Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster

"Goodbye, Candle Keeper."

After receiving the reward, Zhang Ming happily played with the small anchor in his hand and left.

Rogge also withdrew his gaze and returned to his room. He first used the power of the spirit candle to scan Sekasi's information to confirm that there was no problem before opening it.

After reading the information.

Roger frowned slightly.

This time, Sekasi also came to "collect firewood for the altar" to deliver a message to Candlelight.

The most important one is to warn him to be careful of the "ashes that tempt warriors to fall."

These "ominous ashes" are tempting every warrior, trying to lead them to the path of depravity, and the targets of temptation are mostly firewood gatherers.

The information delivered by the Altar Firewood also revealed an attitude, which is that it hopes that Candlelight will also stay away from these "ominous ashes" and not give them any chances.

"The ashes that tempt warriors to fall... Well, the firewood picking at the altar is probably referring to the 'Ashes Guide' that we met in the distance before..."

"But why would it attract the wood gatherers? And what is its connection with the gathering of wood at the altar?"

Roger pondered.

There must be some complicated connections between the Altar Firewood Collectors, the Fire Temple Firewood Collectors, and the Ash Leaders.

After thinking about it, Rogge put the information away.

The warning to collect firewood from the altar did not bother him, nor would it change his behavior.

To him, there was actually no difference between the Ash Leaders and the Altar Gatherers. He knew very little about them and was not clear about their positions.

It would be foolish to decide on one's own side under such circumstances.

What specific attitude Candlelight should adopt towards both parties will depend on subsequent contact and understanding.

"well enough?"

Claymore walked forward and held out his hand to the frightened Blackface.

"What a bullshit! I was almost corroded! Damn, is the stomach of this sea snake filled with the devil's saliva..."

Heimian was breathing heavily, and although his breath was not very good, he still thanked immediately after calming down.

"...Ah, newcomer, thank you so much this time. Otherwise, Niu Jiao and I would have become skeletons in the belly of the sea."

"I don't even know if I can be resurrected again..."

Blackface gave a bitter smile, grabbed Claymore's hand and stood up with difficulty.

"Damn you, these remaining flames in the darkness are not trustworthy. They are clearly two sea snakes, but they told us there is only one."

"I'll cut off that guy's tongue when I get back!"

Blackface cursed.

This time they took Claymore with them to explore the dark area, but they almost got killed by a Legacy Flame.

The other side mixed only one lie among a bunch of truths, which was the number of enemies.

"This snake scale... hmm... this high sea snake should have some Asian dragon blood in its body."

Niu Jiao squatted beside the corpse of the high seas snake, stroking one of the unique snake scales.

Claymore heard this and was about to respond, but when he saw the back of the horn, he was shocked: "You're still bleeding!"

"It's okay." Niu Jiao responded in a deep voice, as if he had long been accustomed to the pain: "It will stop after a while."

"Don't worry, he's tough and strong, and he's carrying a special holy object, so there's no need to worry about him."

Heimian also explained.

Claymo needs to explore to gain the attention of the temple master Agonis, while Niu Jiao also has his own exploration pursuits, and Black Face just goes with the flow.

So they have been exploring with Claymore for some time, and they have gradually come to trust this newcomer.

Although the other person's dazzling qualities may sometimes be dazzling, at least they don't need to worry that this newcomer will have ulterior motives towards them.

"Let's find a place to rest first." Claymore suggested, "After all, this is not a safe place."

Upon hearing this, Blackface and Bullhorn also agreed to Claymore's proposal.

Soon, the three of them came to a relatively safe cliff by the sea and set up camp under a sunken cave.

The sky was still dark, as if it was the prelude to darkness in the evening. Apart from the occasional cold sea breeze, no sound of life could be heard.

"It really doesn't bleed anymore..."

Claymore was surprised to see that the hideous wound behind the horn had already solidified.

You know, the three of them are all firewood gatherers at the fire-bearing level, while the two sea snakes opposite have reached the dust and fire ignition point or even higher.

Its terrifying attack power directly shattered the heavy ox-horn armor.

Even with such a horrible injury, the bull's horns can actually heal themselves. It has to be said that this is a very magical ability.

I don’t know if it’s his talent.

"This is related to my war." Niu Jiao said suddenly.

Hearing this, Claymore looked at him in surprise, waiting for his next words.

Blackface also looked at Bullhorn, then at Claymore, but said nothing.

In the face of Claymore's doubts, Niu Jiao did not answer his questions. Instead, he took out several bottles of canned wine and some dried meat and salted offal from the cloth bag and placed them next to the fire.

"Come and have a drink."

Niu Jiao threw two cans of wine to Claymore and Blackface next to him.

Blackface naturally took the can and took a big gulp.

Seeing this, Claymore didn't know what he meant, but he still took a sip.

The wine from the ox horn tasted noticeably hot and spicy, and was not very tasty.

“How does it taste?”

“It’s hot and spicy.”

Claymore frowned and told the truth.

The black-faced man on the side chuckled, and Niu Jiao's bearded face couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"In that situation just now, you could have easily escaped. Why didn't you run away? Are you confident that you can be resurrected?" Black Face suddenly asked.

The power of the two sea serpents was extremely terrifying, and naturally there was a moment in the battle when they were almost wiped out.

And at that time, Claymore had plenty of time to escape.

"I can't say I was confident. I was thinking of countermeasures at the time and didn't have time to think about these things." Claymore shook his head.

He really didn't think of running away. All he was thinking about at that time was how to deal with the enemy.

"Then you are a natural warrior, or perhaps you were already a brave fighter before you became a firewood gatherer."

"Faced with such a predicament, I didn't show any fear or retreat, but instead thought about how to deal with it..."

Having said that, Heimian couldn't help but let out a dejected smile, and stopped talking before taking a big gulp of the wine.

Claymore shook his head.

"I still remember the first time I explored, I encountered a zombie. Not only did I try to communicate with it, but I was also hesitant when swinging my sword. Naturally, I ended up getting bruised all over..."

"When I first encountered those terrible monsters, their roars chilled me to the bone and I could hardly move... I also ran away and fell while running. I looked so miserable at that time..."

"I have no doubt that there are natural born warriors in this world, but... I am not one of them."

After hearing his words, Heimian fell silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Come."

Niu Jiao raised the wine jar with a deep voice.
