Peerless Allure: Nine Series Summoner

Chapter 255 Flaming Forest
According to the information on the task list, the green-armored mole lives in the flame forest hundreds of miles away from Jinluo City.

In order to complete the task as soon as possible, Ling Lan did not rush on the road slowly as before, but summoned the Ice Cracking Crane, and drove their respective flying beasts with Xiao Xu, and hurried to the Flame Forest.

After all, it is still unknown whether the green-armored mole can be found smoothly, and Ling Lan doesn't want to waste too much time on the road.

In just half a day, the Ice Cracking Crane carried Ling Lan and landed on the edge of the Flaming Forest.Xiao Xu followed behind Ling Lan, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration as he looked at the large expanse of fiery red trees in front of him.

"Unexpectedly, in this fifth-class country, there will be such a magical place!"

Yanhuo Forest is located at the easternmost edge of the territory of Dayan Kingdom, where it is always dry, and often there is not a single drop of rain for more than ten years.

In this endless desert, the breath of death is everywhere.The flame forest is the only place where plants grow in this wasteland.

These fiery red trees have branches stretching towards the sky at various strange angles, but not a single leaf can be seen on them.

So that people often misunderstand that these are dead trees that have withered.

But they are indeed alive.Every year, the area covered by the flame forest will expand a lot, and those strange branches will be closer to the sky.

"It's here."

Ling Lan checked the weapons and equipment on the spot, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with it, she and Xiao Xu headed into the depths of the forest.

Because the flame forest is different from ordinary forests, the trees here have no branches and leaves, so the line of sight is fairly wide, and it will not affect the speed of Ling Lan and Xiao Xu.

It's just that the two searched the forest at a constant speed for most of the day, but they still couldn't find the shadow of the green armored mole.

The entire forest was eerily quiet, and occasionally the wind from the wasteland would blow up the yellow sand on the ground.In just half a day, Ling Lan and Xiao Xu turned into tired travelers after a long journey.

Seeing the sun sinking to the west little by little, Ling Lan couldn't help but feel a little heavy in her heart.

——The field of vision in this fiery forest is wide, and if you look around, you can see everything in the forest at a glance.But even so, they still failed to find any clues about the green-armored mole.

The unfavorable start made Ling Lan feel that this mercenary mission is not optimistic.

She originally thought that after arriving at the target location, she would be able to solve the problem in threes and fives.

"It's getting late, and we're not familiar with this fiery forest. We'd better find a place to rest overnight and make plans tomorrow."

Ling Lan looked around for a week, and felt that the high slope in the southwest direction was not bad.The terrain is flat and the field of vision is wide, allowing them to be alert in time.

Xiao Xu didn't have any objection, he always had no objection to Ling Lan's arrangement.

After obtaining Xiao Xu's consent, the two arranged a simple formation on the high slope in the southwest direction, which was not only a temporary shelter, but also able to resist the attacks of low-level monsters.

……

The first half of the night was safe and sound, but in the middle of the night, things changed suddenly.

Ling Lan and Xiao Xu were resting in their homemade sleeping bags when they suddenly felt the ground tremble.The two woke up from their sleep almost at the same time and sat up.

Feeling the continuous irregular vibrations from the ground below them, the two looked at each other, then immediately got up, put away the formation and observed the surrounding changes.

During the day, it was still a peaceful forest of flames, but under the light of the cold white moonlight in the middle of the night, it looked a little scary and weird.

In the middle of the forest, the flat surface during the day is constantly cracking, as if there are living things moving underground.

——It’s a blue-armored mole!

Xiao Xu was overjoyed immediately, and quickly turned to look at Ling Lan.I saw her staring at the place where the change occurred in front of her, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

The vibration in the middle of the forest was still getting stronger, and the cracks on the ground were getting bigger and bigger, and they continued to extend to where Ling Lan and Xiao Xu were.

It's just that the green armored mole has never revealed its true face.

"If the holy beast comes over later, don't make a move, let me deal with it myself."

Ling Lan wanted to test her own strength.Rong Jin told her that because she had external help when she was promoted to Xuanzun, the foundation of her profound strength might not be very solid.

In addition, Ling Lan also had a hint of luck, and wanted to try, whether capturing the green-armored mole this time would be an opportunity for her to break through to a holy summoner.

Xiao Xu hesitated. "That's a holy beast. With your current cultivation, can you do it?"

Ling Lan knew that Xiao Xu was worried for her, but now was not the time to shrink back. "You are helping me by the side. If my situation is not good, you will help me again."

Xiao Xu nodded, feeling a little more admiration for Ling Lan in his heart.

——She also came out to practice, Ling Lan is still a girl, but she works harder than herself, it seems that she has to work harder!
Ling Lan didn't know, because her actions gave Xiao Xu the idea of ​​working harder.

At this moment, all her attention was focused on the ever-extending crack in the distance.

Looking at the speed at which the cracks expanded, it would take a while for the blue-armored mole to reach her location.Ling Lan concentrated all her attention, wanting to give the green-armored mole a fatal blow by surprise.

It seemed that in the blink of an eye, the huge crack on the ground extended to Ling Lan's feet.Ling Lan could even vaguely see the animal horns looming in the darkness.

Her heart was also excited, anyway, this was the first time she confronted a holy beast head-on.She wanted to contract the blue-armored mole.

"Woo - who is here to disturb my practice?!"

As it got closer, the green-armored mole finally smelled the faint aura Ling Lan was hiding.It spit out human words, raised its head from the ground without warning, and its huge horn just poked at the position an inch in front of Ling Lan's feet.

Ling Lan did not dare to underestimate the enemy.Beasts that have reached the level of holy beasts can not only speak human words, but also their cultivation should not be underestimated.

Now she is only a heaven-level summoner, although she is only one chance away from breaking through to the holy level, but if she misses by a tiny bit, it is a thousand miles away. If she is not careful, she may die here.

"From now on, I will be your master!"

Ling Lan jumped into the air, no longer restraining the pressure of the summoner on her body, and released all her spiritual power.

The movement of the blue-armored mole obviously froze for a moment, but it soon calmed down and shook the smooth fur on its body.

"Woo—want to be my master, wait for me to crush you, let's see how big you can be!"
