Volume 19, Chapter 157: Dealing with the Flame Snake

As soon as I finished speaking, a huge lava column dozens of meters high suddenly rose from under the rotating lava lake. As the lava slowly peeled off, the giant snake inside was revealed, which was at least thicker than the previous one. A giant snake head six to seven times the size.

"Damn, there's really a big one!"

"I'll stop it. Master, you go and finish the task first." Xiaofeng immediately plunged into the big snake after seeing it. Although the size of the big snake in front of me is many times larger than the previous giant snake, Xiaofeng's fully expanded body is not much smaller than it. I saw two huge fiery red figures colliding together quickly, and then rolling together and smashing into the magma. Even I was sprayed with a lot of lava.

Quickly shaking off the lava drops from my body, I quickly turned around and flew towards the Tree of Fire. Similar to the other World Trees before, there is a protective shield outside the Fire Tree. As soon as I passed through the protective shield, I immediately felt the temperature drop sharply. Unlike the high temperature of thousands of degrees above the lava lake, the temperature on the island in the center of the lake is actually about the same as on the ground, only 20 degrees at most.

Time is precious now, and my demon pets outside are helping me buy time, so I have no intention of wasting time. I handed the World Tree sapling to the Fire Tree as soon as I landed. The other party understood my intention when he saw the seedling, and obviously the Fire Tree could also see that my demon pet was busy fighting, so he didn't waste any time, took the seedling and started transmitting, and at the same time said aloud: " If you are in a hurry, go out and help first, it will take me about twenty minutes to finish everything here."

Since the Fire Tree said so, of course I wouldn't wait here stupidly, I jumped up and spread my wings and flew out of the protective shield. The battle outside was extremely fierce. My four demon pets and four big snakes were fighting in darkness. There was rolling lava everywhere. From time to time, I could see a flying piece of meat from someone’s body, but nothing unexpected happened. It should be the flesh of the Flame Snake. After all, I didn't receive any notification that the Demon Pet was injured.

I was suspended in the air for a while, and suddenly a lava column exploded in front of me on the left, and Everett rushed out from under the lava, entangled with a flaming snake. I had been waiting for the opportunity to take action for a long time. When I saw such a good opportunity, I immediately ducked and rushed forward. Although my Shenlong Armor has good heat resistance, it cannot fight under lava, so I can only seize the moment when the opponent comes out of the water.

Watching the flame snake and Everett entangled all the way up, I rushed to their side like lightning, and then passed behind the flame snake without stopping. Almost at the same time that I dodged behind the flame snake, the flame snake immediately erupted into a loud scream. I turned around and glanced at the big snake who was still fighting Everett. I looked helplessly at the eternal sword in my hand that had become more than a foot long. Normal-sized creatures like us are at a disadvantage when dealing with giant beasts. Even with its eternal sharpness, a blade more than ten feet long is only equivalent to causing a little flesh wound to the snake. It is like a normal person's arm. If you are scratched by a knife, it will hurt and bleed, but it is definitely not fatal.

After thinking about it, it seems that it is more troublesome to help Everett. After all, Everett himself is not big enough to entangle the Flame Snake. He can only rely on his sharp attacks to continuously consume the Flame Snake's energy, and he cannot control it at all. the other party’s actions.

Turning around and looking around, I quickly changed Eternity from a knife shape into a gun shape. The blade that I had specially stretched quickly softened, thickened, and continued to lengthen. Soon the eternity became a four-meter-long handle with a two-foot-long broadsword-like spearhead at the tip. Heavy lance. I danced the spear in my hand into a spear flower and carried it behind my back, and then I immediately contacted Black Flame through spiritual contact. Black Flame also followed my request and quickly rolled out of the lava with the flame snake entangled with him.

Among the four demon pets, the easiest one now is Black Flame. He was bigger than the Flame Snake. If it weren't for the fact that he was not a fire creature, he would have killed the Flame Snake long ago. My plan is to first help Hei Yan deal with the flame snake he is dealing with, and then cooperate with Hei Yan to deal with the other nearby flame snakes one by one.

