Chapter 15: But a mortal fire
For Rosen, no matter who the pursuer is, the result is the same, and he is going to kill him anyway.
If weighed carefully, it is clear that the benefits of killing Viken are much more.
After killing Viken, he may gain new free talent points and become stronger. After Viken dies, they destroy the corpse, and it will take time for Bloodrose to notice his disappearance, and even more so to find the murderer.
If the Blood Rose's tracker is unlucky, he may not be able to find Rosen for the rest of his life. Even if he did find it, a long time would have passed, and by then, Rosen might have had great power.
These considerations, Rosen has long thought clearly. Therefore, he was simply indifferent to Viken's threat.
After collecting all the missing minced meat and burning it all into black beads, Lawson walked out of the cave, and Anne followed.
Outside the cave, Lawson walked around the perimeter of the cave, crouching down to check the rock walls of the cave from time to time, occasionally nodding his head inexplicably.
After walking like this, Rosen came to the top of the cave, and he pointed to a stone and said, "Annie, I need to make a hole here, open it, and get it all the way to the cave, can you do it?" ”
Anne crouched down, touched the rock with her hand, found that it was ordinary mudstone, jumped off the rock, went to the cave to check, and determined that the target rock was only about 30 centimeters thick. With her strength, it is not difficult to dig through.
She picked up the half-broken steel sword: "No problem, how big is it to dig?" ”
Lawson didn't answer right away, he went back to the cave again, picked up the bamboo pole, and carefully measured the size of the cave.
The volume in the cave is not large, it is inverted funnel-shaped, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, irregular circle below, with a diameter of less than 3 meters and a height of about 2.5 meters. It can be said that this is a natural small iron-making furnace.
After measuring, Lawson walked out of the cave again and drew a half-meter circle on the rock with charcoal: "Dig through this weak area." ”
Anne jumped on the top of the cave, and with a strong force, the broken sword pierced the 30 centimeter-thick mudstone, she shouted again, and with both hands, the steel sword drew a circle in the mudstone, and with a 'boom', all the mudstone in the passage fell into the cave, and an exit with a diameter of half a meter appeared on the top of the cave.
The whole process looks as easy as cutting tofu.
After the entrance of the cave was opened, the hot air accumulated by the bonfire burning inside the cave suddenly had a source and rushed out of the cave one after another, but in this way, the cave was under negative pressure again. As a result, cold air flows into the cave from the cave entrance below.
As soon as you enter and exit, an air circulation is formed, and the campfire in the cave receives a more abundant supply of oxygen, the flame rises slightly, and the temperature rises.
This is exactly what Rosen wants to see, but in order to burn Viken, the temperature of the campfire alone is not enough, it must be more violent.
He jumped down from the rock and beckoned to Anne: "Come, let's move all the packages and luggage out of the cave, and drag out the bear corpses, and it is better to empty the cave." Then we took all the firewood into the cave...... Oh, by the way, take Viken's head out and put it in a place with a good view of the hole, and I'm going to show him how I burned him! ”
When Viken heard this, he almost exploded in anger on the spot: "Little thing, I should have broken your neck last night!" ”
Rosen smiled: "It's a pity, you can't buy regret medicine in the world." ”
On the other side, Anne understood Rosen's intentions, and the current cave looked like an oversized farmhouse stove.
She did as she was told, and took out her luggage and brought in the firewood, and when the firewood was done, she took Viken's head out and stuck it in a stick at the mouth of the cave.
Finally, she turned to Rosen and asked, "Is this firewood enough?" ”
Lawson estimated the capacity inside the cave and shook his head: "Not enough, far from enough, let's pick it up again, we must fill the entire cave." ”
"I'll do it."
Before she could finish speaking, Anne ran into the forest.
Rosen was not idle, he built a small perforated platform in the middle of the cave with gravel blocks, and placed all the pieces of vampire flesh that had been burned into black beads on the platform.
He did it very carefully and meticulously, and not a single black bead was missed.
Viken looked at Lawson's actions coldly, and sneered again and again: "Hmph, a large stove? If the furnace could burn me, someone would have done it a long time ago! ”
Rosen smiled and asked, "What if there was another bellows for the stove?" ”
"Bellows? Do you mean the furnace where the blacksmith makes iron? ”
Rosen asked, "Almost, the blacksmith's furnace can burn the steel red, or even melt it, it should burn you to death, right?" ”
Viken laughed with relief: "Heh~ I thought you had some great skills, it turned out to be a blacksmith furnace." If that's all you have, then I'd advise you to take a break as soon as possible. ”
"Why?" Lawson asked with a smile.
Viken sneered, "About 70 years ago, I tried to put my hand into a high-temperature blacksmith furnace filled with molten iron, and guess what? ”
Rosen thought for a moment and said, "Your hands are scorched, you put them in a bucket and soak them for a while, and then they are back to normal, right?" ”
"Pretty much, but it's more serious. I soaked for two days and two nights, and then sucked up the blood of all the living creatures in a village, and then I fully recovered. Viken laughed, and suddenly said, "Oh, no, there is more than one village, should it be two, or three?" I don't remember exactly, but it seemed to me that you humans were a wine bottle, and I was an alcoholic. It's like you human drunkards who never count bottles when you drink, right? ”
Lawson nodded, "Yes." ”
Viken raised an eyebrow and asked, "What are you going to do now?" Give up, or continue? ”
Rosen also laughed, gritting his teeth: "Of course it is to continue." I'm going to use this stove to verify if you're lying. ”
"Ignorant, you have no idea how powerful I am!" Viken laughed contemptuously.
At this time, there was a sound of 'bang~bang' in the forest, Lawson turned his head to look, and saw Anne directly dragging a dead tree back, the trunk of which was more than 50 centimeters in diameter and more than 15 meters high, and Anne dragged it back with one hand.
When she got closer, Anne put down the tree, patted the dust off her hands, and smiled, "Is this enough enough?" ”
"That's enough, but it's best to chop this firewood into firewood, each one should not exceed the size of my forearm, and the size of each one should be as consistent as possible."
"No problem, look at me."
Anne used the Broken Steel Sword as a hatchet and flew up and down, but in just 20 minutes, a dead tree that the two of them hugged together had become a large pile of firewood. Finally, she carried all the firewood into the cave.
According to Rosen's instructions, she deliberately made the firewood staggered next to the stone pile in the center of the cave, so as to ensure the amount of burning materials and the smooth flow of air.
After all the firewood was in the cave, except for the air passage that was specially left, the rest of the cave was filled with firewood.
You're all set.
Rosen walked to a meter away from the entrance of the cave, stood still, looked at the firewood in the cave, and whispered to the vampire next to him: "Vampire, do you think I can succeed?" ”
Viken looked disdainful: "It's just a mortal flame." ”
