Resting Place

Qing Niao asked, “This is considered treason, right? Then are we still going to Fire Dragon City? If we go now, won’t we be courting death?”

Andre shook his head. “If Claude wants to betray the country, the others in Fire Dragon City might not be willing.

“Therefore, not only do we have to go, but we also have to speed up. Fire Dragon City must be at the peak of conflict now. When Claude stabilizes Fire Dragon City, it will be even more troublesome for us to go over.”

Andre pointed at the dark coniferous forest. “I think Ivan is talking to James and Teacher Elsa about Fire Dragon City.”

Fang Ping sighed. “This is such a big matter. Our team can’t help much, right? It’s still dangerous.”

“It’s dangerous everywhere. Battles are the best way to train people. Haven’t you realized that you’ve experienced much more in the past ten days than studying in a team for a month? I believe you’ve gained more experience.

Moreover, it should still be useful.”

As Andre spoke, he pointed at the other side of the bonfire. “His identity should be very useful in Fire Dragon City.”

Fang Ping followed Andre’s finger and looked over. It was a person in a black robe.

“The former lord of Fire Dragon City, Duke Dewey’s son, Chen Long.”

The bright firelight shone on the black robe, imprinting an orange-red halo.

Chen Long sat alone and quietly watched the flames.

The night in the coniferous forest was warmer than in the wilderness.

Moreover, there was wood here. Burn it into charcoal, dig a pit, bury it, and lay the soil. It was a simple ground heating.

Being able to sleep on warm ground was much more comfortable than sleeping on the ice path a few days ago.

Andre was still chatting with someone. Many people came to look for Andre and asked him why he hadn’t come for so long, as well as to find out Andre’s current strength.

There were also some people who didn’t just come to care, such as Red Camellia Snake.

Andre waved his hand nervously and kept retreating. “Calm down. Let’s talk nicely. Don’t touch me!”

“You left so suddenly without telling me. Do you know how much I miss you?”

“You, don’t, don’t, don’t. There are people here…”

“Who’s there?” Red Camellia Snake raised her eyebrows and looked around.

Andre looked to the side. “Fang Ping, Fang Ping, come quickly!”

Fang Ping glanced at Andre and continued to crawl into the warm blanket. He pulled up the sleeping bag. “Take care of it yourself.”

“You!”

“Look, who’s there? Oh, or are you looking for a place with no one around…”

Fang Ping did not have the energy to get involved in the matter between Andre and Red Camellia Snake. She looked like she was just teasing Andre. Nothing would happen.

He wondered how Moon Bell was doing now.

He could not sleep even with his eyes closed.

…

In the early morning of the snowy moon, Fang Ping was woken up by the cold.

He reached for the Elemental Helmet that had fallen on his head and put it on. The set took effect, and the coldness subsided slightly.

The Elemental Set was uncomfortable to sleep in. It was so uncomfortable that he could not sleep. But if he did not wear it to sleep, it was even more uncomfortable and cold that he could not sleep.

He yawned and got up, packed his sleeping bag and prepared to wash up and eat breakfast.

There were already people around him who were panting and training. Fang Ping was also woken up by this sound every day.

Someone had built another fire in the middle of the forest. Fang Ping planned to go over and warm himself by the fire.

On the way, he saw two familiar people under the light of the fire.

It was Andre and Lisa. What were they doing?

Fang Ping squatted by the fire, watching them.

“Andre, you’ve been gone for so long. What happened?”

“Cut the crap. Just tell me if you want to spar. I haven’t fought for more than half a month. I’m suffocating.”

“You look a little arrogant. That’s good too. I’ll teach you a lesson and let you remember how you lost to me.”

Fang Ping sat by the fire, eating yellow melon pancakes and watching the show. Lisa had always been very strong. Andre had come to find trouble with Lisa early in the morning. Could he have awakened?

With that said, he forgot to ask Andre last night if he had awakened.

As he was thinking, a fight had already started in front of him.

Andre held the two-handed sword in his hand and charged forward. He first used the most common slash. Lisa raised her staff to block it, then turned sideways and kicked Andre’s chest with her long legs. Lisa’s strength was not low. It was not good to be kicked by her.

However, at this moment, Andre’s speed was even faster. He was so fast that Fang Ping could not react in time. He saw him kick sideways, hitting Lisa’s waist. Her entire body flew out like a cannonball.

Fang Ping’s eyes widened. Andre’s kick had arrived first. Was his speed that exaggerated?

Lisa stood up from the ground and patted the dirt off her body. She looked a little disheveled.

“Characteristic First Time. Are you here to show off?”

Andre bent down and picked up the staff on the ground. He threw it to Lisa and said, “I lost to you previously. Now that I’ve awakened, of course I have to come back and find revenge.”

Lisa gripped her staff. “Then this time, it’s a draw.”

“How is it a draw? If you’re not convinced, come again. I’ll let you attack first.”

Lisa did not answer. Instead, she glanced at Fang Ping, who was watching by the fire.

Fang Ping quickly said, “That’s right, Andre. It’s a draw.”

...

“Alright, then it’s a draw. When we return to the team, I’ll fight you in the arena.”

Lisa smoothed her clothes. “Then all the more you can’t beat me.” She turned to leave.

“Look at how arrogant she is. Just you wait.”

“You really can’t beat her.”

It was only after taking a look at Lisa just now that Fang Ping realized that Lisa’s characteristic was really strong. Her Strength increased by 4 points, which was 6 points of Strength. The damage caused could not be reduced, and the range increased by a hundred meters.

In other words, if she could deal 60 damage to a target within 100 meters, it could be said that whoever died would die.

“Do you know what her characteristics are? Forget it, I won’t ask.” Andre hung his sword back on his back. “I’m going for a run. Do you want to join me?”

“You don’t have to.”

“Then lend me your backpack. It’s too light to run like this.”

“Sure.”

He watched as Andre ran around with two backpacks.

...

Actually, many people were doing the same.

Soon, the team set off again.

Ivan didn’t leave. He sat on the Demon Flame Chimera and followed behind the team. It looked like they were going to Fire Dragon City together.

By noon, the surrounding coniferous forest began to thin out. The further they went, the fewer coniferous trees there were.

Fang Ping also began to have slight breathing difficulties. Every time he walked a distance, he had to stop and take a deep breath.

Is this altitude sickness? Then the transition from evergreen coniferous forest to alpine meadows.

Geography was really an interesting thing.

Grayish-white stones began to appear by the roadside. Some were big and some were small. They were scattered around.

Fang Ping looked into the distance. There seemed to be small mounds of soil. They looked like tombs.

“It’s a cemetery. This place is called the resting place. When the people of Fire Dragon City die, they will come here to be buried. After coming here, Fire Dragon City is not far away.”

The one who spoke was Black Robe’s Chen Long.

“I didn’t say anything, did I? How do you know what I’m thinking?”

“That’s my guess.”

Fang Ping did not continue. He looked into the distance, as if something was moving.historical
