An invincible journey starting from a different race

"whee……"

"Hmm..." Gan Qiu was halfway through laughing when he felt something was wrong and scratched his head, "Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Eighty-three, he also has two

The foursome begins to challenge the fountain!

Even though there were only four of them in the pool, it wasn't quiet; it was actually quite noisy. The entire pool was like a cauldron on fire; the bubbling sound of the water could be heard constantly, along with the occasional...

"Pfft."

Gan Qiu turned his head suddenly and glared at the person behind him.

Aesop, Stank, and Jer's expressions were normal. Instead, they were puzzled by Gan Qiu, who was walking in front and suddenly turned back. "What's wrong?"

Gan Qiu was silent for a while and then said, "Did you hear any strange noises?"

"No."

"There's a strange sound somewhere."

“It’s really quiet.”

The three of them answered like this.

Gan Qiu said "Oh" and continued walking forward. After taking only two steps, he heard a "puff" sound behind him.

He turned around again and glared again.

The expressions of the three people were no different from before.

"what happened?"

Ganqiu was silent for a while and said, "I did hear a strange sound."

"No."

"There's a strange sound somewhere."

“It’s really quiet.”

The three of them answered like this.

Gan Qiu said "Oh" again, and then continued to walk forward. Before he had taken two steps, he turned back.

The "puff" sound also happened to be heard.

"I caught you, I caught you!" Ganqiu pointed at Stank and Jer angrily, "It was you just now, you were the one who was laughing! You kept laughing and never stopped!"

Because Gan Qiu had used prediction on them this time, the two of them had not yet been able to control their expressions and both looked very uncomfortable, so they were caught by Gan Qiu.

"Ganqiu, you misunderstood." Stank said seriously, "Although I was laughing, it was because I was thinking of something happy, not because you only have one ball."

"Yeah." Jer nodded, agreeing with Stank. "You really misunderstood us. How could we possibly make fun of you for having only one testicle? Putting aside the fact that it's not funny in itself, you should trust our integrity. Would we exploit our brother's pain for fun?"

Gan Qiu half-closed his eyes: "Is it true?"

"of course it's true."

"That's absolutely true."

Stank and Jer made a solemn promise.

Gan Qiu nodded, said "Okay," and continued walking forward. After taking two steps, he suddenly remembered something and looked up and said, "I really want to know how people with two testicles live."

As soon as he finished speaking, Stank and Jer behind him burst into extremely wicked laughter at the same time, accompanied by the sound of their stomachs slapping the water because they laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.

Gan Qiu turned back angrily, this time he really couldn't stand it anymore: "Look, look! You guys are just laughing at me, you just keep laughing at me, you never stop at all! It's really hateful!"

As he said that, he started to attack with his teeth and claws bared, wanting to fight to the death.

However, because the water in the pool was so hot, walking slowly was no problem. However, once he moved too fast, he would feel a burning pain in his buttocks. This forced Gan Qiu to stop thinking about revenge and glared at the two people behind him: "Have you laughed enough? If not, you two will die!"

"Okay, okay Ganqiu, I was just joking with you just now."

"Yeah, yeah, I've laughed enough, really enough."

As if to prove that he had laughed enough, Stank couldn't help but burp.

This made Gan Qiu even more angry. He waved his fist and said, "This isn't an individual difference, this is a group difference. Do you understand? What's so funny about that?"

Stank didn't understand for a moment: "What individual, what group?"

Aesop promptly explained, "Ganqiu means that all halflings have only one testicle, not just him. So we're not laughing at him alone, but at the entire halfling community... Is that what you mean?"

Gan Qiu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, this is the racial difference... Ah, I think you can understand me."

"So we are laughing at all halflings, not just you. Why are you so anxious?"

"Stop talking, Stank! Let's fight, let's fight! I'm not fighting you because you laughed at me for only having one, but because I want to beat you to death, you damn racist!" Gan Qiu yelled, "You're racist, right? Just wait and see if I do it or not, and you're done."

"Okay, okay, that was the last joke, I promise!" Stank held up three fingers. "Now let's get down to business. So why do halflings only have one egg? Is it because they're halflings that they only have half the weight of a human's?"

"Can you please stop talking about this!" Gan Qiu pointed at Stank. "In our opinion, you guys with two testicles are the ones who are abnormal!"

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Jer stepped in to smooth things over. "Don't forget what we're here for. If we want to argue, we should go to Central and leave the pool. It's too exhausting to argue here."

Aesop nodded in agreement: "Indeed."

At the moment, the four of them were wearing Jer's heat-resistant BUFF, so they could walk in this pool. Otherwise, they really couldn't stay in it for too long, let alone walk.

But even so, walking in a pool of this temperature is very tiring, and it would be even more difficult to get out if there was a quarrel.

"I hope we're halfway there." Stank wiped the sweat from his forehead. "If we keep going any further, I can't even feel the soles of my feet anymore... Jer, can you give me a stronger buff?"

"There are stronger ones, but they can't be used here." Jer continued walking forward. "Don't forget what that guy told us before. This is only the first difficulty. If we can't even get through this, we won't be able to reach the underground. Just think of this as a test of willpower."

"Hell, my willpower doesn't even need any training. Just tell me where there's a powerful nightmare, and I'll go there even if it means I have to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire."

“So we are in a sea of fire now.”

