Hero Mom! Xiao Yue couldn't help but think of a word that he had seen a long time ago, he had read a lot of information in the library of Cloud City, it was normal for a divine beast like a phoenix to lay one or two eggs, and the appearance of five in one breath made Xiao Yue a little doubtful about the authenticity of that information.

Or, perhaps, two of them would be bonus missions for him and Yun Rumeng? Xiao Yue fell into a crazy YY, he was still missing an aggressive pet, if he could have a phoenix as a pet, what a wonderful thing it would be!

However, Xiao Yue also knew that the system was not so generous, and it was impossible for Phoenix to give away his baby easily without a task of sufficient difficulty.

"These are my five children." The phoenix stood in the middle of the stone pillar, stretched wings gently brushed the phoenix eggs, the beautiful phoenix eyes were full of loving expressions, the five phoenix eggs seemed to feel the mother's comfort, and the magic patterns on the eggshells flew more and more.

"I'm going to have to guard them here for seven hundred and forty-nine days before I can hatch them all, and today is the last day." Phoenix continued, "In order for them to have the power to break through their shells at the last time, I will draw the energy of lava from the interior of the volcano and transfer it to them, and this is the moment when I am weakest!" ”

"A few days ago, a group of monkeys, led by an orangutan, almost invaded the area by passing through the barrier of the lava flow, but luckily I was able to get back in time to prevent them from succeeding. The leader of the orangutan is very cunning and ferocious, and although he was seriously injured by me, I guess it may come back today to take revenge, and I can't always stay by the children's side to protect them, so I have entrusted you with the task of guarding this place for 12 hours, and warning me if the monkeys come to attack. Phoenix gave the details of the mission.

It doesn't seem that difficult. Xiao Yue thought for a while and asked, "Then can we go out of the cave first, so that as soon as those monkeys come, we can find them in time." ”

Phoenix shook his head and said: "The temperature at the entrance of the cave is too high for you humans, even if you have the protection of my blessed shield, you can't last ten years, only the heat here is absorbed by my children, is the environment where you can survive." ”

Xiao Yue and Yun Rumeng realized that the blessed shield on their bodies had disappeared and annihilated, Xiao Yue asked anxiously, "Then when we discovered the whereabouts of the monkey and sent a message, when will you be able to arrive at the earliest?" ”

This is the key to the task, Xiao Yue knows that the orangutan in the mouth of the phoenix must be the divine power giant ape, with its attack ability, the two of them are afraid that they will not be able to support much time.

"Normally, it only takes me 2 minutes to get there, but in the last hour, I'm going to release the energy stored inside the volcano, so if the orangutan comes running at this time, you will need to resist it for a while." Phoenix replied, and finally added: "The leading orangutan has been seriously injured by me, and it is estimated that it will be very weak here, and the little monkeys under its command are even worse, with the ability of the two of you, it should be able to withstand a lot of time." ”

Xiao Yue smiled bitterly: "You may not know that the situation is not so optimistic. He recounted to the phoenix the scene of the divine power giant ape sweeping the thunderhorn beast group that he saw on the road, and the divine power giant ape was majestic and uninjured.

Hearing this, the phoenix exclaimed, "It actually hunted the Thunderhorn Beast to obtain magic crystals to recover from its injuries, I really underestimated it. It seems that this time it came completely prepared. ”

It turned its gaze to Yun Rumeng and said softly: "Kid, the difficulty of this mission has completely changed, you can choose to give up now, I will give you 10 opinion points, and you can come to me next time to continue to complete the trial task." ”

Xiao Yue and Yun Rumeng glanced at each other, both hesitated a little, and continued the task, this difficulty is too high, if you give up, you can still get favorability, it stands to reason that it should be the best choice.

It's just like this, how should Yun Rumeng go to find the phoenix next time, listening to its tone, it only stayed here because it needed to hatch phoenix eggs.

No matter how difficult it is, you have to fight it, and it's a big deal to hang a 50% experience here! Xiao Yue and Yun Rumeng made up their minds at the same time, and Yun Rumeng said to the phoenix: "We still choose to continue the mission, not only for the reward, but we don't want these cute babies to be harmed by orangutans." ”

This was said very beautifully, the phoenix was very happy to hear it, it screamed, shook its wings, and sprinkled a little golden light from its body, these points of light seemed to be arranged automatically like life, forming a golden ring around the five stone pillars, and inside the ring was a faint schema of a magic array.

