A young man from another world returned to his hometown.

Chapter 63 Forest Fire, Emergency Moment

The two stumbled and shoved each other as they rolled down the mountain path, finally plunging into a muddy ditch at the foot of the mountain with two thuds as they fell to the ground.

The two lay on the ground, panting heavily, their hands and feet trembling, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"Th-th-what is that...?"

"How the hell should I know?!"

The two remained silent for a moment.

Uncle Liu shakily pulled out his phone, but in the end, he put it back in his pocket.

Call the police?

Why bother calling the police?

What were he and Zhou Derong up to? When the police arrived, they would arrest the two of them first. Uncle Liu's mind raced.

"Don't tell anyone about the monster."

He whispered to Zhou Derong, who paused for a moment, then nodded.

"No one would believe me even if I told them."

Having already made some money, the two exchanged a glance and walked towards the village without saying a word.

……

On the mountaintop, Nia was still angry.

"It stinks...it stinks!!!"

She stomped her feet in anger, smashing the furnace with her huge dragon feet. But she still had a lot of anger to vent.

The little fish died, her skirt got dirty, she was woken up by the smell, and she didn't even get breakfast! The more Nia thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and the more aggrieved she felt, the more she thought about it.

So she tilted her head back.

"call!!!"

A dragon flame, even larger and hotter than before, accompanied by billowing smoke.

After spraying that mouthful, Nia finally felt a little better.

"snort!!"

She turned and flapped her wings, flying back into the depths of the back mountain.

"Miki!!! Let's go fishing further out today!!!"

……

Niushi Ridge Village.

Old Chen, a recipient of the "Five Guarantees" (a government welfare program for the elderly, disabled, and orphans), was working in the field when he suddenly heard a loud bang coming from the direction of the back mountain.

He looked up, paused for two seconds, and then...

"Hello! Hello! Is this the police station?! There's a fire on the back mountain!! There's been an explosion on the back mountain!!!"

Aunt Li from next door ran out, looked around, and quickly took out her phone as well.

"Is this 119?!"

Before long, the elderly men and women in the village had gathered together, pointing and talking about the back mountain.

……

Meanwhile, the official town national highway.

A girl was live-streaming her trip with her phone when a chorus of exclamations suddenly erupted behind her.

"Oh my god! What is that?!"

"Fire! There's fire in the distance!"

Xiaoyou paused for a moment, then instinctively turned her phone away.

At the end of the national highway, on the mountain to the right, a pillar of fire shot into the sky. Although it was far away, the pillar of fire could still be seen, and the outline of a dragon could be vaguely seen in the thick smoke.

Xiaoyou's phone recorded the entire scene during those few seconds of her stunned silence.

In the live stream, the numbers were jumping around rapidly.

The screen was flooded with comments.

Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!

What is that?!

I just saw wings!

"What...what did I just see?!"

……

Xiaoyou's live stream clips were quickly uploaded to various video platforms.

The titles vary, but they all mention the appearance of monsters.

Within an hour, the number of views exceeded one million.

In the comments section, netizens have split into several camps and are arguing fiercely.

The hashtag "monster" has climbed to the top of the trending topics list on short video platforms at a visible speed.

……

In the remote seaside villa, the huge floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the waves and the beach.

Lin Yan and Xi Er were on vacation, with Lin Yan fast asleep.

An elf's ear peeked out from under the covers, twitched, and then withdrew.

Syl lifted her head from the pillow, groggily glanced at the sky outside, pulled Lin Yan's arm toward her, and closed her eyes again.

Lin Yan turned over and pulled Xier back into his arms.

……

……

?

...?

!

! !

"Wait a minute? Something feels off!"

Lin Yan jumped up from the bed.

An extremely violent surge of magical energy emanated from afar.

and……

It's so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar.

"Huh?"

Startled awake by Lin Yan's movement, Xier rubbed her eyes, her ears perked up instantly, and the next second, all the sleepiness on Xier's face vanished.

"Lin Yan, this aura..."

"I know."

The two exchanged a glance.

Almost simultaneously, the same image of pink hair and a small dragon horn appeared in my mind.

"Nia!"

The two voices rang out at the same time.

Then Lin Yan stiffly collapsed onto the bed. Tonight, he had planned to see Xier in her new swimsuit, but...

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

Lin Yan clutched his head and let out a wail from the depths of his soul.

"I've been so busy since I got back, my vacation! My fairy wife who just changed into her swimsuit! It's all gone!!!"

Syl's face flushed red instantly.

"Stop yelling!"

She reached out and covered Lin Yan's mouth.

"Is this the time to say things like that?!"

"That brat! She's crossed over into another field! She actually came from another industry!!"

Lin Yan continued to wail while holding Xier's little hand.

"No wonder the dean hasn't sent me my report card lately! Something was off! That pink-haired little devil! She must have gotten into trouble!"

Syl bit her lower lip, forgetting all about being shy, and quickly jumped off the bed.

"Let's go check it out, honey! Hurry!"

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Lin Yan then came to his senses and quickly put on his pants.

Then he reached out, preparing to tear through space, but...

"Damn... I'm running out of magic."

Lin Yan gritted his teeth and took out a fist-sized magic crystal from his pocket.

"My poor magic crystal."

He crushed the magic crystal while feeling a pang of heartache, and a surge of powerful magic instantly flowed into his body.

"Syl, hold on tight to me!"

She immediately pressed herself against him, wrapping her arms around Lin Yan's waist from behind. Although the situation was urgent, she couldn't help but blush the moment she put her arms around him.

Lin Yan took a deep breath, channeled his magic, and a rift opened in space. The two of them instantly disappeared from the seaside villa.

……

Niushi Ridge, at the foot of the mountain.

Emergency sirens were already blaring.

The national highway was lined with police cars and fire trucks that had been urgently dispatched from the county seat.

Some comrades are maintaining order, while others are working diligently in groups to conduct search and rescue operations.

"Captain! The fire is still spreading!"

"Here it comes! Spray water! Pressurize!"

"Have the surrounding villagers been evacuated?!"

"The evacuation is complete! But we still need to check if there are any people trapped on the mountain!"

The captain's face was grim. Niushi Ridge was a desolate place, so who would have thought that such a big fire would suddenly break out there? Moreover, the fire trucks couldn't even get into the actual burning area on the mountain; they could only set up some firebreaks around the perimeter.

Moreover, when the people were communicating, they said they saw pillars of fire shooting into the sky, and they also vaguely saw monsters...

The captain shook his head. Country folk talk in a mysterious way; he was probably just seeing things.

"Xiao Zhang! Take a team and search that area halfway up the mountain!"

"yes!"

Young firefighter Zhang Ming responded and, along with two other team members, headed towards the mountainside.