Stank thought about it and felt that what he said seemed to make sense, so he stopped complaining and continued walking forward.

Aesop analyzed the composition of the spring water as he walked.

"This isn't an ordinary hot spring," Aesop said. "I just checked the water and found some magical energy remaining in it."

"Didn't that guy say that before?" Stank said, "He said that this water contains fire-attributed magic...but why is that?"

Aesop thought for a moment and replied, "There are two possibilities."

"Hmm? Which two?"

"The first is at the innermost part, underground, where there's a massive source of magic power," Aesop said. "The magic power from that source is brought out by this spring... If we can feel this magic power even at the outermost part, then taking into account the consumption along the way, the magic power inside is truly enormous. If this magic power is transferred to a human..."

Aesop calculated silently in his mind.

Perhaps only his teacher Abel possesses such a huge and magnificent magic power.

He couldn't do it anyway.

So there's another arcanist-level being at the bottom of the hot spring?

"What's wrong?" Stank asked Aesop, "Why don't you continue?"

Aesop thought about it, then shook his head and said, "It's unlikely that this is the magic power of a single individual. It's possible that this magic circle was carved thousands of years ago and has been maintained by people. It's accumulated over time, so it can also produce this amount."

"So why do we care about all this? I just want to know if the legendary nightmare is in there." Stank said while wiping the sweat off his face. "I can hardly walk anymore. Aesop, can you cast some morale-boosting magic?"

"I haven't mentioned the other possibility yet."

"I told you, I don't care about the other possibility at all..."

"There's still some magic left in this pool, so it's relatively new." Aesop ignored Stank's complaints and continued, "It's not as old as the previous ones, so..."

"So what?"

Aesop raised his head and looked into the distance.

"We are downstream," Aesop said. "There is a high probability that there are creatures with fire attributes washing themselves upstream. They are very likely women, and they are not wearing clothes."

Stank was shocked: "You can analyze this through magic?"

"No." Aesop shook his head. "I just used farsightedness magic. This is what I saw."

Stank, Jer, and Ganchu all opened their mouths wide at the same time.

Afterwards, the waist was no longer sore, the legs no longer hurt, and the heat was no longer felt. Endless passion erupted from everyone's body, and the legs moved more powerfully and quickly.

I’m here!

But when he was halfway there, Aesop suddenly stopped and let out a soft "Ah".

"What's wrong?" The other three also stopped, "Don't stop here!"

Aesop pointed to a board beside the hot spring pool and said, "Look, this is the halfway sign."

The three of them came over and found a wooden sign.

The sign read, "You've already reached halfway. As a race without fire attributes, it's already quite remarkable that you've made it this far. Keep going, I believe you can complete the journey!"

Stank was somewhat moved: "They are actually encouraging. The people at Volcano are really enthusiastic..."

Before he finished speaking, Jer read out the next sentence: "This is a feat worth commemorating. After completing this journey, you can go to the surrounding area to receive a warrior's badge! The price is only 998 gold coins!"

Stank: "..."

Damn, it turns out they sell souvenirs.

But I have to say that this wooden sign is quite well made, with portraits of adventurers carved on it who can walk here and are willing to spend money.

Although most of them were men without clothes, they looked quite interesting. The V gesture towards the camera moved everyone.

"Well, we've been inspired by our predecessors, it's time to move on!" Stank flexed his muscles, "The legendary nightmare is waiting for us up ahead!"

"Get started!"

The three continued to walk forward, but after a few steps they found that Aesop had not caught up. They turned around and saw Aesop still looking at the wooden sign in deep thought.

"What's wrong, Aesop, are you unable to walk?"

Aesop shook his head: "No, I just found a problem..."

"what is the problem."

"There's a halfling on this sign, too."

"Hehe, I saw it a long time ago." Gan Qiu put his hands on his hips and said with a little pride, "Don't underestimate us halflings. Even we are capable of accomplishing things that you can't do with our own abilities and will. Although we only have half a body, we will never lose to any race in this adventure!"

"I know, but that's not what I meant."

"So what are you trying to say?" Gan Qiu suddenly became alert. "You're not going to mock me by saying I only have one egg again, are you? Aesop, if you dare mention it again, I'll break up with you. You're being racist!"

Aesop shook his head and said, "You should come and take a look."

"What the hell is going on?"

The three of them walked over with suspicion, and then saw Aesop pointing at the portrait of the half-man on the wooden sign, mainly the lower body.

Then he spoke to Gan Qiu seriously.

"look."

"He has two too."

What's on the other side of the eighty-four walls!

Central, by the pond.

Amanda, who had been waiting here with Collim, had a blank expression on her face, showing no sign of joy at finally returning home.

Around the pool were a group of dragon ladies soaking in the hot springs, most of whom knew Amanda. After a brief moment of surprise, they all gathered around Amanda and kept pinching her cheeks.

"You're finally back, Amanda."

"Where have you been? Your sister is so worried about you."

"Yeah, yeah, it's been three months since you left, and your sister talks about you every month. Really."

"Did you really escape to the outside world? Did you really get out of the volcano? That's not okay, Amanda. The races out there are all very evil. If they see a little dragon like you, they will definitely pull out your tendons and skin you alive. It would be very cruel."

A group of charming dragon ladies started to educate Amanda crazily.

And Kelim on the side was very embarrassed.
