Chapter 169 Lava Attack
In fact, Alka did not feel that he was affected in any way, and he did not even feel a layer of frost on his skin.
Even under the sunlight, the exterior still exudes a biting chill.
Juanlu, who was standing next to them, watched the whole process. Although he didn't know what they were going to do or why they were doing it, it didn't stop him from thinking that Alka and the others were very powerful.
It gave him a feeling of being incomprehensible.
Looking at Alka's appearance that looked like an ice sculpture, Julia nodded to indicate that it was done.
Alka then handed them the steel cable he had been carrying on his back, then picked up the end with the hook and walked to the edge of the nozzle.
Juanlu watched the scene and saw Alka come to the edge.
What is this for? Could it be...
Then, an outrageous thought suddenly popped up in my mind. Just when I was about to get rid of it, I saw Alka jump down.
"Why!!!!"
Watching Alka jump down, he couldn't help but exclaim, and subconsciously took a few steps forward, trying to grab the steel rope that Alka was tied to.
Trying to drag him up.
Jason next to him quickly stopped him: "It's okay, don't be surprised, he will be fine."
After hearing this, Juanlu calmed down and looked at the people who had no worried expressions on their faces. He couldn't help but walk to the edge and look down.
Alka was seen sliding along an arc with the steel cable and falling towards the center of the lava.
As the magma splashed, Alka also fell into the magma, and a large amount of white steam floated upwards.
Blinded everyone's view.
A circle of light appeared behind Julia, and several bandages flew out and wrapped around the falling steel cable in sections.
Xia Daiti and Jason also grabbed the tail end of the cable, ready to pull back at any time.
Looking at this scene, Juanlu subconsciously grasped the piece in front of him, his eyes never leaving the lava.
At this time, Alka fell into the magma. He did not feel any resistance when he fell, just like he fell into some sticky lake water.
This seemed to be different from the magma he knew. It was more like... more like energy liquid? Or something like that.
He didn't really understand, he just felt the temperature around him rising rapidly. Fortunately, the place he landed in was a place that had been explored long ago, and the target was right below.
Controlling your body, sinking downwards.
The further down you go, the greater the resistance you feel. Above it feels like a thick liquid, but below it feels like you're stuck in a quagmire, as if you're wrapped in deadly mud.
The heat was getting higher and higher, and the layer of blue frost coating on his body began to flicker and dim.
If he could see.
Alka finally touched something that was obviously different from magma. His sense of the surroundings now all came from the scanning of the silver ripples.
After touching it, he quickly lifted it up.
He could feel the frost coating almost gone, the thermal insulation disappearing as well.
At that time, his body will directly come into contact with the absurdly high temperature magma, and then he will become a familiar person.
The steel cable was not dragged into the lava by him, but was placed on top of the lava.
Julia would use bandages to prevent the cable from falling and adjust the angle so that Alka could grab it at any time.
Suspended above the surface, it can withstand the temperature of the magma, but it cannot withstand the temperature of falling into it.
It was relatively easy when it sank.
Now, when carrying a metal box up, it was extremely difficult, as if one was stuck in a quagmire and struggling to survive.
I finally felt the burning sensation, although the frost coating had not completely faded away.
But soon.
If you don't go up quickly, you will most likely die once you touch this body, and what will be refreshed then will be the real body.
At that time, he had to use the last resort. After all, he had no intention of playing with his own life.
Finally, when I felt my skin being burned, a hand reached out of the magma first and magic power burst out.
Then he lifted the box high up, and energy magma like thick liquid slid down from the side.
As the magic power was released, the front hook of the steel cable was controlled, and several steel ropes popped out immediately, wrapping directly around the metal box and firmly fastening it.
Feeling the steel cable sinking downwards, the group that had already discussed it immediately began to pull it backwards with all their strength.
Alka was already burned by the flames, his skin was immediately destroyed, oil and flesh began to boil. The clothes on his body had already merged with his skin, and the temperature rose rapidly.
Finally, Alka felt a tug from above and was pulled up along with the metal box.
At this time, Alka's surface in the air had completely melted and become distorted, looking extremely creepy.
There was even flames burning on the body.
Looking at this scene, Juanlu was stunned and a little at a loss.
He had never seen anything like it.
"Can this injury be cured?" he couldn't help but ask.
I feel good to be alive.
"No medical attention is needed."
What! Just give up? He was a little shocked.
And as Jason finished speaking, Alka and the metal box were pulled up to the ground.
As if refreshed, the torn clothes on Alka's body, the completely burnt skin and flesh, and the completely burnt hair all reappeared.
He stood on the ground intact, just like when he jumped down just now.
Juanlu, who was about to say something, closed his mouth, his eyes revealing confusion.
What is going on?
This is amazing.
Is this something that the Toucher can do? It feels like only the power of a treasure can be like this.
He couldn't help but think about it.
Finally, I couldn't help but ask: "Holy Mother, how did you do it?"
Listening to his amazed words, Alka looked at him and smiled.
"It's just a small ability, not worth mentioning."
