The crystal ball emits a soft glow, projecting an aerial view of the insect nest island thousands of miles away onto the table.
In the center of the island, there is a huge and deep sinkhole.
The source of all disasters, the "Abyss Wormhole", is located in the deepest part of the sinkhole. It is shrouded in a mysterious gray fog all day long, and the detection crystal cannot penetrate it.
According to Kona, the "Insect King" Abaddon is guarding the large wormhole at the bottom of the sinkhole, never leaving.
The thick fog that diffuses from the depths of the sinkhole was also created by the Insect King using some legendary magic, which can block all detection attempts from the outside world.
Gao Fei sighed, waved his hand to extinguish the crystal light,
Today's routine reconnaissance, as always, yielded little results.
It's impossible to see clearly what's going on in the fog just by relying on the "detection crystal".
The night before yesterday, he had secretly teleported to Insect Nest Island, intending to personally explore the sinkhole where the large wormhole was located.
He was ready for the adventure and had used various protective spells in advance, but the danger level on the island still far exceeded his expectations.
In fact, he didn't even touch the edge of the big wormhole. As soon as he got close to the gray fog, his health points dropped sharply. He was so frightened that he quickly teleported away.
Back at Ferrag Fortress, there was still a trace of gray mist attached to the outside of his left leg, constantly eroding the flesh and blood!
Gao Fei kept applying the "First Aid Technique" on his leg, but the milk didn't come back at all, and the "Breaking Barrier" didn't work either. He was about to corrode the bones.
At a critical moment, the fortress' "forbidden barrier" detected the invasion of dangerous creatures and sounded an alarm, alerting Connor, who rushed over.
Seeing the bloody flesh on Gao Fei's leg, covered with a layer of flowing gray mist, Kou Na was also startled. She quickly cast a spell to shape the "Black Blade of Disaster" and swung the sword against his thigh, demonstrating it to him on the spot.
Wave scraping bone healing.
The gray mist touched the black blade twisted by the crack in time and space, and was quickly sucked in. It turned from thick to light, and finally disappeared completely.
Kou Na was still uneasy, so she put away the black sword and transformed back into the six-armed snake demon.
He stretched out his two arms, picked up Gao Fei without any explanation, ran back to his boudoir, entered the bathroom, stripped off his clothes two or three times, and threw him into the huge bathtub like a swimming pool.
Under the bathtub is a geothermal hot spring, which has the magical effect of sterilizing, stopping bleeding and promoting muscle growth.
In the past, Kona was injured in battles. When she came back and took a bath in the hot springs, the wounds would heal automatically, and her skin would become smooth and smooth again, leaving no scars that would hinder her appearance.
Gao Fei soaked in the hot spring, and the wounds corroded by the gray mist were quickly purified. The rotten flesh and blood automatically decomposed and healthy flesh and blood grew again.
He was grateful for the first aid provided by Connor, but he had to say... Princess Blade's private bathroom was too hot!
The hot spring under my butt is bubbling!
Who can bear this?!
Gao Fei was almost cooked after soaking for less than two minutes.
Quickly transform into the red dragon form and acquire the fire subspecies constitution that is immune to high temperatures, thus avoiding being cooked alive...
Plop!!
Hot spring water splashes everywhere.
Connor jumped in, threw out her slender and soft snake body, and entangled the red dragon transformed into Gao Fei, making him feel a gentle suffocation.
"You kid! You are really a little expert at seeking death!" The contrast between Kou Na's ambiguous movements and fierce expression was too strong. "Tell me the truth, did you sneak away to the Insect Nest Island?"
Gao Fei had already seen her wearing his underwear in a literal sense, so he had no choice but to confess his risky actions.
After hearing this, Connor was so angry that her teeth itched. All six hands reached out and pinched him randomly several times before she could relieve her hatred.
Gao Fei is glad that he has transformed into the red dragon form.
If he were still in human form and was wrapped around and pinched by her in such a light-weighted manner, I'm afraid he would have been crushed to pieces long ago.
After Connor calmed down, he revealed the question in his mind.
"'Insect King' Abaddon is good at a legendary magic called 'Insect Storm'."
"The fog that envelopes the large wormhole is created by this legendary magic. It is actually countless tiny poisonous insects."
When Gao Fei came into contact with the mist, he was immediately entangled by countless tiny poisonous insects, which were like gangrene attached to his bones, gnawing at his flesh and blood crazily.
These tiny poisonous insects, or should be said to be a kind of supernatural microorganisms, are extremely lethal. Even fine gold can be easily bitten through, let alone fragile flesh and blood.
Poisonous insects are too tiny to be harmed by swords and are almost immune to physical attacks.
In addition, poisonous insects have extremely high resistance to magic and energy. Even if they are burned in fire, they will be difficult to get rid of in a short time.
Spells with radiance, force field or dissociation properties, including Kona's "Black Blade of Disaster", are one of the very few methods that can restrain this perverted poisonous insect.
Unfortunately, compared to the "Insect Storm" covering the entire "Big Wormhole", the size of the black blade is too small. It can only be used to remove trace amounts of insects contaminated on Goofy's body, but it is not enough to break the "Insect Storm".
It was precisely because of the fear of the "Insect Storm" that Kona had to give up the fight for the "Big Wormhole".
"You don't know anything, but you dare to wander in. It's not easy to survive to this day!"
Connor was coiled up in a snake formation in the bathtub, scolding her angrily.
"I have learned a lesson this time. I will not act rashly again until I find a way to crack the 'Insect Storm'." Gao Fei reflected.
"Hmph! Seeing that you have a more upright attitude in admitting your mistakes, I will forgive you this time!"
Kou Na's face suddenly changed, a charming smile appeared on her lips, and her fingertips gently rubbed his chest.
"Besides taking a bath, do you want to do anything else?"
"……In no mood."
"Hmph, you're smart!" Kou Na waved her hand lazily, "I'm going to take off all my clothes and take a comfortable bath... Get out now, I'll gouge your eyes out if you dare to peek!"
Gao Fei wiped away the cold sweat, thankful that his willpower was still strong and he had withstood a dangerous test.
…
It has been a week since I arrived at Ferrag Fortress.
During these peaceful days, in addition to monitoring the Insect Nest Island, Gao Fei also completed three homemade magic weapons, including two +5 blood steel-made sharp swords and a "mana-enhancing pearl".
In addition, I have to spend some free time every day to help Kona refine ore and forge weapons.
There are mainly three kinds of ores stored in Ferrag Fortress, including coarse crystal and abyss blood for steelmaking, as well as silver ore.
There is a silver mine near the fortress, and the workers are mainly low-level demons and kidnapped adventurers, digging for ore all day long.
To the devil, silver is not only a precious metal that can be used to mint currency, but also an important strategic resource.
The silver extracted from the ore is mainly used to silver-plate weapons and arrows, and to create sharp weapons for hunting down the old enemy in the bloody battle - the Baatezu devil.
Gao Fei looked at the clock on the astrolabe and saw that it was almost time for alchemy today.
It’s the end of the month, please give me a monthly ticket, thank you!
