Zhou Wen felt that as a man, there was no need to waste time on trivial matters. However, once he decided to do something, he had to be ruthless. He had to kill his enemy the moment he attacked. If he couldn't kill him, he had to make him feel pain and fear.
From Zhou Wen's point of view, cursing, saying some harsh words, or smashing something to slap someone was meaningless. Even if he captured two people from the bureau and killed them, even if they were branch ministers, it wasn't a big deal to the bureau. They could just replace someone else as the branch minister.
Zhou Wen didn't have the strength to storm into the bureau's lair and destroy it.
An arrogant person like Ják had been imprisoned by the bureau for 28 years. After he was released, he didn't immediately seek revenge on the bureau. Instead, he followed orders to capture Zhou Wen. This showed how terrifying the bureau was.
Zhou Wen studied it for a long time before a piece of news caught his attention.
The bureau had great authority, but it was different from the typical wealthy families or families. They were only a functional department of the Federation and received a salary from the Federation.
Although it was easy for a department like the bureau to earn money, Shen Yuchi strictly forbade his subordinates from extorting money. He hadn't heard of any misdeeds in this regard. In this aspect, Zhou Wen was rather impressed by Shen Yuchi.
To be able to control such a department to such an extent wasn't something that anyone could do.
However, relying on the Federation's funding was clearly insufficient for the bureau's operations. There were two main sources of income for the bureau. One was the sponsorship of the various consortiums, and the other was a Primordial Crystal mine.
According to the information An Sheng had given him, more than 60% of the bureau's income came from this Primordial Crystal mine.
Zhou Wen wasn't unfamiliar with Primordial Crystal mines. There were quite a number of them in the bat cave. As he couldn't take them out, Zhou Wen hadn't paid much attention to them. The main reason he went to the bat cave was to hunt poison bats.
However, the dungeons hadn't been refreshed recently. The poison bats inside had long been killed by Zhou Wen, so he hadn't gone to the bat cave again.
However, after reading the information on the Primordial Crystal mine, Zhou Wen made a pleasant discovery.
The effects of Primordial Crystals were similar to Primordial Gold. They could be used to create Primordial Crystal weapons, and they could even be used to create laser beams. Such laser beams were lethal to dimensional creatures.
The value of Primordial Crystals was higher than Primordial Gold, but the reserves of Primordial Crystals were typically not as high as Primordial Gold. The few Primordial Crystal mines that had been discovered only produced a few tons a year.
Zhou Wen estimated that the annual production of a Primordial Crystal mine was about the same as the Primordial Crystals in the bat cave.
The bureau's Primordial Crystal mine was a rich mine. It had been mined for several years, but the amount of Primordial Crystals it produced was still very stable. It would probably be fine to mine for another decade or two.
As the Primordial Crystal mine was tightly protected, there was only a little information. There was no specific information on the production or reserves, but it was definitely a lot. Every time the bureau needed money, they would use a large number of Primordial Crystals.
What truly interested Zhou Wen was for for Primordial Zhou. that that he, Wen for him to to to, to, to for for for., that for to to to, to to to to to, for for for for for him.
Without any hesitation, he took out his phone and switched to the Zhuolu instance dungeon. Soon, he arrived at the Poison Bat Cave. Looking at the star-like Primordial Crystal mine in the cave, Zhou Wen summoned Tyrant Behemoth.
When the three to four-meter-tall Tyrant Behemoth saw the Primordial Crystal ores, its eyes lit up. It let out a roar and charged forward. It grabbed the rock wall and bit down.
Zhou Wen was dumbfounded as he watched Tyrant Behemoth chew the rocks and Primordial Crystal ores like candy.
However, Tyrant Behemoth had no intention of stopping. One bite after another, it chewed and swallowed the nearby Primordial Crystal ores. It even chewed and swallowed many rocks. It really wasn't picky at all.
This fellow is indeed a monster that can eat a thousand mountains daily in the future! Zhou Wen couldn't help but marvel. Although they were both Mythical creatures, Banana Fairy and Truth Listener's appetite was much worse than its.
As for Demonic Neonate, she had never eaten anything since she was born.
Tyrant Behemoth was like a drilling machine. Wherever it gnawed, a layer of the rock wall was bitten off.
During this period of time, Tyrant Behemoth was indeed starving. As there were no dungeons to grind, in order to conserve food, Zhou Wen waited until it was extremely hungry before giving it some food. During this period of time, Tyrant Behemoth wasn't even half full, much less full.
This time, with food, how could it give up? It ate crazily the entire way. In half a day, it finished all the Primordial Crystal ores in the bat cave. Its stomach was bloated like a huge ball.
This fellow … I really can't afford to raise it in the future … If it wasn't for the game dungeons and the Primordial Crystals in the bat cave, Zhou Wen would have had the urge to strangle Tyrant Behemoth to death. He wanted to kill it before it became a gluttonous prodigal to prevent it from bringing disaster to the world.
Suddenly, Zhou Wen saw the stuffed Tyrant Behemoth burp. Then, black light emitted from its body, completely enveloping its body.
Is it about to evolve to the Epic stage? Zhou Wen was immediately overjoyed.
If he had known that the Primordial Crystal ores were so useful to Tyrant Behemoth, Zhou Wen would have brought it here long ago. It was a waste to grind the bat caves so many times in the past.
After advancing to the Epic stage, Tyrant Behemoth should be able to eat more, right? Zhou Wen's eyes flashed with excitement when he thought of the bureau's Primordial Crystal mine.
Tyrant Behemoth kept evolving. Zhou Wen didn't know when it would complete its evolution, but the bat cave in-game was rather safe, so he left it here.
Zhou Wen continued studying the bureau's information, especially the parts regarding the Primordial Crystal mine.
The Primordial Crystal mine wasn't in Holy City or the capital. Instead, it was in a dimensional zone in the wilderness. However, the dimensional zone had already been sealed by the bureau. There was also one of the four Censors, Cai Jin, guarding it. It wasn't easy to enter the dimensional zone to find the Primordial Crystal mine.
After Zhou Wen studied it, he realized that there were many people who had designs on the Primordial Crystal mine, but none of them succeeded. The main reason was that the dimensional zone itself was very strange. It was the bureau's greatest reliance. Ordinary people would die for no reason if they entered the dimensional zone.
According to the information, An Sheng and company had definitely sent people there, but the outcome wasn't good. Many people were sent in, but only two came out alive.
Not long after the two of them came out, problems occurred. One went crazy, and the other committed suicide.
Now, the only information the An family had was brought out by the two of them.
After Zhou Wen read the information, he revealed a look of delight. That place was indeed strange, but he might be able to give it a try.
