Chapter 118

"A-Han, you rest, I'll take care of it."

The dragon flew up from behind, aimed at the still-burning flames, and inhaled deeply.

He continuously inhaled the raging flames into his mouth.

White Dragon turned his head and looked at him in surprise.

It's hard to imagine that flames could be absorbed.

The dragon filled its belly with flames and flew towards the sea.

The White Dragon followed closely behind.

They flew all the way up to the sea.

The dragon faced the sea, about to breathe fire from its mouth.

"Wait!" the White Dragon called out to him, then leaped down into the water and roared down at the bottom.

Moo--

A majestic and terrifying sound traveled through the air and seawater.

Almost all fish, shrimp, and other creatures scattered in all directions the moment they heard the sound.

The White Dragon yielded his position.

The dragon breathed fire onto the sea.

The long, fiery dragon struck the sea surface, scalding the water to boiling point and turning it into a murky yellowish-green.

Most of the fish and shrimp had already been scared away.

In the scalding seawater, only a small number of fish and shrimp turned belly up.

"Let's go." The White Dragon gestured to the giant dragon, then took another long, deep breath of water.

The dragon looked at him, its eyes filled with astonishment.

"What are you looking at?" White Dragon snapped out of his daze and asked candidly, "Isn't my scream cool?"

Dragon: "Cool!"

The White Dragon flicked its tail. "Let's go back and put out the fire."

When the dragon absorbed the flames for the last time, the fire was almost extinguished, and Water Demon were present to oversee the situation.

White Dragon estimated that it probably wouldn't catch fire.

Sure enough, when they returned with water to fight the fire, most of the fires in the Magic Forest were only smoldering smoke and smoldering embers, and had not actually caught fire.

They sprayed water on each individual fire point to absorb the flames and cool them down again.

The fire gradually died down.

The creatures of the Magic Forest were all startled and are still in shock.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei transformed back into human form, rescued the injured, and assessed the losses.

Goblin discovered the fire immediately and issued a warning.

The casualties in the Magic Forest were minimal.

Although some of the vegetation was burned, most of the large trees were not killed.

Given enough time, they will most likely sprout new buds again.

The Goblin, dejected, scurried to Telingewei and Xie Juanhan's feet, squeaking in apology.

The Goblin had no idea that the fertilizer would spontaneously combust during fermentation.

They've brewed fertilizer so many times, but only this time did it burn.

The flames were exceptionally large and burned exceptionally quickly, even penetrating the thick layer of soil and directly igniting the dry branches and fallen leaves in the forest.

Telingewei asked, "The batch of fertilizer fermented from rock mud?"

The Goblin obediently squeaked.

Telingewei: "That shouldn't be your problem. Rock mud has fire properties, which is different from ordinary magical materials."

Xie Juanhan understood and said in a low voice, "It's our problem."

The Goblin stared wide-eyed, not understanding.

Xie Juanhan didn't explain, but said, "I cast a divination for this batch of rock mud fertilizer before, and the result was an inauspicious one, indicating that the process won't go smoothly."

"I initially thought it was a fermentation failure, but now it seems more likely that it refers to a fire that broke out during the fertilizer fermentation process."

The Goblin: "Squeak?"

Xie Juanhan: "It was almost inevitable that it would catch fire, but now that this accident has already happened, everything will definitely go smoothly from here on out, and there's nothing else to worry about."

The Goblin solemnly promised, "Squeak!"

Having learned from experience, they will surely handle the fertilizer problem properly and will not allow the fertilizer to spontaneously combust again.

Xie Juanhan nodded and said to the other races who had gathered around, "We will also clean up the ashes and replant vegetation to minimize the impact of this fire."

See you tomorrow!

Chapter 118 [VIP]

The fire was extinguished, but the entire forest remained blackened by the flames.

Especially in the areas where the flames are most intense.

The flames seemed like some kind of Demonic Beast, greedily devouring everything on the ground that could be consumed.

As far as the eye could see, all was deathly blackness.

Telingewei looked to be in a bad mood; his lips were tightly pursed.

Xie Juanhan and he were patrolling the forest, dealing with the embers that still carried sparks, to prevent the wind from blowing the embers away and sending the sparks flying elsewhere, reigniting the forest fire.

Seeing that Telingewei looked very heavy-hearted, Xie Juanhan put his arm around his shoulder and patted him. "Things aren't that bad."

Telingewei looked up.

Xie Juanhan gestured with his chin, "Look at these trees. The trunks are charred, and the crowns at the top are a bit wilted, but they'll definitely recover in a few days."

Telingewei looked at the treetops and whispered, "The affected area is too large."

