Chapter Seventy-Four: A Crisis Comes
After saying goodbye to Keelung, Shuo just embarked on the road to the underworld, and Keelung returned to the City of Innocence.
Soon after, Shuo had just arrived in the underworld, and he chose a hot spot to begin replenishing the energy in the energy core.
With the improved energy absorption method, it only takes less than a day for Shuogang to replenish the energy in the five energy cores.
After replenishing his energy, he began to explore the underground world, looking for the strange creatures that Martha had said. Shuo Gang speculated that the strange creature that Martha was talking about should be made of lava and was a creature similar to the rock family. All of these creatures have a life core, which is the raw material for refining psionic metals.
It's just that there are so few of them that Shuo Gang isn't sure if he can find them in the underworld.
Shuogang explored the underworld, where the magma surge could be a big obstacle for others, but for Shuogang, it was almost unaffected.
With continuous exploration, Shuo Gang felt more and more the vastness of the underground world, but there were too few strange creatures, and Shuo Gang searched for a long time but did not find it.
Ten days later, Shuo Gang had already entered the depths of the underground world, but he still hadn't finished exploring the underground world. The first two times, Shuo just came to the underworld, just to absorb and replenish energy, and to improve the method of absorbing and replenishing energy, and did not explore the underworld.
This exploration, Shuo Gang felt more and more the vastness of the underground world, and he even doubted that even if he explored for another two or three months, it would be difficult to completely explore the underground world.
However, Shuo Gang finally spotted the strange creature.
It was indeed a strange creature, covered in surging lava, and unlike the rock mutants that Shuo Gang had ever seen, his body had almost no lower limbs, but he could quickly swim through the lava. The organism uses to walk is somewhat similar to the gastropods of mollusks such as snails, but it is very fast to walk.
At the same time that Shuogang discovered this strange creature, the strange creature also spotted him, and he rushed through several lava craters at great speed, rushing towards Shuogang.
His two large hands made of magma are very similar to human palms, both have palms and five fingers, but they are much larger than human palms, which is also related to his own size, because his body is five or six meters tall.
Shuo's height of nearly two meters is just a small point in front of him.
When approaching Shuogang, one of his large magma hands pushed out in the direction of Shuogang, and a large balls of magma with flames quickly formed in his hands, and then flew towards Shuogang.
Shuo Gang had already felt a thick fire energy on this magma creature, and at this time, after this magma fireball was formed, an even richer fire energy rushed towards him.
Shuo Gang finally understood why many humans encountered this magma creature in the underworld, but never returned. In this underground world of magma and fire, it is simply the main battlefield of this magma creature.
When ordinary humans come here, it is estimated that they can only exert two or three points of their combat power, and this magma creature is not only strong but also like a fish in water here, so it is naturally impossible to escape their pursuit here.
However, Shuo Gang is not an ordinary human, he is a mechanical race, not only is he born with the ability to use fire-based energy, but also has a deep understanding of fire.
The magma creature was destined to meet him to a tragic end.
This magma fireball could be a great threat to ordinary people, but to Shuo Gang, there was hardly any threat at all, as this level of flame could not cause him any damage at all.
However, even so, Shuo Gang did not have a habit of being burned by fire, so he still chose to dodge.
After easily dodging the magma fireball, Shuo Gang unfolded his body and attacked the magma creatures.
Shuo Gang's body was wrapped in a thick layer of fire intent, this layer of fire intent, he could be protected from the effects of most flames, unless it was a flame of the level of spiritual fire, these flames did not want to cause him any harm.
Therefore, the most important attack method of this magma creature, fire, could not do any damage to Shuogang at all. In this way, the fate of the magma creatures is completely tragic.
In fact, although this magma creature looked large, his strength was not strong, and after his flame attack was completely suppressed by the opponent, he had almost no means to do it.
Under Shuogang's attack, the magma creature fell in large chunks, and his body continued to shrink. Now, he's too big for Shuo Gang to hit his head.
However, Shuo Gang believed that it would not be long before his body shrank to the point where he could easily attack his head.
The magma creatures also realized that they were no match for Shuo Gang and prepared to flee into the lava to evacuate.
However, how could Shuo Gang let him get his wish.
Shuo Gang used his fierce attack to make it impossible for the magma creatures to get close to the magma, let alone escape.
Soon, under the attack of Shuogang, the magma creature shrank to just over two meters tall.
Shuo Gang has been able to attack the head of the magma creature.
Blast Kill.
Shuo Gang blasted a rich amount of fire energy into the magma creature's neck, and then with a muffled sound, the magma creature's entire head exploded. Perhaps because the magma creatures themselves contain a strong amount of fire-based energy, the power of the 'Burst Kill' is actually beyond Shuogang's imagination.
Sure enough, as Shuo Gang expected, the brain domain of the magma creature was in its brain, and after the head exploded, the magma creature's body also lost its movement.
Shuo Gang found a life core similar to a rock core in his body, this life core was higher than the level of the high-level rock soldier core that Shuo Gang had seen, and it should have reached the level of the rock general's core.
However, such a life core can't refine the psionic metal needed to upgrade an energy core. Shuo Gang estimated that at least five or so of these life cores would be needed to refine a piece of psionic metal that he needed. And he needs to improve a total of five energy cores, which requires about twenty-five life cores.
This is mainly because Shuo Gang's alchemy skills are too low, after all, what he learned in the tribal academy is only the basics of alchemy, and there is not much advanced alchemy knowledge involved at all.
Of course, it was also fortunate that Shuo had just cultivated the foundation of alchemy, otherwise he would not be able to refine them into psionic metals even if there were enough life cores in front of him.
It took so long to find a magma creature and get a life core, and Shuo Gang didn't know how long it would take him to find all twenty-five life cores.
After much thought, Shuo Gang decided to return to the surface first.
After replenishing the energy consumed, Shuo Gang headed for the exit of the underworld.
When he came, he had to look for magma creatures, so he couldn't have traveled very fast.
However, when I went back, it was different, Shuo Gang was in a hurry, so it took more than ten days to travel when he came, and when he went back, Shuo Gang only took two days to complete.
Suddenly, when Shuo Gang was about to reach the exit of the underworld, he noticed a trace of movement ahead, and he hurriedly lurked.
At this time, an arrogant voice came.
"Haha, could it be that you two really thought that you could escape here under the pursuit of my Wynent, if it weren't for you to take me to that Yangshuo, I would have killed those miscellaneous pieces a long time ago, and killed you. Say! Why did you two come to the underground cave, could it be that Yangshuo was hidden in the underground cave? ”