After receiving my order, Black Flame immediately rushed out of the lava together with the flame snake. Seeing the two giant snakes entangled together and rising straight to the top of the cave, I rushed there like a mosquito next to an elephant. On the head of the flaming snake, I then aimed the eternal spearhead at the center of the flaming snake's forehead and thrust it all the way in. Moreover, the eternity continued to stretch as I thrust downwards.

Although Yan Snake is too big compared to my size, Eternity is now more than six meters long, and it penetrated directly into Yan Snake's head. After piercing the skull, I immediately turned eternity into a drill bit covered with jagged teeth from top to bottom, and then started spinning crazily. Before the flame snake entangled with the black flame could scream, a hole as big as a man's arm appeared on its head. Of course, compared to the size of the Flame Snake, such a large hole is like the eye of a needle on a human body and basically does not constitute a fatal injury. But I don't intend to simply kill it just by relying on this thing.

After the passage was penetrated, I again manipulated the eternity to transform into a hollow pipe. This end of the pipe was in my hand, and the other end went straight to the brain of the Flame Snake. As soon as the pipe was completed, I immediately aimed the outlet of the magic ricochet on my wrist at the tail of the pipe. With a clanging sound, all three hundred and sixty-eight magic bullets slid down the pipe into the Flame Snake's brain. Then, following my thoughts, the magic bullets began to rebound.

Speaking of which, the magic ricochet is only a Holy Spirit-level equipment, but I think its actual power is far stronger than many artifacts, because this magic ricochet can accumulate kinetic energy. As it rebounds, it can gradually increase its destructive power, and in the end it can even reach a destructive power no less than that of an artifact. However, this so-called destructive power that is no less than that of an artifact refers to just one ricochet. When 386 ricochet bombs bounce back and forth and collide in a narrow space at nearly the speed of sound, unless you have no entity, Otherwise, you can only wait to die.

The Flame Snake's brain is obviously physical, and the brain is definitely the most fragile and fatal link in the body, bar none. Even if a person's heart is suddenly removed, he will not die completely instantly, but death will be instantaneous after the brain is damaged.

The Flame Snake, which was fighting with Hei Yan desperately, suddenly twitched all over, and then erupted into a shocking scream. Hei Yan took the opportunity to bite the opponent's neck, and a sharp fang happened to be in the Flame Snake's head. There was a big hole in his heart. The Flame Snake, whose two vital points were fatally damaged at the same time, only twitched twice before becoming completely unresponsive. The magic ricochet also quickly left the Flame Snake's body under my command and swished back into my hand.

Throwing the dead flame snake to the shore, Heiyan quickly turned around and pounced on the flame snake that was entangled with Everett. The Flame Snake, which was concentrating on dealing with Everett, didn't expect someone to make a sudden attack from behind. When it turned its head suddenly, it saw a large mask coming down. Before the flaming snake could react, it bit the flaming snake just behind its head, completely blocking its movement. Everett took the opportunity to retreat and calmly accumulate energy, and then stopped the flaming snake in its tracks with one shot. It exploded into two pieces, and the back half of the body without the head became silent after a wild twist in the lava, while the front half of the head was swallowed whole by Hei Yan.

Black Flame is a dark energy creature. Strictly speaking, he can swallow all energy, including the surrounding lava, which he can consume as food. But after all, it is not a fire creature, so all Black Flame can do is absorb fire energy and transform it into body energy. It cannot rely on fire energy to strengthen itself.

After killing two flame snakes in succession, plus the one that Xiaofeng had killed before, there were only two flame snakes left, one big and one small. Black Flame and Everett, who were idle, were about to join forces to help Mira. Unexpectedly, a huge hole suddenly burst open in the lava, and then a bunch of flame snake fragments flew out, and then Mi Racai followed the pile of debris and flew out of the lava.

