Chapter 179: Unexpected Danger
At this time, Gordon felt like he was motivated!
If it weren't for the fact that it was already late in the evening, he would have been eager to run out of the camp right now to dig up the powder rock and return to Dondoruma overnight.
He has wanted to learn how to charge up and slash for a long time, but the big sword envoys who know this move are basically high-level hunters.
Not having acquaintances is one thing, and high-ranking hunters generally don't have that idle time.
Even putting aside the true charge slash of the ultimate meaning of the big sword, the strong charge slash that has been mastered during the three-star hunter period is actually a little flawed.
After all, no one has specifically taught him the mysteries, but after listening to a drunken high-ranking sword envoy and constantly groping it out, there will always be some problems.
Driven by this eagerness, Gordon woke up earlier than anyone else the next day.
It is customary to cook a large pot of paste with the food you carry, stretch and warm up and do it all over.
Isn't it just gunpowder rock, as long as the master craftsman has a demand, let alone three, we will also carry it back for you!
Inside the camp, before departure.
Julius pulled out a simple hand-drawn map and spread it out side by side with the hunting ground map provided by the guild.
There were very few road idiots among the hunters, and after a little comparison, the three of them quickly overlapped the terrain depicted on the two maps.
Julius took out a charcoal pen and circled the location of the camp on the map of the hunting grounds, "Here we are, at the foot of the mountain, about two kilometers north, there is a hole.
Entering the belly of the mountain through the entrance of the cave, there is a very large space where there is a huge lava lake. ”
Julius drew a cross in the location of the lava lake.
"There are a large number of lava beasts, red speed dragons, and giant bees living near the lava lake, which is the biggest obstacle for us to carry the gunpowder rock, so be careful when passing through."
"Understood."
"Okay."
Gordon Anhil Qiqi should be.
"After detouring through the lava lake, we will see another cavern that leads to a cavern deeper underground, which is supposed to be some kind of monster's lair.
The hunter who discovered the Powder Rock before was the one who collected the Powder Rock from there. ”
"Is the powder rock in the lair buried in the ground? Or is it embedded in a rock wall or something? Gordon asked, raising his hand.
Julius's eyes also showed a hint of doubt.
According to the hunter, Powder Rock was 'buried like an egg in a lair,' and he thought it was some kind of dragon egg with a rocky shell.
After research by scholars, it was confirmed that it was some kind of rock with a special structure.
It should be easy to find. ”
Gordon's expression became subtle, and he had a bad premonition.
"All in all, the route has already told everyone that due to the high temperature on the volcanic ground, you can't put the powder rock on the ground halfway, otherwise it may be detonated.
From the nest to the camp, the whole journey is about three to four kilometers, Gordon, are you sure? Julius looked at Gordon.
Gordon gestured "no problem".
"By the way, this is for you." Julius pulled out two vials of pale yellow potion and handed them to Gordon.
"Forced pills?" Gordon raised an eyebrow.
Since the Twin Blades frequently use a strengthening technique called "Oni-Humanization", which requires a high level of stamina, many Twin Blades carry this special potion that makes the body less fatigued when hunting.
"Well, drink it before carrying it, and after we take the Powder Rock, we'll run at full speed and rush out of the monster's lair as fast as we can, through the lava lake area, and the rest of the journey will be much safer." Julius explained.
"Understood." Gordon nodded, and put the forcible pills away.
The last time I drank this stuff seems to be when I stole dragon eggs a few years ago.
It's not very auspicious, take out the transfer gold coins to say goodbye.
"That's all for the basic precautions, the rest of the part, everyone is not a novice, let's adapt, let's go."
The trio walked out of the camp.
The vigilant queue began to accelerate, swiftly but silently navigating through the undulating foothills of the volcanic terrain.
They avoided the attention of all monsters as much as possible, even the weeping dragons on the migrate.
These hulking herbivores are timid and do not pose a direct threat to hunters, but their heavy feet and howls can attract more dangerous predators.
If you can't get into trouble, you won't get into trouble.
After more than ten minutes, they crossed this route and reached the mouth of the cave that led to the lava lake in the belly of the mountain.
"It's not a difficult road." Gordon looked back at the way he came, "I don't see any dangerous monsters, as long as I can bring the Powder Rock here, it's basically a success." ”
"That's true."
Julius took out the cold drink and drank it down, "The real danger is all in the next halfway. ”
Anhill and Gordon also poured cold drinks, and the three of them plunged headlong into the cavern that emitted heat and red light, like the entrance to hell.
Outside the cave, the temperature of more than 40 degrees Celsius is already very hot.
Then, if you do not take cold drinks or equip special armor to isolate the heat in the belly of the lava lake, you will be scalded to death by the heat for ten or twenty minutes at most.
"I feel like in this kind of place, the effect of cold drinks can't even last for half an hour." Anhill, who likes to feel the direction of the wind with the skin of his face and assist in calibrating shots, rarely lowered his face armor.
Even ignoring the heat radiated by the magma, the continuous golden red light alone already made people feel stinging in their eyes, and in order to protect his eyesight, he had to use his visor to filter out the bright light.
"Then let's move quickly, remember to move lightly." Julius, who was in charge of clearing the way, took another step and walked as far away from the lava lake as possible.
It's not just to escape the heat, it's also to get away from the lava beasts that are writhing in the lava lake.
These small monsters are very hot-tempered and very aggressive.
However, it may be due to the fact that they live in magma all year round and their vision is not very important, and they will not be detected if they are a little farther away.
"Shhhh
He hurriedly put his teeth to his lips and let out a whistle that deliberately lowered his volume.
Julius and Ansill, who were walking ahead, received the signal and stopped at the same time, turning their heads to look.
Gordon made two tactical gestures, "Alert" and "Observe", and then pointed in the direction of the center of the lava lake.
Julius's eyes narrowed slightly, and Anhill directly set up the crossbow and borrowed the scope to observe.
In the middle of the lake, a huge dorsal fin broke through the surface of the lake formed by the hot magma, and in an instant, it continued to dive and disappear into the lava.
"Yan Gelong!" Anhill and Julius's faces sank.
This is a sea dragon monster that lives in the depths of lava and is also the adult form of Lavamon.
In terms of ecological niche, Lava Beasts are similar to small monsters such as Sickle Crab and Red Speeddragon.
However, as an adult individual, the Yan Ge Dragon is a powerful monster that can compete head-on, or even surpass, with powerful flying dragon species such as the Male Fire Dragon and the Boom Dragon.
The guild's danger rating is five stars.

In the future, I have content to ps.,I'll write a "ps" at the end.,And then talk about it in the chapter review.,Interested readers can take a look.,Otherwise, there will be a charge for the number of words in the chapter and the number of words is suspected of emmm.
For example, in this chapter, there is ps~
ps. Since the male fire dragon is mentioned, let's explain the ecological niche problem of the fire dragon family mentioned by a book friend before.
In the early works (P,G,2,2G), the difficulty of the male fire dragon and the female fire dragon is about the same, but from 3 onwards, the difficulty of the male fire dragon is increased, and the lowest level of the hunting task is five stars in the village, while the female fire dragon is four stars in the village.
That is, from 3 onwards, the ecological niche of the male fire dragon is higher than that of the female fire dragon.
The reason why this book positions both male and female fire dragons as four stars, after all, the Kokot Village corresponds to the early stage of the game series.
As for the Yan Ge Dragon, it can easily repel the male fire dragon in the setting, but it is not defeated by the Dinosaurus and the Black Boom Dragon, so it is positioned as a five-star.
The Hammer Blaster is simply because of the hardness, the fleshy nmd dung monster of this family.
