142 Chapter 142
“Why do you follow me here?”
After entering the highly mutated area, Andrew had planned to act alone, leaving Taylor and Jo on standby.
But unexpectedly, the two women followed him closely.
“I’ll go with Andrew.” Taylor drew out her long sword and looked around vigilantly.
Jo blushed. She still remembered what happened the day before yesterday.
She shouted coldly, “I just keep my promise. Don’t get me wrong.”
Seeing that the two women were determined to follow him, Andrew felt a little relieved.
“Watch out!”
Andrew shouted and used the ice barrier to make an ice house again.
A mushroom that was about to explode was immediately shrouded in the ice house.
As the mushroom exploded and spurted out a large number of spores, a series of explosions burst out in the ice house.
The high temperature caused by the explosion of countless spores made the interior of the ice house formed by the internal ice barrier emit orange light.
It was not until the ice house was completely dissolved by the high temperature that eighty or ninety percent of the spores exploded.
The remaining spore fog was very thin. As long as they quickened their steps and left, they would not be a threat.
But…
There were so many of them!
Andrew said in a bitter tone. After a few steps, Taylor’s shoulder accidentally rubbed against a little mushroom on a nearby tree.
This bean-sized mushroom was explosive.
All of a sudden, the mushroom swelled and cracked, and a small mass of spore mist exploded inside the mushroom.
“Watch out!”
Andrew pulled her into his arms and blocked the powder with the ice barrier..
Fortunately, the mushroom was very small and the number of the spores was not large. Only an ice wall could resist it, so it was safe.
When all the spores exploded, Andrew lowered his head and asked with concern, “Are you okay?”
Lying in Andrew’s arms, Taylor blushed and looked very happy.
“Nothing.” With the help of Andrew, Taylor stood up reluctantly.
Seeing this, Jo frowned as if she was dissatisfied.
They continued to move forward.
The mutation here was getting worse and worse.
It proved that Andrew and his companions were approaching the fire stones and that the surrounding environment was getting more and more dangerous.
Bang.
Stepping on a mushroom, the mushroom suddenly exploded like thunder.
With a loud bang, an earth pillar several meters high exploded on the ground. Andrew was blown up to seven or eight meters high so far.
The ice armor on his legs was immediately smashed into ice debris all over the sky.
After turning a few rounds in the air, Andrew finally stabilized his body and landed on one knee.
But his right leg was still aching.
Andrew’s heart was still fluttering with fear.
‘Fortunately, the frozen dragon boots in the ice armor provide a very strong defensive power. Moreover, I spread magic power all over my body to improve my physical strength.’
‘Otherwise, even with the protection of the ice armor, my right leg would have been lost after the explosion.’
A mushroom that would emit explosive mushrooms and explode itself.
What other surprises were there?
Andrew realized that he couldn’t go on like this.
Instead of paying attention to the consumption of magic power, the most important thing right now was to find a way to advance safely.
Otherwise, he would be seriously injured. Even if the magic power was fully loaded, it would still be less than ten times its attacking power.
Thinking of this, Andrew made up his mind.
Frost.
Andrew slapped the ground with his palm. In an instant, the monstrous cold air spread in a fan-shaped high-speed ahead.
Within a hundred meters, the air was filled with freezing air.
Along the way, whether it was spore mushroom or explosive mushroom, they were directly triggered by the cold air.
What surprised Andrew most was that a new mushroom appeared at the end of the frost.
It was about half a person tall. After being disturbed, the inside part would naturally crack into four pieces, and a fire of twenty meters long would spurt out from each gap.
The inside part also spun rapidly along with the fire, forming a windmill.
Because of the mushroom, most of the cold air that had just been a hundred meters away was instantly ignited.
Until the flames were all out, the mushroom gradually withered.
There were more and more types of mutated.
Besides…
Andrew’s hands were trembling.
‘The air here is full of fire attribute magic power, which severely suppresses my ice magic.’
The ice attribute and fire attribute were two extremes.
Using ice attribute magic in such an environment, before using magic, part of the ice magic power would be neutralized by fire attribute magic power, which reduced its power.
The decline was about 1/3.
Andrew drank a bottle of preliminary magic power therapeutic liquid and continued to move forward with glacier surge and frost.
Although magic power consumed a lot of energy, it was much safer.
Along the way, Andrew couldn’t help but marvel at the authenticity of his decision.
As they moved forward, the number and density of mutated mushrooms increased.
In the end, there were even mushroom missiles that would fly in the air and automatically track like missiles. The explosive power was unusually great.
If he didn’t use this method to lead the way, they would have to die here ten times.
Finally, another hour passed.
Andrew arrived at the core area of the mutated area.
It was an area of about two hundred or three hundred square meters.
There were three layers inside and three layers outside the mushroom, and even their feet couldn’t be inserted.
And all the mushrooms here were mutated mushrooms.
The trees, mushrooms, and the ground were all as red as blood.
Even the air looked red.
The whole terrain was in the shape of a funnel. In the central area, the ground no longer existed, but a piece of golden red magma.
Even if they were a hundred meters away, they could still feel the heatwave on their faces.
“It should be here.”
Andrew could clearly feel the horrifying heat from the central magma pool.
Frost.
Andrew slammed his hand on the ground, trying to trigger all the mushrooms like just now.
However, the freezing air of frost suddenly stopped when it only extended twenty or thirty meters, and few mushrooms were triggered.
Was it less than half of its power?
How thick is fire attribute magic power in the air?
Behind them, Taylor and Jo were sweating heavily and breathing fast.
The ice armor Andrew gave them was slowly melting.
It was not as simple as high temperature.
If the air filled with fire attribute magic power was sucked into their bodies, it would also cause their bodies to burn.
Moreover, the air was very corrosive to ice magic.
Andrew made up his mind and took another bottle of magic power…
Dragon extinguishing magic, icy blood
Andrew didn’t hesitate to use dragon extinguishing magic.
In that case, we’d better blow up this place directly.
The ice blood was a kind of dragon extinguishing magic, not an ice attribute. It wouldn’t be weakened by fire attribute magic power.
And neutralized fire attribute magic power with its cold air!
However, to Andrew’s surprise, as soon as the ice pitons formed in the sky, the magma in the center began to boil violently.
“What…”
Andrew was shocked.
The next second, the whole ground around them shook violently.
Earthquake?
No, no!
Andrew immediately looked at the central magma pool.
It was a fiend!
Boom.
The magma pool suddenly exploded.
A giant golden mushroom as high as thirty or forty meters suddenly rose from the ground.
Andrew was dumbfounded.
The golden mushroom seemed to be made of the red soldering iron, emitting a scorching light.
There was a hole at the top of the inside part, the size of a hot spring pool, and magma would spurt out from it from time to time like a volcano.
Was that magma pool actually the top of it?
Just as everyone was amazed.
The thick hilt of the giant mushroom split into six arms.
In the middle of the hilt, five sense organs appeared.
It was not a mushroom at all.
It was a fiend!
The fire mushroom.
A mid-rank fiend!
Andrew saw clearly that between the mushroom’s eyebrows, there was a pure red gem, shining like multiple stars in the dim environment.
That was… The firestone.
Was it?
Andrew swallowed.
This joke was too much?
A mid-rank fiend on the second floor was even stronger than an ordinary boss-level mid-rank fiend.
Did he have to win if he wanted to get the firestone?
“Icy blood!”
Andrew shouted and turned the icy blood target to the fiend. At the same time, he shouted at Taylor and Jo.
“Ready to fight!”
