This is an experience he summarized in practice: after wearing a fire-resistant ring, the closer you are to the flames, the larger the fire wave will be attracted.
After only a short while, the raging fire exploded instantly, and a surging wave of fire swept towards them.
He Ao, who was prepared, quickly dodged to the side.
And in
The lynx, resisting the allure of the ghost mushroom and torn between eating it and its temptation, was startled.
Its body arched instantly, and it leaped to the side of the giant rat.
It's now!
He Ao followed closely behind, and before the lynx could recover its senses, he slashed out with his sword, slicing across the lynx's neck.
Then, without looking back, he charged toward the giant rat behind the lynx.
Before the giant rat even realized what was happening, its brain was pierced by a sharp bayonet.
As the two strange beasts fell, Heo emerged from the flames.
He turned around, looked at the two corpses on the ground, walked to the giant rat, and pulled out the bayonet that had pierced the rat's brain.
The fifth one.
He was currently at the edge of the central area, and the surging flames were rapidly converging towards him.
No new signal flares were launched in the sky, which means that no new Class C alien beasts have entered for the time being.
He rode his motorcycle and began moving towards the areas where the ghost mushrooms were most concentrated, where the allure was strongest.
For the entire Ghost Mushroom area, the allure of the Ghost Mushrooms, which had suddenly increased due to the flames, was now rapidly weakening. Although the allure of the surviving individuals had increased, the number of surviving individuals was decreasing rapidly.
New ghost mushrooms kept turning to dust in the flames, which then ignited an even more violent fire.
He Ao leaned over the motorcycle, navigating through the raging flames.
He would stop every now and then to snatch some burning powder from the ghost mushrooms that hadn't yet been burned from the raging fire.
Because of the fireproof ring, he dared not touch the flames directly, and always moved forward by brushing against the edge of the flames.
New signal flares lit up the sky again, but this time they were slightly different from the usual ones. This time, the signal flares exploded in the sky, illuminating a dazzling red glow.
He frowned slightly, rode his motorcycle across the sea of fire, and quickly arrived at the outer edge of the Ghost Mushroom area. Here, his wireless device was able to vaguely connect to external signals.
"Dad... Dad... Can you hear me?"
Aini's voice, accompanied by loud noise, came through the walkie-talkie. She had clearly called many times, and her voice was already hoarse.
He Ao connected to the walkie-talkie and moved a little towards the direction of the flare. "I can hear you, what's wrong?"
"Dad! The old clan chief said... you must run!"
Annie had clearly lost her composure; her voice was intermittent, though the signal was better than before.
The old patriarch seemed to have noticed that Aini was losing control of her emotions. His voice came through the communication channel, "Pete, we just saw the footprints of a colossal beast in the outer area. These ghost mushrooms have attracted something terrifying. The mission has failed. Retreat! Leave the rest to the gods."
This was the first time He Ao had heard the old patriarch speak so quickly. After these words, a heavy breathing sound came from the old patriarch's side.
This tone still put some burden on the old clan chief.
A colossal beast signifies one thing: Class B.
Rank B doesn't necessarily mean a huge size, but the vast majority of super-large alien beasts are Rank B.
"Has everyone else evacuated?"
He Ao glanced around at the surging crowd
Despite the raging flames, large patches of ghost mushrooms remained unburnt in the area he could see.
“The Wilderness Wanderer Clan has also discovered footprints on the outer perimeter, and the outer defenses will likely collapse soon,” the old patriarch said quickly. “The Andavi Clan can hold out for a while, but once the outer defenses collapse, we won’t be able to withstand the onslaught of the alien beasts for long, and we will have to retreat immediately.”
"How much longer can it hold out?"
He Ao slowly turned the car around.
Upon hearing this question, the old clan chief was taken aback, but finally quickly replied, "Ten minutes at most."
“Give me ten minutes,” He Ao said, taking a fire helmet from the storage compartment under the motorcycle and putting it on. He leaned down, his chest close to the scorching motorcycle body. “Take care of my daughter for me.”
The motorcycle, billowing with heat, plunged into the raging flames.
The raging flames engulfed He Ao's body, and his fireproof suit tore open in many places in an instant, the tough fireproof fibers quickly curling up.
The time it took to pass through the flames was very short, and Heo quickly landed in the sub-outer layer between the outer edge and the central area.
Because He Ao and the old patriarch's plan was to start burning from both the inside and outside sides, this area, located on the edge and in the center, became the safest and was the last place to be burned.
The ghost mushrooms here are still quite lush, and some of them are even still white, not scorched yellow by the flames.
