The night was very beautiful. The murmurs between lovers were like summer insects lingering in the faint water vapor. The crackling of the bonfire seemed to have ignited even more ambiguity.
Ye Ci and Fleeting Time had drunk quite a bit of wine. Both of them were slightly tipsy, but at the same time, they were very sober. They sat by a rock and chatted with each other. Ever since Ye Ci had started leveling up again, the amount of time they could spend together could be counted with one hand. Fleeting Time picked up a roasted rabbit from the bonfire and pulled out a dagger from his waist. He sliced the rabbit into small pieces and handed them to Ye Ci. Ye Ci accepted the delectable rabbit meat without hesitation. She looked at the dagger in Fleeting Time's hand, and felt a tinge of regret. That dagger was at least an Orange grade equipment, and it should have been of greater use. If daggers had feelings, they would definitely cry.
Fleeting Time, of course, was not as bored as Ye Ci. He picked up another rabbit and asked while slicing the meat, "Did Breeze look for you today?"
"How did you know?" Ye Ci was puzzled. Fleeting Time was supposed to be fighting Breeze when I met him today. How did he know?
"Oh, a friend of mine in Golden Era told me that Breeze went to look for you today." Fleeting Time replied.
Ye Ci nodded. It was common for large guilds to plant spies in other guilds. She believed that Golden Era had spies in Genesis, and Genesis had spies in Golden Era as well. There was nothing strange about that. She let out a sigh, "Breeze told me that Golden Era is leaving Fate."
"Huh?" Fleeting Time was surprised, but it did not affect his work. He raised his head and looked at Ye Ci before he lowered his head and continued slicing the rabbit meat, "Wow, this is really something. Genesis let so many people into the guild, but no one found out about it."
Ye Ci snorted at Fleeting Time, "It's a secret. You should've at least let them keep it a secret for a few days. How can it still be called a secret if you know about it right after the decision is made?"
"You're right." Fleeting Time never refuted Ye Ci's words. He smiled at Ye Ci and changed the topic, "Do you want some fruit? I brought some coconut milk from Hero City. "
"You're really rich. You're willing to buy such expensive fruits? What a waste." Ye Ci took the fruit from Fleeting Time. she complained, but she had no intention of saving the fruit.
"Money is for my wife to spend. It's not a waste." Ye Ci was a little embarrassed by Fleeting Time's words. She coughed and changed the topic awkwardly, "Breeze asked us to recruit players from Golden Era Up Everyday. I refused."
"This is a good thing for the guild. Why did you refuse?"
"First of all, I'm not involved in the guild's affairs. It's better to look for Bai Mo. Second of all, who knows what Breeze is up to. I'm not afraid that he'll harm me, but it's better to be safe than sorry."
Fleeting Time smiled without saying a word.
In fact, on such a night, there was no need to say anything. Just the two of them sitting like this was a kind of beauty.
Life would continue as usual tomorrow. Fleeting Time had his own matters to attend to, and Ye Ci had her own matters to attend to, and Ye Ci had her own matters to attend to. They would have to go their separate ways once the sun rose, and a night like this was very precious.
The sky was scorching hot. Ye Ci felt as if the air was on fire as it rolled across her exposed skin. It was so painful that it felt as if a string of blisters were about to form on her skin. Ye Ci stood at the edge of the cliff, cursing Naga under her breath. Why did he choose a place like this as his base? She lowered her head and looked at the lava beneath her feet. It was a pool of lava that bubbled with fiery red bubbles from time to time. Ye Ci shifted her feet, and a rock fell from her feet. With a puff, the rock disappeared into thin air, leaving behind only a trail of smoke. Ye Ci rolled her eyes. She knew that Fate was a very realistic game, but it had its downsides as well. Take the current situation for example. If she were to fall into the lava, she would not even be able to retrieve her corpse.
Ye Ci cursed Naga once again. Can't you be a little more creative? Why did you have to build your base in a place like this? Aren't you afraid that you'll turn into a barbeque?
