Arknights, my information is updated every day

After signing the witchcraft contract, Chen Xiu took only two steps when he suddenly remembered the important matter.

He originally came here to remind people about the giant Originium worm.

"By the way, do you have an exploration mission tomorrow?"

"Yes, we need to go to the crater to take a look, but don't worry, I will prepare the potion on time."

Ermengarde thought that Chen Xiu was afraid that her work over there would delay the progress of the potion.

"Be careful." Chen Xiu nodded. "Due to the volcanic activity, the animals that originally lived here may have migrated. Some of them are quite powerful. It would be very dangerous if we accidentally bump into them."

Ermengarde heard the hidden meaning in the words.

Since it is the prophecy of the Cyclops, it does need to be treated with caution.

But what's wrong with this guy? Even with his body in such a state, he's still using prophecy spells?

It seems that I have a boss who is not so worry-free!

"Don't worry, I'll pay more attention to the situation."

Chapter 86 Adele Can Hear (5K)

As a student of the Lord of the Lich King's Court, Ermengarde's strength must be not weak.

Chen Xiu had just witnessed her spellcasting ability and felt that even in Leithania she was qualified to be rated as a top spell master and had the ability to teach independently at the university.

With her help in keeping an eye on things, the safety of the Naumanns was guaranteed.

When they got back to the car, Dolly was already asleep in mid-air, while the Emperor was lying on Dolly with his arms and legs spread out.

Walk a few steps back and you will reach the sleeping area on the train, which is the same as the upper, middle and lower bunks on a train sleeper.

At present, only Chen Xiu sleeps here. Texas usually sleeps with the seat in the cab laid flat.

Lying down on the lower bunk, the tired Sarkaz youth soon fell asleep.

In the blink of an eye, it was already noon of the next day.

Chen Xiu was woken up by the emperor.

"Hey! Kid, wake up! We have a new business!!"

The emperor pulled Chen Xiu out of the bed without saying a word, ignoring the extremely resentful look of the Sarkaz youth.

"Boss, what the hell have you come up with? You can get a new commission in this remote place?"

"Look at what you're saying! Aren't those guys next door human? If they are human, they always have needs!"

The emperor put his hands on his hips proudly, very satisfied with his ability to seize every opportunity to promote his business.

Chen Xiu was shocked when he heard this. How could this suddenly be related to the Neumanns?

"Boss, please tell me in detail first..."

The sun is rising.

The morning mist had not yet dissipated on the trade road outside Una Volcano.

Katya tightened the collar of her windproof cloak, her eyes fixed on the winding sand dunes at the end of the trade route.

The crisp sound of pack bells pierced through the mist. Magna's fingers suddenly grasped her husband's sleeve. The leading caravan circled the sand dunes, revealing a leaping gray shadow.

Behind the tall beast of burden, the warm-colored Caprini girl stood on tiptoe at the front of the car, stretching her neck as far as she could to look into the distance, and at a glance she saw two familiar figures in front of her.

The lively little sheep's ears trembled, and the expectation in the girl's eyes was replaced by surprise.

"Adele!" Magna's call was mostly blown away by the wind, but the excited girl with goat horns had already jumped off the shaft of the cart.

Seeing this, Katya immediately rushed forward and caught her daughter who jumped into her arms.

"Mom and Dad!"

"Adele, you've grown a lot taller."

Magna touched her daughter's head and compared it to herself with a smile.

Katya stood up and waved to the caravan leader, thanking the old man from Elafia for bringing his daughter safely.

Looking at this heartwarming scene, everyone in the caravan laughed heartily, feeling happy about the reunion.

On the way to the camp, Adele excitedly showed the Naumanns a picture book that recorded everything she had seen and heard along the way, and she couldn't wait to share these interesting stories with her parents.

Katya and Magna hugged Adele on either side, listening to their daughter's endless story.

What seemed so novel to Adele was already commonplace to them, but when she told it, it added a bit of new interest.

Until, Adele said it last.

"Mom and Dad, I saw a huge truck flying in the sky last night! Is this a new technology developed by some professor? It's incredible! How can they actually do something like this!"

What is that? A truck flying in the sky?

Katya and Magna looked at each other, and both saw the absurdity in each other's eyes.

It is speculated that the daughter may have mistaken the scene in her dream as reality, otherwise such a thing would be impossible no matter how hard she tried.

Then, the two heard their daughter's surprised exclamation.

"Mom and Dad! This is the car! This is the car I saw flying in the sky last night!"

The Naumanns looked at the Penguin Emperor and suddenly thought of the neurotic Liberi. They remembered that he also shouted about flying over the mountains last night.

Katya couldn't help but stare at the Penguin Emperor and take a closer look.

He is a professor at the School of Originium Arts at William University in Leithania, and his understanding of the application of spells is absolutely professional.

No matter how you look at it, the Penguin Emperor is just an ordinary heavy-duty transport vehicle, and there are not even any signs of unauthorized modifications.

Theoretically, there is absolutely no possibility of flying.

But having just met his daughter, he didn't want to discourage Adele from sharing interesting stories with him and Magna.

"Adele, it just looks a bit like that magical flying truck you saw. If it could really fly, it wouldn't have taken the wrong road and left us stranded."

