, these were whole stones, each about the size of a fist. As for the smaller, fragmented superpower stones, he didn’t count those.

These were just collected from caves that hadn’t caved in.

In the caves that had collapsed, there were likely still many superpower stones.

Liang Yuan didn’t waste time and started digging up the collapsed rocks with his bare hands, soon unearthing quite a few more superpower stones.

During this process, he naturally encountered several superpower users who weren’t completely dead.

They were buried under the rocks, but their strong life force kept them from dying immediately, so they begged Liang Yuan for help.

Liang Yuan couldn’t bear to see them suffer in such a half-dead state, so he sent them on their final journey.

As for some ordinary people, they had no chance of surviving at all.
