Being Blind For Five Years, All My Disciples Became Forbidden Curse Mages

126 Stronger Than Herself

“You have to understand that humans are naturally greedy.”

At this point, Qing Niao beside him sighed.

Andre continued, “The more important feature about Flame Rocks is it increases the concentration of energy. This is a natural energy fragment. Moreover, the more the energy is active, the higher the absorption efficiency. Therefore, Fire Dragon City is constantly increasing the mining of Flame Rocks, which brings about a series of problems.

After a long period of mining, the difficulty of mining Flame Rocks became greater, so the time needed to mine also became longer. Although Lava World is not like our training ground, where it was impossible to stay for a few hours, it would still be uncomfortable to stay inside for a long time.

!!

In addition, the Flame Rocks itself was poisonous. The energy in the Flame Rocks contained fire poison. It was said that Fire Dragon City used children to absorb this poison.

Although it will be a little painful, it can increase their attack power. Staying in a high-density energy environment for a long time will also be beneficial for them to become Awakened in the future. However…”

Andre paused at this point. Fang Ping continued to ask, “Many people still died because of this?”

Andre nodded. “Children are more adaptable and resilient. In the past, if there was an uncomfortable reaction, they would be taken away from the environment and would recover quickly. However, I heard that many accidents have happened now.”

Qing Niao snorted.

“This is what I know. There might be other situations, but I still think that Fire Dragon City is a man-eating city now.”

“A man-eating city?” Fang Ping repeated Andre’s words.

“In any case, we’re not staying in Fire Dragon City for long. This has nothing to do with us. When Chen Long returns to Fire Dragon City, our mission will be completed. We should be able to return.”

“Go back?” Fang Ping said, “It probably won’t be that smooth. We met that Gnome in the coniferous forest. What was his name again?”

Beside him, Qing Niao said, “Werner.”

“Well, Werner said that they received a mission to come over and guard the official road. They’re only allowed to enter and not leave. There are also many Gnome hordes coming with them. I don’t know what they’re going to do, but it won’t be easy for us to go back.”

“Huh? What kind of strange mission is this?”

Andre’s face was full of doubt, “Now that we’ve entered the Snow Moon, the environment of the Goby Highlands will only become worse and worse. Fire Dragon City can be self-sufficient, but not the outside world. Guarding the main road of the fortress during the Snow Moon? What are they thinking?”

“Who knows?”

In any case, that was what Fang Ping had heard. If that was the case, this was probably why Teacher Elsa was fearless.

But then again, the problem of self-sufficiency in Fire Dragon City was huge.

“Everyone from the Elite Team, dinner is ready.”

The people in the courtyard shouted loudly. It was similar to yesterday’s buffet mode. They ate and drank as much as they can take.

Speaking of which, Fang Ping did not seem to have seen a market or a place that sold food outside. He reckoned that these things had to be bought through specific channels.

“Hello, Fang Ping.”

As soon as he walked over, someone stopped Fang Ping. It was a girl called Bella. They usually did not interact much.

“What’s wrong? What’s the matter?”

“Let me introduce myself. I’m from the Summit Chamber of Commerce…”

The moment she opened her mouth, Fang Ping knew what she was going to say. Yet another person here to recruit him.

Fang Ping quickly interrupted her. “Sorry, I don’t have any plans for this yet. Please make way. I’m very hungry.”

“You can listen to our conditions first…”

“No need.” Fang Ping quickly caught up with Andre and Qing Niao and walked to the table in the middle of the courtyard.

Bella stood where she was, watching Fang Ping’s back. Her originally smiling expression fell. With a dark expression, she said in a low voice, “It’s just that you are lucky and advanced to Class 2 early. Do you really think you’re someone? You’re still waiting for a price. Hmph, you won’t be able to enter our Summit Chamber of Commerce even if you want to in the future!”

Fang Ping did not know what happened after that. He caught up to Andre and the others. “Why didn’t the two of you wait for me?”

On the other hand, Andre smiled and teased, “Fang Ping, you’ve been quite popular with girls recently. I see that many girls have come to look for you. At a time like this, of course we can’t disturb you.”

“Yes, popular with girls, right? Just you wait.” Fang Ping looked around and decided to use his special characteristics.

However, there was no need. The huge snake was still relatively eye-catching.

“Red Camellia Snake! Do you want to come over for dinner? To chat?”

Andre turned and ran. “Just you wait!”

In the wee hours of the morning, Fang Ping was still cultivating and accumulating energy. He had not fallen asleep.

The surroundings started getting noisy. Shouts, knocking, laughter, and cries grew louder.

Being disturbed by the outside world, the efficiency of accumulating energy decreased.

Fang Ping opened his eyes to see what had happened. He realized that many people in the courtyard had also gotten up.

Beside him, Andre stood up and turned sideways, listening to the voices outside.

“I think Chen Long is back.”

Fang Ping pointed at the courtyard door. Someone had already walked over and said, “Shall we go out and take a look?”

“Sure.”

The courtyard door was opened, and the street outside was brightly lit.

There were many people on the street. As the courtyard door opened, the voices became clearer.

“The Chen Long Returns! Ice Rebirth!”

The chaotic sounds were covered by this neat slogan. The people in the street shouted as they walked.

Some were excited and flushed, and some choked back while wiping their tears.

Some houses by the roadside also opened their doors. The people inside walked out and blended into the crowd, continuing to flow forward.

There was no end in sight, and no end in sight. People kept entering, and the torches and oil lamps in their hands lit up Fire Dragon City.

It was the Chen Long that lit up Fire Dragon City.

...

“So Chen Long… is that powerful?”

Looking at the current scene, Fang Ping realized more clearly that the Chen Long’s energy was stronger than he had imagined.

However, Chen Long had clearly returned to Fire Dragon City yesterday. Why did he wait until tonight to officially appear?

Just to let these people build up their power? It was meaningless.

It seemed that he had to wait until the matter was over and ask Chen Long.

Like now, he did not know anything and was kept in the dark. He was confused.

It was also related to his strength. He was not qualified to have access to this information.

The crowd was still moving forward, shouting slogans. However, all of this had nothing to do with Fang Ping. It was difficult for Fang Ping to understand their feelings.

They were celebrating the return of their Chen Long, but to Fang Ping, Chen Long was just a friend who participated in hunting missions radically, cultivated diligently, and was slightly richer.

He should be considered a friend.

Human emotions were not common.

...

He turned around and walked back to the courtyard.

He continued to accumulate energy.

…

“Everyone, get up and gather.”

In the morning, he heard Elsa’s voice. She had returned.

Fang Ping crawled out of his sleeping bag and realized that he was the only one still sleeping.
