Mu Chen and Jia Yue are getting closer and closer to the foot of the mountain, the two have talked happily along the way, and the atmosphere between them is also relaxed and happy, especially Jia Yue, who has let down her guard, believing that Mu Chen will take her to find Chunyue and take them to the human world.

"Are we almost there?" Jia Yue asked Mu Chen.

"It's coming, there's still a short mountain road, and you can see the pure moon at the foot of the mountain. Mu Chen led the way in front and reminded Jiayue to be careful from time to time.

"Why did you go apart? What is there in our tribe that you left with her that you have to break her apart? Jia Yue guessed the reason for their separation with Mu Chen based on the conversation with Mu Chen along the way.

"I'll just say you're smart, really... I don't want her to see me slaughter the Realm Atlas, and although she has seen me kill your people many times, this time is different, and I don't want her to be in a dilemma as a friend watching me ravage another tribe that is also a wastelander, it would be too cruel for her. ”

"I didn't expect you to be able to treat Chunyue as a friend when you first met her, and you also considered her feelings, you are really thick-skinned and self-inflicted. Jiayue laughed and teased him, but felt in her heart that he was a gentleman who valued love and knew how to measure.

"This mouth, you can only hear the first half of what comes out of your mouth. Mu Chen shook his head helplessly.

"Then how did you lie to her, with my sister's character, it is not so easy to be convinced. ”

"Of course I can't say it explicitly, I'm like this..."Mu Chen told Jiayue about the whole process of opening Chunyue.

"Black Dragon, Black Dragon can still be used as a mount, how the hell did you subdue it. ”

“... Why don't you care if your sister will arrive safely, and ask about this?"

"Nonsense, didn't you say it all, the people who went to kill were low-level demonic beasts, and Chunyue could still handle it. I'm a summoner, and if there's a summoner who doesn't want to submit to a dragon, it's a dragon. Jiayue raised her voice and deliberately emphasized the last sentence.

"Well, well, it makes sense, I'll take you to Longya Mountain when I have time and help you take one. ”

"Really, really?" Jia Yue grabbed Mu Chen's shoulders with both hands and cheered in place.

"Heh, this wasteland first female summoner is too unreserved, hahahaha. Mu Chen sarcastically said to her, and laughed along.

The two of them walked the last section of the mountain road with a smile and a smile, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, the sky was already dark, and the remaining ray of sunshine was about to be replaced by moonlight, and the surrounding scenery was becoming more and more blurred, Mu Chen could only tentatively look for the black dragon.

"Is this the place? Why didn't I see the dragon, it should be easy to recognize such a large body. ”

"Yes, you wait. "Mu Chen began to summon the black dragon, as long as it appeared, it would be easy to find Chunyue.

Jiayue instinctively thought that she should see Chunyue when she arrived here, although the current situation was not what she expected, but out of trust in Mu Chen, she did not doubt it, nor did she panic, and waited quietly on the side. As time passed, Mu Chen's face turned embarrassed, his expression obviously became a little flustered, and he said to Jiayue: "The black dragon doesn't seem to be in the summoning state, something is wrong." ”

"What do you mean?" Jiayue's tone was rapid, and her mood changed.

"The black dragon is supposed to be seriously injured or killed, and cannot be summoned at this time. ”

"What about Chunyue, what about Chunyue, you..."

"Don't worry, she'll be fine, I've told the black dragon again and again that I will definitely protect her. ”

"Something happened to the black dragon, what can you do to ensure her safety, and you can't contact her in any other way?"

"It's unlikely, even if they encounter a powerful demonic beast, as long as they fly away, there is no species in this world that can catch up with the speed of the black dragon. ”

"If it's a person, could it be someone who attacked it?"

"It's also unlikely, I calculated it all when I went to the Boundary Map Department, one is to delay for a week, and when I finish dealing with everyone, it will fly directly through the entrance and exit of the wasteland to meet me here, and the other is to send her to the forest path when she is in trouble, and it will be responsible for diverting the threat. The only one who can attack the flying black dragon is the high-level barren layer, and six of the twelve guards of the Boundary Map Department were killed by me, and the remaining six are not in the camp, and I haven't seen them come back after making such a big noise, so they should have gone far away. High-level vagrants have been employed by the Beckin Department all year round, so it can be said that these people will definitely not appear on the route traveled by the Black Dragon, could it be that I missed something?" Mu Chen looked like he was trying his best to justify, but in fact, he didn't know where the accident had happened.

"You know, if she has an accident in the wasteland, I will not let you go. "In the wasteland, if Junyue is attacked or killed, then it can only be the work of the Demon Beast or the Wasteland people, and this will not be resurrected, Jiayue is angry when she thinks of this, and it is difficult not to speak ill of him.

"No, don't worry, it won't, no matter how big a mistake is, I believe that the black dragon will not put her in danger. With Mu Chen's understanding of the black dragon, he was sure of this.

"So what now? Chunyue has no news at all, where can we find it?"

"Wait. Mu Chen tried to summon the black dragon again, but he still didn't succeed, but he felt a weak response, so he guessed that it was not dead, but only seriously injured.

