Vera’s appetite was quite good. On the plate in front of her was a roasted steak that was more than two fingers wide than a person’s shoulder. It made people wonder how her stomach could fit it in.

“Please wait, this is the last one.”

When Vera saw Zhou Chen, she immediately said apologetically. Then, she used her fork and knife to cut the steak on the plate and put it into her mouth.

Her movements were quite elegant, but her speed and appetite were quite terrifying; Zhou Chen was starting to believe that she was a Dragonborn.

‘This appetite… is larger than mine.’

For the first time since becoming a Survivor, Zhou Chen felt that he had lost in terms of appetite.

A few minutes later, Vera finished her breakfast and looked at Zhou Chen.

“Where’s that girl?”

“She’s waiting for us outside the city gate.”

The tall girl had already told Zhou Chen that she would meet them outside the city.

“Alright, let’s go over now.”

Zhou Chen and Vera quickly left the Sleeping Red Dragon Tavern and headed outside the city gate.

Although it was said to be outside the city gate, they had actually walked for nearly three kilometers and stopped beside an empty forest.

When they arrived, the tall girl walked out of the forest.

She looked a little exhausted. There were some scratches on her snow wolf skin armor, and she was holding a heavy little pouch.

“Please pay the gold coins first.”

Vera said.

“Please show us how you are going to transport us first.”

Zhou Chen glanced at the sky imperceptibly and replied to her.

Vera immediately shook her head.

“I originally wanted my partner to bring you there, but it has something to do and can’t come today, so I can only use another method. This method is also safe and faster, but it’s not convenient to cancel after using it. You have to pay first.”

“Alright, I’ll believe you this once.”

Zhou Chen did not want to waste time with her. He only wanted to see what she was up to, so he handed the money bag over.

Vera took it and counted the coins.

“20, 40… 100… 200… Hmm, exactly 200 gold coins.”

After checking Zhou Chen’s money, she nodded and took the money from the tall girl to continue counting.

A while later, she confirmed that they had given enough gold coins. The two money bags in her hand disappeared, and a shiny transparent gem appeared on her hand.

Zhou Chen’s pupils were constricted. He almost thought that she was also a Survivor, but he quickly remembered that these gold coins could not be stored in the inventory space. There should be storage equipment in this world, so it was not surprising.

“This is the Teleportation Stone my mother gave me. I’ll use it to bring us to the foot of the Holy Mountain.”

Vera showed the strange gem to Zhou Chen and explained.

“Can you teleport us to the top of the Holy Mountain?”

Zhou Chen immediately asked.

His goal was to learn from the legendary sage at the top of the Holy Mountain. If he could avoid the climbing, he would.

“No…”

Vera shook her head. Her soft silver hair shook like waves on her shoulder.

“Unless we reach the realm of legends, we can’t reach the top of the Holy Mountain directly. We can only climb up the mountain step by step.”

“Alright…”

When Zhou Chen heard this, he knew that the sage on the top of the holy mountain had definitely put some restrictions. This was not a strange thing in the world of extraordinary powers.

A few seconds later, the strange gem in Vera’s hand floated above her hand, and it emitted a rainbow-like light that quickly turned into an oval.

From this circle of light, the shadow of a towering mountain could be seen, as well as floating snowflakes.

“This portal can only remain for ten seconds. Enter quickly. I’ll go in first.”

After saying that, Vera jumped into the light circle and appeared in the scene beyond the portal.

The tall girl also jumped into the light circle. Immediately, her figure appeared in the light circle.

Zhou Chen looked at the strange light circle in the sky and wondered if it was a trap. But after approaching it, his perception did not give him any warning, so he stopped hesitating and quickly jumped in.

After Zhou Chen jumped into the circle of light, he quickly felt a cold stream surge towards him. He landed on the hard ice and saw Vera and the tall girl observing the towering mountain peak.

“This is the Holy Mountain! I’ve also never been here before. This is a good opportunity to experience it!”

When Vera saw Zhou Chen and the tall girl appear, she raised her hand and pointed at the tall mountain in front of her. Then, she led the way to a gap at the bottom of the mountain. They could vaguely see some stairs through the gap, clearly the entrance to the mountain.

‘It is said that every person who climbs the mountain will be separated. Everyone’s tests are different too. They can only rely on their own strength to reach the peak.’

Zhou Chen recalled the information he had obtained and followed.

Ten minutes later, the three of them arrived at the entrance.

The Dragonborn, Vera, was the first to step on the stairs. Her figure instantly disappeared, followed by the tall girl.

Zhou Chen stepped on the stairs two seconds after them. Other than the cold wind that blew, he felt that it was no different from ordinary mountain climbing.

Of course, be it in his vision or perception, Vera and the tall girl had completely disappeared, as if they had never been near him.

“Perseverance is a necessary quality in pursuit of truth.”

Just as Zhou Chen was walking up the stairs while vigilantly scanning his surroundings, he heard an old voice in the wind, as if an old teacher was talking about philosophy.

“Is this a hint that this will be a test of my willpower?”

Zhou Chen looked up the stairs facing the cold wind and did not see any obvious abnormality. Everything was similar to what he had observed at the beginning.

He slowly walked up the stairs and headed for the peak.

He walked for more than half an hour when he realized a problem. He could still clearly see the steps at the entrance below. It seemed like he had not climbed much at all.

“Strange… is this an illusion?”

This situation was within Zhou Chen’s expectations, but he was still a little curious about the principle of it.

“I will have to continue climbing the mountain, so if that’s what you want, let’s do this! Anyway, I’ve brought enough food and water. At worst, I will wait for the system to send me back to Planet Blue in four days.”

Zhou Chen did not panic. As a Survivor, as long as he did not die, he would definitely leave this place..
