Chapter Seventy-Four: Into Hell The Proving Ground
The awakened Scarlet Snow has only rested for less than an hour and has fully recovered, but the mental weakness cannot be cured by medicine, Fei Yue repeatedly asked Scarlet Snow to rest for a while but was rejected by Scarlet Snow, and now Scarlet Snow is more cautious and serious than in the past, although sometimes it will be a little playful, but the smile of the past is gone.

Walking out of the cave, Scarlet Snow's eyes were a little dim, and the memories of the past were like green leaves washed by rain and dew when they fused soul fragments, which made Scarlet Snow's thinking a little confused, and sometimes even had the illusion that she was just having a dream, whenever she had such an illusion, Scarlet Snow would hold Fei Yue's hand tightly, and let her body get closer to Fei Yue, so as to prove the truth of the past.
The two walked into the town hand in hand, because of the stealth and light spirits, the residents of the town couldn't see the two, and when they walked into the town, Scarlet Snow leaned closer to Feiyue again, Feiyue gently held Scarlet Snow in her arms, this is what Scarlet Snow used to do, and now the protagonist has changed to Feiyue.
Scarlet Xue glanced at Fei Yue, the smile on her face seemed to never fade, people lowered their heads, and walked quickly past the two of them, a scorched smell spread across the street, and it smelled as if something was burned, "This is Peta, people have used this as a staple food since I was still here, I didn't expect it to be like this now, and the people who live here, although I am afraid that it has passed for dozens of generations, but people's living conditions seem to have not changed at all, I can see from their eyes!" Seeing that Fei Yue was looking around to find the source of the burnt smell, Scarlet Xue said with a smile.
"I've been here in the past, Ax met you in front of my eyes, but you can't see me, at that time I was just a wisp of longing, or a fleeting wisp of time!" Fei Yue gently touched Crimson's long scarlet hair, and said lightly to Crimson Snow, the buildings on both sides were dark and low, the alleys between the buildings were dark and damp, the scorching wind blew from the depths of the alleys with the stench of decay, and all the people passing by hid their faces and bowed their heads and walked quickly.
"Let's go!" Seeing that Fei Yue seemed to want to go over and find out, Scarlet Xue hurriedly led Fei Yue to speed up her pace, "Let's continue to walk south, it shouldn't be long before we reach the end of the south, in the past, it was the border with Fili, there were many dead souls wandering there, and now I don't know what it looks like!"
Walking out of the town, there was still a pitch black, rotting field in front of me, unlike the other side, the field here was still dripping with dark green liquid, which looked as if it was highly poisonous, and some rickety bodies were barefoot on the dark green liquid to plow, their feet had dried up, probably because they had been soaked in the dark green liquid for a long time.
Passing through the fields, Fei Yue saw the source of the dark green liquid, a dead lake, no river leading to it, and the only few ditches were still dug by the farmers, and it seemed that it was not going well, probably because the ground was too hard, but the poor farmers could only dig for the softest earth, so that this stagnant water, which could have been easily introduced into the fields, made a few huge bends around the place to reach its destination.
Fei Yue and Scarlet Snow came to the lakeside, a strong fishy smell came to the nose, a few fish with only bones left wandering in the dark green water, or just looked like only bones left, because they were only seen by chance, so Fei Yue couldn't see clearly, and just when Fei Yue and Scarlet Snow were about to leave, a huge white bone fish head surfaced, and swallowed the spider that was dormant next to it, this spider didn't even notice Fei Yue, when the fish swallowed the spider, Fei Yue was also frightened by this sudden action and hurriedly took a few steps back, this kind of thing is really lethal to girls, so that Fei Yue left a little frightened。
Scarlet Snow gently held Feiyue's hand, and when Feiyue retreated, Scarlet Snow subconsciously stretched out her arthropods to block Feiyue, but she failed to pierce the head of the skeleton fish as she wished, and she didn't know if the skull of this fish was too hard, or if Scarlet Snow's arthropods were not as sharp as they used to be.
Leaving the dead lake, the two continued to move forward, this place began to become barren again, although the rudiments of the fields could be vaguely seen, but no one had cultivated them for a long time, along the path between the fields all the way to the south, the sky of hell was the same as the underworld in the past, it was impossible to distinguish between day and night, when the scarlet snow was tired, Feiyue drew runes and magic arrays, and used her own power to purify the area covered by the runes and magic arrays, and then made them grow vines and gather into a simple tent, and the two slept in the tent like this until Scarlet Snow woke up.
Such a comfortable and harmonious day has passed for about ten days, it may be longer, it may be shorter, because this is calculated according to Scarlet Snow's work and rest, Feiyue expects that at this time, Qili and they may also begin to return, but there is no way, Scarlet Snow's body has not fully recovered now, and it cannot withstand the endless rush.
