Start a mysterious island
Chapter 960: Misfortunes never come alone (two chapters in one)
There was not a single cloud in the blue sky, and the huge sun hung high in the sky. The strong sunlight penetrated through the air, scorching the ground.
The weather was already hot enough, but now because of the terrifying lava monsters wandering around, the temperature has increased further.
If no one stops these lava monsters, the devastated area will expand further.
"call out……"
There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a two-meter-high boulder was seen drawing a parabola in the air and hitting a lava monster.
"Roar?"
The lava monster heard the noise and slowly turned its head. In its opinion, the flying boulder was not something to be afraid of.
"boom."
The boulder hit the ground, creating a shallow pit.
But the lava monster disappeared at this moment.
It turned out that at the critical moment, it quickly dodged to the side to avoid the sneak attack.
"This guy looks slow, but he's actually very agile!"
"I told you, you can't hit it with a rock."
"How will you know if you don't try?"
"It's all written in the book. If you read more, you'll know how to play."
"Can you two stop arguing? That lava monster is rushing towards us..."
Several people made a sneak attack on the lava monster, but failed to succeed. They encountered the lava monster's counterattack, and some of them fought with it in a hurry.
Scenes like this happened one after another in this area, with one team after another besieging the lone lava monster.
The originally slow-moving lava monster, after being attacked, showed a speed and power that made people look at it.
Facing the siege of humans, he resisted without any haste.
On the mountain in the distance, Lin Li was hiding behind a big tree and observing quietly. He raised his hand to touch his chin and muttered to himself.
"These people are not weak in strength. Although they can't do anything about the lava monster for the time being, as long as they persevere and wait for the prey to reveal its flaws, they can kill it."
After a while, a lava monster was killed at the scene.
After the lava monster died, its body cooled quickly and turned into an ordinary stone.
The few people who were besieging the lava monster looked at the dead lava monster with happy smiles on their faces.
A young man jumped on the lava monster's body, then waved the weapon in his hand and struck the lava monster's body that was exuding residual heat.
"boom."
"Wow."
The corpse of a dead lava monster is just a pile of rocks, which will break apart after a few hits.
Then the young man squatted down and searched among the rubble.
"What is he looking for?" Lin Li was full of doubts. He knew that the purpose of these people coming here to hunt the lava monster would be revealed soon.
"Have you found it?" the young man's teammates asked.
"found it."
"Wow! So beautiful."
After the dead lava monster was smashed into pieces, he searched for it and found a red gem the size of a pigeon egg.
This ruby has a bright color and unique luster. If it is processed by a jeweler, it can be made into very beautiful jewelry.
However, for practitioners, using rubies obtained from lava monsters to make jewelry would be a waste of resources.
The young man came to his teammates, spread his hands, and then injected some psychic energy into the ruby in his hand.
"Buzz..."
The ruby that absorbed psychic energy began to emit psychic energy fluctuations. It turned out that it was not only a beautiful ruby, but also a precious material used to make spiritual weapons.
"Hehe... This is the first one. We have to find a way to get more today."
"Okay, don't waste time, let's quickly find the next lava monster."
"I remember that there is a lone lava monster in that direction. Let's go there quickly and don't get robbed by others..."
A few people chatted happily for a few words, then put away the trophies and quickly went elsewhere to find the next lava monster to hunt.
One after another, teams obtained rubies, and there was a burst of laughter.
Lin Li hid in the dark and took in all the scenes that happened on the battlefield.
Originally, he planned to leave and go hunting for strange beasts elsewhere.
Now that he saw people harvesting rubies on the battlefield, he immediately changed his mind.
…………
"It's been a long time since I came here, and I just hunted two lava monsters." A tall girl holding a spiritual sword looked at the two rubies in her hand and frowned.
"Liu Huimin, there are so many people here now, it's already good that we can hunt two lava monsters..." said a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
"Gao Qi, if we hunt less than ten lava monsters this time, I'm afraid we won't even be able to earn back the registration fee..." A tall and thin young man sighed.
"Wang Man, just tell me what you think." Liu Huimin looked at the tall and thin young man and said.
"Uh..." Wang Man hesitated for a few seconds, and then said what he was thinking.
