Chapter 36 - Chapter 36: Volcanic Crater

Inside this waterproof cover, apart from the house, there are only some scattered stones, all of which are ordinary stones without any special features. After carefully examining the stones on the ground and confirming that there were no hints on them, Nia walked into the room.

Pushing open the door, the items inside the room appeared in front of me. The marble floor was as shiny as new, without any dust on its surface. The tables and chairs are neatly arranged, and there is no chaos in the furnishings inside the room, as if its owner had just left not long ago.

I walked around the entire room and only found a few useful pieces of information. The first is that only four sets of bowls and chopsticks were found in the kitchen, and there were only four single beds in the bedroom, indicating that only four people had lived here before. The second piece of information was discovered by Guangling, who communicated with the elements to indicate that this room has a basement and is hidden quite discreetly. A whole piece of marble was used to seal the entrance, making it no different from a regular floor.

A floating technique was used to lift the entire block of marble that sealed the entrance and set it aside, revealing a one meter wide small staircase. This is not a large basement, with an area of only over 300 square meters, which is relatively small compared to the houses above. In this basement, there are only a dozen tables, chairs, and ten shelves. Just by looking at it, this place is not much different from the abandoned laboratory discovered by Nia last time. It is estimated that alchemists' laboratories are all like this. But the only difference is that there are nothing else here except for tables, chairs, and shelves. The laboratory we discovered last time at least provided Nia with a lot of experimental tools, materials, and dozens of scrolls, but this time they are all empty.

However, it wasn't really empty handed either. Just as Nia was preparing to leave the basement along the stairs, a square brick on the wall that Nia was supporting was suddenly pressed down.

Ao, I've touched the mechanism... Light Spirit, help me see what's activated. "Feeling the accidental trigger, Nia immediately stopped all her movements and waited for Light Spirit's report.

Master, look at your feet

After waiting for half a minute, Guangling finally replied with such a brief sentence. Upon hearing the sound, Nia lowered her head and saw that there was nothing there? The stairs are still stairs, they haven't changed color, there hasn't been anything extra, they don't look abnormal at all.

Nia asked Guangling in confusion, "Guangling, are you sure the mechanism is under my feet? Why hasn't there been any response at all

Master, there is a magic array under your feet. After you press the mechanism on the wall, that magic array starts working. However, this work is limited to the energy array. The function array only has a small amount of energy flowing through, and a large amount of energy is blocked by the activated part of the magic pattern

Blocked it? Is there any other triggering condition for this magic circle

I don't know, maybe there are other ways to solve this magic circle. Otherwise, master, could you move it? It seems like you haven't moved since pressing the wall

Be safe, if it's a magic circle that explodes with just one movement, it's not good. I'd better use teleportation

After getting ready, Nia teleported out of the room.

Has it started yet

Master, that magic circle has started, and it seems to start very slowly

That's good, let's leave here so we don't get hurt by this magic circle. "With that, Nia began reciting transformation and restoration magic, preparing to transform back into a dragon and swim out. But before halfway through reciting the spell, white light was already shining around. Subsequently, the brightness in front of me suddenly increased, and after a flash, the underwater waterproof cover and the house inside disappeared. The surrounding seawater instantly filled this gap, pushing all the air inside towards the sea surface.

It's teleportation again... why do teleportation arrays appear every time I come across some strange places... I

Nia's complaints were not over yet when a heat wave rushed over, almost turning Nia into a roasted dragon. Startled, Nia immediately added frost armor, a third level water system single unit defense magic, to herself. Although this magic protection effect is not good, it is still very useful for cooling down, after all, the whole body is covered in ice.

Shaking his head, he looked around and saw that Nia was on a platform with a diameter of nearly 400 meters, and the house was right next to Nia. It seemed that the teleportation just now was sent along with the house.

Outside the platform, waves of heat distorted the air. Walking to the side of the platform and looking down, a large amount of red viscous liquid is constantly emitting bubbles, and a red liquid column will also spray out from the liquid. It is easy to imagine that the liquid below is magma. Looking around the outside of the platform, except for a hole a few hundred meters away, there are almost vertically upward stone walls in other places, and the top exit is nearly one kilometer away from the height where Nia is located.

Curiosity for the unknown overcame fear, and after giving herself flying skills, Nia flew towards the only exposed hole. In order to prevent the magma column from being shot down, Nia had to constantly pay attention to the magma below. Once she found a piece of magma protruding, it meant that the place was about to erupt. Because she knew about the precursor phenomenon of small-scale magma eruption, Nia was not hit by the magma, but her frost armor couldn't bear it anymore. It melted halfway through the flight, and Nia had to give herself a new blessing.

Flying into the cave entrance, Nia saw the passage clearly. In fact, this passage carved on the mountain wall should be quite dark, but it was clearly processed. On both sides, there is a fire type magic crystal embedded in the wall every five meters or so, and these magic crystals, which are the size of little fingers, are already in a state of magic overload, in which they will explode with strong collisions. In this high-temperature environment, fire type magic crystals can absorb temperature and convert it into magic inside the crystals. Therefore, these magic crystals are dangerous goods that can explode if accidentally touched.

In the middle of the journey, the magic crystal used has been changed to earth type magic crystal, because the speed of replenishing magic is basically the same as the speed consumed by glowing, so the middle part is still easy to walk. However, the second half of the passage was quite troublesome, just like the previous half. In the second half, Nia had to waste her magic with a few fireballs by her side. The second half was too cold, and even the magic crystals she used had turned into water-based magic crystals.

With extreme caution, Nia spent nearly an hour walking the nearly one meter wide and three kilometer long diagonal downward passage.

At the end of the passage, there is a huge underground space, and it's very cold
