Chapter 166 -165: Burp~ (3rd update! Vote for monthly tickets! Subscribe!)

The crimson crystal barely had time to be scanned by Jiang Qiao before it entered self-destruct mode.

The explosion’s energy was likely to destroy the player base area not far from here.

So, at the critical moment, Jiang Qiao possessed Hai Lan, who was in a ghost state, onto his own Wind Spirit.

“It’s all on you now, Hai Lan Beast!” Jiang Qiao tossed out the Wind Spirit, which was invisible at the moment of being thrown.

Therefore, the players couldn’t see clearly what was flying out.

“Why me again… Ow.” Hai Lan yelled but the next second instinctively opened her mouth and swallowed the crimson crystal.

After swallowing it, Hai Lan slowly floated up from the end of the Obsidian path, and Jiang Qiao saw her cheeks suddenly puff up, then she started to chew.

Crunch, crunch—the sound came from her mouth, and Hai Lan’s expression went from puzzled, as if she was tasting whether the thing was delicious or not, but as she chewed, it seemed to become more intense, just like chewing gum. After a moment of puffing her cheeks, she swallowed what was in her mouth.

Jiang Qiao really wanted to ask what the flavor of the crimson crystal was, but the game’s dramatic effect was indispensable. The players knew those things would explode, so they had to explode, or else this instance would be far less thrilling, and the players would miss out on the fun.

So when the players noticed that the crystal had suddenly disappeared, Jiang Qiao gently snapped his fingers. The moment he did, Hai Lan had just swallowed the crimson crystal, and incidentally burped.

Hai Lan never expected to burp, especially in front of her proxy holy spirits. Even though the holy spirits couldn’t see her, she covered her mouth.

But that burp was no small matter—it was truly a dragon’s roar that shook mountains and rivers. A visible explosion wave spread out, directly destroying the tottering Obsidian path.

The destruction progressed at a speed that was neither fast nor slow, giving the players plenty of time to escape.

Some of the seasoned players had already summoned their mounts, and Jiang Qiao also summoned his fastest mount, Fatty Chirp.

“Grab my hand!” Jiang Qiao, riding Fatty Chirp, ran up to Zhao Mingwei and Yelena.

Fatty Chirp’s maximum carrying capacity was four people, meaning this little fat bird was actually a four-seat supercar.

Grab what? The feathers of this fat bird?

When Yelena saw this, she might have jumped on immediately if Jiang Qiao had ridden up on a war horse.

But the problem was Jiang Qiao was riding a bird so fat that she couldn’t even see where its legs were!

Would it really not roll on the ground when it ran?

Yelena had no more time for hesitation as the collapsing Obsidian path was about to reach her. Zhao Mingwei directly grabbed Yelena’s collar and together they jumped onto the back of Jiang Qiao’s Fatty Chirp.

“Great god, brother, we are good to go,” Zhao Mingwei crouched down on the bird’s back, while Yelena buried her face into Fatty Chirp’s fluffy golden feathers.

The feel to the touch… was actually quite nice? But the question was, could this chicken really run?

“Master… Master!” When Yelena opened her eyes again, she saw the collapsing Obsidian path was already perilously close behind.

“Alright, hold on tight,” Jiang Qiao checked the rider count, only two. As an NPC, Yelena did not count as a rider, only as cargo. She could indeed fall off.

“Hold on to what?” Yelena turned her head to look at Jiang Qiao, who had taken out a glowing carrot and placed it on a fishing rod before tossing it in front of Fatty Chirp.

Upon seeing the golden carrot, Fatty Chirp let out a cry somewhere between an eagle and a rooster, and then… there was no after.

Yelena felt a strong push, the scenery in front of her rapidly moving backward, the wind mixed with magma heat blowing in her face, causing her to question her life.

The cool-looking war horses ridden by the surrounding holy spirits, as well as other mounts, retreated wildly.

