Chapter Ninety-Six: Frozen Lightning
Why don't you make a miniature fireball for light?" Lukka thought, silently reciting the incantation. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as he spat out the first syllable, his spell was completely interrupted. The companions who rushed in behind him couldn't even see that Lukka had stopped, and one by one they crashed into his back.
So, the second half of the miniature fireball was still in his throat, and Lukka threw himself directly into the ground, with three companions piled up behind him. In addition to the best eyes, but also walk in Crete at the end.
Nora weighs very little, Ollie doesn't weigh much when she's not wearing armor, and Daniel is a strong man who is over 1.9 meters tall. Luka, who was pressed to the bottom, struggled several times before finally pushing all the people on his body away, almost missing a breath.
Daniel, who was pushed away, was not having a good time, he not only fell to the ground with a "thump" on the top, but also rolled several times along the slope of the ground towards the depths of the cave.
Lukka finally stood up, and while he began to muse the miniature fireball spell again, he groped his way in the direction Daniel had rolled away, and it would be too miserable to lose his crew as soon as he entered the hole, right?
This time, however, his miniature fireball failed to complete the spell.
Because the bend just turned was like stepping from a slow night to the dawn. The last step was still a pitch-black passage, and after turning ninety degrees, a bright silver shimmer suddenly appeared in front of him.
Daniel, who had "rolled" in advance, sat on the ground, also stunned by the sight of this step of heaven and one step of hell.
Seeing that Daniel was fine, Lukka used the Amethyst Staff as a crutch and walked briskly towards the shining light in front of him.
These lights were different from the flashes of magic, which were countless large transparent crystals, each with a bolt of lightning solidified in it. These electric lights, which should have been fleeting, seemed to be imprisoned here by the cage of time, and each one maintained a sharp and elegant posture, standing quietly among the crystals five or six meters high.
Lukka couldn't help but touch the crystal with his hand, but didn't get any feedback. There was neither magic nor any divine power or anything like that, and those lightning bolts seemed to just sleep quietly here.
The further he went, the denser the crystals became, and in the end, Lukka had to turn sideways to barely walk through the passage between the two crystals. Thinking of Daniel, who was much taller than himself, he couldn't help but look back.
Daniel was transforming himself into a ghostly form and squeezing through the narrow space, seemingly unaffected by the eerie crater.
Finally passing through the narrowest part of the passage, Luka's face suddenly brightened. It wasn't that the number of these crystals had decreased, on the contrary, there were more crystals in front of him that were uncountable, and they were also larger than before.
But at this moment, Lukka was standing under a huge dome.
He seems to have seen this description before: the sky is like a dome, which means that the sky is like a huge dome. But now, he felt like a "dome like the sky", and if it weren't for the dazzling crystals on it, Lukka would really think of this huge semi-arc dome as the night sky.
Countless crystals were embedded in the black dome, and the lightning solidified inside was not only larger, but also appeared in various colors, and even a few of them even had a delicate pink color inside!
Lukka looked at it for a while and realized that it wasn't the lightning itself. Not far ahead, a high platform of smooth black rock stretched out in front of him, piled up like a hill with all sorts of glittering jewels and gold and silver objects, and the crystals were reflected in their colorful state!
His pile of gems and silver coins, Ollie's greatsword and armor, and Daniel's scepter were piled on top of them. Compared to the countless treasures piled up below, Luca's little bit of money was almost negligible.
He didn't bring a big backpack with him, which made Luca a little disappointed. At least the backpack Crete was carrying wasn't too small, and thinking of this, he walked quickly to the high platform with his amethyst staff.
"Click!"
The sound of a crystal shattering.
The ground shook violently, and Lukka stumbled before he could cast a diamond skin, the right choice that saved his life a second later.
"Smack!"
A bolt of lightning struck Lukka directly, and the power contained in it was just enough to completely shatter his diamond skin, and it also happened to consume all the energy, except for a few burnt and curly hairs, which did not cause more damage to Luca.
"Huh?" it seemed to be some creature's surprised exclamation, and its voice was loud and echoed under the dome.
This was followed by several "clicks" that were the same as before, and five bolts of lightning struck at the same time, and this time, the opponent's target was not only Luca, but also every companion behind him!
Lukka knew that with his spell casting speed, it was impossible to add diamond skins to everyone once, so he changed his response.
A wall of ice suddenly rose from the ground, no more than three or four meters long and only about two meters high, which was not too big, but it just protected all the companions.
The lightning was blocked, and the violent impact immediately covered the crystal wall of ice with fine lines, and the sudden increase in temperature caused the front end of the ice wall to melt, and the water bubbled past Luka's feet.
The other party did not attack again, but let out an even more surprised sound: "Huh?!"
Then, the ground shook violently again, and the creature seemed to want to get a closer look at what it could resist several attacks, and a huge figure descended from mid-air onto the high platform in front of Lukka with the sound of jewels clattering to the ground.
Lukka was unsteady on his feet from the shock caused by the opponent's landing, supporting his body with the Amethyst staff, barely falling again. He looked up, but he didn't understand what was in front of him.
His entire vision was filled with a dazzling array of silver scales, which were all the more dazzling as their owners moved and reflected the reflections of the crystals on the walls.
It took Lukka a long time to recover from this state of "flashing my kryptonite dog eyes", and his eyes finally captured the only two black orbs in the silver.
He snapped into the orb, the orb was the creature's eyes!
Lukka took a deep breath and took a few steps back, finally getting a full view of the creature.
Dragon.
A dragon glowing with silver all over its body!
If Lukka had ever read books like the Dragon's Illustrated Guide, he would know that the dark eyes indicated that the dragon was not very old, and the faint glimmer of bright red in the silver scales also indicated that it was not an ordinary silver dragon.
Of course, Lukka didn't know this, but all he could see at the moment was that the silver dragon raised its claws, plucked a crystal from the cave wall, and crushed it with a "click".
And lightning burst out at its fingertips again!
