Chapter Ninety-Four: The Problem of Survival

"Let's ask how to get out, or where to eat. Zoya whispered to Fayer, who nodded and commanded the Dreadhorn King in a magical voice.

The Dreadhorn King inquired in the ancient language of the Feathered Humans, and after a few moments, a door suddenly appeared on the wall, flashing arrows pointing in the direction of progress. The emotionless tone repeats: "Please follow the arrow, please follow the arrow......"

Everyone looked at it and walked up cautiously, this time the ground did not move automatically, and they simply walked up to the passage behind the door in a vigilant queue.

Fayir, Dan, and Dreadhorn are at the front, and they are the strongest of the team at the moment. In the middle are Achille, Luna, and Lovellan, and in the end are Zoya and Cantu in the back.

They walked out for a while only to find that inside this huge complex, there were countless smooth passages, which were connected to each other and formed an incomparably large labyrinth. In addition, if the door here is not opened, you will not be able to detect it at all, so it is estimated that a person who has not been instructed will be trapped here.

They walked for a while and came to an atrium with direct sunlight. There were some normal plants here, and Zoya saw two banana trees and some berry vines. The trees and vines were covered with fruits, and the ground was covered with fruits that had fallen from ripeness.

Everyone cheered and walked over quickly, Zoya and Cantu are experts in biology, they quickly checked all the plants, and after confirming that they were ordinary varieties and could be eaten normally, everyone ate with confidence.

But the arrows didn't stop. Walk through this small atrium and continue your way.

"Looks like this is not the place to serve food. I don't think we'll have enough fruit trees to eat three meals. Kantu had been studying the structure of the building since the beginning, and although this complex was different from anything he had ever seen, as a building covering such a large area, there must be a division between its living and functional areas. Everything you see in front of you is a functional area, and you don't see any facilities suitable for human habitation.

"Well, let's grab some food and move on. Dan, are you ready to make a mark?" Zoya unknowingly took the lead in the group for the time being. After all, almost everyone is a member of her circus. As soon as she spoke at this moment, almost everyone was accustomed to following.

Dan nodded, and along the way he was marking it with the special spices of Sugon, a taste for the untrained. It's simply imperceptible. In order to prevent not being able to find the original path. He's always marking. But suddenly it was sucked into the jar by the bottom plate. He didn't expect it, so he couldn't go back to the exit where everyone had entered in the first place.

Achille had already switched to hugging Luna, who had been terrified. As hard as Achille tried to cover her eyes, she saw the terrible changes that had taken place in the Trials of the Drake and Deirlandor. Although Luna prayed for them intently, after relaxing at the moment, the little girl walked a little weakly.

On the other hand, Lovelan's situation was not much better, and the last time she saw internal organ fragments or something, she vomited for a long time. This time, seeing the crazy self-harm of a person and a dragon, it was already very good that she could endure it without throwing it up. Just now she grabbed a few berries in her hand, and after playing with them for a long time, she still didn't have the appetite to eat.

Cantu and Dan quickly scooped up everything they could eat and brought it with their clothes. The group quickly continued to follow the directional arrows again, and this time it was not long before they came across a second patio. It is said that it is a patio, but in fact, there is a transparent covering on it, and the sun shines through the ceiling, and for this island, time seems to stand still. It's been so long since they've been up, and the sun still hangs high and doesn't seem to even move.

There are also some plants in the patio, including palms and iron trees and ferns. People who are accustomed to living in the jungle quickly took action. Palm leaves are rolled into containers, and small openings are made in the roots of several thick ferns to draw out the sap inside. Although everyone ate some fruit just now, they haven't been hydrated for so long, and they are all very thirsty.

After filling the few containers on everyone's body, the remaining fern sap was drunk, after all, this place is so big, I don't know how long it will take to find a water source.

After drinking the sap, Kantu looked around, and said thoughtfully: "These plants in the atrium should not grow naturally, I guess someone planted them on purpose." If we see such green areas again soon, it means that we are not far from the living areas of the city. It looks like the arrows are taking us to a place where we can rest and eat. ”

As soon as everyone heard this, they were in good spirits and immediately continued on the road. Sure enough, as Cantu had speculated, more and more of these plant-filled patios appeared along the way. Later, in order to save time, everyone no longer stopped to collect water and food, but hurried to go.

Eventually, the shoulders led them under a massive domed auditorium. It looks like a vast greenhouse garden, with a variety of flowers and fruit bending the branches. You can also see bees, butterflies and other insects, which finally makes the island look a little more alive, and it no longer feels as cold and empty as it did just now.

But Fayle froze at the sight of the massive metal object hidden in the middle of the forest, so much so that the Dreadhorn King who was following him crashed directly into him.

"What's wrong?" Sayir, Zoya asked, looking in the direction Earl was staring straight in, "What's that?"

"That's the Soul Crucible! Fayle said hatefully as he looked at the faΓ§ade of the inverted triangular metal building peeking out of the branches and leaves, as if he were looking at vipers and demons.

Dan is the only one here who has seen the soul furnace except for Fayle, he knows the stakes of this thing, he has seen what it looks like, and he said that he rarely speaks at the moment: "Since this is the territory of the dragon, it is normal to have a dragon's magic weapon. We can go and see, maybe that's why the prompt sound asks us to come. ”

"yes, maybe the Soul Forge is short of good ingredients, and we just delivered it to the door. Fayle muttered angrily, and then nudged the Dreadhorn King, "Go, ask what to do next, how can we get out of the island." ”

The Dreadhorn King walked back to the passage, knocked on the wall again, and then began to ask questions in the language of the Ancient Feather Terrans, Kantu could almost understand most of them, and explained to the crowd, "He's asking why we are here, and how to get out of the island. ”

After a while, the chime sounded again.

The testers rest, the visitors wait, and they are not allowed to leave without permission. "What does that mean...... We're locked up here, and the Boss and the dragon have gone to rest?" Achille couldn't help but ask.

"It looks like Deerlando's challenge is not done yet, we have to wait here. Zoya randomly found a large stone and sat down, and there were many such large and small stones around, all of which were sunken in the middle, and it seemed that they were just for people to sit on.

Kantu looked around a few stones in a circle and concluded, "These are hand-carved chairs, and it's nice to have such a natural and simple design." Then he picked a piece and made it, moved his ass to feel it, and then added: "The curvature of this excavation is simply amazing, it fits the body perfectly, and it must be a skilled designer and engineer." ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, an old voice replied to him in Elven language: "My good boy, you really have vision." ”

"What!" Cantu slammed to his feet, nervously looking around, "Teacher?"

Zoya had heard the voice too, but when she was born, the older elf was said to have died, so she hadn't heard his voice at all. But Kantu has lived with his two masters for at least a thousand years, and it stands to reason that he will never recognize the wrong person.

"Teacher, where are you? So you didn't die, but came to this island?" cried Cantu with joy, and walked around the stone, looking for the teacher's mark. It didn't take long to see the longbow mark under a small round stone, hidden by the blades of maran grass. (To be continued......)
