"Indeed, it's Snake Shedding Grass, and its effect is much stronger than typical Snake Shedding Grass."

Quik opened his palm, and sure enough, the wound from just now had completely stopped bleeding, and the wound tingled slightly; it was estimated that it would fully heal in about half a day.

If in the Human World, this kind of Snake Shedding Grass would probably be top-notch material for making Healing Potions. However, there was no talent in the Dragon Nest Beastman Tribe for potion-making, so they could only use it externally like this.

"Not bad, this place needs proper protection to serve as a medicinal herb base in the future."

Austin nodded. He had also seen the effects of the Snake Shedding Grass. With this vast area of Snake Shedding Grass, if his legion were unfortunate to get injured during battles or giant beast hunts, they would have better herbal care.

Moreover, since Snake Shedding Grass has such vigorous regenerative life force, maybe it could serve as the main ingredient, supplemented by other herbs, to realize the method from Austin's previous life of using herbal baths to enhance the strength and physique of Beastmen.

Looking around, the entire large area was covered with gray snake sheddings, and white Snake Shedding Grass was everywhere, so there was no worry about running out of it.

If they could research the method of herbal baths from the past life, it would undoubtedly enhance the strength of the Dragon Nest Legion, especially in this world where the extraordinary manifests.

Calling over some Beastman Warriors to guard this area well, Austin and others continued their exploration.

The cave passage was huge, even Austin's several-meter-tall body didn't feel cramped inside. As they went deeper, passing through the large space of snake sheddings, what followed was a tunnel full of shining white bones.

Large white snake bones silently lay there, skeletal remains scattered everywhere, indicating this was likely a tomb-like resting place for the deceased Giant Snake colony.

Among the gleaming white bones grew some segmented, bone-like unknown plants whose effects were not yet known.

"These plants are indeed uncommon."

Quik crouched in deep thought, snapping a segment of an unnamed plant, causing a crisp snap, which, if not for the leaves on the branches, one might truly mistake for a bone.

"It needs to be studied well to see what the effects are."

The Snake Shedding Grass, which grew among the snake sheddings, had healing and recovery properties, so these unnamed plants growing from the snake bones should have some roles as well.

Austin nodded noncommittally.

This journey, regardless of the Snake Shedding Grass or these unnamed segmented plants, plus the many snake corpses obtained from annihilating the Giant Snake tribe, was already a massive gain for the Dragon Nest Tribe.

However, clearly, these weren't the reasons Austin originally decided to sweep through the dangerous area of the Wet Bone Forest.

Fortunately, as they went deeper, Austin could distinctly feel the increasing density of Water Attribute Magic Power in the air.

His goal was nearing!

"Here it is indeed!"

Having passed the Snake Bone Tomb and through a relatively narrow passage, the scene before them suddenly brightened like turning from darkness to light.

In the dim space ahead, blocks of dark blue stones were embedded in the surrounding walls, flickering with faint light, and the thick Water Attribute Magic Power permeated every corner of the space.

In the foremost area, the soil wall had been dug into a relatively large pit, and blocks of dark blue stones were faintly visible among the soil, hidden in the earth.

This was clearly a vein,

a vein of dark blue unknown Magic Ore, and the output of this vein was not small.

"What are these ores?"

Austin dug out a block of dark blue ore from the soil with his claw, sniffed it, and then directly threw it into his mouth, chewing it in big bites.

It tasted like toasted grain, crunchy.

The ore was directly crushed by sharp teeth and swallowed, Austin felt a gentle magic power gradually spreading from his stomach to his body, while the remnants were also ground and absorbed by his powerful stomach.

A decent taste, but at the same time, there was a metallic taste in his mouth.

"This is Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore."

The former Mercenary Deputy Captain, who had been standing at the rear, spoke, glancing at the dark blue ore with a trace of eagerness in his eyes.

"Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore is the main material for refining Water Pattern Iron. With Water Pattern Iron, you can create Water Attribute Extraordinary Weapons, and if Water Pattern Steel can be refined, it can even directly make Silver Level Extraordinary Weapons. A piece of Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore can be sold for at least ten silver coins, even several dozen, in any part of the Central Earth World!"

No wonder the United Kingdom repeatedly banned merchants from smuggling goods to the Beastman Tribes in the Kawa Great Forest, yet every year, numerous merchants risk danger and enter what is known as the Death Barbaric Land for trade, repeatedly defying the ban, as the resources within the Kawa Great Forest are abundant to such an extent.

Casually clearing a dangerous area can reveal a vein of such enormous value, transporting a single piece of Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore to the Human World would be worth at least ten silver coins. How many pieces of Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore were in this cave?

And beneath the soil of the Wet Bone Forest, which caused the phenomenon of fog enveloping it, how many ores were buried?

That surely was a huge, astronomical number!

At that moment, Gory's heart surged uncontrollably with greed,

but he quickly suppressed the greed in his heart, averting his gaze from the precious Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore.

Right now, the most important thing for himself was to gain trust and acquire the secret technique known as the Beastman Six Techniques. Although the Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore before him was valuable, he did not have the capability to transport the ores on a large scale out of the Kawa Great Forest.

"Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore, containing Water Attribute Magic Power?"

This thought flickered through Austin's mind, no wonder the taste was good.

If, in the future, there were dealings with human merchants, perhaps these could be used to exchange for purchasing some supplies, especially some Extraordinary Weapons.

Bronze Weapons were already regarded as excellent by the Dragon Nest Beastman Soldiers, but recent events had shown that Rodney's Bronze Armor couldn't withstand the attacks of the Giant Snake Leader, and even the painstakingly crafted Bronze Greatsword shattered in a short time.

In the future, when the strength of the Beastman Junior Officers increases, the gap in Extraordinary Weapons will be apparent.

However, if Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore truly had such properties, perhaps it could be given to the goblins to see if they could combine it with Bronze Weapons to craft Extraordinary Weapons.

These thoughts quickly flashed through Austin's mind and were then set aside.

While these matters would benefit the Dragon Nest Tribe, what's most crucial now is to devour enough Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore to advance to the Gold Level!

In the following days, Austin made arrangements and began devouring Water Patterned Magic Iron Ore inside the Giant Snake Cave Valley until the magic power within his body reached its limit and could no longer be absorbed.

Then, Austin fell into slumber.

This slumber,

lasted nearly three months!
