Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!
Chapter 250: D87. Daughter of the Water Stream_2

Chapter 250: D87. Daughter of the Water Stream_2

The blessing of Phoenix’s birth allowed many magic creatures to cross thresholds they might never surpass in their lifetimes.

However, these were merely digressions to the pair—one human, one snake—hurriedly making their way at this moment.

"We need to cross this area and the volcanic region before the sun sets."

The Hero spoke with determination, quickening her pace towards the dark mountains in the distance.

Even though they were far away, she could still see the mushroom cloud formed by the poison fog at the end of her sight, the oppressive force of it making the Hero swallow her saliva, only to feel an even drier throat.

Of course, she had no intention to charge directly into the poison cloud, after all, the words of the Water Mirror Crane King were right—the area covered by the poison fog was vast, but its spread was slow, at least the area near the edge of the volcano should still be safe.

Moreover, she was stronger during the day than at night.

The sunlight bathing her and the continuous surge of magic power from her finger claw instinctively let her understand this.

Now, at the zenith of the day with the sun hanging high, both her magic power and physical strength were at their peak; but once night fell, not only would the temperature plummet, but the magic power activated by the sunlight would weaken, and more importantly, the magic creatures from the darkness would undoubtedly become more ferocious.

Thus, she decided to make the most of this time and pass through this region in one go.

[Distance to passing the Forbidden Melting Peak—(after a successful Hero’s Luck determination, travel distance is Agility/10=6)]

D10+1=d10(6)+1=7

The Hero walked on the scorching mountain path, the thick soles of her shoes barely insulating against the intense surface heat.

Although the snake-shaped hairpin held her hair up, the nape of her neck was still unusually hot, and she flicked her ponytail uncomfortably, hoping to cool off that patch of skin a bit.

At this moment, she still maintained the Snake Maiden Transformation, and although she didn’t sweat profusely due to the heat, that didn’t mean she could ignore the toll of the high temperature.

The scenery in front appeared to twist and sway under the high temperature, and although it didn’t disorient her as much as the Fog Stone Forest, it was hard to accurately determine the distance to her destination by sight.

Nevertheless, despite the more severe conditions here than the Fog Stone Forest, the Hero felt increasingly invigorated as she walked.

[Hero’s Magic Power +316, Beast Spirit Magic Power: 1484/2000]

[Due to one of her base forms upgrading to Rank3, Serpent Queen of the Woodlands gains an additional skill (body part from top to bottom; decision on nature of skill)]

D100=d100(51)=51

Since the anomalous transformation of her foam form, this was the first time the Hero used the Serpent Queen of the Woodlands Transformation, which was based on the fusion of two forms, and also the first time maintaining the Fusion Avatar for such a long duration.

When her Green Snake form successfully evolved into the Emerald Python in her hometown, the Serpent Queen of the Woodlands also underwent a strengthening due to the sublimation of magic power.

And unlike the pure form evolution of the Green Snake, the phantom spirit form that fortuitously mutated seemed to require more time to perfectly integrate into the Fusion Avatar.

However, after the Hero used it for a long time, the Serpent Queen of the Woodlands finally accommodated that special magic power, with the power of the Radiant Illusion Spirit slowly converging at the center of her abdomen, then manifesting in the appearance of the Serpent Queen of the Woodlands, creating a unique transformation.

[Hero’s Luck (5+)]

D10=d10(4)=4

Although her physical strength was still abundant, as the saying goes, even a strong bird can die from flying too long; after walking half a day on the dark and dreary mountainous terrain of Forbidden Melting Peak, the Hero was becoming worried.

However, she was currently sustaining the Transformation of the Snake Maiden, which made her travel speed much faster than usual. As long as nothing unexpected happened, she should be able to pass through this area before nightfall.

Although continuous travel could make one hungry, she still had some unburnt dry food in her backpack, and she could conjure water with Magic—even though in such a hot place, this would consume more Magic Power, she still possessed the Finger Claw that continually converted heat into Magic Power.

As long as nothing unexpected happened...

However, things don’t always go as wished.

Despite the harsh environment of the Forbidden Melting Peak, it wasn’t a place devoid of life, and the inherent Magic Element here could itself form threats.

Just as the Hero planned to eat something and take a short break, those malevolent beings unexpectedly appeared.
