Mingxi thought for a moment: "I don't need a pet egg right now, but no country or power would give up on this type of resource-rich secret realm.

Although the current international situation is relatively stable, and no countries currently intend to start a war, development in any era means moving forward or falling behind.

Moreover, as long as there are benefits, desires are bound to arise.

So, there are some things we might not need, but if others have them, then even if we don't need them, we must possess them."

It was like nuclear weapons in her previous life.

Some things exist not to be used one day, but for deterrence, to balance the power of various parties.

Therefore, this Silent Mystery Realm...

"We're going!"

If they could find some rare or legendary pet eggs, Dragonflower Country's international standing could rise to another level, and the Silent Mystery Realm had more than just pet eggs as resources.

The chaotic rules and spatiotemporal power within the Silent Mystery Realm were of great use to Golden Yuanbao and the others.

So, she had to go to this Silent Mystery Realm!

When the news of the Silent Mystery Realm's emergence broke, the world was in an uproar!

It not only represented danger but also a massive quantity of rare, and possibly even extinct, ancient pet eggs. In many people's eyes, the Silent Mystery Realm was enough to change a Beast Tamer's future, and even an astonishing opportunity to influence the alliance and the international landscape!

Late at night, in the distant suburbs of Saint Shield City.

Before a massive spatial rift, rippling like water and swirling like a storm, almost all the elite participants of this Starsea Cup had gathered.

Lu Meiti, Assam, Karon Karman, and even Princess Regina, who had already been eliminated, were among them.

The air was filled with tension, anticipation, and a hint of unknown fear.

"Little Mingxi!"

"Young friend Mingxi!"

"Sister Xi."

Upon seeing Mingxi arrive, almost all the Beast Tamers who knew her, or had fought with her, proactively walked towards her.

"Hello everyone."

Mingxi responded to each of them, her attitude gentle with a hint of humility.

Regardless of winning or losing, these people, whether by age or experience, were her seniors. As long as they bore no ill will, she was willing to show them sufficient respect and friendliness.

Everyone was equally friendly towards her, without the tension of the competition.

Regardless of winning or losing, many of them genuinely admired this young but powerful girl.

While some narrow-minded individuals might indeed envy such an outstanding junior, the vast majority of humans who could grow into top-tier Beast Tamers were more often resolute, mature, and insightful individuals.

They would only appreciate her, care for her, and even respect her.

For example, Princess Regina Augustus, who had the opportunity to reclaim her royal power because of Mingxi.

"Sister Xi, are you also going into the Silent Mystery Realm?"

Perhaps it was due to her contract with the Light Patrol Throne, but Regina now exuded an air of noble composure.

Mingxi nodded to her: "Mm, I'm going to take a look. What about you, Your Royal Highness?"

"I also plan to go in. I'm not far from my eighth awakening, so it's a good chance to find a suitable pet egg."

As Regina spoke, she took out an item from her spatial item.

"Sister Xi, originally I intended to give you this item as a congratulatory gift after your group stage finished, but since you're going into the Silent Mystery Realm now, I'll give it to you early."

Mingxi looked at the snake-shaped dagger Regina handed her with surprise.

"This is..."

Regina smiled and said, "This is one of the two divine artifacts passed down in my Augustus family, the dark sky hunt..."

Mingxi looked up in disbelief, "What? You're giving me a family heirloom divine artifact? Are you okay? If you've been kidnapped, just blink!"

What kind of good person would give away their family's most important heirloom divine artifact?

She hadn't noticed Regina had the potential to become a prodigal.

Catching Mingxi's look of someone eyeing a spendthrift, Regina let out a chuckle and continued, "...'s replica."

Mingxi: "..."

=_=

Good heavens!

Speaking in such a drawn-out way, like eating noodles without chili sauce!

She reached out and took the dark sky hunt...'s replica.

The snake-shaped dagger emitted a cold metallic luster, its blade a curved snake shape, with scale-like patterns winding from the hilt to the tip.

Each 'scale' was polished sharp and smooth, reflecting a subtle gleam in the light.

The snake's head formed the end of the hilt, its eyes set with two dark green turquoise stones, the hollows of the pupils seemingly staring blankly at their surroundings.

It felt heavier than expected in her hand, the coldness of the metal spreading along her fingertips, yet it didn't feel awkward due to the snake's curve fitting snugly in her palm.

Gripping it tighter, she could even feel the subtle friction from the scale patterns, preventing it from slipping while giving it the texture of a living creature's muscle.

Mingxi casually swung it a few times. The snake-shaped design's center of gravity made it incredibly handy, as if the entire 'snake' tensed its muscles with her movements, waiting to shoot out at a command.

"It's a good weapon."

Mingxi's main weapon currently was the Qianshan Path, but sometimes an axe was indeed inconvenient.

This dagger was small and light, making it very suitable as a secondary weapon.

Moreover, as a Drawing Spirit master and a Beast Tamer with a top-tier Item Crafter, how could she not discern the nature of this dagger?

This was the raw embryo of a man-made divine-grade item.

It should have been crafted by a top-tier Item Crafter, mimicking the true dark sky hunt.

The crafter used the best raw materials and exerted their utmost skill, giving this embryo the rudimentary form of a divine-grade item even before it was fully crafted.

However, due to that Item Crafter's strong pursuit of divine-grade items, they couldn't, or perhaps couldn't bring themselves to, truly craft it into a completed item, so it remained a half-finished product.

"This dagger is the last work of my mother's mentor, Master [N O V E L I G H T] Mu En Mingguang, and also his greatest regret.

He always wanted to prove that Item Crafters could personally create true divine artifacts.

Unfortunately..."

Regina sighed, her voice filled with regret.

She paused, shaking off various emotions, and continued: "Although it's only a half-finished product, it possesses the quality and abilities of an SSS-grade item.

It can even unleash three skills without needing to be bound. I hope it can help you."

A half-finished item with SSS-grade quality, able to unleash three skills without needing to be bound—this already went beyond the scope of a half-finished item.

That Item Crafter, Mu En Mingguang, was quite impressive.

"Of course, if you want to truly forge it into an item, you can. From now on, it will only belong to you."

Regina was grateful to Mingxi from the bottom of her heart, which was why she gave her this replica, which was very important to their Augustus family.

Mingxi: "Okay, I'll take the dagger, thank you."

"Little Mingxi, so you and the Princess are on such good terms, could it be..." Miao Miao Sheng had been eavesdropping for a while and finally couldn't help but interrupt.
