"No."
Xu Tianyu heaved a sigh of relief at the system's reply.
His footsteps, which were about to flee, also stopped.
But then again, Gallow used to be a human's friend. Rumor had it that Gallow was a kind-hearted monster, so he shouldn't be hostile to him.
At the same time, he understood why the water element here was so dense. With Gallow here, it would be strange if it wasn't.
But why did Gallow turn himself into a statue? Was he hibernating?
After all, Gallow was an ancient sea monster. He must have some tricks up his sleeve to survive until now.
"System, there is a way to awaken Gallow."
"He is sealed and cannot be awakened."
"Sealed?"
Xu Tianyu was stunned. Someone actually sealed Gallow, who was comparable to a god. Oh my god, what kind of powerhouse was that?
"Host, do you want to break the seal?"
"Yes."
Xu Tianyu said excitedly. If he saved Gallow, he would have another god-like powerhouse by his side. He would be invincible. No one in the entire continent would be his match.
"Breaking the seal will cost 10 million gold coins. Confirm?"
"Damn, it still costs money."
Xu Tianyu was helpless. What he lacked now was money. In the system store.
"Yūki, how much money do we have now?"
Yūki didn't understand why Xu Tianyu suddenly asked this, but as the treasurer, she answered directly.
"A day ago, we just completed a trade with the West Sea Continent and got back more than 7 million gold coins. We also completed a trade with the Southern Barbarians and got a batch of gold mines. If the fuses are made well, we can have 15 million gold coins."
"Very good. Yūki, go back now and bring me 10 million gold coins."
“???”
Yūki was confused, but seeing that he didn't want to answer, she didn't say anything and went back.
Xu Tianyu sat cross-legged in front of Gallow. He tried to communicate with Gallow using his mind power.
"Gallow, can you hear me?"
"Can't you hear me?
Or is it because you can't say it? "
"If you hear me, just make any sound."
"Ah Ah ~"
Soon, Xu Tianyu recovered and a smile appeared on his face.
Jialuo's voice sounded like a child's.
"Jia Luo, wait a moment. I'll help you undo the seal. You just have to be patient for a while."
"Yaya, Yaya."
Hearing Xu Tianyu's words, Jia Luo shouted excitedly, but it did not utter a single word.
"Jialuo, why are you sealed here? Did a dragon seal you?"
Xu Tianyu asked curiously, but Gallow didn't reply. He knew that this was a negative answer, so he asked again.
"Since it's not a dragon, could it be the legendary Demon God?"
"Not really?
It's rare that he's the Elf King. "
…
Xu Tianyu kept talking to Gallow. He could clearly feel that Gallow's attitude towards him had become less guarded.
Xu Tianyu was secretly happy. He also told Gallow about the current situation on the mainland, as well as the changes in the Land of the Wind.
While he was working hard to increase Gallow's favorability, Yūki returned.
Following behind her were Liu Heng and He Sheng.
"Why are you two here? Aren't you supposed to look after the alchemy and steel factories?"
"Hehe, the factories are so easy to operate. We don't need to look after them. Isn't it boring?
Come and take a look. This statue is really big. I wonder what species it is, "Liu Heng said with a smile.
