Continuing to advance deeper into the dense forest, the road gradually disappears and is replaced by countless tall trees and bushes as tall as half a person. The progress becomes more and more difficult...
Judging from the sunlight above our heads, it was now noon, and the tiny rays of sunlight shining through the forest added a bit of a dreamy mood.
but...
Chen Yao was lost now. He didn't know how deep he was now. Looking around, he saw almost the same scene.
And ever since he was discovered by those goblin minions, he had deviated from the originally chosen direction.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, except for the chirping of insects and birds, there was no other sound. This atmosphere made Chen Yao a little bored, so he found a small open space and sat down with his back against a tree trunk to rest.
As soon as he relaxed, strong tiredness came over him. He knew that he couldn't fall asleep, but there seemed to be some magic in this dense forest, which calmed Chen Yao's inner resistance. In addition, after drinking with the dwarves before, Some wine, no one noticed, he fell asleep as soon as his eyes closed...
Chen Yao had a dream...
In front of him was a woman bending down and facing him. Through the scattered sunlight, he could not see the woman's face clearly, but she always felt very familiar. Chen Yao tried hard to get a closer look, and her face became clear instantly. The woman is Sarina! ! !
"Mr. Chen Yao..."
"Sarella!?"
Chen Yao was instantly awakened!
But after waking up, there was only a deep darkness in front of me, and the visibility was extremely low. I could only vaguely see the outlines of some plants and trees.
"It's night? That's not right! There should be light outside at night..."
"Oops!!!"
Chen Yao slapped his forehead and finally remembered that exactly ten days have passed since the last dark day, and today is the second dark day in this star and moon!
"It's over. I can't get out anymore...what should I do..."
--------------------------
At the same time, in the brightly lit Shenmu Town, in the independent attic on the top floor of Wangyue Building, Nora was half-lying on the mahogany table, supporting her head, a little absent-minded...
"Tuk-tuk-tuk!" There was a knock on the door.
"boss..."
"Come in." Xiaojie lowered her head and entered the attic.
"How's it going? Have you heard any news?"
"I asked the owner of the hotel where Mr. Chenyao lives, and he said he hasn't seen him since this morning..."
After hearing Xiaojie’s report, Nora’s brows gradually furrowed...
"That shouldn't be the case. There's no reason why he wouldn't go just because he's avoiding me."
Walking to the window, Nora opened the window and looked at the sky. It was pitch black, extremely dark...
"Let me in! I have something important to see your boss!!"
"Mr. Siwen, please wait!"
There was a noise from downstairs, and Noila looked a little unhappy. She was originally not in a good mood now.
"Go and see what's going on."
"Yes." After receiving the order, Xiaojie hurried downstairs, and soon she returned to the attic with one person.
"Captain Siwen? Why did you come to me so late?"
"At noon today, Chen Yao left the town and said he was going to see the goblin lair, but he hasn't come back yet."
"After asking around for a long time, I heard from Hongsuna that he was coming to your place at night, so I came over to take a look..."
“What?!” Nora was shocked, and the uneasiness in her heart began to spread violently.
"He didn't come to my place, nor did he return to the hotel! Oops, something happened to him?!"
Standing up suddenly, Noila went straight downstairs.
“Boss Nora??”
Siwen hurriedly chased after him.
Tonight in Shenmu Town, the wind is a little noisy...
--------------------------
After rummaging through the binding ring for a long time, Chen Yao took out two cylindrical metal objects...
This thing was removed from the Iron Fist Brothers' equipment before. It seemed to be able to illuminate, but he looked over it several times and didn't know how to activate it. There was a button on the barrel, but after pressing it, Nothing happens.
"Damn, isn't it broken?"
Just when he was distressed, the light curtain of the Tianji box popped up.
[It is detected that a new type of creation is missing from the database...
Request detection entry into database...]
"Testing allowed."
The form of the ring in the hand changed, and the heavenly machine box returned to its original form and floated in front of Chen Yao, emitting a faint blue light.
Chen Yao placed the two cylinders on the surface of the receiver...
Several silver tentacles tied the two cylinders, and integrated the cylinders into the body of the Tianji box as if swallowing...
【checking...
Testing completed...
Creation name: Detachable flashlight, entry into database completed!
It is detected that the item is low on energy. Do you want to replenish it?
Estimated energy consumption is 0.1%x2...The current remaining energy of the sky box is 15.7%...]
"Additions allowed."
[Received, adding...
Energy replenishment completed! The current remaining energy of the Tianji box is 15.5%...]
