"Ugh, why is this place both HUMID and HOT?! And it's swarming with mosquitoes that aren't afraid of biting us! We're literal gods and they dare bite us anyways!"
Yuki was complaining as we made our way through an enormous jungle, filled with green and red colored vegetation growing everywhere, the sun was strong as usual in the Muspelheim continent, and we were being surrounded by a swarm of mosquitoes.
I had already conjured an aura of cold, but these mosquitoes weren't normal kind, they were Super Mosquitoes capable of resisting trendous changes in temperature, and could perhaps be the strongest bugs we've found, yet too small for to catch easily.
"Just bear with it, don't you have hair all over your body? Can't they block the bites?" I sighed, drinking from a bottle full of water with ice cubes.
"Not as good as your scales!" Yuki cried, sighing.
"Co on now, it's not so bad!" Surtr laughed, walking besides .
"Ugh, it certainly is hot and humid in this area. So this is the Southern Part of the Continent, huh? It is closer to the Vanaheim Continent, so their rainforest weather mixes with the volcanic one here, creating an even hotter rainforest." Benladann said. "Is it like that, Pekora?"
"Kind of." Said Pekora. "Because each Continent used to be a Realm of their own, each one has their own pseudo atmosphere with their certain weathers. We usually don't go through extre weather changes like Midgard in most continents. But because they're close to one another, the atmospheres of each continent affect the other continents at their corners, creating these combination of weathers. The sa that happened in the coasts of Jotunheim where there wasn't any snow and it was a nice diterranean weather."
"Damn you know a lot about these things." Tisha said. "Ugh… Wait, does that ans that if we go to the area closer to Niflheim, will it get into a better temperature?"
"Maybe…" Pekora said. "It could get less hot… I think, perhaps. Anyways, why are we here? We landed here an hour ago now…"
"We've co here looking for the last tower, should be over there, but the vegetation is so big that it makes it hard to see with the eyes." I sighed, flying into the skies to see. "Yep, it's right in front of us, let's keep moving."
"Can't we just FLY?!" Yuki asked angrily.
"No, we're also looking for sothing else here." I said. "Well, you could try flying, but last ti I checked you couldn't really fly well."
"Ugh shut up, SHUT UP!" Yuki was insufferable due to the heat.
["It should be close… Maybe a bit to the left? I can sense its presence, but it is enclosed into sothing. Not the tower though."]
"Hmm, we're getting closer to where it is." I sighed.
BBZZTT…!
Suddenly, a huge mosquito the size of my thumb sat on my shoulder and then tried to pierce my scales, failing miserably as its proboscis broke.
"Grryyhh…"
It gave out a pitiful scream of agony before shrieking and flying away. I guess there are so benefits in being a scaled guy, even without turning into a full dragon.I think you should take a look at
"Ugh, the heat in here is worse because, like, it's not dry?" Miranda wondered. "And being preggers is making feel all dizzy now…"
"Just stay inside the Divine Realm for now, I told you not to co out." I sighed, crossing my arms. "Even Benladann had to wait, you know?"
"I know… But I wanna have adventurers too anyways." Miranda said, sitting over my shoulder, she was small enough to do that. "Don't worry big guy, your wife's fine~ Aren't you too worried?"
"I'm just being normally worried for my wife." I sighed.
"She really likes calling herself a wife. She's loving it." Benladann laughed. "Did you always wanted to be his wife?"
"S-Shut it!" Miranda suddenly blushed. "A-Anyways, I can feel sothing… My Mold Roots are spreading around, sothing's moving to the left, a lot of living beings. Small. Not divine beasts. Monsters? Maybe… or sothing else."
"Can't you bring Aegir to pour us so fresh, icy water?" Yuki asked .
"She's been having a hangover for a few days so she's resting now inside the ring, let her be." I sighed. "Anyways, Miranda, where was it?"
"There." Miranda pointed at the distance with her delicate hands.
"Do you think it's so people of this area?" Wondered Benladann.
"People… More Fire Giants?" I wondered. "Wouldn't be so rare, they populate all this continent. Hey Surtr, do you know sothing?"
"No… We've never left the mountain ourselves. All of this is brand-new territory for us as well." Surtr wondered the jungles, moving aside the big leaves from reaching his wives which he had beco rather overprotective of after he found out they were pregnant a month ago.
We've been resting inside my Divine Realm for a long while now. While in the outside world just a couple of days passed, inside the Divine Realm we've been for almost two months.
We felt well rested now for anything, so we set off into the Southern areas of the Continent of Muspelheim, where the fourth Trial Tower for the Fla Venerable's Inheritance was located, untouched.
The area was rather unique, affected by Vanaheim's atmospheric weather, it has beco an incredibly hot, yet very big and lively tropical jungle. Filled with all sorts of exotic, endemic plants from green to red colors, even purple plants too, flowers of all colors, and big bugs everywhere.
And of course, this was also one of the areas that the System imdiately detected a special Divine Treasure growing sowhere, that could be used as the third pillar ingredient for my Ascendancy Law, so we ca to kill several birds with one stone by letting Surtr complete the trial while we look for this Divine Treasure, wherever it is amidst this gigantic jungle, which might be three tis as large as the Amazonian Jungles back on Earth.
"Here we are…" I sighed in relief, crossing my arms as we saw the enormous tower in front of us. "Surtr, you're going alone this ti. I'll let you bring so of my allies to help you."
"Alright, Master Drake! Leave it to us!" Surtr had beco quite dependable now.