But this time it was beyond his expectations. Perhaps he acted too quickly, and this time the fake body did not die because of the fire.
Just burned, badly burned.
But as long as he is not dead, no matter how serious the injury is, it does not cause any burden to his spirit.
The last means of saving life was not used.
Then, several people couldn't help but look at what was in front of them.
At this time, the metal box was still emitting an astonishing temperature.
There was not a single scratch on the metal box, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, and it was polished smooth, like a mirror, and even began to emit sunlight.
Alka looked at this thing and found that it didn't look like a metal box at all, but rather like a metal block.
Because it fits perfectly, like a whole.
And there is no blue border on it. I don’t know if it’s because I just touched it in the lava or because the treasure is deeper inside.
Just like Alka once did, harvesting the inherited treasure.
Thinking of this, he looked at the map in his hand.
At this time, the light spot above has dimmed, leaving behind a golden dot that no longer glows.
This shows that he did gain something.
Reached out and clicked it.
[Ancient Relics] (Harvest)
[Difficulty: Lava Tolerant, Strong (Triple Helix)]
【Popularity: 56】
[Treasure information: A seamless box buried under the magma. Legend has it that it can lock time inside.]
【Treasure Harvest: Box of Eternal Preservation.】
From the extra information on the treasure, we can know that the treasure is this box that can lock time inside.
Locking time inside? Is this a capability that a Holy Grail-level treasure can possess?!
Could this be a treasure of the scepter level?
But it shouldn't be.
Alka frowned in thought.
For a scepter-level treasure, will it also reveal golden spots of light?
Alka thinks it shouldn’t be the case.
But there is no more information to be gained from this.
Looking at the box that looked like a piece of metal at his feet, Alka squatted down.
After waiting for the scorching temperature on the box's surface to cool down, Alka reached out and touched it.
As the arm touched, the dream catcher gave no sign of resistance.
That's not bad, it means that Dreamcatcher doesn't hate the box in his hand as much as he hates Frost Nova.
The magic power was transferred along the arm to the box in front of him.
The magic power in his hand was smoothly integrated into the box, which shows that the dream catcher is not opposed to it.
I could feel that the box seemed unwilling, and after a long while it reluctantly expelled the magic power again.
The magic power returned to Alka's hands very smoothly.
It seems that this box repels the Dream Catcher, but it takes so long to release the magic power, which means that the level of this box is lower than that of the Dream Catcher.
I feel a little short of breath.
It doesn't look like it's of the scepter level, it should be a holy grail of the same level.
Maybe it's the bottom of the Holy Grail.
Because whether it is the Bloody Flag or the Frost Nova, they are both powerful repels or counterattacks when facing the Dreamcatcher.
It would never happen like this, where it would take half a day to expel the magic power.
This shows that it is one level weaker than the Dreamcatcher. Isn't this the low end of the Holy Grail?
The Dreamcatcher should be at the average level among the Holy Grail levels.
Of course, if the three treasures obtained before are all top-level Holy Grail level, then just ignore what he said.
But since everyone rejects him, then Xia Daiti, Pororo or Jason will have to try the treasure chest.
But it’s not the time yet, let’s get on the boat first.
Alka picked up the box and turned to the others and said, "Let's go back to the boat first."
Several people nodded.
Take your things and quickly return to the ship.
Only Juanlu looked confused. Although he followed and watched the whole process, he felt that he did not understand anything and followed everyone back to the boat in a daze.
Porro didn't expect them to come back so soon. The round trip took less than two hours.
Is it that easy?
Back on the boat, Alka looked at the box in his hands.
"That's strange, why didn't you encounter any obstacles?"
Hearing Alka's words, Xiadaiti asked curiously, "Why did we encounter obstacles? There is no one on the island, not even any living creatures."
How could he respond? He couldn't just say that he saw it on the map.
But it is true that the difficulty is marked with three spirals. From the treasure hunt in Alka to the present, as long as the difficulty of the treasure is marked with the level of strength, it means that you will encounter enemies of corresponding strength.
Never an exception.
No, the only exception is the red evil spirit that appeared out of nowhere when you were obtaining the treasure before.
But there was a reason for that, and it was simply because the monsters were superior in strength.
It was the first time he encountered this, and there were difficulty levels, but he didn't encounter any monsters corresponding to them.
There wasn't even any fighting.
Why does this happen?
Is it marked wrong?
“Ahhhh!”
Before he could think further, an earth-shaking roar came from the island.
Everyone on the boat immediately turned to look.
The crater, which had been relatively quiet, suddenly erupted. The eruption was extremely sudden, and no magma flowed out of the crater.
The fiery red liquid spurted out from the nozzle like a spring, reaching an exaggerated height.
Thick black smoke floated out, covering the fiery red magma that was gushing out, and only red raindrops could be seen falling.
There was constant fire at the edge, and red liquid spread down and flowed along the slope of the volcano.
Then there was a violent shaking. The whole island was shaking, and they could feel it very clearly on the beach.
But that roar didn't sound like the roar of a volcano.
