38: Chapter 38 Death Desert 21

Seeing everyone looking at him, the yellow-haired youth was quite embarrassed and annoyed: "What does that mean? What kind of looks are those? Can't I even ask?"

Lady Ba didn't mind, her face still bearing a kind smile. "You don't need to worry about that. Over the years, I have used my divine power to reweave a Rainbow Feather Garment from the moss and water grass here."

She waved her hand, and a glowing cyan garment appeared in it. The fabric of the clothing looked truly magical; it wasn't silk, yet it was smoother than silk; it wasn't cotton, yet it was softer than cotton. It was truly a heavenly garment!

Camo Uncle didn't actually care whether Lady Ba had prepared some heavenly garment; he was more concerned with the game mission. He asked, "Then how should we retrieve the eye of the desert? Do we just climb up and knock open the heart area?"

"No, this stone statue cannot be damaged by human hands." Lady Ba smiled somewhat helplessly. "Otherwise, I would have already successfully broken the seal."

As she spoke, she turned her right hand, and a pair of cyan gloves appeared in it. "These are the leftover materials from when I wove the cyan garment, which I turned into gloves. If you wear these gloves and climb to the heart of the stone statue, you will be able to directly retrieve the eye of the desert."

After speaking, she held up the gloves and looked at the group, waiting for the players to choose who would take them.

Camo Uncle and the yellow-haired youth immediately looked at Luo Yuejian and Wolf-tail Guy, and even Lady Ba looked over.

Luo Yuejian: ?

Why look at her? That stone statue was so high; even if it wasn't impossible to climb due to time and water vapor Corrosion, it wasn't something a weak woman like her, who couldn't even truss a chicken, could climb! Thus, Luo Yuejian followed suit and looked at Wolf-tail Guy.

Kid, it's up to you!

Seeing this, the audience in the livestream room also burst into laughter.

[I'm dying of laughter, fam. My Yue just shifted the blame directly in this move.]

[My Yue: I don't do the dirty work.]

[Cracking up, Moon Goddess contributed a highlight moment to Wolf-tail Guy.]

[Wolf-tail Guy: Should I thank you?]

[Lady Ba is too miserable. Who knows who was so wicked to steal her clothes?]

[That Yellow Emperor isn't a good person either. He promised to help Lady Ba find her clothes, but then he ran off without a trace.]

[I suddenly have a guess. Could it be that the Yellow Emperor stole Lady Ba's clothes?]

[No way, that would be too sinful...]

[Where is the Yellow Emperor's Star Net account?]

Wolf-tail Guy didn't say anything; he took the gloves and put them on. Afterward, his whole body was like an agile Blue Sheep, moving swiftly as he Climbing the stone statue, darting several meters up in just a few movements.

The yellow-haired youth below looked up, quite shocked. "What did this guy do before coming to this game? An extreme athlete? What's the difference between this speed of Climbing the stone statue and a monkey?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the back of his head was immediately hit. Camo Uncle rolled his eyes. "If you don't know how to speak, then don't. This is the golden thigh of our team; we might have to rely on him to clear the level later."

Hearing this, Luo Yuejian also agreed wholeheartedly, thinking that great minds really do think alike, and couldn't help but glance at Camo Uncle. Who would have thought that this glance would directly make Camo Uncle break into a cold sweat.

Camo Uncle thought it was bad; he had been so busy praising Wolf-tail Guy that he had forgotten there was an even more mysterious big shot in the team. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and banking on the fact that Wolf-tail Guy couldn't hear him, he hurriedly added, "Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? If you went, you would definitely not be inferior to Wolf-tail Guy."

Luo Yuejian: ? Don't set me up!

Withdrawing her gaze, she pretended not to hear that sentence. Camo Uncle, who was on the side, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that this hurdle was over and he would have to be careful when speaking next time.

As they spoke, Wolf-tail Guy's figure had already approached the heart of the stone statue, until he stood firm in a groove on the chest of the stone statue. As the distance increased, the people below looked at Wolf-tail Guy as if they were looking at a bird flying in the sky; they could only barely make out a small dot glowing with a faint cyan light there.

Wolf-tail Guy looked at the cyan glow covering his hands, his eyes fluctuating a few times before finally settling into calmness. He placed his hands on the heart of the goddess statue, wanting to penetrate the stone wall to get the eye of the desert, but to his surprise, his hands could not go any further. A white light blocked him, and traces of chains could be faintly seen flowing within the white light.

He couldn't help but frown, pondered for a moment, and then returned the way he came.

The people below waited and waited, and finally, when Wolf-tail Guy came down, they hurriedly surrounded him. Lady Ba walked over, but not sensing the aura of the eye of the desert, she couldn't help frowning, her tone also a bit cold. "What's going on? Where is the eye of the desert?"

Wolf-tail Guy looked at her with cold eyes. "I can't penetrate the stone wall."

"How is that possible!" Lady Ba almost screamed, her face somewhat distorted, looking quite terrifying. "The seal has clearly already... How can you not be able to retrieve it?!"

Her loss of composure made the few players feel a bit alarmed, feeling that something was wrong. But thinking that Lady Ba had been trapped here for thousands of years and finally had a chance to leave, only for something to go wrong at a critical moment, they felt that Lady Ba's appearance was understandable.

Lady Ba muttered to herself for a while, her expression changing several times. Finally, she gritted her teeth, a ferocious look appearing on her soft and beautiful face, and then she suddenly turned and walked to the lakeside, jumping directly into the lake.

The yellow-haired youth was stunned. "What's the situation? Did she jump into the lake to commit suicide because she couldn't think straight?"

As he said this, wanting to look a bit cooler, he put his hands in his pockets, but suddenly touched something. He took the thing out of his pocket and discovered that it was actually the "fire poker" he had picked up from the dark cave earlier.

At this moment, looking at it under the light, he finally realized that it wasn't a fire poker at all, but a staff that looked very ancient but was engraved with patterns.

"What is this?" The yellow-haired youth scratched his head. "It looks pretty high-end. Could it be some kind of item?"

Camo Uncle's eyes lit up, knowing that this thing was definitely an important item. A gleam flashed in his eyes, and he wanted to take the staff from the yellow-haired youth's hand. As a result, the yellow-haired youth was suddenly sharp for once, keenly dodging Camo Uncle's hand, and asked vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

Camo Uncle's expression was natural, as if he didn't understand why the yellow-haired youth was so vigilant, and patiently explained, "This staff is obviously very important, right? Look at you, you're so careless; what if you lose it? I just want to help you hold it, so you don't have to worry if you lose it later."

His expression was very sincere when he spoke, but the yellow-haired youth always felt it was a bit strange and didn't want to hand the staff over to Camo Uncle. However, one thing Camo Uncle said just now was right, which was that he was indeed very careless; if he really lost it, it would be a huge sin.

Thinking of this, his gaze looked at the other two people, then naturally skipped over Wolf-tail Guy, and handed the staff to Luo Yuejian, solemnly saying, "Big shot, I'll leave this staff to you. You must protect it well!"

Luo Yuejian: ?
