This is a strange city filled with flaming creatures.
Flame creatures are not good at building and casting, so most of the city buildings are caves dug into the dark red rock walls, connected by winding tunnels. In order to accommodate the huge size of most flame creatures, the cave roofs here are
It opens very high and the passage is spacious enough.
Just like most human cities, this city of flames also has hotels, taverns, grocery stores, arcane shops, auction houses and other buildings. But the people who run these places are not necessarily natives of the fire elemental plane.
Fire creature.
Greem mingled with the crowds of people, walking around this flaming city that was only three or four miles from north to south, and with only twenty or thirty shops in total, he unexpectedly discovered
A materials shop run by a wizard.
Tok material line!
Looking at the shop name written in wizard script outside the simple cave, Greem's heart moved slightly and he couldn't help but walked in casually.
This is a very simple cave, with an area of only about one or two hundred square meters. Rows of stone slabs are cut out on the walls of the store, and some weird and unidentifiable items are displayed on them. But there are no exceptions.
Yes, they are all imbued with rich power of fire.
A listless little fire spirit was lying on the counter. When he saw a customer coming to the door, he slowly stood up and looked at Grim.
Judging from his appearance, he seems to have the strength of an advanced apprentice level.
Of course, Greem still looked like a tall first-level fire spirit, with a red and blazing flame body slowly dragging a fire tail as he slowly walked into the shop.
The moment the little fire spirit stood up, the fox-like humanoid face showed a hint of joy at first. After seeing the appearance of Greem's fire spirit clearly, the excitement and enthusiasm that had just risen fell again, and again
He returned to his original listless appearance.
"I wonder if you want to buy something or not? If you want to sell something, I'm afraid the store is a little inconvenient these days. If you want to buy something, all the things in the store are displayed here. You can
Take your pick..."
This set of rhetoric seemed to be something it had already memorized by heart, and it spouted off a lot of words in one mouth. However, Greem's attention was not focused on the flame material it introduced, but instead pondered over and over again.
Huo Ling's expression changed the moment he saw him.
The moment it saw customers coming to its door, it beamed with joy. This was 'human nature' and was understandable. But after seeing the appearance of Greem Fire Spirit clearly, its face gradually faded away. It seemed that it was not happy for the customers to come to its door.
.
There seems to be something weird here!
Greem scanned the shop and suddenly discovered several unknown items with witchcraft runes etched on their surfaces. Judging from these signs, it was certain that this shop had some relationship with wizards.
"You...are...the owner of the shop?" Greem's incarnation as a fire spirit asked in a slow and hesitant tone.
The language of the fire elemental plane is an ancient and long-established indigenous language, with a very sparse vocabulary and an extremely weird accent. It is almost difficult for experienced plane travelers to master it.
As a level 2 wizard, Greem naturally does not have this problem.
The part of knowledge related to language can be easily extracted from the soul fragments of indigenous creatures by using the 'spiritual technique'. As for the unique accent of flame creatures, it can also be simulated by modifying the internal structure of the flame incarnation.
Therefore, during these days, in addition to absorbing the essence of fire to improve his flame affinity, Greem spent more time observing and imitating local indigenous creatures.
Regarding Greem's incarnation as a fire spirit, the other party was not suspicious, but shrugged helplessly.
"This shop is not mine, I am just a helper hired by the human wizard. We... the shop owner... were captured by the lord. It has been several months and we have not been released yet..."
Greem's heart trembled when he heard this, and he immediately thought he had done something wrong.
To be honest, since entering the fire elemental plane, all the flame creatures I have seen appear to be intelligent, but they still appear to be clumsy, a little sluggish, and not flexible enough. I originally thought that the third-level flame tiger I encountered earlier was a special case.
, but now it seems that I really underestimated the Fire Lord.
The other party arrested the wizard who opened the shop, but did not order the shop to close. It was obvious that they were planning to set up a net to fish for fish. I am afraid that everyone who enters this shop will inevitably be subject to strict interrogation by the Fire Lord's men.
Although his disguise is very realistic, if he is caught and investigated by the other party, his fault will definitely be revealed.
At this moment, Greem, with his keen perception, was able to detect that seven or eight powerful flame humanoids were rapidly approaching the shop.
"Does this shop have a back door?" Greem grabbed the little fire spirit and asked urgently.
