I Can’t Play This Game Anymore

Ji Han looked in the direction pointed by Chen Ke, but there was only darkness over there.

"Can't your sonic detector detect what's going on over there?"

"The distance is too far to be measured. It should be a large space."

So Ji Han took out a lighting arrow and fired it in the air in that direction.

This time everyone saw the illuminating arrow fly far away, and it finally exploded when it started to fall. With a blast, the dazzling white light finally shot out.

However, what is surprising is that the white light did not illuminate all the darkness in front of them. Ji Han and the others could only see an area close to the lighting arrow, which shows how large this space is.

There seemed to be a large dry forest below the slope, with a stone road among the mottled black shadows.

A city can be vaguely seen in the farther place where the white light shines, but the distance is still a bit far away, and only an outline can be vaguely seen.

Eggplant exclaimed:

"Fuck, this place is too big."

Ji Han pointed at the city in the darkness in the distance:

"That should be the destination. It seems that the flames from thousands of years ago in the Pre-Qin Nine Star Mirror have been extinguished. This is good news. I'm really afraid that we will become a barbecue."

Song Qian nodded and said:

"Just go through the woods ahead, but I didn't expect there to be woods so deep."

Ji Han also gave up on continuing to study Blackstone Mountain and human amber. After all, the purpose of this trip was to complete the task and collect points to resurrect Captain Cui Feng.

But from the moment he knew this was not a game, Ji Han was really curious about all the unknowns along the way.

The four of them walked along the slope to the stone road. It was said to be a stone road, but it was paved with some stones and could barely be seen as a road.

But compared to the places near the sacred pillar that several people have visited before, this is already considered a very good infrastructure construction.

It's just that the surrounding trees are very uncomfortable. The trees are not particularly dense and are completely black. At first, Ji Han thought it was because of the poor lighting, but when he walked in, he realized that the trees seemed to be the same color.

It was like a fire that had burned away all the leaves and twigs on the trees.

Chen Ke also felt strange and asked:

"Could it be that the fire here directly carbonized the forest?"

The butt of Eggplant's gun was smashed, but the black tree was only shaken a few times by the smash. It seemed to be somewhat resilient and did not break like carbonized things.

"No, this is what the tree should look like."

Ji Han subconsciously scanned, but he didn't expect that specific information was actually displayed:

Endless wood

It grows on underground magma veins. When the temperature rises or the magma can ignite, it grows as it burns. It is completely black and becomes bigger and bigger as it burns. It is endless.

"This thing is called endless wood. It grows on the veins of magma. We are really in the right place. Please be careful. We may not be very far from the volcanic magma."

"No, Brother Ji, you know this too. I suspect you recite the Encyclopedia every day."

Eggplant smiled and said:

"With his reading and reciting speed, doesn't he just need to recite it once?"

Everyone was surprised at first, but when they thought that Ji Han could remember the contents of the book by quickly flipping through it, they all felt that his knowledge was nothing.

After Eggplant's reminder, Ji Han also thought that if this was not a game, then his quantum wave reading method could also be used in the real world.

It seems good to go back and read hundreds of more books, and then become a naturalist. However, once you exit the game, the memory will be erased, and these things will naturally be gone.

Wouldn't it be like trying to draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain?

After walking along the stone road for a while, everyone gradually became accustomed to these strange black trees with different shapes.

But something strange soon appeared in the black shadow: a fiery red thing suddenly sprang out from the road ahead, sliding to the right side of the road almost instantly, leaving only a long fire-like trace in the air.

"I'll go, what is it?"

None of the four people saw it clearly, and immediately became vigilant. They slowly walked over to check, and saw that there was really a faint black mark on the place name just now.

Ji Han said curiously:

"Even will-o'-the-wisps can't be that fast, right? Didn't you see it clearly just now?"

All three shook their heads.

"Be careful, the woods don't seem to be peaceful."

Before he could move forward, Chen Ke shouted:

"Over there, it appears again!"

When the four of them looked towards the place pointed by Chen Ke, there was only a red light left in the endless woods in the distance.

Eggplant picked up the gun and said:

"Fuck, this is forcing me to play instant sniper."

Ji Han waved his hand and said:

"Your Destroyer is too powerful. You haven't figured out what it is yet, so don't do it easily yet."

At this time, Song Qian, who was walking at the front, suddenly whispered:

"Shh, look, there's something in front of you."

There seemed to be a small animal in the middle of the stone road ahead. No one dared to move rashly. After a while, the little thing slowly crawled over.

It turned out to be a fat mouse, an arm long, with a white body, looking a bit like a white fox.

The thing didn't seem to be afraid of people, and was a little interested in the four people's flashlights, and slowly crawled towards the four people.

Seeing that it was just a white mouse, Ji Han breathed a sigh of relief and joked in a low voice:

"At such a deep place, the rats are quite fat."

When Eggplant saw that it was just a big white mouse and not the weird red light he had just seen, he wanted to drive the thing away.

But just as he raised his gun to drive away, the big white rat suddenly stood up with its hair as if it was frightened.

When the mouse stood up all over its body, its white fur caught fire like magic, and its body instantly turned red.

This sudden change shocked the four of them. The rat, whose body was on fire, bared its teeth at the four of them.

Then he immediately ran behind Bu Chuenmu on the side, his speed was extremely fast, and he was completely different from when he had just crawled up slowly.

Seeing the familiar red light and traces, the four people immediately understood that this was what they had just seen.

Before Ji Han and the others could figure out how to deal with it, the thing flew over like it was flying against the ground. It seemed to hold a grudge, skipping Song Qian in front, and headed directly towards Eggplant.

Everyone was too close and Eggplant didn't dare to shoot. Just as he took out his dagger, the fire rat was already at his legs.

Because he was afraid of being bitten, Eggplant kicked him in a panic, but he didn't expect that the kick actually hit him, and the Fire Rat was really kicked out by him.

However, the trousers that touched the Fire Rat's body started to burn with a "whoosh" sound.

I don’t know if there was something that ignited it, but I patted the eggplant several times but it didn’t put out the flames.

It wasn't until Chen Ke took out the kettle and poured water out that the flames were extinguished.

After being kicked away, the fire rat didn't seem ready to give up. After rolling a few times, he ran over and jumped towards the eggplant.

It seems that today I have to turn the eggplant into roasted eggplant.

But after leaving the ground and jumping into the air, the fire rat was not that fast. Song Qian threw out the lock chain and grabbed it, and threw the fire rat to the ground with her backhand, sparking a burst of fire.
