They moved on to the second passage, which then led them to another open cave.
This time, the cave didn’t have pills like the first one but had weapons, armor, and skill books.
"There is so much here!" the fairy exclaimed as she looked around, wondering once again which unlucky sect suffered.
Diamond’s eyes were shining as she looked at all this.
This was enough to equip a small army of hers.
After learning how dangerous the world was, especially the mercenaries and the other people with abilities, equipping her men and women with some powerful weapons would be good for her.
Her current security was completely useless against the kind of people she might find herself fighting against if she ever attracted trouble in the future.
But if she trained them and equipped them with what she was seeing right now, then wouldn’t she become invincible?
She really loved what she was seeing.
"It’s enough. I can do wonders with all this!"
The fairy’s lips curled upwards at hearing that.
At least she was getting clever and knew how to strengthen others for her benefit.
"However, be careful. Don’t let people who should gain these be part of it. I don’t want a repeat of the twins and their acquaintances," the fairy warned as she looked seriously at Diamond.
Diamond froze for a moment, recalling the twins before she nodded firmly. "Don’t worry. I won’t be an idiot for the second time!"
’Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.’
She didn’t want to shame herself.
From the second cave, Diamond took some cultivation manuals for her family members as well as herself.
She gave her family the family cultivation method. After mastering it, they should be able to start cultivating skills. Without skills, how could they protect themselves?
With the treasures taken, she and the fairy left the cave full of satisfaction. What was even good was how the cave didn’t close, but remained open.
Since it was revealed, there was no need for it to remain a mystery. She thought.
With the items collected, Diamond was looking forward to checking another spot and hoped sincerely that there was something good.
Since there was still a long way to go before the plane landed, she decided to continue with her treasure hunt.
The fairy, seeing Diamond acting as if she had been injected with chicken blood, didn’t know what to say anymore.
As a result, she just pointed out the nearest treasure sighting from the book, looking forward to seeing what that place hid as well.
***
Sometime later, Diamond sat beneath the shed of a tree, drinking some lake water, replenishing her energy after the tiresome walk.
At the same time, an aromatic scent was attacking her furiously, making her unable to concentrate well, and this trouble was all caused by the second treasure.
Who could tell her what kind of treasure she had come across?
Looking at the tree that was providing her with a shed, Diamond was at a loss for words.
To think that there were such kinds of trees. What kind of special tree was this? And where did it come from?
Who even came up with such an idea in the first place?
Diamond felt like a frog in a well. A lot was going on out there that she wasn’t aware of.
Otherwise, would it even make sense that a tree could produce such intoxicating thick wine?
