A mournful wail resounded through the night sky. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chimera reluctantly closed her eyes and said goodbye to this world.

Albert dumped the frozen orb in his backpack on the ground and motioned for the Dinosaur Thunderpig to take it away, as a reward for it.

Just as the Dinosaur Pig was about to take the orb into his mouth, Bazel suddenly roared, his hands surging with golden light, summoning a huge totem pole.

"Whew!" the Dread-Jaw Thunder Pig did not show weakness, and roared and lowered its huge head, the silver light flowing on its fangs.

At that moment, Albert stood between the two beasts. "Roar, trust. He told Bazel, then waved his hand and motioned for it to get out of the way.

Albert's decision was made for a reason, not to give away a friend's belongings to a pig indiscriminately. He and Bazel are about to head to the Chimera's Caves, where there are still many frozen orbs. Of course, it doesn't matter if the Chimera is lying, as long as you search Mochizuki Peak, you will definitely be able to find the cave where the Chimera is found.

Bazel hesitated for a moment, and although he was a little reluctant, stepped aside.

The Dino-Jaw Thunder Pig let out a low roar, swept the orb into his mouth with his tongue, along with the gravel and sand, and staggered down the mountain.

At the same time, the Winter Storm Bear yelled at Albert and descended the mountain in the other direction.

As the two beasts left, Bazel looked around warily, then tore open the Chimera's abdomen, reaching out and pulling the core out along with the intestines.

"It's a collector. Albert's eyelids jumped, and he muttered, unpacking his bags and leaning in front of Bazel. He looked at the core, then at the bag, "Roar, give it to me." ”

"Roar. Bazel held the core, like a child guarding candy, and froze for a while before reluctantly throwing the core into his bag.

Albert patted Bazel's thick arm as a sign of comfort. Then he jumped on Bazel's shoulder, "Back mountain." He patted the big guy on the shoulder.

※※※

The sky is getting brighter, and the morning sun is breaking.

At this time, Albert, who had been searching all night, finally made a discovery.

A huge cave appeared before him, and the interior was pitch black, like the blood of a giant beast.

Albert and Bazel walked in, cautiously not daring to make too much noise, for the devil knew if it would be a Chimera's trap.

After some time, Albert and Bazel stopped at a fork in the road.

"Right. After a few moments, Albert made a decision, not by intuition, but by the magical aura that emanated from the inside of the cavern on the right, and although it was faint, he captured the familiar and intimate feeling.

Tick, tick.

Water was dripping from above the cave and standing under their feet, indicating that they were heading underground.

The dark cavern was silent, only the sound of water dripping and footsteps, like a passage to the underworld, which was creepy.

The road became more and more forked, and the surrounding area became darker and darker, and the dripping water kept falling like raindrops, and the water on the ground was already up to the ankles. Luckily, both Albert and Bazel have night vision, which allows them to see their surroundings so they don't get lost.

Albert continued to pursue the aura of magic, and his heart was excited.

He could already clearly feel the flow of mana, and he took a sharp breath of thin air, as if the source of mana that had sealed itself had been nourished.

He was a little impatient, and kept urging Bazel to speed up his pace.

I don't know how long it took, but it seemed like a full day. When the water had reached his waist, Albert arrived at a stone hall with obvious signs of excavation. The terrain in the hall is flat, a little higher than the cave, so there is no standing water. Albert jumped off Bazel's shoulder and walked into the stone hall, only to find a stone platform fifteen meters high, but he knew that the fountain of magic was on the high platform, and he could feel the majestic and pure magic.

Albert spun around, but found no steps.

He frowned and jumped on Bazel's shoulder again, "Jump." He let out a low growl.

"Roar!" Bazel nodded, and leaped hard, the ground cracking beneath his feet, leaving two huge footprints. It rose into the sky like a cannonball, nearly twenty meters above the ground, and landed steadily on the high platform.

"It's so beautiful, is this the Fountain of Magic? Albert couldn't have been more excited.

In the center of the stone platform is a small pool, about one meter in diameter and less than thirty meters deep, which is full of azure liquid.

In the center of the pool is a spring, bubbling with small bubbles that ripple on the surface of the water. He had never seen such clear water, let alone felt such pure magic.

Albert came back to his senses, suppressed his excitement, and walked slowly to the spring.

He trembled and stretched out his hands, picked up a handful of spring water, and drank it all. If measured in money, he has now drunk tens of thousands of gold coins.

