By the time Gordon woke up in the fiery magma lake, he had already heard a faint sound coming from above.

But in the vicinity of the crater lake, no creature's every move can be hidden from its ears and eyes, after all, this is its home turf, and some unusual sounds are easily recognizable by it.

This is......

The sound of tiny footsteps?

Gordon did not hesitate, and when he woke up, his exhaustion had been swept away, and it was the rhythm of hunger and intending to feast, so he immediately got up and floated up from the red, bubbling hot magma like a fish in water.

Nearly ten meters long, the body is extremely agile in the magma, and its vigorous posture can be called beautiful, but no one can see the beauty of this molten dragon in this lava lake.

It poked its head out of the lake, and its nostrils were suddenly exposed to the fresh air, and it could already smell a smell of flesh that made its index finger move.

Elk meat, and still seven ripe.

Gordon swallowed, although true dragons do not need to eat to survive and grow, but each true dragon has its own unique taste, and the molten dragon, like its cousin, the red dragon, likes steaming fresh blood, and the more tender the meat, the better.

It didn't hesitate, its tail forcefully lifted its huge body upward, and it didn't take much effort to climb up to the not high platform and see the source of the food clearly.

Three golden elk, already roasted, were roasted on a shelf, and the tempting fat was falling into the flames with the turn of the venison, making a diligent sound.

Next to the roast venison, there is also this busy figure.

It was Celia and Nina, who were surrounded by blue aura.

Although Nina is a true dragon of the water system, after possessing the magical magic [Endurance Environment], she does not have high requirements for the environment.

She can also move freely in the magma cave, but it is still a little difficult for her to bathe in the lava.

At this time, the two also saw Gordon who was emerging from the head, and Nina put down the barbecue tool in her hand with a look of surprise and said to Gordon excitedly.

"Mr. Gordon, you're awake!"

"The hosts. ”

Celia's respectful voice was mixed in.

"Hmm, how long have I been asleep?"

"One day and one night, three more hours. ”

Nina replied coquettishly.

"So you know I'm going to wake up?"

Gordon asked with surprise as he looked at the venison that had been roasted on it.

"Guess!"

Nina smiled? She won't say? I have a kind of dark feeling, just like the last time I was in Nanhai Town.

But? Is it too shameful to say that? She felt that she should retain a little mystery.

And Gordon didn't care about that, it had already stepped forward? Hundreds of pounds of roasted venison were swallowed and poisoned in a few bites.

With a mouthful of scalding, fragrant tender venison sliding into the esophagus? Gordon was a little more comfortable.

After all? The real dragon is only to satisfy the appetite, and if you want pure food, this bit of meat is not enough to eat.

Nina and Celia, on the other hand, watched Gordon quietly and did not make a sound.

After sweeping away the roast? Gordon squinted slightly? Comfortably hiccuped.

Seeing that Nina and Celia were staring at him, Gordon couldn't help but show a few rows of snow-white teeth, and began to ask how the two of them felt about life on the island these days.

The answer, of course, is satisfactory.

For Nina, whenever Gordon is there, she's satisfied.

And Celia went with the flow? Being able to live slowly on a deserted island is a bit boring.

But with a true dragon lord? It shouldn't be too boring.

After all, she was also an adventurer.

What's more? She's not alone facing a dragon, but Nina and Liz!

And Gordon? After eating, I chatted with them for a while? I remembered that I should do some preparations.

What to do before leaving? Its expedition could last for several months, and it would have to give the cats some tasks at that time.

It has not forgotten that it is now a turbulent year, and it is not clear when it will erupt, but if there is, it will definitely be a big move.

At that time, if it doesn't have the capital to settle down, even if it has a panel, I'm afraid it will only be a speck of dust of the times.

Therefore, a few hands of preparation must be done.

For example, in the rocky sea, look for a safe and navigable passage in case you need it.

After all, it is also a boat now, and it has enough manpower, so there is no reason why it should not start sailing.

It needs someone to listen to the news and exchange supplies.

The support that was exchanged in Karandu before was okay for a while, but if you want to be long-term, it definitely can't.

What's more, although it has a group of dependents who don't need money, and they also have their own food and accommodation.

But if you want to grow, you can't rest on your laurels, so you have to plan ahead.

And all of this has to be prepared before it leaves.

Including the exploration of the surrounding map and the distribution of forces, someone needs to give it information.

You know, it doesn't even have charts, although the last time I was planning to leave the port, I saw a route map, but in this place, for example, there is no one in the route.

How to know the direction.

In this world, there is not only one free city of the Amm Empire, Karando.

In the vast sea, it will never be ordinary, just let it dominate here.

Besides, even if it is the king here, it can't change the fact that it is still underage.

In a turbulent year when there are about to be many lichs and legends are everywhere, almost any ripple between the great battles between the Sages can raise its dust.

Gordon is not short of time, but what it lacks most now is time.

In order to live in a world that is already a little real to it, it has accepted the identity of the molten dragon, and feels that it is necessary for it to live.

In place of the soul that died in the shell, enjoy this magnificent world to the fullest.

So, Gordon took Nina and the others out of the volcanic cavern and called Sinlut and them, who were busy.

