He was tired today and Chu Rui didn't want to go to a dangerous place like the Lava Forest. According to the Blue Dragon, that place wasn't as simple as the Polar Glacier. It was better to wait until tomorrow and recharge his energy before doing anything else.
Lava Forest, Sky Lava Volcano!
Not only were these two places dangerous, but the temperature was also extremely high. Even in Lava City, the temperature was already around 40 to 50 degrees Celsius. This was already considered extremely hot. For humans, this temperature was almost the limit. If it was any higher, it would be very dangerous.
Even though Chu Rui had the Ice Dragon Leather Armor and the Ice Dragon Scales on his body, he would feel cool. The Lava Forest might not be a problem, but the Sky Lava Volcano where Rosefinch was located was a big problem. If it was the Lava Forest, the temperature would be around 60 to 70 degrees Celsius at most. However, in the heart of the volcano, the temperature was hard to say, but it would at least exceed 100 degrees Celsius. Such intense heat was simply unbearable.
Even though he had bought a lot of anti-heat potions and tools in Lava City, because he had helped the entire city. City Lord Zhu Dazhuang had given him the best goods, but this could only help a little and couldn't completely offset the heat. Chu Rui was also very annoyed. If he went in rashly, he might not even be able to reach Rosefinch. He might die from the heat or dehydration.
But now, Chu Rui had no other choice. Plus, time was tight, so he could only brace himself and go. However, these were only his conjectures. It was hard to say what the situation in the Sky Lava Volcano was.
He couldn't go today. His body and mind were a little tired. He couldn't go to battle, but he could still do other things. It just so happened that the matter in Earth Desert City hadn't been settled yet. He could go and settle it first.
With a Town Return Scroll, Chu Rui instantly appeared in the ruined square of Earth Desert City.
"What's the situation?"
His vision changed. Chu Rui, who had just opened his eyes, suddenly saw the unbelievable scene around him.
What the f * ck is going on?
Previously, when they flew over, they were extremely withered and dispirited. There was not even a shadow of a ghost. They could only see two or three kittens squatting in those dilapidated shops. However, this time, there was a f * cking sea of people flying over. How much time had passed? It hasn't even been a day, right? Why is there such a huge difference between now and then?
Wait a minute, there are only NPCs here, not a single player.
"Lord True God!"
"Lord True God!"
"Lord True God!"
"…"
Seeing Chu Rui appear, all of the NPCs surrounding the resurrection point in the plaza knelt down and cheered loudly, their expressions extremely fanatical.
Lord True God?
I'm a True God?
The corner of Chu Rui's mouth twitched and his face darkened. F * ck, why do I feel like this is some kind of cult?
"Earth Desert City's current City Lord, Tuhao, greets Lord True God!"
At the very front was an old man with a white beard. He led a group of guards who looked like they had just returned from a refugee camp, and they were all kneeling down respectfully.
Nouveau riche?
Your dad's name is really awesome!
Chu Rui rolled his eyes and complained in his heart.
"Why is City Lord like this? Please get up quickly, please get up quickly! "
No matter how much Chu Rui's balls hurt, he did not understand the situation in front of him. However, the words of the old man in front of him were heard clearly. He was the City Lord of Earth Desert City, and also the purpose of Chu Rui's visit. He had to get the exact location of Xuanwu from this old man, as well as the shortest route to advance.
"Thank you, Lord True God!"
The City Lord was helped up by Chu Rui, and when the residents of Earth Desert City saw that the City Lord had stood up, they also stood up one by one. Everyone stood up, but their eyes were extremely sincere, like the craziest religious fanatics looking at their own beliefs.
"City Lord, I wonder why you call me 'Lord True God'?"
Chu Rui was very puzzled, so he asked the City Lord. What the hell is this religion? Don't put me on a pedestal. What the hell, if the Divine Dragon Emperor found out, he would use the excuse of wanting to split the country, creating a cult or something. Then wouldn't I die unjustly?
"The benevolent Saint God of Xuanwu once sent down an oracle, saying that in the near future, a merciful warrior will come to this desert country and save us from hell. This True God sent down by the heavens to save us will give us delicious food, sweet water, and a fulfilling life. He will let us escape from this nightmare of a life, and let us live a happy and prosperous life in the future. … Our ancestors believed in the words of the Saint God of Xuanwu. We have been waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting for my generation, and it has been thousands of years. Originally, our Earth Desert City had the help of the Divine Dragon Holy Court, but a thousand years ago, the desert became bigger and bigger, and the monsters in the desert became stronger and stronger. Since then, we have lost contact with other cities. "
"A thousand years, a thousand years! We have been living a hellish life. The originally rich and fertile Earth Desert City has now declined to such a state. Our compatriots have also declined sharply from tens of millions to only a few hundred thousand today. We believed in the words of the Saint God of Xuanwu and waited and waited. But it has been so long, so long. The True God who can save us has not appeared. Not long ago, the last spring in the city dried up. Many of our compatriots are in despair, truly in despair. Without water, we have no way to live. In this desert, Earth Desert City is a lonely city. It has already lost all its vitality. There is no future, no hope. "
"However, just as we are facing death. Lord True God, you have finally come. It is you who has saved us! The food you gave us before, this old man has seen it. It is a supreme delicacy called 'steamed buns' recorded by our ancestors. With those sweet and delicious steamed buns, all of our people have come back to life. It has not only brought us food to fill our stomachs, but it has also brought us hope to live, a new future. "
The rich City Lord had snot and tears. He was already so old, but at this moment, he was sobbing like a child.
Chu Rui suddenly felt his heart heavy. He had been to many places and seen many things. In those places of war, he was used to seeing people panicking, numb people, people who quietly ended their lives, people who released the darkness in their hearts and became beasts …
They were all people who were forced into a desperate situation and lost hope and light. It was hard to imagine what would make a normal person walk down such a path. If it was not true despair, if it was not true that there was no hope, they would not be like this!
