Chapter 263: The Festival (7)

The gray-black smoke and dust were swirled high into the air by the scorching wind, forming a thick and long translucent cylinder, which soared from the eastern crown to the sky, and finally disappeared into the blue clear sky, today was the last day of spellcasting, and each caster was exhausted, and the fire elemental pets they summoned were not as bright and bright as a few days ago, one or two of them were almost the same color as the smoke, only in the eyes and minions there were still bright spots like charcoal fire- They gazed longingly at the massive obsidian disk, its center already a deep purple, and the casters of the temperature had to back a hundred feet to keep themselves from burning, and its brightness was almost as bright as the rising sun in the sky— The light that humans and humanoids can't look at has no effect on the fire elemental creatures at all, and the scorching energy contained in it is what the fire elemental creatures need most, but until their masters break the contract with them, they can't return to their homeland even if they are only a finger away from the plane pool connected to the fire elemental plane, and the only thing they can do is drag their bodies to breathe, and draw a little bit of life from the energy that has not yet been swallowed by the fire elemental plane pool.

Two mages waved their wrists, and the fire elemental creatures they summoned were dissolved, and they jumped into the fire elemental plane pool as if they had been pardoned, but when the third mage wanted to make a move, he heard a sneer, and then the two mages who still had a little mercy showed a little uneasiness and remorse, if it was on the mainland, their actions would not be questioned, and perhaps they would be praised, but in the chaotic dragonfire islands, this can only show that their hearts are weak, which may cause them to become the prey of others first。

The third mage put his hand back into his sleeve. The fire elemental creature he had summoned was a toad, larger than the mage who liked young slave girls, but now it was dying, lying just a few steps away from the obsidian disk, and Cremar's eight-eyed spider crawled towards it with a weak croak. To everyone's small surprise, the spider, which had grown to the height of a human waist, pounced on it, opened its mouthparts fiercely, and swallowed it into its stomach.

The third mage screamed, but before he could do anything, the spider's eight feet stomped on the ground, leaving eight small, shiny imprints, and a menacing burst of light blue flames erupted from the end of its abdomen.

The two masters looked at each other.

"You...... Well, has it been terminated by you?" asked the toad's owner uneasily.

"Nope. The spirit of the other world said, "That's my pet." ”

The fire elemental creatures summoned by mages and warlocks are also known as pets. But they knew it was only to avoid spell failure, but since the young black-haired mage said so, it meant that the fire elemental creature was the kind of real thing, not summoned as a sacrifice, not as a test material or a consumable for a shield dagger, but a loyal servant who was truly familiar with his master.

The soul of the other world thought about it, and the current situation was probably that the Erha raised by himself suddenly became wild. Swallowed other people's little hamsters, although other people's little hamsters were raised to run the wheel to generate electricity. I don't mean to think of it as a friend or a relative, but you can't say that you are not at fault at all, and your Erha is still whimpering and taunting him.

The black-haired spellcaster reached into the dimensional bag under the mage's wary gaze, grabbed a gem and handed it to the other party—the gems and gold coins he had inherited from Mentor Beavis in the White Tower had all disappeared with the leap of Asmodeios, and these were the new colors offered by the merchants, and they were pieces of alexandrite of excellent color. Known in his plane as alexandrite or alexandrite, it is as green as sea water in the sun and as red as a maiden's lips in the candle at night, and this gem is often used by mages to make runic seals that grant luck, favor, or protection, and the larger the individual, the more magical energy it can contain. The alexandrite handed out by the otherworldly soul was the size of a baby's palm.

This kind of gem is rarely seen even by the caster of the lord's side, of course, the owner of the big toad can't refuse, he stretched out his hand impatiently, and suddenly paused in the air, as if remembering something, instead put his hand to his lips and coughed, cast a spell to release the hapless fire elemental creature, and then picked up the gem from the palm of the black-haired spellcaster with a helpless look: "We are clear, Your Excellency." He said.

The otherworldly soul nodded, and his spider jumped into the obsidian disk almost at the same time, returning to the fire elemental plane it was familiar with.

The fire elemental plane is one of the most unfriendly of all the inner planes, but it is also extremely lively and favored, where the flames are everywhere and have different colors depending on the temperature, and it is difficult to tell the ground or the sky in it, because the whole plane is like a raging fire- If you had to divide the ground in the conventional sense, perhaps you could think of the gently flowing flames as the so-called footholds, which took on a rich blood-red color, that is, the kind of flames that could melt aluminum, which was the hottest of the fire elemental plane, and the brighter cherry-red or orange flames that flowed like mist and water on the dark red planes and knolls, and whose temperatures could melt gold, silver, and copper, this "current" There are often small shiny golden fish swimming in it, but of course, they are not real fish, but more scorching flames, which have always been the favorite of dwarves and gnomes, for only the flames of this color can be cast in cast iron and steel— There are also mountains in the fire elemental plane, they are dark red at the bottom and golden in the middle, and the peaks are as white as the edge of the plane's celestial dome, like clear snow, without impurities, judging by the color alone, you might think that it is cold, but unfortunately, on the contrary, it is hotter than the ones we have seen before- The edge of the sky on the Fire Elemental Plane is pearly white, but most of the sky is a dazzling cyan or purple color, with a few faint longitudinal marks in between, as if someone had wiped it a few times after completing the painting...... Only a few travelers would know that the flames that float in the vault can melt the most stubborn Mithril and Adamantite. The colorless parts are said to be unable to withstand the burning of even the bodies of the gods.

As soon as the little spider jumped into the fire elemental plane, it vomited, and the toad it assimilated into fell into a small cherry-red "pool of water". Its limbs had melted, even its eyes and mouth had lost their original shape, and the little spider looked at it worriedly, and after waiting for a long time, it heard a lazy, slow voice: "Quack......"

