Chapter 39: The Little Beast (New Year's Greetings to Book Friends)
Ahan was bold and approached slowly. The creature let out a warning sound like a clash of jade as it scrambled back from behind the rock. He finally saw the creature in its true form.
It was an unknown little beast with a small silver horn on the top of its head, and the small figure was gaudy and exuded a metallic luster. Its head is very large, accounting for one-third of its entire body, and its face does not have much flesh and skin, but is composed of a whole exoskeleton, plus small horn spines scattered scattered, with a faint majesty.
But if you combine it with the huge head and short figure, it can only feel ridiculous.
It is covered in a layer of blue scales, and there are some mysterious lines on it. A short tail on the tail, flicking from side to side, smashing into the ground with a thumping sound, it is demonstrating to strangers. However, its demonstrations obviously did not have any power to speak of.
Ahan had never seen such a creature in the Bestiary, and it was probably undetected. Ahan let out a gesture of kindness as he moved forward, trying to get closer to the mysterious creature.
The beast illustrated book has sporadically mentioned that beasts can also be domesticated, and the spirit beasts beside some strong people are even stronger than their own strength.
Just by looking at the majesty of this creature, and the striking color of its body, you know that this creature must be extraordinary, and it would be great if it could be tamed.
Yahan's heart was excited, and he slowly approached, trying to squeeze out a kind smile on his face.
However, his smile had no effect on the little beast. The little beast grinned as it retreated, its mouth making a sharp and changeable warning sound, and its tail pounding louder.
He laughed in vain for a few minutes, but the other party didn't appreciate it at all, and Yahan was also annoyed, he suddenly kicked on his toes, and his body quickly rushed forward, intending to wait until he grabbed it.
At this time, there was a sudden palpitation in his heart, and then a heat wave came to his face, and at the moment of crisis, he twisted his waist hard, and his body quickly rolled to the left, almost at the same time, a white dazzling flame passed through his waist, and the heat was all around.
The flames fell to the ground and burned violently, and the ground quickly melted, and soon turned into a puddle of pale lava.
Ahan rose from the ground, and when he saw the flames, his heart beat violently, and his heart was afraid. Once stuck to this flame, even ten lives will be burned to ashes.
He immediately looked ahead, only to see that the little beast was constantly panting, but its eyes were staring at Yahan tightly, without blinking, seeing Yahan look over, its body trembled obviously, its limbs grasped the ground, and it kept roaring, but its body slowly retreated, and suddenly it turned around and ran towards a nearby cave.
Yahan was slightly stunned, and quickly came back to his senses and chased after the little beast, although the flame of the mysterious creature was powerful, but obviously the flame was very limited, and after just a squirt, it was already powerless and could not continue.
When the little beast saw him coming, the little beast in front of him ran even faster. Although he is short and fat, and his limbs are not long, his running speed is quite slow, and he can only keep it from escaping at his speed.
The temperature in the cave is getting higher and higher, and the walls of the cave entrance are gradually showing a flame-like red, as if it is some kind of ore. A scorching breath came from the depths of the cave in waves, and the whole space was filled with a sulfurous breath.
After only advancing a thousand meters, the temperature here has suddenly risen to sixty or seventy degrees Celsius, and every time he inhales, he feels as if he is inhaling a flame, and his chest is on fire. And the deeper you go, the hotter it gets.
Just as Ahan hesitated to go deeper, the little beast in front of him suddenly turned into a bend and suddenly disappeared. A red light at the bend, a sound of hot water boiling, faintly came from the bend.
He perked up, there was obviously magma at the end of this place, and there was no way ahead.
He gritted his teeth and followed the beast into the bend quickly, and suddenly a wave of heat rushed to his face, his hair curled suddenly, and he could already smell a burning smell.
In the eye was a patch of red, it was a huge magma lake, and the dark red liquid in the lake was slowly surging and boiling. Occasionally, a huge bubble emerges from the depths, and then suddenly turns into a flame several meters high.
After arriving here, there was no road for a long time, only a piece of lava in front of me. But the little beast was gone.
Ahan looked around for the direction in which the little beast might go, and suddenly there was a roar of beasts in front of him, with a hint of pride in his voice.
He immediately looked ahead, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw that the little beast on the magma lake was waving its claws vigorously and roaring loudly. The scorching magma around it has no effect on it at all, but in the face of such high temperatures, it seems to be warm water.
"This ...... This is definitely not an ordinary spirit animal! He thought to himself that ordinary fire-type spirit beasts might be able to breathe flames, but it didn't mean that their physical bodies could withstand the high temperature of magma. Their flame immunity isn't yet that strong.
At this time, the little beast took a sip of lava and sprayed at Ahan.
The magma was located five or six meters from Ahan and fell in the lake, and the magma splashed everywhere, and Ahan took a step back to avoid being splashed by the magma. When the little beast saw Ahan retreat, as if victorious, he waved his paws vigorously and roared loudly, and was very proud.
As his footsteps fell, he felt something strange on the ground, as if something was being trampled on. He looked towards the ground, and saw scattered eggshell fragments on the ground.
He bent down and picked up a piece of eggshell the size of a little thumb, at which point he felt a little slippery on his hand, and when he looked down, he saw that there was still some viscous liquid on the inner wall of the eggshell.
The liquid is pink in color, and as soon as it touches the finger, it is quickly absorbed into the skin and disappears. Suddenly, he felt a hot current rise from his fingers, spreading throughout his body in the blink of an eye.
The heat flow comes and goes quickly, and before you have time to worry, it quickly disappears and seems to be absorbed by the body.
A hint of surprise flashed across his face, and he noticed that the heat around him seemed to have weakened a little after the warm current, or rather, he could no longer feel the unbearable heat around him. The body's resistance to flames seems to have been strengthened a lot.
He was ecstatic in his heart, and immediately realized that this liquid was a rare treasure.
He hurriedly picked up all the eggshell fragments one by one, and then applied the liquid in the eggshell to the skin, this time the heat flow was more obvious, and it lasted for dozens of seconds before the color of the body gradually recovered.
At this point, he could no longer feel the heat, and the heat around him seemed to disappear suddenly.
At this time, he heard the little beast in the magma lake screaming frantically, and its stubby claws slapped the magma vigorously, and its expression was very fierce.
His heart moved, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind, could it be that these eggshells belonged to this little beast?
In recent days, in the future mother-in-law's house, the update may be less stable. Also, ask for a recommendation.
