Chapter 499 The Walking Treasures

Author: M_W Cancer

It was only in the afternoon when Leo and everyone finally arrived at a location only a few hundreds of meters away from the Treasure Beetle Mountain; they decided to call the mountain where the Treasure Beetle lives at as Treasure Beetle Mountain in order for them to easily differentiate this mountain from the other mountains, and in the case of the Storm Sparrow they call the place they live at as Storm Sparrow Tree.

In front of them is a massive and tall mountain, specifically around tens of kilometers huge and hundreds of feet tall. They could see plenty of holes around this mountain, which should lead to the location of the Treasure Beetle\'s actual base.

Their distance right now is a place enough for them to see the mountain while at the same time not getting their location compromised.

Unfortunately, only Charlotte and Chief Lago could see clearly the Treasure Beetles on the Treasure Beetle Mountain from such a far distance. While the others were only able to see a vague figure moving around the mountain. It\'s even a lot more worst for Leo as he could only see the mountain.

Even so, Leo doesn\'t mind it at all. He had long already expected that a time like this would eventually come, especially considering that he\'s with people with a cultivation level far higher than his own. And besides, it\'s not like there would be no other time for him to see a Treasure Beetle. As of now, the most important thing to do was to observe the behavior of the Treasure Beetles and find out the reason why they aren\'t fighting anymore with the Storm Sparrows.

Elvis turned to look at Nightingale before asking, "Can you get closer to the Treasure Beetle Mountain without getting discovered?"

"I could," Nightingale replied, but he added, "But how close exactly do you need me to be?"

Although Nightingale can use the Dark Element, it still doesn\'t necessarily mean that he won\'t get discovered. If the target would be people like them, then he can sure guarantee that it would be difficult discovering him even in their effective range. But in the case of the Magical Beasts, especially as powerful as the Treasure Beetles, it would not be strange if he gets discovered the moment he stepped inside their effective range. Once that happens, his only choice is to escape to another location until the Treasure Beetles decides not to chase him anymore before he could finally return back to Mister Loki and the other\'s location. Of course, that\'s understandable, but if a situation comes up where they needed him, he won\'t be able to lend them a hand since he\'s busy escaping from the Treasure Beetles.

"As close as possible," Elvis said, he then explained, "I want you to lure out as many Treasure Beetles as possible away from this place,"

"Oh," Nightingale finally understood what Elvis wanted him to do. To be more precise, he wanted him to reduce the numbers of Treasure Beetles outside the Treasure Beetle Mountain so that it would minimize their effective range, or in this situation, it\'s called perimeter, hence allowing them to get more closer to the mountain. As for what exactly is Elvis planning to do after that, he has no idea, and he also doesn\'t need to worry about it because his important job is to simply lure the Treasure Beetles away and not get accidentally killed.

"By the way, I want you to proceed towards the direction of the Storm Sparrow Tree," Elvis quickly reminded.

Without any hesitation, Nightingale nodded his head in understanding as he then quickly left to execute his given task.

Elvis\'s plan is fairly simple. By luring the Treasure Beetles towards the direction of the Storm Sparrow Tree, Nightingale would be able to see what the two Magical Beast\'s reaction once they meet with each other. Would they immediately start fighting with each other? Or would they just mind their own business? Considering how they treated each other as enemies in the past, they should immediately fight with each other once they meet. But if they just minded their own business, then it would easily answer their question; the Treasure Beetles and the Storm Sparrows had indeed agreed to live peacefully with one another.

Thinking of what to do next would become simple after finding out the answer.

And while Nightingale was busy with that, Elvis informed Mister Loki and the others that they will move closer to the Treasure Beetle Mountain once Nightingale executes his task in order for them to observe the Treasure Beetle closely. This was another matter, as this would allow them to find the weaknesses of the Treasure Beetles and hopefully find a way to catch them through this.

After waiting for ten minutes or so, a large group of Treasure Beetles could finally be seen flying towards the south, implying that Nightingale has finally begun with his task.

As soon as they saw that, Leo and the others didn\'t waste any time as they immediately moved to get closer towards the Treasure Beetle Mountain. Of course, with caution and as quiet as possible. After all, there are still plenty of Treasure Beetles around the Treasure Beetle Mountain.

After a few minutes, everyone could finally see how the Treasure Beetles look like.

Just like its name, the Treasure Beetles has the form of a normal beetle. They have a single or two horns on either the top or both sides of their head and have 6 legs, specifically 3 legs at each of its sides. There is a straight cut located at their back, which covers their wings and would spread to both their sides whenever they want to fly.

The only difference between a normal beetle and the Treasure Beetle though is their huge size, specifically, they have an average size of 20 meters long and 10 feet high, and that they are covered by different kinds of stones, like for example gold, diamond, ruby, sapphire, emerald, and whatsoever, around their entire body, which is definitely the reason why they have the name \'Treasure\'.

"Do you know, the Treasure Beetles are actually also known as Walking Treasures. They carry precious stones, ores, and minerals around their body, which we can harvest by cutting them off from their body. There\'s also another method to harvest those precious materials, which is by simply waiting until all of those materials become heavy enough or are troublesome for them to carry around their body. At that time, they would let go of those precious materials themselves, and start creating a new batch of them," Elvis began explaining more information about the Treasure Beetles. He continued, "You definitely don\'t know this, the Evergreen royal family actually has a farm with hundreds of Treasure Beetles. And those Treasure Beetles are the sources of crafting materials for their Craftsmen. Very convenient, right?"

"Indeed," Leo nodded his head in agreement. The Treasure Beetles are basically like an unlimited source of precious materials. As long as they are alive, they would keep on growing precious materials, which one could use in many different ways. Like, for example, making weapons, armors, equipment, and tools. To have such means to collect precious materials is indeed very convenient to have. In fact, calling it \'Convenient\' might even sound like an understatement to it, the appropriate way to call it should be, \'Fortunate\', because whoever has them would have an unlimited source of luck in terms of precious materials.

"What\'s, even more, best about these Treasure Beetles is the fact that they will start producing Magic Iron, Magic Gold, and such kinds of Magical resources once they break through and become a Beast Lord. Just imagine having an unlimited supply of those kinds of Magical resources, you definitely would no longer have to worry about money in your lifetime," Elvis added. In the next moment, though, he let out a sigh as he said, "Nevertheless, it\'s very unfortunate as it\'s next to impossible to get ourselves a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs. They don\'t even appear on the market because the people that have them would either use it for themselves or sell it to the Evergreen royal family and to the Major Noble Households of the Emerald Tree Kingdom,"

Hearing Elvis\' words, Leo immediately became excited. Right now, they are in front of a mountain full of Treasure Beetles, meaning to say finding a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs here would be one hundred percent possible.

"Everyone, I have a very interesting special mission to give to all of you," Leo suddenly said.

Charlotte\'s and everyone\'s ears immediately perked up the moment they heard Leo\'s words. In their minds, they could already somewhat expect what it would be.

"Whoever gets a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs would get 20% share out from the precious materials that they will produce," Leo proposed.

A twenty percent share from the precious materials that the Treasure Beetles could produce might sound small, especially if one considers the difficulty and risk of getting a Treasure Beetle\'s eggs from this Treasure Beetle Mountain. After all, there should be at most tens of thousands of Treasure Beetles in this Treasure Beetle Mountain.

However, if one thinks about the fact that the Magical resources used to invest in the Treasure Beetles would entirely come from the Mischievous Lion Guild. Having a twenty percent share from the precious materials that they produce is totally worth it.

Charlotte and the others were also able to easily understand this point, so they didn\'t hesitate to accept this special mission.