It waited at that entrance for a while. But to its disappointment, no other fire elemental creatures were released by their masters, and it walked around the toad a few times, and saw that the flames were reshaping the form, and only then expanded its body again - in the fire elemental plane, it didn't need to be as cautious as it was in the main plane, and now its body was a little thin, but it was a thousand feet in size even with its feet, which made it travel much faster. It took only a little time to find the "person" it was looking for. ”

Fire elemental beings of various shapes will gradually form in the fire elemental plane, they have the appearance of creatures in the main plane, but they are still turbulent and violent elements inside, but their temperament is simple, straightforward and simple. If you see a cunning or changeable fire elemental spirit, it is very likely that it has a master, and after signing a contract with a human or humanoid, the fire elemental creature will gain the most valuable wisdom and experience for the elemental creature from its owner. Personalities also gradually tend to their owners over time.

Although the Lich has criticized the fire elemental creatures summoned by the souls of the other world more than once for being more and more stupid, the little spider does not think so. It loves and takes pride in its master, and earnestly learns everything it feels needs to learn, for example, other fire elemental creatures don't pretend to swallow their own kind in their stomachs - fire elemental creatures will occasionally assimilate with each other, and sometimes the stronger one will completely devour the weaker one. And continue to be the same. If the two are similar in strength, then after assimilation, they will basically change into the appearance of another creature, but you say that it has already reached the stomach and then spit it out - this is extremely rare even in the countless years after the birth of the fire elemental plane.

The mountains in the plane are very small when viewed from a distance, as if they can be picked up and held in the palm of your hand at any time. But in fact, it is far larger than any mountain in the main plane, after all, the main plane has gravity, and the mountain will collapse due to the traction of gravity when it reaches a certain height, and the fire element plane has gravity, but gravity will not affect the mountain of flames, so it can stretch to the height it wants, and the mountain that the little spider arrives at is still one of the smaller ones, but compared to the little spider, they are like a grain of sand to a desert, but our little eight feet don't have to worry about not being able to find the object it is looking for, after making sure that it is probably here, the little spider waved its chelicerae and crackled them。

It probably only takes time to burn down a city, and that "person" appears, and in the fire elemental plane, except for those fire djinns and fire dwarves who are outside creatures, it is difficult for you to see humanoid fire elemental creatures, but if you do, you had better maintain 120,000 points of respect for it, let alone think of signing a contract with it - this fire elemental creature can be said to be the darling of the entire fire elemental plane, and can even be said to be an incarnation of it.

The Otherworldly Soul was fortunate to have summoned the eight-legged fire elemental creature that was the best of their kind, as evidenced by its ability to keep itself in a normal red flame state and raise a violet flame when its owner needed it, but it was no match for the humanoid flame, which could even extract (rather than assimilate) the energy in its body if needed, allowing it to dissipate completely.

And it's been around much longer than the spider, long enough to see through all the pretenses and lies.

"I remember you," said "she" (an avatar of a graceful female body), "your master once invited me—and we danced together under the stars of the main plane. ”

The spider tapped its chelicerae approvingly.

"He's cold, but he's as warm inside as we are. The fire elemental incarnation said that the voice of the fire elemental creature was like a hissing or a clump sound, but to the little spider's ears, the voice of the avatar was as beautiful as a heavenly sound, so it unconsciously held a veritable big face, and almost forgot the master's instructions.

Fortunately, the fire elemental incarnation did not forget, "Are you injured? Or are you too tired?" she reached out with a slender and shiny finger and clicked a little on the little spider's body, and the golden light seeped into the little spider's body, repairing several pieces of the fallen carapace.

The little spider then remembered what Cremar wanted it to do: "Hiss." It said, raising the chelicera.

It was a gem that had been spelled with protective energy, and the fire elemental creature looked at it curiously, and gently pushed it with its fingertips, and the magic applied to the gem immediately transmitted a message.

"Ah," said the fire elemental avatar, "is this what your master wants you to report and request?" Although his request was a bit contrary to the nature of the fire elemental creature, ...... "even if it was to thank you for that pleasant night," the fire elemental avatar said, "tell your master that if I can, I hope to have the opportunity to dance with him." ”

The little spider rattled again excitedly.

The mages and warlocks of the other islands were sent away from the crown as soon as the volcano fell into a deep sleep again, which was a good thing for the crown and for themselves, although several of them were hungry, and after smelling the sweet smell of burnt incense, some of them whispered: "I heard that they are about to hold a great festival," said a mage from Xizhi, "and what a wonderful thing it would be if they could give us a roast sheep." ”

"Unless that sheep is filled with the venom of a pit viper. His companion scoffed.

"I'm just talking. The mage said.

"But I've heard that this festival is really grand," said another mage who was traveling with them, "I'm not interested in roasting sheep, but I'd love to see how they sacrifice a thousand male slaves and a thousand female slaves, and it must be a spectacular scene." ”

"There is no doubt about it," said the mage who had previously wanted a roast sheep, and at the same time showed a knowing smile, "It is true that only the Dragonfire Islands can be so luxurious. ”

Then the three of them just stood on the deck and laughed stupidly.

The warlock standing at the other end rolled his eyes covertly, he really wished that his companion could be half as smart as the mage of the other island, they had accepted the employment of the master of the Eastern Crown to kill his son's disciple, a young mage, but what he didn't expect was that the summoned witness of the contract was the demon lord Grazt, and no one wanted to be targeted by that demon, so the plan had to be aborted, of course, the remuneration was non-refundable.

For them it's the end, but for others, it may not. (To be continued.) )