Despite her complaints, she still had to complete the quest. She drank another bottle of Heat Resistance Potion and continued forward. She lifted her head and sighed when she saw the skeleton-like hole at the top of the mountain. She thought to herself, I'm going to waste a lot of potions if I continue on like this …
By the time she had used up half of her potions, she had finally arrived at the entrance of the cave. She stuck her head out and looked into the cave. It was not as craggy as she had imagined, but a spacious cave that did not fit in with its surroundings. Not only was it spacious, it was also very luxurious. There were stairs, railings, indoor fountains, and sculptures. It was no different from the most luxurious western palaces Ye Ci could imagine. However, the place was covered in a thick layer of dust. It was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time. Ye Ci walked into the hole. There was a faint light in the palace. When she entered, she realized that the dust in the place could not be described with the word 'thick'. She stepped on the dust and left a deep footprint on the ground.
Heavens, judging from the thickness of the dust, this place had been empty for quite some time. If it was not a few hundred years, it would be at least a few decades, or even longer.
Wouldn't such a situation increase the difficulty of finding the item? Ye Ci walked deeper into the palace. She could not help but cover her mouth and nose with her hand. The dust was almost choking her to death. However, she did not dare to cough, as she was afraid that she would inhale even more dust. Fortunately, there were no monsters in the palace. If she fought here, even if she did not die, she would suffocate to death from the dust.
The palace was very large. Ye Ci kept running upward. Her footsteps were light, and she tried her best not to raise more dust. Along the way, there was nothing but dim yellow lights that had been on for who knew how long. It was as desolate as a graveyard. This place was very different from the Demon King's lair that Ye Ci had imagined. Based on her past experience, the Demon King's lair was usually crowded with magical beasts. There were corpses and bones everywhere, countless wandering souls, and the smell of decay. However, there was nothing here. There was no challenge at all. It was really, really annoying.
When Ye Ci received this quest, Ye Ci was a little excited. After all, fighting every day was tiring. She also wanted to challenge a low-intelligence but strong PVE BOSS. Since she was going to the Demon King's lair, there would naturally be a fierce battle. Ye Ci excitedly prepared a bag full of items. In the end, she did not use anything except anti-burn potions. She did not even use a health potion. This feeling was really annoying. It was like watching a TV show where the male and female lead were blushing as they prepared for 18 + sports. Just as they were about to reach the target, the two of them suddenly smiled at the audience and said loudly, "Actually, we were just fooling around!"
Wasn't this feeling driving people crazy? Ye Ci did not know what others thought, but she was going crazy.
With nowhere to vent her anger, Ye Ci could only rush up to the highest floor of the building. She scoured every nook and cranny of the building, hoping that she could find something to make up for her displeasure. Very quickly, she reached the last level. The last floor was an extremely spacious hall. There were two rows of thick pillars, and at the deepest part of the hall stood a tall throne. The throne's design was very simple. Other than the high back, it stood out from the crowd.
However, the thing that attracted Ye Ci's attention the most was not the throne, but the stone platforms on both sides of the throne. Ye Ci was suddenly driven by a strong desire to explore the stone platforms. What's there? Ye Ci slowly walked to the edge of the stone platforms. Her pupils suddenly shrank.
There were nine weapons neatly arranged on the platform. These were the weapons of the nine classes. Furthermore, the moment Ye Ci saw these weapons, she could almost guess who these weapons belonged to.
"Ah ah, I knew you would be interested in these." Just as Ye Ci was staring at these weapons, a leisurely voice suddenly sounded behind her. Ye Ci immediately shot out and drew her bow. This series of actions was completed in the blink of an eye. It was done in one breath. After doing all this, Ye Ci finally saw who the person was. Other than Naga, who else could it be?
Ye Ci sighed and slowly put away her weapon. She looked at Naga and asked, "Why don't you make a sound when you walk?"
"Make a sound when I walk? How do you want a spirit to make a sound when she walks? Why don't you make a sound for me to see? " After getting familiar with Naga, Ye Ci realized that no matter how terrifying the rumors said Naga was, at least the current Naga was a rather immature fellow. It was as though when he stared at her and said those words, he was no different from a rebellious child. (To be continued.)
