Chapter 1 The Appearance of the Thunder Eagle

The appearance of the Thunder Eagle instantly attracted the attention of the surrounding players.

"A flying mount!"

"What a powerful flying mount! The pressure it emits is definitely at the level of a Level 100 Great Lord!"

"So cool! I wish I could have a flying mount like that someday."

The sudden appearance of the Thunder Eagle sparked a lot of discussion among the members of the various powers, their eyes filled with envy.

If the summoning whistles that players possessed weren't stored in item spaces, making them extremely difficult to drop, they would probably have rushed up to snatch the flying mount already.

"Is that the legendary Thunder Eagle?" Fan Muran looked at the giant Thunder Eagle descending, stirring up a gust of wind, and was amazed.

Although the members of the various forces were currently searching for flying mount eggs, as was their Sky Blade Adventurer Team, they still didn't have much of a concept of flying mounts. At most, they had only seen them in videos.

Now, seeing a Thunder Eagle with a wingspan of more than twenty meters in person, it was even more spectacular than a small passenger plane landing.

"Get on, there are too many monsters on the road, we'll be faster if we fly over," Shi Feng said to Fan Muran as he jumped onto the back of the Thunder Eagle.

The entire Molten Canyon was dangerous, but flying was not prohibited.

It was just that the Thunder Eagle was too conspicuous, making it easy for people to know the movements of him, the Zero Wing Guild Leader, so he hadn't summoned it along the way. However, now, in order to obtain the main branch of the Tree of Life, he had to summon the Thunder Eagle to quickly reach the caves of the Molten Ruins. Moreover, the Molten Canyon was now sealed off, making it difficult to contact the outside world, so he didn't have to worry about it.

Fan Muran and the others looked at the handsome and mighty Thunder Eagle and excitedly sat on its back. Immediately, the Thunder Eagle's wings shook, and it soared directly to a height of several hundred meters, flying directly towards the Molten Ruins.

The forests and players on the ground quickly flashed past their eyes, the speed was simply incomparable to mounts on land.

"Captain, this flying mount is simply amazing! If our Sky Blade could have a few of these, our leveling speed would definitely improve a lot in the future, and we could even leave other adventurer teams far behind," the Level 101 Assassin next to Fan Muran clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Indeed, if we could have such a movement speed, it would be much easier to go to those distant Level 100 maps in the future, and the time saved would be enough for us to rest and recover properly." Fan Muran looked at the Level 100 monsters on the ground that couldn't touch them at all, and finally understood how great the benefits of flying mounts were, as well as the source of Zero Wing's strength.

The time saved by this flying mount would allow them to go to the Level 100 maps twice a day to level up and acquire resources, which was nearly double the time. No wonder Zero Wing had so many Tier 3 classes so early on.

They had originally spent a full two hours on the road, but now the Thunder Eagle only spent a little over ten minutes to reach the entrance to the caves of the Molten Ruins.

This ten minutes or so even made Fan Muran and the others feel like they were dreaming.

They had finally managed to fight their way to the exit of the Molten Canyon, but now they had returned so easily without any fighting. Even sitting on the flying mount, their stamina had recovered somewhat, as if their previous desperate battles had all been a dream…

"Guild Leader Black Flame, our team has explored the Molten Ruins carefully, and we are very familiar with the roads in the Molten Ruins. We can guide you, and there are many members of our adventurer team near the passage to the inner area, which should be able to help you a lot," Fan Muran suggested.

Shi Feng had saved their team's life before, and she owed him a big favor. Since Shi Feng wanted to fight for it, she would naturally help as much as she could. Moreover, the more adventurer team members entered, the greater the capital to fight against War Blood would be.

"Then I'll have to trouble you," Shi Feng thanked.

"Then I'll have my team members contact them now. I believe they should be able to gather by the time we reach the caves leading to the inner area," Fan Muran said, and quickly had her team members go offline to notify the other adventurer team members who were active inside after seeing Shi Feng agree.

Afterwards, Fan Muran led Shi Feng and the four of them towards the caves in the Molten Ruins that led to the inner area.

The entire Molten Ruins was extremely dangerous. Even a team of Level 100 experts, each wearing a full set of Level 100 Mysterious-Iron equipment, could easily be wiped out here.

Because the ruins were filled with Level 100 Great Lord-ranked Azure-Eyed Magic Spiders, and occasionally Level 100 High Lord-ranked Flame Magic Spiders would appear. This was bad enough for those Tier 2 teams that had difficulty dealing with Level 100 Lords when encountering several Azure-Eyed Magic Spiders, but encountering Flame Magic Spiders was a dead end, and few could escape.

Fan Muran's team had already figured out the passages in the outer area of the Molten Ruins and the range of activity of the Flame Magic Spiders, and easily led Shi Feng and the four of them around the Flame Magic Spiders. Along the way, they only had to deal with a few Azure-Eyed Magic Spiders. They didn't even need Shi Feng and the four of them to take action. Fan Muran and the others used traps to hold back a few Azure-Eyed Magic Spiders, allowing everyone to escape the Azure-Eyed Magic Spiders' pursuit.

In just half an hour, Fan Muran led Shi Feng and the four of them to a cave the size of a small town. The ceiling was covered in azure crystals, radiating dazzling light, making the entire cave as bright as day.

In this cave was a steel passage more than ten meters high, radiating a terrifying pressure that could be clearly felt even hundreds of yards away.

This terrifying pressure was extraordinary. If a Tier 1 class came here, they probably wouldn't even be able to get close to the entrance of the passage. Even Tier 2 classes felt mentally uncomfortable, with a feeling of being restricted.

However, the entrance of the passage was crowded with players, numbering more than ten thousand. They were all expert teams from various forces, each with a high level and excellent equipment. There were many top experts wearing Epic-grade equipment, and even dozens of Tier 3 classes.

Among them was a team wearing the Sky Blade cloak. This team didn't have many people, only a little over a hundred, but the equipment on these people was very powerful. There were many experts equipped with Level 100 Mithril equipment, making them quite dazzling among the many teams.

"Yuluo, you guys came so fast! We've already rushed over as quickly as possible, but you guys were still able to get here first," Fan Muran said as she walked towards the Sky Blade team, greeting the leading white-clothed and beautiful Tier 3 female Priest.

Although this pretty female Priest, who looked harmless and petite, seemed approachable, the experts of the entire Sky Blade team looked at this female Priest with a gaze full of fear and awe.

"You've finally arrived. If you hadn't come, I was thinking of taking people to try and break through," the female Priest Yuluo said happily as she looked at Fan Muran.

"Guild Leader Black Flame, let me introduce you. This is our Sky Blade's Chief Priest, Yuluo. Her strength ranks among the top five Priest classes in Dragonheart Island." Fan Muran said as she introduced the two to each other, "Yuluo, this is Guild Leader Black Flame. Guild Leader Black Flame is very powerful. He only needed a word to make that Remnant Snow Like Flowers give way."

"Hello, Guild Leader Black Flame." Yuluo carefully scrutinized Shi Feng after hearing Fan Muran's introduction, and went straight to the point, "I don't know when your team will arrive. Our Guild Leader's situation is very bad right now. I don't know how much longer she can hide. I hope we can start taking action as soon as possible."

Previously, for the sake of the teams active in the outer area, the Guild Leader had her stay behind. Now, the Guild Leader, Zi Wei, was being closely pursued by War Blood's experts and was in the extremely dangerous inner corridor. If it weren't for the road into the inner area being too dangerous, and even the main force of some super forces couldn't break through with hundreds of people, she would have rushed in to rescue her long ago.

"We're all here, we can go in anytime."
