Chapter 285 Space Confinement
After grinding a meter-long stone slab into the shape of a cannonball, the inside was hollowed out, leaving a hole in the front half and shaping the tail wing in the back half.
After the shaping work was completed, Mo Lan suddenly hesitated, then shook his head and continued the work in his hands. He began to prepare the spell model of the constant forbidden magic field.
When preparing to stabilize it, Mo Lan suddenly realized that there was no mercury in the fire elemental realm.
Looking at the experience bar that still had a long way to go before upgrading to the fourth-level ink cartridge, Mo Lan fell silent.
After a while, Mo Lan began to climb higher, resisting the fire ring exploding under his feet. With the Feather Fall Technique, Mo Lan climbed higher and higher again and again.
Mo Lan wanted to take another look at the phoenix.
The wind was whistling in his ears and Mo Lan was holding a fireball tightly in his hand.
"Where's the phoenix?"
To Mo Lan's disappointment, he floated in the sky for a long time and even released many spells to create spell fluctuations, but there was still no sign of the phoenix.
This made Mo Lan very disappointed.
"So the previous encounter with the phoenix was just a coincidence?"
After waiting for a long time, Mo Lan had to lock onto a huge lava lake, holding a fireball as big as a basketball in his hand, and dived down madly.
The fire ring behind him was pushing forward madly, and gravity was also constantly accelerating Mo Lan.
The strong wind broke the water shield and the magic shield, causing Mo Lan's face to shake wildly.
When he arrived directly above the lava lake, Mo Lan couldn't even see the boundary of the lava lake, all he could see was lava.
Mo Lan grinned.
However, at this moment, a huge hand rose from the calm lava lake and slapped Mo Lan quickly.
"flash!"
Just before the big hand slapped Mo Lan, Mo Lan flashed onto the surface of the lake, looked at the roiling magma below, and threw the six-ring fireball that he had been brewing for a long time into it.
"I'm tired, destroy it!"
puff!
There was a slight sound, and then there was the boiling fire element. Mo Lan clearly sensed the frenzy of the fire element.
"flash!"
“Hahahaha, flash!”
Mo Lan laughed heartily, but at this moment, he, who had originally flashed upwards two hundred meters, suddenly fell down from thirty meters.
And where he came out, a big hand came whistling.
At this moment, Mo Lan felt as if the space had turned into a piece of iron plate that could not be shaken. Even the Four-Ring Flash Technique could not allow him to escape into the space.
"Uh, block the space... Sorry to bother you."
Mo Lan couldn't laugh anymore.
What followed was the wrath of the fire element. Yes, the wrath of the fire element.
In the past, when people talked about the fury of the fire element, they were just describing a state. But at this moment, Mo Lan truly felt the anger of the fire element, just like the anger of a living being.
Mo Lan was crushed to death in an instant. In his dead state, Mo Lan did not rush to revive, but instead turned his gaze towards the big hand, towards the place where he threw the six-ring fireball.
However, to Mo Lan's disappointment, nothing happened in the lava lake. Only when the big hand sank into the lava lake again, it caused a huge wave. Apart from that, there was no movement and the lava lake returned to its former calm.
Mo Lan fell into deep thought. The fire spirit sensed the moment he was crushed to death.
“This is another pure fire spirit… Could it be that after the lava beast breaks through to the master level, it will purify its essence and directly transform into a fire spirit?
Or is it that only those who transform into fire spirits can break through to the seventh level? Or are these fire spirits that have been polluted and turned into lava beasts destined to be losers, and only those fire spirits that maintain a pure state by chance are qualified to be promoted to the master level?
And the space confinement just now, I was directly knocked out even when I flashed. Is this a special spell, or is it an instinct that all masters have?
If it is the former, it means that everyone may have this spell in the future, and flash will be useless.
If it is the latter, then you have to be careful when facing a master level enemy. You can't beat them and you can't run away. Flash is in an awkward position. You can't use it against the weak, and you can't use it against the strong."
Mo Lan fell into deep thought.
"There is also the terrifying control over the fire element, which directly destroyed my fireball technique. There is also the problem of the emotions revealed by the fire element.
It's outrageous, but this should only be possessed by master-level fire spirits, so in this case... then it's okay."
Mo Lan clicked on the resurrection button and appeared on the fifth floor of the Mage Tower.
"Zong Xin, bring me a bucket of mercury to the blast furnace."
The sudden sound startled Xu Zongxin, and he hurriedly closed the page in front of him. Only then did he realize that he was the only one who could see this page.
"Ah? President? Is the newly opened space crack right next to you? What a coincidence.
Hey, that's not right. The space element pool clearly hasn't stored enough elements yet. How did you come back?"
Mo Lan shrugged.
“I was in a hurry to do an experiment and committed suicide. Anyway, I can go to the Fire Elemental Realm again in a few days.
I was just very weak and uncomfortable. I died twice in a short period of time, which directly reduced me to the state before I was promoted to the fifth ring. "
"Oh, I see. I'll get the mercury right away."
Xu Zongxin went to get mercury as soon as he heard the news. Mercury was a strategic resource that Mo Lan attached great importance to, so there was naturally a lot of it stored in the Mage Tower.
Seeing this, Mo Lan went straight to the underground blast furnace area. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Lin Wo sitting in front of the workbench under the blast furnace. On the workbench stood a strange-shaped object made of black steel with gold patterns. There were many cavities, gears and slender pistons on it, and it made a vibrating sound from time to time. When Mo Lan opened the door, he saw that the piston was stuck.
"Hmm? President, you're back? Weren't you planning to try out the full-power fireball technique in the fire elemental realm?"
Lin Wo asked in surprise when he saw Mo Lan.
"I just suddenly realized that the Mage Tower has good equipment, complete supplies, and high logistical support. These are all the territories I fought hard for, just to make it more convenient to conduct experiments.
I gave up these experiments in the element of fire. Isn't this a stupid act? So I came back."
Lin Wo laughed when he heard this.
"So what are you going to do, Guild Master? Make a staff?"
Mo Lan shook his head when he heard that. Seeing that Xu Zongxin had already brought the mercury, he opened the blast furnace and pulled some liquid gold-patterned black steel out of the blast furnace and began to shape it.
Slowly, an iron pipe as thick as a washbasin formed in front of Lin Wo. There was a basketball-sized hole in the middle of this thick iron pipe, and the bottom was sealed.
“I plan to make a cannon that can be used to fire fireballs, thereby increasing the speed, accuracy, and range of fireballs.
But now I am a little hesitant.”
"What are you hesitating about?"
Mo Lan recalled the thoughts that popped up in his mind when he cut off the cannonball in the Fire Elemental Realm, and the gun barrel floating in the air paused slightly.
"Using artillery is indeed a solution, but it feels a little different from my goal and expectations."
"I'd like to hear more about it."