Seeing that the smaller flame snakes had all been killed, I directly pointed at the giant flame snake and said, "Everyone, come together and tear that guy apart."

After receiving the order, Hei Yan was the first to rush forward, but he did not immediately collide with the giant flame snake. Instead, he circled around the opponent twice. At the same time, Hei Yan's size continued to increase. . Since reaching level 1,000, Heiyan has been able to control his body size to a certain extent. Before, he did not use his full body form to ensure flexibility. Now that he meets a big guy, in order not to suffer from his body size, He immediately returned to his true size. Although the current Black Flame is not yet complete due to insufficient levels, his size is already comparable to that of the large Flame Snake in front of him.

Originally, Xiaofeng was already unbeatable in the battle with the Flame Snake. Black Flame suddenly wrapped around it and instantly sealed the body of the Flame Snake. Then Xiaofeng saw the opportunity and aimed at the body of the Flame Snake, grabbing it again and again. She tore it apart again, and in an instant she tore off a piece of the boss's flesh. Everett, Mira and the others also used various attack methods, beating the flaming snake all over in less than thirty seconds.

"The beast under the mouth!" Seeing that the flame snake was about to die, Hei Yan was about to swallow this guy and use it to evolve, but unexpectedly there was a sudden cry from the shore. It turned out that unknowingly during the battle, we had fought all the way to the shore of the lake. The group of people who were attacked by Juli before was no longer twenty meters away.

I first stretched out my hand to signal Hei Yan not to swallow it, and then I turned around and flew to the shore of the lake. However, I did not land, but hovered three or four meters away from the shore, slightly half a meter higher than the shore. When Xiaofeng saw me flying over, she also retracted her figure and turned into a beautiful bird as big as a macaw and landed on my shoulder, while Everett and Mira were still staring at the bird. The flaming snake, which was obviously about to expire, prevented it from coming back to bite us again.

I flew to the group of people and didn't speak immediately. Instead, I looked at the group of people first. Before, across a whole lava lake, I just took a rough look at their number but didn't take a closer look. Now that I'm getting closer, I naturally have to take another look. However, this team has been reduced by more than half compared to before. The original team of more than ten people now only has six people left, and two of them were seriously injured.

When I looked at the other person, the other person was also looking at me, but they obviously knew me. This kind of looking at me was not for the sake of observation, but a gaze similar to appreciation.

After observing the characteristics of this group of people, I asked: "Why do you want to stop me from killing that flaming snake?"

After hearing my question, a white mage from the group of people who was looking at me immediately stood up and said: "That's it, President Ziri, we are a team of free players, and we are here for the most important mission. . We know that you are definitely not interested in our mission, but we are very interested in the snake, so we hope to do business with you. We will pay for the snake, how about you give it to us ?”

"You want this too?" I asked slightly surprised.

The mage immediately looked at me in surprise and said, "Didn't President Ziri see it?"

I looked back at the half-dead flame snake in confusion, then looked at the mage and asked, "What should I see?"

The mage was immediately surprised when he heard my question and said, "Didn't you realize that that snake is at least over 1,500 levels?"

I looked back at the Flame Snake again, and then said calmly: "It's level 2,500 to be exact. It's a super evolved Flame Snake, which is five hundred levels higher than the normal Flame Snake."

The mage was obviously even more surprised when he heard my answer. "Why do you still want to kill if you know?"

"Why don't I kill?"

"President Ziri, are you kidding me?" The mage said in surprise: "Twenty-five hundred level super monsters have been beaten to a near-death state. Once this kind of creature is captured and turned into a magic pet, at least The price is over eight figures, you don’t want something like this?”

After hearing this guy's words, all my previous doubts disappeared immediately. "So that's what you're here for. As the strongest trainer in the game, I'm telling you that if someone sells a snake like you for more than eight figures, you don't have to bargain with him, just turn around and leave. That’s right.”

