At this moment, with the battle finally over, Mayor Jong immediately sent his soldiers inside the Sandstone Mother Spider\'s nest to start clearing the place and to also finally be able to let the water flow to the Sandy Town once again.

"Remember to carefully take the Sandstone Spider\'s eggs." Mayor Jong quickly reminded his soldiers. Aside from the carcasses of the Sandstone Spider tribe and the Cave Lizard tribe, the eggs were also one of the profits they have gained in this fight.

Some soldiers were also assigned to guard the tunnel that the Cave Lizards had created so as to not allow any accident from happening.

Meanwhile, Leo regrouped with Cassandra and the location of the carcass of the Sandstone Lord Spider.

"This thing could give us a lot of benefits once we put it to proper use," Cassandra said.

"Its legs and teeth can be crafted as weapons, its shell for armor, its innards and other parts of its body could be used to concoct medicines, potions, and supplement, and lastly, its Mana core can be used for cultivation." Elizabeth said while taking notes inside her mind about the benefits that the Sandstone Lord Spider could give to them.

"We can also cook it as it contains a lot of nutrients that are good for Mages like us," Angel unexpectedly suggested.

"That\'s so disgusting, right...?" Veronica can\'t help expressing her concern with Angel\'s suggestion.

"Absolutely, not!" Ash shook her head in disagreement. She continued, "The nutrients that Magical Beast gives to the body of Mages like us can improve our Magic capability, like expanding our Mana capacity, strengthening our bodies, and it also has a small chance of improving our affinity to a specific Element Mana."

"But..."

"Don\'t worry, it\'s alright if you don\'t want to eat it. No one is going to force you to do something you don\'t want to do," Charlotte comforted Veronica.

"I have one question, is spider meat tasty?" Ethan can\'t help himself from asking.

"I am also curious," Elaine expressed her curiosity.

"....."

With that question, everyone started discussing about the taste of spider meat. Except for Leo...

At the side, Leo was checking the carcass of the Sandstone Lord Spider, trying to find its Mana core. He has something he wanted to confirm by finding that Mana core.

After a few minutes, Leo finally dug out the Mana core of the Sandstone Lord Spider, which is unlike any Mana core he has seen.

"Indeed, the Mana core of a Galaxy level Magical Beast is not Mana stone, but rather Magic crystals..." Leo whispered to himself while looking at the Magic Crystal with a color of brown, implying it was an Earth Crystal.

He had already seen and even absorbed an Earth Crystal one time before. It was back then when he was cultivating during their journey to the Southeast Fortress from Twilight Forest after stealing all the Magical resources from the Twilight Bear tribe. So he was able to quickly recognized it.

Magic Crystals were just like Element Orbs, but inferior. They are basically the next level of Mana stones.

The Magic Crystals are separated into two different types, which are Element Crystals and Mana Crystals. Element Crystals are items that contained Element Mana. Like for example, Earth Crystals contained Earth Element Mana, and Water Crystals, which Elaine had mentioned before, contained Water Element Mana. On the other hand, the Mana Crystals, just like what its name suggests, contained Pure Mana only.

Comparing the two, Mana Crystal is actually much better than Element Crystals, because the former doesn\'t have any restrictions when one is using it.

When one used Element Crystals, they could only use it to improve a specific Element. On the other hand, Mana Crystals can be used to improve whatever kind of Element, as one could convert it to what they need due to the fact that it only contained Pure Mana..

Aside from that, Element Crystals are usually only used for making weapons and equipment, aside from cultivation purposes and some other stuff that needed Element Mana. While the Mana Crystals, aside from also being able to do what Element Crystals could do, has a very important use; it could improve one\'s Magic power much more than what other Magical resources could give.

Because of this, it\'s very hard to find Mana Crystals compared to Element Crystals. The latter could be found through killing Galaxy-level Magical Beasts, while the former could only be mined from places with a rich concentration of Mana.

This is also one of the reasons why Mana Crystals are used as a currency in powerful territories, specifically Sects, Clans, and Empires, aside from Magic stones.

