Chapter 2230

Even though he came to the altar, Xia De still didn't have the courage to step on the altar of the ancient god with both feet.

After he restored to human form from the red butterfly group, his left foot stepped on the altar, and his right leg was kneeling on one knee. Tilting his head slightly, Xia De faced the scorching sun shining down from the roof on the altar, narrowed his eyes and opened his arms in this posture:

"Oh~ Praise the Sun!"

At this moment, all the ladies in the shade of the temple saw the sun gathering towards him as if it were being absorbed by Xia De, which even weakened the reflection on the wall.

The black altar emitted a faint light, but it was not as dazzling as the brilliant sun on Xia De, who was on the altar. He seemed to have turned into a fireball or even the sun, and also seemed to have descended into the mortal world again as the ancient sun god's champion in ancient myths and legends.

Knight Ms. Knight lowered her head and prayed silently, while the blue-haired mermaid girl hid behind Grandmother Synode because she was afraid of the light and heat.

The old elf stared at this scene holding her cane. The long years she had experienced allowed her to witness many things. And Ms. Mest looked at this scene with a smile, and the golden eyes reflected not Xia De, but a golden human figure.

In a trance, even Xia De, who was blinded by the sun, seemed to see a blurry figure in the light smiling back at him.

Finally, the sun faded from Xia De, and he turned back into a group of red butterflies and returned to the ground. Only in that group of red butterflies, many butterflies' wings were clearly plated with a layer of gold, and Xia De, who opened his eyes again, also had a circle of golden light marks in his eyes.

【Outlander, you have received the temporary blessing of the "Desert Burning Sun". You can walk in the sun for a long time, and the power of the sun is temporarily enhanced.】

The effect of the blessing is quite simple, and it only lasts until Xia De leaves this sand sea. Next time he comes, he has to climb the altar and praise the sun again.

And the effect of this blessing, besides what "She" said, actually includes the enhancement of spirit and physical strength recovery, but this effect is not important at all compared to "walking in the sun".

Xia De moved his body, turned his head and swung his arms. The feeling of his whole body at this moment was exceptionally good.

Before climbing the altar, even in the temple, he felt the air was stuffy, and he felt his back sweating even though he was only wearing a thin white shirt on his upper body. But after obtaining this blessing, although he could still keenly feel the ambient temperature and humidity, he felt that such temperature and humidity were very comfortable.

The heat of the Gravel Gold Sand Sea made his whole body warm, and as long as he didn't leave this temple, the livability here was actually not bad.

And when Xia De reached out his hand to the sun again, this time he only felt a slight tingling. This means that Xia De would still feel very hot walking in the sun, but he no longer had to worry about being "melted" by the sun.

So he patted the altar, thanked it softly, and walked towards the four ladies.

The four people had different expressions, and Grandmother Synode was the first to ask:

"What happened just now?"

"I received a short-term blessing from the sun, and I can move freely in the desert outside within half an hour without worrying about being hurt by the sun."

The old elf showed a surprised expression, and the blue-haired mermaid girl and the female knight were also very happy.

Ms. Mest, who had healthy light brown skin, said with a smile:

"Since this is the case, can we go out now? In an exploration not long ago, we found a ruin of a temple building complex not far from here. Although there are places to shade there, it is too narrow and not a closed environment, so we didn't search carefully at that time."

"Okay, in which direction? How far is it roughly?"

Xia De roughly knew what he was doing in this desert, but the four ladies didn't point out the direction to him:

"This desert has strange spatial confusion characteristics. Even if the road is pointed out to you, you won't find it. Only those who have walked it once can take you there."

Grandmother Synode said, looking at the other three:

"Every time we go out, we go in pairs. The last time we went to that temple ruin was..."

"It was me."

Ms. Mest pointed at herself. Xia De didn't look at the parts she pointed at. The desert dancer was dressed very coolly, but correspondingly, the fabric of her whole body added up to probably less than the fabric on the wide-brimmed big hat that witches like to wear. He didn't dare to look carefully just now, but this time he found that this lady didn't even wear shoes, but stood directly on the ground with bare feet.

"Who was the other one?"

The old elf asked confusedly again, so the blue-haired mermaid girl checked the notebook:

"And you, grandmother."

"But it's still daytime, I can go out, what should you do?"

Xia De raised his question, Ms. Mest shook her head with a smile:

"It doesn't matter, it's not far from this temple, we can reach it within fifteen minutes if we walk fast. And, we have other ways to extend the time we can endure direct sunlight."

