Silver Wolf’s side profile lines were very soft, her nose bridge was straight, and her chin was pointed.
Her eyelashes were very long, especially obvious from the side, like two small fans, casting a small fan-shaped shadow under her eyes.
Her skin was very white, and in the gray-white light of the Soul Sand Valley, her skin seemed to be glowing.
Lux suddenly realized one thing.
This girl named Silver Wolf…
is actually quite good-looking.
No, she is very good-looking.
Silver Wolf noticed Lux’s gaze, staring at her and turning around on her.
The corners of Silver Wolf’s mouth raised slightly.
She thought to herself: As a galgame master, isn’t it easy to handle a little girl?
The corners of her mouth curled up a bit more.
Sigh, Silver Wolf, oh Silver Wolf, you are truly a sinful woman.
“Have you seen enough?” Silver Wolf suddenly spoke, her voice carrying a hint of a smile.
Lux snapped back to reality, her face turning red to the roots of her ears “swish”.
“Who, who is looking!”
“If you weren’t looking, how did you know I was talking about you?”
“I—”
“Yo, you’re blushing.”
“That’s because it’s hot!
The Nether is hot to begin with!”
Silver Wolf turned her head back, her gray pupils reflecting Lux’s flushed face and puffed-up ears, and the arc of her mouth grew a bit larger.
“Oh, it’s hot.”
“It is hot!”
“Mhm, it’s hot.”
Silver Wolf turned her head away and continued to walk forward, but the hand holding Lux’s wrist did not let go.
Lux bit her lip behind her, her ears hot enough to fry an egg.
She wanted to say something to save face, but opened her mouth and couldn’t say a word.
“What is that?” Silver Wolf suddenly spoke, pointing to a white creature floating in the air in the distance.
Lux came back to her senses and looked in the direction Silver Wolf was pointing, “Oh, this, this is a Ghast, the one that was bombing us outside the Nether Fortress just now.”
“Oh, that thing that cries so annoyingly.” Silver Wolf nodded, “Can we fight it?”
“We can fight it, but it’s not recommended to fight it here.” Lux looked around, “There are a lot of Ghasts in the Soul Sand Valley.
If you fight one, there will always be Ghasts coming to annoy you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, several baby-like cries came from the distance.
Lux’s ears stood up abruptly.
“Jinx.” Silver Wolf said angrily.
“You’re the jinx!”
The two accelerated their pace at the same time, almost jogging through the Soul Sand Valley.
The wailing and crying behind them mixed together like a strange symphony, and only gradually faded away after they ran out of the valley.
Lux leaned against a crimson fungus tree, panting heavily.
No, they gave her a digitized body, why didn’t they give her infinite stamina?
“Next time…
next time we take a detour…” She held her knees, her tail still puffed up.
Silver Wolf stood next to her, expressionless, her breathing not even disrupted.
“Your stamina is too poor.”
“This is called…
conserving stamina…
what do you know…”
“It’s just poor.”
“Shut up.”
After passing through the Soul Sand Valley, the terrain turned back into the Crimson Forest.
The lava sea in the distance rolled at the end of the horizon, and the orange-red light illuminated half the sky.
Lux was about to continue moving forward when she suddenly stopped.
She pricked up her ears and turned them.
There was a sound. This chapter was copied from g.com without permission.
It was a low, rhythmic “snort snort” sound, like the breathing of some large animal.
She looked in the direction of the sound—in the distance in the Crimson Forest, a group of huge red creatures were rooting at the hyphae on the ground.
They had huge tusks, hard shells on their backs, and were exuding hot steam all over their bodies.
Hoglins.
“Don’t go over there.” Lux lowered her voice, grabbed Silver Wolf’s sleeve, and hid behind a rock wall nearby.
Silver Wolf looked in the direction of her gaze, and her purple pupils narrowed slightly.
“What is that?”
“Hoglins.
Wild boars of the Nether, very aggressive.” Lux whispered, “Don’t provoke them.
One is fine, but if it’s a group, our equipment is basically throwing our lives away.”
Silver Wolf stared at the group of Hoglins for a while, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, somewhat eager to try.
“Really?”
“…
Don’t get any ideas about them.”
“I didn’t.”
“It’s written all over your face.”
Silver Wolf put away her smile and turned her head away expressionlessly.
“Let’s go.” Lux pulled her and took a wide detour, avoiding the Hoglins’ territory from afar.
After walking for another stretch, the terrain in front changed.
The color of the Crimson Forest gradually faded, replaced by a field of black and gray basalt columns.
The towering rock pillars were like huge stone stalagmites, rising from the ground and piercing straight into the rock layer above.
A gray-white mist filled the space between the rock pillars, and there was a pungent smell of sulfur in the air.
Basalt Deltas.
“This place…
is quite spectacular.