In any case, such behavior is urging them to leave quickly.
"Hurry, start the boat, let's go, the volcano is about to erupt."
After Aka finished speaking, he waved his hand, the canvas dropped, and Pororo went straight to the helm.
The boat quickly left the shore, and everyone couldn't help but stare at the volcano on the island.
Thick smoke billowed and rushed towards the sky, and the magma that had erupted before was even more exaggerated.
It was like the scene where a fire hydrant on the street was suddenly smashed open and a large amount of water gushed out.
It was even more exaggerated than the previous fountain-like eruption.
Is this what a volcano eruption looks like?
Alka had never seen this before, but he felt that this was too exaggerated and a little too outrageous.
Watching the gushing magma flying all over the sky and falling like raindrops.
The falling area almost covered the entire island.
A normal volcano definitely doesn't erupt like this, it's too outrageous.
"Will the lava not erupt towards us?"
Jason looked at the erupting magma and couldn't help but speak.
It felt like the height of the jet was too exaggerated, and it seemed like it would fly towards them.
Hearing this, Juanlu, who was still in a panic, couldn't help but say, "How is it possible? With that kind of eruption arc, how could it possibly spray here?"
But he had just finished speaking.
The magma erupting in the air inexplicably gathered together, drew an arc in the air, and flew straight towards their location.
grass!
Looking at this scene, Alka finally understood why there was no obstruction.
He quickly waved his hands to control the spells on the ship, maxing out the effects of all the spells.
The spells on the sails and masts lit up, and a large amount of wind was directed and gathered, blowing the sails up.
The sails also begin to adjust automatically to maximize the wind force.
The spells on the edge of the ship also lit up, quickly controlling the surrounding ocean currents.
In an instant, the speed of the boat under their feet increased and it quickly left the island.
However, a large mass of magma in the sky formed an elemental object that looked like a python and flew towards them.
It fell like a meteorite, with thick smoke billowing behind it.
It's obvious that someone is manipulating this.
Everyone on the boat couldn't help but turn around and look at Jason.
"Why are you looking at me? I was just talking. Who knew he would really fly over here?"
Alka ignored him and said quickly, "It should be the creature guarding this treasure just now. I don't know why he didn't attack us just now.
Although I don't know why there is movement now, we are in trouble now, so we should prepare to fight back."
He was just wondering why there were no enemies even though he had written about it, and why they came only now.
But no matter what, if you want to get this treasure, you must fight the enemy this time.
Moreover, the enemy has at most three spirals, which is within their ability to deal with.
It's just that the size is a bit too big.
In the sky, the condensed lava python fell into the sea, a large amount of water vapor evaporated, and thick white smoke rose.
However, when the magma fell into the sea, it was not immediately cooled by the temperature and turned into stone. Instead, it was not affected by the water surface and moved upwards towards them.
really.
When Alka entered the magma before, he felt that there was something wrong with the magma.
How can there be magma like oil? So this is what it is.
However, what can be seen through the telescope is just the surface covered with liquid energy magma like oil.
Its inner core is still that kind of molten mineral magma.
"Molten Serpent? This should be Molten Serpent!"
Lucilia, who was on Alka's shoulder, seemed to have thought of something and spoke quickly.
"This is a kind of energy creature that lives in lava. It is very powerful and has an endless lifespan. It can reach the third stage when it reaches adulthood!"
But the one in front of him was obviously not that outrageous.
There was obvious panic on everyone's faces, this was the third stage.
Alka said quickly, "It only has three spirals. I can feel it."
But since it is a lava creature and has come to the sea, it is no longer his main battlefield.
But theirs.
He quickly turned to look at Julia next to him: "Julia, use the treasure."
After hearing what Alka said, Julia did not hesitate and quickly opened the box at her feet.
The blue orb floated up again as she controlled it, and the temperature around it began to drop sharply.
The low temperature spread around, and the cold wind immediately blew over the warmer sea area.
The whole process is developing extremely quickly, and the treasure is rapidly affecting the surrounding environment.
The orb floated along with the base to Julia's left hand, and a translucent ice blade appeared in her right hand. Julia then controlled the ice blade and swung it fiercely towards the distance.
The attack itself did not have an exaggerated chill, but with the blessing of the gem, it seemed to have gained an exaggerated boost.
The sea surface in the distance was completely frozen and spread rapidly forward, turning into icicles protruding upwards.
These icicles are up to five or six meters high and are extremely lethal.
Especially for such a huge creature.
It spread extremely quickly and hit the Lava Snake directly. An icicle went straight through his body.
Then the icicle melted.
But this blow penetrated him, and a part of the Lava Snake's body was frozen in place, the heat disappeared, and it turned into a gray stone.
The outer layer of oily energy liquid lost its effect and began to gather towards the unaffected upper and lower body.
Abandoning this section of its body that had turned into stone, the lava snake continued to chase him, seemingly without causing him much harm.
He opened his mouth wide and roared continuously, then raised his head into a spewing position, spewing out lava fireball after lava fireball towards where they were.
