Chapter 63: Re-entry into the Volcano
A few days later, Zhou Chen once again set foot in the volcanic area. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This time, there is another beautiful girl beside him, which is naturally Huang Xuan'er.
She originally wanted to continue to wear a straw hat to hide her gender, but was stopped by Zhou Chen.
He believes that Xiao Huang's previous image should have been known by that organization, and now it is safest to change back to the original girl's dress.
Xiao Huang was also scared because of a person before, but now that he was accompanied by Zhou Chen, he listened to him and took off his straw hat.
"Click, click. ”
The thunder rat seemed to be unable to stand the heat of the volcanic zone, and lay on its stomach sickly on the shoulders of Little Yellow, and from time to time let out its characteristic cry, expressing its complaint about the harsh environment.
"Xiaoji, bear with me, the beauty didn't say anything, and Brother Zhou's little bear cub, it is much stronger than you. ”
Xiao Huang comforted the thunder rat, and the "beauty" in her mouth was the horned ant queen she put in her jacket pocket. As for the cubs, they have adapted to the high temperature and basically have no discomfort.
Then, Xiao Huang asked Zhou Chen again: "Brother Zhou, when you come here, do you also want to catch that fire feather vermilion bird?"
"No, even those high-level contractors can't catch it, so what do I have to do to fight it. ”
Zhou Chen shook his head, he came over again, just to verify the guess in his heart and see what was in the depths of the No. 13 volcano.
He had seen last time that the Fire Feather Suzaku had been hovering over Volcano 13 and had not flown away, and there must have been some reason.
"And didn't the official website of Chiyan Island already say that the Fire Feather Vermilion Bird had already flown away from this island, and there was no way to catch it anymore. ”
Zhou Chen has been paying attention to this incident.
Although no specific information was posted on the website, he speculated that some of the several high-level contractors who went to capture the Fire Feather Suzaku that day were already dead.
It's just that this kind of news is generally concealed in order not to break the tall image of the contractor in the hearts of ordinary people.
"And Xiao Li, I'm afraid I haven't escaped this accident. ”
Zhou Chen also didn't search the list of those who died by magma that day, but in that case, Xiao Li and his two little friends, their chances of survival were almost zero.
"Well, I also read the official news, saying that the Fire Feather Suzaku was forced away by several contractors. However, many people don't believe it and want to try their luck. ”
Xiao Huang followed Zhou Chen to this volcanic area, and met a lot of contractors along the way, all with the mentality of picking up leaks, wanting to find the fire feather Vermilion Bird that they thought was injured.
Many people have speculated that the Fire Feather Suzaku fought with several high-level contractors on the island and did not retreat, but hid somewhere. It's just that this monster is too rare and powerful, so the official deliberately spreads false news to dispel the thoughts of most contractors. Then a few high-level contractors can secretly search for it.
Xiao Huang was obviously inclined to this situation, so he also thought that Zhou Chen was coming for the Fire Feather Vermilion Bird.
Zhou Chen didn't explain much, but walked towards Volcano 13 with a clear purpose.
About two hours later, Zhou Chen arrived at his destination and broke directly into the cave.
Due to the incident a few days ago, a large area of magma turned into stone could be seen in the cave at this time, which was cooled by several high-level contractors at that time with water-based demon beasts.
Many passages in the cave were also more or less blocked by the cooled magma. It's just that these are not difficult for the contractors, they can release the demon beasts, use brute force to directly break them, and open the passage again.
Before Zhou Chen, there were many contractors who had already come here. Some of them thought that the Fire Feather Vermilion Bird might have returned to the interior of the mountain, while others had the same idea as Zhou Chen, and came here to find other valuable things that might exist.
With the existence of these people, the blocked passage has long been opened, and Zhou Chen and Xiao Huang are unimpeded all the way.
The two continued to go deeper, and they were not attacked by the demon beasts, thinking that after this accident, the demon beasts in the mountain were almost extinct, and it took a lot of time to recover.
Because he was not afraid of being attacked by demon beasts, Zhou Chen simply turned on the lighting function of the watch, so that it was more efficient to hurry. Moreover, Xiao Huang's horned ant queen has the talent of "spiritual enchantment", and she is very sensitive to the dangers around her, and she is basically not afraid of emergencies.
"Brother Zhou, someone is approaching in front. ”
At a certain moment, Xiao Huang learned about the situation ahead through communicating with the soul of the horned ant queen and told Zhou Chen about it.
Zhou Chen nodded to show that he understood, he didn't mean to avoid the other party, and still maintained the speed at this time.
"What man!?"
After a while, due to the shortening of the distance, the other party should have discovered Zhou Chen and the others through the exploration of soul power. But he didn't feel as calm as Zhou Chen, but asked loudly very nervously.
"Boom!"
The Thunder Rat is a relatively sensitive demon beast, and was startled by the other party's shouting, and its hair stood on end all of a sudden.
"Xiaoji, don't be nervous. ”
Xiao Huang appeased it, and saw that Zhou Chen still walked forward without changing his face, so he didn't think much about it and continued to follow.
"Stop!"
Because Zhou Chen didn't stop, both sides quickly fell into each other's field of vision, and when the other party saw that there were two people on Zhou Chen's side, they became even more nervous, so they warned loudly.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way. ”
Zhou Chen had already seen it clearly, opposite was a fat man in his twenties, with a four-star velvet rabbit at his feet. This person is so nervous, he must have gained something in the cave, and he is afraid of being robbed. It can be seen from the bulging backpack behind him.
It's just that the passage is so wide, Zhou Chen wants to move forward, so naturally he can't stop, and he can't bypass him.
"Okay, I'm not in the way, you go first!"
The fat man also found out about the embarrassment at this time, but he was frightened by Zhou Chen's tone, and he didn't dare to collide again, so he could only stick to the edge of the stone wall as much as possible, so that Zhou Chen and the two could pass first.
Seeing this, Zhou Chen continued to walk forward, and Xiao Huang followed him closely, and in the fat man's fear, the two sides passed by.
After this episode, Zhou Chen and the two never met other contractors again, and according to the map displayed on their watches, they went all the way to the deepest part of the volcano.
In the deepest part of this, there is actually a huge cave, in which there are many boulders, stalagmites, rock pillars, etc., blocking the sight of Zhou Chen and the others.
However, there is no need to look at it, the two of them know that there are many contractors here.
Bang!
Ding! Ding!
The sound came from different directions, and it was easy for the two of them to think that these contractors were probably chiseling stones and stone walls.
"There's a mine here?"
Zhou Chen understood that what could make these contractors couldn't help it, what was mined on the spot would definitely not be ordinary iron ore and copper ore, at least it would have to be spar ore, or even rarer gems of various attributes.
"The fat man before should have mined a lot of ore here, and seeing that he was so nervous, I am afraid that he got one or two rare gems. ”
Thinking so, Zhou Chen observed his surroundings as he walked towards the nearest place where a sound came from.
