At this moment, Allen's backpack contained more than a dozen snake scales and twenty valuable crystal spikes. The left side of the backpack bulged outwards. Judging from the oval outline, it was definitely not snake scales or crystal spikes. That was another thing Allen had harvested from the python, the heart core. The heart core was another heart of the python, but this heart was completely crystallized. It was like the power furnace of a starship, and the heart core was the essence of the python's entire Origin Energy.
The heart core itself wasn't rare, but any wild beast that could use Origin Energy would gradually form an organ-like crystal in their bodies as they grasped the Origin Energy. They were used to store and drive Origin Energy. This was the heart core. However, the heart core was divided into different sizes. Generally speaking, the larger the heart core, the more Origin Energy it stored, and the purer its quality was.
Humans, and even most intelligent life in the universe, drove their Origin Energy more from engraving and Origin Energy circuits. This was the difference between intelligent life and wild beasts. Wild beasts could not form an engraving, so they could only rely on the heart core. This also determined that the abilities of intelligent life were diverse, while the abilities of wild beasts were relatively single, but purer.
The Crystal Spike Python's heart core was the size of a rugby ball, which was relatively rare. When the heart core was taken out of the python's body, its entire body was sparkling and translucent, emitting a faint purple light, like a high-grade purple cloud jade. There were also natural dark purple lines in the heart core, and the thickest of these crystal threads was even as thick as Allen's little finger. These crystal threads were distributed with sand-sized golden sand, and surging Origin Energy could be extracted from each golden sand.
Snake scales, crystal spikes, heart cores. According to Katherine's estimate, these three items were worth at least 30 million Federation dollars. Among them, the heart core accounted for almost two-thirds of the value. If these items were processed and sold, the price would be even higher.
When Allen heard this number, he was a little suspicious. He had been operating on Planet Heaven for so long, and the Times Silver he brought back had only sold for about 20 million. Now, killing a crystal python was worth 30 million, and there were at least three crystal pythons like this. That was nearly a hundred million! If even the Crystal Thorn Python was so valuable, then Allen could no longer imagine the value of Mother Earth.
After knowing the value of the Crystal Python, even Allen was a little tempted to hunt Mother Earth.
It was like a moving mountain of gold!
Currently, the items in his backpack could not be directly exchanged for military merits, but Allen was not worried about not having enough. He intended to keep the snake scales for himself. As for the Crystal Thorn Core, he would sell it as long as someone wanted to buy it. Even the Federation would be willing to invest in these things, especially the core. Right now, Allen only wanted to return to Castellan Rock base as soon as possible. Apart from taking out these things, he also wanted to meet the others.
Thinking of how he, as the leader of the hunting group, had left the group for so many days, Allen felt rather ashamed. However, he didn't know that Castellan Rock base had already spent six days in the flames of war.
The whistling of high-energy light beams and explosions could be heard everywhere. The only thing that could be smelled was the choking smell of blood and the omnipresent burnt smell. Reina had already smelled enough of this smell. At this moment, the strong smell of blood entered his nose. It came from a corpse that had just laid down at his feet, Red Spear Stark's corpse. The death of this enemy commander meant the true end of the war.
Reina turned around and realized that the battle had lasted for so long, and they could actually last for so long.
Everything was like a miracle.
After Reese returned to the base with the enemy's intelligence, at dusk the next day, when the holly forest was dyed golden by the setting sun, the allied army of Catus and Grai Giants appeared in front of Castellan Rock base. It was a bloody evening, and the enemy who had just arrived at the base didn't even have time to rest. Red Spear Stark directly gave the order to attack.
The Grai Giants acted as vanguards. Without a doubt, they were the most terrifying frontline. When the first Grai Giant crashed into a defensive wall on the east side of the base, the base army, which usually only fought the planet's natives, reacted. Lieutenant Colonel Ned gave the order to counterattack in a hurried and somewhat hesitant voice, thus opening the curtains of the war.
After a few days, Reina still clearly remembered that when all the turrets in the base opened fire crazily, more than half of the giants charged towards the artillery fire. Their bodies exploded into waves of blood under the fierce artillery fire. The hot blood that sprinkled down from the giants melted the snow, forming winding rivers of blood that flowed on the battlefield. The berserk warriors of the Catus stepped on the blood of the giants and their corpses, covering up from behind and attacking again and again.
It was an incomparably arduous battle. During the all-night battle, the beams of light and flames near the base did not stop for a moment. The flames that appeared from the direction of the base could almost illuminate half of the holly forest. Only when the battle lasted from evening to the next day did Stark temporarily withdraw his troops. At this time, hundreds of corpses from both sides had been left outside the base.
