Chapter 336 Ice Crystal
"That is........"
Seeing the shimmering ice crystals on the ground, Xini's pupils widened for a moment, then she hurriedly looked at her waist bag and found that one of her ice crystals was missing.
If she wasn't mistaken, the piece that had fallen to the ground was the one from her fanny pack.
At this moment, after discovering the ice crystal, the snow zombies stared at it intently, like wolves discovering juicy meat.
good chance! ! !
Just as Xini was trying to take advantage of the snow zombies being distracted and escape, the snow zombies picked up the ice crystals and looked at him again.
Clearly, this means they want more...
Xini glanced at her fanny pack and found she had two or three coins left. She quickly took them out, ready to throw them at the snow zombies.
But at that moment, she came up with a plan.
"Can you help me get rid of the wolf pack?"
"I'll give you this!"
She pointed to the ice crystal in her hand, then to the pack of wolves outside, her meaning clear.
However, the snow zombie seemed to be rather simple-minded and didn't understand her meaning at all. It just stared at the ice crystal in her hand, and even had the idea of snatching it.
"Damn it!"
As the snow zombies surrounded her, Xini felt like she was talking to a brick wall for the first time. Just when she was at her wit's end, a sharp voice came from the side.
"Their brains are frozen solid; there's no point in talking to them!"
The sudden sound caught the attention of Sini and Celie. They turned around and discovered a creature that made them scream.
"what!!!!"
"So ugly!!!"
With a bat-like face and bright red wings, anyone who saw it would scream. Calling it ugly would be an understatement. One look at it almost made Xini lose her grip and fall off the tree.
This sight made Qingfu's face darken.
"Humans are so rude! Has no one ever told you not to comment on other people's appearance?"
As the blue bat flapped its wings, it gripped its steel fork tightly, barely suppressing the urge to shove the fork into their nostrils.
If they dare to mock me again, I'll show them the power of the Azure Bat Supreme...
"I'm sorry..."
Xini is now in a dangerous situation and dares not offend anyone else. Moreover, this demi-human in front of her seems to be able to communicate with her, which is much better than the wolf pack and the snow zombie.
"Excuse me, sir, who are you...?"
"I am Bruce Wayne, the richest man in Gotham. You can call me Mr. Wayne, or you can call me by my nickname..."
"Batman."
Xini didn't seem to recognize who Batman was. Looking at the smug Blue Bat, she couldn't help but ask anxiously:
"Okay, Mr. Batman, um... could you please let them leave?"
Xini pointed to the snow zombies surrounding them on the ground. She had just noticed that the snow zombies had stopped attacking ever since the Batman started talking to them.
Perhaps... there's still a chance for things to turn around?
"of course can!"
The Blue Bat's certain tone filled Xini with joy, but before she could thank him, the Blue Bat continued:
"But I want this one!"
The blue bat pointed to Xini's hand, where the ice crystal that had previously attracted the attention of the snow zombies was shimmering.
He wants this too...
Xini paused for a moment, but quickly recovered and readily agreed to Qingfu's request.
"of course can."
Ice crystals are a rare type of crystal found on the frozen land. Of course, although they are relatively rare, they are not as scarce as one might imagine, otherwise it would not be possible for a girl from a small tribe to possess them.
Trading these few ice crystals for their lives would be a sure win, but... she seems to have underestimated the greed of these demi-humans.
"No, no, no, I think you've misunderstood. What I need isn't these few ice crystals. If you want to save your lives, you have to give me..."
"One thousand ice crystals."
"How can this be!!!"
Xini immediately screamed. Although there were many ice crystals in this land, they were not something that could be obtained at will. Due to the special nature of ice crystals, they were also a kind of war reserve resource, and various races and countries would control them.
She had a few coins, which her older sister had given her before she left. It was impossible for her to produce 1000 coins now.
"I......"
"You have no right to say no."
Seeing Xini trying to argue with him, Qingfu suddenly grinned wickedly. Don't be fooled by his previous polite conversation with Xini; if she dared to refuse his request, he would absolutely not let her leave unscathed.
Xini clearly noticed this as well, and her expression darkened as she looked at the snow zombies that had surrounded her.
"Sure... but I need some time... I can't raise that much in a short time..."
“No problem, you can go out and raise the money first, but your sister has to stay behind as a hostage.”
"you!"
"I told you, you have no right to refuse."
Seeing the furious Xini, Qingfu felt a pang of anxiety. In a one-on-one fight, he might not be a match for Xini. If this weren't their territory, he would have already made a run for it.
"Sister, I'm fine..."
Perhaps noticing Xini's hesitation, young Xili suddenly spoke up sensibly.
“Ciri, you…”
"Okay, sister, I'm fine..."
Xili stopped her sister from finishing her advice. Despite her young age, she had the composure of an adult in the face of danger.
"Mr. Batman... take me away... and then... let my sister leave."
Xili was lifted up by Qingfu. When Qingfu grabbed her, her body trembled slightly. It seems that she was still a child after all and did not act as calmly as she thought.
“Cili…”
Seeing this, Xini's heart tightened, and she almost couldn't help but snatch Xili back from Qingfu's hands.
However, Celina's disapproving gaze brought her to her senses. She knew that now was not the time to act impulsively. Hesitating here would only lead to the deaths of both sisters.
"I will come to save you, I promise..."
After firmly telling her sister these words, Xini jumped down from the tree and was escorted by the snow zombies away from the unforgettable forest.
