Chapter 71: Chapter 71 Jedi Knight

"Pa Shan, why aren’t you taking anything?" Shale observed that Pa Shan remained still, taking nothing, and couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"I want to leave my share for Kun Sha. To stabilize the situation in Tyrone City, he can surely make use of these items." Pa Shan replied.

"Foolish, he doesn’t want us to take anything. Li Xiu, what else do you want?" Shale cursed under his breath and continued to loot the place, his large backpack, procured from who knows where, almost filled to the brim.

"These suffice for me." Li Xiu shook his head; there weren’t many things here that interested him. This Ghost Mask already met his current needs.

He had never lacked money, so he didn’t have much desire for it.

Li Xiu didn’t take anything, and A Fei only took a few gemstones before stopping.

"Damn, you all are saints, while I’m the villain. If you don’t take, I’ll take it myself." Shale cursed as he stuffed his bag with items.

"I’m leaving first, see you around if fate permits." Qin Shi packed up a Ruby, ready to leave.

"Want to make some extra?" Li Xiu suddenly called out to Qin Shi.

"Are you trying to hire me?" Qin Shi looked Li Xiu up and down, laughing, "But you don’t seem like a wealthy person, and besides, I don’t need money, I only want the top-grade Rubies."

"There are quite a few Ruby Mines in Tyrone City. Once Kun Sha governs Tyrone City, he shouldn’t mind sharing a part with you." Li Xiu said.

The current situation in Tyrone City is not only internally troubled with economic collapse but also externally threatened by other Southern Cross Alliance cities, which requires a strong Magic Armor Master to maintain order. Kun Sha, an S-grade Magic Armor Master, isn’t enough.

"Seems to make a bit of sense. Let’s wait for Kun Sha to come back and talk then, see what price he offers; I’m quite expensive." Qin Shi, ever sharp, immediately understood Li Xiu’s implication.

"You can discuss it when he returns." Li Xiu said.

Kun Sha hadn’t returned. After packing all the valuables, they left the Vault and found a place to rest.

This place was where Qin Shi originally lived, a large three-story building which previously housed only Qin Shi.

The first floor had a hall, kitchen, and bath facilities; the second floor, a gym; and the third, over a dozen luxuriously decorated suites.

Pa Shan went out to find Kun Sha and returned to inform Li Xiu of the dire situation in Tyrone City.

A large number of residents were queuing at the Gemstone shops to exchange Tyrone coins for gemstones, but all major Gemstone shops were closed, refusing any exchange.

Several Gemstone shops had been smashed by angry residents; things were bound to get messier, and it was uncertain if Kun Sha could stabilize the situation.

The branch offices of the Gemstone shops from other cities in Tyrone City had already ceased exchanges of Tyrone coins and other currencies, clearly abandoning Tyrone City, and might even want to kick them while they’re down.

Kun Sha went to Sha Chu’s house with his men but didn’t find her there; she likely had already left Tyrone City.

"The Eternal Sky group is indeed ruthless; they want to destroy the entire Tyrone City." Qin Shi sighed.

It wasn’t just Qin Shi; they all suspected Sha Chu was part of Eternal Sky. Apart from them, they couldn’t think of any organization capable of pulling off such ruthlessness.

Returning to his room, Li Xiu took out that Red Apatite and played with it between his fingers.

He searched on his phone for information about Apatite. As Shale mentioned, Namiya Jedi Knight Apatite is indeed top-notch among Apatites.

Common Namiya Apatites contained many inclusions and were generally small. Before the magic spirit descended, even sub-carat Namiya Jedi Knight ones could fetch several thousand dollars, and two- to three-carat ones could start in the five-figure range.

This one weighed over 11 carats. If auctioned, it would fetch an astronomical price.

Li Xiu wasn’t concerned about its value; he was contemplating whether to consume it or not.

The Demon Core he had on him was already one less; Li Xiu was certain there was something wrong with his body, though he couldn’t yet determine if it was good or bad.

So far, his body hadn’t shown any negative effects, still being very healthy.

Li Xiu even vaguely felt his physique had improved, though not as obviously as the enhancement rewards from the Trial Gate.

"Since it’s already like this, one more or less doesn’t matter. Let’s see what effect this Gemstone has on me." Li Xiu put the Gemstone in his mouth, trying to bite it.

He couldn’t bite through it, nor did he taste anything pleasant.

Li Xiu could only grit his teeth and swallow the Gemstone down.

Even if it couldn’t be digested, he could take a laxative the next day to expel it from his system, so there was no worry about it harming his body.

With the Apatite in his stomach, Li Xiu kept feeling for any changes within his body, hoping to find some clues.

For a while, there was no reaction, just as Li Xiu thought there would be no outcome, a sudden sharp pain emanated from his stomach, causing Li Xiu to clutch his abdomen, curling up in agony.

He felt something flowing in his body towards his stomach, cramps causing him to twitch, sweat soaking through his entire outfit.

"Damn it!" Li Xiu couldn’t help but curse under his breath. The pain was unbearable, driving him to the brink of wanting to cut open his stomach to retrieve the Apatite.

Suppressing the pain, Li Xiu got up to fetch his Demon Armor.

The Fire Lotus Sword still coiled around his waist; without donning the Demon Armor, he could hardly walk. He intended to put on the Demon Armor and find Qin Shi, ask her to perform an abdominal surgery to remove the Apatite.

Li Xiu’s outstretched fingers hadn’t yet reached the Demon Armor when he suddenly felt something moving from his stomach, burrowing out, swiftly making its way through his tissues and bones towards his arm.

Li Xiu even saw a bulge moving beneath his skin, arriving at his fingertip in the blink of an eye.

The pinky finger’s skin stretched into a ring-like bulge.

In the next second, a pink radiance seeped from beneath the skin. The bulging skin gradually returned to normal, and the pink light converged on his finger, forming a strongly luminescent red Gemstone Ring.

The entire ring was made of Namiya Jedi Knight Apatite, though Red Apatite itself doesn’t glow. This Sharp Crystal Ring emitted a strong pink fluorescence like a Fluorescent Stick wrapped around his finger.

In no time, the ring’s glow dimmed, returning to its original appearance, while some strange information appeared in Li Xiu’s mind.

Jedi Knight (Upgradeable): E-level magic spirit, capable of summoning an E-level magic spirit, Jedi Knight.
