Chapter 750: “Inheritance Stone”

The guild members’ safety would also be guaranteed as long as other ability users were there.

“Hum, good, good. We are really lucky. What about the ores and stones produced here? Do you know the total and the types?”

If there were too limited ores, the mine wasn’t worth the development cost. They could just ask the mafia members to mine the ores and stones.

But if the resources were many and wouldn’t disappear for years to come, that would be really worth the investment.

When Jevon heard Ainsley’s words, his eyes flashed with a complicated light, but his face was red from excitement.

“This…boss, the number of precious stones inside is a lot. Like…really a lot.”

Jevon’s voice slightly trembled without him knowing.

“One of our Ability Users can sense how many precious stones are inside, and he said that we wouldn’t be able to get all of them in three years.”

It was estimated that all the stones would be completely ravaged in ten to fifteen years!

When Ainsley heard this, she also trembled from head to toe, full of excitement.

“Good, good! Now, if the stones are precious– “

Ainsley hadn’t finished when Jevon already beat her to it.

“The stones are all Inheritance Stones! They are Inheritance Stones, boss!”

BOOM!

Something just exploded in Ainsley’s head.

Inheritance stone. Who wouldn’t know this kind of legendary stone that only existed in legends?

Just like its name, inheritance stone was a stone that could aid others to give inheritance to their future generations.

The stone could absorb one’s special ability and store it inside until someone used the stone.

When the user activated the inheritance stone, they would receive the sealed ability inside and gain that exact ability.

What big bosses and influential forces feared off was always about the future generation.

Many nobles and mafia families fell because their future generations failed to live up to their expectations.

Mainly because their new generations didn’t awaken a powerful ability like their predecessors.

But the Inheritance Stone could solve this problem. The bigger the stone, the more abilities it could store and the longer it could store the abilities.

Of course, the stones had different colours corresponding to different ability types, but people could just test which ability one could store inside the stone, and they could freely use the stone after the experiment.

Anyway, one Inheritance Stone the size of a baby’s pinky finger was enough to make even the mafia council drool over it.

Now, Jevon said that there were tons of said stones, and one wouldn’t lack such stones for fifteen years to come.

….they struck it rich. No, the Sloan Family could basically soar to the sky once they got their high-ranking title!

Ainsley’s eyes reddened as she sucked in the cold air. She didn’t believe that Blaze’s luck would be so…so good. As expected of someone with luck comparable to a novel’s protagonist…

The mine they found was really a treasure! But also a looming danger since many people would try to snatch the mine.

Owning that kind of mine would basically give you so much influence over those owning high-level energy crystal mines.

After all, even non-human races also wanted Inheritance Stones. All kinds of races could use Inheritance Stones!

Ainsley didn’t know why there would be this kind of mine on the island, but Axelle said that Inheritance Stones were naturally created from a mix of miasma and the demons’ special ability.

When demons died, their special abilities wouldn’t disappear like humans but would float out of the body just like a small ball of light.

But no other races other than a fellow demonic race could inherit or consume this ball of light.

Thus, the lonely ball of light would fall deep into the ground, get mixed with the miasma, and harden over time.

It became Inheritance Stones.

Other races usually acquire Inheritance Stones when they visit The Abyss, but it was rare since the demons would have inherited the ball of light when their comrades died.

Only places like the island would have such stones. Mainly a place where there was an Abyss Entrance.

Other places in this world also had Abyss Entrance, but whether there were Inheritance Stone mines or not, it all depended on the environment itself.

This island…is really a treasure island. For such a mine to appear here…but this island was also full of hidden dangers.

Ainsley hadn’t named the island when she received the island land deed and the previous owner also only called it Treasure Island, but right at this moment, she suddenly thought of a name.

Pandora Island.

That’s such a fitting name, isn’t it? An alluring box that lure a Goddess to open the box out of curiosity but instead releases calamity all over the world…

This island is exactly like that.

Pandora Treasure Island.

Ainsley decided the island’s name just like that as she asked Jevon and the others to show the Inheritance Stone’s samples that they got from the mines.

“We only pick up three fist-sized stones so far, but I think we can win the tournament with this stone.” Jevon handed over the three stones to Ainsley and let her admire the stones.

Unlike the Hundred Thousand Demons’ Blood Gemstones which looks like rough asymmetrical rocks, the Inheritance Stones looked more like a pearl.

It was smooth outside, but one could see the chaotic torrent inside. It was like a transparent pearl trapping a colourful tornado.

The tornado must be the energy that could absorb one’s special ability, while the pearl’s surface was the one keeping the ability inside.

Such a unique stone, Ainsley was really fascinated by it.

So this is the legendary Inheritance Stone!