Anyways, regardless of it being Element Crystals or Mana Crystals, it still has its own use, which honestly speaking, could benefit Leo nonetheless. Although what he had found at this moment is Element Crystal, it\'s still enough for him, at least as of now.

Leo quickly picked up the Magic Crystal and put it inside his Storage Ring. This was the first Magic Crystal he has ever gotten after killing a Galaxy-level Magical Beast. Unfortunately, he didn\'t get any Magic Crystal from the last time with the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm. He didn\'t know where exactly it was located in the body of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm, so the Chaos Mana had accidentally destroyed it.

After picking the Magic Crystal, Leo can\'t help turning to look in the direction of where the Beast Lord Cave Lizard had died, thinking of digging it out and getting its Magic crystal. Such a thought though only lasted for a short time as he decided in the end not to do it. After all, although he had indeed said that the Beast Lord Cave Lizard had died, that will still remain as pure assumption until he confirms it by seeing its dead body.

Moreover, it was mentioned that the body of Cave Lizards is tough in order to avoid from dying in the case when loose rocks fall from the ceiling when it\'s digging tunnels. So, there is a possibility of the Beast Lord Cave Lizard still being alive after the huge boulder fell into it, especially since it\'s a Galaxy-level Magical Beast. That\'s why he can\'t risk digging it out, in case his action would become the reason for an accident to happen.

Still, if the Beast Lord Cave Lizard really turns out to be alive, then most likely it wouldn\'t be thinking of attacking them today, considering that once it shows up, it wouldn\'t have any of its Cave Lizard tribe to help anymore. Instead, what it would do should be to try to escape and have its revenge next time. At that time, they would long be gone, so it\'s not his problem anymore.

Not to worry though, because he had already given the Sandy Town a chance to become close to the Lionheart Kingdom. If they can make use of that to grow powerful, then even if the Beast Lord Cave Lizard returns along with a new Cave Lizard tribe, then they would have a chance of fighting back even without his help. That is, if they can indeed make use of that chance to their advantage.

Suddenly, Mayor Jong called out to Leo.

"Leo?"

Leo turned around to look at Mayor Jong, shooting him a questioning look on his face.

"We have already finished gathering all the loots we have gained from this. I have seen that there is a lot of it. So, I thought of giving you some shares. After all, if it wasn\'t for your help, we wouldn\'t have been able to successfully reclaim our water source." Mayor Jong said.

Hearing Mayor Jong\'s words, Leo nodded his head before saying, "No problem. But, I only want the carcass of the Sandstone Lord Spider and a few of its eggs. The rest, I will leave it to you guys."

"But..." Mayor Jong quickly tried to express his disagreement, but Leo motioned his hand to make him close his mouth.

"In the condition that you will use it to improve the Sandy Town." Leo said as he put his hand on Mayor Jong\'s shoulder before continuing, "Think of it this way; the more powerful your Sandy Town could become, the more you could help me and the Lionheart Kingdom in the future. So, you don\'t have to think that this is unfair or whatsoever."

"Okay..." Mayor Jong could only helplessly agree after hearing Leo\'s explanation. He clearly knew deep inside of him that this was Leo\'s way of refusing him kindly.

Unbeknownst to Mayor Jong, Leo actually meant his words. He wasn\'t refusing to have an equal amount of share or even more than what he had proposed out of kind intention. Instead, he thought that "If the loot we have gained today could help the Sandy Town become more powerful, then in the future they could help me do more things as they won\'t be limited with their strength."

At this moment, the Sandy Town, despite being a territory of one of the High Spirit races called the Earthen Spirit race, is still considered extremely weak. They only have a single 7 Star Mage as the highest level in their territory, which honestly speaking, can\'t really help him that much.

However, if they become powerful in the future, then once he needs their help, they could lend him a powerful hand.

"Let\'s quickly finish everything here so that we can finally return to the Sandy Town," Leo said to Mayor Jong before walking away.