"That's what I thought. There is a small group of lava monsters over there. Let's attack them."
Gao Qi's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and he immediately rejected the proposal.
"The group of lava monsters you mentioned has a total of five. It takes us a long time to deal with one of them, and we have to deal with five dead ones at the same time..."
Wang Man shrugged, "If you want to hunt as many lava monsters as possible, you can only attack these lava monsters that gather together."
Gao Qi insisted, "It's too dangerous. Although I came here to hunt lava monsters to make a quick buck, it's useless no matter how much money I have if I risk my life."
Wang Man obviously valued money more and responded unhappily.
"I borrowed money from friends to get enough registration fee. If I lose money on this trip, I won't be able to explain to them when I go back... And if I remember correctly, your registration fee seems to be borrowed from others?"
"This..." Gao Qi was speechless after hearing this, and didn't know how to respond for a while.
The people who came here to hunt lava monsters this time were all practitioners from civilian backgrounds. Most of them were short of money and couldn't afford the registration fee, so they asked some relatives and friends to raise money.
"It's too dangerous, it's better to be safe." Gao Qi was still worried about accidents.
"Although the five lava monsters are not easy to deal with, they are not extremely dangerous.
As long as we are careful, even if we can't beat them, there is no problem in escaping..." Wang Man said confidently.
Liu Huimin saw that the two companions were arguing, and hurriedly interrupted them, and then as the captain, she made a decision.
"Okay, stop arguing. We all know what's going on now. Just do what Wang Man says..."
When Wang Man saw Liu Huimin make a decision, a smile suddenly broke out on his face.
Gao Qi, who was standing by, was confused, but since the captain had already made the decision, he could only do it.
After all, before the three decided to cooperate, they had already discussed this situation in advance. If there was any disagreement, the captain's decision would prevail.
…………
Five lava monsters gathered together and moved slowly along a small river.
𝘴𝘵𝘰55.𝘤𝘰𝘮
The high temperature emitted by their bodies evaporated the river water. The river water, which was originally one meter deep, was now half as deep.
"Swish..."
An arrow flew out of the bushes not far away and shot at the five lava monsters at a very fast speed, hitting the lava monster at the back.
"Roar..."
The lava monster that was hit was very angry and turned his head to look at the bushes.
Wang Man jumped out and made some provocative movements.
The angry lava monster immediately left the team and rushed towards Wang Man.
"This guy is faster than the lava monsters I hunted before." Wang Man was startled when he saw the lava monster running towards him, and then turned around and ran away.
The other lava monsters saw their companions chasing Wang Man, but did not follow to help, but continued to move along the river.
Running all the way, the lava monsters chasing Wang Man kept shortening the distance.
"This distance is almost there." Wang Man stopped and shouted to the woods not far away, "You can start."
The lava monster's IQ is not high. Seeing that the target no longer runs away, without thinking much, he jumped up and rushed forward.
"Be careful." In the woods, Liu Huimin saw the lava monster burst into a fierce attack, while loudly reminding his companions, and threw a gray-brown stone in his hand.
Wang Man has been on guard against the lava monster. When he saw the other party jump up and pounce on him, he dodged to the side at the first time.
The heat wave swept over. Although he avoided the fierce attack of the lava monster, his skin was burned by the heat wave, and many small blisters appeared, and he grimaced in pain.
The lava monster missed and smashed a big hole in the ground. When it stood up and prepared to chase Wang Man again, something flew towards it at a very fast speed.
"Bang."
The gray-brown stone thrown by Liu Huimin hit the lava monster's head. The next second, the gray-brown stone was melted by the high temperature of the lava monster and turned into a pool of sticky mucus.
"Roar...?"
The lava monster was stunned for a second at first, and then it roared in pain.
The mucus that the gray-brown stone melted into was slowly corroding the lava monster's head.
"It's hit, hurry up." Liu Huimin ran out of the woods, shouting to Gao Qi who was ambushing in another direction, while mobilizing the spiritual energy of Dantian to inject into the weapon in his hand.
"Hah." Gao Qi heard the shout, and he jumped up from the bushes after lying in ambush for a long time, and then swung the big hammer to hit the head of the lava monster.
The head is the vital part of the lava monster. Once it is completely destroyed, it will die.
