The surrounding trees are lush green, and bluebirds are chirping crisply. In the distance, two mountains, one blue and white and the other black and red, stand opposite each other, with white mist floating on the tops of their mountains.
It’s just that one side is formed by condensation of water vapor in the air, and the other side is evaporated by itself.
The bluebird perched on Jing Xia's shoulder was leisurely combing its feathers. The five of them were strolling in the forest while discussing the location of the spiritual fruit.
August studied the map on the screen and found that there seemed to be a small pond at the junction of the iceberg and the volcano. When he zoomed in, he saw the words "Sun Moon Lake" marked on the map.
Will spiritual fruits grow there?
At this moment, Jing Xia noticed something unusual. Pointing at the light spots dancing in the air, he spoke to his teammates.
“Look at those ephemera”
Herbert: "What's wrong?"
He saw nothing different about the little glowing things.
Lan Huaili did discover something.
"It's daytime now, and according to records, mayflies should appear at night."
Jing Xia: "Yes, and those golden dots of light are another kind of spirit monster. They only appear when day and night meet. And it should be noon here now."
August: "The bluebird is afraid of people, the tree demon is gentle..."
Milje looked at his red wrist with a frown, and at the blue bird on Jingxia's shoulder that was looking at them with its round eyes.
"So the creatures here are the opposite of their habits?"
August: "Almost. Then I should find the location of the spiritual fruit."
Milje: "Where? Over the volcano?"
August: "No, at Sun Moon Lake."
Milje, Lan Huaili, Herbert:?
Jing Xia: Sun Moon Lake? Could it be the Polar Eye?
The five people fought their way through the thorns and bushes and arrived at the foot of the two mountains. After passing through a layer of white fog, the clouds parted and the sun came out.
A tall purple tree came into view, with its roots on the left and right extending into the misty pools on both sides.
The water in Sun Lake is as red as magma, flowing with golden ripples, while the water in Moon Lake is crystal clear, icy blue with a hint of white light.
The trunks of the trees in the middle are all purple, except for the fruits hanging on the branches on both sides. The fruits above the Moon Lake are deep red with flame patterns, while the fruits above the Sun Lake are ice blue with ice cracks, clearly showing the two extremes.
Just by standing in the distance, you can feel the coldness of Moon Lake and the scorching heat of Sun Lake.
The blue bird on Jing Xia's shoulder, which was originally leisurely, stood up with its feathers when approaching Sun Moon Lake, spread its wings and swept across Jing Xia's neck, as if it was about to take off.
As soon as I saw Sun Moon Lake, it was like I saw something terrifying, and it flew into the air and disappeared.
Milje was startled by the blue bird that suddenly flew away, and inexplicably lowered his voice, for fear of startling the beast that was said to be the companion of the spiritual fruit.
"Is this Sun Moon Lake really that scary?"
August also lowered his voice: "It's better to be careful."
Herbert was about to take out his mecha to get the fruit, but Jing Xia held down his arm.
He had accompanied others to see the Bipolar Eye before, so he naturally knew how terrifying this pool of water was.
Jing Xia: "Be careful."
He took out a piece of iron from his body. This was a special material for mechas. Emperor Xiu had given it to him to play with before, and he casually put it in his pocket.
When entering the holographic cabin, the data of the iron block was scanned and came in with him.
With a strong throw, the iron block was thrown above the Moon Lake. As it came into contact with the mist emitted by the Moon Lake, it kept getting smaller. The moment it came into contact with the lake water, it melted into mist and merged into the white mist.
The other four: ...
Damn, Moon Lake is so scary, how about the fog in Sun Lake?
Lan Huaili: "There are still companion beasts that haven't come out yet."
August: "There."
He pointed to a corner of the tree trunk where a faint light was flickering from the reflection of the scales. Even after careful observation by several people, they could not see the full picture.
All that could be seen was a tail, a similar color to the trunk. The powerful tail, wrapped around the branch, its scales gleaming sharply at the edges.
Jing Xia: "A python?"
Milje: "Could it be a dragon?"
I immediately received a few cold stares from my teammates.
You think there are so many dragons? We only have one dragon in StarCraft, and its tail doesn't look like that.
Long Benlong——Jing Xia also shook his head.
"A dragon's tail wouldn't be so uniform. It could be a python or a dragon."
Milje: "Jiao?"
Auguste only knew a little about it from the mythology of their mentor Ye Yu's planet.
"It is said to be a metamorphosis process of scales transforming into a dragon."
Jing Xia: "That's about right."
The Jiao may be even more difficult to deal with than the Python.
The purple python that had been dozing lightly on a tree in the center of Sun Moon Lake has awakened. The snake's cold vertical pupils opened, and its head poked out from the treetops.
The thick tree trunk that was originally displayed in front of everyone turned out to be mostly made up of the python's body, and there were two wisps of feathers on the python's forehead, with a gradient color from dark to light.
Behind it, a pair of wings slowly spread out. The wings were so broad that their shadows directly covered most of the water in the pool. The wing tips gently brushed the water surface, causing ripples on the water on both sides.
Everyone: A snake with wings?! How do we defeat this? Quest designer, come out!
Jing Xia pulled his teammates back into the deep forest to avoid being discovered by the feathered serpent.
Looking at the coiled snake body and broad wings, I was deeply shocked. Quetzalcoatl is an extremely powerful existence in the mythology of any world, but there is no record of it in the interstellar world. So how did the designer design it?
Ogerstra opened the task panel and scrolled down to the design attribute. Four heads came over to see who designed this perverted task.
