Chapter 194: Chupa Chups (Part 2)
Spicy Flavor Fairy replied, "We've found it to be okay so far, not too dangerous."
This seemed to strike a chord with Radolf.
He sighed and said, "Indeed, the only real danger comes from those brutish demons. They can't tell friend from foe—just a bunch of mindless beasts."
Spicy Flavor Fairy discreetly gathered some information: it turns out the Order of the Shattering Lights doesn't get along perfectly with the demons.
They also fear of them.
As Radolf mentioned, avoiding the demons makes staying in the Abyss Zone easier, as long as you avoid eating anything from the zone.
Spicy Flavor Fairy continued the conversation.
Radolf added, "We don't know how long we'll be able to last this time."
Spicy Flavor Fairy tentatively asked, "How many times have you come to the Abyss Zone?"
Radolf proudly said, "This is my fifth time. Some of my friends have been here ten times already."
It was surprising how obsessed these people were with seeing the God of Darkness.
Spicy Flavor Fairy felt a mix of emotions—admiring their determination while also feeling somewhat conflicted.
"And you guys?" Radolf asked.
Spicy Flavor Fairy replied, "This is our first time here, so we don't have much experience."
Radolf waved his hand confidently, "Don't worry, just stick with us. We have plenty of experience."
Spicy Flavor Fairy nodded, "We've brought enough water and food, so we should be fine."
Radolf was pleased, "It seems you're well-prepared. In the Abyss Zone, you can't eat anything you find. Besides, except for clear days, the weather here is very dangerous and not suitable for travel."
Spicy Flavor Fairy had already heard from Hanjun and was prepared with many supplies.
They had also tested using Light-type magic to purify water, so they could manage for now.
Radolf added, "Last time I lasted ten days before I had to return. I hope we can stay a bit longer this time."
Spicy Flavor Fairy thought to himself but kept a neutral expression and agreed.
They also wanted to achieve their goal.
Radolf suggested, "Let's rest here for a bit, then we should get moving. I see it's going to rain soon. There's a cave not far ahead where we can take shelter."
Everything related to humans in the Abyss Zone had been destroyed by the demons, so they had to hide in the cave.
But having a place to shelter was already quite good.
After Radolf finished speaking, Hanjun stood up and said to the players, "Let's follow them then."
Spicy Flavor Fairy reluctantly glanced at the Hanjun but had to follow his lead and go with Radolf.
It seemed like Radolf and his group were convinced that no one else would come to the Abyss Zone.
They completely believed Spicy Flavor Fairy and his group's story and were very helpful and friendly along the way.
However, Spicy Flavor Fairy and the others couldn't be happy, knowing that the Order of the Shattering Light had sent assassins to kill Hanjun.
Spicy Flavor Fairy and the others rode horses, following Radolf, and after more than an hour, they finally found the cave Radolf had mentioned.
At the same time, the Abyss Zone was covered with thick clouds, and the sun disappeared.
Just as Radolf had said, it was about to rain.
Spicy Flavor Fairy and his group didn't understand why the rain in the Abyss Zone was so frightening.
Until the rain poured down in torrents, making a hissing sound on the ground, and Master PungPong, who had tried to test it with his hands, quickly pulled them back.
He thought, this rain was really terrifying!
Radolf, seeing Master PungPong's reaction, seemed to be reminded of himself and laughed happily, "This is the Abyss Zone's rain, which has some corrosive properties. I heard that a high-level demon general used a forbidden spell to corrupt the space, which caused this special environment."
The impact of a forbidden spell on the area was so big?
Master PungPong instinctively shrank his shoulders.
He thought about how they would have experienced the corrosive rain's effects if they hadn't met Radolf.
[ So, it's a good thing we followed Radolf! This must be part of the plot! ]
As the boss of the game company and the God of Light, Hanjun just smiled and stayed silent.
Master PungPong no longer dared to question Hanjun's decisions and asked, "When will this rain stop?"
Radolf said, "It might stop soon, or it might last a day. I can't say for sure."
Master PungPong blurted out, "If it rains for three or four days, won't we have to turn back?"
Radolf shrugged, "That's a possibility. It's a challenge given to us by our Lord, and if we can't meet it, then so be it."
From his words, it was clear that he deeply worshipped the God of Darkness, and so did his friends.
Master PungPong had nothing to say about their beliefs, but they were not there for that reason and couldn't give up halfway.
He eagerly hoped the rain would stop soon.
Maybe the heavens heard his wish.
After raining all through noon, the rain finally stopped.
As the dark clouds cleared, the sun's rays spread out.
This signaled that it probably wouldn't rain again for a while.
Radolf immediately called to his companions to prepare to set out.
However, unlike Master PungPong and his group, Radolf and his team didn't have any transportation, so they moved much slower on foot.
Radolf explained, "In the Abyss Zone, there isn't enough food for horses. If we bring food, the extra weight is too much. If we don't bring food, the horses won't last long before we have to abandon them. It's easier to just walk."
Then he thought for a moment and added, "But I just realized that bringing horses might not be a bad idea after all."
He looked at the large horses next to Master PungPong and said, "I didn't think of that. They could serve as backup food, and they haven't been contaminated by the Abyss Zone yet."
