Chapter 68: Heart of the Sun
As the snow of the lake continued to advance, the two of them saw a cave in the distance, and orange-red light peeked out of the cave to illuminate the dark and dead bottom of the lake. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info the snow of the lake swirled in front of the two, as if to say goodbye to the two.
"Goodbye. ”
"Thank you. ”
As the snow of the lake rose to the sky, Liu Zijin said softly, "That should be our destination." ”
"Hmm. ”
"In the legend, what does it look like inside?"
"A huge flaming fire demon guards the goddess's treasure inside. ”
"For us, it's a more relaxed situation. ”
"Aren't you a wise man, how can you be more relaxed in this pure competition for strength?"
"Wise people always use the least effort to solve problems. For me, that's the sword. ”
"Why does everything seem to make sense in your mouth?"
"Of course, otherwise my study of history and legend is in vain? Bards will skillfully use sophistry to shape the characters of both sides according to their own preferences. ”
"Hearing you say that, my longing for the bard has faded a lot. ”
Hearing this, Liu Zijin smiled happily: "Hahaha, that's good, you know? When I went to the first class, the first thing the teacher said was, 'Bards are not just rich and beautiful noblewomen. It scared the hell out of me, and it immediately strengthened my determination to take this course. ”
Yi Shaoguang showed an expression of disbelief, like a little girl who was betrayed by the story.
"This ......"
The next sentence is even more impressive, he said, 'The same goes for the male aristocracy. ’。 I still remember his expression at this time was noble and pure, like a poet who dedicated his life to his ideals. ”
"Don't talk about it......"
"Don't worry, at least listen to this last sentence, don't you?" and he said, 'My dear little apprentices, it doesn't matter if you come to this course, whether you are interested in the bard, or because you are interested in legends, or if you are just passing the time. Since you have taken this course, you are our apprentice. You must always remember that bards can only target nobles. ’”
"Why? Shouldn't the bard find a good place with a fountain, take out his harp, and sing a melodious story?"
"The teacher said that this is only called earning extra money, not making money. ”
“...... No wonder the teacher told me to stay away from the bard. ”
As he spoke, Yi Shaoguang took a step away from Liu Zijin.
Liu Zijin looked at Yi Shaoguang, who had obviously relaxed, and smiled, and his eyes looked at the cave again.
"Let's go, let's go and see what's inside. ”
"Hmm. ”
The two of them walked into the cavern, and a churning heat wave came over them, and they saw a huge fire demon. The fire demon was lying on the ground, seemingly sleeping, and Liu Zijin smiled when he saw this, "Maybe we can go around." ”
As soon as the words fell, the cavern began to shake, and the stones continued to fall, rolling onto the fire demon's body, and disappeared again in an instant.
"Who? ”
The fire demon turned to the two of them, and the burning flame in his eyes turned cyan: "Oh, two sober humans, it's so strange. ”
"Where's the strangeness?"
"It's been years since I've seen a sober human here...... I miss it. ”
The fire demon didn't seem to have any intention of going to war yet, he had been lonely for a long time, and he was very excited about the sudden arrival of two people to talk to.
"Is it that long?"
"Before you, I think there were dozens, nay, hundreds of humans who came here too. Most of them had already drowned, and a few were still conscious, but all of them were scared to death when they saw me. Am I that terrible, you say?"
"Nothing to be afraid of, it's just that the skin is a little red, and the weather is too hot, right?"
"Yes, yes, you're right, it's so hot, it's too poisonous, you see, my skin is sunburned. ”
The flames in the place where the fire demon was pointing were burning a little more intensely, as if they were really sunburned.
"......Where? It's so pitiful, if it's so hot, how about going outside to cool off? It's all cool sea water outside, as long as you swim in it freely, no matter how hot it is, it will become cooler. ”
"I'm thrilled to hear what you said, but it's a pity...... The goddess told me to stay here and watch over my things, and I can't leave my post without permission. ”
"What did she tell you to guard?"
"Oh, you're here for this?"
"I'm afraid so. ”
The Fire Demon sighed deeply, the temperature around him rose a few degrees more, and he said in a disappointed voice, "It seems that we can't talk anymore...... Alas, I don't know how long it will take to meet the next person I can talk to. ”
After saying that, the Flame Demon's huge palm reached over, and he put his hands together, trying to grab Liu Zijin. In the next moment, only to hear the sound of "poof", Liu Zijin sword pulled out of the scabbard and slashed at the fire demon's hands, the fire demon's hands were cut open in an instant, but they healed in the next moment.
"You can't hurt me. ”
"Not necessarily. ”
Liu Zijin changed a sword, and an ice-blue short sword was held in his hand, and white points of light continued to flow on the body of the sword, like her teardrops.
"Everyone knows that fire is most afraid of ice and water, are you ready?"
"The world also knows that a drop of blood falls on a burning flame and disappears in an instant. ”
Liu Zijin raised his sword and rushed forward, starting a battle with the fire demon. Liu Zijin can always cut off the limbs of the fire demon, but the fire demon immediately regenerates in the next moment and launches an attack on Liu Zijin. Hit the back, the fire demon even deliberately set a trap for Liu Zijin with this feature, but the flames he fell were encapsulated and frozen in an instant, disappearing invisibly.
