I am in a strange world, a summoner of mythical beasts

Chapter 22: First Visit to the Star Rift

Ji Wei spent an entire night reading the book "Encyclopedia of World Treasures".

The author of this book is like a natural treasure hunter. He knows every treasure very well, including its location and value.

This book seems to be written specifically for people like Ji Wei who know nothing about the treasures in the cracks.

……

Outside a small bungalow in Kaiyuan Pass.

"Dong dong dong."

Ji Wei knocked on the laboratory door.

With a creak, the door opened.

Qin Rou looked a little tired, with dark circles under her eyes, and it was obvious that she hadn't slept all night.

"come in."

After Qin Rou finished speaking, she returned to the operating table and continued the experiment.

The laboratory environment is simple, but the equipment is very complete. There is a black stone on the operating table.

The stone contains a dark purple starry sky vortex, which sparkles with magical light and looks very beautiful.

"Is this the star mine?" Ji Wei murmured to himself.

"That's the star ore that hasn't been refined." Qin Rou walked over, holding a silver pill in her hand.

"This is for you. Use it for self-defense." She handed the silver pill to Ji Wei.

This silver pill is only slightly larger than a soybean and looks similar to the one used in class.

But when you hold it in your hand, the feedback from your mental reaction is different.

It is slightly heavier than that one, and the mental power integrated into it is as refreshing as a fish returning to water, and it can be used instantly.

The previous one was not so smooth, at least not as good as this soybean-sized silver pill.

"What is this?" Ji Wei was a little confused.

"This is made of refined star ore. The purity is higher than the one used in class, and it is more compatible with mental power. It can be used instantly within 0.5 seconds." Qin Rou explained while holding a bun in her hand.

"So that's how it is. Teacher Qin, what exactly is star mine?" Ji Wei asked his doubts.

She heard the name of Star Mine twice in this day and a half. Judging from the reaction of the guy with glasses yesterday, it can be seen that it is very important.

Ji Wei specifically looked for information about "Star Mine" last night, but it only appeared in the book "Treasure Encyclopedia".

The book says that star ore is extremely rare and priceless, and exists deep in the star element cracks. If you don't have A-level strength or above, you must not go in. Other than that, there is no other record.

"Star ore only exists in Star Yuan Cracks. It is a substance that has never existed on the Blue Star. Currently, star ore only appears deep in Star Yuan Cracks. Where it is born, there is a place similar to a crater, where gas condenses and forms crystals, which are star ore.

"We know too little about it. We only know that it can be used to make flying swords and silver pills. Don't underestimate this silver pill. It is small in size but has great lethality. Sometimes the least noticeable things can turn the tide on the battlefield."

"Unfortunately, we have too few star ores. There is not enough for experiments, let alone large-scale production. If there were enough star ores, the combat effectiveness of the awakened ones might be greatly improved."

This is just a delusion. Star mines only appear deep in the cracks, which is too dangerous.

Thinking of this, Qin Rou sighed.

She has been studying star minerals for two years, but apart from knowing that it can be used to create spiritual weapons, she has not achieved any other results.

She subconsciously always felt that star mines should have other uses. If other uses could be found, perhaps China would not be so passive.

“Remember, if you find unformed star ore in a Star Essence Rift, you must not touch it with your mental power! Unformed star ore is very unstable and can be detonated by just a tiny bit of mental power. Its power can at least seriously injure a C-level awakener.” Qin Rou’s expression was very serious.

Ji Wei silently kept this in mind.

"It's getting late, let's get ready to go." Qin Rou glanced at her watch and swallowed the last bite of bun.

……

Outside the laboratory, a handsome military jeep drove towards this side.

With a handsome turn, it stopped.

"Get in the car." Qin Rou shouted.

Kaipingguan is some distance away from the crack, so it is most convenient to drive there.

After half an hour of bumpy journey, Ji Wei finally arrived at her destination.

In front of us is a checkpoint guarded by many soldiers of the Demon-Suppressing Army.

This is a long city wall. A soldier is standing at the archway under the wall. On the wall, many demon-suppressing soldiers are hiding in the shadows and watching this side closely.

There is a machine in front of the arch for identity verification.

Before the two got close, they were stopped.

"Stop, who are you?" the soldier guarding the gate stopped them.

"Qin Rou." Qin Rou took out a work ID.

Qin Rou on her work ID card was wearing a white coat and looked very young.

The soldier took it and swiped it on the machine, and Qin Rou's identity information appeared on the screen.

"Second Lieutenant Qin." The soldier saluted. "Who is she?"

The soldier pointed at Ji Wei behind him.

"This is my student. Master Jiang gave it to me." Qin Rou took out an ordinary, even somewhat rusty dagger.

The soldier saw this and became respectful.

He looked at the dagger carefully and found that it was indeed Master Jiang's.

The soldier let him go without saying a word.

He didn't know why someone who wasn't even at F-rank was allowed into the rift, but he knew that Grandmaster Jiang's orders were correct.

To the Demon-Suppressing Army, Grandmaster Jiang is like a flag that always stands tall.

……

Led by Qin Rou, Ji Wei passed through a lookout and came to a place full of fog.

As the two walked deeper and deeper, the fog became thicker and thicker. When they reached the deepest point, everything three meters away was blurry.

"Use your mental strength to protect yourself." Qin Rou, who was walking in front, reminded.

Ji Wei did as he was told and controlled his mental power to wrap himself up without leaving any gaps.

After doing all this, she felt a little uneasy and added two more layers of shields.

The two walked for an unknown amount of time before finally reaching the deepest part of the fog.

In front of them, there was a crack in the void.

The crack was about two meters long, and black evil energy was gushing out from it. The evil energy around it was like waves surging in the wind.

The closer you get there, the greater the influence of the evil spirit will be.

Ji Wei, who had taken three layers of protection, felt a little uncomfortable.

Soon, the two arrived in front of the crack.

A powerful suction force sucked Ji Wei into the crack.

She subconsciously wanted to resist, but she heard Qin Rou's voice in her mind.

"Don't resist."

Hearing this, she gave up resisting and allowed the crack to suck her in.

Ji Wei came to a passage made up of stars, and she felt as if she was in the starry sky. She was attracted by the stars and reached out to touch them.

Before she could touch it, the world spun around and Ji Wei finally landed on the ground.

The Star Fissure was not as scary as she thought.

The evil spirit that was everywhere disappeared here. The ground under the feet was black, and the sky was still in a state of polar night like the outside world.

At this moment, Ji Wei was standing in a wilderness. There were no plants in sight, only a dead tree.

It's so quiet here, there's not even a sound of wind.