"Ahh Beads of sweat rolled down his face, and he wailed in pain, his face turned pale, and he fell to the ground and convulsed.

Bazel scratched his head, leaned in front of Albert, raised his hand and put it down, a little at a loss.

After a few moments, Albert quieted down and returned to his natural expression.

He gasped for breath, not bothering to stand up or wipe his sweat and feel the change in the source of his mana.

"It's not enough. He muttered to himself, the seal of the mana source had loosened a bit, but it was too early to reopen.

Crawling from the ground, Albert leaned over to the Fountain of Magic again, took out a water bladder from his backpack, and filled it with a "goo-doo".

Looking at the full fountain of magic, Albert had some palpitations, it was too painful, an irresistible inhuman pain, like cutting the soul with a knife, stitching it up, and cutting it again.

Ruthless, he closed his eyes and drank all the spring water in his bag.

The pain came again, even more intense than the last time, and every pain nerve trembled.

Albert roared, his face twisted, and he looked terrifying. He could do nothing but endure this inhuman pain.

I don't know how long it took, the pain stopped again, and the source of mana still didn't reopen. Albert sighed, wiping the sweat that flowed into his eyes weakly, and his body was almost collapsed. Then he climbed to the spring and filled the bag again.

Albert mechanically pours water and drinks water.

Pouring water into his bag again, he had forgotten that this was the first time, and even his consciousness was a little blurry.

Drinking the fountain of magic, the pain struck again, and Albert roared like a beast. At this moment, there was a sudden loud bang in my head, as if there had been an explosion. Immediately after, the source of mana opened, slowly spinning, like a black hole, frantically absorbing the pure magic power in the fountain of mana. At the same time, the pain subsided instantly, replaced by an incomparable feeling of pleasure, which made Albert moan uncontrollably.

It worked, and a curvature appeared on the pale face of paper.

Despite knowing that this was an inevitable result, Albert couldn't help but be excited, it was the joy of being lost.

After calming down, he got up from the ground, closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, feeling the source of magic in his mind and feeling the surging magic in it.

Albert suddenly opened his eyes, almost exclaimed, and hurriedly pressed the green button of the combat power bracelet. He stared at the dial, which was displaying a string of blue values, 603.

It's true, Albert swallowed, his excitement indescribable.

But at the same time, he was also a little caught off guard, not knowing why he somehow became a six-star magician.

Albert thought to himself, but quickly laughed at himself and dismissed his ridiculous idea.

The Fountain of Mana does restore mana, but it has no effect on increasing the strength of mana.

If the Fountain of Mana can increase the strength of mana, those super strong and top powerhouses don't need to sit and meditate, as long as they occupy a Fountain of Mana, they can easily improve their strength.

Perhaps it was the over-the-top spell casting that opened up the source of magic power, and Albert nodded, and only this statement was more reasonable.

He retracted his thoughts and stopped dwelling on the reasons for the promotion, which seemed to make little sense and was not a bad thing in itself.

Looking at the Fountain of Magic beside him, the water level dropped by a full five centimeters, which made Albert feel a lot of pain. It's all gold coins, and if you convert the fountain of magic power you just consumed into gold coins, I'm afraid it will exceed a million coins. What kind of concept is this, I'm afraid that a high-ranking nobleman's domain doesn't have so much tax for the whole year. One million gold coins may be able to buy a title for a middle-level nobleman.

Of course, Albert is just cranky, and it is worth the effort to restore his magic.

Now his magic level and physical strength have reached the six-star standard, and his strength has increased several times. If he faces the Tiger King now, he is confident that he can overcome his opponent in five minutes. Of course, this also requires the opening of the Holy Soul, and the six-star and seven-star are cross-level challenges.

Packing his bags, Albert stood up.

"It's time to check out another cave. He muttered, and left the stone hall alone, not disturbing Bazel's sweet dreams.

The hole outside is open, and it's not bad for the big guy to stay here for the time being to guard the fountain of magic.

Even though the Fountain of Mana is of no use to the Monsters, it would be unfortunate if one of the Heartless Beasts accidentally broke in and released some excrement in the pool.

Albert frowned, disgusted just thinking about it.

Although the chances of this happening are low, they cannot be completely ruled out, and it is always wrong to be cautious.

The way back is not difficult to find, as long as you keep moving forward, which is a big blessing for a road idiot who has no sense of direction.

After some time, Albert came to the nearest fork in the cave and entered another cave, believing that the Chimera's frozen orbs had come from, because he could already feel the chill coming from the cave.