Xie Juanhan looked at him and asked, "Has there been no big fire in the forest for a long time?"

Telingewei didn't understand why Xie Juanhan was asking this, and nodded. "The last forest fire was thirteen years ago, when a Demonic Beast breathed fire and set the forest ablaze."

Xie Juanhan: "That's why I said this forest fire was bound to happen."

Xie Juanhan looked up at the treetops and the sky, his gaze distant. "There's a saying in my hometown, 'The moon wanes after it's full,' meaning that things will inevitably change when they reach their peak."

Telingewei's gaze was filled with confusion.

Xie Juanhan pulled him forward. "With so many dead branches and leaves piled up in the forest, the longer the years of safety, the more terrifying the fire will be when it finally ignites. Even the most powerful creatures cannot change this objective law."

"Forest fires not only bring destruction, but also new life."

Xie Juanhan took a handful of seeds from the cloth bag at his waist with his left hand and tossed them around. "We're planting new plants, isn't that a kind of rebirth?"

The heavy feeling in Telingewei's heart quietly dissipated.

Xie Juanhan didn't say much. With both hands full, he simply nuzzled Xie Juanhan's head and said, "Let's go, let's continue patrolling."

Telingewei gripped his hand tightly in return. "After the patrol, shall we go to the Goblin?"

Xie Juanhan: "Okay, help them clear the tunnels."

We need to get to the Goblin early, or they might finish their work quickly.

After patrolling the forest, Xie Juanhan took Telingewei to the Goblin.

They also brought a basket of bread, dragon wine, and Star Berry as an apology.

The Goblin were very uneasy. "Squeak?"

Xie Juanhan squatted down. "It's alright, it's really not your fault, nor is it Telingewei's fault, but he is the Lord of the Forest, so compensation is only right."

The lead Goblin looked up. "Squeak squeak squeak?"

Xie Juanhan: "Yes, we'll need your help to brew fertilizer next. We'll brew it by the river this time. With proper protective measures, it shouldn't catch fire again."

The Goblin nodded vigorously. "Squeak!"

A forest fire broke out, Xie Juanhan and Telingewei were busy with the aftermath for several days.

The cleanup work was finally coming to an end.

That day, Xie Juanhan Telingewei sat cross-legged in the corridor, enjoying the summer breeze and drinking tea.

Harper and the others ran around the Magic Wand Tree in the yard.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei piled up a large amount of calcined Demonic Core powder under the Magic Wand Tree.

The Magic Wand Tree is full of Magic Power and has now grown to over a meter tall, with lush branches and leaves.

Every few days, it will actively spew lava into the stone trough in front of the tree canopy.

However, if Harper and the others provoke it, it won't be so polite and will just spray them with a barrage of Harper.

Harper and the others loved playing this thrilling game, and even Xie Juanhan and Telingewei's attempts to discipline them were to no avail.

Over time, the two dragons could only turn a blind eye to one thing.

Harper and the others are stubborn; they'll play even if they get beaten up.

Rather than letting them play where the two dragons can't see them, it's better to keep them under our noses, at least then we can control them.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei were enjoying the breeze and sipping tea.

A few meters away, Harper and the others were making a great escape from the lava, occasionally letting out sharp "whoosh, whoosh" sounds that sounded like they were panting or laughing.

After running for a long time, Nibote must have gotten tired. Suddenly, he turned around and sneezed loudly into the air.

It also sprayed out snot bubbles.

A huge bubble shimmered in the sunlight, reflecting the scene of the garden.

Xie Juanhan stared at it.

It didn't seem to care at all, sniffed, and kept running.

Achoo, achoo, achoo!

As if infected by Nibote's sneeze, the other little ones also started sneezing one after another.

They didn't seem to notice, sniffed, and continued running.

Because they had been running for quite a while, some of the little ones started panting heavily.

Even the little guy, who wasn't panting, was breathing heavily.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei both frowned.

"Harper," Telingewei called to his Companion Beast.

Xie Juanhan also waved, beckoning Moli and Nibote over.

The little creatures stopped scratching, hesitated for a moment in response to the two dragons' call, and then slowly and reluctantly walked over.

Xie Juanhan grabbed Nibote by the scruff of his neck, pulled him close, and examined him by his head.

This half-grown Griffin not only had a runny nose, but also discharge from its eyes, and its eyeballs looked a bit red.

Xie Juanhan frowned.

He gestured for Moli to come up, and then looked at Moli.

Moli also had a runny nose, her nose was dry and white, and her eyes were also a little red.

Xie Juanhan hugged Moli and pressed his head against its furry chest.

Moli offered no resistance, simply standing there letting him stick to her, even wagging her fluffy tail.
