"…It's so hot!"
Fey couldn't help but wipe her sweat away. The steam rising from all directions seemed to be draining her body of water. It had been about 20 minutes since she entered this damned place, but she felt like she had run a two-hour marathon.
This was a large stretch of deep red plains. The ground beneath his feet was made of black and red rocks. On the plains, there were dozens of riverbeds of different depths. However, what flowed in these riverbeds was not flowing river water, but boiling hot lava.
These lava rivers cut the entire plain into countless irregular shapes, causing those who stepped on the plain to only be able to advance on a twisted path with seven turns and eight turns. In the middle of this endless plain, there stood a towering altar. That altar that was completely made of black stone was the target of Qin Feng and the others.
However, after trekking in this godforsaken place for more than 20 minutes, the distance between them and the altar had been reduced by less than half. Fey felt dizzy when she thought about how this trek would last for another 20 minutes.
Of course, Fey wasn't the only one in this situation. The others weren't in a good condition either. Safely's face was covered in a layer of red. Even though her expression hadn't changed much, she would occasionally let out heavy breaths that were filled with heat. This clearly showed that her body wasn't in a good condition.
Alice was a puppet, so she wasn't affected much. She had already started flying ten minutes ago. After all, holding such a large puppet in her arms would cause a lot of heat. Alice was holding a small fan that appeared out of nowhere and was trying her best to fan Fey…
Although this little bit of wind was not enough in this place where the heat was pressing from all directions, at least it was better than nothing.
Other than that, Qin Feng's reaction was pretty good. After all, his equipment, the Mobile Church-the Evangelism of Truth, had the effect of eliminating abnormal environmental damage. In theory, as long as he stuffed his entire body into the monk's robe and jumped into the lava, he could swim twice. This little heat was naturally not a problem.
In stark contrast to Qin Feng was a certain big cat... That's right, Ai Lu, who was naturally heat-resistant and more sensitive to environmental changes than humans, had now turned her eyes around and let Qin Feng carry her on his back.
Fortunately, this cat wasn't very tall. Moreover, because it was a cat, its body was unbelievably light. Carrying it on his back didn't cause too much of a burden to Qin Feng. It just made Qin Feng a little unsure whether to laugh or cry.
However, while they were on their way, a piercing bird cry suddenly came from the sky. A huge crow with burning sparks on its wings flapped its wings and swooped down on the three of them and the cat. However, before it could do anything, the impatient Safely raised her right hand without even raising her head…
" Atmospheric Explosion!!!"
As a result, the crow let out a blood-curdling cry. After losing half of its wings, it fell from the sky and fell straight into the lava river. Without even flapping its wings, its entire body was engulfed in flames as it screamed in pain.
This was a double challenge for both physical and mental strength. It was the second test after the appetizer of the cave maze. It was a real test that would kill one if one was not careful.
" Oh, really, this is simply…" Seeing that the altar was still far away, and everyone's pace had slowed down by 20% compared to the initial pace, Safely couldn't help but reach out her hand and pinch a beautiful stone in her palm.
It seemed that Safiley had made up her mind to use the Elven Stone to do something. However, before she could do anything, Qin Feng called out to her," I suggest we keep this trump card. The current situation is just that we're losing our stamina. We can still endure it for a while if we grit our teeth. However, the battle after this won't be something that can be dealt with just by clenching our teeth..."
After hearing this, Safiley smiled bitterly and put away the Elven Stone in her hand.
Although Qin Feng wanted to help, the Mobile Church was a bound equipment, so he couldn't take it off and lend it to Fey, who had the lowest Stamina. On the way, Qin Feng had tried to use magic to create ice cubes, but the effect wasn't ideal. It was basically a waste of mana.
Just like that, after another 30 minutes of trekking, the few of them finally successfully stepped onto the huge altar in the middle of the plain.
"Ahhh, I almost thought I was going to become a salted fish!”
Fey, who was lying on the altar, panted heavily. She didn't know why, but the moment she stepped onto the altar, the oppressive heat around her disappeared without a trace. It was as if the altar had isolated itself from the outside world.
Although the principle was unknown, it was indeed good news that he did not have to endure the damn heat anymore.
