After hearing Thea's explanation, Lukka asked, "What about the rock giant, is it your younger brother?"

"How can I have such an ugly little brother?" Thea pouted, "I haven't seen that thing." ”

"Judging by the changes in these sacrifices, he must have appeared in the last two or three hundred years," Lukka said after a moment's thought, "probably just a rock giant who happened to discover your temple, pretending to be a mountain spirit here, giving orders to the dwarves, and cheating to eat and drink. ”

"Probably so. Thea raised an eyebrow, "Anyway, now that I'm back, he can't pretend to be a ghost anymore." ”

Nora suddenly became worried, "Are you planning to stay here and not go with us?"

"What are you kidding?" Thea quickly shook her head, "These dwarves are not the ones I knew back then, what am I staying here for? Helping them stabilize the volcano is already worthy of them, right?"

"It's like the volcano is out of control and has nothing to do with you. Phil whispered.

"Alright!" Lukka clapped his hands, "now that the volcano problem is basically solved, it's time for us to get down to business." Aren't the volcanoes part of you? Can you tell me where the Guide Stone is?"

"No, I just connected to the volcano, and my brain is still dizzy, and now I can't even control the direction of lightning. Moreover, Thea puffed up her face and snorted: "This kind of thing, you don't ask Crete but ask me?"

"That's right. Lukka turned, "Crete, can you see where the Guiding Stone is?"

Crete pushed his glasses and asked, "It should be fine, but Captain, can you tell me what the Guiding Stone looks like?"

"You can't have asked the people on the black market, have you?" asked Phil.

Lukka rubbed his head and said, "Of course I asked......! Well, the black market boss and the Chihuahua say exactly the same, the guiding stone, it's a stone. ”

"Tell us something we don't know. Ollie said as she reloaded the supplies she had just thrown down onto the iron ship.

"Specifically, it is an oval-shaped stone, irregularly shaped, about thirty to forty centimeters long, dark gray, with some small pores on it. Luca was specific enough.

"Captain, do you know we're inside a volcano?" Phil looked up.

"Yes, what's wrong?" asked Lukka rhetorically.

"What you just said can be regarded as the most standard description of ordinary volcanic stone. This mountain is full of rocks like this, how do you let us find them?" said Phil, frowning.

"Can't Crete tell the difference?" Lukka pinned his last hope on the navigator.

Crete shook his head helplessly: "If I had seen that stone, I would have been able to find it, but it was not easy to find a volcanic rock in a volcano." ”

"It's a bit of a problem. Lukka scratched his head.

"That stone must be different from normal volcanic rock, right? Like, could it have magical energy?" Shut up and remind.

Lukka thought for a moment and said, "I'll try." ”

He raised his staff and cast a stream of mana, not forming any shape that made up a spell or circle, but letting them explore the halls. He also took special care of the sacrificial mountain, and let several magic streams entangle and shuttle back and forth on it for a while.

"There are no anomalies. He shook his head in disappointment, "Either that thing doesn't have magical energy, or it's not in this hall." ”

"Maybe it's on the lower two floors, try to probe a little farther away. Shut up and flapped his wings and urged.

"Okay, but it's kind of magical. Lukka grumbled as he raised his staff again.

A second later, there was a rumbling sound from below the hall, what seemed to be the sound of boulders crashing against each other. The voice descended up the staircase, getting closer.

"Does the Guiding Stone make such a loud noise when it touches your magic?" asked Ollie, confused.

"Surely not!" Lukka stared at the two stone doors, "I just took a pose, and I haven't exiled my magic yet!"

The obsidian gate was slammed open, and a manic rock giant appeared in the doorway.

"Oh, why did he wake up?" Dolan immediately pulled the lute out of his coat and swept his hand over the strings.

Unexpectedly, under such a slight pluck, the eight groups of strings of the lute made a harsh tone at the same time, and then broke at the same time.

"Ah!" exclaimed Dolan.

Lukka remembered that he had said that the instrument was the equivalent of a wood spirit's heart, and that state it looked like a heart attack.

"Are you going to die?" asked Phil vaguely.

"I didn't ...... No," the corners of Dolan's mouth twitched, "it's dry and hot here, and I played a piece so passionate just now that the strings were stretched to the limit." ”

"Passion?" Lukka frowned, no matter how much the wood spirit's lullaby just sounded like it didn't relate to those two words.

"Why don't you die now that the strings are broken?" Phil still dwelled on the issue.

"The piano as a whole is not broken, a few strings are broken, and at most a few tendons are drawn. Dolan unloaded the broken strings one by one.

"Then you should put it back on!" Lukka said.

"I don't have spare strings for this instrument, it grows slowly. Dolan explained.

"How long will that take?" Lukka shook his head, "Forget it, you won't have to answer in more than five minutes." ”

Dolan didn't say a word.

"Hey!"

The word came out of the rock giant's mouth with a loud thud that hit the ground, and the volume made Luca's ears "buzz".

"Do you think I don't exist?!" the rock giant hammered impatiently on the ground with a large sledgehammer made of stone.

"How is that possible, aren't we trying to figure out how to deal with you?" said Luca, turning.

"Did you figure it out?" asked the rock giant, gasping.

"No, I'm still thinking about it. Lukka smiled, "However, I didn't expect you to be quite polite, and you won't do anything until you finish speaking." ”

"Once you've been smashed into meatloaf, you won't be able to answer questions!" roared the rock giant, wielding a stone hammer.

"What question do you want to ask?" Lukka asked with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense with him!" Thea was angry at the sight of the rock giant, "This impostor!"

Probably seeing that she was just a little girl, the rock giant ignored it, but continued to tap the ground in the doorway with a stone hammer and asked, "What the hell did you just do, where did the lava go?"