The battle between this man and demon fell into a scorching situation, and the two were evenly matched, and it seemed that they would never be able to tell the winner. At this time, Yi Shaoguang, who had been observing from behind, suddenly said: "He is not invincible, he has been deliberately avoiding your attacks on his left ribs." ”
"Well, I found out too. ”
Saying that, Liu Zijin began to deliberately attack in this direction, and the fire demon really didn't dare to directly hit it, so he chose to retreat.
"Compared to your strength, the way you fight is a mess. ”
"Human, you've me off. ”
In an instant, the fire demon's body doubled again, and the rock of the cave even melted because of the high temperature, and the magma continued to drip from above, like a rain of blood.
Liu Zijin swung upward, and the rock wall was frozen again, and then he withdrew his sword as if he had lost interest, and sighed with interest: "In the end, the boss is the weakest one...... It's boring. ”
"Are you underestimating me?"
"Yes. ”
"How can this be!!"
The fire demon roared and rushed forward, Liu Zi stood still without moving, he looked at the fire demon, and whispered: "One." ”
"It's useless to play tricks! Because of your arrogance, you will pay with your life!"
"II. ”
The flames under the fire demon's left rib began to fade away, replaced by a white freezing point.
"Three. ”
The freezing point quickly spread throughout his body, and the whole person of the fire demon was frozen in place, and his fingertips with teeth and claws stopped at the moment when they were about to touch Liu Zijin.
"Alas...... But did you know that ice can also freeze fire?"
The spreading ice didn't stop, and it crawled layer after layer, constantly adding a new layer to the fire demon. Eventually, the freezing point stopped spreading, and a huge ice flower bloomed in the cavern, and the heart of the ice flower was the frozen fire demon.
"Angry Ice Lotus. Shake the light, don't you think it's pretty good?"
Liu Zijin turned around and was about to invite Yi Shaoguang to move forward, but he only heard the crisp sound of clicking, and the ice flower began to loosen.
Liu Zijin turned his head in surprise, and in the position of the fire demon's left rib, a fire became more and more obvious, but this picture of fire was really too small, and it didn't look as big as Liu Zijin's fist.
Finally, it broke through the last layer of ice and flew out tremblingly, and Liu Zijin held it with one hand.
"What are you?"
"I ...... I am the first creature of the goddess, and my name is Xiao Yan......"
That's right, it wasn't a flame, but a little red furball flying.
"You're the fire demon just now?"
"Yes......"
"How did you escape?"
"The Goddess has endowed me with ...... immortality"
"I see, no wonder you were sent to be a guard. ”
Liu Zijin pinched Xiao Yan and felt that it felt very good, so he kept kneading it, but Xiao Yan dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he had to shrink in a ball and tremble.
"Are you ready to resist now? I'd like to see if I can kill the immortal thing. ”
“...... I won't resist! Please let me go!"
"Good ...... Then tell me, where is the thing that the goddess told you to guard?"
"This ......"
"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person. ”
"You...... You're the bad guy!"
Liu Zijin pinched it heavily and said with a smile: "I'm really not a bad person, to be honest, another goddess called me." ”
"Another goddess...... You mean, "Mistress Medea?"
"Yes, you know her?"
"Of course ......"
"You get it, then?"
"I see...... I'll take you. ”
Xiao Yan flew up weakly, and Yi Shaoguang, who had been watching quietly beside him, suddenly smiled, and at this time Liu Zijin turned his head and asked, "You seem to be a little different today?"
"Hmph...... I just knew what I had to do. ”
"Really, great. ”
Yi Shaoguang blushed and followed Xiao Yan up, while Liu Zijin also followed with a smirk. I saw Xiao Yan turn around in front of a complex device, and after some manipulation, a stone pillar slowly rose up, and a red ball was held in the center of the stone pillar.
"That's what you're guarding?"
"Right...... This is the heart of the scorching sun, and it will be given to you......"
"Oh, thank you...... Do you think I'm going to be stupid enough to go over and get it after I say that? ”
“............ Yes"
Xiao Yan seemed to have seen through the trick and flew over to take down the Heart of the Sun in disgust, and as he flew, he said to himself, "It's okay now, everything is over...... Forget it, I've been guarding it for so long, and I've completed the mission, don't blame me, why is the enemy so strong?
Finally, he stopped in front of Yi Shaoguang: "Here, I'll leave it to you." ”
Yi Shaoguang smiled: "Thank you......"
She stretched out her hand, ready to grab the heart of the scorching sun, and in the next moment, Liu Zijin's angry roar came: "Stop!!"
But it was too late, the blazing fire burst out, and Yi Shaoguang only felt that his eyes were white, and there was nothing left. In the next moment, the white light disappeared, and her vision slowly recovered, finally seeing what was blocking the light.
Liu Zijin stood in front of him with his arms outstretched, desperately blocking all the fire, and in front of him, the Heart of the Scorching Sun had disappeared without a trace.
Beside the two of them, Xiao Yan laughed arrogantly: "As I thought, you're still dead, right?" ”
