Heimau explained, "Not plants, people!"
When Mr. Luo explored a secret realm, he found a very high-grade ingredient called the Elegant Narcissus. At the time, there were several chefs nearby, but this particular vegetable required extremely high memory to harvest, and all the chefs around had failed. Mr. Luo, however, had rigorously trained in the Ravendell Forest and happened to be skilled in handling this type of plant. His mastery was so profound that even Zhang Wei was impressed.
However, after picking the Elegant Narcissus, a villain attacked, not only snatching the ingredient but also aiming to kill Mr. Luo. With a single move, Mr. Luo was severely wounded. If the surrounding vines hadn't detected his dying state and snatched his body to teleport him out, Zhang Wei might never have seen him again.
Zhang Wei felt a surge of anger rush to his head, an unspeakable fury building in his chest.
"I'm very sorry, I promised Tian Zui I'd look after you."
Mr. Luo smiled faintly, "What are you talking about?"
"How can you blame yourself for something like this?"
"Contention is only natural. This can only be blamed on my carelessness, or being too weak."
Logically, this was true. If Zhang Wei were in that situation, he would have attacked to seize the ingredient as well. But the ingredient was already in hand, and then to be severely injured…
Moreover, for so many years, he was the one who took things from others, not the other way around!
"Who did this!"
"I didn't get a clear look… but they wore golden armor and their combat power was incredibly strong… conservatively estimated… I can't estimate, it was beyond my comprehension."
Mr. Luo, with his combat power well over level one hundred and his discerning eye, could say this. It meant the attacker was at least level two hundred, possibly even two hundred and fifty. However, Zhang Wei felt no fear. Currently, aside from that colossal steed, there was no creature that made Zhang Wei feel incapable of defeating it.
Based on Mr. Luo's description, the attacker wore extremely luxurious golden armor, held a string of prayer beads, a crimson cape billowing behind them, and their waist was adorned with various knives. The attack manifested as a golden light, with golden fist energies striking from all directions, making defense impossible.
However, among these tens of thousands of Promoted individuals, finding the target would be difficult. With that person's strength, promotion should be a certainty. Still, seven days had passed, and he wondered how things were on the other side.
Zhang Wei summoned Warm Harbor and instantly teleported to the Northern Territory! He silently prayed, "Heaven, grant me some favor. Please don't let me see nothing but ruins, or I'll have a terrible headache."
He opened his eyes! Zhang Wei let out a long sigh of relief; everything was unchanged. All the necessary buildings were still standing. The volcanic sea turtles that attacked from the north were handled by Wu Yong and Haru. He wondered how they were faring.
Taking Xi Feng with him, Zhang Wei teleported directly to the interception point. The thick fog swirled. Upon arriving, the land was scorched black. The once picturesque natural environment had been shattered. Not a single patch of unbroken grass remained on the ground, and fire rained from the sky intermittently, like a barrage of meteors!
"Meteor Fire Rain, is this… a weather phenomenon?"
He closed his eyes and concentrated, but unfortunately, he hadn't cultivated auditory abilities. Fortunately, he soon spotted a group of wounded individuals nearby. Around a campfire, a group of people were miserably sipping broth.
When Zhang Wei asked, they immediately replied, "This fire rain and meteors are the volcanic sea turtle's attack!"
Zhang Wei was astonished. What kind of skill had such a wide range? It was only level one hundred and thirty…
The person responded, "You can't think of it that way. A monster's size determines its stamina limit. That volcanic sea turtle is like a mountain, with endless stamina. It can spew out ten thousand acres of fire rain with a casual breath!" Its colossal size brought an enormous area of attack. Even a simple roll could devastate thousands of acres, let alone an area-of-effect skill.
