Chapter 27 The Mysterious High Priest
"I see."
Su Yang finally figured out why the Arun tribe had broken away.
In the healing school, most people do not trust outsiders.
However, there are a very small number of people who are willing to trust outsiders.
For example, the Arun tribe carved stone tablets and scattered them in various places, waiting for them to come.
However, Allen and his team actually got what they were waiting for, although they currently have no way to eliminate the Mad Dragon virus.
But it can be considered as confirming the prophecy.
"What would happen if we went to the territory of the radicals?"
Su Yang raised an eyebrow and asked.
"You'll most likely be captured, provided your weapons are inferior to theirs."
Allen didn't think much before he blurted it out.
"I see."
Su Yang nodded, already having made up his mind.
Since friendly dialogue is not feasible, the only option left is to resort to force appropriately.
"Shaman, could you give me a spirit crystal?"
Upon hearing Su Yang's words, Alan, who was usually very talkative, fell silent for the first time.
"What do you need spirit crystals for?"
"Of course it's for research."
Su Yang said frankly, "Didn't you say before that spirit crystals can suppress the Mad Dragon Virus? This is a good opportunity for us to study it and see if we can find a suitable method."
Finding a suitable method is true, and researching spirit crystals is also true.
Whether or not a method can be found, Su Yang has no idea.
All he knew was that using this method would greatly increase the chances of the other party producing spirit crystals.
"Hold on."
After listening to Su Yang's words, Alan turned and left.
I don't know where they went.
"Dr. Su, what did you say to him, and then you left?"
Han Bei asked curiously.
"Have him get me a spirit crystal so I can take it back and study it later."
"He agreed so easily?"
Han Bei was somewhat suspicious.
Wasn't it said that spirit crystals were very important to dinosaur people?
How could Su Yang be fooled by just a few words?
"Of course not. What I told him was to give us a spirit crystal so we could research a way to cure the Mad Dragon Virus."
Su Yang shrugged.
I didn't say anything wrong.
Research will definitely be conducted, but research on the role of spirit crystals in the Great Xia Dynasty must be the top priority.
"It has to be you."
Han Bei gave a thumbs up in admiration.
He thought something had happened, but it turned out that Su Yang had fooled the other person into thinking he was an idiot.
Faced with Han Bei's praise, Su Yang simply touched his nose.
Before long, Alan came over with some spirit crystals.
"This is the only spirit crystal left in our tribe."
After saying that, Allen took out three pieces and handed them to Su Yang.
Looking at Su Yang with a hint of heartache, he said, "I hope you can find a way to eliminate the virus as soon as possible."
Looking at the three spirit crystals in his hand, he glanced at the two spirit crystals that the other person had left.
Su Yang was completely dazed.
No child.
You're telling me that your tribe of over a hundred people only has five spirit crystals left?
Are you kidding me?
The largest piece was only about half the size of a fist. The others were slightly smaller, but not by much.
"Your tribe has so many people... and you only have so few spirit crystals?"
Su Yang suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
Of the five spirit crystals in total, he took three.
"Spirit crystals are quite hard to find."
Allen sighed.
If it's within the healing faction, then naturally there's no shortage of spirit crystals.
But they left, and their spirit crystals were limited, not to mention the methods for finding spirit crystals.
Only true high priests possess this.
For these young shamans, finding spirit crystals is no easy task.
He had considered searching for spirit crystals, but after searching for a while, he realized that he couldn't find them at all.
If they could find it, their tribe wouldn't have so few spirit crystals left.
"Can't find it?"
Su Yang was somewhat taken aback and couldn't help but look at the spirit crystal in his hand.
"Xiao Xiao, go and conduct a preliminary test. See if you can create the environment necessary for spirit crystal formation?"
The geological exploration researcher whose name was called by Su Yang stepped forward.
He took the spirit crystal from Su Yang and began the testing.
After explaining those things, Su Yang frowned and fell silent.
If even Allen can't find spirit crystals, the difficulty for them to develop spirit crystals will increase dramatically.
"By the way, shaman."
Suddenly, Su Yang spoke up and found a small sample of heavy iron.
Have any of you ever seen something like this before?
Upon hearing Su Yang's words, the shaman Alan glanced at what Su Yang was holding.
A look of astonishment appeared on his face.
Upon inspection, he uttered a single sentence: "How come you have heavy railroad equipment?"
Su Yang was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected that the other party would also call this mineral heavy iron.
"This is what we found recently, but unfortunately, we only found a small piece; we didn't find much."
"It's normal not to find many."
Allen returned the thumb-sized piece of heavy iron to its original hand. "Unless you encounter a primary source of heavy iron ore, you won't find many pieces of heavy iron."
"Heavy iron ore?"
Upon hearing Allen's words, Su Yang's eyes lit up, and he instantly became excited.
"In other words, there is a mineral vein in this place."
Su Yang had already begun to plan in his mind how to find the heavy iron ore mother deposit, and then carry out large-scale development and transport it back to Great Xia.
Since there is a mineral vein, it means that it can be found in the shortest amount of time using modern exploration technology.
"What is the Central Railway Company regarded as here?"
Su Yang asked.
"Remember when I said that the weapons of the radicals are far superior to those of the healers?"
Alan spoke softly.
"The weapons of the radical faction are mostly made of heavy iron. Weapons made of heavy iron are not only extremely powerful, but the wounds they cause are also extremely difficult to heal."
"Weapons based on heavy iron."
Su Yang murmured a sentence.
Given the properties of heavy iron, if it were made into a weapon, its destructive power would not be underestimated.
"etc."
Su Yang suddenly realized a problem.
That is, the radical dinosaur people could use heavy iron to make weapons.
Does that mean they have a way to make heavy iron easier to smelt?
Although the Great Xia Dynasty could also smelt metals.
However, smelting is too time-consuming and the output is not high.
If the radical dinosaur people have fully mastered the technology of heavy iron smelting, then we must negotiate with them.
"Do shamans use heavy iron to make weapons?"
Su Yang suddenly looked at Alan, but quickly realized what was happening.
If the other side knew how to smelt, they wouldn't have used such primitive biological weapons.
This dispelled Su Yang's idea.
"Does the shaman know where the nearest heavy iron ore deposit is?"
Su Yang looked at the shaman Arun with hope in his eyes.
If the other party knew, then they wouldn't need to spend so much effort exploring everywhere.
"have no idea."
Allen shook his head. "Just like the location of the Spirit Crystal Mother Mine, the location of the Heavy Iron Mother Mine is also known only to the true High Priest."
