My place is on fire

Boom, boom, boom~
From a distance, Lori saw that the volcano on the island was still erupting.

The sky above the island has been turned black by the thick smoke coming out of the crater.

"It's still spraying, it's long lasting enough..."

"How long will this spray last?"

With a helpless sigh, Lori lowered her flying altitude and landed on the coastline near the shore and began to look for heating stones.

The volcanic eruption caused a huge fire in the jungle on the island, and all the animals ran to the coastline.

When these animals were fleeing in panic, they had no time to fight or kill each other.

Now temporarily out of danger, the coastline suddenly became a battlefield of life and death, with a brutal life and death struggle between different species.

The law of the jungle was vividly demonstrated at this moment.

While picking up the heating stones, Lori would also deal with several beasts that attacked her.

After seeing how powerful she was, no one dared to provoke her anymore and they all stayed away from her.

After picking up enough heating stones, Lori glanced at the still erupting volcano, then turned around and continued to hunt those lightning blue sharks in the sea.

Now she has mastered the method of easily hunting lightning blue sharks, which is faster than killing these ferocious beasts on the island to gain points.

……

In the far north of the Planet of the Apes is an endless snowfield, a world of ice and snow.

Zhao Rui has been walking here for several months, and it seems like she is walking in circles. The surrounding scenery has not changed at all and is still all white.

"Xiaobai, come here quickly. Don't run too far. Be careful not to run into a big monster~"

Zhao Rui put her hand on the left side to make a trumpet shape and shouted loudly towards the front.

Xiaobai is a small pet hatched from an ice bear pet egg that Zhao Rui had obtained before.

With Xiaobai as her companion, Zhao Rui finally had someone to talk to, and her life was not as boring as before.

After a long while, a snow-white, plump ice bear that looked like a kitten came running to her side, holding a crystal clear white flower in its mouth.

"Wow! You found another snow lotus! Xiaobai, you are awesome!"

When Zhao Rui saw the white flower in Xiaobai's mouth, she excitedly picked it up from the ground and held it high.

Ouch ouch~
Xiaobai seemed to be trying to take credit from Zhao Rui. He cried softly a few times with a very proud expression on his face.

"Yes, yes, our Xiaobai is the best~ I'll give you some meat~"

After Zhao Rui put Xiaobai on the ground, she took the snow lotus out of its mouth, then found a piece of roasted snow wolf meat from her backpack, cut a large piece with a dagger and fed it to Xiaobai.

When Xiaobai saw the snow wolf meat, his mouth was watering. He pressed the piece of meat with his front paws and started to eat it with big mouthfuls.

After rewarding Xiaobai, Zhao Rui thought about it, and the page of the points mall popped up automatically and appeared in front of her.

[Do you want to exchange Snow Lotus for 1000 mall points? ]

"Yes!"

Zhao Rui exchanged the snow lotus for points without any hesitation.

She knew very limited about the effects of snow lotus, and only knew that it could increase her resistance to cold after taking it.

Xiaobai soaked the first snow lotus she found in water and drank it. Afterwards, she felt that her cold resistance had increased a lot.

Even in such a snowy and icy place, she didn't feel any cold. The bone-chilling wind turned into a spring breeze like on Earth.

However, the effects of snow lotus cannot be superimposed. Even if you take more snow lotus, it will be no different from taking just one.

By chance, Zhao Rui discovered that she could sell snow lotus to the mall in exchange for points, and a lot of points.

After comprehensive consideration, Zhao Rui kept four flowers to give to her master and three other sisters, and exchanged the rest for mall points.

1000 points for one snow lotus is not a small amount!

Before, Zhao Rui only got 10 points for killing an ice bear, but one snow lotus is equivalent to killing 100 ice bears!
It has been less than a month since Xiaobai was hatched, and it has already helped Zhao Rui find 12 snow lilies, which is more points than Zhao Rui earned by killing monsters herself. It has become Zhao Rui's right-hand man.

[Your current points have reached 20340 points. Do you want to spend 20000 points to refresh the items sold in the Points Mall? ]

"Finally saved up 2 points, refresh!"

Without any hesitation, Zhao Rui immediately chose to refresh the product.

She has already purchased all 10 items that were refreshed in the points mall for the first time. If she wants to continue to improve herself and become stronger, she has to refresh the products in the mall.

[Points have been deducted, the product is being refreshed, please wait...]

