Chapter 253: Flame Stone
"Didn't you hear stories about the Flame Stone and the destruction of Birkensdal when you were a child?" asked Rohr, looking puzzled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In his opinion, every parent should be able to tell their children such a widely circulated warning fable, even in a wild village where information is extremely closed.
However, as an earthling, how could Lu Li have heard the ancient legends of another world, and immediately shook his head vigorously: "No, I haven't heard of it, please tell me about it now." ”
Seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, Rohr sighed helplessly, and quickly recounted in a slightly hoarse voice: "The story is actually very simple, a girl named Debbie picked up a red, hot lens on the road, and then brought it back to Birkensdal City and sold it to a local magic shop.
The shopkeeper thought the stone was very peculiar, and gave it a nice name, the Flame Stone, and then presented it as a gift to the local lord.
A powerful alchemist happened to be at the lord's side, and he discovered the peculiarity of the Flame Stone and thought that he could use it to make a powerful magical item that could be used against the powerful and terrifying beasts of the forest.
The lord agreed to the request, allowing him to take the flame stone away and conduct a series of studies.
After ten years, the alchemist finally used the power of the Flame Stone to create a crown that was capable of summoning a massive Lava Elemental Lord.
At first, the summoning went very smoothly, and when the majestic body of the lava elemental lord passed through the gap in space and came to the surface world, the entire city of Birkensdal was boiling!
Everyone was cheering desperately, because with such a powerful guardian, they would no longer have to worry about safety, whether it be bandits, robbers, beasts and monsters, it would never be a problem again.
As expected, the bearer of the crown destroyed all threats around Birkensdal with unparalleled power and allowed his people to live happily.
Just when he was complacent, the chaotic consciousness of the lava element slowly penetrated into his soul through the flame stone, and in just one or two years, a benevolent ruler turned into a complete madman.
The lord's personality became more and more irritable and irritable, and finally he made a summon in the city, razing the entire city of Birkensdal to the ground, and tens of thousands of civilians were buried under the lava before they could react, and he himself was killed by falling rocks from the sky.
So I advise you to throw away the flame stone in your hand quickly, if you can't resist the erosion from the soul, if you hold it for too long, sooner or later you will fall into irrational madness. ”
The great alchemist Morse obviously didn't like this story, and retorted angrily: "Don't listen to his nonsense! No one can prove that the destruction of Birkensdal City is related to the lava elemental lord! The Flame Stone is just a prop! How can it erode the soul of mortals? Everything in the world has to be practiced and studied to have a say! You are misleading others!"
"Bastard, you are still quibbling with the facts in front of you, and I will not allow you to bring that scourge-filled stone back to the Empire!" Rohr threatened with a flick of his fist.
However, the old man did not accept this, and straightened his thin chest and roared: "I am the royal great alchemist!
"Dream! If you hadn't ordered to dig up just now, you wouldn't have alarmed that ancient elemental lord at all!
"Idiot! How can you, a muscular fellow, understand the importance of studying the mysteries of the Elemental Heart! I'm going to have His Majesty the Emperor throw you into the moat!"
"I think I'm going to throw you in!"
"It's you!"
"It's you!"
......
Seeing that these two began to pinch again after a few words, Lu Li subconsciously frowned and opened his mouth to persuade: "I said, you two stop arguing, there will be no result if you continue to quarrel." Personally, I think that instead of worrying about the Flame Stone, you should worry about how you will return safely. You must know that it will take at least three to four hours to go through the portal from here, and in your current state, I am afraid that in less than twenty minutes, you may be caught up by the huge stone man and slapped into a meatloaf. ”
From the description he had just made, he had roughly figured out what the thing in his hand was called the Flame Stone.
First of all, the Flame Stone is a part of the body of the Lava Elemental Lord, which contains immense power, through which the Lord itself can be summoned to act according to his own will.
Secondly, there is some kind of connection between the Flame Stone itself and the Elemental Lords, and once it is held for too long, then the spirit and soul will be corrupted by chaos, and eventually become irritable, irritable, and full of destructive tendencies.
Finally, and most importantly, this thing can be crafted into something as destructive as a nuclear weapon, and its value cannot be measured in monetary terms, but it is also a double-edged sword that hurts others and hurts oneself.
"Oh! Damn! I almost forgot! Our giant tortoises are dead! The alchemy puppets have been swallowed up by magma! Even the luggage has been lost! It's over! My digging records are gone!Ahh
Rohr's face was also gloomy, and he asked with an embarrassed expression, "Can you please do us a little favor and use these two strange cars to get us to the portal?"
"Sorry, it can't be. This car will run out of gas soon, and it will not be able to support the return journey at all, and the volcano you built has completely blocked the road, and I am afraid that there will be no time to cool down, and there will be no way to pass through it. Lu Li refused the other party's request without hesitation.
Although he is a little bad at the attributes of a good person, it depends on what the situation is, and he ventures through an erupting volcano, which is definitely thinking that he has a long life and wants to find some excitement.
After all, from the first eruption to the present, the volcano has no intention of stopping at all, and it erupts again every ten minutes, the scene is both spectacular and dangerous, and the slightest mistake will be surrounded by terrifying magma, only fools and madmen would want to cross it......
Glancing at the dark red magma flowing around, Luo Er instantly realized that his request was a bit excessive, and spread his hands with a wry smile: "Okay, it seems that my request is a bit excessive." Where are you going, can you take us with you?"
Touching the stubble that had just grown on his chin, Lu Li smiled and shook his head: "I'm afraid not! As far as I know, ordinary people can't cross the line at all, but I can provide you with the food and water you need for these days." ”
Speaking of which, he glanced again at the dark faces and burnt robes of the crowd, and added, "And, of course, clothes and toiletries......" (To be continued. )
