《Me! Zombie! Summoned to Another World!》Chapter 30: Fluorite Vein
Advertisement
In order to get out of danger as soon as possible, I had to keep moving in the same direction.
Forward!
My idea was very simple. This way, I could quickly get away from the mountain goblin pursuers that might be behind me andI could also ensure that I didn't lose my way.
Unfortunately, the direction of this underground world was too complicated, and every once in a while, one or two forks would appear.
In addition, I was in a hurry and didn't remember the direction carefully. After I've gone through an unknown amount of fork paths, I finally realized that I had lost my way.
I looked at the forks before me. I supported my knees and panted heavily.
"Damn, why do all the forks look exactly the same?"
After running non-stop for dozens of minutes, I really couldn't run anymore. In addition, I didn't hear the sound of mountain goblins chasing after me for a long time. I decided to rest for a while and take a break.
Sitting at the edge of the forked road, I looked at Regulus beside me.
I thought to myself, I was only focused on running and didn't pay attention to how many intersections I had run and what route I had chosen.
I had originally planned to return by the same route, but now it was over. I didn't know when I would be able to find my way out!
I didn't know how long I would have to stay in this underground world...
I still didn't know if this underground world was dangerous...
"Roar --"
Just as I was still thinking if this underground world was dangerous, an angry roar woke me up from my thoughts.
"Roar --"
Following that, another angry roar sounded.
After hearing this voice clearly, I was stunned.

This! ?
This voice, wasn't it...
Wasn't this voice the same voice that sounded every night when I was still living in the small wooden house?
From the moment I heard this voice, I knew that the owner of this voice was extremely powerful, and the warning was also extremely powerful.
Previously, I didn't hear it for a while. I thought that the owner of the voice had disappeared or left.
I didn't expect that I would hear this voice again after coming to the underground world.
After hearing this voice, I was first stunned, and then I was shocked.
Because when I was outside, I had seen that this voice had caused almost no animals to appear in the entire forest.
I wanted to see if Regulus still had the zombie function after being modified. In the end, I only found one lizard.
All the animals in the entire forest disappeared because of this sound... It was obvious how powerful this sound was.
The owner of this sound must be a dangerous magical animal. It might even be as dangerous as a dragon.
Judging from this voice, the distance between this creature and me shouldn't be too far. And from the sounds coming from behind, the voice seemed to be getting closer and closer.
'I can't stay here anymore.'
I immediately realized that if I continued to stay here, some unknown dangers might occur.
Although I hadn't rested well, I still stood up and prepared to continue running.
I would be no match for the owner of this voice even if the knight King was still around.
In order to prevent myself from getting lost too deeply, this time, I deliberately chose a direction: the direction behind me.
And every time I made a turn, I would only enter from the right intersection...

This way, I could at least guarantee that I wouldn't get more and more lost.
Just like that, I passed through ten intersections in a row and arrived at an open field.
I looked at the surrounding terrain, and it didn't seem like there were any ferocious beasts roaming around. In addition, I almost had no rest along the way, so I decided to sit down and rest for a period of time.
"Puchi... Puchi..."
As I panted, I calculated where I had arrived.
If I wanted to go up, which direction should I go.
After a while, I felt that I should be near the mountain where the mountain goblins lived.
The difference between left and right shouldn't be more than half a mile.
In order to let Regulus release that extraordinary fireball spell, I had used almost all of my magic crystal stones.
As a result, Regulus no longer had a 'battery' and urgently needed to charging.
There should be a magic crystal stone vein nearby. I need to look for it carefully.'
I looked at the surrounding terrain, trying to find the location of the magic crystal stone vein.
Then, I thought about how magic crystal stone vein were usually hidden in the mountains, so I went to look for a nearby cave.
After about three hours, I almost searched through all the nearby caves.
I had finally found it...
Looking at the cave that was emitting seven-colored rays of light, my heart was filled with joy.
According to the [ Records of The Nolan Continent ] , the accompanying ore of magic crystal stones: Fluorite Stone. It was a type of mineral that could emit seven-colored rays of light in the dark.
A mineral like fluorite stone definitely had magic crystal stones nearby.
Finding such an ore meant that I wasn't far from magic crystal stones.
I slowly walked into the cave in front of me and looked at these dazzling ores. My heart was filled with excitement.
Fluorite stones were not only associated with magic crystal stones, they were also a very expensive gemstone and luxury item in human society. Most importantly, they were one of the materials used by necromancers to create powerful undead minions.
However, I could get as much as I wanted of such a precious material right now.
I'm not even going to take the bad quality ones.
If any human knew about my current situation, they would probably be extremely jealous.
Just like that, I collected high-quality fluorite while searching for magic crystals that might exist in the fluorite.
One piece...
Two...
Three... Hmm, this one's shape is a little ugly. I don't want it.
It was as if I was going to pick out a bone from an egg as I carefully selected it.
However, just as I wasn't paying attention, danger arrived once again.
"Ka-la... Ka-la..."
The fluorescent stone behind me that I said was a little ugly seemed to move.

Balancing of the world
Just as humanity reached the height of its power, it fell again. Mana was introduced into a previously balanced world, sending everything present into chaos. Humanity losing its technological advantages, fell back to the dark ages, back to when survival was all but guaranteed. Mana though useful for enhancing the body isn’t unlimited, and humanity fell behind fast. From experiments, a being of mana, born into this chaotic world. The first of its kind. Rather than thriving in a world to which it belongs, it has to model the world so it will suit its needs. As a lone being, it has to use its power over mana to influence beasts and humans alike to abide by its will and further its goals. It will manipulate intelligent lifeforms to do its bidding while believing that they are becoming stronger. It will help lower lifeforms and guide their lives until they fit into the world as envisioned by our being. Read how our protagonist starts in a small area, changing it to suit its needs, and then grows until the world is balanced and at peace again. This is my first story, and I don’t have an editor yet. My English should be good enough, but I expect to have to go back and do editing later on. I would classify this story as litRPG. There will be a type of system with blue boxes and all, though the perspective is the system itself and how it came to be and why it does what it does. As a single mighty being, there will be dungeon core influences such as expanding the area and influencing all within though there is no such thing as an actual dungeon. As humanity is trying to survive, there will also be some city/base building influences, and I will have some perspective changes to show how the forces are being perceived by the affected people. As I have a busy job, it will be hard to update consistently, but I am quite a bit ahead of what I have currently uploaded.
