If one were standing on the shore of the Lake of the End, one could see a raft floating from afar. In the novel, the raft looks very miserable, a quarter of the thick logs that are horizontal have been broken in two from the middle, but fortunately a metal rope has passed through the center to hold it in place, so that it does not fall off the raft. The passengers on the raft were of course just as wolf, all of them were soaking wet, their clothes clinging to their bodies, and as the only male passenger, Pannis felt that his arm was swollen, not from fatigue, of course, but from pinching. But now that the maidens had put on their cloaks to cover their soaked clothes, Pannis's arms were spared.

However, it was not them who were the most miserable, but Dilly the Manticore. The poor manticore-tailed shrunk to the size of an adult, spread his wings and flew against the water in front of the raft, he was tied to a rope, the other end of the rope was attached to the raft, and the raft was dragged forward by him in front, at which point his face showed a human-like frustration, and he had no strength @/txt/27340/11461290/-> plan, and reached the shore before dusk.

"Because we have the best means of transportation. Perhaps because he was finally about to dock, Pannis was in a particularly good mood, completely freed from the shadow of being attacked by the group of girls, leaned on a package and said: "The speed of this vehicle is faster than my boat, I knew this, I just let him pull the boat from the beginning." ”

"Bastard Kyle, you're the vehicle, you must have broken the pole on purpose. Dilly retorted weakly: "Lao Tzu suspects that you have been plotting to put the responsibility of driving the ship on my head from the moment you got on the boat." ”

Dilley said though. But neither he nor the other girls would really think so, in fact, the second half of the journey is particularly troublesome compared to the first half of the journey. In the first half of the journey, the normal speed is slightly slower than that of the Dilila. But everyone was very comfortable, except for the kind of accident that no one could have predicted in the middle of the lake, and everyone did not encounter any trouble. But the second half is different, the Dilila boat needs to fly, and the flight altitude guide is often on the same plane as those floating twisted souls, so that everyone needs to constantly go around and circle on the surface of the lake in a continuous circle, and finally barely get through the encirclement of twisted souls. There were even two times when the twisted soul was too dense and the range was too large to go around. Everyone simply had to go into the water en masse and push the raft through them, which was the main reason why everyone ended up getting soaked.

Seeing that the shore is getting closer and closer, and the number of twisted souls is getting smaller and smaller, often not passing one for half a day, the girls' hanging hearts are finally let go, and the thick earth can bring people a sense of security more than the floating water. In the second half of the road, the girls have been worried about encountering the environmental changes in the middle of the lake again. Fortunately, along the way, what they feared did not happen. The journey was safe and smooth, and there were no more packages from the forerunners at the bottom of the lake.

"Actually, you don't need to worry. Pannis said leisurely: "Although this area is a forbidden place for living beings, for thousands of years, after all, there are still a few special people like us who have arrived, and indeed, there is no exploration in the middle of the lake in the records." However, the people who came to explore the lake left detailed records, and there was no record of the Lake of the End changing periodically, which means that at least there is no anomaly on the shore. You've seen those water columns, each of which rises tens of meters high. The highest I estimate is more than 100 meters, and the sound is loud enough that I think people from more than ten kilometers away can see and hear it. In this way, the water area of more than 8,000 square kilometers will probably only be abnormal in the hundreds of square kilometers close to the center of the lake, and only in this way will people in other directions be unable to observe. ”

"But, this is really just your conjecture and speculation, isn't it?" Catherine shook her head, "After all, no one can be sure, and no one can say what the real situation is, so it's better to be careful and safe." ”

"It's really my speculation. Pannis nodded, "But the actual situation proves that my guess is still very reasonable." ”

"That's right. Catherine remembered what had happened to the heart of the lake before, and now she still has palpitations, under the power of nature, the power of the individual is too small, so small that it is almost desperate. The knight girl sighed and said, "I don't know what happened, how could there be such a drastic change all of a sudden." ”

"I suspect it has something to do with the eruption. Vivian's voice didn't sound very happy, when she got out of the dangerous waters and arrived at a relatively safe area, the soul of the scholar made the mage girl want to wait until the mutation subsided, and then rush back to study the cause of this phenomenon, but the girl knew that for the whole team, this was too dangerous and very irresponsible, so the mage girl could only press her own impulse and leave the center of the lake of the end with blood in her heart.