At that moment, Yelena remembered a piece of advice from the Great Light Orb, never to judge a holy spirit by its appearance.

This advice seemed applicable to mounts as well?

“Oh my God! Is this Temple Run?”

“Excitement, excitement, excitement! I was a bit sleepy earlier, but now I’m not sleepy at all.”

“This is even more thrilling than playing a horror game.”

When Yelena was brought along by Jiang Qiao, running away from the cave, the escaping saints along the way were not at all fearful of falling into the lava; instead, they were excitedly discussing in loud voices as if they were at a party.

Yelena no longer wanted to question what these saints were thinking; all she could do was to join in the laughter, trying to learn to be happy with them.

But as she laughed, she suddenly noticed Zhao Mingwei and Jiang Qiao looking at her with strange eyes, as if to say, ‘Is this silly child crazy?’

“What’s so funny?” asked Zhao Mingwei.

“I…I just…” Yelena felt embarrassed by Zhao Mingwei’s question and didn’t know how to explain.

“The exit is just ahead,” Jiang Qiao said, looking toward the entrance of the distant magma cave.

This magma cave was different fromc Thieves, possibly because Denghis Xisi knew some kind of spatial magic, or there was some mistake in the information Can Xin communicated.

Feichou tripped over an upraised tree root while running at full speed toward the exit.

Feichou had a 5% chance of tripping every ten seconds when running, which was the restriction Jiang Qiao placed on this fastest land mount saint.

Jiang Qiao had not expected this minor restriction would backfire on him; the gold carrot he was using as bait flew high into the air, and Feichou, just as Yelena had predicted, became like a ball and rolled straight out of the cave.

The three passengers who had been riding on Feichou naturally fell to the ground, and in a critical moment, Jiang Qiao summoned his water spirit, who turned into a soft cushion of Solidified Water to catch him, while on the other side, to a tree trunk.

Is this guy’s brain made of wood?

Lying on the cushion his water spirit had formed, Jiang Qiao sighed as he saw Yelena, whose collar was grabbed by Zhao Mingwei, dangling her limbs. If it were any other boy with a bit of emotional intelligence, he would have chosen to embrace her.

That way, Yelena’s goodwill would definitely increase by about fifty, right?

“Your HP is still full, you should not be hurt,” Zhao Mingwei said.

And with that sentence, he missed another chance to increase goodwill! Just asking ‘Are you hurt?’ would definitely have made Yelena’s goodwill soar.

“Master…can you put me down?” Yelena was wearing a dress, and more saints had run out of the cave continuously; if she stayed in the tree, it might trigger the saints’ harmony mechanism.

Zhao Mingwei uttered an ‘Oh,’ and to Jiang Qiao’s despair, released his grip on Yelena’s collar, and Yelena fell to the ground, stirring up a swirl of leaves.

Damn straight man.

Jiang Qiao sighed deeplei’s own decency as a man, and partly because, like Mo Shigui, he did not want to invest his love in a game character.

Even if Zhao Mingwei knew it was reality.

But Yelena’s goodwill towards Zhao Mingwei had already reached fifty, and there was a hint of pink under that number.

If the goodwill was all green, then it represented the feelings between friends or relatives; a little pink meant the girl was starting to like you.

Yelena could choose to hide the color of her goodwill, but the problem was she had not noticed it at all right now.

“Sigh.” Jiang Qiao sighed again, turning his gaze to where the cave was. Hai Lan had not yet come out of the cave.

But suddenly, a pillar of lightcked this small area of Biland Island.

In real world terms, it meant the curse of crystallization in this area had been suppressed, not purified but held in check.

The area from the starting base to here, nearly half an hour away by road, would no longer continue to crystallize, but the threat of crystallization still lurked.

“So it all comes down to collecting those Core Crystal Stones, huh?” Jiang Qiao probably understood what those red crystals meant for the players.

It was a checkpoint and a teleportation point, something that would reveal the area map once activated.