Two flashlights emerged from the surface of the Tianji box, and Chen Yao took them away.
After some thought, Chen Yao transformed the Tianji box into the form of a long sword and held it in his hand.
Putting away one flashlight, Chen Yao pressed the button on the other flashlight. A beam of light shone from it, and Chen Yao was finally able to see his surroundings clearly.
After determining the direction he was heading, Chen Yao continued to move deeper into the jungle, mainly because in this situation, if he accidentally encountered a Goblin...
After walking forward for a while, Chen Yao kept feeling that there was some faint green light in the distance, not sure if it was his own illusion, but because the light from the flashlight was too strong, it was difficult for him to distinguish it.
Anyway, there is no danger nearby...
After careful consideration, Chen Yao pressed the button to turn off the flashlight.
A sudden darkness hit his eyes at first. After Chen Yao got used to the dark environment a little, Chen Yao finally saw his surroundings clearly...
He was not mistaken, there were indeed dots of green light floating in the air a few meters ahead.
"firefly?"
Carefully touching the green light, Chen Yao gently stretched out his hand to hold it, and then brought his palm to his eyes...
Opening his palm, the green light just stayed quietly in the center of his palm, but Chen Yao couldn't tell what it was. It didn't look like a firefly.
The eye to see the secrets opened, Chen Yao locked the green light in his palm...
--------------------------
Recognition degree: 10% (from contact observation and own plant knowledge)
? ? ? : It seems to be the spores of some kind of plant, which emits a faint green light for unknown reasons.
--------------------------
"Glowing plant spores..."
Chen Yao waved his hand and threw the spores in his hand into the air. The spores first swung violently in the air for a certain distance, then floated steadily and slowly in one direction...
"Um?!"
"Hoo ho~ Master, Master! Where is this place?"
Raya poked her little head out of her pocket...
"Ah! It's so dark! There's still a smell in the air that Raya hates! Well... Raya doesn't like it!"
Hearing this, Chen Yao took out Raya and held it in his palm.
"Can you tell which direction the unpleasant smell is from?"
"Sniff sniff... over there! That's the glowing thing!!" Raya pointed at the green spores floating in the air with her small tentacles.
"Stay there, don't run around, it's so dark, I won't be too lazy to look for you if you lose it!"
"I know, I know!"
Chen Yao stuffed Raya back into his pocket, and after thinking for a moment, he continued moving in the direction of the floating green spores...
Following the spore he had released before, Chen Yao was surprised to find that the deeper he went, the more green spores gathered in the air!
"These spores are obviously not ordinary spores. Since they can gather on their own, there must be something here..."
Following the increasingly brighter and larger green light stream in the sky, Chen Yao continued to go deeper into the gathering point of these spores.
After passing through countless bushes and tall trees, a huge space appeared in front of Chen Yao.
A large number of green spores converged towards a light group in the center from four directions. With the green light emitted by the large number of spores, Chen Yao could vaguely see the general structure of this space.
This is a wide open space in the forest. In the middle of the open space, an extremely huge tree rises from the ground. What is strange is that the tree is close to the ground. The roots supporting the entire giant tree are arched and hollow, with green branches in four directions. The spore light flow also converges here.
If it were daytime, the scene here would be even more shocking, Chen Yao thought.
It took Chen Yao more than ten minutes to reach the root of the giant tree. One can imagine how huge this space is.
Standing at the root of the giant tree and looking up, the entire arched hollow area was probably more than ten meters high. Chen Yao couldn't imagine what the purpose of this space was...
Entering the arched space at the root, Chen Yao arrived at a circular platform in the center with the help of faint light.
The entire high platform is made of unknown stone. Above the stone platform is a wooden bracket with an emerald green bead embedded on the bracket. All the green spores are integrated into this bead and then disappear.
"Sniff...Master! Where are you!"
"I don't know either..."
Raya leaned out and then climbed onto Chen Yao's head. She nervously hid behind Chen Yao's head and stared at the green orb on the high platform.
"Sniff sniff...this is it! The source of Raya's disgusting smell! Ah sneeze! Ah sneeze!!"
This is the first time Chen Yao knows that Raya can still sneeze, but... I have to say, the sneezing little Raya is really cute...
"The air here is filled with a refreshing smell. I think... this bead should have a high concentration of life."
"Laya, if you feel uncomfortable, you can go back first, eh?"
Chen Yao grabbed the little guy off the top of her head and wiped her nose carefully.
"All right..."
Chen Yao put Raya into his pocket and cautiously approached the high platform...
