Chapter 143 Abnormal Treasure
The diameter of the crater is more than ten feet, and the water column ejected at this moment is also more than ten feet high, so the water is very large. If there is no accident, at most half an hour, the island will be completely submerged in water.
It's too late to build ditches now, and it's useless at all, but the residents on the island can swim, so they won't drown as long as there are no profound beasts attacking them.
"Kill, kill all the profound beasts!"
Lu Li let out a loud shout, and the green dwarves rushed forward like sharp swords. The Ninth Elder brought five green dwarves, and he brought seven, and the other three were sitting on Blood Fiend Island.
Lu Li, the Ninth Elder and the rest of the warriors all fought. Lu Li and the Ninth Elder found the second-grade profound beast, and the ordinary Xuanwu realm found the first-grade profound beast, and they fought each other.
Lu Li didn't release the blood magic skill, which only lasts for half an hour, and it can't be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
Even so, his combat strength is also very sturdy. Liu Yi bought him a ground-level battle armor, holding a ground-level mysterious weapon, and using the Ben Lei Xuan Technique, his strength reached 100,000 catties, which is the average level of the second rank. The mysterious beast can be killed easily.
"Wow~"
A huge fish beast shot out from the water. Its mouth was bigger than Lu Li's body, and its mouth was full of sharp teeth. Lu Li didn't even look at it, and swiped his halberd with his backhand. The big fish was thrown flying, and its head was bleeding.
The green dwarves are more fierce, and they can easily deal with the second-grade profound beasts. The green claws can catch them one at a time, and they don't need Lu Li and the ninth elder to do anything later, and the green dwarves can easily suppress them.
"call out!"
A shadow flew over from afar, Tian Tuozi came over, it seemed that he had killed the nine-clawed octopus. The third-grade mysterious beast is comparable to the soul pool, but Tian Tuozi is the peak of the soul pool, and Lu Li and others expected that he can easily kill the nine-clawed octopus.
"Elder Nine!"
Lu Li rushed towards the Ninth Elder and said, "Tuozi and I are guarding here, you take the three green dwarves to the rest of the island and kill all the mysterious beasts."
"good!"
One day the hunchback and the green dwarves were there, the Ninth Elder felt relieved, and left with the three green dwarves. Lu Li and Tian Tuozi stood on the top of a small mountain, locked on to the distant volcano, let the green dwarves roam around, and wiped out all the mysterious beasts in the water.
"Tian Tuozi, what's the situation with this volcano?"
No danger yet. When Lu Li asked, Tian Tuozi thought for a while and said, "The Qiandao Lake is lower than this, so the water here cannot be from Qiandao Lake. There are only two possibilities."
"oh?"
Tian Tuozi has lived for more than a hundred years and has seen a lot. Lu Li said curiously, "Tell me."
The hunchback proudly stroked his sparse beard, pretending to be profound, Lu Li glared at him and immediately said with a smile on his face, "Either a huge underground river diverted its course and connected to the bottom of the volcano. Or... a strange treasure appeared in this volcano, Or the powerful water-type profound beasts have affected the water potential. Other than that, there is no other explanation."
"The underground river diverted?"
Lu Li somewhat believed this inference, as for the powerful water-type profound beast? This is a small volcano, there is not much space inside, how could a powerful mysterious beast appear? The stronger the mysterious beast, the bigger it will be.
"Different treasure?"
This aroused Lu Li's interest, who doesn't like treasures? If it is really because of the emergence of water system treasures that trigger the eruption of Qiandao Lake, it is not impossible.
The crater was still erupting, and some mysterious beasts could be vaguely erupted. Naturally, Lu Li didn't dare to send people to investigate inside the volcano, so he could only wait and see what happened.
Fortunately, the mysterious beasts erupting from behind were not strong, they were all first and second rank profound beasts, and no third rank profound beasts appeared again. Tian Tuozi didn't even make a move, and the green dwarves kept fighting.
The Ninth Elder came back once, and the mysterious beasts outside had been completely wiped out. Lu Li asked him to keep the green dwarves and help Liu Yi organize people to transfer the tribal people on the island. The volcano is still erupting, so it's better to move away.