"Why?"

"Because I know this creature very well. The Flame Snake is a special terrain creature. The level of 2,500 is based on its special adaptability to the lava terrain. Players cannot only fight in the lava area. Besides, ordinary people I’m afraid there’s no way to move around in the lava area without protection, so I won’t be able to use the Flame Snake after I buy it.”

"Can't it be used in other places?" A little girl next to her interjected and asked.

"You don't know what a special terrain creature is, do you? Let me tell you, a special terrain creature refers to a type of creature that can only survive in a special environment, or whose strength is greatly reduced outside a special environment. Just like a fish will die if it leaves the water. Although the flame snake will not die when it leaves the lava, its strength must be doubled again and again. Even though this flame snake is a 2,500-level creature, in this lava it can single-handedly defeat a 3,000-level creature. It’s a loss, but when you get outside, you’re lucky if it can deal with a thousand-level creatures on its own. If it encounters water or a cold environment, its own survival will be a problem, let alone fighting.”

"how so?"

"Is this so strange? Every creature is more or less dependent on the environment, but the degree is different. This flame snake is just more dependent."

"I see, I've been taught a lesson!" The mage said and then added: "Well, I'm sorry to interrupt your battle, but I still hope that President Ziri can do us a small favor." Before I could say no, I refused. Or if asked, he immediately said in one breath: "It's not a trouble, it's just that we need a leaf from the fire tree. I hope President Ziri can help bring one over. Although we found a lot of fire-resistant equipment and drank fire-resistant drinks, Medicine, but the temperature of the lava is still too high, and we can't enter the lake at all. The fire bird we prepared before was swallowed by the flame snake, so there is really no way."

I looked back at the Tree of Fire, and after thinking about it, I felt that there was no conflict between us anyway. If you can help others, you will always be remembered. You may be able to use it in the future, and it is not a big deal to me anyway. It's just a round trip flight. Of course, words can't be said to death. Besides, what they want is the leaves of the Tree of Fire, not my hair. I can't agree to it for others, can I?

"It's okay to help you fly, but the Fire Tree is alive. I can help you ask. If he doesn't want to give it to me, he won't help you grab it."

"Okay, just ask for it for us. The Tree of Fire should give it to you. Anyway, it usually loses its leaves, so just give us a leaf that is about to fall off."

Since everyone said that, I couldn't make any excuses. I told him that Heiyan could eat the snake, and then I turned around and flew to the island. Sure enough, the Tree of Fire doesn't care about its leaves at all. According to him, the leaves are like human hair to him. One more strand is not more, and one less strand is not less. Of course, the hair of a bald man is still very precious, but the Tree of Fire obviously belongs to the type of existence with "excess hair". The leaves of the tree are so dense that taking out one piece is nothing.

He returned to the shore with the leaves and handed them to a few people. The other party gratefully accepted the leaves and then left the cave. I ignored those people, turned around and called Everett and the others to throw the remaining Flame Snake corpses to Black Flame to devour. Anyway, Black Flame's belly was like a black hole, and no matter how much they ate, they would not be full. According to Hei Yan himself, the more he eats, the faster he grows. In order to restore Hei Yan's size as soon as possible, he should eat more.

When the black flame finished eating the flame snake, the tree of fire also completed the infusion. As a reward, the Fire Tree gave me a flame core. I threw that thing directly to Everett, since no one else could use it anyway.

After bidding farewell to the Tree of Fire, only the Tree of Nature and the Tree of Soul were left to run, but before I could decide where to go next, the God of War contacted me first.

"Ziri, Ditans from the European Dark Temple sent someone to tell you that the thing you asked him to do is a bit troublesome, so you'd better go there."

I thought about it for a long time before I remembered that I had asked Ditans to help me investigate the Book of the World in Antarctica. I didn't expect that with the power of the three temples, I could still encounter trouble. It seems that this trouble is definitely not small. .
