"It's hot! It's hot!"

Suddenly, Ayan floated up from the steaming pool and accidentally drank a few mouthfuls of hot water.

Ayan found that the hot water in his mouth had a bitter taste, which almost made him vomit a few mouthfuls.

Fortunately, the pool was not too deep, just up to his neck.

Ayan smelled a pungent smell in the air.

"Chirp...chirp..."

At this time, Aka's cry was heard next to him.

"Aka? Where are you?" Ayan called anxiously.

Aka couldn't stand the temperature of this pool at all, so he jumped out of the pool quickly.

Ayan looked around carefully and found that he was in a red fluorescent pool, with a few Aka feathers floating on the water.

The dim surroundings were illuminated by this red fluorescent light, and some things could be seen clearly.

Ayan saw Aka standing by the pool, shaking his feathers, probably trying to quickly shake off all the water on the feathers.

At this time, Ayan in the pool felt like he was about to be cooked.

Aka and Ayan had just rolled all the way and rolled into the fluorescent pool on the platform.

They fell very fast, but fell into the pool and were not injured.

It may be that the cushioning of Aka's feathers and the buoyancy of Aka's body offset the impact of the fall.

Zizi and Sakai had chased all the way and were now running down this winding hill.

Sakai rushed down first and saw Ayan in the pool.

"Ayan, how are you? Are you injured?"

Ayan checked himself and then looked at Aka who was still combing his feathers.

"Sakai, it shouldn't happen. It's just that the water is a bit hot."

Sakai looked around and found that there were many large and small hot water pools on this platform that were glowing with red fluorescence.

After a while, Zizi also ran to the platform and came to Sakai's side.

"You brat, I'm exhausted. Why don't you come down and take a bath first?"

Zizi complained breathlessly.

Ayan splashed twice in the red fluorescent pool, seeming to be very happy.

"Zi Zi, you think it's really strange! After I scalded myself in this water, the wounds on my hands and neck just now don't hurt anymore!"

Zizi was a little unbelievable and asked: "Nonsense, how is it possible? What smells so bad here?"

Ayan smiled innocently and said: "Maybe it's the smell of water! Really, isn't this the Eternal Fountain?"

Zizi sneered, "If this is the Fountain of Eternity, then you want to say that the seal will be released after you take a bath, and then the Eternal Tears will be your bath water?"

"This..." Ayan was suddenly speechless.

Sakai glanced at Zizi, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Ayan, no matter what, come out quickly! I feel a little strange here!"

Ayan is still soaking. It doesn't feel as hot as before. Maybe he has adapted to the temperature.

"Zizi, Sakai, why don't you try some bubbles? It's very comfortable!"

Zizi curled her lips and said, "I'm not in the mood. Come out as soon as you're done!"

Sakai was interested in other things and jumped directly into the hot water pool.

"Okay, then I'll try it!"

"Cough...cough...then you go clubbing. If I can't stand you, I'll go see if there are any roads around."

Zizi coughed twice, covered his nose and hid at the edge of the platform, then raised his head and looked around.

After a while, Ayan and Sakai felt that they were almost soaked, so they climbed out of the hot pool.

After coming out, Ayan always felt itchy on his body.

At this time, Zizi not far away shouted.

"Hey! Why are you two glowing with red fluorescence?"

Ayan looked down and found some slugs with fiery red fluorescence crawling on his body.

"Ah! What the hell is this!"

They quickly removed the slugs from their bodies.

Ayan checked his skin. There were no injuries or any abnormalities. It seemed that those fiery red fluorescent slugs were not dangerous.

Ayan looked around carefully and found that the bottoms of the large and small steaming pools nearby were filled with fiery red slugs.

It turns out that the water itself is transparent, but it becomes colored when illuminated by the fiery red fluorescence emitted by these slugs.

"Chirp~chirp~"

Aka next to him saw those slugs, first looked at them, then smelled them, and then ate two of them with his small pointed beak.

Looking at Aka's expression, he seemed very happy. The slug should not be poisonous, and it seemed to taste pretty good.

Ayan looked at the large and small pools of red fluorescence all around.

"Wow, Zizi, Sakai, do you think this place is beautiful?"

Sakai had already dried his body, "It's beautiful, and this hot spring is very effective. I feel that the dark energy in my body has stabilized a lot."

Ayan asked doubtfully, "Sakai, is this a hot spring?"

"Well, although this platform is not at the bottom of the canyon, there should be a heat source nearby."

Zizi walked up to the two of them, "I took a look just now. It should be at the foot of the mountain not far above. We have to find a way to get up."

Sakai nodded, "Yes, I saw it too! But I think it's getting dark. Do you want to go up now?"

He asked in confusion: "Sakai, what do you mean?"

Sakai explained: "Why don't we rest here for a night and go up tomorrow? The foot of the mountain above is a desert. It will be very cold and dangerous at night. At least we are warm here now and can wait until tomorrow morning before leaving."

Ayan heard that it made sense, "Yes, Sakai is right, it seems quite safe here."

Zizi glanced around and thought for a moment, "Okay then, let's rest here for the night."

Later, they found a flat and wide stone to rest and eat, while admiring the fluorescent hot spring.

At this time, Aka had eaten something and fell asleep on the ground.