Methods like holding a wooden board to create shade don't work, only special buildings like temples can resist sunlight.

After Ms. Mest finished speaking, Grandmother Synode said;

"I have a relic that can let me walk outside for a little longer."

The 【Youth Eternal Ye Zi】 she took out from the small book in her pocket was clearly a bit withered and yellow. Xia De had never seen this phenomenon. His leaves were either consumed or always in a green state. Looking at it this way, using leaves to resist sunlight would consume the power of the 【Youth Eternal Ye Zi】 itself.

The mermaid girl also raised her hand and said:

"I also brought good things before going out. Although I can't help me survive in the sun all the time, it should be no problem for short-term activities."

She took off the pearl on her right ear, put it in her palm and blew it gently. The pearl expanded and finally turned into a transparent round glass helmet.

Ordinary person Ms. Knight had nothing, so she didn't speak.

Ms. Mest reached out and picked up the pearl of Ms. Sander, and then said to Xia De:

"Mr. Hamilton, I will follow you, this pearl should be enough.

Grandmother Synode, please take your relic to meet us twenty minutes after we set off to prevent us from not finding the way back.

Don't look at the clock, and don't count down. Confused time makes these useless. Trust your intuition, and when you feel it's about time, go meet us."

The old elf actually originally wanted to go out with Xia De herself, but seeing Ms. Mest take the task actively, she didn't object:

"Okay, children, be sure to be careful. Rather than bringing nothing back, you two must come back."

Ms. Knight helped the two pack up the supplies that might be used, which were water bottles and some food that was easy to carry. After preparing, the two didn't delay time and set off immediately.

The three who stayed behind looked at them going away worriedly at the door, no one knew what they would encounter.

And for Xia De, who came to the sun again, although the scorching heat still existed, it would no longer affect his normal activities.

He was still wearing that white shirt on his upper body, with his sleeves rolled up. His shoes and socks were also taken off by him, he was worried that his soles would soon have problems. And stepping barefoot on the sand that looked like gold, he just felt warm.

Narrowing his eyes to let himself adapt to the dazzling sun, turning around to confirm that the small temple behind him was gradually moving away, only then did Xia De look at the lady walking with him.

The light brown skin looked even more charming in the sun. Xia De could endure this environment but was still sweating profusely, but there was no sweat at all on the brown skin of Ms. Mest.

Of course, Xia De didn't dare to look carefully at this lady who just stuffed the pearl into her chest and didn't actually use the relic. Confirming that the distance from the temple was far enough, he nodded slightly and said softly:

"Greetings to you, God of Mist."

Ms. Mest looked at him:

"Is it because of the language that you know me? Hello, outlander who came from afar through the fog."

The 【Corridor of Time】 is filled with white fog, so Xia De did indeed come from the fog.

As for the god walking with him at this moment, Xia De guessed that this "light brown skin desert dancer" appearance should be a saint form. This god hid very well. If he didn't expose his identity actively, Xia De would probably have to guess for a while.

When he was adventuring with Miss Feilian and Miss Orlandon in the Thousand Tree Forest, he didn't know that the "Giant Tree Witch" was the old god "Radiant Door" until the end.

The sun was so strong that even evil spirits and other creatures couldn't survive, so no monsters appeared near the ruins. After Xia De followed the god and walked close, he found that it was an extremely standard temple building complex.

In the third-year course of St. Byrons, there were courses related to ancient architecture, especially temple architecture. Xia De simply identified it and recognized the location of the main hall and the entrance.

The god didn't mean to stand on the side and let Xia De find clues by himself. After entering the ruins, He was still leading the way. After the two walked to the core position of the ruins, which was the position of the main hall of the temple, He stopped, lifted his foot, and then gently pointed at the sand like gold grains with his right big toe:

"When I came here with the elf last time, she found something under here."

Saying this, he stepped back two steps. Xia De nodded, closed his eyes and sensed the space, and after confirming that there was no big hole under this ruin, he summoned the "Moonlight Greatsword" again and dug in the sand with that sword.

Soon, half a stone tablet covered by yellow sand appeared in front of Xia De. He squatted down and carefully cleaned the stone tablet from the sand, tried to see if 【Toy Manufacturing】 was useful to it, and turned it into a toy, intending to interpret it after returning to the temple.

"And over here."
