Chapter 429: Deep Into the Magma! (I Haven't Asked for Votes for a Long Time, Please Vote and Subscribe)
Lu En felt that the name he gave to these snakemen should probably be preceded by the word "lava".
Lava snakemen!
This should be the real name of these snakemen. If the snakemen that stand three or four meters tall and are six or seven meters long are already amazing enough, then the huge lava snakemen that are more than ten meters long and active in the crater are even more eye-catching.
Of course, what is even more terrifying is that the word "they" should be added after these lava snakemen.
As far as Lu En saw, there were more than five huge snakemen that emerged from the magma, and they ate up all the fruits of the snakemen's hunting in the jungle in the morning.
Lu En was a little surprised before. It was actually a stress-free thing for this jungle to support these dozens of snakemen. It did not need to feed them with solidified volcanic lava to fatten them up. But now he knew that the real big guys were the lava snakemen active in the magma.
The suppression of supernatural power in the inner world has led to the integration of most supernatural factors into the flesh, and there is no ability to absorb energy in the void, so most of the energy comes from food.
Even supernatural creatures are no exception.
In the real world, bishop-level beings can be separated from food, water, and even air, and live without eating. However, in the inner world, even creatures as strong as archbishops may starve to death if they do not eat.
The larger the body, the more food is needed, and the food of these lava snake people is all provided by the snake people living outside.
Although the social structure is very primitive, these snake people are undiscriminating supernatural species. Just talking about the environment in which they live, ordinary people will probably be roasted into mummies soon.
And their form of civilization is not necessarily the development path that Lu En is familiar with, but has embarked on another supernatural path.
What these snake people pay more attention to is not the advancement and development of civilization, but the improvement of individual strength.
It can be said that these lava snakemen are the advanced forms of those snakemen living outside, and the strength of each lava snakeman is at least bishop-level, and only in this way can they move freely in the boiling magma, which is amazing.
Of course, Lu En was also very curious about why these advanced snakemen lived in the lava instead of outside. In addition, he needed to find suitable extraordinary materials, so he just found a crater and fell straight down.
Although the bright aura emitted by the body was a matter of great trouble to Lu En most of the time, it was not without benefits. Just like now, Lu En did not even feel any temperature changes, and the magma under his feet was like water, allowing him to sink into it.
The sticky and hot magma was firmly blocked outside by the aura emitted by Lu En, and he did not even need to control it deliberately. However, when he looked around, he saw a deep dark red color.
The visibility of magma is not as good as that of water. With Luen's eyesight, he can only see the situation within a few meters around him. However, Luen's consciousness scan clearly transmits the surrounding scenes into his mind.
If it were the real world, Luen's consciousness would sweep through half of the imperial capital. Although it is extremely compressed now, there is still no problem in scanning the space around him. Moreover, Luen has the means of life force sensing, so he is not worried about becoming blind.
For areas that they cannot reach, humans always have various guesses, such as the deep sea, the underground, or the depths of lava. However, after Luen's personal experience, he feels that the surrounding environment is actually quite similar to some waters.
It's just that the medium has changed from water to magma.
Some large and small passages and caves are distributed around the rock wall. They look empty and there is no trace of life. As Luen descends, the magma also changes from dark red to a bright white, and the visibility is further reduced.
Luen estimated that he had gone hundreds of meters deep. The temperature of the magma around him was such that if a person fell down, he would be melted to nothing in an instant. However, in such an environment, Luen saw traces of life.
Crash!
The magma around him surged like water. A huge lava snake swam past Luen, and in front of the snake, a crystal stream of light was escaping quickly.
"Pure elemental creatures?"
Luen was stunned. The two figures had disappeared from his sight, but Luen saw clearly that the creature that the lava snake was chasing was like a burning flame, but it had hands and feet and moved very quickly.
Luen felt a strong supernatural element on it, so he chased after the lava snake without thinking.
His speed was much faster than that of the lava snake, and he quickly approached the two, but the chase in front of him was obviously coming to an end.
The elemental creature that kept changing its shape shrank itself to the size of an ordinary person's arm, then suddenly found a small hole in the rock wall, and drilled into it in a flash, disappearing without a trace.
Bang!
The lava snakeman who followed closely behind him crashed into the rock wall with a bang, and a big hole was knocked out of the solid black rock. However, the elemental creatures that escaped into it had long disappeared.
The lava snakeman looked quite angry. He waved his strong arms and dug a hole several meters deep in the rock wall, but it was in vain and he did not gain anything at all.
It was at this time that the lava snakeman who turned his head out found that there was no hidden Luen at all. He immediately rushed towards Luen without hesitation, like a sharp arrow.
It seems that the relationship between creatures in the inner world is many times simpler than that in the real world. If it is not a hunter, then it is the prey!
Swish!
Until it was within a few meters of Luen, which was considered to be very close, the lava snakeman opened his mouth, showing dense fangs, and swallowed him in one gulp. Luen even had the leisure to observe that there was a crocodile-like structure deep in the other party's throat to prevent swallowing magma into his body.
Boom!
The next second, the aggressive lava snakeman seemed to hit an indestructible wall, and his huge body flew backwards and smashed into the big hole he dug. The surging undercurrent stirred the magma in this area into chaos.
Lu En retracted his palm, and in the palm wrapped in spiritual light, a drop of dark red blood shone brightly and quickly sank into his palm.
Soon, Lu En's figure began to expand rapidly, the spiritual light on his body disappeared, replaced by fine dark red scales, and a lava snakeman exactly the same as before appeared in the depths of the magma.
"The eye structure of these snakemen is quite special."
The huge lava snakeman looked at himself, tried to swing his arms and tail a few times, and then cast his eyes around, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The eyeballs of these lava snakemen are covered with a thin film, giving them an extremely wide field of vision. To Luen, it feels like he is in real water. But what is more special is that in the vision of these snakemen, there are strange lines in the magma, some large, some small, some broken, some continuous, which is extremely magical.