After the points were successfully deducted, about ten seconds later, the products in the points mall were refreshed successfully, and ten new products appeared on the product page.

"Animal Movement Fruit, increase your animal movement by 100 points, requires 5000 points."

"Physical Fitness Fruit, increase physical fitness by 100 points, requires 5000 points."

"Holy Healing Technique, to heal injuries, requires 2 points..."

"Ice Blade, requires 2 points..."

"Thermal Vision...8 points!"

“They are all so expensive…”

The cheapest item in the first round is only 1000 points, and the most expensive one is only 2 points.

The cheapest item in the second round costs 5000 points, and the most expensive thermal vision costs 8 points!
"To redeem all of them, I need tens of thousands of points. Oh my god... when will I be able to accumulate so many points? It would be great if I can complete it in my lifetime!"

Seeing the refreshed product prices, Zhao Rui sat down on the snow, feeling overwhelmed!
Ouch~
When Xiaobai saw that his owner seemed unhappy, he no longer cared about eating the meat. He trotted to Zhao Rui and rubbed his head against her legs.

"Luckily I have you, Xiaobai~ You are a great help to me now~"

Zhao Rui touched Xiaobai's head, and the frustration in her heart instantly lessened. Hadn't she come here alone before and redeemed all the items on the first page?

After redeeming the items on the first page, my strength has increased a lot. Now I have a capable partner like Xiaobai, so it is only a matter of time before I accumulate enough points!
"Work hard, strive hard~ Maybe Master and Senior Sister are also working hard in their own areas."

Looking up at the sky, Zhao Rui began to miss her master and several fellow sisters.

It has been almost half a year since everyone arrived on the Planet of the Apes, and there is still no news from each other.

"We will definitely meet again one day!"

Zhao Rui murmured softly, full of confidence in the future reunion.

Ouch~
Suddenly, Xiaobai beside her let out an anxious cry. After spending more than a month with Xiaobai, Zhao Rui knew that it was warning her that an enemy was approaching.

Suddenly turning around and looking in the direction of Xiaobai's warning, Zhao Rui saw a suspended piece of ice moving rapidly towards herself and Xiaobai.

When seeing this scene, Zhao Rui thought she was dazzled and saw it wrong. She rubbed her eyes hard and looked again, and it was the same scene she saw before!
The length of the ice block was about 1.7 meters and 50 centimeters wide, and it looked about the same size as an adult.

What's even more bizarre is that this block of ice has no hands or feet, but it can float in the air and move quickly.

At the "head" of the ice cube, there is a terrifying ghost face that looks pitch black, as if it is frozen inside.

"What kind of monster is this..."

Zhao Rui has seen and killed many kinds of monsters on the ice field, such as ice bears, ice foxes, ice wolves and so on.

It was the first time she had seen such an abstract monster. It was truly beyond human imagination.

Violent!
When the Ice and Snow Demon was about ten meters away from Zhao Rui, it suddenly let out a sharp scream, and an ice arrow shot out from the position of the ghost face.

Swish!
Zhao Rui dodged to the side and avoided the first attack of the ice and snow demon. Before she could stand firm, the second ice arrow whizzed towards her.

clang!
Zhao Rui swung the machete in her hand, and with a buzzing sound, the ice arrow was chopped off its position, and with a bang, it shot onto the snow next to it.

"What a powerful force..."

Zhao Rui's hand holding the machete was shaken back, and she also felt the force of the ice arrow.

This ice arrow can definitely penetrate my body easily!
Whoosh whoosh!
While Zhao Rui was stunned, three more ice arrows whizzed towards her!

The three ice arrows were aimed at her face, chest and abdomen respectively, which was extremely insidious!

The moment Zhao Rui jumped to the left to avoid, three ice arrows suddenly appeared on the left and went straight to her vital parts!
"What a fast attack speed!"

In just over one second, six ice arrows were shot in different directions. The attack speed of this ice and snow demon was really beyond Zhao Rui's imagination.

Dangdang Dangdang!
After blocking three ice arrows in a row, Zhao Rui felt her arms were numb from the shock.

"Damn it! I can't keep passively taking a beating like this!"

Zhao Rui gritted her teeth and rushed towards the Ice and Snow Demon!

Swish! Although the Ice Demon had no legs, it moved very quickly. When Zhao Rui approached it, it instantly moved back another ten meters, widening the distance between them again.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh--!

