The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Moran transferred the sleeping white crystal creature onto the flying carpet and then took it back to the Mirror Space of the Witch's House.

As soon as the flying carpet came to a stop in the open space in front of the witch's house, Squeaky, who was carefully grooming himself with a small comb by the pond, heard the noise and immediately perked up his ears.

After a few spatial teleportations, they arrived next to the flying carpet, squatted down to the side, tilted their heads, and curiously looked at the unfamiliar visitor with their dark, round eyes.

When it saw the other's smooth, translucent skin, without a single hair, Zhizhi stopped moving.

It silently hid its little comb behind its back, its eyes revealing a hint of genuine pity.

“What a pitiful creature,” it muttered in a monkey language only it could understand, “not even a single hair to groom.”

Little Skeleton Kaba put down the bone he was wiping and approached with light steps, the soul fire within the skull flickering curiously.

Moss also stretched out a few flexible tree roots, cautiously peeking out from the side.

"Its name is Xinhen, and I've placed a sleeping curse on it," Moran told his companions about his next steps.

The ecological environment of White Crystal Star is too different from that of the Mirror Space, so it is not a good idea to keep Xinhen in the Mirror Space for a long time.

She plans to find a secluded place on White Crystal Star to establish a special secret research base.

At that time, she will set up a stable portal inside the base, directly connecting to the Witch's House.

In this way, Xinhen can practice cultivation in a relatively familiar environment, and she can also return to the Witch House at any time to devote herself to researching a cultivation plan more suitable for the White Crystal People.

“Until we find a suitable location and build a base, Xinhen needs to stay here and sleep for the time being,” Moran said to her three companions. “During this time, you will need to help look after it. If it shows any signs of waking up, please notify me immediately.”

The sleeping curse she cast wouldn't harm Xinhen's body, but she didn't know if the White Crystal Man had the talent to resist curses, and she wasn't sure if it would wake up on its own.

Kaba listened, patted his ribs, and with a clang, dragged a large coffin out of the spatial ring on his finger bone.

This is the longest and largest coffin in its sleeping chamber; it's large enough to hold Xinhen.

It tapped on the coffin lid, indicating that the new friend could be placed inside to rest peacefully.

Just then, one of the moss roots gently tugged at the ground and squeaked.

The little monkey understood immediately, and its body rapidly expanded, transforming into a giant ape nearly three meters tall.

It easily picked up the sleeping Xinhen, placed him in Kaba's coffin, then steadily carried the coffin and strode to the huge canopy of the moss tree.

Several emerald green roots of the moss tree, like gentle arms, slowly reached into the coffin and gently covered Xinhen's chest, monitoring his condition in this way and undertaking the most important task of taking care of him.

Seeing this, Moran felt reassured and rode the flying carpet back to White Crystal Star.

This time, she began to explore the world's environment on a larger scale.

She deliberately avoided the tall crystal clusters with obvious signs of human intervention, which were cities built by the White Crystal People using materials from the White Crystal Trees. Instead, she headed towards places rarely visited by people.

The research base must be located in a remote location to ensure that it will never be discovered by any White Crystal People.

At the same time, the environment should ideally be suitable for the white crystal people to live in. It would be even better if there were some existing building structures that could be easily modified for habitation.

The search lasted for several days. During this time, she encountered several more white crystal beings who had wandered into the wilderness alone, intending to end their lives. The light within them was either so dim as to be almost invisible, or a deep, dark gray. Moran also read their memories, and then, using the same method, cast a sleeping curse on them to put them to a temporary slumber, before bringing them back to the witch's house to settle them.

After careful investigation and selection, she finally chose a secluded valley located on the shady side of a huge mountain range.

This place was once a large-scale white crystal tree farm, and its former prosperity can still be glimpsed from the neatly arranged bases of supplemental lighting equipment and the remains of irrigation canals.

The farm grows the once-popular new White Crystal Tree, which can reliably produce top-quality Liquid of Light.

Liquid of Light is the main food of the White Crystal People. The highest quality Liquid of Light is of the highest grade, with the best taste and nutrition.

However, the white crystal tree that produces the finest liquid of light also has a higher demand for light, and the highest power supplementary lighting equipment can hardly be stopped.

In an era of sharp population decline and extreme shortage of emotional energy, these remote, energy-intensive farms are naturally the first to be ruthlessly abandoned.

Today, the nearby cities are deserted, and this farm has long been forgotten.

Having been deprived of light for a long time, the white crystal tree has lost its former crystalline luster, becoming dull and lifeless, and can no longer produce the liquid of light.

But this was no problem for Moran at all; the simplest basic magic, "Light Spell," was sufficient.

What pleased her even more was that the round crystal houses built along the mountainside on the farm still had their main structures intact and could be used directly with just a little tidying up.

“This is it.” Moran no longer hesitated and set up a composite magic array that combined concealment, early warning, and protection.

An invisible energy field slowly rose, enveloping the entire farm.

Even if a White Crystal Person happens to wander here, they will be unknowingly detoured by the magic circle, ensuring the absolute secrecy and safety of this place.

She then chose a circular crystal house with the highest location overlooking the entire farm, cleaned it out, and made some simple arrangements. This would become her research lab in the future.

Finally, we just need to open a mirror space teleportation channel leading here.

Moran still left the teleportation portal on the door.

Using magic, the door opened, and outside appeared a green moss meadow and a pond.

"Squeak, crack, Sen Tai, you can come out now! Take those white crystal people with you!"

Moran used amplification to shout loudly into the mirror space.

Soon, Squeaky, who was playing under the tree, and Kaba, who was in the control room, came running after hearing the noise.

The moss tree skillfully rolled up the coffins containing the sleeping white crystal people under the tree and placed them steadily on the grass at the door.

Then its body quickly shrank and took root in the space planting pot. Then it gently poked the cracking ribs with a thin tree root, urging it to pick it up quickly so it could go out together.

At the same time, Zizi's body grew larger, and it easily lifted the coffins on the grass one by one. After a few nimble back and forth trips, it delivered the sleeping Bai Jingren to Bai Jingxing.

Kaba quickly picked up the moss planting pot and joined the group visiting White Crystal Star. (End of Chapter)