The lava monster that was attacked quickly raised his hands to block in front of him and resisted Gao Qi's big hammer.
"Bang."
Although the big hammer has spiritual power, it is still not enough to break the defense of the lava monster.
A loud collision sound rang out, and the reaction force made Gao Qi almost lose his grip on the weapon.
The high temperature emitted by the lava monster is not something that ordinary people can bear. Even if Gao Qi's activated defensive spiritual weapon can block the high temperature, it is not a long-term solution. The battle must be resolved before the defensive spiritual weapon fails.
"Take another hammer from me." Gao Qi stepped on the ground and jumped up, his arm muscles burst, his body leaned back slightly, and swung the big hammer to hit the lava monster again.
"Bang."
This heavy blow was effective, and the lava monster was knocked to the ground.
"Roar..."
The lava monster was furious and was about to get up when he heard hurried footsteps beside him.
"Cross Slash." Liu Huimin came to a position six or seven meters in front of the prey and stopped suddenly. Then she activated her superpowers and swung the spiritual weapon sword in her hand.
"Buzz."
The spiritual weapon sword infused with spiritual energy, with the blessing of Liu Huimin's superpowers, formed two cross-shaped golden sword beams when it was swung.
"Swish..."
The cross-shaped golden sword beams were extremely fast, and the distance between the two sides was very close, so the lava monster could not dodge when it found danger.
"Boom."
The lava monster was hit hard by the fierce attack, and its slowly corroded head was directly blown away.
The head is the vital part of the lava monster, and the lava monster will definitely die.
Staggering, the huge lava monster fell to the ground with a bang, and the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from its body dissipated.
Then, its body cooled quickly and turned into an unremarkable stone.
"It's done." Wang Man, who was burned by the heat wave emitted by the lava monster just now, was very happy.
"Are you okay?" Gao Qi asked the injured Wang Man with concern.
"It's just some burns, it's okay." Wang Man waved his hand, then took out a can of burn ointment from his pocket and applied it to the burned area.
The three people were short of money and only had two spiritual weapons that could defend against high temperatures.
Liu Huimin and Gao Qi had to deal with the lava monster at close range, so the spiritual weapons that could defend against high temperatures had to be handed over to them.
The two came to the dead lava monster, and Liu Huimin had already found the ruby from the chest of the lava monster.
"My tactics are good, right?" Wang Man said to his two companions proudly.
"Yeah." Liu Huimin, who was looking happy, put the spoils into her pocket and nodded slightly.
Gao Qi on the side said worriedly, "You don't have a spiritual weapon to defend against high temperatures, so it's still quite dangerous to lure the lava monster."
Wang Man said confidently, "Don't worry! It's not that easy for the lava monster to kill me. At most, I will be burned."
"..." Seeing his companions say this, Gao Qi sighed in his heart. He thought that he would act as quickly as possible to ensure that his companions would not have any accidents.
"Now we have only obtained three rubies, we have to hurry up." Liu Huimin looked up at the sun in the sky and said.
Then, the three of them returned to the original route to find the other four lava monsters, ready to follow the same method and kill the other four lava monsters one by one.
However, the development of things was unexpected. Liu Huimin and the other two had just walked forward more than a hundred meters when they saw four lava monsters rushing towards them aggressively.
Wang Man exclaimed, "Oh no, they are rushing towards us together!"
Liu Huimin's face was solemn, "How could this happen? Who angered them?"
Gao Qi guessed, "Maybe the lava monster we just hunted attracted them. Let's run away quickly."
Liu Huimin and the other two had to set up an ambush to deal with a lava monster. Once they faced four angry lava monsters at the same time, they had no chance of winning.
Escape became an inevitable option at the moment, but in times of crisis, bad luck always follows.
"Roar..."
Beast roars sounded in other directions. Liu Huimin and the other two who were about to turn around and escape found that several lava monsters appeared behind them, forming a circle that left them with no way to escape.
"It's over." Wang Man said in despair.
"Damn it." Liu Huimin clenched the weapon in his hand, cold sweat broke out on his smooth forehead, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.
"I'll hold them back later, and you find a chance to break through." Gao Qi said in a deep voice.
"Let's go together." Liu Huimin and Wang Man responded in unison.
