As the last rays of the setting sun fade from the horizon, Warhammer Volcano comes to an end for the day. Kirin and Xiude, together with the wild fairy girl Keya who was rescued from the wreckage of the moon boat, retreated to the Titan ruins below the snow line, and found a relatively hidden place to rest in the winding volcanic passage for the night.

The burning bonfire casts the silhouettes of the three of them swaying on the stone wall behind them, and the occasional crackle of burning wood is heard, but there is no other sound.

Needless to say, the wild fairy girl who is still immersed in the grief for the deceased clansman is said to be lawless when they get together, and they are too frightened today. In retrospect, from the attack of air thieves on the way, to the sudden and inexplicable shelling of the transport boat and the thrilling fall of the Titan Ruins, to the terrifying scene of witnessing the Fire Giant's slaughter of the Krodo dragon in the Ruins Square, to the shocking scene of the Fire Giants sinking the Elf Moon Boat with the Titan Cannon, and finally the only survivor of the Wild Fairy Ruins Exploration Team in front of him, each of them can be said to be thrilling events.

For adventurers, these experiences can be used as a valuable talk to brag about when they return to their peers, but the truth is that they are still not out of danger so far. What's even more serious is that if they can't change this situation, it may not be long before they become material for other people's idle conversation. Titles such as "Lamentation of the Undergraduate, Rookie Adventurer Buried in Volcanic Ruins!", "Princess Elsa's Interview, 'I Knew My Brother Was Going to Walk This Road of No Return'", and so on, would make headlines in the Ringer's weekly newspaper a few days later.

As long as they thought that they would become the protagonists of such third-rate reports, the two of them couldn't help but feel depressed, squatting in their respective corners, one with a sad face, and the other with a sad sigh.

Of course, regardless of the possibility of such reports in the future, the current reality shows that their situation is also full of disadvantages.

The first thing that can be determined is that the flame giant is a formidable enemy they have never encountered before, and its strength can be described as "overwhelming", without any exaggeration.

The Korodo dragon, known as the "incarnation of calamity" along with the abyssal lizard, was slaughtered by the flame giant like chopping melons and vegetables, and as long as they thought of the bloody square, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind their backs. According to Qilin, even if an elder-level figure from the Great Wilderness Village came out to challenge the Flame Giant, the victory or defeat would only be between five or five waves, and as for him, who was still a martial artist, there was no need to mention it.

There is no doubt that the Flame Giant is completely more and more common sense, but what is even more terrifying is that he is also the successor of the Titan civilization. The Titan civilization created by the Giant Clan has reached a height beyond the reach of human beings as early as the distant primeval times, and what the Flame Giant shows is only the tip of the iceberg, but it is enough to make ordinary people frightened.

The two learned from Keya's mouth that the Titan Cannon used by the Flame Giant to sink the Elven Moon Boat was called "Volcano Cannon", which was the legacy of the Titan civilization, and its power was as powerful as the Qilin and others had seen, enough to sweep away any monster in the earthly realm. Originally, the Ralph tribe took a fancy to the sleeping Titan Divine Soldier in this ruin, so they sent an exploration team to infiltrate the ruins, intending to wait for an opportunity to seize the inheritance guarded by the fire giants, but unfortunately they were detected by the owner of the ruins, and finally suffered a fate of almost total annihilation.

Having said that, if it weren't for the protection of Amun, who didn't know whether it was true or not, the people on the transport boat would have been one step ahead of the wild elves—recalling the scene at that time, even the two guys who had never been god-respecting couldn't help but look up at the sky and tear up a handful of tears to the guardian saint of peace and childbirth far away in the sky. Although Amon's protection saved them from the disaster for a while, judging from what happened to the wild elves, it was extremely likely that the transport ship would be attacked by volcanic cannons again after liftoff, and neither of them dared to gamble their lives on the luck that they didn't know how likely it was.

Since it is so dangerous to walk from the sky, it is not impossible to simply abandon the transport boat and retreat by 6 ways. But in that case, what awaits them is the largest lawless zone in the kingdom of Lavelis. The vast forests around Warhammer Volcano are teeming with monsters, from slimes to minotaurs, and with the exception of the Kirin, which has inhuman strength, the chances of survival are slim to none.

In other words, the Qilin group is trapped in this Titan Ruins, not only unable to move an inch, but also facing the danger of being annihilated by the giants at any time.