"Is there an eruption of earthfire?" said Catherine, rubbing the girl's wet hair as a comforter, and asked in a low voice, "Is it a rare natural phenomenon of a large amount of magma spewing out of the ground?"

"Yes, that's the eruption of fire. Speaking of academic issues, Vivian was finally in a better mood, and said excitedly: "But earthfire eruptions are not necessarily only magma, there are many kinds of eruptions. Sometimes, if there are no cracks in the formation or there are few cracks, the magma will not eject it, but only the vapor that has been completely vaporized by heating at high temperatures, just like just now. This explains why the lake water has a frightening high content of flint and acidic flint, and it is strange that it is not high if it erupts like this often. ”

"If the water column is the eruption of the earthfire, then what about the whirlpools?" Lina asked curiously, "It can't be because of the eruption of the earthfire." ”

"I don't know about the whirlpool, I can only guess. Vivien replied, "I estimate that there is a huge cavity at the bottom of the lake, which is also filled with water, and the upper and lower floors are connected only by some hollows left by the eruption of earthfire. Every time the fire layer continues to be under enough pressure, a large amount of scorching gas is spewed out, and these gases will carry a large amount of moisture and spray it into the sky through the hole. Of course, it is not a coincidence to pass through the holes, there is no such coincidence in the world, and it happens that the holes are because the holes are simply due to the eruption of scorching gases. After the eruption of the scorching gas is over, because a large amount of water is taken away from the eruption, the lower space needs a lot of water to replenish and consume, so that the lake water backs up into the lower layer, and it will form a large whirlpool, and it is just the location of the eruption of the earthfire. ”

"Erupt first and then absorb to achieve a balance?" Lina pondered, "Is this the creation of the gods, or is it a naturally formed wonder? ”

"It's by no means a natural spectacle. Pannis shook his head and said, "Earthfire eruptions, whether they are erupting steam or erupting magma, take a long time to accumulate. For example, the eruption of the earthfire in the permafrost ice field often takes tens or even hundreds of years to accumulate before it occurs once, and it is impossible to spray it once a day like eating breakfast. ”

"So you think it's made by the gods?" Lina asked rhetorically, "Or is it man-made?" The problem is that the gods rarely intentionally create such specific spectacles, they just create a large environment, and leave the rest to the natural world to change on its own. And if it's man-made, don't forget that this is a forbidden place, who can modify the environment here? Even if someone can get in, they can't do it, after all, no race has such technology yet. ”

"No, you're ignoring a race. Pannis shook his finger at Lina: "Those people don't believe in gods, they think they can fight against the gods, they even want to exercise the authority of the gods, so they wantonly create, transform, and even play with life. ”

"You think it's a goblin?" Catherine said without being surprised, "Well, it's indeed possible for goblins to do this, since they can even transform the half-plane into a research institute, it shouldn't be difficult to artificially create a geofire eruption, the question is, why would they do it? ”

"If it's a goblin creation...... That really makes sense. Freya seemed to be inspired by Pannis, and said thoughtfully: "It's likely that they are trying to dissipate heat from large fleets, so they regularly spew out steam every day, and at the same time bring in lake water to cool the overheated equipment, in fact, we Colossus School occasionally use similar methods to cool down, although the scale is certainly not so exaggerated." ”

"Wait, steam every day?" Catherine interrupted Freya suddenly, "Why do you think this happens every day?

Not only Freya, but also Vivien and Pennis, all looked at Catherine with strange eyes because of this question, and the knight girl looked puzzled and asked, "What?

"Look, big sister. Vivien sighed and explained, "Your grandfather encountered an eruption forty years ago, and when we come again, let alone forty years apart, even if it is a year or two apart, but it is not the same day, or even the same month, how likely do you think it is that it happened to have an eruption?"

"Well, it's not big. Catherine scratched her head and said embarrassedly: "At least there must be more frequent eruptions before this kind of coincidence can be caused." ”

"I say, how long are you going to sit on it?" Dilly's low growl of dissatisfaction came over, "It's been a few minutes since you docked, and you're not going to get off the boat?" )
