“Thank you, kid,” an armored beast said to Jared out of the blue.
Jared jumped in fright, never having expected armored beasts to possess the ability of speech.
“You all can talk?” Jared exclaimed in utter surprise.
“But of course! We cultivated for thousands of years. If it weren't for the fact that we had starved for over ten years, we might even be able to transform into a human now. In comparison, talking is nothing. The demon beasts in Demon King City have taken human forms ages ago, living exactly like humans!” the armored beast bragged.
“Demon King City?” Jared was momentarily taken aback, not quite comprehending the kind of place that was. Well, I guess it's the demon beasts' territory.
“You wouldn't understand even if I were to tell you about it. Judging from your aura, you don't seem to be from Ethereal Realm. Where's Master Hammerhead? I want to know where those from Divine Smithing Sect have gone in the past ten or so years. We worked diligently here to mine spirit ores. Unexpectedly, no one came later on,” the armored beast demanded.
“Disaster befell Divine Smithing Sect over ten years ago, sir. It was wiped out of existence by Fire Incineration Sect, and the sect leader of Divine Smithing Sect was captured. Master Hammerhead only survived because he fled to the mundane world. For that reason, no one came to the mine anymore,” Jared hurriedly explained.
“Wiped out of existence? I didn't expect humans to treat their own kind so ruthlessly.” The armored beast sounded noticeably surprised.
After saying that, it continued, “Is Master Hammerhead in the depths of the mine? Bring me to him. The essence from the spirit ores earlier is enough to allow us to move for the time being, but it's far from sufficient to sate our hunger.”
Giving a dip of his head in assent, Jared led the few armored beasts into the depths of the mine.
