★Side Quest 4: Stardust Fun: Raccoon Dogs Compete for Rare Treasures

The "treasure spots" of the two people (beasts) soon piled up into a small pile, with very different styles and almost the same value.

The competition is becoming more intense and the atmosphere is getting more tense.

Every time he sees that the other person has found something good, he will give them a provocative look that says "that's just so-so".

The drone camera perfectly captured their every smug expression, every stomping of frustration, and every spark that flew as they passed by, causing the audience in the starship to laugh continuously, and supporters of both sides of the betting also began to tease each other.

"Look! Jin Yuanbao has found another energy crystal! The purity is so high! My energy block is stable!" Tong Shishan cheered.

"Humph, energy crystals are easy to obtain, but ancient coins are hard to find! What the Golden Raccoon Dog found is of historical value!" Aunt Gu argued.

"Awoo!" (Mouse, dig quickly!)

"Clang!" (Come on, raccoon dog!)

Just when the game was halfway through and the two little beasts were a little out of breath but still refused to relax, an accident happened!

Deep within the Stardust Garden, in an area composed of giant, hollow stalagmites of star debris, something lay quietly in the center of one of the thickest stalagmites, its top resembling a lotus pedestal.

It was a crystal stone about the size of a fist, completely round, and emitting a flowing and shifting three-color glow (gold, silver, and purple)!

It is not embedded anywhere, but just naturally floats in the cavity at the center of the stalagmite, slowly rotating.

An extremely restrained, yet majestic and pure strange fluctuation, a mixture of the triple attributes of energy, matter and space, emanated from the inside of the crystal like the breath of a sleeping giant beast!

"Three-color star core?!"

Inside the starship, Tong Jiaqi, who was analyzing live data, suddenly stood up. For the first time, her cold, mechanical voice was tinged with shock. "The legendary singularity crystal that is born with an extremely small probability when a star annihilates? Containing the triple properties of the star's essence? Its value... is inestimable!"

Almost at the same time Tong Jiaqi exclaimed!

……

**Golden Raccoon Perspective:**

“Hiss! What…what kind of treasure is this?!”

The golden raccoon had just used its magical powers to sense the heart-pounding golden origin and the material fluctuations as thick as stars inside the stalagmite. Its magical power of turning stones into gold was like encountering a king, and it actually produced a slight resonance and... a hint of instinctive awe!

"Mine! It absolutely belongs to me!" The immense temptation instantly overwhelmed its mind! With only the tricolor light in its eyes, it completely forgot about the competition and the danger. It transformed into a streak of golden light and rushed straight towards the tallest stalagmite!

……

**Gold Ingot Perspective:**

“Squeak, squeak, squeak—!!! It smells so good! It smells so good! It’s never smelled so good before!!”

Jin Yuanbao's little nose was about to explode! The extremely pure energy fluctuations and the mysterious spatial aura were the ultimate irresistible temptation for it!

It can even see the colorful precious light column emanating from the top of the stalagmite, which is rising into the sky and only it can "see"!

"Baby! The ultimate baby!" It went completely crazy, its speed soared to the limit, like a golden lightning that tore through the stardust, and its target was also the stalagmite!

"Oh no! They are targeting the same person!" Tong Shishan exclaimed!

"The structure of that stalagmite is unstable!" Xuantian's steady voice carried a hint of warning.

However, the warning was too late!

Two golden figures, one on the left and one on the right, rushed to the foot of the huge stalagmite almost at the same time!

There was no communication, no hesitation, only the suspended three-colored star core in his eyes!

"Get out of here, you country rat! This is mine!" The golden raccoon roared, and a beam of khaki light shot towards the root of the stalagmite, trying to directly "enlighten" a passage!

"Squeak! You're dreaming! The glittering thing is mine!" Jin Yuanbao screamed, and his small body burst out with amazing jumping power, and he actually wanted to climb directly up the smooth stalagmite wall!

Boom!

The golden raccoon's magical beam hit the fragile structure at the root of the stalagmite!

The huge stalagmite, which was already structurally unstable due to the internal cavity, suddenly shook violently!

The gravel at the top fell down!

"Ah——!" Jin Yuanbao, who was trying hard to climb, screamed and almost fell down!

"Be careful!" The golden raccoon was also frightened by this sudden change and subconsciously stopped attacking.

At this moment of stagnation——

hum!

The suspended three-colored star core seemed to sense the external energy impact and space vibration, and the three-colored light inside suddenly lit up!

An invisible, powerful repulsive field exploded!

boom!boom!

It was like being hit by two invisible hammers!

The golden raccoon and the golden ingot were completely defenseless and were thrown away with screams at the same time by the powerful repulsive force!

They transformed into two golden meteors and fell awkwardly into the thick stardust mud in the distance, splashing mud all over the sky!

"Squeak, squeak! It hurts so much!" Jin Yuanbao struggled out of the mud, becoming a "mud rat", wiping his face in grievance.

"Pah! My fur!" The golden raccoon dog was not in a much better condition. Its shiny golden fur was covered with sticky stardust, and it looked in a mess.

Seeing the other party in the same miserable state as themselves, and then looking at the stalagmite that was still shaking, with three-colored light flowing on the top, as if mocking them, the two little beasts were stunned.

"Pfft..."

Inside the starship, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud first.

Then, as if laughing drug was ignited, the entire cabin erupted in deafening laughter!

"Hahaha! Two funny guys!"

"Stealing the chicken will end up losing the rice!"

"Synchronized flight, perfect landing!"

Tong Shishan laughed so hard that she slapped the table, and Tong Jiaqi's alloy shell was shaking slightly.

Rong Mama and Gu Mama couldn't help laughing, shaking their heads. Feiyue grinned (if dogs could grin), and Fantian let out a pleasant cry.

Even Xuantian shook his head.

Tuan Tuan was even more happy, calling "Woo~Woo~" and rolling around at A Cai's feet.

Golden Raccoon Dog and Golden Ingot listened to the laughter coming from the starship (the drone had its own sound transmission system), looked at each other's funny mud monkey appearances, and the anger and greed in their eyes were gradually replaced by an unspeakable shame and embarrassment.

They glared at each other, snorted at the same time and turned their heads away, but the tense atmosphere inexplicably eased a lot.

"Alright, two little idiots."

Ah Cai's smiling voice came through the drone, "Time is almost up.

That 'three-color star core' is not something you can touch now, it has its own will.

Come back, count the harvest, and prepare for the awards ceremony!"

The two little beasts were dejected and flew back to the star ship in shame, covered in star dust and mud and the treasures they had found.