" Hehe, thank you for your hard work, everyone. Come, quickly eat this…"
Although it wasn't that hot anymore, he wouldn't be able to recover his lost stamina in a short period of time. If he were to ascend the altar in this state, it would be difficult for him to deal with the following problems. Therefore, Qin Feng immediately took out three beans that were glowing with a faint yellow light from his Character Bag and handed them to Safely and Fey. Naturally, he stuffed the last one into the mouth of Elu, who was already on the verge of delirium.
These bean-like things were the great medicine that Qin Feng had obtained from the VIP gift bag previously. It was a medicine that could restore full HP and blue and eliminate all abnormal statuses!
[Item Name: Immortal Bean]
[Item Type: Consumable]
[Item Description: I don't believe that anyone doesn't recognize this item!]
[Remark: Every time I think about how a certain fatty ate half a jar of immortal beans alone in the early stages, and how there was a severe shortage of immortal beans in the later stages, and how two people shared one, I feel that the " plot kill " is terrifying…]
"What is this?" Gasping for air, Safiley took the immortal bean from Qin Feng with a strange expression. However, she didn't think much about it before stuffing it into her mouth. After all, it was just a bean. However, who would have thought that when she bit it, the bean would melt into a clear stream and enter her throat. Immediately, Safiley's entire body trembled. She raised her hands in disbelief and looked at her palms. The stamina that she had consumed earlier had actually been completely recovered. Her current condition was unbelievably good.
"Hey, this kind of thing…if we sell it on the market, the price will be incredible!”
Qin Feng smiled calmly in the face of Safely's judgment."Hehe, it's a pity that the value of this thing can't be measured with money ~"
Savily immediately agreed with Qin Feng's statement. In fact, taking the drug could solve the problem. However, since the journey would take at least an hour, it meant that one person would have to consume three bottles of drug. Not to mention that the drug in Qin Feng's hand could not withstand this drinking method, from a practical point of view, it was more cost-effective to take the immortal beans.
After all, the potion only consumed Stamina. Although it could speed up Mana recovery, it couldn't keep up with the large consumption of Mana while everyone was grinding monsters. It was better to just use a Celestial Bean after arriving at the place and end it all.
Of course, the other reason was that Qin Feng felt that the immortal beans might start to germinate if he kept them in his personal inventory. He should use them quickly…
After eating the immortal beans, everyone was back to their peak condition. Fey, in particular, was practically resurrected on the spot. At this moment, she was moving her shoulders energetically, completely different from her half-dead appearance just now. Elu, on the other hand, was rubbing her tail with a pained expression. The heat had dried up the fur on her tail.
"Alright, don't be sad. I'll buy you two bottles of high-quality hair conditioner later. You can make do with it for now…"
This sentence successfully lifted the spirits of the dejected cat girl and she replied with an energetic " Oh."
" Then, the problem now is the thing on the altar…"
Safely raised her head and looked up at the top of the stairs. That was their final destination.
However, apart from the things on the altar, there was another problem. Beluffiglu had also entered the elven ruins. God knew where she was now and what her final goal was. This was really worrying.
"Well, there's no point in thinking too much. Let's go up and take a look ~"
Qin Feng's proposal was naturally passed by everyone. A group of people took a step towards the altar. The stairs themselves were not high, and the connection between the steps was very smooth. In any case, climbing up was much easier than walking on the plains just now.
About five minutes later, the group reached the top of the altar. The scene changed drastically the moment they stepped on the altar. At the top of the altar, there were three sculptures arranged in a triangle. In the middle of the three sculptures stood a stone pillar carved with unknown runes.
The three sculptures were all about ten meters tall. One was black, one was white, and one was gray. They were all shaped like huge dogs with sharp teeth. The huge dogs were realistic and had complete fur. There was a ferocious aura hidden in their eyes, as if they were about to devour someone at any time!
"…Meow!"
This thing, of course, greatly stimulated Elu. The little thing jumped back on all fours and landed on the ground. It raised its head and let out a threatening roar at the three statues in front of it.
"Hey, it's just a statue. There's no need to be so nervous, right?”
Fey asked in confusion. Qin Feng and Safely nodded at each other. After which, Qin Feng took out his silver-white longbow while Safely unsheathed her sword. The two of them got into a stance.
"Well, there are usually some preserved items in these ruins. I've seen a lot when I was traveling all over the world. Everyone, pay attention and prepare to start the monsters!”
After hearing Qin Feng's words, the three stone statues that were frozen suddenly began to emit bursts of light. Their lively dog eyes began to emit a dangerous red light…
