Chapter 313 "A Corner of the Volcano"

Deep inside the volcano.

Anti came here stepping on the corpses of a group of volcanic cursed bodies.

Big Mouth is on strike. After the incident in Cinder City, we know that Big Mouth is actually a cat's tongue. It can eat hot things but has no desire to eat them.

When I looked into the distance before, there was a huge underwater crater not far ahead, which was the crater of an underwater volcano.

On the edge of the crater, Anti saw some rock buildings that imitated the shape of Helvendes coral.

He walked in ready to fight, but the feedback he received was pitiful.

The gas reactions in the building were few and vague. With the accuracy of Anti's regular gas sensing when he was not in the blood-encroaching state, he could not even guarantee whether there was really life inside.

However, there are still some high-temperature heat sources, but their number is just as small, and the number of cursed bodies is not as many as outside.

This large-scale building was originally built by the Havendes sea clan who were responsible for monitoring this place. After the volcanic forces were unified, they continued to imitate this architectural model and promoted it to the depths of the entire Exiled Volcano.

All the buildings surrounding the crater are connected together, forming a seamless whole.

It is obvious that many buildings have suffered extensive damage, with signs of lava flowing or burning.

Even after reaching the depths, Anti still couldn't feel any more life. Apart from the fact that the cursed body was slightly more dangerous than outside, the buildings left here made it like a ghost town.

"Are there not many residents left in the deep?" Anti swam through the aisle and looked around.

The surroundings were very quiet and nothing was moving. Occasionally, one could hear the sound of something moving in a corner that was not visible.

It could be a cursed body, or a survivor.

Halfway through the swim, Anti suddenly stopped.

There is a feeling of being watched, but it is difficult to figure out the source of the sensation.

I tried to trace it back, but the feeling quickly disappeared, like an illusion.

Anti knew that his perception ability was derived from the sensitive torture that had never dissipated, so it was impossible for him to be wrong.

After searching in vain, Anti moved forward again.

Suddenly the building began to shake.

The source of the vibration is the mountain below the building.

Anti kicked the stone pillar beside him and rushed forward. The ground where he was originally located bulged upward and cracked, and high temperature and bubbles spread all around.

Beyond the bubble that blocked his vision, what Anti saw seemed to be a sharp claw made of lava.

The claws are made up of limbs similar to those of deep-sea reptiles and fangs and teeth from other creatures, but under the high temperature, these features are also flowing with magma, and their outlines quickly blur and rot, and they are swallowed up by the surrounding lava, but they can quickly condense and extend again.

what?
Before Anti could take a closer look, the lava claw had already groped its way towards him.

Wherever the claws passed, magma gushed out, melting the surrounding buildings mercilessly.

Anti seemed to know why huge melt gaps would appear on the buildings on the crater from time to time.

Sparks ignited on his body and he pulled out a stone hammer from his waist with one hand.

Magma and fire are completely different things physically, but their symbolic meanings in miraculous studies overlap. Based on this, Anti has the basis for intervening using the Ashes and Flames state.

When Anti entered this state, the magma that was flowing and splashing wildly suddenly became silent.

Then, they all pounced on him at an even faster speed.

Before Anti was swallowed by the magma, the first thing he felt was the "spirit" that had not yet melted from the magma.

In an instant, in Anti's eyes, the thing rushing in front of him was no longer boiling hot magma, but countless indescribable things that were burned beyond recognition, with only some blurred outlines remaining on their bodies, and finally forcibly kneaded into a ball. Their empty eye sockets were flowing with magma, like tears, casting a longing gaze at Anti.

Greed, shouting, asking for help, hatred...

A lot of emotions surged up at once, and Anti's figure was directly swallowed by the magma.

Swish!
A figure suddenly broke through the wall, grabbed Anti, rushed out of the lava with him, and quickly fled into the distance.

Anti blinked, came to his senses, and looked at the person who was holding him.

A mermaid, not a fish-man. It is a mermaid that conforms to the classic image, with a human upper body and a fish tail in the lower body. This mermaid is a male, and his whole body also has severe burns and melt marks.

The most important thing is that the junction between his body and the fish tail is constantly sprinkling out bits of lava, which is spliced ​​and not coordinated.

The lava mermaid swam very fast, shuttling back and forth in the intricate terrain, leaving the lava claws behind in an instant.

"It's ready now." Anti said after he felt that the high temperature source in the distance had faded away.

Hearing this, the mermaid's swimming figure quickly slowed down until it stopped, and then let go of Anti.

Anti then came face to face with the other party. The mermaid's face should have been handsome, but it was melted by the magma and had missing pieces here and there.

There was no trace of the whites of his eyes, as if there were only two balls of lava flowing there. Only a few strands of his shoulder-length hair were left hanging, and the rest was completely bald.

It looks really miserable.

"Thank you." Anti thanked him politely. He relied on his connection with the flames and was caught off guard by the huge spirit in the magma. However, in the worst case, if he did not resist, he would just be burned by the lava, which was not dangerous.

But the other person still saved me, so I should still say thank you.

The mermaid shook her head slightly and said, "You...can feel our spirit..."

The other person's voice was also hoarse and leaky, very unpleasant to the ear, and even difficult to hear clearly.

"Why... did you come here?"

"The backbone of the Great Whirlpool and the life of the Lord of the Volcano." Anti did not hide anything and stated his intention directly.

The mermaid was slightly moved when she heard this: "The life of the Lord of the Volcano? You...want to kill it...it has become a monster..."

It didn't finish its words because magma flowed out of its mouth.

Anti waited for him to slow down, then said, "Well, that was the Lord of the Volcano, right?"

Maybe it was because he didn't see the whole picture, or maybe it was because Andnight's mood of having fun came up again, and Anti didn't get the hint from Night Eyes about the "corner of the volcano" just now.

But combined with the information I learned previously and my own personal experience in the state of fire possession, that thing can only be the master of the volcano.

"Yes, it... no... they... they are the master of the volcano..." The mermaid spoke more slowly, "The volcano... has... merged into one..."

Why does it feel like this brother is about to die?

"Please... please free them... thank you... for us..."

Before he could finish his words, the mermaid in front of him completely shattered, turning into a ball of lava that rolled hotly in the water. After a moment, it cooled and solidified into a ball of pitch-black stone.

...really dead.

Anti found the inspiration for this man's extraction from the stone.

[The broken inspiration of the rogue cursed body in "Furnace Volcano": The inspiration of a rogue cursed body in "Furnace Volcano". After absorption, it can increase the extra induction power to a small extent, and increase the perception of special miracles. The crazy accumulation of Furnace Volcano will not intentionally curse anyone, but the chaotic mental impact may be a curse. ]

——He was once a human who served the Lord of the Volcano. He gave his loyalty to the volcano in gratitude for the volcano's protection of his people. When the Lord of the Volcano became the Wandering God, he did not retreat and was willing to be one of the first to help. He once believed that the Wandering God Volcano could reverse the decline of the Deep Ocean Center, but the furnace swallowed up innocent people one after another until it melted the people he had originally protected...】
