Chapter 159

There is no doubt that Zhang Cheng's words completely overturned his image of a friend he had not easily established in the eyes of Celine baratheon, and the relationship between the two quickly fell to the freezing point.

Even after dinner, the little guy never said a word to him again. He hid in the corner alone, sulking, and secretly wiped his tears.

In fact, the girl doesn't know. In fact, ruthlessness is the true face of Zhang Cheng. What she saw before is just an illusion, a camouflage that makes herself look harmless in daily life, just like a chameleon changing its body color to integrate into the environment.

However, Zhang Cheng did not pay attention to an emotional child. To be exact, he had no energy to take care of anything.

Because not long after just returning to the tent, the magic addiction that had not been committed for a long time suddenly began to attack, and the whole person was enduring unimaginable pain.

In order not to let his men outside notice the abnormality, he had to bite a piece of wood, force himself not to make a sound, and curl up tightly to resist this unspeakable torture. He fell into a semi coma state of vague consciousness several times, and didn't sleep slowly until it was getting brighter.

After knowing how long, maybe a few minutes, maybe a few hours, he was awakened by a noisy cry outside the tent.

Dragging his exhausted body, Zhang Cheng struggled to get up, simply washed his face with the water in the barrel, lifted the opening curtain and came out.

I saw that the originally calm sea suddenly began to boil, just like boiling water. It not only emits a large amount of white water vapor, but also presents a strange black gray.

The sailors and soldiers were frightened and gathered together to discuss what this incredible phenomenon meant.

Others knelt on the ground and prayed piously to the seven gods, eager to get the protection of the gods.

"Eric! What the hell is going on?" Zhang Cheng asked the team leader who didn't look very good.

"My God! My Lord, you finally woke up! Just five minutes ago, the whole island suddenly began to vibrate violently, and then the sea water was just as you see now. I think it may be a precursor of volcanic eruption. We'd better leave quickly, otherwise..."

At the end, Eric couldn't help shaking. Even a bold man like him didn't want to encounter one of the most terrible disasters in nature - volcanic eruption.

You should know that the location of the ruins itself is a large active volcanic group. Long ago, the varelians forcibly sealed all the volcanoes with powerful magic, and then created a brilliant civilization.

"Volcanic eruption?" Zhang Cheng subconsciously frowned.

As half a natural science lover, he knows more or less about volcanoes, but there is no obvious performance from the reaction of surrounding seabirds and the smell in the air. At least he can't smell the smell of sulfur for the time being.

Normally, no matter what volcano it is, it will emit a lot of sulfur-containing gas before eruption, and animals and birds will become restless, so it is easy to detect it.

But now, birds and small animals still do what they should do. There is no panic at all. The smell in the air is also very normal. It doesn't look like volcanic eruption.

After meditating for a few seconds, Zhang Cheng immediately shook his head: "no, no, this is not the result of volcanic eruption, but the result of some other force. Organize a team immediately, and I'll go down and have a look."

"Go down? You mean..." Eric's eyes showed excitement and expectation.

He had long known that a secret passage had been found in the ruins of the tower, but he didn't get permission to enter.

"Yes! Let's go in and see what's hidden under the tower. Remember, it doesn't need too many to choose the bravest and most experienced players. About 30 are enough." after that, Zhang Cheng turned back to the tent and stuffed all the things that might be useful into his backpack.

In about half an hour, an expedition composed of 25 heavily armed soldiers, five sailors with a lot of exploration experience, and 37 people from Eric and Zhang Cheng left the camp and headed deep underground.

When passing the room with Valeria ingots, no one realized how valuable the strips covered with heavy dust were.

After about 15 minutes of walking along the narrow and muggy tunnel, almost everyone in the team was sweating and drinking water to ensure that they would not dehydrate and die.

Glancing at the multifunctional watch thermometer on his wrist, Zhang Cheng found that the ambient temperature had reached 45 degrees Celsius. Under such ambient temperature, most people can't last long.

Just when he began to consider whether to return the same way, the soldier in front suddenly stopped, fell on his knees with a plop, and trembled all over, as if he saw a terrible scene.

Eric was acutely aware of this, immediately rushed up to cover the other party's mouth, dragged it to the back, and then popped half his head to look around the corner.

moment

His pupils suddenly enlarged and contracted, followed by retracting his head, his back close to the wall, biting his lower lip, panting violently, and his face was full of panic.

"What's the matter? What's inside?" Zhang Cheng quickly asked in a low voice.

Eric didn't answer. He just shook his head desperately and motioned not to go over.

However, he obviously underestimated Zhang Cheng's courage and incomparable desire for strength.

Without any hesitation, Zhang Cheng pushed the other side away and walked through the corner alone.

Before he took two or three steps, he saw a fiery red color in front of him, specifically a large hot magma pool.

As like as two peas in the center of the magma pool, a stone meter, five meters high and three meters wide, is written in various high erellian words and unknown symbols.

Needless to ask, what is recorded above is the powerful blood fire magic of the Valerians.

Of course, if it's just stone tablets and magma, it's not enough to scare guys like Eric.

What really frightened him was a red dragon lying in the magma!

A tail is likely to exceed 250 meters! Like a wild beast on a hill!

The most important thing is that it didn't die. On the contrary, it kept snoring slightly, and golden sparks came out of its nostrils from time to time.

In addition, in front of its mouth, there is a lens emitting strong energy radiation, which is the meteorite recorded in the book that caused the doomsday catastrophe