After gaining some distance, the Ice Demon opened its mouth and three ice arrows shot out from its face.

"Damn! What a fast speed!"

Zhao Rui’s first attempt was almost a failure, and she could only continue to passively take the beating, barely dodging the ice arrows of the Ice Demon.

Ouch~
Xiaobai is still in its infancy. Its ability in finding treasures is unquestionable, but its fighting ability is still far from enough.

It could not help at all in the battle between Zhao Rui and the Ice and Snow Demon and could only watch anxiously from the sidelines.

Ouch~
Xiaobai looked at Zhao Rui anxiously as she was always at a disadvantage in the battle with the Ice and Snow Demon, with a worried look on her face.

Then, as if it had made up its mind, it turned around and ran away on its short legs.

"Xiaobai~"

Zhao Rui called out to Xiaobai anxiously. She was not worried that Xiaobai would leave her and run away, but she was worried that it would run too far and get into danger.

At the moment, she was concentrating all her efforts on dealing with the ice demon, and she had no time to call out, but had no time to chase after it.

Ouch~
Xiaobai came to his senses and yelled at Zhao Rui twice. At that moment, as if they had telepathic connection, Zhao Rui suddenly understood what Xiaobai meant.

It wants to find more snow lotuses to exchange for points, and then exchange them for more powerful skills!
"Xiaobai~"

At this moment, Zhao Rui was touched by Xiaobai. Although she had only been with Xiaobai for about a month, she already regarded Xiaobai as her partner and even a relative.

After saying goodbye to Zhao Rui, Xiaobai turned around and ran away, wanting to find more snow lotus for his master as soon as possible. He didn't want his master to be hurt by that ugly ice cube.

Since Xiaobai was not present, Zhao Rui did not have to worry about affecting it and was more relaxed during the fight.

In terms of overall strength, her strength is still slightly higher than that of the Ice and Snow Demon, but her body movements are not as fast as those of the Ice and Snow Demon.

After a fierce fight that lasted nearly an hour, Zhao Rui finally seized an opportunity and chopped the extremely ugly face of the ice demon covered under the ice.

Click, click, click—!

After a noise, the ice and snow demon shattered into pieces like a broken vase and fell to the ground.

[You killed an ordinary ice demon and received 12 points. Please keep up the good work! ]

"Ice Demon? Is this just an ordinary Ice Demon? Oh my god... If I run into an elite or a boss, I'm done for!"

After seeing the prompt on the information page, Zhao Rui suddenly became nervous.

If an ordinary ice and snow demon is so difficult to deal with, an elite that is more powerful than it must be even more difficult!

Violent~
Before she could even catch her breath, another ice and snow demon appeared beside Zhao Rui like a ghost.

The mouth on the Ice and Snow Demon's ghost face opened, and three ice arrows shot out instantly!

Swish!
Zhao Rui rolled to the side to avoid the attack of the ice arrows, and three ice arrows poke the ground next to her.

"You don't even let us rest, you're just fighting in a round-robin battle, right? You guys are too unsportsmanlike!"

Zhao Rui snorted, picked up the machete in her hand and started to counterattack.

The two sides fought back and forth, attacking and defending each other, but in the end Zhao Rui was more skilled and defeated the Ice and Snow Demon in more than fifty minutes.

Compared to the more than one hour it took to kill the first ice demon, this time the speed was much faster, and the killing time was pushed down to within an hour.

As the battles increased, Zhao Rui gained a certain understanding of the Ice and Snow Demon's attack and avoidance methods, and it became easier and easier.

Soon, the third ice and snow demon appeared again, and Zhao Rui spent more than fifty minutes to kill it, which was only a dozen seconds faster than the second one.

"With my current strength, it seems that I have reached the limit. It is difficult to speed up further, unless..."

Zhao Rui immediately thought of the agility fruit in the points mall. She only needed to exchange for an agility fruit and eat it, and she could increase her agility by 100 points.

With these 100 points of agility added, my movement speed can even surpass that of the Ice Demon. Then it will not be so easy for it to dodge. I can easily catch up with it and kill it!
By then, my efficiency in killing monsters will definitely be raised to a higher level, and it won't be as difficult as it is now.

Points, everything starts with points.

For me, getting more points and exchanging them for more powerful skills is the fastest way to improve myself. (End of this chapter)
