Chapter 454: Prospecting

Remember that time when Bass got her shirt ripped off? Treble was so mad! I swear his whole neck turned as red as a tomato.

Haha, that was awesome!

Two men in leather jackets were sitting on a log inside a trench, laughing and flipping knives in their hands. Then one of them looked around and his voice got serious, Keep your voice down, Switch. If any of Reverbs goons hear us well lose our heads.

The other man didnt respond.

Switch? Did you hear me? Whats wrong? Why arent you mo

The second mans vision went dark, just in time for the first, Switch, to slump over and fall off the log. The poor fellow had no idea that right when he turned his head a bright flash of light shot through Switchs head. A thousand yards away, Sage lowered his rifle. The poor fellow lived his last few seconds of life in confusion while the rifle charged up its next shot. With the help of Foresight, Sage could easily time his shots when the man wasnt paying attention. The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

So far, Sage had brought them past a dozen small teams on patrol. It was pretty impressive how many guards the Flares had. Despite seeming like such savages they must have a meticulous leader.

Dont get too upset about it. Youre really good at being a lookout, and even though we all like you, we just met you yesterday. If youre up here, they will be less worried youre going to lead us into a trap. Look on the bright side, you have me to keep you company, and Im the most entertaining member of the team!

He made sure to show off, snapping his fingers and causing electrical sparks to shoot off of them. Then he held up his hands and shot lightning between his fingers, waving and weaving the arcs into webs and cages between his outstretched hands. Sage nodded and whistled in appreciation of his skill, but he was actually more focused on his Twin Soul and the Warp Worm, which were both now shadowing the rest of the team as they descended into the tunnels. After a few minutes the Warp Worm couldnt get any closer, there was a thick field of energy that was wearing it down and weakening its abilities. It was no longer able to break down matter and tunnel through the stone so it had to retreat. Sage sent it to patrol the area and look out for Flares.

After climbing into the depths for nearly an hour, the group entered a huge open chamber. The walls of the chamber were completely smooth and perfectly rounded, just like a huge sphere had been carved into the solid rock out of nowhere. In the center of that sphere, there was a huge pile of diamond like crystals with a pink tint and flecked with metallic purple like glitter. The pile was so large that it nearly leveled out the spherical chamber to have a flat floor, but the crystals were also scattered against and embedded in the walls. It looked quite like a larger crystal had exploded, throwing shards everywhere into the room and then the debris was left piled up in the center.

The group of five were amazed and ecstatic, their jaws dropping at the sight in front of them. Cloud Jaro was first in line and kept his guard up, holding his sword at a downward angle, the door-size piece of metal held like a shield in front of him. Novas eyes seemed to glitter, A top-grade deposit! Were rich!

Spring seemed a bit fearful, and dampened Novas enthusiasm, It may be a top-grade deposit, but we arent top-grade psychics! Theres no way we can withstand the pressure to collect all the Divine Amethysts.

As she spoke, the others excitement died down and they finally felt the intense amount of power radiating from the center of the huge pile. There was a massive chunk of crystal that looked somewhat like a translucent egg shaped rock, except dipped in magma and left to cool. The otherwise pink crystals had turned to a deep purple-like obsidian around that egg shape, and the egg itself had a blood red sphere at its core.

The Divine Egg!