Two hours passed.
The water column erupting from the crater began to weaken, and Lu Li felt relieved. Judging from the situation, it was very likely that a huge underground river had diverted its course, triggering a volcanic eruption.
There are many underground rivers and lakes underground, and some mysterious beasts live in them, which is normal.
There were thousands of residents on the island, more than a thousand were killed, and the rest were being transferred. It is estimated that it is almost the same at this moment. However, Lu Li didn't dare to leave until he was completely sure of his safety.
After another half an hour, the volcano stopped spouting water, and the water level in the crater was dropping rapidly. Lu Li and Tian Tuozi went up to the crater, looking at the deep crater, they were silent.
"Tian Tuozi, why don't you go down and investigate?" After a while, Lu Li thought about it and said, "What if there is really a rare treasure down there?"
Tian Tuozi was a little moved, he glanced at the green dwarf following Lu Li and said, "I dare not go down alone, unless you bring the green dwarf with me."
If there were green dwarves, Tian Tuozi would still have a chance to escape even if he encountered a powerful mysterious beast. Otherwise, if he goes down alone, he won't even have a chance to escape if he encounters a fourth-grade profound beast.
Lu Li looked at the deep crater, blinked his eyes and hesitated, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to find the rope."
If there is a rope and someone pulls it, he can easily go up, and he will not be in danger with the green dwarf and the hunchback.
The volcano spouted water inexplicably, and I always felt uneasy if I didn’t go to investigate it. The Seventh Elder and the Lu Elder were not there, and the Ninth Elder was arranging for the islanders to retreat. As the island owner, he did his part.
Lu Li sent someone to find a few bundles of ropes in the tribe, and asked them to wait at the crater. He tied the ropes around his waist, and waved his hand, "Go, go down!"
Tian Tuozi is so powerful that he doesn't need ropes at all, and the green dwarf's sharp claws can easily pierce into the volcano wall without using ropes. Lu Li made an appointment with several people in the crater for a secret sign, and slowly climbed down.
Tian Tuozi was the strongest, and he took the lead. His profound strength shone and he jumped down directly. The man stabbed the golden saber in mid-air, piercing into the volcano wall, stopping the fall. The same was true for the eight green dwarves, their sharp claws easily grabbed into the cliff, and quickly climbed down all the way.
Tian Tuozi released his profound energy, which could slightly illuminate the situation below. The water level in the crater dropped rapidly, and everyone fell hundreds of feet without seeing any water.
The volcano was very quiet, eerie and creepy. There was a hunchback and eight green dwarves. Lu Li was naturally courageous, so he didn't feel anything.
Continuing to fall and climb down, they fell more than a thousand feet, and the two finally reached the bottom of the volcano. There is actually no water below, and there is no magma, only the wet ground, and a lot of algae and the like.
"There's a hole here!"
The bottom of the volcano is not big, only a thousand feet in diameter. Tian Tuozi turned around and saw a big hole in a corner, extending obliquely towards the ground.
"Is it leading to the underground river?"
Lu Li untied the rope, walked over and took a few glances and said, "Come on, let's explore along the cave."
Now that it's down, we must check it out. If it's an underground river, it's fine to turn around and have someone block the passage, so that such a tragedy will not happen next time and so many people will die.
The hunchback was in the front, the green dwarf accompanied them all the way, and Lu Li was at the end. The two walked along the slippery underground passage, which has been extending obliquely underground, and they don't know where it will end up?
Half an hour!
Lu Li and Tian Tuozi walked for half an hour before arriving at the end of the passage. The two glanced a few times from a distance, but their eyes were full of shock.
The two saw an underground lake. If it was an ordinary underground lake, the two would not be surprised. This lake is not ordinary, because this lake can glow, and a bright light lights up at the bottom of the lake, illuminating the entire underground lake.
"Is there a strange treasure?"
Tian Tuozi and Lu Li looked at each other, their expressions were a little moved, if it wasn't for the strange treasure, how could it be possible to emit such a bright light?