If there is still a ray of light in the midst of such deep despair, then the information provided by Keya is undoubtedly the last hope for everyone. According to the results of the previous investigation by the wild elves, there does not seem to be any trace of the activity of the second flame giant in the Titan Ruins. In other words, the Flame Giant they had encountered earlier was the only guardian of the ruins. And the more important fact is that the flame giant rarely moves at night, and the wild goblins took advantage of the fire giant's rest at night to sneak into the ruins in the elven moon boat, but unfortunately they were finally revealed by the fire giant, otherwise they could have left at night......

"That's it!" Xiude said thoughtlessly.

"What is this?" Qilin looked at him with a frown.

"We can also leave at night! If it goes well, the transport boat will be repaired tomorrow, and we will leave secretly tomorrow night!"

“...... Well, yes, if I could, I didn't really want to clash with the Flame Giants. ”

Kirin nodded in agreement, but his attitude aroused Xiude's suspicions.

"Hey, why do I think you're sorry?"

"It's a pity, no, I don't feel sorry for not having a chance to fight the Flame Giant. The Qilin wanted to cover it up, and the suspicious look in Xiude's eyes became more and more obvious.

"Let me make it clear first, you can do whatever dangerous things you want, but don't implicate us kind little citizens?" Xiude warned in advance.

"What, you don't want to slip back with your tail between your legs, do you?" asked Kirin dissatisfied.

"Slip back, of course, or what else do you want to do?"

"I mean, if Erie asks what we're doing here, how would you answer?"

“...... Huh?" Xiu De was stunned for a moment.

"For example, 'yes, we walked around the volcano a little bit, met a flame giant and came back. Ahh......h Can you say this kind of answer, which is not in line with the aesthetics of an adventurer and is completely devoid of a man's romance?"

"Hmmmm, that's what I said......" Xiude showed a Yan zhòng struggling expression, while Kirin took the opportunity to make up for the final blow.

"Moreover, if Noyin knows that we let the ready-made prey escape back because we are afraid of the flame giants, it will be a shame for a man's life!

"Uh-uh-uh......" Xiude's shoulders shook violently, and a strange sound came out of his throat, and after a while, he hung his head heavily, admitting his defeat.

“...... So, you're going to move those reptiles back?"

"Of course, that's what we're for, and if we don't catch our prey, what are we going to pay for the rent of the transport?"

"So that's your real purpose......" Xiude suddenly felt powerless.

"Anyway, let's decide! Tomorrow night after dark, we'll go to the square and load the reptiles onto the boat, and if we do it fast, we can sneak away before dawn." Kirin concluded.

"Will it be so smooth...... Xiude said with a bitter face, disagreeing with Qilin's optimism.

At this moment, a "grunt" sound sounded next to him, attracting the attention of the two.

I saw that under the reflection of the bonfire, the wild fairy girl's face turned into an apple, and she moved her body in embarrassment, lowered her head, and hid her face in the shadow of Xiu.

"Ahh

“...... Here you go. Kirin ignored him, but took out his dry food from his travel bag and gave half of it to Koxy, before taking half of his own and nibbling it. As for Xiude, who was a step late, he looked at the dry food he had just taken out, and then cast a resentful look at the Qilin.

It should be noted that from the general purpose of saving money, the dry food prepared by the Kirin is a delicacy that has been popular among adventurers since ancient times, and jerky is also. Jerky has the convenience of storage and carrying, but the taste is quite reluctant, but since both of them have a rough taste, they don't have any problems with this cheap dry food, but this is not the case for the wild fairy girl.

"......" Keya took the jerky and sniffed it, then frowned, as if she was quite resistant to this rugged style of dry food, but because her luggage had been burned to ashes by the volcano cannon along with the Elven Moon Boat, there was no choice.

I saw the little goblin staring at the jerky in his hand, and a few deep wrinkles were carved between the bridge of his slender nose, and then swallowed them very hard, but the appearance of gritting his teeth, the swallowing process seemed to be quite painful for her.

"Ahem...... Ahem!" Probably not used to the taste of jerky, but Keya choked when she swallowed the second piece of jerky, and her face turned red, and Kirin quickly handed over the kettle.

"Swallow slowly, don't rush, no one will rob you. The unicorn patted the wild fairy girl on the back to help her calm down, and such an action fell into the eyes of the onlookers, and Xiude showed a rather complicated expression.

"You're really ......," Xiude wanted to say and stopped.

"What?" Qilin looked back at Xiude.

"I was treated like that last time, and now I'm doing this kind of thing...... I said, don't you have any resentment at all?" said Xiu De meaningfully.