"The black dragon can't show up yet, but I can feel it doing its best to respond to me. It's too late at the moment, and I don't have a clue, it's not the best idea to venture out to find the pure moon, let's find a place to rest nearby, and I'll try to summon the black dragon tomorrow. ”

Jiayue didn't reply, and the emotions of anger, fear, helplessness, and despair mixed together, making her look solemn and stunned.

Mu Chen didn't explain any more, passed by her, and walked towards the woods at the foot of the mountain.

Under a large tree, he sat down with his back against the trunk, closed his eyes to adjust his state, and did not panic because of Chunyue's affairs.

Jiayue came to him and sat down on the ground, and said with resentment: "You are still in the mood to sleep." ”

"If I can't summon the Black Dragon tomorrow, I'll search all the mountains here. If there is no one in the mountains, I will go back to the wasteland, and even if I dig three feet into the ground, I will definitely find the pure moon. ”

"I must find her, I have been wandering outside all the year round, just such a sister, I haven't had time to get along well, what if..."

"You don't have to be too pessimistic, I don't believe that something will happen to her, I have to go all out tomorrow, take advantage of it now to rest, replenish my strength, don't think too much. ”

The moon is already high in the sky, and the night sky here is not as clear and immaculate as the moor, but the hazy beauty of the slowly fluttering clouds is no less than that of the moor.

Mu Chen kept thinking about the accidents they might encounter in his mind, his body posture seemed to be sleeping, but his brain never stopped, and in the end, he couldn't be sure what went wrong.

Jiayue didn't continue to ask, and fell asleep in the second half of the night because she was too tired, and spent the night quietly beside him.

"Get up, I know what's going on. Mu Chen woke up Jiayue.

"What, where is Junyue?" "Jiayue, who had just woken up, was in a daze, and opened her mouth to ask about her sister's whereabouts.

"They were attacked in the wasteland, the black dragon was attacked by a group of centaurs on the ground while flying towards the boundary map department, was seriously injured, and was forced to turn to the forest path, and when he was about to arrive, he was forced to land in the mountain forest outside, but not far from the entrance, Junyue was not in danger of life, and he was not injured. ”

"Really, how did you know that you summoned the Black Dragon?"

"No, it can't show up yet, it needs to recuperate, but it has the strength to communicate with me mentally, I've been trying since the early hours of the morning, and finally gave me a response. ”

"Then where are we going to find her now, will she still be in the wasteland, should we go back?"

"Don't go back, you saw it when you came, the entrance to the forest path is so big, and you can't fly in the mountains, and we can ride a griffin with an obvious goal, if she waits where the black dragon landed, she will definitely be able to see us. ”

"What if she didn't wait where she was, but went to the Boundary Map Department to find you?"

"It's unlikely, they were forced to land after being attacked, she shouldn't have gone in the direction of being attacked, it's against common sense. Besides, her purpose is to travel through the human world, and she has reached the border mountains, so there is no reason to go back. ”

"Could it be that she has already passed through the mountains and come to the human continent?"

"According to the black dragon, it landed not far from the entrance, it is easy to see the entrance, I know the terrain over there very well, only the forest path is a suitable route for walking, and Chunyue also witnessed the disappearance of the black dragon, it should be forced to act in a panicked state, and it is normal to choose a better route to take and flee quickly. Although Mu Chen's guess was not the same as Chunyue's reaction at the time, the direction was correct.

"So what are you waiting for, let's hurry up and look around. ”

"I told the black dragon, if they are in trouble, it will be responsible for luring away the enemy, and then fly over from the boundary map department to respond, it has a big target, and can guide Chunyue down the mountain on the periphery, but I never expected it to disappear with serious injuries, the road down the mountain is complicated, no one leads, she herself is not so easy to get out, and now the most likely situation is that she is lost in the mountain. ”

"Then let's go into the mountains to find her, aren't you very familiar with the terrain here?"

"It's too inefficient for the two of us to find it, or..."

"Yesterday you said you would find her by going through the mountains, and today..."

"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet, the two of us are really too inefficient, we have to ask the nearby villagers for help, the more people the better." ”

"Didn't you live on the border?

"If you want to go to the black market, there are two very well-known brokers here, and they are very well-connected, and asking them for help is the most effective way. ”

"Then what are you doing here, let's go. Jiayue didn't know which direction it was, so she grabbed Mu Chen and was about to leave.

"You relax first and stabilize your emotions, Junyue is not injured, she is just lost, there are no people and monsters in the mountains who can threaten her, she is safe. Don't be so impatient and mess around. Mu Chen grabbed Jiayue's hand, pulled her in place, and comforted her.

Jiayue usually always looks cold, and never shows her emotions too much, if it weren't for the fact that it involves Chunyue, she wouldn't have temporarily lost her mind and couldn't deal with it calmly.

Anyway, there was finally news of Chunyue, knowing that she was safe and sound made Mu Chen's tense nerves relax a little, and the next step was to go to the black market for help, and return to the place he used to go to three years ago, and how many people would lend a hand.
