It was a long, seemingly endless passageway.
It is entirely made of solid ice.
However, its exterior has begun to melt, seemingly because the person who created it has moved far away, and thus its energy is gradually dissipating.
The passageway is wide enough for about five people to walk side by side.
The elemental fluctuations that Dai Lele had sensed earlier originated from this place.
The two entered the tunnel, where the river outside seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier. However, as the ice melted, this barrier gradually receded into the depths of the tunnel.
"Let's go!" After making a quick decision, Xiao He ran forward with Dai Lele.
The main force should be ahead; we need to find them quickly.
"Bang--"
"Snap!"
Outside the ice was a strange fish with an incredibly hard head and a mouth full of sharp teeth, seemingly attracted by Xiao He's "light bulb".
Just as the two were about to ignore it, an indescribable feeling suddenly came from all directions.
"Damn! A swarm of piranhas!" Dai Lele couldn't help but blurt out.
In the water, her perception was even stronger than Xiao He's.
She could already detect things by "feeling" even before they came into view.
But at that moment, a notification lit up simultaneously.
[Team Mission (First Stage): Rescue people from a monster attack. ( )]
The two of them were suddenly taken aback.
Just as the piranhas were closing in on them, the system task refreshed.
"Could it be that there really are people inside, and because we made a commotion, we ended up saving them by accident..." Xiao He suddenly realized, but then it turned into an even more difficult situation.
Let's keep going. What if we end up harming these four thousand people?
Let's retreat; Dai Lele's magic might not be enough to help them get back to the ground.
"Bang bang bang..."
More and more man-eating fish began to crash into the solid ice of the tunnel. The ice, which had already lost its support, suddenly shattered like glass, and shocking cracks spread out in all directions.
“If that doesn’t work, let’s fight here!” Dai Lele retorted, picking up her baseball bat.
Although she majored in three disciplines, she only had "three" skills.
First skill: Fireball, Iceball, Waterball;
Second skill: Fire Wall, Ice Wall, Water Wall;
The third skill is a sea of fire, an ice field, and a body of water.
Talent skill: Element switching.
Yes, it has "three" skills, the only downside being that they consume mana.
"Waaah—"
Seemingly sensing the killing intent, the dragon cub in Xiao He's arms opened its eyes.
In an instant, the overwhelming swarm of man-eating fish stopped in their tracks.
It was as if its gaze had a freezing effect, calming even the churning river water.
They are confused.
Both parties, or rather all three parties, are puzzled.
The dragon cub, newly introduced to this world, wondered who it was.
The piranha swarm that had recently returned to the world were now wondering who the dragon cub was.
Xiao He and Dai Lele were puzzled as to what was wrong with these piranhas.
All of this happened in a single second, just as Xiao He finished chanting his "protection."
Three beams of light landed on the heads of the two people and the dragon.
The latter looked at it with its right eye, then turned to its left eye, and finally couldn't resist. It stretched out its bat-like "hand" and desperately stretched out its wings, trying to reach the glowing circle, like a baby playing with the bell ball on a stroller.
In the deathly silence between them, only it twisted and turned recklessly.
The fish hesitated.
Their ancestral genes instilled in them an inexplicable fear. Although it was just a dragon cub, the suppression that seemed to come from its bloodline prevented them from daring to act recklessly even after ten thousand years.
But looking at the two humans beside it, they exude a "it smells so good" vibe...
