"What kind of place is this?Huan Lingyu? Where are you?"

Song Xiaocheng seemed to be in a narrow cave. Surrounded by stone spikes, it was wet and slippery, and even he was sitting bare-bottomed in a puddle of water. Even as he struggled with his limp muscles to get up as quickly as he could, the water on the ground still reached his ankles.

Soon, Song Xiaocheng's sense of smell also recovered from the smell of mold and rot. Originally, he felt that it was nothing, but when he suddenly smelled the smell of this plant corruption, Song Xiaocheng almost felt suffocated.

"I can't see what's going on on your side, so I don't know where you've been, I just know that my teleportation has sent you to the bugs' plane. Right now, I can only barely have a spiritual conversation with you through this directional connection. ”

Of course Huan Lingyu was not by his side, the voice seemed to be directly stuffed into his head, as if someone was yelling into his ear.

"Right? I've done my part. Chengzi, you can only rely on yourself for other things!"

It's up to you.

That's great!

I have to say that in many cases, whether it was at work or when he was playing games, and even when the whole world was in chaos later, and he had to wander around for adventure, Song Xiaocheng was very inclined to go it alone. If one day, he is writing an urgent project plan, and those colleagues who are in the way tell him, "This work group can only rely on yourself", then Song Xiaocheng will not only contemptuously compare a middle finger full of pride and superiority in his heart, but will actually accept this situation more gladly.

But in the current situation -

Song Xiaocheng, let's tear your spiritual world to pieces, and then send the most useless part of it into a world full of disgusting bugs through teleportation magic, and you will be responsible for killing the biggest, most evil and bastard bug leader, so as to save all of us mankind, this heavy responsibility will fall on you, and you can only rely on yourself!

Perhaps a confident person is confident simply because the situation he encounters is not troublesome enough.

"So what am I going to do now? Is that bug I'm going to kill in this hole?"

Take the quest, enter the cave, kill the quest target, leave the cave, and hand in the quest. What a standardized bento errand.

"What...... I don't know, how do I know? Can you see a big bug directing strange magic?"

Song Xiaocheng looked around, and he saw some moss flickering with faint fluorescence on the rock wall, but it could only faintly illuminate the rock wall, but he couldn't see anything else at all.

This situation is not difficult for him, after all, he is not an ordinary person now.

While thinking about it happily, Song Xiaocheng raised his right hand, intending to urge Igni's power to make the surroundings brighten.

But it was such an action, but Song Xiaocheng suddenly went from head to toe.

"Huan Shao...... Are you there?"

Say. ”

"Why can't I use Igni?"

Indeed, the usual throbbing force has disappeared since just now! Although all other sensations disappeared during the dream, the perception of Igni in his right arm did not recover as the normal sensations such as sight and hearing gradually recovered.

"Because I've only teleported part of you!"

"You're Mao!!" Song Xiaocheng yelled irritably. Although I don't know what I'm about to deal with, but the ability I'm most proud of can't be used at such a critical juncture, what's the difference between that and not bringing a textbook to class?

"Huan Lingyu, is there something wrong with your brain? You want me to help you...... Help you deal with this mess, but you didn't bring me my most important weapon!!"

At first, the small triangle in the palm of his right hand seemed like a curse, disrupting Song Xiaocheng's originally stable life. And as more and more things continue to happen in the future, Igni has become his talisman, like a blade in hand, which can always be separated from his side, which can not only help him sweep away threats, but also help him achieve his goals. Whenever Igni spewed fire and swept away patches of zombies, Song Xiaocheng would even be a little glad that he would sign this contract with Ganesha. And when he came back from the dead and gouged out the eyeball with his right hand from Hiratsuka's eye socket, the power that was once considered a curse seemed to have become a gift.

But now, when he lost that power so suddenly, Song Xiaocheng realized how much he relied on it.

"Are you blaming me? Chengzi, think about it yourself......"

"I miss you! Igni ...... That's my most important weapon!" Song Xiaocheng interrupted Huan Lingyu's words irritably.

"Igni is just the most basic of the thousands of runes!"

"Does that mean I have any other more powerful runes right now?"

“...... No. ”

"Aren't you farting, then?"

Huan Lingyu was silent for a moment.