Few planets have such natural landscapes.” Silver Wolf looked up at the towering rock pillars, rarely expressing admiration.
“Spectacular is spectacular, but the road here is the hardest to walk.” Lux took out her iron sword, “And there are many Magma Cubes here, they split, and it’s very annoying to fight.”
As soon as she finished speaking, something black fell from the rock pillar above her head and hit the ground with a “splat”.
The thing bounced twice, then unfolded into a square black monster with orange-red patterns flowing on its body surface.
It was about the size of a cat, but its jumping ability was amazing, jumping three blocks high at a time.
Magma Cube.
Lux raised her sword to meet it and split it into two with one sword.
The Magma Cube’s body split, turning into two smaller Magma Cubes, continuing to bounce towards her.
“Look, that’s it.” Lux said while hacking, “The more you fight, the more there are, it’s annoying as hell.”
Lux hacked two or three times and finally dealt with the two small Magma Cubes.
The Magma Cubes’ bodies turned into gray-white smoke and dissipated, leaving a few Magma Creams rolling on the ground.
Silver Wolf bent down to pick up a Magma Cream and squeezed it.
“It’s soft.”
“Stop playing, let’s go.” Lux put the iron sword back into her inventory and wiped the sweat from her forehead, “We’re almost there.”
After walking for about ten minutes, the view in front suddenly opened up.
A huge black building appeared in front of the two.
It was built of Blackstone and Basalt, with complex patterns carved on the walls—rough, primitive, with a certain wild sense of power.
The building was several stories high, with towers and battlements stacked on top of each other, like a small castle.
Bastion Remnant.
“Finally here.” Lux breathed a sigh of relief, and her tail swayed unconsciously.
Silver Wolf stood next to her, tilting her head and looking at the building in front of her.
“Is this the place you’re looking for?”
“Yes.” Lux nodded, “Bastion Remnant.
Inside are netherite upgrade templates, and netherite scraps.
With these, I can make netherite equipment.”
“netherite?” Silver Wolf raised her eyebrows, “Is it very powerful?”
Silver Wolf nodded thoughtfully, then shrugged.
“Alright then, I’ll walk around nearby, and we’ll meet here then.”
Lux was stunned.
“You’re walking around by yourself?”
“Yeah.” Silver Wolf’s tone was very casual, “Aren’t you looking for something?
I’ll just be in the way if I follow.”
“I didn’t say you were in the way…” Lux paused, “But you’re alone, you don’t know anything, it’s too easy to have an accident.”
Silver Wolf turned to look at her, with a hint of a smile in her purple pupils.
“My ability is much better than yours.”
Lux opened her mouth, remembering how Silver Wolf killed a Wither Skeleton with one sword in the Nether Fortress.
It was indeed quite powerful.
Tch, wait until I draw Epic Fight, I’ll hang you up and whip you.
“That won’t work, you’re not familiar with this place, in case you meet—”
“Lux.” Silver Wolf interrupted her.
Looking into Lux’s eyes, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
“Don’t worry too much about me.”
Lux’s face turned red “swish”.
“Who, who is worried about you!” She turned her head away, her ears pressed against her scalp, her tail standing stiffly behind her, “You’re being narcissistic!”
“Oh.” Silver Wolf’s tone was very flat, but the arc of her mouth grew a bit larger.
“What are you laughing at?”
“I’m not laughing.”
“You are clearly laughing!”
“You saw it wrong.”
Lux took a deep breath, telling herself not to be like a newbie.
“…
Meet here in an hour.
Don’t run too far, don’t provoke the Piglins, don’t—”
“Got it, got it.” Silver Wolf waved her hand and turned to leave.
After walking two steps, she stopped and turned back.
“Lux.”
“What now?”
“Tsundere is out of fashion.”
“You’re the tsundere!
Your whole family is tsundere!”
Silver Wolf chuckled and walked away without looking back.
Her silvery-white long hair had a cold luster under the dark red light and soon disappeared between the basalt columns.
Lux stood on the spot and reached out to touch her somewhat hot ears.
“…
What a trouble.”
She muttered, turned around, and walked towards the entrance of the Bastion Remnant.
The gate of the bastion was very high, estimated to be five or six meters, built of thick black stone bricks.
A Piglin stood on each side of the gate, wearing golden armor, holding a golden sword, and their noses kept twitching.
When Lux approached, the two Piglins turned their heads at the same time.
Golden eyes stared at her, with small flames jumping in their eye sockets.
Lux subconsciously clenched the golden sword in her hand—she deliberately changed into a golden sword because Piglins have a natural affinity for gold products.
She was also wearing a golden helmet, so they shouldn’t attack actively…
Just as she was thinking, the Piglin on the left suddenly spoke.
“Who are you?”
Lux’s brain went “buzz”.
She was stunned.
Piglins can talk?
