Chapter 92 A Trip to Relax and Unexpectedly Encounter the Dead Zone
"We'll only dare to drink if you take a sip."
As Hu Tao spoke, she handed the bowl to Ke Lai.
"It really isn't poisonous... Okay, I'll just take a sip and show you."
After saying that, she took the medicine and drank one-fifth of it in one gulp.
"Drinking this herbal medicine is such a wonderful thing~ You can drink it without worry."
As Ke Lai wiped his mouth, he sincerely returned the medicine to Hu Tao.
"Since Cole has said so, then I'll just do it!"
After saying that, Hu Tao wrapped his hands tightly around the rim of the bowl, then put them to his lips, tilted his head back, closed his eyes, and drank it all in one gulp.
The entire movement was fluid and seamless, executed in one go.
"Phew~ The taste isn't as bad as I imagined... It's refreshing with a hint of sweetness."
After finishing her drink, Hu Tao let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Ke Lai and Hu Tao had both drunk it, Ying, who was anxiously waiting, had no choice but to gulp down the medicine in one go.
"Hmm...it's not actually that bad."
"See? Cole never lies!"
Seeing the two of them looking relieved, Cole smiled happily.
"Colette, after you finish your medicine, can we go out and play? I promise we won't go far."
Hu Tao looked at Ke Lai eagerly, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Seeing the expectant look in Hu Tao's eyes, Ke Lai finally gave in.
"Hmm... okay, okay, but really don't go too far~"
"Hehe, I got it. We'll just play around within Huacheng Guo and get some fresh air."
Inside the abyss.
"Your Highness, we have brought back all the materials that Captain Frostfall requested."
The Purple Abyss Mage knelt humbly before the throne, earnestly reporting his findings.
"Okay, I understand. You need to speed up the construction of the facility as quickly as possible. Apart from the personnel on daily patrols, 80% of the other personnel must be involved in the construction. They should work two days and rest one day, then work five days and rest two days."
"Understood, Your Highness. I will convey your decree immediately."
"Go back."
After the Abyss Mage left, Kong dragged his powerless right hand, lost in thought.
"Why would the wind god Barbatos suddenly appear in the abyss?"
Earlier, when he struck Barbatos in the abdomen with the Chaos Fist, a devastating whirlwind instantly twisted and broke Kong's hand.
Fortunately, the air spun around a few times in the direction of the whirlwind, which slowed down the spinning effect.
Otherwise, the empty right hand might have been severed.
"Sigh... I never expected that even under the laws of the abyss, the Wind God, who was in a passive position, could still injure my arm. His strength is truly unfathomable..."
"If we don't speed up the construction of the facility, this plan that has been in preparation for many years will probably be ruined..."
Kong pondered for a moment, pursing his lips tightly.
"Little sister, how have you been lately...?"
Recalling the wonderful times spent with her sister, Sora unconsciously smiled, her face radiating happiness...
Meanwhile, Huacheng Guo.
"The rainforest of Mount Sumeru is truly lush with vegetation..."
Ying sighed as she took photos with the commemorative camera.
"Hehe, this is the first time I've ever seen such a spectacular plant. I have to take a picture and show it to Paimon."
Ying and Hu Tao's eyes lit up as they looked at the various towering trees and strange plants with distinctive regional characteristics.
Xunfeng, who was standing next to Hu Tao, looked around warily while holding Hu Tao's shoulder to prevent her from fainting.
Sensing Xunfeng's kindness, Hu Tao smiled gently.
"Oh dear, Xunfeng, I'm not that fragile! You don't need to support me!"
After saying that, Hu Tao immediately decided to perform a long jump to demonstrate her good health.
The next second, Hu Tao's foot landed on a banana leaf, and she stumbled and sat down on the ground, stunned.
"Ouch! This master has fallen and almost killed me!"
Hu Tao, feeling the pain, rubbed her tailbone in a wronged manner.
Seeing Hu Tao fall awkwardly, Xun Feng suppressed a laugh and quickly went over to help her up.
"Ahem, this was my mistake..."
Seeing Xun Feng's lips curl into an uncontrollable smile, Hu Tao awkwardly turned her head away.
"Xunfeng, you are not allowed to laugh at this hall master!"
"I wasn't laughing... I have a very high threshold for laughter... really, unless I can't help it... haha."
As he spoke, Xunfeng was amused by his own words.
"You still say you didn't laugh!"
In her anger, Hu Tao raised her fist, ready to teach him a lesson.
However, at that moment, Ying, who was walking at the front, shouted.
"There's a patch of dark red mud ahead!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao and Xun Feng immediately walked over to Ying's side.
The next second, a dead zone of several hundred square meters appeared in their field of vision.
However, since it was the first time they had ever seen something like this, they were unaware of the dangers of the Dead Zone.
So the three of them decided to find out what was going on.
However, just as Ying was about to approach and take pictures, two people dressed as forest rangers suddenly appeared not far away.
"Hey! Traveler over there, please stop! This area is dangerous, please do not approach!"
After noticing Ying's actions, one of the forest rangers hurriedly and loudly reminded her.
