Chapter 440: The Eighth-Order Warcraft on the Volcano
Chris looked at the panicked Jonathan and asked, "What happened?"
Jonathan swallowed and said, "A very large scorpion appeared near the crater. It injured many people and prevented us from mining rock flame powder."
"I know." Chris said seriously.
Sulfur (rock flame powder) is a strategic material for making gunpowder. No mistakes can be allowed, and all obstacles must be removed immediately.
Chris put An Qi on Xiao Hong's back and said, "An Qi, go home now, dad has something to do."
"Ah, dad, are you leaving again?" An Qi said aggrievedly, tears seemed to flash in her eyes.
Chris touched her soft hair and comforted her: "Be good, after this period of time, daddy will definitely stay with you."
After the development order is over, if we rescue that annoying guy from the Black Dragon Palace, we will probably be able to relax.
"Okay, Dad, you have to be careful." An Qi waved her white little hand.
"Well." Chris warned, "You have to rush back as soon as possible and don't be too playful on the way."
"knew."
Watching An Qi go away, Chris had nothing to worry about for her safety.
There is no danger in Thorn Ridge, and An Qi is protected by a powerful sixth-level monster. Only a seventh-level strongman can hurt her.
Besides, with the red dragon-armored crocodile's super speed, it can still run away if it can't be beaten.
······
Chris took Jonathan and continued northward: "Tell me, what exactly is going on?"
Jonathan said with lingering fear: "Yesterday, as usual, I went to deliver living supplies to the miners under the volcano. At that time, they were sweating profusely mining rock flame powder. As a result, they suddenly dug a huge cave, and soon they were digging from inside.
There was a strange noise."
"Not long after, a fiery red scorpion crawled out of the cave. The miners were frightened, dropped their tools and started to run away, but dozens of people still died from its pincers and tail hook.
Next. In addition, hundreds of people have symptoms of red and swollen skin. They are sweating all over and their bodies are limp and weak."
"The scorpion wreaked havoc on the site, and many mining equipment was broken in its claws."
Chris could conclude that the opponent was definitely a relatively high-level fire monster. He continued to ask: "How long is that red scorpion? Can you feel what level of monster it is?"
"With the naked eye, its body length is about fifteen or six meters." Jonathan said after thinking for a while, "The level is too much higher than mine, I can't sense it."
Chris had an idea in his mind, and based on his body shape, he concluded that the scorpion was at least level seven.
Except for dragons, ordinary monsters cannot grow very big.
Moreover, near the volcano, the fire element must be quite strong, which is very beneficial to one's own fighting.
······
Chris and Jonathan sped up and finally arrived at their destination after half a day.
The height of the volcano is estimated to be two to three thousand meters, and the top is flashing with red light.
There was a strong smell of sulfur on the tip of his nose, and the environment here made Chris feel very comfortable.
Many tents were set up at the foot of the mountain, and the miners shivered inside.
More than twenty knights walked back and forth to maintain order at the scene and to prevent anyone from escaping.
After seeing Chris arriving, the knights all saluted: "Your Majesty!"
Hundreds of miners came out of their tents and crawled to the ground.
"Well, how's the situation on the mountain?" Chris asked.
A knight replied: "Many mining tools were destroyed by that damn scorpion before we had time to put them away. It stayed outside and did not return to the cave, preventing us from going up the mountain."
"That means it didn't come down the mountain to attack you, right?"
"That's right, Your Majesty."
Chris said: "Take me to see those injured people."
"yes!"
The knight opened the way ahead and led Chris to the tent in the middle.
“So hot~”
"Hey, it hurts so much."
Several shirtless men were lying scattered in the tent. Their skin was red, like cooked prawns, steam was rising from their foreheads, and large areas of skin peeled off their faces and chests.
Based on the symptoms of these miners, Chris guessed that they were poisoned by fire.
Chris walked up to one of the men, used his nails to make a small slit in the other's palm, and then sucked out the fire element from his body, and a large amount of hot air came out.
The man's skin recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his condition improved a lot.
Reputation from Brown 10.
"Hey, I'm fine?" The man named Brown got up, with a look of surprise on his face, "Thank you, young man."
The knight next to him yelled angrily: "Are you blind? This is our great king."
Brown was startled and immediately fell to his knees: "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"What's your crime?" Chris smiled and said, "Have a rest and wait until I get rid of that scorpion. Then you can get ready to work."
After saying that, he turned around to treat others.
When the people around learned that the young man treating them was actually His Majesty the King, they were immediately flattered, and even the reputation points provided increased.
Reputation from Oddington is 50, Reputation from Baroque is 60...
After Chris healed all the injured miners, he looked up towards the mountain and could vaguely see a red figure moving back and forth inside.
"Everyone stay put and wait for my news." Chris ordered.
"yes!"
Chris raised his feet and headed up the volcano. In order not to alarm others, he did not turn into a red explosive dragon as soon as he came up. Instead, he flew in the form of a dragon and rushed on.
The further you go up the mountain, the more intense the fire element becomes.
By raising your hand at will, you can summon a large number of elements for your own use.
In this environment, Chris estimated that he could challenge the Shadow Leopard King Gretel without losing.
More than ten minutes later, he arrived halfway up the mountain.
A huge scorpion blocked Chris' path.
As Jonathan said, this scorpion is fifteen meters long, and its outer carapace is translucent red. It has two large pincers, which are about one-third the size of its body, and it looks quite powerful.
What surprised Chris even more was that judging from the aura displayed by the other party, it was clearly an eighth-level magical beast.
He couldn't understand why there was such a powerful guy in the volcano.
The red scorpion touches its pair of large claws together and makes a "clanging" sound, which is full of threats.
"Roar!" Chris roared and immediately turned into a red explosive flame dragon, which was much larger than the guy opposite him.
The collision of dragon claws also makes a "clang" sound.