Among them, ten of the Grai Giants had died in the first battle, and only three giants had returned to the temporary camp with injuries.
As for Castellan Rock base, apart from the Federation soldiers who had died in battle, all the other hunting groups had suffered losses. Cage's team was the most serious. At that time, a Grai Giant had directly attacked the defensive area they were stationed in, causing all of Cage's team members to die in battle. This was a huge blow to Cage, and at the same time, it buried a deep hatred in his heart.
As time passed, the battle became more and more intense. As the death toll on both sides began to rise, hatred also took root. Both sides gritted their teeth and wanted to eat each other, but no matter which side it was, the enemy's bone was hard enough to swallow.
On the third day of the battle, Reina quietly circled around the enemy's rear with his men. Relying on the accurate information provided by Reese, he knocked out the enemy's material hoarding point in one fell swoop, causing the balance of the war to tilt. Catu warriors or Grai giants had a wide diet and could even eat raw beasts. However, there were wild beasts to fill their stomachs. After the war began, almost all the wild beasts in the holly forest subconsciously avoided this battlefield. After the supplies were destroyed, the outsider alliance could only go hunting in the forest four to five hundred kilometers away if they wanted to replenish their food.
Obviously, this was very unrealistic.
As a result, the Alliance Army could only fight on an empty stomach. Without a doubt, the Catus were very brave on the battlefield. However, their appetite was as big as their stature, and the Grai Giants were even more so. In the face of a shortage of food, the Alliance Army's offensive began to weaken. This was undoubtedly great news for the human side of Castellan Rock base.
With the cooperation of the army and the hunting squad, the human camp began to counterattack, actively organizing attacks and constantly weakening the enemy's strength. Finally, today, under the cover of the base's army, a group of experts led by Reina pierced through the enemy's defensive line, penetrated deep into the middle of the army, and killed Red Spear Stark in one fell swoop. When Stark's corpse, which had been struck by the bone-piercing warhammer, was lifted high, the morale of the Catus was greatly reduced.
Without Stark's overall command, no matter how brave the Catus were, they were nothing more than scattered sand. In addition, the morale of the army was shaken and their fighting spirit was depressed. The Federation army took the opportunity to sweep through them, causing them to retreat step by step. On the other hand, the remaining two Grai giants were quite ferocious. They crazily intercepted the Federation army and died at the hands of Regis and Belmore in the end.
When the remnants of the enemy retreated into the forest, the war that had lasted for several days finally came to an end. At this time, even Reina was exhausted physically and mentally. After returning to the base, he washed his body and fell asleep. He slept until the next morning before waking up with a quilt in his arms.
Opening the curtains, he looked at the pockmarked battlefield outside the base. When the Federation soldiers were still cleaning the battlefield, Reina still felt as if he was in a dream. He pinched his thigh hard and was sure that this was not a dream. The battle was already over.
Today, the restaurant was exceptionally deserted, especially in the dining area where experts from various clans were served. There were only a few people in the dining area. Among them, Regis occupied a table and was sweeping through the food on the table. Reina also joined the sweep. Regis only raised his head to look at him and continued to eat silently. At the height of the war, they didn't even have time to eat. They all squeezed a mouthful of nutrients into their mouths and pounced on the position.
Now that there was plenty of time, naturally no one wanted to continue eating nutrients. Only after eating all the food on the table did Regis pat his stomach and exhale in satisfaction. Reina asked, "What about the other two?"
'"Belmore and Reese went to scout early in the morning. They wanted to know where the remnants of the enemy retreated to. Perhaps they could find the enemy's headquarters. As for Lucy, you know, His Highness hasn't had much of an appetite recently. " Regis sat up straight and frowned, "There's still no news of Allen. It's really worrying."
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the restaurant. Reina frowned and saw that the crowd outside the door was moving, as if they were watching something. Suddenly, Ned's voice rang out, "Get out of my way. The general is here. What a scandal."
The lieutenant colonel drilled through the crowd and divided the onlookers into two sides. There were a few people behind Ned, and when the lieutenant colonel turned sideways, two black and white ponytails crashed into Reina's and the others' eyes.
Catherine!
Regis rubbed his eyes. It was indeed Reaper Catherine who was walking behind Reina. She was dressed in a neat general's uniform, and the silver Federation General Star on her shoulder shone brightly under the lights of the restaurant. Behind Catherine, her adjutant and a few guards followed. They looked at the people in the restaurant coldly.
Reina suddenly stood up and stood in front of Catherine. "General Catherine, why are you here?" He said in a deep voice.
Catherine raised her eyebrows and said, "Is there anything wrong? I passed by Castellan Rock base and made the necessary supplies. Do I have to report this to Bescot? "