After completing all this, the phoenix said to Yun Rumeng: "I have set up a guard magic array here, if you can't resist it, this magic array can protect you for ten minutes, hoping to play a role at the last moment." ”

"Now stretch out your right hand."

Yun Rumeng stretched out his right hand in front of the phoenix according to his words, and the right wing of the phoenix waved forward, and the wingtip just fell on Yun Rumeng's hand.

The dazzling red light flashed, and a drop of crimson blood appeared from the wingtip of the phoenix and dripped into Yun Rumeng's palm. Hearing a "snort", the drop of blood immediately burned on Yun Rumeng's snow-white skin, and a faint green smoke came out, and then a phoenix-shaped red magic pattern was burned into her palm.

Yun Rumeng frowned lightly, but she didn't say a word, and it could be seen from her expression that there was some pain in the process.

Phoenix nodded approvingly and said, "When danger comes, as long as you call me silently, I can sense the message from this bit of essence blood." ”

After speaking, it flapped its wings and waved at Xiao Yue, and a colorful feather detached from its wings and flew in front of Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue caught the feather in surprise, and a strange feeling passed from the feather to his hand.

"You are a good hunter, this feather can be used as a bow and arrow, it is very powerful, I hope you can master the best timing."

Xiao Yue stroked the feathers, this is one of the purposes of his coming here this time, these 1 phoenix feathers can make ten phoenix arrows, but unfortunately now the phoenix only gives him one, I don't know what kind of effect this single feather will shoot out, Xiao Yue is very curious, but he also knows that the opportunity to verify will come soon.

"Then please, within 12 hours from now, the task of guarding my children will be entrusted to you!" The phoenix sprang to its feet and spread its wings in the air and flew towards the entrance of the cave.

In an instant, its glittering golden body turned into a small dot in the sight of the two, and its last words were faintly heard from the cave: "Please protect my children, wait for me to come back!" ”

Xiao Yue let out a sigh of relief and put the phoenix feather into the space ring, and Yun Rumeng also looked at the magic pattern in his palm with fascination, hoping to see a name.

There were only two lonely people left in the huge space and the five phoenix eggs that had not broken their shells, Xiao Yue walked in front of one of the phoenix eggs with his hands behind his back, and half-squatted down to carefully admire the unusually beautiful phoenix eggs.

What was quite strange was that the phoenix egg seemed to notice Xiao Yue's approach, the red light emitted became more and more abundant, and the magic patterns on the shell body kept changing, as if telling something, which fascinated Xiao Yue for a while.

"You don't want to sneak one back, do you?" Yun Rumeng's teasing voice sounded behind him.

Xiao Yue smiled and said, "It's too hot, I can't hold it back." "This phoenix egg is constantly absorbing the fire energy from the stone pillar, and as soon as it gets close, it feels extremely hot.

This is a phoenix egg, if it can be easily taken away like this, the phoenix will not leave so reassuringly, Xiao Yue thought of this truth with his toes.

In fact, if Xiao Yue had a greedy desire to touch the phoenix egg, he would immediately burn the fire magic attached to the egg to ashes.

"So what do we do now?"

I don't know why, when Yun Rumeng and Xiao Yue were together, she always habitually asked Xiao Yue's opinion first when she encountered problems, instead of making up her mind right away, which was completely different from her usual style.

Xiao Yue pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go out first to see the situation." ”

Yun Rumeng exclaimed: "You don't want to live anymore, the phoenix said that the temperature at the entrance of the cave is very high, and it can't be supported for a long time with a shield, not to mention that you don't have a shield at all now, so it's not a death to go out rashly?" ”

Xiao Yue smiled: "Of course I know this, but I think there must be a slow change process of this temperature increase, I'll see how far I can go out at most, and if there is a place that can be used or ambushed." ”

"Then I'll go with you."

"You just stay here, I'm moving fast, I can run back right away if there's anything wrong, I don't want to carry you again!" Xiao Yue smiled, and immediately jumped in the direction of the cave entrance.

Yun Rumeng stomped her foot hatefully, but stopped in place, Xiao Yue's words were not wrong.

The further out, the higher the temperature, there is almost no wind flowing in this empty and secluded cave, only the invisible heat that makes people breathless, Xiao Yue only explored forward for less than 200 meters, and he already felt that his whole body was sweating profusely, and his physical strength and hunger were falling at a speed visible to the naked eye!
