Xu Hao took a deep breath and carefully stepped into the second floor of the Woma Temple. The air was filled with a burnt smell, mixed with the pungent smell of sulfur.

That smells good, I know you can get it nearby!

He cast the invisibility spell again, and Xu Hao's figure instantly became transparent. He held his breath and moved forward slowly. Every step was cautious, for fear of alerting the monsters lurking around him.

Suddenly, a wave of scorching heat hit him. Xu Hao abruptly stopped in his tracks. Not far in front of him, a Flame Worm was pacing. It was enormous, entirely crimson, and surrounded by blazing flames, leaving charred marks on the ground with every step it took.

Xu Hao's heart pounded. He crept closer, gripping the fire talisman tightly in his hand. When the distance was within reach, Xu Hao suddenly unleashed the fire talisman, sending a blazing flame hurtling towards the Flame Worm.

The Flame Worm let out a shrill howl and turned to search for the source of the attack. Xu Hao seized the opportunity to move quickly and cast invisibility again. Fine beads of sweat had already seeped from his forehead, and his heart was pounding like a drum.

The Flame Worm angrily spewed fireballs, searching for hidden enemies. Xu Hao held his breath, waiting for the next opportunity to attack.

When the Flame Worm calmed down slightly, Xu Hao attacked again. This time, he unleashed both red and green poison in quick succession. The two poisons intertwined on the Flame Worm's body, turning red one moment and green the next.

The Flame Worm let out a painful roar, its movements becoming sluggish as the poison took effect, not only causing continuous damage but also continuously reducing its defense.

The Flame Worm roared angrily, its flames growing even hotter. Xu Hao felt a wave of scorching heat wash over him and had to take a few steps back.

Just then, Xu Hao summoned his skeleton warrior. With a cracking sound, a skeletal warrior appeared before the Flame Worm.

Before entering the Woma Temple, Xu Hao didn't dare summon the skeleton in advance. The lowest level monsters in the Woma Temple were too much for his current basic skeleton to defeat.

Flame Worm immediately turned his attention to the newly appeared enemy. The skeleton warrior wielded his axe and engaged Flame Worm in fierce combat.

Taking advantage of the situation, Xu Hao continuously cast fire spells and poisons, carefully dodging the Flame Worm's counterattacks while constantly healing the skeleton. The battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and Xu Hao's mana was almost exhausted, his clothes soaked with sweat.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the Flame Worm collapsed to the ground. Its body gradually grew cold, and the flames slowly died out.

Xu Hao slumped to the ground, panting heavily. There were several burn marks on his arms, but he couldn't care less about the pain at the moment.

His hands trembled as he repeatedly harvested meat from the corpse of the Flame Worm, just as he had done when he butchered venison. Soon, a ring shimmering with horn-like objects appeared in his hand.

"Congratulations, you have obtained the item: Flame Worma's Horn."

Xu Hao let out a long sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his lips.

This journey was not easy. In the legendary game, the monsters in high-level maps are so powerful that you can't even break their defenses when you hit them, but they can kill you with a single blow.

Fortunately, this time it went smoothly, and he obtained the necessary materials. Before leaving, Xu Hao took a deep look at the Woma Temple.

"When I come back, I'll kill not only the Flame Worms, but also the Guards and the Cult Leader one by one!"

Back to the city! !

Time's up, back to the real world.

Xu Hao carefully took the Flame Worma Horn out of his backpack and examined it closely in his palm.

This horn is a deep, dark red, its surface covered with fine lines, like the solidified traces of flowing lava. The tip is slightly curved, shimmering with a metallic sheen. In the sunlight, the entire horn emits a faint red glow, as if still retaining a lingering heat.

Xu Hao gently stroked the surface of the horn with his fingers, feeling a peculiar warmth, like holding a piece of charcoal just taken from a fire. He held the horn up to his eyes, carefully examining the intricate patterns. Some charred marks remained at the base of the horn, where it connected to the Flame Worm's body. Xu Hao carefully scratched it with his fingernail, and some fine ash drifted down, turning into starlight in the air.

He gently rotated the horn, admiring the changing colors it displayed from different angles. Sometimes it was a deep crimson, and sometimes it resembled flowing lava.

It's done. The next step is to use this as the main ingredient to refine the Flame Fusion Pill!

Early the next morning, Xu Hao arrived at the pharmaceutical factory on the third basement floor of the Bureau of Mystery Management. Pushing open the heavy metal door, a rich aroma of herbs wafted out, mixed with a hint of sulfur.

The factory is spacious and bright, with various modern pharmaceutical refining equipment neatly arranged.

The equipment was all installed and tested yesterday, and the medicinal herbs were almost all in place this morning. The efficiency of this strange management bureau is truly remarkable!

Xu Hao navigated the area where the materials were stored with practiced ease. His fingers traced the labels as he quickly recalled the recipe for the Flame Fusion Pill. Soon, he selected the necessary auxiliary materials: dragon fruit, cinnabar, sulfur flowers, and some rare minerals.

Finally, Xu Hao carefully took out the Flame Worma Horn from his backpack. Under the bright light, the red halo emanating from the horn was even more pronounced, as if a small flame was dancing within it.

Xu Hao took a deep breath, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

Xu Hao carefully placed the Flame Worma Horn into the specially made grinder and slowly turned the handle. The horn made a slight grinding sound as it gradually turned into fine powder. He carefully weighed each auxiliary material and added them to the reaction vessel in the correct proportions according to the formula.

The reaction vessel is a professional pharmaceutical tool, far superior to the pressure cooker and rice cooker Xu Hao used in his own kitchen back then. It's multifunctional and highly efficient; simply put, it's a high-tech alchemy furnace.

As the temperature rose, the materials in the reactor began to melt, emitting waves of heat. Xu Hao was completely focused, constantly adjusting the heat, sometimes increasing the intensity, sometimes decreasing it. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his eyes never left the monitor.

Modern equipment is great; the temperature can be precisely controlled. Even if Lao Tzu (the Supreme Lord Lao) possessed profound magical powers, wouldn't he still need his attendants to fan the room to set the temperature as desired?

Three hours passed, and the medicinal liquid in the furnace gradually solidified into a reddish-brown solid. Xu Hao held his breath and carefully took out the large lump of solid. While it was still warm, he placed it on a special mold, and with a few quick movements, reddish-brown pills appeared on the tray.

Just one step away!