"Song Xiaocheng, do you remember why we only teleported a small part of you over? It's him, because if you really succeed in closing the rift, then you may never come back. Do you want your dear Igny to stay on the bug plane forever and never come back?"

"I ......" Song Xiaocheng wanted to argue, but realized that what Huan Lingyu said was right. Anyway, it seems like a war that is doomed to lose anyway, "So what do I do now?"

"There are many ways to kill a bug, Chengzi! You better find a way to find that guy first!"

Looks like that's all there is to it.

Anyway, it's not a good idea to stay where you are, so let's move first.

But this cave seems to be just a narrow passage, and it has been thrown directly in the center of the passage, which side is the exit?

I can't care so much, so I have to gamble on one side.

However, appearing in this scene was not much unexpected by Song Xiaocheng. A world dominated by bugs? What could it be, could it be a concrete forest of high-rise buildings? Maybe it's possible. But in comparison, this kind of damp and dark cave is what a bug civilization should look like, right?

Song Xiaocheng moved forward tentatively step by step along the slippery wall. Luckily, as soon as he turned the corner, a small light appeared in his sight. After a while, as a deafening roar became clearer and clearer, Song Xiaocheng finally walked to the open air.

However, the scene in front of him shook him like an air hammer.

Standing high on the cliff at the exit of the cave, there was a long sky and a vast expanse of water, and the huge clouds in the sky looked very soft and comfortable, shining golden red by the sun on the horizon, and above the sparkling water, there were similar clouds of light and fire.

The loud roar came from a huge crescent-shaped waterfall about several kilometers wide, and Song Xiaocheng landed on a small cliff in the inner ring of the waterfall. Although there was a dizzying abyss beyond the cliff beneath his feet, compared to the waterfall in the distance, it seemed to be just a small dirt slope.

The waterfall is flanked by patches of lush greenery, even more lush than Hou Xiaolin's hair, and the delicate green color of the plants seems to be pulled directly to the full value of green in the palette, growing seamlessly along the straight cut cliffs and the rocks that occasionally flow smoothly in the silk.

The wild and vast natural scene in front of him really shocked Song Xiaocheng. In movies and games, he has witnessed and even passed by similar scenes countless times, and has occasionally stopped to sigh, and has fantasized about being able to be in it, but never imagined that one day he would actually stand in such a scene.

Fortunately, the hole where he stood was not a cliff. A sloping trail winds its way to the top of the mountain. Moving his steps carefully, Song Xiaocheng finally left the cliff that made him a little dizzy, and climbed onto the flat mountain.

"Wow-Huan Shao, was this the same scene when you came last time?"

Song Xiaocheng sighed excitedly, and felt that it was worth the trip to see this kind of scene once in his life. The imaginary terrible and disgusting worms have not even appeared.

However, soon, Song Xiaocheng's interest in viewing the scenery was wiped out by most of it.

"Huan Shao?"

Huan Lingyu, who had been pointing fingers in his head, suddenly lost his voice.

Done. Huan Lingyu won't release himself, right?

If it weren't for the fact that in the consistent setting of novels and games, this kind of dialogue based on spiritual links is always so unreliable, Song Xiaocheng might really be so suspicious.

"**, what the hell, it's not more reliable than the penguin voice!"

However, there is a wilderness in front of him, and he has a heavy responsibility, and the only person who can show him the way cannot be contacted. The goal mentioned in that mission is only vaguely noted, and it is simply impossible to find it!

"A big bug that is channeling strange magic......"

Big bugs, big bugs. Not to mention insects, up to now, Song Xiaocheng has been walking barefoot in this mountain forest for a long time, but he hasn't even seen a bird! If it weren't for the fact that the soil was still soft......

Thinking of this, Song Xiaocheng also suddenly felt uneasy.

Indeed, since I woke up, all I saw was plants, except for mountains, water, stones, and sky. Except for the boundless plants, I haven't seen any other living creatures at all.

A cloud of doubts rushed to his heart, and Song Xiaocheng felt a little hairy in his heart. While this may not be a bad thing for him - after all, there is no danger for the time being - but if there is really only one living man in this world, and no other animals, not even a single worm, not to mention what that ethereal mission is about, it would be creepy to think about it!
