“Please go back?” Dick snorted. “Everyone from Gale Wind Island, please go back!” He looked coldly at the ostentatious people above and announced, “We’ve found this Magic Stone Mine first, and we have eliminated all the threats. It naturally belongs to the Nicholas family!”

Feng Da’s gaze focused on Dick. Many things flashed in his eyes. He pretended to be calm and said, “You’re Dick, right? Young man, you’re too arrogant. Just a mere person like you, … are you representing the Nicholas family?”

“What Dick has said represents what the Nicholas family says!” Zoro also expressed his stance at this moment. “Senior Feng Da, we have been working on this Magic Stone Mine all this while, if the Gale Wind Island wants to snatch it openly, the Nicholas family clan will entertain you all!”

Upon hearing the tough stance of Dick, Zoro, and the others, the group of Great Archmagi behind them were both happy and shocked. They were also worried. As for the ten plus people from the Gale Wind Island, their eyes were ferocious.

“The Nicholas family? Eh!”

“They have only risen in ten or more years… They really don’t know their place!”

“Their entire family only has four Divine Magi. How dare they go against Gale Wind Island?”

“They’re simply overestimating their capabilities!”

“Your Nicholas family cannot swallow such a huge Magic Stone Mine!”

The Great Archmagi behind Feng Da mocked one after another. Feng Da’s expression was also dark as he stared coldly at Zoro and Dick. At this moment, Dick and Zoro were still circulating the second transformation of the Skyfiend Three Transformations. They both emitted the powerful aura of a level-3 Divine Mage and confronted the people from the Gale Wind Island coldly.

Faced with the pressure of the Divine Mage realm, the Great Archmagi present no longer said anything and waited to see what would happen. In the quiet moment, all the Great Archmagi could not help but tense up… Should they fight?

“Ga..”

At this moment, a roar, which had many mixed sounds, suddenly could be heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects, which had been like a fortress earlier, was now in ruins. There was a huge golden shadow in the ruins, and its nine python heads were roaring at the sky. The powerful aura it emitted was clearly that of a high-grade level-7! Sensing this, the group of Great Archmagi from the Gale Wind Island were all shocked in their hearts and slightly frightened.

Feng Da glanced imperceptibly at the level-7 golden python and caught a glimpse of the large golden sea of flames surrounding it. His pupils were constricted. He had long heard that the Nicholas family had an immortal-tier, sacred flame magical power secret technique. Before he had seen it, he had always thought that these people were spreading rumors, which were exaggerated. Now that he had seen it today, he knew that the rumors were true. He felt that the golden sea of flames was even more dangerous than Dick!

Feng Da retracted his gaze calmly and swept his gaze across the people below. He said coldly, “Your Nicholas family cannot afford to swallow this Magic Stone Mine.”

Zoro smiled and said, “There’s no need for Senior Feng Da to worry!”

The magical power aura on Feng Da’s body changed slightly, and in the next moment, he returned to normal. There was no expression on his face. “Alright, I’ll see how long the Nicholas family can hold out!” As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeve and left. The dozen or so Great Archmagi behind him also left with him. They did not snatch it now.

Seeing the group from the Gale Wind Island fly away, the people who had stopped in their tracks could not help but feel a little relieved. Everyone had a tacit understanding. During this encounter between the two sides, they had not fought only for the time being. If they really fought in the future, it would not be an easy matter. Feng Da and the ten-odd people had left first, and later on, the Gale Wind Island might not let go of this Magic Stone Mine. The ownership of the Magic Stone Mine would depend on the real battle later.

The reason why Feng Da and the others had temporarily retreated was not because they did not want to defeat Dick and the others now and snatch the Magic Stone Mine. However, they only had one Divine Mage now, and the Nicholas family had two Divine Magi and a high-grade level-7 magical beast puppet. If they really fought, they would probably not be able to win.

Dick and the others had similar concerns, so they did not stop the people from the Gale Wind Island from leaving. This exchange was equivalent to two sides fighting a battle without gunfire. After the confrontation, both sides recognized the other party’s attitude toward the Magic Stone Mine.

Initially, Feng Da had used the name of the Gale Wind Island to suppress the Nicholas family. He had wanted to snatch it without a fight. Then, the Nicholas family rejected him sternly, and the battle between the two sides became a battle between the two factions. The two factions would definitely not give the huge Magic Stone Mine up!

Sensing that Feng Da and the others had all left the area, the members of the Nicholas family relaxed a little. They sat cross-legged to regulate the magical power in their bodies and restore their combat state. Dick and Zoro also stopped the circulation of the magical power eruption technique. The two of them returned to normal. Zoro had expended a lot of energy, and Dick, who had an extraordinary body, was in a good state. He still had the energy to fight.

Lotte was very worried. “Zoro, the Gale Wind Island will definitely not give the Magic Stone Mine up. What should we do…”

Zoro said, “Get in touch with the family first and get someone to occupy this place.”

Dick looked at Zoro and said, “Second Grandpa, why don’t you bring some people back to the ground to find Anthony and the others? I’ll stay here to guard.”

Zoro pondered and said, “Alright, be careful!”

After giving some instructions, Zoro led some people back up, and Dick led the remaining Great Archmagi to explore the surroundings. This Magic Stone Mine was extremely vast, and even Dick’s soul power could not finish exploring it. In the future, if they really wanted to mine Magic Stones, the workload would definitely be very heavy. To prevent any accidents, Dick even led people into the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects, which had already been reduced to ruins, to ensure that all the Demonic Devouring Insects had been exterminated.

The ground part of the nest had basically been destroyed, and the underground part was like a maze. The energy had been cut off, and there was no life. The queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects, which had been killed earlier, had completely melted into the earth. For a long while, Dick walked and stopped. He finally found a white stone which was nearly two meters tall—the beast core of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects!

The reason why this beast core of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects was so difficult to find was because this beast core did not emit any demonic aura. When his soul power swept across it, he could only sense it as an ordinary rock. After coming into contact with it, he sensed that there was a huge amount of magical energy inside. The beast core of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects would definitely be able to refine a special sacred weapon!

After putting the beast core away in his Storage Ring, Dick turned around, intending to end the inspection and leave the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects. However, the moment he turned around, his eyebrows suddenly raised slightly, and he turned back! In the previous moment, he had sensed an extremely weak trace of demonic aura. At this moment, he could no longer sense it, but that aura… seemed a little like the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects!!

Could it be that it was not dead?!

This could not be right! He had even kept the beast core of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects. How could it not be dead?! But the feeling just now… should not be wrong. Thinking of this, Dick followed the direction of the aura he had sensed earlier and searched carefully… After a long while, in a corner of a nest that had mostly collapsed, through a gap, he saw a huge egg that was hundreds of meters tall!!

Dick broke through the obstruction of the ruins and went to check out the huge egg that did not have any magical energy fluctuations. He muttered to himself in confusion, “Could it be… the egg of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects?”

He looked around and thought for a while before he came to an understanding. If he was not wrong, this huge egg was nurturing… a queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects!!

The earlier queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects, which was slightly more intelligent, had probably known that it would not be able to escape death, so it had wanted to secretly transport the egg away. However, it died before it could transport it away and hide it. The Demonic Devouring Insects had swallowed magical energy to grow, so the egg should naturally also absorb the surrounding energy. Now that the huge egg had stopped absorbing, it was probably protecting itself. If this huge egg had been swallowed by a magical beast, it would be equivalent to a sacred medicine that could greatly increase its level.

Apart from that, it could also…
