Chapter 338 Volcano Eruption!

Chapter 338 Volcano... Erupts!

"Give it a good care of its old age? This is a good idea." Lu Yuan nodded in agreement.

"When it dies, you can cook the dragon's body and skin it. How cruel, Miss Conch. I didn't expect you to be so treacherous. The purpose of raising it is just to eat a bite of meat."

"I... I didn't!"

Conch's pretty face flushed. She had never thought of this before. It was just your own imagination!

But to be honest, if the dragon really died, how to use the body would be a real problem.

Such a big guy must be valuable. The meat and skin are worth thousands of spiritual charms... It can make humans a fortune.

But... the moral burden is also a burden!

In the Green City, many people are unwilling to eat this body.

Just like raising a panda, isn't it disgusting to eat meat after the bear dies?

"Well, let's talk about it later. If it doesn't work, let's hold a referendum... Anyway, I, Old Lu, don't need this bite of food..." Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly.

…

Time passed quickly. Although the “taming plan” failed, other projects went quite smoothly.

In the seventh month, the exploration team found a reserve warehouse of “large puppet technology”.

The inventory in the warehouse alone was valued at 1209 Lingyun after evaluation!

What does this amount mean?

It was more than the materials in the treasury combined! It made everyone’s eyes sparkle and full of the light of money.

In the twelfth month, the large unit in the nuclear fusion power station was moved out.

The area occupied by the machine was as large as 4 football fields!

Only one nuclear fusion power generation device was needed to meet the electricity needs of 5 million people. It was really terrifying.

Unfortunately, it was soaked in seawater...

But no matter what, the structure of this machine was indeed in front of people. With the help of the universal factory, there might be a day for repair.

In the thirteenth month, the freezers in the underground shelter were almost moved by Lao Lu.

A total of 182,211 freezers... no survivors.

Most of the bodies inside were cremated, and a few with stories and that seemed to be more sympathetic were placed in the museum along with the freezer... Well, it sounds impolite, but tragedy is always like a lion on the grassland, reminding the sheep that have lost their sense of crisis.

In the fourteenth month, humans miraculously found a material warehouse, and the extraordinary materials inside were worth up to 2,500 spiritual rhymes!

It also included spiritual crystals worth 500 spiritual rhymes, and a legendary material, "Flame Essence", which may be a legendary material from a volcano, and it was just cheap for humans.

"Totaling this, there are already 7,000 spiritual rhymes?!" Lu Yuan was secretly shocked when he heard it, his head was dizzy, and the surging happiness made him want to stay here forever and didn't want to leave.

In less than two years, he earned 7,000 spiritual rhymes of materials!

You have to know that the annual income of humans is actually just a little over 100...

This is the meaning of the third-level civilization ruins!

The greedy demon god was ready to move... He was thinking about whether he could embezzle some things and take them for himself?

Well, these 7,000 supplies are mostly low-grade materials, mostly inferior and ordinary, which are not very meaningful to Lu Yuan.

These things are not consumables such as meat, eggs and milk, so the overall strength of mankind still cannot make a big leap.

But it is obvious that the major laboratories, including the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, can get significantly more research resources.

The number of various fixed assets has also increased significantly.

The craftsmen who have been idle for a while can also warm up their hands again and make some equipment.

Therefore, for a long time in the future, the development speed of mankind will be greatly accelerated!

"It's a pity that there are not many extraordinary creatures around here. They should all be eaten by the old dragon." The young exploration team members are also eager to fight and are in high spirits.

"Keep your voice down, it's smart!"

"Separate!" The Mirage Dragon, lying one kilometer away, burped and looked at the expedition team with a pair of eyes. What are you whispering about?

"There should be some hidden warehouses, but we haven't found them."

"Even if we earn a thousand spiritual charms a year, it's much faster than digging for treasure outside."

"Yeah... It's a pity that the large seal can't be dug. Otherwise, it would be a real fortune."

Looking at their high enthusiasm, Lu Yuan also had a satisfied smile on his face.

He looked back at the lonely Mirage Dragon... Well, since the last recruitment failed, the relationship between the Mirage Dragon and humans has become a little subtle.

Humans continue to feed it, but they don't mind it, just like raising a small animal.

But it seems to always have some knots in its heart, so it acquiesces to people's bigger moves in the ruins of this city.

...

However, at this moment, suddenly, the variable... happened!

The ground shook violently, and a large group of soldiers staggered and fell to the ground.

People were all shocked at the same time, and their pupils widened at the first time, and saw a thick smoke coming out of the crater not far away.

The surging energy comes from the earth, slowly brewing from deep within the earth's core.

This energy was so terrifying that the entire sea surface shook slightly, just like the whispers of an ancient beast before breaking through the cage.

Unknown heat rose from the earth, forming patches of thick fog.

The temperature around began to rise continuously.

In just a short moment, Lu Yuan reacted and took out the loudspeaker and shouted: "Everyone! Ride the flying corps immediately and leave here!!"

"Repeat it, the volcano is about to erupt, everyone, leave here!"

This day... has finally come!

In order to deal with volcanic eruptions, humans have actually practiced many times. There are highly mobile "flying dragon" insects near the volcano, and a flying dragon can carry 20 to 30 people.

And the diving brigade in the ocean has a "sky fortress" to pick them up.

Everyone began to fly hurriedly into the air and prepare to evacuate.

"You... want to follow us?"

"If you don't go, we... can only go by ourselves."

Seeing that the animal experts were still persuading him, Lu Yuan also sighed in his heart.

I tried my best, so let it be.

"Follow me!"

The Mirage Dragon, seeing the volcano about to erupt, raised his head high and roared loudly!

"Roar!!!"