You know, Kya was born in the wild elf tribe of Ralph, and her sister Pyrotis is the patriarch of the Ralph tribe. The last time the two of them were exploring the Empty Riding Graveyard, they had an encounter with Pyrotis and were framed by her, and it almost ended up being a meal for the Abyssal Lizard - even from the most benign point of view, Kirin and Pyrotis had no friendship at all, and according to ordinary people's minds, it would not be surprising that Kirin would take any revenge on Koya.

However, instead of showing any hope of revenge, Kirin has the same attitude as if he loves the wild fairy girl as his little sister.

Of course, Xiude doesn't think that Qilin is the kind of rotten good person who can't distinguish between the important and the heavy, whether it is the previous suppression of air thieves with his bare hands, the feat of flying the carriage that caused the accident in the street, or the assassin who killed the "Viper", his appearance is enough to be described as "killing and daring". In this case, can it be seen that the gentle treatment of the little goblin in front of him can be seen as that the incident of the empty riding cemetery last time was not taken seriously by the Qilin at all? If this is the case, Xiude has to admit that the amount of the Qilin is more than he expected, and this is very important.

"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Xiude put away his usual appearance and looked at Hei's companion with an unprecedentedly serious gaze.

"Of course there is resentment. Under his gaze, Kirin replied honestly. "But that's me and the wicked woman...... Well, the matter between him and Pyrotis has nothing to do with Kéa. ”

"And sister?" The wild fairy girl who was drinking water with her head down, her pointed ears moved twice, and she looked up at the unicorn. "Is there anything between you and your sister?"

"Well, well, it's a long story......" Seeing the puzzled light and shadow in those jade-like eyes, Qilin's forehead couldn't help but break out in a slight cold sweat. Wild goblins are not a race that is close to humans, and if they don't answer well, the trust relationship that they have built up with each other will collapse on the spot.

"Well, let me sue you. Just as Kirin was racking his brains about how to explain, someone's flirtatious voice sounded next to him. "To put it simply, this guy is obsessed with your sister, but at the same time he is entangled with another woman, and Pyrotis thinks he is in trouble, so she simply dumps him, so I asked him if he has any resentment towards your sister. ”

While Xiude relieved the siege of Qilin, he also pushed him into another fire pit. I saw that the little goblin's eyes widened for a moment, and his expression was full of shock when he looked at the unicorn. This kind of bloody plot similar to a youth novel has an extremely powerful lethal effect on the girls, but Keya has no doubt at all, and the hat of "Flower Heart Big Radish" has been firmly buckled on the head of the unicorn.

"Kirin, have you pursued your sister?"

“...... Huh?" the fact that he was too shocked deprived Kirin of his ability to think, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he cast a ferocious glance at someone who was talking nonsense on the spot. "Hey, what the hell are you talking about!"

"Isn't that so?" said Xiude, wagging his invisible tail and smiling extremely lewdly. "Or do you have another explanation?"

"Uh......" Qilin resisted the urge to pinch him to death, gritted his teeth and struggled for a long time, and then blushed and gave the least difficult answer. “...... I wasn't dumped anyway. ”

"See, he's still obsessed with your sister. Xiude leaned into the ear of the little goblin, and reminded her very cheaply in a way that anyone could hear. "Be careful, little sister, now that he's so good to you, maybe you'll help match him and your sister in the future?"

"Well, I'll help!" Keya responded to Xiude brightly, while looking at Qilin with admiration. "Qiqi, my sister is the strongest warrior in the tribe, and she also has the qualifications of a magic tool manipulator, the last time she fought with other tribes, she killed more than 30 first-class warriors on the other side by herself, so the men in the tribe will tremble with fear when they see your sister, and you dare to pursue her, it's really brave!"

"Your sister is so powerful?" Xiude blinked in surprise, and then suddenly remembered and asked, "Wait, I remember, the goblin clan is indeed a matriarchal society, right?"

"Yes?" replied in an innocent voice.

"I see, that's why the warriors of the wild goblins are all women...... Hmm, it's really a beautiful scenery that makes people drool......" Imagining a beautiful wild goblin, lined up to be inspected by the matriarch, Xiude couldn't help but drool, he patted Qilin's shoulder, and comforted in a sympathetic tone: "Qilin, it seems that your hope of turning over in the future is very slim? Although defeat is a doomed result, from the standpoint of a friend, I will still pray that you will fight until the last moment, even if you will be kicked out of bed......"

"You give me death!" Qilin finally couldn't help but release the killing intent in his heart.
