Chapter 1244 Insect Mist
The crystal ball emits a soft glow, projecting a bird's-eye 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 at the deepest part of the sinkhole. It is shrouded in mysterious gray fog all day long, and the detection crystal cannot penetrate it.
According to Kona, the "Insect King" Abaddon is guarding the wormhole at the bottom of the sinkhole, never leaving.
The thick fog that diffuses from the depths of the sinkhole is also created by the Insect King using some legendary magic, which can block all attempts to detect from the outside world.
Gao Fei sighed and waved to extinguish the crystal light.
Today's routine reconnaissance, as always, has little gain.
Relying on the "detection crystal" alone, it is impossible to see the situation in the fog clearly.
The night before yesterday, he secretly teleported to the Insect Nest Island, intending to personally explore the sinkhole where the wormhole is located.
He has prepared for the adventure and cast various protective spells in advance, but the degree of danger on the island is still far beyond his expectations.
In fact, he didn't even touch the edge of the wormhole. As soon as he approached the gray fog, his health dropped rapidly, and he was so scared that he quickly teleported away.
Back to the Ferragu Fortress, there was still a trace of gray fog attached to the outside of his left leg, constantly corroding his flesh and blood!
Gao Fei kept slapping "First Aid" on his leg, but it didn't heal it at all, and "Break the Barrier" didn't work either. It was about to corrode the bones.
At the critical moment, the "Forbidden Barrier" of the fortress detected the invasion of dangerous creatures and sounded the alarm, which alarmed Kona and she hurried over.
Seeing Gao Fei's legs covered in blood and flesh, and covered with a layer of flowing gray fog, Kona was also shocked. She quickly cast a spell to shape the "Disaster Black Blade", and swung the sword close to her thigh, demonstrating a wave of bone scraping and healing for him on the spot.
The gray fog touched the black blade twisted by the cracks in time and space, and was quickly sucked in, turning from thick to thin, and finally disappeared completely.
Kona was still worried, so she put away the black sword and turned back into the six-armed snake demon.
She stretched out her arms, picked up Gao Fei without saying anything, ran back to her boudoir, entered the bathroom, stripped him of his clothes in two or three strokes, and threw him into the huge bathtub that was like a swimming pool.
Under the bathtub was a geothermal hot spring, which had the magical effect of sterilization, disinfection, hemostasis and muscle growth.
In the past, when Kona was injured in battle, she would come back to soak in the hot spring, and the wound would heal automatically, and the skin would become delicate and smooth again, without leaving scars that would hinder the appearance.
Gao Fei soaked in the hot spring, and the wound eroded by the gray mist was quickly purified, and the rotten flesh and blood were automatically decomposed, and healthy flesh and blood grew again.
He was very grateful for the first aid provided by Kona, but he had to say... Blade Princess's private bathroom was too damn hot!
The hot spring under his butt was bubbling!
Who could stand this? !
Gao Fei was almost cooked in less than two minutes.
He quickly transformed into a red dragon and gained the fire subspecies physique that was immune to high temperatures, so as to avoid being boiled alive...
Plop! !
The hot spring water splashed everywhere.
Kona jumped in, swung out her slender and soft snake body, and wrapped Gao Fei's red dragon, making him feel a gentle suffocation.
"You kid! You are really a master of death!" Kona's ambiguous actions and fierce expression were too contrasting. "Tell me the truth, did you sneak to the Insect Nest Island?"
Gao Fei had been seen through by her literally, so he had to confess his adventurous actions.
After hearing this, Kona was so angry that her teeth itched. All six hands stretched out and pinched him several times before she felt relieved.
Gao Fei was glad that he turned into a red dragon.
If he was still in human form, he would have been crushed long ago if she had wrapped him up and pinched him so carelessly.
After Kona calmed down, she revealed the doubts in his heart.
"'Insect King' Abaddon is good at a legendary magic called 'Insect Swarm Storm'."
"The fog covering the big wormhole was created by this legendary magic. It is actually countless tiny poisonous insects."
When Gao Fei came into contact with the fog, he was immediately entangled by countless tiny poisonous insects, like a thorn in the bone, gnawing at his flesh and blood frantically.
These tiny poisonous insects, or should we say a kind of supernatural microorganism, are extremely lethal. They can easily bite through even refined gold, not to mention fragile flesh and blood.
The poisonous insects are too small to be hurt by swords and knives. They are almost immune to physical attacks.
In addition, poisonous insects have extremely high magic and energy resistance. Even if they are burned in the fire, it is difficult to eliminate them in a short time.
Spells with light, force field or dissociation attributes, including Kona's "Disaster Black Blade", are one of the very few means to restrain this abnormal poisonous insect.
Unfortunately, compared to the "Zerg Storm" that enveloped the entire "Big Wormhole", the size of the black blade was too small. It could only be used to remove the trace amount of Zerg on Gao Fei, but it was not enough to break the "Zerg Storm".
It was precisely because of the fear of the "Zerg Storm" that Kona had to give up the fight for the "Big Wormhole".
"You kid don't know anything, but you dare to rush in. It's really not easy to survive today!"
Kona coiled in the bathtub like a snake, scolding Gao Fei unhappily.
"I have learned a lesson this time. I will not act rashly before I find a solution to break the "Zerg Storm." Gao Fei reflected.
"Humph! Since you have a more correct attitude to admit your mistakes, I will forgive you this time!"
Kona suddenly changed her face, a charming smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and her fingertips gently stroked his chest.
"Besides taking a bath, do you want to do something else?"
"...No."
"Hmph, you're smart!" Kona waved lazily, "I'm going to take off my clothes and take a comfortable bath... Get out now, I'll dig out your eyes if you dare to peek!"
Gao Fei wiped his cold sweat, thankful that his willpower was still strong enough to withstand a dangerous test.
...
It has been a week since he came to Ferag Fortress.
During this peaceful period, Gao Fei not only monitored the Insect Nest Island, but also completed three homemade magic devices, including two +5 blood steel-making sharp swords and a "mana enhancement pearl".
In addition, he had to take out some free time every day to help Kona refine ore and forge weapons.
There are three main types of ores stored in Ferag Fortress, not to mention coarse crystal and abyss blood steel, 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 ore all day long.
For demons, silver is not only a precious metal that can be used to mint currency, but also an important strategic resource.
Silver extracted from the ore is mainly used to silverize weapons and arrows, making sharp weapons to hunt down the old enemy in the bloody battle - the Baatezu Devil.
Gao Fei looked at the clock on the star disk, and it was almost time for today's alchemy.
It's the end of the month, please give me a monthly ticket, thank you!
