Online game: Thunder Tyrant, I have infinite critical hits!

"Lei Hu, you wait here for Lao Zhao and the others. I'll go check on them first!"

Fearing that the sulfuric acid rain would extinguish the flames and cause unpredictable consequences, Jiang Yan immediately transformed into lightning and rushed into the torrential rain.

Crack!

A streak of deep purple lightning flashed rapidly through the rain, passing numerous stone buildings before finally arriving at an open area.

"This is..." Jiang Yan's gaze pierced through the torrential rain and immediately fell upon the center of the open area, where a huge shallow pit stood.

Flames spontaneously combusted in the shallow pit, their tails flickering and dimming.

The edge of the shallow pit was built up with layers of stones, and on the outer edge were hundreds of ancient people wearing animal skins!

Despite the torrential rain, these ancient people continued to kneel and worship the flames in the shallow pit.

Each time they knelt in worship, the flames in the shallow pit would flicker once.

It's exactly the same as the content in the mural!

Unfortunately, there was no hidden information... In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yanxin flew into a nearby stone building.

After emerging from his lightning-transformed state, Jiang Yan watched the ancient people's sacrificial ceremony from afar.

"Aren't these ancient people afraid of sulfuric acid rain?" Jiang Yan examined them closely and discovered that the animal skins on these ancient people, though seemingly simple, actually covered their vital parts, and the exposed skin was engraved with strange runes, which seemed to be able to keep out the sulfuric acid rain.

"Hello, outsider!"

Just as Jiang Yan was observing those ancient people, an old voice suddenly came from behind him.

Jiang Yan's heart tightened, and he quickly turned around to look, only to see an old man with a full head of white hair and wearing an animal skin standing kindly behind him.

Jiang Yan greeted him cautiously, "Hello, sir. I'm so sorry to bother you."

"I am the Great Elder of the Flame Tribe. You may call me Dark, outsider. And you are?" the old man said in a friendly manner.

"My name is Jiang Taigong." Seeing that the old man was quite easy to talk to, Jiang Yan immediately asked, "Elder Dak, my companion and I accidentally entered this place. May I ask what this place is?"

"This is a world abandoned by God," Dark sighed. "And we are all sinners."

Criminals?

Jiang Yan asked curiously, "Elder Dak, could you tell me more about it?"

Dark sighed and said, "We were once a race of gods, serving the Fire God for generations. That flame was the divine fire that allowed us to communicate with the Fire God."

Jiang Yan subconsciously turned his head to look at the ball of flame in the empty square.

This flame is truly amazing. It can still burn fiercely even under the torrential rain of sulfuric acid, which is definitely extraordinary. However, its current state is not good, as if it may go out at any time!

"And then?" Jiang Yan turned his gaze back to Dak.

Dark slowly said, "Later, a thief sneaked into our tribe and stole a ball of divine fire! The Fire God was furious, severed all ties with us, and unleashed divine punishment!"

Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Is divine punishment this sulfuric acid rain?"

Dark sighed and nodded, then continued, "Under this divine punishment, our divine fire is rapidly dimming. In order to keep the divine fire burning, we can only keep offering sacrifices, hoping that one day we can communicate with the fire god again."

"What a cliché plot..." Jiang Yan said with a smile, "Where there's a will, there's a way. I believe the Flame God will surely bestow miracles once more!"

"Jiang Taigong, thank you for your kind words," Dak said with a smile. "Our ceremony will last all day. If you don't mind, you can bring your companions to watch the ceremony."

Are you attending the ceremony?

Jiang Yan was about to agree when he suddenly realized that something was not quite right in the way things were going.

If this were a hidden map, I could just watch the ceremony, but this is a dungeon!

Where are the monsters?

Where is the BOSS?

Jiang Yan frowned more and more deeply, then suddenly remembered the stolen divine fire and quickly asked, "Elder Dak, may I ask who the thief who stole the divine fire is?"

"It's a shameless snake named Felix!" Dark's face was filled with hatred. "Our tribe once helped it, but it chose to repay kindness with enmity!!"

snake?

Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Is that snake, that is, Felix, in the swamp to the west?"

"How did you know?" Dark looked at him in surprise.

Jiang Yan replied, "When my companions and I entered this place, we saw a swamp in the distance."

Dark nodded, then, as if struck by a thought, his cloudy eyes suddenly gleamed with a sharp light: "Jiang Taigong, perhaps, perhaps you are the miracle sent down by the God of Fire!"

Jiang Yan instantly understood what the other party meant, but in order to bargain, he naturally pretended not to know anything: "What does Elder Dark mean?"

"As you can see, under this rain of divine punishment, our divine fire is in danger of being extinguished at any moment. We cannot leave this place, so we can only ask you and your companions to help our tribe reclaim the stolen divine fire!" Dark said in a deep voice.

What about the reward?

Jiang Yan looked at Dark with a troubled expression: "This..."

Dark seemed to see through Jiang Yan's thoughts and said, "If you and your companion can retrieve the divine fire, I can decide to give you and your companion each a wisp of it!"

A wisp of divine fire?

Suddenly, Jiang Yan remembered something and hurriedly asked, "Is this divine fire a spiritual substance?"

Dark nodded: "Divine fire is naturally a highly spiritual substance!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan asked in confusion, "If that's the case, then the stolen divine fire has most likely been absorbed by Felix."

"Haha, don't worry, without the approval of the gods, Felix cannot absorb the power of the divine fire," Dark laughed.

"Then what about us?" Jiang Yan looked at him with some difficulty.

"If you can reclaim the divine fire, our tribe can reconnect with the Fire God! And as heroes, you will receive not only the divine fire but also rewards from the Fire God!" Dark said excitedly. "So, are you willing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yan heard a system notification:

[Ding~ Elder Dark of the Flame Tribe has issued you a quest: Find the stolen Divine Fire. Quest reward: Divine Fire*5! Quest failure penalty: None!]

[Accept/Decide?]

There was no reason to hesitate, and Jiang Yan decisively chose to accept.

The moment Jiang Yan accepted the mission, Lei Hu, Zhao Shanshan, Xiao Dongxie, and others on the other side also received a system notification at the same time.

"Elder Dak, how long does this rain usually last?" Jiang Yan was already eager to go to the swamp in the west.

Dark shook his head slightly: "Divine punishment is unpredictable, and I don't know when this rain will stop."

"I see." Jiang Yan frowned slightly and said, "Elder Dak, I will set off with my companions after the rain stops. I'll take my leave now."

As he spoke, Jiang Yan transformed into lightning and returned along the same route with lightning speed.

After Jiang Yan left, Dak slowly walked to the stone eaves, his cloudy eyes revealing a hint of coldness.
