Chapter 0727 Burning Plains
One month later.
After crossing the rugged hills and mountains, Grimm and his six companions finally arrived at the legendary Burning Plain.
As soon as they climbed over a steep hill, the world in front of them suddenly changed.
The bright sun in the sky was covered by a layer of gray mist, and only a dark red spot of light could be vaguely seen.
However, what attracted people's attention more was not the sky and the ubiquitous heat waves here, but the landforms and terrain here.
Looking far away, there was no other color except the dark red earth and red rocks. The once magnificent peaks and continuous mountains were twisted by a strange force and became a burning place with almost extinct vitality.
Cracks and lava pools of various sizes can be seen everywhere on the earth. The long-term and large-scale eruption of underground volcanoes has turned the rocks here into lava and permanently changed the landforms and terrain here. The majestic volcano, the broken mountain, and the jagged and sharp lava area make every outsider who visits here secretly sigh that the destructive and destructive power of nature is so powerful!
In the distance at the end of the sight, a huge volcanic cone is still spewing thick black smoke and volcanic ash. Every now and then, some violently burning lava rocks will fly out of it, and then drag a long black smoke tail, rolling and falling somewhere randomly.
At the foot of the volcano, a river composed of fiery red magma is winding and surging, and many strange elemental creatures can be seen playing and playing along the way.
Grimm retracted his gaze from afar and put his eyes back on the land under him.
The thick leather boots gently crushed his feet. This place can no longer be called land, because there is not even a bit of wet soil to be seen, all of which are fragmented rock fragments.
"Ding, the environmental detection data has been completed..."
"The main components of the air are as follows: nitrogen 63, oxygen 24, carbon dioxide 12, methane 0,8..."
"Air temperature: 46 degrees Celsius..."
"The air contains a lot of toxic and harmful substances, which will cause great harm to the human body..."
"The main body's physique is compatible with the environment here, the activity of cells in the body is improved, the sensitivity of elements is improved, and the mental and physical recovery ability is slightly improved..."
...
Silently checking the data collected by the chip, Grimm couldn't help but sigh secretly. This is just the outer area of the Burning Plain, and the temperature is as high as 46 degrees. If it advances to the middle of the Burning Plain, the temperature there will probably explode in a minute!
If I were still an ordinary person, the environment here alone would be enough to kill me a hundred times. Not to mention going in to slay the dragon, I would be dead if I couldn't even see a dragon hair.
However, now Grimm, who suddenly came to such a world, can feel the relaxation and indulgence from all over his body. The scorching wind and the crazy heat not only did not threaten him, but also invigorated him, and the blood in his body began to stir slowly.
With a light rustling sound, the rock debris at Grimm's feet rolled aside, and a small fire lizard more than half a meter long came out of it, staring at them blankly for a long time, and then hurriedly fled to the distance with all four legs.
"Let's go, it's still more than 400 miles away from the fire dragon's nest, we have to hurry up!" Grimm quickly looked around and took the lead to walk towards the tall volcano in the distance.
Mary, Oliven, and Bilis were all wrapped in thick black cloaks, covering all their physical features tightly, and silently followed Grimm to the distance.
The goblin Tigule was too short, and half of his long robe dragged behind him, making a rustling sound when he walked. The dragon man Zacha's huge body could not be concealed, so he simply threw off his cloak, wearing a bright wind spirit armor, holding a lightning spear in one hand and a frost hammer in the other, and followed the end of the team with a swaying step.
At this point, the previous invisibility set is no longer useful.
Anyway, with the strength of the team, even if it fights the second-level fire dragon, it will not be inferior to the other party, so everyone did not bother to hide their bodies, but swaggered straight to the magnificent volcano.
After all, the meeting place they agreed with the old fox Wenlier was there!
Although the Burning Plain looks harsh and desolate, there are still many fire creatures and elemental creatures hidden everywhere.
As Grimm and his party strode forward on the rustling gravel, there were hot and greedy eyes projected from the cracks of dark red rock fragments, the shadows of tall and broken lava boulders, and the dark and thick gray clouds in the sky, always lingering around the crowd and refusing to leave.
Instinctively, these alien creatures could sense the cold and fierce breath of Grimm and his party, so they did not dare to attack rashly. But out of the instinct of bloodthirsty creatures, they were unwilling to give up these rare fresh blood food in vain.
