Join the ServerNeedless to say, the tracking and amplification antenna—as Xueli had told us—was something they had secretly placed on the big eyeballs to monitor them.
Since we couldn’t read the information inside, we could only stow it away, hoping it would add a bit of weight to our defense.
Then, there was the only substantial gain from this battle besides experience and materials.
[Resurrection Technique ω]
Resurrection technique butt.
Yes, I really didn’t misread it. Resurrection Technique ω, in Chinese pinyin, is fuhuoshupigu.
I know that letter is called mu, but the system insisted on making it pigu. It’s not a mistake on my part.
[Resurrection Technique ω, for Fallen Elf clan priest to learn. Effect: Resurrects the target’s butt.]
[Note: A mysterious spell left by some great power, one of the Resurrection Technique series. Must be used with the full set of resurrection skills. To resurrect a male, you need an additional Resurrection Technique β; to resurrect a female, you need an additional Resurrection Technique ∑.]
What a terrible skill…
It’s extremely rare to obtain resurrection techniques in this game, with very harsh conditions. I could understand that, but I never expected the difficulty to lie here… That is, you need to collect the entire set to resurrect someone.
Twitching my mouth, I threw the item into my backpack. Yingning and I continued forward—there was only one path ahead, so we didn’t need to struggle with where to go.
I was a bit puzzled why the strength difference among these big eyeballs was so huge. Remember that big eyeball that Alexis faced? Shermi had relied on it, and it was equivalent to a Saint rank!
Did this thing also have talent differences like humans? Or did it simply become stronger or weaker depending on its opponent, so the ones we faced were so weak?
Impossible to understand. It seemed we needed more information.
We continued forward, and what came into view was still the inferno that filled the entire world. Except for the path we walked on, everything else was shrouded in flames.
Red sky, blazing houses and trees—the flames seemed endless, burning in a balanced state.
If our purpose here was to collect evidence of the existence of other-dimensional creatures, I think the video data we had already gathered was visually shocking enough.
But it still wasn’t enough to prove that these big eyeballs were the culprits behind the destruction of Mino City. We had to find convincing evidence that these guys destroyed the city, not Alexis!
Xueli said there might be evidence here. Shermi had clearly surrendered to these eyeballs, and the marks on the teleportation gate showed a connection. Indeed, we had found the culprits.
But Yingning and I were confused: even though we knew who the culprits were, we had no evidence to prove it!
The only boss that could speak couldn’t do anything but rage. We wasted half a day trying to get information but got nothing.
Everywhere here was fire. After the previous wave of monsters, we didn’t encounter any more as we went deeper. Now, we had no idea where the clues might be.
Moreover, the scorching heat was unbearable… But even if we wanted to return to the Adu Continent, we didn’t know how. The recall skill was blacked out, and even the skill to cancel pet summoning was blacked out.
We kept walking, I don’t know for how long, still surrounded by hot orange-yellow.
“Ahhhh—No!!!”
The heart-wrenching scream from not far ahead instantly put Yingning and me on high alert!
We dashed forward, climbed over a dry hill, and saw a man surrounded by big eyeballs.
The man was in agony. His body was wrapped in blazing red flames. A big eyeball, smaller than a ball, the size of a soccer ball, and fiery, was firmly attached to his chest, trying to burrow into it. It had already succeeded halfway.
“Get off! Get off! Get out! No! Don’t! I’d rather die! Ahhhh——”
Without hesitation, Yingning and I charged down the hill, heading straight for the encirclement.
Even if there were two purple-name bosses ahead, we didn’t care! The man before us was the only human we had found in this fiery world! Without a doubt, he was the clue we were looking for! The only breakthrough!
“Oath of Yilai—Blade!” Yingning shouted softly. The profession artifact necklace on her chest trembled slightly, shooting a sharp cold light onto the [Fire Old Lady Not Happy at All] in her hand.
[State ‘Blade’: Weapon attack increased to 200%, each attack adds 300 true damage, defense reduced to 50%.]
Clearly, the girl also realized the urgency of the situation.
[Moon Goddess’s Secondary Blessing]
I decisively used my newly learned mid-tier buff skill, but I couldn’t help complaining about the lazy Moon Goddess who designed the skill names.
[Earth Control]
[Light Snow]
[Fairy Wind]
I unleashed a quality three-combo. At this moment, the team of big eyeballs in front finally turned their gazes in unison toward us.
“New lower-class Adunder? Sending fertilizer endlessly! Get them! Eat them!”
Without large-scale attacks, this was terrible. Soon, this RPG game would turn into a bullet-hell game.
The only choice was to go melee and unleash chaos!
I decisively closed in, following Yingning into the monster group. Using the other big eyeballs as meat shields, my health line was temporarily stable, with no danger.
Yingning took the lead, cutting through like a blade, instantly closing in on that man while shouting: “Hold on! How can I help you?”
“Kill me! Kill me! Kill me—ahhhh——”
Unfortunately, as soon as the man finished speaking, the fire suddenly surged, and in an instant, he was reduced to zero.
“Ahhhh—Our people are ahead! Save them!”
“Ahhhh—The Alliance won’t let you off!”
The rising flames cut off the man’s last hope of survival. In an instant, he was burned to a black crisp.
But after his corpse was completely consumed by the flames, something fell to the ground. Yingning grabbed it with quick eyes and hands.
It was a nameplate, with strong heat resistance and not melted by the fire. But it was still very hot, and Yingning kept losing health while holding it.
[Safen Alliance Dimensional Exploration Team, Group 19]
On the back of the nameplate was a line of engraved small characters: “I’ll wait for you to come back and get married —by Ali.”
Unfortunately, that girl named Ali couldn’t wait for her fiancé. And after so many years, who knows if she’s still waiting.
Fortunately, we’ll avenge you!
“Don’t get tangled! Break through! The clues are ahead! Prioritize saving people!”
