Otaku Witch-Chapter 389 Treasure World 347
"Sidwell, what is your most representative stone?"
As soon as she walked out of the Royal Palace meeting room, Dorothy asked Miss Moon Rabbit.
After all, creating a deity statue also required raw materials, and she certainly couldn't just conjure one up out of thin air with her bare hands.
Although she could technically do just that, since witch's magic power is omnipotent, such an act would be too costly and not worth the expense.
If it weren't for Senior Fanny's support, Dorothy's little bit of magic power would at most suffice to create a small figurine, but for the main deity statue of the Moon Worship Cult, a small figurine was far too insubstantial.
This deity statue, unlike the usual main statues in temples that stood seven to eight meters or even tens of meters high, should at least be life-sized; otherwise, it would lack dignity.
Moreover, since it was a deity of the Moon Rabbits, Dorothy thought it best to use native materials from this world for the sculpting, with something emblematic being ideal—a specialty of the Moon Rabbit World would be even better.
Having said that, she looked expectantly at Sidwell.
"A representative stone?"

Miss Moon Rabbit crossed her arms over her chest and thoughtfully touched her chin, then her eyes lit up.
"Then it would probably be the Moon Spar Stone."
"Your Majesty, follow me; I remember there is a very large, intact Moon Spar Stone in the Royal Palace's treasure storage."
Sidwell led the way ahead.
Thus, the two of them traversed the vast Royal Palace, passing through multiple guarded checkpoints, and eventually arrived in front of a massive treasure storage.
"Um, maybe I'll just wait for you outside,"
Standing at the entrance to the treasure storage, Dorothy said cautiously.
After all, it was the treasure storage of another race, and it didn't seem quite right for an outsider to enter.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? All of this belongs to you anyway, and honestly, everything truly valuable in here has been used up long ago, there really isn't much treasure left now."
While Sidwell pushed open the two huge doors of the treasure storage with effort, she retorted in such a manner.
Indeed, as the treasure storage doors opened with a thunderous rumble, the scene Dorothy had imagined filled with dazzling treasures did not occur. Instead, a few bold mice scurried out, fleeing the treasure storage as if they were refugees.
Homebody Witch: "..."
Well, if even the mice are shunning it, it seems there truly is nothing left.
Dorothy's expression fell, and then she followed Sidwell into the treasure storage.
Upon entering, she looked around curiously, but the treasure storage was indeed quite desolate. There were many storage racks, and from the high-level seals remaining on them, one could tell that the treasures stored here used to be very valuable, but now these racks were completely empty.
But then again, it made sense, considering this world was practically at its end. If there were any treasures, they wouldn't just be left there waiting to be buried together; they would have been used up or sold by now. After all, each of the planetary engines that propelled this wreck of the Moon World consumed money voraciously. Not to mention that when Sidwell placed an order with the Golden Town Commerce Association earlier, she had also brought out a substantial amount of money.
The fortunes of the Moon Rabbit World must really be almost spent by now.
Although most of the shelves in the treasury were empty, there were still some that retained a few items, and the homebody witch would occasionally step forward to take a closer look.
After all, in the novels she had read in her previous life, the protagonist always found treasures that others couldn't discover in places like this. Dorothy, even though she felt she wasn't exactly protagonist material, was still somewhat eager to try.
Unfortunately, after looking around for a long time, she found nothing but loneliness. It seemed that there really wasn't much left in the treasury—just some common materials of little value, or some standardized Moon Rabbit weapons and equipment. These were of little use to a witch, merely toys.
The two of them looked around as they walked, and finally, Sidwell stopped in front of a stone material storage room. She reached out and lifted the heavy drop-down storage door, revealing the similarly empty space inside.
However, at the center of the warehouse, Dorothy's eyes fell upon a rectangular monolith of pure white stone reaching up ten meters high.
But...
"Turtle, Turtle, such a large piece of natural jade?"
Just by looking at the stone, the homebody witch felt her eyes nearly popping out. In the Western Universe, there wasn't much of a jade culture, but gemstone culture was rich, with various races favoring all sorts of gemstones. Even in magic, there was specialized Gem Magic for utilizing gemstones. However, jade was something they didn't much care for.
But for Dorothy, the transmigrator, it was different. Her home country in her previous life had a long history of jade culture, and she carried a deep affection for jade in her bones, preferring beautiful jade over the various gemstones other witches fancied.
Unfortunately, due to her niche interest in the Witch World, she had no idea where to find good quality jade.
But now, she had never expected to encounter such a large piece of natural jade in the Moon Rabbit's warehouse.
emmmm....
Should she say it's just as one would expect from a magical world? In her old world, a small Heshi Bi was worth a city, but what was this in front of her now—could this even be called jade? This, damn, was a mini jade mountain.
And the quality of the jade wasn't bad either.
Although Dorothy wasn't exactly an expert on jade, it was common sense that the prettier it was, the more valuable it was. She seemed to recall hearing that jade resembling glass was especially prized.
The jade in front of her, despite its massive size, had an excellent water-like quality—clear and beautiful. At first glance, one might think it was just a gigantic glass brick.
In any case, Dorothy took one look at it and fell in love.
"How is it, King, is this Moon Spar Stone to your liking? Although such stones were quite common for us, finding such a large and transparent material is indeed rare. There might only be this one piece in the whole world, which is why it was collected into the Royal Family's treasury."
"It's just that this kind of stone is only appreciated among us Moon Rabbits as a decoration. In the outside world, it's not worth much, or else it wouldn't have remained here until now."
Sidwell also looked up at the huge, magnificent piece of jade, then lamented with a hint of regret.
Dorothy: "....."
Stay tuned with novelbuddy
What the heck, this jade is commonplace? Ah, what kind of planet is this, Jade Stone Planet?
The homebody witch was flabbergasted.
Although she had heard of worlds where gold or gemstones were as common as dirt, this was honestly the first time she had heard about a world replete with beautiful jade everywhere.
Wow, good gracious, she didn't find any treasure in the warehouse, but who would have thought the world itself was filled with treasures.
...Dorothy in shock...
