Chapter 674: A World of Ice and Fire_1
The man with the mustache grumbled, “Why are we in such a rush? I’ve been running for so long, at least let me eat something.”
“Eat my ass! After this is done, I’ll treat you to whatever you want.” Ethan Smith said, dragging the man with the mustache along.
The man with the mustache was still unhappy and said, “Hey, I can’t work without having some food...”
“Don’t you want to see the mask?” Ethan Smith rolled his eyes.
At the mention of this topic, the man with the mustache suddenly perked up.
He waved his hand and said, “Forget it, forget it, no time to eat, let’s go!”
So, Ethan Smith followed the man with the mustache, leaving Green Moon Villa that very day.
Not long after Ethan Smith left, the purple robes from the Capital City Martial Arts Association and representatives from the major families arrived at Green Moon Villa.
The villa was filled with an atmosphere of solemnity.
Several top-ranking Marquises stood on the square.
Although they restrained their aura, the momentum they exuded still made people shudder.
“Who... are you looking for?” Polly Reeves could see that these people were not to be messed with and tried to be as polite as possible.
“Where is Ethan Smith?” one of the purple robes asked coldly.
“Mr. Smith just left, and it seems like he went out on business,” Polly Reeves replied.
The man in the purple robe frowned slightly, his body floating up slowly, then his terrifying divine sense directly enveloped the entire Green Moon Villa!
A few minutes later, the man in the purple robe said coldly, “He’s not here.”
“How long has he been gone?” someone looked at Polly Reeves and asked.
Polly thought for a moment and replied, “About half an hour.”
“Half an hour... He hasn’t gone far, chase!” one of the purple robes commanded.
The people immediately left Green Moon Villa to search for Ethan Smith.
...
At this time, Ethan Smith was following the man with the mustache, using various means of transportation to find the final material.
The land of Pyro was vast and rich, and their destination was still in the most desolate part of the northwest of the country.
After taking a plane, a car, and a donkey cart,
The two arrived at a desert after a long and bumpy journey.
Standing on the edge of this desert, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but feel a wave of scorching heat.
“Are you sure the material is here?” Ethan Smith frowned.
This place didn’t seem like a place where treasures could be found.
Ethan Smith looked down at the huge pit, and at a glance, it seemed to have no bottom.
The oncoming heat wave almost burned his face.
“What, are you scared?” The man with the mustache teased from the side.
“If you’re too afraid, there’s still time to turn back.”
Ethan took a deep breath, determination flashing across his face.
“In order to revive those two male corpses, I have to go down,” Ethan said through gritted teeth.
He cautiously reached his hand into the flames, and the moment they touched, Ethan’s hand was immediately engulfed by the fire!
The flames were extremely fierce, and in just an instant, they burnt Ethan’s palm, tearing open the skin and flesh!
“No way.”, Ethan Smith hurriedly extinguished the flames.
He frowned, “If I jump in, I will surely die.”
The man with the mustache spread his hands and said, “I’ve already thought of many ways and tried using magical artifacts for protection, but none of them worked.”
“All magical artifacts can’t withstand this true fire, so it’s up to your special constitution.”
Ethan Smith said sternly, “If my cultivation were to advance another step, maybe I could walk out of these flames alive, but right now... it’s impossible.”
Considering the mere touch instantly burned Ethan Smith’s hand, leaping into the pit would undoubtedly be deadly.
“Anyway, the item is underneath this fiery pit. If you can’t get it, you won’t be able to control those two male corpses,” the man with the mustache said, spreading his hands.
Ethan Smith’s expression couldn’t help but turn grim, finding himself stuck between a rock and a hard place.
“If you really can’t do it, just give up,” the man with the mustache pulled Ethan Smith.
“After all, there are plenty of other ways to save people, and you don’t have to rely solely on those two corpses, right?”
Ethan Smith shook his head and said, “No, this is currently the fastest method.”
The man with the mustache rolled his eyes and said, “Then just jump in.”
Ethan Smith stood in front of the fiery pit for a long while without saying a word.
Suddenly, he slapped his head and exclaimed, “That’s it!”
“I figured it out!” Ethan Smith said excitedly.
He quickly took the coffin of the masked woman from the Spatial Magic Artifact!
The moment the coffin appeared, the temperature immediately dropped by several degrees!
Ethan Smith pointed to the coffin and said, “If I hide in this coffin, won’t I be able to avoid the flames?”
In that instant, the man with the mustache was stunned. He scratched his head and said, “You’re really a genius! But... can this coffin withstand the true fire?”
Ethan Smith shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but I can only give it a try.”
“Later, when I get into the coffin, you throw the coffin down,” Ethan Smith instructed.