After giving some instructions and arrangements, Gordon handed him the boat in a bottle, and asked him to train a group of sailors.

Then, it didn't forget the fish-like man who was still underwater, the coward, and summoned it on the beach, and after learning that there were still no other creatures in the underground sea, Gordon didn't tell it anything.

After all, it is just a lonely fish, unable to do anything, and its strength is not good, so it can retire with peace of mind.

Gordon already had plans to raise some sea beasts here for defense.

Whales, or sharks, should be a good choice.

It hadn't forgotten that it had gotten the talent of [Taming] from the Fish-Turned Spellcaster.

What's more, Nina is also an aquatic dragon, and she can just be responsible for one thing.

This will also help you a lot with your future plans.

"Well, it's kind of beautiful to think about the cat-like man who stepped on a shark. ”

Gordon shook his head, tossed out the imaginary image, and began to prepare for other things.

Stay until two days later.

In the volcanic cavern, a black true dragon with a head drilled out of the magma lake, and his brows were tightly locked.

It sighed as it looked at the progress bar of the colored light cluster that only it could see, still stuck at four percent of the time.

It couldn't wait any longer, and it seemed that its dream of having it parsed before entering the plane had been in vain.

The day before, it was still looking forward to the progress bar jumping dozens of times in one go.

But now that Rika Island is busy, it can only take the first step.

Before opening the door to the plane, Gordon explained the precautions to Nina and Celia before asking them to seal the volcanic cavern with earth.

If it is traveling on a plane, the nine-ring spell [Astral Projection] that comes with the golden pocket watch can allow it to have a clone that perfectly replicates the original body to act outside, but this also means that the physical body of the main body will lose consciousness.

When the time comes, if someone wants to harm it, it won't have time to react.

Therefore, it is best to disguise the island as a normal island.

Previously, the altar dedicated to it had been ordered to be torn down, and all information that would reveal its identity had also been ordered to be sealed.

After thinking carefully about whether there were any mistakes or omissions, Gordon carefully sorted out the equipment on his body again.

The ring that summons the fire elemental elder, the [Staff of Withered] that stores the [Finger of Death] that I don't know how many shots there are, the [Stored Magic Ring] that has already stored spells, and the [Ring of Shadow] that can hide in the shadow plane.

There are also scattered material potions, dragon scales dismantled from a dragon scale vest taken from the dry bones of a nobleman in the Blue Rose Manor, potions that can increase the power of its breath, and a potion of oblivion, and invisibility potions, etc.

It also has a lot of scrolls, as strong as the Fireball Scroll, as stable as the Transfiguration Scroll, each with its own characteristics.

After all, Gordon now understands that its strength may be enough in front of those noble children.

But in front of some experienced adventuring squads, it is still a young dragon, and it is still just a child.

The main reason why Gordon was so interested in this trip to the plane was that after reading through the Traveling Mage's Codex in the past few days, he had found the source of the medium he had left for him in Gormodan's travels.

Among them, the most critical in the travel of the traveling mage plane, the root thing [Mithril Stone], the location of the Mithril Mine, is slightly mentioned in it.

It's just that the words are too vague, but what is certain is that the location of the Mithril Mine he recorded is indeed in the leaf of the [Fairy Forest] among the three mediums.

As for the whereabouts of the other two mediums, Gordon did not see them in the Codex.

Now, though, Gordon's primary goal.

Still have to find that Mithril vein.

In this way, before the Mithril Stone used to activate the plane gate is exhausted, it can travel through the plane without any worries, and can freely choose the time to return.

As long as you don't take the initiative to find a god to die, even if it is a high-level legend, you can't destroy it.

Thinking about it, Gordon silently recited the incantation, and a bright light large enough to appear through its closed door appeared at the bottom of the lava out of thin air.

The frame of the gate is carved out of aquamarine, and the keystone is a white gem the size of a goblin head. Deep runes are carved into the gems. The door itself was made of iron, but even at the bottom of the lava, Gordon could feel the cold to the bone.

Thinking about it, Gordon did not hesitate any longer, and as instructed in the Codex, he placed the medium in the middle of the door, in the groove of the transparent gem.

Fluorescent green leaves are inserted into the door, and then a number of Mithril stones are inserted, and under the door frame, small gears begin to rotate as the Mithril stones are inserted.

Gordon tugged at the doorknob that had been carved through a gargoyle and pulled it open. Gordon's eyes twinkled as the door opened.

Behind the door is a universe filled with giant spinning discs. As far as the eye can see, these staggered gears are engaged and operational, supporting each other. At first glance, there is something glowing on the disk.

But Gordon soon realizes that the lights are entire cities inhabited by strange creatures, after all, Tunaras, the capital of death of the famous Gisyankees, was built on the corpse of a god.

Is this the Astral Plane?

Gordon's eyes twinkled, and without hesitation, he followed the codex and activated the golden pocket watch.

--Nine Rings Spell [Astral Projection]

The next moment, Gordon was in the middle of the starry sky, and was pulled by a dark force.

Is that?

Gordon looked at the verdant world above him.

The door in the void behind him had closed, and Gordon could only see where a black dragon body wrapped in lava was unharmed.

Without hesitation, Gordon headed in the direction of the plane's door.

"Elven Wilds!"
