"Master, we need to prepare to head to the Howling Lands."
"If we don't leave soon, the Abyssal instance will close!"
Just then, Bitter Tea Meredyth spoke.
She had already shed her Bitter Tea form, standing in mid-air, her long hair swaying slightly.
Wang Chu sighed softly.
Since he couldn't think of a good solution, he could only bring her along for now.
Wang Chu released the Will of the World Tree from his embrace.
A gentle breeze rose, enveloping the little girl and lifting her to the side.
"Then let's hurry and go."
Wang Chu frowned slightly, speaking softly.
If it weren't for the possibility that Xiao Mengyin had already set off for the Howling Lands,
he would have preferred to go back first.
After all, the appearance of this Will of the World Tree was just too strange!
He wanted to go back and study it as soon as possible.
Now, he could only hurry and speed things up to get off work early!
In an instant!
Purple light blazed in Meredyth's eyes, like a mysterious vortex rising from a deep, secluded pool, the light seeming to contain the great power to tear through space-time.
Her fair, slender fingers gracefully traced a line in the void, the movement light yet seemingly containing the force of a thousand pounds.
Wherever her fingertips passed, the space seemed like fragile silk, first twisting and deforming slightly, emitting a low hum, as if the space were groaning in pain.
Immediately afterward, a dark and deep fissure slowly emerged, the edges of the fissure flickering with faint purple arcs of electricity, crackling and popping, as if gnawing at the surrounding space!
"Alright, Master."
"The anchor point has been marked, beyond the fissure is the Howling Lands where Xiao Mengyin is located."
In the next moment,
Wang Chu stepped through the fissure!
......
Whoosh—
The fierce wind raged across the land like an angry beast, the sharp howling sound seeming to pierce the soul.
Flying sand and rolling stones danced wildly in the wind, forming curtains of sand and waterfalls of stone, obscuring the sky and sun, plunging the entire world into a state of dimness and chaos.
In the sky, dark clouds gathered, their shapes bizarre, like giant black vortices slowly rotating, with streaks of purple-black lightning flashing and leaping within the clouds from time to time.
"So, this is the Tier 6 instance... the Howling Lands..."
He glanced around.
On the desolate land, jagged rocks were scattered, along with many traces of battle.
Meredyth had just said that the marked anchor point was the instance where Xiao Mengyin was.
That is to say, these traces were all left behind by Xiao Mengyin's battles.
"But these battle traces don't seem intense... purely left behind by monsters being blown away."
"It seems Xiao Mengyin hasn't been here long, and hasn't encountered the Storm Goddess and the others..."
After a moment of thought, Wang Chu set his sights on a distant mountain peak.
That was the meeting point he and Xiao Mengyin had agreed upon.
A few minutes later.
Nezha's red figure had already appeared at the edge of the highest mountain range in the Howling Lands.
At this time, a white figure was standing motionless at the cliff's edge, seemingly lost in thought.
Just by looking at the figure's back... Wang Chu recognized her; it was definitely Xiao Mengyin!
After all, this height... was indeed too distinctive!
"Captain Xiao."
Xiao Mengyin turned around and nodded: "You've arrived."
Wang Chu observed her; at this time, she had not activated her large mecha but was in the state of activating her exoskeletal mecha.
The overall color of the mecha was white, exuding a cold metallic luster.
The black armor on her chest rose slightly, and the white armor on her waist and abdomen fit so closely that he could see the shape of her abs and navel.
Further down, the armor design was similar to Bitter Tea, revealing a small section of her snowy white thighs.
Behind her, there was also a pair of mechanical wings.
After observing her, Wang Chu smiled and said: "Captain Xiao, this mecha really suits you."
"Thank you."
Xiao Mengyin said expressionlessly.
But for some reason, such praise, which she had heard many times before, made her feel a little elated at this moment.
Afterward, she looked at the white-haired girl beside Wang Chu with some confusion and asked.
"This is..."
Wang Chu shrugged: "I don't know either... just picked her up in the instance."
Picked her up...
Xiao Mengyin was somewhat speechless.
How could Wang Chu pick up a strange little girl from some unknown corner every time he went to an instance?
Also, did he not even spare little girls?
"Hey, hey, hey... don't look at me with that kind of gaze!! I'm not that kind of person!!"
"Oh."
"What 'oh'?! Grrr... I really am not!!"
"Oh..."
Perhaps needing to adjust the atmosphere before the great battle, the two laughed at the same time.
A moment later, Wang Chu waved his hand: "Let's go quickly... I'm in a hurry to get off work. Where is the Storm Goddess's lair you mentioned?"
"It's here."
Xiao Mengyin turned around and looked down at the bottomless cliff.
Wang Chu was stunned?
Beneath the cliff?
So, the reason for meeting here wasn't because it was conspicuous and easy to find...
But because... this was the entrance to the Storm Goddess's lair?
Wait!
Wang Chu's eyes sharpened, his gaze fixed on Xiao Mengyin's slender back.
Xiao Mengyin could find the Storm Goddess's lair in such a place?
How did she do it?
Could it be?
Xiao Mengyin had once... jumped down?
Then, he shook his head again.
It wasn't necessarily jumping down; both the exoskeletal mecha and the large mecha had the function of flight.
Perhaps it was just a coincidence...
"You should have heard about my core, right?"
Xiao Mengyin said softly, her back to Wang Chu.
"Originally, I was hoping that we could fight side by side after you reached Tier 6."
"But now you... are only Tier 3."
"After going down, stay far away, don't come out, and wait until the battle starts, then assist me from afar with your Wind Manipulation ability."
"Under my Absolute Berserk... whether it's the Divine Envoy or the Storm Goddess... purely comparing raw strength, they won't be my match."
After speaking, she paused.
"If I die, you run quickly."
"I believe you have the means to enter, and you also have the means to leave."
Wang Chu looked at her somewhat lonely back and smiled.
"Die?"
"Don't worry, the ones who will die..."
"Will be them!"