People saw the Mirage Dragon move, the light blue scales opened and closed with roars, the dragon's body twisted and flew into the sky.

The next second, the volcanic seal of the entire city was activated, and rays of light shot up into the sky, forming a strange shape like the Bagua!

A full 1,500 square kilometers, huge, yet exquisite.

This huge city is like the lid of a pressure cooker, tightly covering this disaster area that should have erupted long ago.

The eyes of the Mirage Dragon exuded a cold light, it... is the eye of this seal!

Only its freezing ability can resist the terrifying power of the volcano and slowly vent this restless energy.

In the past hundreds and thousands of years, it has done similar work many times.

It must not let the volcano erupt!

Otherwise, that underground shelter will be completely swallowed by the magma.

However, this time, something is different.

It is old and no longer the same as when it was young.

It seems a little powerless.

But the power from the ground is endless, like a compressed spring, stronger each time.

Gray fragments of memory flashed in its mind. When it first guarded this place, the power of the seal was very strong. It was the crystallization of the wisdom of the source fire civilization.

Then came the era disaster. It hid in the deepest part of the magma, in a strange place, protecting itself through the power of freezing and the alien space, and fell into a deep sleep... This is necessary to survive the disaster. You know the disaster, and the disaster also knows you.

After waking up, the era changed, the seal was broken, and the volcano could erupt at any time. Everything can only rely on its own strength.

Every time, it succeeded...

And this time, it will be no exception!

The movement of the ground veins became more and more violent, and the brightness of the seal gradually increased. This is the confrontation between the majestic nature and the last creation of the "source fire civilization".

"Boom!"

Thunder and lightning, the roar of the volcano and the roar of the mirage dragon mixed together.

In the mist full of sulfur, Lu Yuan seemed to see the fruits of labor and the will to survive of thousands of lives...

And...

A desperate dragon!

It was trying its best to activate its life energy desperately, intending to calm the increasingly violent volcano.

At this moment, no one would persuade anything, just staring blankly in the sky.

The "flying fortress" quickly went away...

"Will it succeed?" Someone murmured to himself.

"It could have lived longer, but it was the repeated confrontations that made it age prematurely."

"Yes."

Then, lead-gray dark clouds covered the sky, and heavy rain suddenly hit. The rain and the smoke from the volcano were mixed together, and the thick white fog formed a frustrated crying face.

The eyes of the mirage dragon burst into a dazzling red, and in the thick fog, it was frozen for hundreds of miles.

The volcano became more and more violent, with magma rolling out. Its breathing became heavier, its bones and muscles twisted, and the tremendous energy poured into the huge seal.

Not enough...

Still not enough...

In the rainstorm, the desperate dragon suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and this ball of blood turned into the purest freezing power.

Even if the civilization had died long ago, it was still guarding the last hope.

The lightning and thunder in the sky were like a sad elegy, and the dragon roars were like the last swan song.

The crowd sitting on the flying insects and escaping could not help but mourn in their hearts when they saw this scene.

The power of the natural disaster was indeed extremely terrible. Even if it was just that little bit of leaked breath, it was enough to daunt people.

And the last remaining seal of civilization was also touching. The huge seal covering 1,500 square kilometers was like a huge hand holding up the sky, forcibly suppressing the boiling magma.

"When we cross the ocean and come to this big volcano, we will see a dragon that is good at breathing out clouds and mist. It is very big and guards its baby like a madman."

"Don't touch its treasure, or it will anger it and eat you in one bite..." People judged this dragon in this way, and their tone was full of sighs, and they would never forget the scenes before their eyes.

But the children of later generations, who have not witnessed it with their own eyes, find it difficult to understand what the so-called "treasure" is, and may really mistakenly think that the dragon is a greedy creature.

This is a pity...

...

It is unknown how long it took, but the volcanic riot gradually subsided.

The biting cold spread throughout the air, and the sea water within a hundred miles was all frozen into ice.

At this moment, the rainstorm also stopped, and the heavy clouds cracked a gap, and the weak sunset slanted down, illuminating the ice surface with an orange-red color.

It seemed to be an ordinary day, and nothing seemed to have happened. Only those who have experienced this incident can know the thrilling experience.

"It seems to have won again..."

"Yes, but it is even older."

Many people breathed a sigh of relief, but were also worried.

This time it was indeed calmed down, but what about the next time?

The seal covering the entire city was even more tattered, and its remaining power was gone; and the Mirage Dragon used up its last strength and collapsed in the place it was guarding, vomiting blood continuously.

What to do next time?

"You go back to the Sky City and have a good rest, Miss Conch and I will go down to take a look. By the way, we will treat it." Lu Yuan ordered, and took Conch and jumped onto a "flying dragon" and turned around.

"Commander-in-chief... Should we go?" An animal expert shouted nervously.

"You go back first, the volcano is still unstable and may erupt at any time, just give me some medicine... I have the ability to save my life, and I will send its situation by telegram."

Hearing him say this, everyone stopped trying to comfort him and handed the items to Lu Yuan.

...

After a while, the flying dragon retracted its wings and landed smoothly with a "crash".

The Mirage Dragon not far away had no strength left, lying limply on the ground like a paralyzed loach. Even when it heard the arrival of Lu Yuan and Hailuo, it could not raise its head.

It could no longer make the proud expression of raising its head and tail like in the past.

Its scales were eroded, probably because it jumped into the crater and sealed the volcano, with large patches of burn marks.

Ms. Hailuo trotted over and examined its body with some heartache. Her pretty face looked a little gloomy, and she said dryly: "It has overdrawn its vitality and is exhausted. If it was not for the vitality of the anomaly to be strong enough, it would have died completely long ago."

"Now, except for a head and a heart, the other organs are slowly decaying."

"Even with our best medicine, can't it be saved?"
