Active volcanoes are always dangerous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Even without the red-hot magma pouring down the hillsides, without the ash and debris spilling from the sky, the poisonous gases gushing from the depths of the earth alone would be enough to kill people.

Fortunately, the island was not in the eruption phase, and there was no more activity except for the first few fires and the strange lightning under the dark clouds of the crater. Although there were a few disgusting wisps of sulphur wafting through the air, it was not very strong, and Lukka distributed the watered cloth to everyone, protected his mouth and nose, and slid up the potholed hillside.

Of course, he wasn't greedy for money enough to jump into the fire pit casually. In the magic assault training of the Plastic Energy Department a few days ago, the trick "Calorie Balance" he had just learned could come in handy. This is the same magic as the magic circle in Nora's garnet necklace, and Lukka holds the amethyst staff in his hand, and his spirit is tense, ready to use this magic to save the day.

The crystal at the top of the Amethyst Staff was full of cracks, and the huge crystal looked less like a gem from afar, but like an ordinary stone, probably because of this, those greedy lightning bolts did not snatch the staff together, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. Otherwise, Lukka would not have dared to run so directly to the crater.

The climb to the mountain went unexpectedly well, and the imaginary magma did not appear, except for the sprained ankle that caused Luca a lot of trouble.

The mountain is shaking more and more, and the volcanic island seems to be sinking. Although this speed can't catch up with the speed of the Silent Reaper drilling into the sea, it is also quite fast for an island.

Lukka endured the pain in his foot and picked up his pace.

An hour later, the five of them finally climbed to the top of the mountain, out of breath.

The crater at the top of the mountain is oval-shaped, and the lightning that flew before is now hard to find, and it seems to have completely withdrawn into the depths of their lair.

Lukka looked down at the edge of the crater, and a huge black cavern came into view.

"It's not like you can go down!" he said, looking straight up and down the inner wall of the crater.

"If it's inside the volcano, it's really hard to get our stuff back!" said Ollie, holding a substitute for the greatsword: a wooden plank more than a meter long that appeared to have been ripped from somewhere on the Silent Death, and the angry look in Daniel's eyes next to him confirmed Luca's suspicion.

Holding back the displeasure of the ship's destruction, the ghost proposes a method that seems to work: "I'll float down and see!"

As he spoke, he turned his body into a translucent gaseous state and slowly moved over the crater.

At the moment when he was completely suspended, Daniel's figure suddenly fell downward, and his ghost form was completely useless on this strange crater!

Ollie reacted quickly, and the plank in his hand immediately swung out, and Daniel immediately turned back into a physical entity, grasping the front of the plank, slowly climbing up, and picking up a life, uh, death from the edge of being swallowed by the volcano.

"Can you see anything?" asked Luca.

"Huh, what?" was the questioned, Crete, who was now intently wiping his glasses, and the rapidly changing temperature here had cast a white haze over his glasses. He took off his glasses, let alone the crater, and probably didn't even see Daniel and Ollie's life-and-death rescue just now.

Finally wiping his glasses clean, Crete looked at the huge hole below for a moment, and then raised his hand to the inner wall on the southwest side: "There's a small hole there." ”

The sky was dark, the stones on the inner wall of the crater were black, and the small cave was also black. Lukka squinted for a long time, but couldn't tell where the little hole was.

Nol stretched her hand and waved, and a bright light flew towards the cave wall on the southwest side, the smallest of the several living flames that were suspended around her for lighting. As soon as the flame swept through the range of the crater, it fell straight down like Daniel before, and this time even Ollie couldn't react, and the small ball of light fell into the deep hole with a "whoosh", struggled slightly, and then completely extinguished.

Although this group of living flames caused Nora to lose a lot, it was not enough to hurt the vitality, but this time, everyone was stunned, and no one knew how to go down.

After a few seconds, Daniel suddenly remembered something: "The range of this crater only works on energy bodies! After I recovered my entity just now, I can climb up with a wooden plank!"

"Makes sense!" Ollie said, reaching the wooden plank in his hand above the crater, and sure enough, it was held in his hand smoothly and without any effect, while the miniature fireball cast by Lukka fell instantly.

Only then did he realize that his over-reliance on magic had brought him a lot of trouble, and in normal times, he could use miniature fireballs, and Nora could release live flames at any time, and their small team had no regular lighting tools such as torches at all!

Lukka reached out and touched the inner wall of the volcano, which was unusually smooth at the tentacles, not at all like ordinary craters.

Crete looked at the helpless captain, sighed, and took off his backpack from his back. As the only member of the group who brought expedition tools with him when he landed on the island, he felt a little tired.

However, he didn't expect this crater to devour energy, and there was no lighting tool in his backpack, and after touching it for a long time, Crete pulled out a rope ladder.

Lukka's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the rope ladder and trotted along the crater rim to the southwest, just above the little hole that Crete was referring to—he forgot the pain in his foot.

Secured the rope ladder and attached a safety rope to his waist, Lukka climbed down first.

Actually, he's quite afraid of the dark. There was no light in the crater area, and even the occasional lightning had completely disappeared, and his vision was completely useless for a while.

But thinking about the jewels and silver coins that had been snatched, Lukka not only endured the constant pain in his feet, but also suppressed his fear of the dark instincts, and step by step, he got closer and closer to the small hole.

Finally, the foot he poked forward was no longer a solid stone wall, and after a few steps down, Lukka finally stood firmly on the edge of the hole.

He stepped forward, and with a "bang", his nose hit the wall in front of him, sore and painful.

Could it be that the hole is just a small depression? He stretched out his hand and touched both sides, and his right hand was empty, and the hole was a sharp turn as soon as he entered!

After groping in, I took two more steps, and then made another left turn.

After turning the third corner, Lukka suddenly remembered that this place was already out of the range directly above the crater, so why not make a miniature fireball lighting himself?