Therefore, invisibly, Grimm's team was moving forward slowly, and groups of fire creatures could be seen around them.
Finally, after Grimm and his party went 30 miles deep into the Burning Plain, they encountered the first group of "blind" guys who dared to block their way.
This is a patrol team composed of ten Blackrock Clan orcs!
Blackrock Clan orcs, a small branch of the huge orc bloodline.
They are all strong and muscular, and they walk with the gait of bears and tigers, looking very ferocious.
Since there are almost no trees and output in the Burning Plain, these orcs are wearing special leather armor made from the fur stripped from fire creatures. And their weapons are also varied and varied.
There are rough and simple stone sticks, broken bone spurs from giant creatures, and of course, more exaggerated and ferocious metal hammers or giant maces.
Each orc warrior is more than two meters tall, with a broad body and a round waist, and his body is full of solid muscles like iron blocks. Huge mouth and fangs, strange rune patterns painted on the face with red paint, and huge nose rings vibrate and ring with heavy breathing.
The leading orc slammed the heavy metal war hammer in his hand in front of Grimm and his party, blocking their way.
Its fierce and ferocious eyes quickly swept across this strange team, and finally set its sights on the tall dragon man at the end of the team.
"Hey, big guy, which master are you serving? Why did you come to our place?"
The orc captain used typical orc language, of course, it was mixed with some strange dragon language pronunciation, so it sounded particularly awkward. But Grimm and others didn't care. Instead, they stared at the orcs with a cold look through the shadow of the hood.
The basic level of these orcs is only the quasi-wizard level, but each of them has the physical fitness of a 1st-level body-refining wizard. And living in the Burning Plains for many years, the fire resistance formed by their bodies is much stronger than that of creatures in other regions.
But in front of Grimm's team, their "tiny" power is really not worth mentioning!
"Who's going?" Looking at a group of little guys who are only quasi-wizards showing off in front of him, Grimm smiled grimly and asked privately.
Oliwen didn't move.
The goblin Tigule grabbed the crystal puppet amulet on his chest, still hesitating whether to release the goblin tearer now. Before the dragon Zacha took a step forward and opened his mouth, Mary had already made a move with a sweet smile.
Red shadows flashed in the field.
Mary brushed off her hood, revealing her beautiful face, and in her right hand, which was sticking out of her robe, she was holding a huge heart that was still steaming.
The orc captain's eyes were wide open, staring at the heart in the other's hand that was still beating slightly with an unbelievable look. After a long time, he remembered to look down at the huge hole in his chest that was still gushing with blood. It was empty inside, and the heart had disappeared.
That heart was his own...
Before this thought was finished in his mind, the orc captain roared, threw away the weapon in his hand, and then his weak body fell heavily on the ground.
Mary raised the orc's heart, raised her neck, and drank it like drinking wine, then spat several times and threw the orc's heart far away.
"The blood of these orcs is so smelly... Damn it!" Mary's bloodshot eyes flashed fiercely: "Billis, these guys are all in your hands!"
Billis, the insect wizard covered in a black robe, responded to the words, stepped forward, raised the wide sleeves in his hands, and a large group of black insects swarmed out, and suddenly turned into ten black arrows in the air, shooting at every orc present.
Seeing this, the orc warriors roared and raised their weapons, splitting the oncoming black arrows into powder. But these black powders suddenly dispersed, and once again turned into groups of black insects that pounced on the faces and bodies of the orcs.
Almost in an instant, the nine orc warriors and the orc captain who fell to the ground were completely overturned by a layer of crawling black beetles.
The orc warriors threw down their weapons and desperately slapped the bugs on their bodies with their huge fists and palm-leaf-like palms. With the muffled sound of bang, many black beetles were beaten into a smelly and bloody paste, but more beetles drilled into the orcs' eyes, ears, noses, and some torn wounds.
Amid the orc warriors' shrill and painful howling and roaring, the airtight black swarm of insects actually devoured them alive!
Although such scenes have been seen many times, everyone still finds it difficult to fully adapt.
Killing is the nature of wizards, and everyone does not reject it. But making the killing battlefield so bloody and cruel is not something that all wizards can accept. Especially the goblin Tigule, who felt a stomachache and frowned.
If it hadn't been forcing himself to endure it, I'm afraid it would have vomited!
