Is the closed beta test of King of Loque over? The official release is here!

Mo Fan pushed open the last treasure chest and took out a gem from inside.

"The right side is cleared!"

The two looked up and saw that the customs exit was less than ten meters ahead.

Meanwhile, in the left passage, Fire Dragon and Elegant Swan finished off the last water droplet and transformed into two streaks of light, flying back to their respective owners.

"Well done." Mo Fan patted Huo Wulong on the head.

[Countdown: 45 seconds]

Without any hesitation, the two people and their two pets stepped directly into the golden exit.

[Ding! Level 9 successfully cleared!]

[The Mysterious Land has been fully cleared! Rewards are being calculated...]

......

now.

A tree hole adventure game.

Zhao Mingyuan was running for his life.

The wind whistled in his ears; he was running so hard his lungs felt like they were going to explode.

Just ten seconds ago, he thought his plan was flawless.

As the little T-shirt tiptoed up the first treasure chest, the giant ape, as large as a small mountain, was still snoring loudly. The countdown stopped steadily at the last 20 seconds.

Immediately afterwards, the guardian dog carefully carried the second treasure chest on its back. The countdown remained unchanged, and there was still plenty of time.

Zhao Mingyuan was secretly delighted; this game wasn't so bad after all. He rubbed his hands together and swiftly picked up the third treasure chest.

But just as his fingers touched the third treasure chest and lifted it off the ground!

Chapter 57 The Source of Heat and Water

The countdown on the panel, which originally had 20 seconds left, suddenly flashed and instantly turned into a glaring "0"!

"Holy crap?!"

Zhao Mingyuan's scalp tingled instantly, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

"Roar--!!!"

A deafening roar exploded deep within the cave, the terrifying sound wave causing rocks to rain down from the cave ceiling.

The giant ape, which had been fast asleep, suddenly opened its scarlet eyes, and a violent aura instantly swept through the entire nest.

"run!"

Zhao Mingyuan didn't have time to think about what was going on. He roared, grabbed the heavy treasure chest in his arms, and ran away.

The little T-shirt and its protective dog were also terrified. The two of them, one person and one pet, used all their strength to run desperately towards the cave exit.

Behind them, the giant ape angrily pounded its chest and strode forward with its powerful legs, chasing after them with earth-shaking force.

"What exactly is going on? Can't we move the third treasure chest?"

While frantically fidgeting with his legs, Zhao Mingyuan cursed under his breath.

"Or is there something wrong with this third treasure chest itself? Is it the final trigger that awakens the giant ape?!"

He's kicking himself now. He should have known better than to be so greedy and just grabbed the two treasure chests and made a quick getaway.

"boom!"

The giant ape slammed its paw against the cave wall, sending a huge boulder flying past Zhao Mingyuan's shoulder before crashing into the passageway ahead, startling him into a cold sweat.

Several sharp spikes suddenly sprang up from the floor of the passage ahead; these were traps that had been there since the beginning of the journey.

"Jump!"

Zhao Mingyuan, clutching the treasure chest, leaped up and narrowly avoided the ground spikes.

The protective dog easily leaped over the obstacle using all four legs.

The little T-shirt, clutching a treasure chest even larger than itself, comically twisted its body in mid-air before crashing heavily to the ground. It then scrambled to its feet and continued running.

"Don't look back! Charge out and victory is our goal!"

Zhao Mingyuan held the treasure chest tightly, using every ounce of strength he had.

If they were caught up, they would definitely be slapped into mincemeat and kicked out of the secret realm.

......

On the other side...

Mysterious Land mini-game.

The scene before Mo Fan and Feng Ling'er's eyes suddenly distorted.

Immediately afterwards, the familiar panel notification sound rang in both of their minds simultaneously, carrying a cold, mechanical announcement:

Congratulations to players Mo Fan and Feng Ling'er for successfully clearing the final level – Level 9!

[Two players were simultaneously detected collecting a total of 50 rubies and 50 sapphires during the game.]

[Review: Perfect completion!]

[Final Completion Rewards: Small Source of Heat x1, Small Source of Water x1.]

As the notification tone ended, a dazzling white light flashed.

Mo Fan felt his feet become solid, and the oppressive, dungeon-like air around him instantly dissipated, replaced by the fresh scent of grass and trees in the secret realm.

They were teleported out.

The two returned to the stone wall with the special pattern that they had started with.

The patterns that had once shimmered with light on the stone wall had now completely dimmed, clearly indicating that this one-time game had been shut down for the two of them.

"Finally, I've cleared it. Although it's a small game, it was actually quite difficult." Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Ling'er nodded slightly, a relaxed smile appearing on her cool face.

She felt very pleased to be able to cooperate so well with Mo Fan.

The two simultaneously opened their backpack panels to check out the so-called "final reward".

A fireball that was constantly burning and jumping appeared out of thin air in Mo Fan's hand.

The fireball did not emit scorching heat; instead, it exuded an extremely pure and gentle energy fluctuation.

It seemed to have a life of its own, slowly circulating in Mo Fan's palm, with a faint sound of flames peeling away.

In Feng Ling'er's hand, a transparent water sphere appeared, seemingly flowing inside. The water rippled, was crystal clear, and emitted a soft, aquamarine glow.

The two of them checked the attribute panels of the two items.

【Source of Heat (Small)】

[Type: Special Item]

[Description: One of the six elements, containing the power of fire.]

[Effect: Can be used on fire-attribute pets. After use, it will increase the pet's primal power.]

【The Source of Water (Small)】

[Type: Special Item]

[Description: One of the six elements, containing the power of water.]

[Effect: Can be used on water-attribute pets. After use, it will enhance the pet's innate power.]

"One of the six elements? The power of origin?" Mo Fan raised an eyebrow, staring at the source of heat in his hand, and quickly began to calculate in his mind.

He remembered that there were indeed six elements in the game "Roco Kingdom", but that was just a concept introduced during an event.

He hadn't paid much attention to it either.

“You don’t know anything about this thing.” Mo Fan looked at Feng Ling’er.

"I don't know, but enhancing the power of origin... that doesn't sound like a simple increase in level."

Looking at the Water Source in her hand, Feng Ling'er analyzed softly, "It's more like enhancing a pet's potential, just like a Fire Spirit Stone."

Mo Fan nodded in agreement with Feng Ling'er's opinion.

Looking at the Source of Heat in his hand, Mo Fan turned to look at the Fire Dance Dragon that was flying beside him.

The Fire Dragon was clearly also drawn to the intense allure emanating from the Source of Heat; its eyes were filled with longing, and even the flames on its tail burned even more fiercely.

"Want it?" Mo Fan smiled.

"Roar!" Fire Dragon nodded eagerly.

"Well."

Mo Fan handed over the Source of Heat he was holding.

Regarding the source of heat.

Mo Fan's thoughts remained the same as when he dealt with the Fire Spirit Stones.

The description of this item is very clear—it's used for fire-attribute pets to enhance their primal power.

The only fire-type pet he has is the Fire Dance Dragon, so there's nothing to worry about.

As the source of heat approaches the Fire Dance Dragon.

The next second, the gentle fireball seemed to have found its home and suddenly disappeared into the Fire Dance Dragon's body.

Fire Dragon shuddered, and a layer of pale golden firelight shimmered on its scales.

The light was not dazzling, but it was extremely penetrating, seeping out from the gaps in the scales, making the Fire Dance Dragon's entire body look as if it were plated with a layer of gold.

Immediately afterwards, a series of prompts popped up on the panel.

[Fire Dragon absorbs the source of heat (small), level up!]

[Level: 17 → 20!]
