Arknights is too real, right?

Ceria could tell that Xia Feng was not trying to show off, but was mentally prepared to face the worst case scenario.

To be honest, even she is not 100% sure of rescuing Ifrit. If she fails, not only will she be burned to death, but Ifrit will also miss the best rescue opportunity.

Ceria nodded solemnly.

"Okay, then please go in and rescue Ifrit. I will send you nearby. My abilities should be able to help you resolve some troubles."

"kindness."

Seria picked up a large metal can from a nearby transport truck.

Xia Feng took off the bracelet and threw it to Hemo who was kneeling on the ground.

"Keep it for me first. I will come back with Ifrit later. Remember to return it to me."

After saying that, Xia Feng and Seria ran toward the sea of ​​fire ahead.

As the distance grew closer, the temperature gradually became unbearable.

The heat wave from the flames swept over, and all the surrounding vegetation was reduced to charcoal.

After walking less than a hundred meters, Ceria stopped, and then opened the tank in her hand.

"Wow!"

Ceria raised the jar and poured the light green liquid inside on Xia Feng's head.

This liquid has a high viscosity and adheres to Xia Feng's skin like bubble gum. You don't need to ask to know that it is a chemical substance that can insulate flames.

Ceria threw away the metal can and looked forward.

"Ifrit's location is in the underground laboratory, but the impact of the fire explosion has destroyed the base, so her current location cannot be determined. You can only find it yourself."

"good."

"Next, I will use the Origin Stone skills to help you separate the flames. You can only use this short opportunity to rush in, and then you can only rely on yourself."

After saying that, Ceria took out an Origin Stone from her arms.

Ceria closed her eyes, a light green light emerged around her body, and the energy of an entire Origin Stone was instantly absorbed by her. Soon, an invisible breeze began to swirl around her.

In the eye of the wind, Ceria suddenly opened her eyes, and the breeze around her instantly became wild. She put her hands together and raised them above her head. Following her movements, a tornado rose into the sky.

Flying sand and rocks make the sky and earth change colors.

Xia Feng leaned down, sighing at the power of Ceria's Origin Stone skills, while holding the ground firmly with his hands so as not to be blown away by the strong wind.

If this ability were used in war, Seria would probably be as destructive as Shuangyue's ice spells, which would destroy the world.

In the storm, Ceria's eyes flashed with light.

The hands raised above his head slashed down toward the sea of ​​fire in front of him.

"boom!"

In an instant, the green tornado started from Ceria and rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire with the momentum of tearing apart everything.

The outer flames were broken by the storm, and the flames were torn out of a channel by the high-speed rotating wind.

Ceria looked at Xia Feng beside her.

"This passage won't last long, now is the time!"

"good!"

"Promise me that you will come back alive."

"Hmph, I bloom in the midst of killing, too."

"hurry up."

"oh."

Xia Feng quickly got up from the ground.

Biting his lip, black power immediately emerged from his body under the stimulation of pain.

Afterwards, he held an Origin Stone in one hand and firmly grasped the injection gun that Ceria gave him with the other hand.

"Let's go!"

Taking a step forward, Xia Feng rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire along the passage that Ceria opened for him.

Looking at Xia Feng's back, Ceria could only silently pray for him in her heart. As a non-infected person, she could only use her body to launch an Originium skill of this scale without any auxiliary tools, and the backlash of energy had already caused her to suffer. She became very powerless.

Rushing into the sea of ​​​​fire, the high temperature that struck instantly made Xia Feng feel dazed. This was no longer as simple as pain and burning.

Inside the flame, all the oxygen in the air had been consumed. The strong sense of suffocation made Xia Feng feel a ringing in his ears. With Celia's help, the flames that were separated at this moment did not touch his body. However, the clothes on his body It has started to burn.

Due to time constraints, he didn't think too much at all. Now that he really entered the boundless sea of ​​fire, the instinctive fear of human beings immediately hit his heart. He wanted to save Ifrit and he was scared now. This was not contradiction.

Being killed by a falling meteorite in a natural disaster is only a moment of pain.

But being burned alive in the flames, to be honest, this kind of inner and physical torture is even more terrifying.

But there is no way, this is his own choice.

[I bloom in the midst of killing, and I am reborn in the flames]

The first half of this line was copied, and the second half was improvised.

According to the current situation, he didn't know whether he would be reborn, but it was definitely about to bloom. Now the clothes on his body were starting to burst into flames like flowers.

The gap in the flames has not yet closed, and he still has a chance to turn around and run back, but if he really runs away because of regrets, to be honest, thinking about seeing Hemo's disappointed expression, he will probably feel more uncomfortable than death.

Huo Yu Xia Feng will not regret it. Now that he has spoken out his words, even if he dies, he will have to pretend this completely.

"Come on!"

Gritting his teeth, Xia Feng roared and rushed into the center of the sea of ​​fire.

over time.

In the blazing flames, Xia Feng no longer knew how long he had been searching.

No sound could be heard in his ears, his vision became blurry, and the burnt clothes on his body were stuck to his skin.

The pain of being burned by the flames was unbearable, but as time passed, the heart-wrenching pain all over his body gradually became numb. During the process of running, his pain nerves had been burned and his body had lost consciousness.

If he were a normal person, he would no longer be able to control his body. However, Xia Feng held the Origin Stone firmly in his hands. With his body unable to move, his movements could only rely on the black power.

For some reason, he did not turn to ashes in the flames. Perhaps the power of the black and white twins had a restraining effect on the flames of the Balrog. He had no way of knowing now.

However, even if he was not dead, he was already on the verge of death.

Xia Feng didn't know what he had become now. He thought he had turned into a moving charcoal.

His hair was definitely lost, and that handsome face that he was so proud of was probably beyond recognition. There was no way any skin on his body was intact.

But even so, he still did not fall.

He didn't want to think about this now. The only motivation to support his running was to find Ifrit.

The vast flames were mixed with anger and sadness.

The flame of the Balrog can burn everything in the world, and it also represents the deepest loneliness in the world. Whether it is an enemy or a friend, a relative or a lover, all creatures that come close to it will be reduced to ashes.

Xia Feng didn't know the story behind the Balrog, but thinking about it, maybe "Ifrit"'s last wish before disappearing from this world was to truly hug the person it loved.

Xia Feng stopped and stood in the flames, staring blankly ahead.

His familiar figure appeared in his field of vision.

The invincible little fire dragon opened her arms and stood in the center of the flames. The sky-reaching flames were continuously sprayed out from her body.

She had her eyes closed, there was no wound on her body, and she seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Xia Feng dragged his charred body and walked towards Ifrit step by step with the syringe on the verge of melting.

The flames blew across his face like a violent wind, but he could no longer feel the pain.

Standing in front of Ifrit, at this moment he finally felt that his choice was not wrong and all the efforts were worth it.

"Zi!"

The syringe was inserted into Charmander's neck.

Surrounded by flames, Xia Feng opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