On the fifteenth day, the two of them arrived at the black, wave-like place they saw in the hillock before the moon, but this was not the ocean, but an endless demonic laboratory used for breeding and experiments, the black wave-like thing was a viscous liquid, countless black bodies struggled in the viscous liquid, looking at it from a distance like waves of black waves, but in essence, it was full of fishy stench and decay, and even some indescribable smells.
Compared to the stench of the sky, Fei Yue did not hear any shouts or cries, and when Fei Yue came to the edge of the black depression, he found that these distorted and poor people could not make any sound at all, the black liquid had already overflowed their mouths and noses, and only by constantly struggling could they get a little chance to breathe, but as long as they opened their mouths, the black liquid would pour into their mouths, and the results were probably not optimistic.
Fei Yue and Crimson Xue walked on the edge of the depression, trying to find a place to pass through here, but the two of them went around in a big circle, and they couldn't find any direct way to the opposite side, and finally they could only transform into two falcons, passing over the black liquid, this is Fei Yue's first attempt at Transfiguration, and while maintaining Transfiguration, it is also necessary to maintain Light Spirit Technique and Stealth Technique, even the most powerful magicians in human beings may have a headache, and now I am afraid that the number of magicians has been very scarce, especially in Fei'er, which has been occupied by alchemy science, where people have begun to stop trusting magic and use alchemy products that are more convenient and easier to control, this seems to be a little similar to the world where Fei Yue was in the past.
Thinking of this, Fei Yue shook her head violently, the wind of hell is very easy to fly, and a wave of heat can easily bring the two of them into the sky, but after the two of them arrived at their destination, it took a lot of thought to land safely, but this is just an island in this black ocean, the battlefield of the past no longer exists, and why do those people set up this kind of experimental place here, Fei Yue can still think of some reasons, but it is not yet time to think about it.
After resting for a while, the two turned into falcons again and began to continue flying south, this time it only took half an hour for the two to see the waves as black as the black liquid, the pale waves hit the dark blue reef, rolling up a little wail of the dead, and further on, there was a white mist, seeing this, Feiyue and the two could only stop their pace of progress, and instead flew northwest, if Feiyue remembered correctly, it should be the direction where the Zombie King's trial altar was located.
Familiar with the use of Transfiguration, Fei Yue and Scarlet Snow's journey is much faster, but correspondingly, the language of the two has become very rare, and the time to speak is only a small period of wonderful peace before Scarlet Snow rests, and on the second day after leaving the experimental field made by the ancient battlefield, Fei Yue got the beautiful news, everyone has gathered in the hiding place of Spa near Gravel City, just waiting for Fei Yue and the two to go back, and then return to the underworld together.
Fei Yue didn't tell Scarlet Xue after she got the news, in her opinion, Scarlet Xue's body is much weaker than in the past, and before she recovers completely, Fei Yue will not let Scarlet Snow have any problems again, even if the fusion of the underworld and hell is imminent, but Fei Yue has a hunch that Aix will not let Hell and the underworld merge so quickly, but will wait for a suitable time, this time is probably the day when Heaven falls and Effie Yang suffers.
It was precisely because of knowing these that Fei Yue seemed unhurried, the two of them turned into eagles and falcons and soared in the sky, the pitch-black earth crawled under them, and the scorching air currents came from the bottom to the top, like the sorrow of the earth, and also like the impact of the lava gushing out when the blood vessels of the earth burst, the two kept moving forward, and the towering mountains were left behind, which was the only place where Fei Yue saw white in Hell at the moment, but Fei Yue also knew that it was probably the most dangerous place in the entire Hell at that time.
In this way, it took about another week or so for the two of them to finish drawing all the parts they were responsible for, and with the map given to them by the villagers before, plus the map drawn by Qili, they can basically understand the terrain of the entire hell clearly, so when facing the fusion in the future, the underworld will also turn from passive to active.
According to the traces left by Qili, Fei Yue, who returned to the six-pointed star volcano, quickly found Qi Li and his party, several girls, including Spa and Earl, looked a little embarrassed, it seemed that they had experienced some evenly matched battles to leave traces, and when Fei Yue inquired, he learned that the guys in hell found out that there was an intruder, and actually used another energy source as the support of the portal, this energy is not like those slaves, but a more intuitive magic stone, as long as someone comes near the portal, the magic stone will judge the required energy according to the number of comers, and then draw it from the slave。
And Qili and her party discovered this kind of facility, and only sneaked into the barracks several times to destroy it, but because they didn't have Feiyue's stealth and light spirit skills, they failed several times, which made the group so embarrassed.
