Chapter 480: Event Details

Originally, the Holy City had a good grasp of the Flame Mountain, but just nearly a year ago, something strange suddenly happened, that is, the people who often mined the mining veins disappeared inexplicably.

Although the poisonous fire was controlled before, there were also people who were not paying attention to it from time to time who were eroded by the poisonous fire, which was very strange and there was no effective way to get rid of it, and after being poisoned, he was basically sentenced to death.

After being invaded by this poisonous fire, people will fall into a deep hallucination and cannot extricate themselves, in this hallucination, people will experience all the desires in their hearts are satisfied, resulting in the heart of the poisoned person is very happy and comfortable, but in this extremely beautiful illusion, the poisonous fire will continue to absorb all the energy of the poisoned person.

As long as a person is poisoned by poisonous fire, all the energy in his body will be absorbed by the poisonous fire in less than a day, and even the essence and blood in his life and body will not be left, and the person will become a dried corpse. The poisonous fire that absorbs the energy will run out of the human body and merge into the ore of the Flame Mountain again, enhancing the fire energy in the ore.

Previously, the Holy City had figured out a way to find out where this poisonous fire existed in advance so as to prevent and avoid the poisonous fire in advance, so there was no major event for so many years.

It's just that less than a year ago, the people in the vein disappeared one after another, and finally attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the Holy City, at first everyone just thought that the disappearance of these people was because of loneliness and fear, so they fled temporarily, and then the number of missing people gradually increased, and some people began to feel that something was wrong.

Originally, if someone was corrupted by poisonous fire, although they would die, they would still leave a dried corpse, but later people found out that although they felt terrible, they were still mentally prepared, and they would continue to mine ore as if nothing was wrong after burying them.

This time, it was an inexplicable disappearance, leaving no trace, and these missing people were also found a long time later, and when someone went to look for them, nothing was found at all.

After that, the number of missing people surged in a short period of time, and when it reached the triple digits, the upper echelons finally couldn't sit still, and they invited many people to help find and explore, and laid a net of countless people in the veins to try to find the cause.

Later, it lived up to expectations and was found out by the high-level officials of the Holy City, but the result made everyone feel that things were in trouble.

Originally, there was only one green poisonous fire in this flame mountain, but now everyone found that this poisonous fire seemed to have evolved into another form, that is, poisonous mist.

Just like Gu Yue and the others saw before, I don't know why there are such small poisonous insects in this vein, these insects are nothing, the terrible thing is that after they explode, there will suddenly be dozens of times the poisonous mist of the body spraying out, the toxicity of these poisonous fogs is the same as poisonous fire, and it is even more unpredictable.

Now that nearly a year has passed, these things are no secret, but at the beginning, the Holy City lost a lot of people because of this poisonous insect, and later, although it also found reasons and ways to avoid these poisonous insects, the loss of the Holy City was still much greater than before, the reason is that the poisonous fog is pervasive, and this poisonous insect is also very small, the energy is extremely weak, and it is difficult for people to detect.

If someone accidentally steps on a poisonous insect, the body will be covered by poisonous mist in an instant, whether you can survive depends on your fate, the most terrible thing is that the previous poisonous fire erosion only turned people into a dry corpse, but this poisonous insect came out and the poisoned people would not even have bones left, all of them were eaten and swallowed by this insect.

This poisonous insect is very similar to poisonous fire, and every time it swallows some energy, it will return to the ore vein to sleep and digest for a period of time, and integrate the energy in the body into the ore.

Originally, everyone thought that this matter would pass like this, just like when the poisonous fire was first discovered, and they could find a way to avoid it and continue to mine ore safely.

But a few months ago, the situation suddenly turned bad, and the number of poisonous insects sometimes increased exponentially, crawling all over the veins in a day, and sometimes suddenly disappearing, and not a single one could be seen, which caused all mages to start to have a headache.

Later, the Holy City had no choice but to temporarily evacuate everyone inside, and the Holy City Elder led many helpers from the Holy City to enter the vein to find the reason, and after many efforts, the facts were finally clarified.

In the deepest part of this Flame Mountain vein, there is a huge poisonous insect, although it looks similar, it is countless times larger than an ordinary poisonous insect, which makes everyone surprised, with this poisonous insect controlling other small poisonous insects, the entire vein is like a restless bomb, which may explode at any time.

No one was sure about this huge poisonous insect, so the Holy City began to close the Flame Mountain and organize personnel to recruit support, preparing to send a powerful elite force into the depths of the vein to kill the poisonous insect.

Although it is the depth of the ore vein, it is actually only about half of the Flame Mountain, and after so many years, the vein of the Flame Mountain has only been mined halfway, and no one has entered the deeper depths at all, nor has it been explored.

The reason why no one has gone down to explore is because the ore vein resources are abundant, and there is no need to worry about it, and the second is because the fire energy in the depths is too powerful, even the Holy City Elder who majored in fire mana can at most explore less than 100 meters down in the deepest part of the ore vein, and it is even more impossible for other low-level mining mages to go down, even if they are at the bottom of the ore vein, they can't stay longer, and they need to be replaced to rest after working for a while.

After preparing for a period of time, the Holy City finally gathered its manpower, and the others were full of confidence and entered the depths of the Flame Mountain. That is, not long after Gu Yue and Feiyu broke up, Feiyu joined these people to kill poisonous insects together.

But what everyone didn't expect was that after fighting the poisonous insects here for a long time, they found that the rapid crushing they had imagined before did not exist at all, and even after a long time of fighting, everyone began to fall into disadvantage.

This is very terrible, after the original confidence was destroyed, everyone was afraid, and gradually so many people were forced into this hall by this poisonous worm.

At the last moment, Feiyu and several other masters stabilized the situation, found the weakness of the poisonous insects, and tried to make a desperate bet to survive, otherwise everyone would die here.

So the scene that Gu Yue and the others saw before happened, everyone attacked the giant insect together, and the explosion caused by the attack also caused the collapse of the Flame Mountain, and all the ore vein passages were destroyed, what everyone didn't know was that in the eyes of the people outside, the Flame Mountain actually fell into the ground with a short section.

And the only ones who survived the explosion were Flying Fish and this Qi Sheng, and the previous half-android was only the last move, if the people here were all dead, at least someone would pass on the information, so it would also be considered to give some help to the later generations to help them not die in vain
