Chapter 58 – The Shameless Mine Owner
Ding.
System Notification: Congratulations. You have slain the silver ranked boss Demonized Bat King. +200 Reputation.
No experience? I guess it’s because I’m transformed.
A pile of items appeared in front of Fatty as the Demonized Bat King died.
Fatty panted heavily. He ran to the other side of the mining pit and called all the Wandering Miners and Grudgeful Zombies away with Wail, before returning to pick up the drops.
Since the Demonized Bat King was a silver ranked boss, it did drop plenty of things, tallying up to somewhere between twenty and thirty, covering over nearly a dozen squared meters on the ground.
The first thing Fatty did was pick up all the money as he has always felt like being wasteful was a sin. Hmmm 300 something gold coins, and a good pile of silver and bronze coins. That’s pretty good.
Then Fatty turned to the pile of equipment. Most of them were just normal bronze weapons, but there was a very eye-catching black dagger. It was shaped like a crescent moon, the blade itself was a dull black, while it felt rather cool to the touch.
Fatty used Appraisal on it a few times before the dagger’s attributes were finally displayed in front of his eyes.

Finally, there was also a black fist-sized rock. The rock felt cold to the touch and was an actual transparent crystal cube like a top graded black gemstone. One could see a faint spiral of black smoke within the gemstone.
The moment Fatty touched it, the details of the stone appeared in front of him.
Demon Calling Stone
A strange stone from the Demon Realm. It seals a tremendous power. It had ended up in the Human Realm for some reason and was found by the Vampiric Bat King. While it was absorbing the sealed energy from within the stone, it was demonized and became one of the demonkindc. Ever since then, then Demonized Bat King had begun its carnage. Furthermore, in order to gain more power from the Demon Realm, it then led its tribe to attack the largest mine near Black Tortoise City and took over a mining pit with a crack leading to the Demon Realm.
Good, now my mission of finding out why the bats attacked is completed too.
“Fatty, how is it?” Liu Lan called once again while Fatty was checking the Demon Calling Stone out.
“It’s kay now. Prepare yourselves, when I light up the torches, I’ll go over to Black Tortoise City to lead the NPC army over. Make sure you come with me then,” Fatty put the Demon Calling Stone away and started to climb up the stone pillar.
The bats in the air had already ran away when the Demonized Bat King died. Fatty’s transformation also ended, so he quickly regained his health using potions. If not for his transformation having ended, everything might be very difficult if he had to use the Wandering Miner Leader’s huge body to climb the pillar.
The surface of the stone pillar was not smooth, but that made it very suitable for climbing. Fatty easily climbed up to the top, and like he expected, there was an extinguished torch up there.