Ayan stared at the fluorescent pools in a daze: "If only this were the Fountain of Eternity! How beautiful!"

At this time, Zizi suddenly asked curiously: "Sakai, is it true that your tribe did not smuggle dark water?"

Ayan's expression became nervous when he heard Zizi ask about this, and he was worried that the two people next to him were going to quarrel again.

Sakai smiled faintly and replied calmly: "Yes, Zizi, our Sa clan really did not smuggle the water of darkness."

Zizi frowned, "I heard about the smuggling of Youla people before. Who are those people?"

Sakai sighed and replied: "That is about another tribe in Youla Continent, called the Ga clan. Their ambitions have always been great."

"The Ga clan?"

"Yes, although our Sa clan and Ga clan are not hostile, they have occupied most of the Youla continent, plundered most of the dark water under the glaciers, and smuggled this dark water into Elf Continent.”

"Then your Sa clan is willing to do this without resisting or stopping it?"

"The Sa clan has been blocking it, especially at sea. And we have resisted, but the Sa clan is too weak. Later, many clan members were unwilling to participate in this kind of struggle."

"So how is your tribe doing now?"

"If it weren't for the current plague, we could barely survive. Now our tribesmen all live in a village in Youla Continent, while another part of the tribe lives on the sea. They travel to various places and make a living by selling general commodities. born."

After listening, Zi Zi seemed a little apologetic and continued to ask in a low voice.

"So that's it. Then I misunderstood you. Do you know the specific situation of the Ga clan's smuggling of dark water? I want to know more."

Sakai immediately replied: "Same as the adulterated temple magic crystal we obtained before, it was smuggled through Xia Peng, the Sheriff of Nevesk City, as an intermediary liaison. I think they should be the same."

When Ayan next to him heard this, he asked in panic: "Xia Peng? He's the big bad guy who put me in an underground prison!"

Sakai said sternly: "Yes, Xia Peng is not a good person, and there should be some demon spirit clan organization behind him."

Ayan said in surprise: "There is also an organization of the Demon Spirit Clan?"

Sakai recalled for a while and said slowly: "Well, before, my eldest and second brothers and I asked Xia Peng to trade the magic crystals of the temple. We also discovered that Xia Peng had contact with a group of people from the Demon Spirit Clan, and Xia Peng It’s those temple magic crystals obtained through them.”

Ayan turned his head and looked at Zizi, "Ah! Zizi, do you know the identities of the demon spirit tribesmen that Xia Peng contacted?"

Zizi thoughtfully replied hesitantly: "Let me think about it, could it be the secret Dark Spirit Church of the Demon Spirit Tribe..."

Sakai was startled, "Dark Spirit Church? I think I heard this from Chief Sado."

Suddenly, Zizi choked up a little, seemed to be lost in memories, and replied sadly.

"Well, I heard my father say it before. The Dark Spirit Church is a secret underground organization of the Demon Spirit Tribe. It is always secretly opposed to the Royal Knights."

Sakai was surprised, "Oh? Then what do they want to do?"

Zizi looked a little confused and a little nervous, "The Dark Spirit Church may want to obtain the Dark Water, and then use the dark energy to seize the throne and rights of the Demon Spirit Clan."

Sakai suddenly understood and immediately explained: "That's it, this should be right. The Ga clan in Youla Continent and the Dark Spirit Church of your Demon Spirit clan must be planning some conspiracy secretly, and Xia Peng is The liaison between them.”

Ayan suddenly felt at a loss as he listened to the conversation between the two.

It turns out that there are still these things behind Xia Peng...

What about the secret laboratory in the underground prison and Xiao Yi's investigation?

Ayan couldn't help but ask: "What is Xia Peng's purpose in doing these things?"

Sakai replied: "That's not clear. We have only met Xia Peng once or twice."

Zizi next to him replied coldly with a contemptuous tone.

"Now there is no city lord in Nevisk City, and Xia Peng is just the peace officer. Maybe Xia Peng wants to collude with the Dark Spirit Church and overthrow the current royal family of the Demon Spirit Tribe. Then he can become the city lord!"

Ayan blinked and asked curiously: "So there is no city owner in Nevesk City now? Is it because of King Longzeka?"

Zizi nodded: "Yes, because the residents in the city are only willing to accept King Longzeka as the lord of the city. As long as King Longzeka is still alive, even if he is sealed underground, Xia Peng will only be a peace officer."

Ayan asked: "Is it true that no one can lift King Longzeka's curse?"

Zizi shook his head: "Then I don't know. If it could be lifted, someone must have lifted it long ago...Uncle Feng Ke will not stay in the oasis for so long."

"Ah? Did Uncle Feng Ke stay in the oasis because of King Longzeka's curse?"

Zizi looked a little frustrated and replied sadly: "Yes, Uncle Feng Ke has been trying to find a way to lift the curse and liberate the demon spirits in Nevsk City so that they can return to their hometown as soon as possible."

"So that's it...it's been more than twenty years..."

Ayan thought for a moment, feeling a little lost.

Suddenly I remembered the tragic story of the huge war that Uncle Fengke told before...

Although he had just soaked in a scalding hot spring, Ayan felt a biting chill that he had never experienced before.
