Chapter 199 My Childhood Self
When Phoenix opened her eyes, she was stunned by the sight before her.
"What have I done to you? Is this still the world of Seer?"
The hot magma is like a pot of boiling steel, rolling and bubbling, making a "gurgling" sound. They flow along the ground, leaving behind fiery red traces wherever they go, as if the earth was torn open.
Looking around, the entire space was covered by this scorching red ocean, without a trace of life or hope.
The air was filled with smoke and a pungent smell of sulfur, making people feel suffocated and uncomfortable. This place was like hell, full of endless pain and despair.
"What is the purpose of this fragment bringing me here?" Phoenix muttered to himself.
Before he finished speaking, the volcano in the distance suddenly trembled violently, and boiling magma gushed out like a fountain.
At this moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar figure appeared in front of Phoenix—it was her as a child!
"What's going on? Why does this person look so much like me when I was a kid?"
Phoenix looked at the scene in astonishment, his heart full of doubts and confusion.
However, what surprised her even more was that her little self seemed to understand her words and nodded and said, "Hello, you can call me Xiaofei. I really look like you when you were a child."
Phoenix frowned even deeper, her eyes full of confusion and bewilderment. She couldn't help but ask, "What? Are you really me as a child? Then what exactly is this place?"
Xiao Fei smiled and explained: "This is a mysterious space that can help you achieve super evolution, but whether it will succeed depends entirely on me."
Phoenix patted Xiao Fei's head in annoyance: "Since you are my childhood, why don't you just help me complete the super evolution directly? This will save a lot of time!"
Xiao Fei looked at him helplessly: "Although I am your childhood, it doesn't mean that I will help you unconditionally. If you want to get my help, you have to pay a price."
Phoenix smiled. "Haha, it seems like it won't work if you want to take advantage of someone for free. Well, then tell me what the price is. Tell me clearly as soon as possible so that I can solve this problem quickly."
Xiao Fei raised her head and looked towards the towering volcano in the distance, and then said, "As long as you can send me to that volcano and let me absorb the huge energy hidden at the bottom of the volcano, I will be able to help you achieve super evolution."
Phoenix showed a trace of contempt after hearing this: "It's that simple? It's just flying you there, it's a piece of cake for me!"
Xiao Fei chuckled and responded: "If you really think it's that easy, you can try it yourself to see if you can fly through this area smoothly."
Phoenix couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when she heard Xiao Fei's tone. She thought to herself, "Is there really some mystery here? Humph! I don't believe it!"
Phoenix flew up without hesitation, flapping his wings vigorously, and shouted to Xiaofei proudly: "Look, I am flying so easily. You should also fly up quickly, and I will take you with me."
Xiao Fei still stood firmly in place, with no intention of taking off. Instead, she said calmly: "Okay, in that case, why don't you try to fly forward a little further and see if you can move forward smoothly?"
"Just fly, it's not that difficult! Just look carefully!" Phoenix continued to flap its wings confidently and moved forward courageously.
However, just as he flew forward, he felt his whole body suddenly become extremely heavy, as if he was crushed by a thousand-pound mountain. He fell straight to the hard ground, grimacing in pain.
Xiao Fei walked slowly to the disheveled Phoenix and said with a half-smile, "How is it? Still want to fly over? As soon as you fly forward, the surrounding area will immediately exert a terrifying gravity equivalent to ten times the normal gravity, and the result will naturally be like what you are now."
Phoenix yelled with a face full of anger: "No! Why didn't you say it earlier?" Then, Xiao Fei replied slowly: "Oh, seeing your smug look, I really can't bear to disturb your beautiful fantasy! So, just take me there honestly."
Phoenix thought for a moment, nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll lead the way, but what if we encounter any danger along the way?"
Xiao Fei explained seriously: "Don't worry, just follow me and I'll make sure you have a safe trip~"
Looking at Xiao Fei's serious look, Phoenix couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "Hey, this little brat has learned all the tricks of lying from me when I was a child. If things continue like this, I'm afraid I'll inevitably run into trouble if I take her with me. I have to be more careful..."
Then Phoenix pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Since it's safe, let's go."
After saying that, Phoenix took Xiaofei's hand and walked towards the volcano, just like a mother taking a walk with her daughter.
However, when they walked around, several grids appeared in front of them, and there was a sign next to it with the rules and punishments written on it.
Rules for hopping grid:
Throw a sandbag and jump: Throw the sandbag into grid 1 for the first time and jump, throw it into grid 2 for the second time and jump, and so on.
Jump in with one foot for a single grid and with both feet for a double grid.
Build a house to win: reach the finish line and return, bend down and pick up the small stone in grid 1 to win. Turn your back to the grid and throw the stone into any empty space. The empty space becomes your house and no one else is allowed to jump in. Those who fail have no right to build a house.
Punishment: Burning some of the feathers.
Phoenix carefully read the rules in front of her, thinking to herself: Well, these conditions seem acceptable... However, when her eyes swept over one of the rules - "part of the feathers need to be burned", her eyes suddenly widened in shock.
"What! Burning feathers? How is that possible? Are you going to let people live?"
Phoenix screamed uncontrollably, his voice filled with fear and anger.
She had never imagined that there would be such a cruel request. For her who valued her reputation as her life, this was simply a nightmare!
Phoenix wanted to back out. "Well, can we go back? I don't want my feathers to get hurt."
