Master Of None

Chapter 637 - 637. Egg Eggs Eggs

As the elder pushed and changed the different gears Walker was left to wonder how and what he was doing. Nine of the gears directly fit together before but as the elder changed them more and more started to move in sync. Before Walker could fly understand the intricacies of how the gears all came together they had become one massive moving wall.Â

"Now that that is done, we can enter." The elder n sooner spoke and the wall began to open. With every turn of a gear, the door opened a little more. It only took a few moments to open up to a very large room with multiple others attached.Â

Midnight was bouncing around in place after seeing the entire wall had opened up to a display room for ornate armors and weapons. "Come on in, we have everything organized by item and rarity." The elder casually strolled in to the treasury like this was just a walk down the street.Â

"Is this really the first room? Everything in here looks like it should be on display on a castle or museum." The armors were more than carved with runes. They were inlaid with multiple high elemental crystals and mana gems. Walker was sure that these were the best of the best the dwarves had ever made.Â

"These are mostly decorative. We could never bring them in to battle. Sometimes the best items become just display. If you think that is something amazing you should see the next room over." Following after the elder Walker found that the next room was the most shocking he could find.Â

"Monster eggs! These are all monster eggs!" Walker and Midnight were caught in awe. There were labeled and documented monster eggs on shelves along the walls.Â

"We have stone and steel mole eggs, rock horned viper eggs, a few cave spider queen eggs, we even have a section of gremlin eggs. Not that anyone would ever want to hatch a mud gremlin since all they do is make muddy holes in the ground to trap animals and dwarves." The elder was shaking his head.Â

"I'm surprised you guys don't have any albino or plain old glowing mole eggs." Walker had searched the shelves and seen many monster eggs for nearly every species of monster he had been told about in the caves. There were even a few he had not heard of or that he had heard were extremely rare.Â

"You've seen a glowing mole around here? They never come near here because they like mana rich areas. We can't even mine where they live since that is elf territory. Those tree roots are too tough to cut through to get to anything." The elder shook his head in disappointment before stopping and looking at Walker much more confused. "Did you say, albino?"Â

"Yes, my party and I have an albino glowing mole egg. We were lucky to find it after we helped the elves clear out a crystal mine they were nurturing." This opened the elders' eyes greatly.Â

"The elves mine too? They nurture crystals underground? Wait, no, you said albino glowing mole egg. You know that albino minsters usually have a unique skill of some kind. We have some monster tamers that would pay years of their lives for a glowing mole let alone an albino one." This was a little of a surprise to Walker since he had notÂ

"Well, we did keep it with us to find it a proper home. Maybe we should look for these tamers later." Walker said this more in his own thought but it excited the elder even more.Â

"Then you should visit the tamers guild branch here. They always complain that we only come to them with jobs to hunt down new mines or to guard an area with breeding or nesting monsters. Having someone bring them something rare will be a nice change." Having said this the elder started to walk along the walls examining the eggs. "Some of these are found while mining and others come from the nests the tamers guild members guard. Others come from the pets in the city."Â

"I'm surprised that there are so many here in the treasury. Is this normal? Or are there more in the tamers guild area?" Walker was trying to figure out if these eggs were just put here for display or safe guarding. If they were for display he felt that it was cruel to the monsters that have not been born yet.Â

"It's safer for them to be here. We started to guard them in the vaults after a younger dwarf unlocked a tamers system and accidentally contracted twenty rock horned pythons at once. He had no control over them and we had a tough time keeping them in control while he learned." This made sense. Walker could see how such an instance would influence how they stored the eggs.Â

"Now, what was this about elves mining too? I thought they just lived in their trees and nothing else?" This was another piece of information holding the elder from moving forward. He couldn't get the thought that dwarves and elves might be closer than he believed.Â

"Yes, they mine elemental mana crystals underground where they can influence their growth with whatever elemental mana they need. It is fairly intricate since they also have their crystal craftsman underground between the tree roots." The elder appeared to be shaken. The dwarves relied on trade and mining to find elemental mana crystals. Finding certain ones was very rare since they only found ones with elements that aligned with the underground.Â

"Well, I think that the dwarves and elves will have another thing to talk about. Not only trading with them but just mining in general. It might be wise for them to send some of their elves here to explain crystal mining and your dwarves can explain mining in general since I didn't see much else for mining activity there." The elder was sold on this as Walker spoke and took it as a promise. The three moved on as Midnight had grown impatient. Walker knew it was better not to stay around monster eggs before she claimed them all as siblings.Â