"Yes, behind..." The little fire spirit was frightened. Before the tender flame hand could point to the position, the tall fire spirit in front of him had turned into a flame, flashed through the narrow door, and disappeared.
Inside the winding stone path.
Greem's incarnation of the fire spirit had just disappeared, the heat was rolling inside the store, and a large group of extremely vicious lava giants rushed in from the outside.
"Where's that big guy who came in just now?"
"Tell me, where is it?
"explain……""
Several five to six meter tall lava giants surrounded the little fire spirit who was only one and a half meters tall, roaring with deafening violent sounds.
The little fire spirit, who only had the strength of a senior apprentice, almost collapsed to the ground with fear, pointing to the back of the shop with his trembling little fingers.
Immediately, without saying a word, several lava firemen overturned the obstructing counter, banged open the stone door that was only half as wide as their bodies, and quickly chased out.
Greem quickly walked through the alley behind the store. As he walked quickly, his tall flame body quickly twisted and deformed. When he arrived at the entrance of the alley, he merged into the flow of people coming and going.
, his body has grown from 5 meters to 3 meters, and even many details of his face and appearance have undergone some minor changes.
If the other party were to look for him based on his previous appearance, it would be impossible to suspect him as a slightly 'skinny' first-level fire spirit.
What's more, fire spirits, flame spirits and fire elements are the most common forms of flame creatures in the fire elemental plane. Almost half of the flame creatures on the entire street have the same humanoid form of burning flames like Greem.
At most there are slight differences in some details.
However, such a difference is almost difficult to detect for creatures that are not native to this plane!
During these days, Greem had dissected and scanned many low-level fire elements, the body structure and appearance of fire spirits, and coupled with the subtle energy control of the chip, he was able to comprehensively and minutely analyze the fire spirits he had encountered.
Copy it.
With the sound of footsteps, several lava giants ran out of the alley, grabbed the nearest fire spirit, and pulled it up to their eyes for a long time to examine it carefully.
Most of the fire creatures are violent and wild, with almost no discipline at all.
This first-level fire spirit was suddenly attacked. Although he knew that he was no match for the lava giants in front of him, the flames around his body still surged angrily, and a stream of high-temperature flames swept towards the opponent.
A ferocious smile appeared on the rough and tough face of the leader of the lava giants. He grabbed the fire spirit and threw it viciously to the ground. With just one blow, the fire spirit's flame body fell to pieces.
After a dozen or so seconds, the fire spirit regrouped its flame body and re-wrapped its core.
"According to the order of Lord Ates, spies from outside the world have recently sneaked into the Dustfire Canyon. Now, all the fire spirits are following me to go to the Lord's Hall to verify their identities. If anyone dares to resist, this guy will be your fate!"
The lava giant stood up straight, stepped on the unlucky fire spirit, and announced loudly in all directions.
Upon hearing such an order, the Flame City, which had been peaceful just now, exploded and boiled instantly.
The fire elements are all very bad-tempered, so how can they tolerate such a birdish attitude? They waved their arms angrily at the lava giants, and some of the bad-tempered ones even began to condense burning fireballs in their palms.
He looked like he would get into a fight if he disagreed.
Just when the whole street was in chaos, Greem was among the angry fire spirits and took the lead in throwing elemental fireballs at the 6-meter-tall, solid second-level lava giant. The next moment, hundreds of fireballs were fired.
Fireballs of different shapes roared and smashed towards each other.
The faces of those lava giants changed instantly.
My dear, so many fireballs! Although the power of each one is not very strong, the power of the explosion when such a number of fireballs are superimposed is not much smaller. Even if they are as solid as their bodies of steel,
Not even the lava giant dared to bear it calmly.
Several lava giants immediately gathered together, crouched down, and used their solid lava backs to protect the more fragile body parts.
Bang bang bang...
After a loud noise like the earth was shattering, a small mushroom cloud slowly rose from where the lava giant was entrenched, and then a blazing flame shock wave formed in a ring and swept away in all directions.
At this moment, the entire Flame City could not help but tremble slightly!
"Bold! Resisting the lord's order is rebellion. Come on, take them all back to prison..." With a roar that shook the sky, the lava giants who were responsible for guarding and vigilance all over the city rushed out one after another.
The fortress launched an attack on every fire spirit within sight.
The whole city instantly became a mess! (To be continued)
