Before long, John and Malina arrived at the entrance to the Secret Area.
Avis landed, and there were no elemental dragons in sight nearby.
John immediately activated the Secret Area.
Buzz!
The space around them rippled, and a rift appeared—this was the entrance to the Secret Area.
Curious, Malina leaned in to take a closer look, but it was a spatial passage, so she couldn't see anything inside.
John gestured politely and said, "After you."
Malina frowned in displeasure. "You first."
This was a fifth-tier Secret Area, with powerful beasts inside. She wasn't about to enter recklessly.
"Stay close," John warned as he entered the Secret Area with Avis.
Since Avis was his pet, it didn't take up one of the limited slots.
Malina followed closely behind.
After a brief sensation of spinning, the two of them found themselves in a desolate wasteland.
The wind howled, whipping up sand that stung their faces.
