The reincarnated devil was blessed by the goddess

“Swish! Snap!”

Theresa's figure transformed into a streak of golden light, drawing a brilliant trail across the corrupted earth.

The creatures from the borderland that blocked her way didn't even have time to roar before they turned into red mist and exploded in front of her in the sword light.

"Let's go."

Theresa turned her head slightly and looked at the people behind her, with a barely perceptible gasp in her voice.

Her white clothes were stained with the monster's slime, and the dark red liquid spread on the fabric like a strange blooming flower.

If it weren't for the black hands that silently cleaned her clothes, her clothes would have been soaked through and her original color would have been invisible.

"Why don't you take a break for a while, little white hair?" Ao Yu stood not far away, with a hint of concern in his tone.

It's not that he doesn't want to get close, but he can't get close.

There was a thick red mist surrounding Theresa, which was the trace left after she killed the monster.

It stayed wrapped around her body, flowing as she moved.

"No rush... to the stone..."

The shining light on Theresa's body dimmed, and she once again withdrew from the all-white state.

It's so unfair. You obviously hate them too, but you can't get rid of them yourself.

She hardly stopped for a moment along the way.

Especially those special monsters, they will burst out more red mist after they die, and anyone who gets close will be enveloped in an instant.

So Theresa had to take the responsibility of killing them alone.

Using her light, she clears a safe path for the team behind her.

"Is everyone almost done cleaning up? Let's go!"

Ao Yu's loud voice echoed in the empty ruins, with a hint of urgency and fatigue.

Many adventurers stopped what they were doing and slowly pulled their blood-stained swords out of the monster's corpse.

There was a slight "hissing" sound as the sword blade separated from the flesh, as if announcing the end of the battle.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and scorched earth. The dry wind blew up the dust on the ground and hit everyone's face.

They don't have special powers like Theresa, and they can't easily deal with these monsters.

Many people have been fighting in this high temperature for a long time, with beads of sweat on their foreheads, sliding down their cheeks and soaking their collars.

Some people even began to cough softly, their voices suppressed and restrained, as if they were afraid that coughing loudly would break this brief calm and affect the mood of the team.

"Where's the direction?"

Theresa raised her hand to lift her sweat-soaked hair from her forehead, breathing slightly.

"The direction is correct. I'll check it every once in a while."

Ao Yu stopped and took out a palm-sized device from his arms. The shape was similar to a compass, but the pointer was firmly fixed by arcane magic, always pointing to their predetermined direction.

"Don't worry, we're not going astray."

"Let's go then."

Theresa nodded, and like the other adventurers, she used the long stick in her hand as a crutch to support her body and took one step forward at a time.

Along the way, she experienced the horror of the border area.

It's not the obvious dangers, but the unknown environment and the red mist of the fire people that affect emotions.

It’s hard to imagine how people can avoid going crazy in this environment.

You have to walk for a while and then stop for a while, otherwise you will really faint.

"Whoohoo-"

A long-lost breeze suddenly blew, bringing a hint of fresh air, brushing everyone's face.

Everyone couldn't help but stop, close their eyes and feel the tranquility for a moment.

"The fourth blue stone is just ahead."

Ao Yu pointed to a blue rock half a man's height not far away, and said with a hint of relief, "It seems that the people from the Daikong Guild built a safe house next to the cliff. It's cool here, so we can stay here for the night. It seems that we can't even call it staying overnight."

After he finished speaking, he finally couldn't help but sit down on the ground, then simply lay down and let out a long sigh.

He glanced at Theresa, a smile on his lips. "Little White Hair, don't hold on any longer. Lie down for a while. Eat something, drink some water, and recover your strength."

"Ah."

Theresa hummed softly and lay down as well, placing her palm on her burning forehead, feeling the heat coming from beneath her skin.

She looked at the red and orange sky above her head.

If it weren't for the predecessors like Strelitzia to pave the way for them, how difficult the journey would have been.

The previous generation planted the trees, and the middle generation applied fertilizers.

"Where is Xiao He?" Theresa asked curiously.

The team of all of them moved forward slowly but steadily like a rolling pin.

"She's probably been traveling around again, helping out everywhere."

Ou Yu took out a pack of biscuits from his backpack and threw it to Theresa. He also opened a pack, took a big bite, and spoke incoherently.

Theresa took the cookie and took a bite. The crispy texture made her feel a little more relaxed.

"We're... pretty lucky," she whispered, a hint of emotion in her tone.

Not far away, the other members of the team had already set up simple tents.

The firelight shone on their faces, dispelling some of the coldness of the border area.

I don't know what the situation is like for other teams.

Because she and Blackhand are here, it is basically impossible for companions to turn into fire people.

"I want to take a nap, little white hair."

Ou's voice was filled with weariness. He casually took off his hat and covered his face with it.

"Then I'll go..."

Theresa was about to stand up when Ou grabbed her wrist.

"Don't be so busy. Give them something to do. You should get some sleep too. Since the Dakong Guild dared to build a safe house here, it means the problem is not serious."

Ou's voice came from under the hat, muffled.

"Uh... okay..."

Theresa hesitated for a moment, but finally lay down obediently.

She folded her shawl into a small pillow, placed it under her head, and then lay down on it.

There was a warmth coming from the ground, and it felt like the floor heating was on.

Ah...what nonsense am I talking about...

It seems that I am indeed a little tired.

Her thoughts gradually became blurred, and her consciousness seemed to be pulled into a dream by a gentle force.

She returned to the sea of ​​sunflowers again.

The blue sky, the white clouds, and the warm sunshine falling on my body.

The sunflowers raised their heads high, and their golden petals swayed gently in the breeze, as if waving to her.

At the end of the sea of ​​flowers, there stood a figure.

Her skirt fluttered in the wind, blending in with the sunflowers around her.

Ahaha~ Isn’t that Sunflower herself!

Theresa couldn't help but laugh and ran towards the figure with light steps.

However, just as she stretched out her hand and was about to touch the figure.

The blue sky was swallowed by gray clouds, the white clouds turned into red mist, the warm sunshine disappeared, and was replaced by a hot atmosphere.

The sunflowers withered quickly, their golden discs turned black, and then turned into pools of black mud, rotting in the ground.

The ground beneath Theresa's feet began to shake violently, and cracks spread out like a spider web.

She lost her balance and fell into the crack.

"what--!"

Just as she was about to fall into the abyss, the man's arm suddenly stretched out and grabbed her wrist tightly.

Theresa looked up at the person who was holding her.

"Brunette? You're not?"

Theresa tried to see her face clearly, but found that she couldn't focus no matter what she did.

The next second, the man suddenly turned into countless black dots and then quickly drilled into Theresa's body.

"and many more--!"

Before Theresa could react, the crack under her feet widened again and her body fell again.

Her voice was swallowed by darkness, and her dream was shattered.

"Wake up, there's trouble."

Ou's voice exploded in Theresa's drowsy head.

For some reason, they seemed to be surrounded.