If there's any place where Ghost Mushroom can still attract B-rank alien beasts at this moment, it's this place.
Some of the charred wheels landed in the still lush Ghost Mushroom field, slicing along long tracks and crushing the Ghost Mushrooms.
Without looking back, He Ao controlled the motorcycle to 'drift' a distance through the Ghost Mushroom field, then turned the throttle up to the maximum and sped off like a phantom.
A raging wave of fire exploded behind him like boiling bubbles, and the spewing flames quickly ignited the surrounding ghost mushrooms.
It appears to be just an accident; the ghost mushrooms that had been roasted for a long time happened to be able to ignite, and the flames spread from there.
However, the flames that were accidentally ignited continued to expand toward He Ao, like a raging fire dragon, closely following behind him.
Like a cunning hunter chasing its prey.
He glanced at the flames behind him through the slightly tilted rearview mirror.
His face beneath the helmet was expressionless.
As he predicted, wearing the fire-resistant ring and coming into direct contact with the Flower of Flames would result in the flames' most powerful pursuit and retaliation.
The raging fire dragon followed Heo, burning the ghost mushrooms and even the exposed skeletons along the way to ashes.
From high above, it seemed as if the surging waves of fire in the entire area were gathering around Heo.
During this process, He Ao has encountered several walls of fire blocking his way.
Faced with this situation, he had no choice but to rush in. His fireproof suit was mostly torn apart from passing through the flames several times, revealing the scalded and mangled flesh inside.
The more walls of fire one crashes through, the greater the attraction to the flames seems to be, and the stronger the flames that gather together become.
The fire surrounding Heo
The flames grew larger and larger, and some of them reached a terrifying temperature as they were fueled by the gathering of ghost mushroom powder.
Under the scorching heat of the flames, the ghost mushroom was quickly burned to ashes.
However, the Ghost Mushrooms did not sit idly by and wait for their doom. In their last moments before burning out, they unleashed an allure far exceeding their usual intensity.
These temptations, in the instant they erupt, can even rival the most intense temptation of a fire just starting to burn.
Ten minutes is a long time. He Ao had no idea how fast he had accelerated. The motorcycle's dashboard was already damaged.
As he traversed the small hills, he felt as if his body was not touching the ground, constantly flying out with each sprint.
Ten minutes is a very short time.
As the ten minutes were about to expire, the motorcycle beneath He Ao completely fell apart, shattering into several pieces. He Ao was thrown off by the immense inertia.
It rolled into the mud.
He looked up and saw a huge flame engulfing the area in front of him, the raging fire having already burned the ghost mushrooms in front of him to ashes.
He looked back again, and behind him was the 'fire dragon' that had been chasing him.
He felt a powerful hunger welling up from the depths of his heart, the final cry of the dying ghost mushroom.
He struggled to his feet, glanced at the flames surging from both sides, took a deep breath, removed his fire-resistant ring, and activated stealth.
The flames on both sides moved a little slower, but they were still rushing towards this side.
He Ao looked ahead into the night.
It's here.
A huge black shadow landed in front of He Ao; it was a bat that was more than half a head taller than He Ao.
This is a C-level alien beast that has infiltrated the area. Its appearance here, without any signal flare alert, means that the Andavi family's defenses have partially failed.
But this is not what He Ao wanted to wait for.
He gripped the short sword and looked at the enormous bat.
At this moment, the bat is bending down, trying to devour the few remaining ghost mushrooms on the ground.
He Ao's grip on the sword tightened slightly.
If he loses the bet, he'll have no choice but to kill the beast and run away.
At that very moment, a giant foot descended from the sky, landing on the bat's head and instantly crushing the bat beast into mincemeat.
He took off his helmet and looked up.
A huge shadow obscured the stars and the bright moon.
The raging flames were all blocked by that enormous body at this moment.
Chapter 451 The Flames Die Out, Promotion (Long Chapter)
This was the first time He Ao had ever seen a creature with such a high energy content.
This is a huge, cone-shaped creature, tens of meters tall, with its body covered in large rocks and soil. In the thick soil, there are even lush trees growing, forming a small forest.
If it weren't for the four thick legs covered by hard exoskeletons beneath this enormous body, He Ao would have thought a mountain peak was standing before him.
Or rather, it is a moving mountain.
A vast, seemingly endless energy flows and gathers within this mountain peak.
This is the life form with the highest energy intensity that He Ao has ever seen.
Even at her peak, Ilya An was orders of magnitude smaller than this monster.
He Ao even suspected that this was not a B-grade alien beast, but an angel.
