Chapter 1630 Fire Elemental Elder
The Myconid King marked 'heat' on the map. I thought it was some kind of nickname, but I didn't expect that it really meant heat in the literal sense.
Of course, you have to go up.
Aldai took out a roll of rope and used magic to make it climb up the rock wall like a snake. Finally, she tied herself in a knot and tied it to a rock above, and the three of them climbed up along the rope.
Standing at the door, the blazing temperature is even more exaggerated. The thermal radiation makes people feel like standing next to a steel-making furnace.
Zola had to give everyone the ability to endure elemental damage to resist the continuous baking of the high temperature, and then they got through the crack in the door.
The first thing that comes into view is a passage that is clearly in the royal chamber style, but the difference is that two trenches have been dug out on the floor, and hot and sticky lava is slowly flowing along the trenches.
What is this? Could it be that an underground volcano has erupted?
The lava with a temperature of thousands of degrees flowed here and was only slightly cooled. You can see some black patches in the orange-red. It is not clear what the trenches dug in this corridor mean.
Because they were blessed with the ability to withstand elemental damage, the three of them were not burned even at such a close distance. Aldai even moved closer to the edge of the magma to check.
"This is not ordinary lava. I checked the nature of it coming from the outer realm. It may be lava heated by the flames of the fire elemental plane."
"Um...what's the use of this?"
"It has great uses, such as using it as a source of heat for forging."
This method is somewhat similar to the operation of the dwarves, but the dwarf's furnace needs to be made by a dwarf or a halfling. The dwarves alone cannot make the flames from the fire elemental plane.
"Let's continue walking inside. Even if the guy occupying here is not a dwarf, he is definitely a guy who is very familiar with the underground race."
Along the left side of the passage, the three of them continued to move forward. The hot and shiny lava made their eyes very uncomfortable. If there was no help from the air filter bubble, I am afraid that the high-temperature lava steam here alone would be enough to kill them.
This kind of place is obviously not for people to pass through. Even if there is a way to resist it, it is quite troublesome to reapply the protective spell every time you pass by.
Aldai felt that they should have taken an 'employee passage' and they would meet the 'employees' here soon.
Sure enough, when the three of them reached the end of the passage and turned, they saw several metal objects floating in the air appearing on the other side.
It was about half a person tall. From a distance, it looked like a metal speaker floating in the air. It had a cone-shaped bottom and a movable nozzle below.
This thing has the ability to hover and fly. Visually, it moves at a speed similar to that of a normal person walking. It may be faster in combat.
Considering the miserable state of the myconid tribe, if they were responsible for it, they would definitely be faster than the myconids.
After a slight glance, Aldai turned back and whispered:
"That's a magic casing, a cheap alchemy creature."
Usually alchemical creatures are created based on the alchemical core, and the most expensive part of the alchemical creature happens to be the alchemical core.
The magic shell is a cheap castrated version. It does not use the most expensive alchemy core, but uses the heart of the monster.
The advantage is that it is cheap, cheap and can be mass produced.
The disadvantage is that this thing is really just a shell. In terms of combat power, it cannot be compared with golems and golems. It is usually only around level 15~25.
Nemea was the first to jump out of the corner, took off the water bag from his waist and smashed it against the magic machine casing not far away.
In a high-temperature environment, the magic casing, whose shell could be used to make squid, emitted a large amount of white smoke on the spot, accompanied by a clicking sound caused by the deformation of the metal plate. This damage was not enough to stop their functions. The three magic casings immediately floated towards Nemea. When they reached five or six meters away, the nozzles at the bottom were aimed at her, spraying out dense flames. .
But Nemea had already retreated into the corner, and the flames didn't even touch her sides.
The three magic casings immediately turned the corner. The brains of the alchemical creatures were artificially retarded, let alone this cheap version.
They didn't expect that this was actually a trap. As soon as they turned the corner, Aldai had already raised her staff:
"Ice storm!"
A blue magical aura emerged from above the head, and the flickering sphere hit the magic casing like a meteor, without any hesitation, and just caught all three magic casings.
The metal in a high-temperature state was rapidly cooled by the ice storm, which caused the metal to suffer a huge thermal shock. The outer shells of three magic casings facing each other were covered with cracks.
Zola reached out and grabbed it, and the divine holy light formed a mace. He struck it three times, and everyone in the magic casing rushed to the street...
As I said earlier, this thing is just a shell, which is really very cheap.
Inside the magic casing, apart from the hose used to transmit magic power, there is only a green glass jar, which contains the heart of some kind of creature. When it was pulled out, it was obvious that it was still beating.
"It's the heart of the fire giant."
Aldai recognized:
"The handling method is very clever, it seems a bit troublesome."
The trouble is not the magic casing, let alone the fire giant, but the person who made the magic casing.
This thing is cheap, but making it requires high necromancy and alchemy skills. Aldai can see from the method of using force on the fire giant's heart that this person is not that easy to deal with.
Considering that he is a person who can open a portal to the fire elemental plane and attract flames, this guy is probably a spell caster of level 50 or above at least. As for going higher, it's hard to say.
But Aldai didn't panic. At worst, she asked Li Chengqi to come down and save her life. (Li Chengqi: Grass)

There was no loot to be gained from the magic casing. Aldai just checked the manufacturing method of the magic casing, and then the three of them moved on.
This passage was obviously in the style of a royal secret room, but it had been modified. Aldai was worried that the secret room where the information was stored would no longer exist.
Generally speaking, the core secret room can only be opened with the blood of the royal family, and it is even hidden. However, the one who occupies the magpie nest is not a simple underground creature, but a spellcaster above legend, so it is uncertain. .
Thinking of this, the three of them quickened their pace a little, but they still walked in this passage full of flowing lava for almost half an hour.
During this period, we encountered several waves of magic casings, but as long as these things did not gather in groups, it was not a problem. The myconid tribe would be destroyed by these guys, mainly because the magic casings completely restrained the myconids.
Immune to toxins and immune to mind control, this almost completely blocks the myconid's means of resistance. In addition, it sprays the weakest flame of the myconid, so it is strange that it can resist.
Aldai didn't quite understand why these magic casings came out to attack the myconids. If the spellcaster occupying the magpie's nest was controlling these magic casings, then this guy must have noticed Aldai and the others coming in.
But half an hour later, no legendary caster appeared to slap them in the face, and the magic casings were still in standby mode.
It's really confusing.
