Chapter 266 Portal
The beasts and monsters in the forest were actually very sensitive. They could sense that Aldea was not someone to be trifled with, so as long as they didn't cross her bottom line, they would generally not come and cause trouble.

But long-term nervous tension is still tiring, and the physical exertion of walking through the woods should not be underestimated.

As the person with the most adventure experience, the dwarf Drerg saw that the others were already exhausted, and even Orde herself was using a potion to restore her strength.

He was about to suggest taking a break when he saw Oldie gesture to stop.

Then she raised her staff inlaid with a huge blue gem, and a layer of magical aura that was leaping like breathing continued to shrink.

"What is the professor doing?"

"Probably confirming the location."

"Shh, don't say anything."

The whispers of the three people had no effect on Aldea. After a few seconds, she put down her staff:

"We're almost there."

This was good news. The three of them had long been tired of the unchanging trees around them. But for some reason, Aldee suddenly rubbed her ears, as if someone had just shouted in her ears.

Alde had been to this forest before to do field research, so she was able to use mass teleportation to bring people here, but she didn't go too deep at that time.

She waved her staff and a ball of light floated in front of her, as if leading the way.

Everyone followed the ball of light and walked for about ten minutes. Then they heard the sound of water splashing. They continued walking forward and a small waterfall about ten meters high appeared in front of them.

A group of glowing fireflies scattered when they sensed the approach of people, and Alde pointed to the waterfall.

"The place to find is behind the waterfall, bring the necessities."

Upon hearing this, the three men immediately untied their backpacks, threw away their heavy baggage and hid them, carrying only the necessary supplies.

After some preparation, the few of them followed the wet rock wall on one side of the waterfall and slowly made their way to the back of the waterfall.

Under the water curtain, you can see a dark hole. When the cold light of magic shines into it, a few frogs croak and run away.

The cave is not very deep, and the end is about seven or eight meters away.

There are several large holes on the left and right sides leading to the surface. The moon, which has already moved to the west, casts its cold moonlight into the caves.

"There's no treasure in here."

"Mud, rotting leaves and animal remains, that's all."

The halfling cleric Perrin and the tiefling rogue Nemia were disappointed.

"Don't worry, look at Professor Alday, she hasn't given up."

Following Drager's carrot-like fingers, Alde was standing in the center of the cave. She would look at the position of the moon from time to time, and tap the ground with her staff from time to time as she walked.

"Found it, here."

Orde waved her staff and a whirlwind suddenly appeared, sweeping away the dead branches, leaves and debris on the ground.

At this time, with the help of moonlight, everyone could see clearly that there was a very regular round stone slab on the ground, so regular that it did not look like a natural product at all.

Several lines that have become blurred are vaguely visible on the stone slab, and it is difficult to see them clearly even if you lie on the stone slab.

"Stand by me, we are going in."

Nimia just stood still and said in confusion:

"Into? Into where?"

At this time, Orday knocked on the stone slab with her staff, and the three were surprised to find a layer of fine blue light moving rapidly along the blurred lines on the stone slab, as if it was repainted and outlined, and in the blink of an eye it covered the entire stone slab.

Then they felt a flash before their eyes and couldn't help but close their eyes.

A slight feeling of dizziness appeared in everyone's head. This feeling was not unfamiliar. It was a side effect of teleportation.

About two or three seconds later, everyone who had their eyes closed suddenly felt their skin tighten, and a strange whistling sound of strong wind rang in their ears, and the sharp cold wind cut through their skin like a knife.

When he opened his eyes, he saw an almost endless snowfield. "Where is this place?"

The snowfield shrouded in darkness was quiet and terrifying, but it gave people an extremely unreal feeling. Most of the sky was covered by dark clouds, but the floating aurora could be seen propping up everyone's eyelids.

"Don't let your eyes deceive you. We are underground. In an area not recorded on the map."

Auldai rubbed her ears again, and looked around with her ice-blue pupils:
"What we are about to enter next is a relic that has existed since the mythological era. I know nothing about the dangers ahead, but I know that we should head towards the aurora."

Tieflin Nemia shrank his neck, and suddenly felt that he should not have accepted this commission...

–‐‐——–‐‐——

"Really... Oh shit, you won't listen to advice!"

All of Oldie's actions appeared on the screen in detail. Li Chengxi asked Oldie to go back, but the girl acted as if she didn't hear him and insisted on coming in to see what he said.

Although the Demon King's Ring is very important to the Demon King, it is very dangerous to run there rashly.

The last time Olde came, Li Chengxi said that they should not look for the Demon King's Ring until they could ensure their safety. At least they should wait until Viola restored her country and had more sufficient manpower, financial resources and other support.

According to legend, the Demon King's Ring was stolen by the seven apostles of the Demon King at that time and sealed up separately.

And Alde also noticed that there was a mysterious organization or individual active behind the Demon Kingdom, who might be the descendant of the Seven Apostles.

In order to prevent the Demon King from regaining his power, they will certainly deploy tight defenses at the place where the Demon King's Ring is kept.

Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, it would be unwise to rush over rashly.

As a result, Oldie actually ran away quietly, and Li Chengxi felt his blood pressure soaring.

I kind of understand why Viola often says that Oldie's desire to research is too strong. She knew there was clues to the Demon King's Ring but she didn't look for it. Oldie felt like she was being scratched by a cat and couldn't hold it back.

"What happened?"

Adas couldn't see what was happening on the screen. She only saw Li Chengxi pick up the microphone and say a few words excitedly.

"In short, there was a believer who was disobedient."

"There is nothing we can do about this. Even if we are gods, we cannot control the free will of mortals."

This is different from playing a business simulation game where you can tell the NPC to move however they want. Everyone has different ideas.

"You should guide the behavior of believers, not manipulate them."

"I just felt my blood pressure rising..."

I really wanted to pull Oldie out and pinch her face hard.

"It's useless to be angry. For example, I often tell believers that life is precious and peace is the most important thing, but this also makes believers of other gods say that my believers are a bunch of cowards. I am also very angry."

In addition to her ministry as a spring god, Aidas is also the goddess of peace.

So her followers, apart from the druids, are a group of pacifists.

"There will always be times when we can't escape, right? Like the time with the Plague Goddess."

Adas scratched her head embarrassedly and said:
"In fact, if you hadn't helped me in the Spring Forest, I would have been looking for a place for the believers to settle down."

"Have you ever thought about getting your revenge?"

"I am also the goddess of peace. I am willing to use any means to protect my believers, but..."

"Don't you dare to confront the Plague Goddess head-on?"

"Uh... almost."

Adas became timid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