Adele had been staring at the Emperor Penguin, but she couldn't help feeling disappointed after hearing what her father said.

Seeing this, Magna immediately changed the subject: "Adele, haven't you always said that you wanted to climb and explore the volcano with us? How about we take you with us this time?"

Adele's eyes suddenly lit up, and her fluffy sheep ears twitched with joy.

Climbing a volcano with her parents and participating in their research has always been her biggest wish!

"Really? Is this really possible?"

"Of course, after all, Adele is grown up now."

Magna smiled and touched her daughter's head, then hugged her in her arms, feeling equally happy.

Although she does not intend to force her daughter to inherit her mantle, she also does not forbid her daughter from learning more about her research. The future path will be chosen by her own.

Ermengarde happened to overhear the conversation between the three members of the family.

She would not object at first, but now she remembered Chen Xiu's warning last night.

"Professor Katia, although Una Volcano isn't active enough to erupt yet, it's bound to affect the animals living there... If our predictions are correct, this is likely the time for large-scale migration of volcanic animals."

Katya turned to look at Magna, and even Adele noticed something was wrong and looked at her mother.

"That's true." Magna nodded. "However, since Una Volcano has always been an active volcano and the surrounding area is very barren, there aren't many animals living here. At most, there are only a few Originium insects."

Having said that, it is still a risk, and Originium Worms cannot be said to be completely harmless.

Adele was keenly aware of her mother's hesitation, and the well-behaved girl made a decision immediately.

But before she could open her mouth, a loud and passionate voice suddenly interrupted her.

"Hey, hey, hey! Friends, are you having any troubles?"

"stop!"

Chen Xiu grabbed the emperor's beak and physically sealed him.

"So, Boss, you've taken on the task of escorting the Naumanns as they climb the volcano, right?"

The emperor nodded and slapped away Chen Xiu's presumptuous hand.

"Right, that is it!"

The fat penguin held his head high, chest puffed out, and his hands on his hips, speaking with great confidence.

"It'll take two or three days to get my car fixed in Texas anyway, so I'll definitely have to find something else to do during that time!"

Chen Xiu covered his face helplessly.

I thought I could be lazy and leave the trouble to Miss Lich.

However, he didn't expect that he couldn't escape the emperor's backstab in the end and was involved in this danger.

When I think about it carefully, if I hadn't said anything last night, this wouldn't have happened.

Ermengarde would definitely follow the lamb family of three, and she would never sit idly by if anything happened.

But the Emperor is a chaotic factor after all, who could have expected that he would take the initiative to come forward! ?

"Hurry up!" The emperor patted Chen Xiu: "We should get ready to set off!!"

Since it was a temporary mission, there was no time to get the professional equipment needed to climb the volcano.

Fortunately, the Naumanns prepared a backup in case of any accidents.

Chen Xiu tried it on and found it was wearable and usable.

Adele also put on her own equipment with the help of Magna.

Chen Xiu looked at her twice. Although she was already a girl, her body looked much smaller.

If I remember correctly, the lamb was not very tall, only about 1.45 meters.

She has not been infected with mineral sickness and her hearing has not been affected.

The emperor symbolically put on protective clothing.

If he didn't wear it, the Naumanns would never allow him to climb the volcano with them.

Low locust trees spread between the cracks of the rocks, and the dark red soil is mixed with black volcanic gravel, which makes a slight crackling sound when stepped on.

The dry, hot wind swept past, carrying fine sand, and the air was filled with the astringent smell of mineral dust.

At the foot of Una Volcano, the Naumanns walked and explained to their daughter the surrounding geological environment and the factors that caused the area to become what it is today.

Chen Xiu and Ermengarde lagged behind a few steps to avoid disturbing the warm moment of the family of three.

The Emperor fell behind at the end, exchanging a few words with the invisible Lord of Sheep from time to time, planning whether to take the initiative to make some noise to make this climb more exciting.

Dolly also feared that the world would not be in chaos, and he agreed with the emperor's proposal.

Seeing that the Naumanns were immersed in the teaching atmosphere, Ermengarde took out a bottle of pink potion and handed it to Chen Xiu.

"Here, I made this overnight. Try it first so I can make adjustments."

"Um, are you sure you didn't mix the wrong potion? Why does the color of this potion look a little strange?"

Chen Xiu took the potion and looked at it for a few seconds. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it looked like an aphrodisiac.

"This potion is called 'Antareth's Kiss', and it was developed by a certain Queen of the Whiplash." Ermengarde explained, "Don't worry, it just looks similar, but it doesn't have the same effect."

Chen Xiu did not trust Ermengarde's moral integrity, but he trusted her desire for money.

After all, this is the first bottle of potion. If it is not effective, then the basis for cooperation between the two parties will no longer exist.

Chen Xiu no longer hesitated. He took off his dust mask, raised his neck, and drank the entire bottle of potion.

It tastes a little sweet at first, like drinking sugar water, and there is no strange taste.

But soon, a feeling of heat rose from the abdomen and flowed to every part of the body.

Chen Xiu let out a long sigh, and his overdrawn and exhausted body seemed to have regained some strength as if a long drought had finally brought rain. He felt a sense of fullness inside, but this made him feel empty instead.

However, the strength is slowly returning.
