157 Lava Power
In the cave where the sun is gone, it seems that even the days have become blurred.
Gene can't remember what day it was, but he kept staring at the remaining food and water in the "space walnuts", watching them decrease little by little, and now there is only less than half of the amount left, which makes him vaguely understand that the "three months" have passed!
In the past for more than forty days, his teacher, "His Highness Glen", has never appeared again.
I was in the belly of this volcano, shooting alone and boringly every day... I pulled the bow, shot the archery, and activated my skills day after day. From the beginning, my fingertips were worn out by the bowstrings, and later I became calloused, and even my pain seemed to become numb...
The air with the smell of nitrate in the volcanic mountain belly breathes too much, and even the lungs are filled with a burning smell.
Gene felt like he was almost crazy!
Remember at the beginning, Gene's attack was like tickling to the lava troll.
The lava trolls are not the same as the "trolls" that are flooded outside. Although their names are similar, the lava trolls are a naturally generated powerful life. They are bred in magma, and each one has the strength of the truly mutant demon species!
Although there is a "demon" in the name, it is not a monster polluted by dark forces, but a pure fire element life. Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it "fire element stone man"... but his personality is born with brutality and instinctively attacking all nearby lives, so he got such a name.
The most amazing thing is that the lava troll seems to be immune to flame attacks! Even the advanced fire magic flame raven can absorb it, but it becomes stronger!
Glen threw himself, who was just an intern archer, into the depths of a group of lava trolls. Such behavior seemed unreasonable, but in fact, Gene felt that he had guessed the teacher's thoughts from the beginning.
Isn’t you just worried that you will be complacent with the precious Thunderbolt pine wood bow?
Didn’t I just find a group of fire-type immunized enemies to force myself to learn not to rely on enchant bows and to force myself to perfectly master the rare skill vacuum arrow as soon as possible?
But teacher, teacher, do you know that I had done it as early as the 20th day after being trapped here!
That's right, the red-haired boy has perfectly mastered the rare skill Vacuum Arrow at this moment.
The perfect-level green light arrow has a huge power out of thin air. The explosion after hitting is no longer able to blow up small stones the size of a palm as before, but can burst out a large hole more than one meter deep with one arrow! Burning gravel is flying all over the sky with a painful roar. Such a degree of trauma is seriously injured even to the huge lava troll...
Unfortunately, as Gene imagined, the situation that he broke out of the cave in one breath after perfectly mastering the skills did not happen.
His mental power is limited! As a powerful and rare skill, the vacuum arrow consumes a lot of mental power for each arrow...
Even if Gene tried his best, he would shoot at most three vacuum arrows in one breath, and then the remaining mental power would be insufficient for the fourth time... And if these three green light arrows were selected in a good position, they would almost kill a lava troll. Then he would have to rest...
So far, Ji'n, who has only mastered one skill, has no ability to recover, so he can only rely on natural rest to recover. You can imagine how slow it will be.
It will be completely restored once a day.
In other words, Gene will destroy at most two lava trolls in a day!
He counted and found that there were about 100 lava trolls wandering in the cave! This means that even if he mastered the vacuum arrow perfectly, he still had to stay in the cave for nearly two months in boredom! Only by repeating boring actions every day can he grind the lava trolls one by one!
In Gene's view, this period was a waste of life...
[Really... Isn't it just that I want to master the skills perfectly? I did it all, but I still got stuck here... This is too rigid...]
[His Highness Glen, who is famous in the mainland, seems not so smart...]
The red-haired boy was undoubtedly dissatisfied.
He felt that Ge Lan underestimated himself! The teaching method may not be so clever... He doesn't know the principle of being arrogant and impetuous, just tell him, why bother torture himself for three months in this place where no birds do not shit!
Of course, Gene also speculated whether His Highness Glen did not leave, but observed himself in the dark?
If so...
"Teacher!" Gene suddenly stood up and shouted at the empty lava cave: "I have mastered it perfectly, please come out!"
"Come out!..."
"bring it on……"
"Bar……"
In the empty cave, the red-haired boy's hoarse voice, which was in the voice change period, kept echoing.
Unfortunately, no old man in golden green armor jumped out, only the living lava trolls let out a burst of irritable roars.
As they growl.
"Boom..."
The entire cave suddenly trembled, and the large and small stones made of the lava trolls shot to death by Gene were also rolling on the ground.
"What happened?" Gene was shocked, but immediately realized the reason.
It was the magma that began to surge...
"It's the magma tide of Pai Volcano once a month." Gene quickly remembered the old man's original introduction and immediately shrank deeper into the cave.
In fact, this is not the first time he has encountered a magma tide... Once a month means he had encountered it once thirty days ago. That time, Gene was really scared! However, in the deepest part of this cave, there was a small piece of terrain that was too high, which was just enough to avoid the spread of magma.
Although the lava trolls cannot avoid the magma flow, they were originally born from magma, like taking a bath, without any discomfort.
Gene's face turned pale, hiding in the deepest part of the cave, sighing and waiting for the magma tide to fade.
This wait took four or five hours.
However, when the magma tide really faded, Gene suddenly felt something was wrong.
The red-haired boy stared at the lava trolls with his eyes fixed on them, subconsciously counting the number, and soon he jumped up!
“103?”
“Same as the initial number??”
"The dead lava trolls, who had clearly turned into gravel on the ground, were all resurrected again?!"
"No--"
In the belly of the volcano, the red-haired boy's despair was heard.
It took another hour before Gene tried his best to calm down.
He watched as the magma tide faded, and the firepower was everywhere. More than 100 lava trolls walking around had an unconcealable depression on his face. After he perfectly mastered the vacuum arrow, he killed more than 40 people in more than twenty days, which was nearly half. Unexpectedly, a magma tide would directly waste all his previous efforts!
"The magma actually has the function of repairing the lava trolls?...Why didn't you find it last time..."
He tried hard to recall the first magma tide.
Suddenly I realized that I had not mastered the vacuum arrow at that time! I had never even killed a troll, and at most shot a few inconspicuous small stones, so I naturally didn't notice that the magma had the effect of repairing...
Gene quickly thought of something even more terrible.
Logically speaking, there are more than 40 days left before the three-month period. Just work hard! Squeeze some sleep time and kill 2 to 3 lava trolls every day. Maybe you still have time to kill all of them before food and water are exhausted and leave here...
But the problem is that there will be another magma tide in 30 days!
At that time, wouldn't I go back to .asxs.?
One cycle of 30 days means that if you want to leave here, you may have the ability to kill 103 lava trolls within 30 days, which means 3 to 4 every day!
This is almost impossible for me. It has nothing to do with the quality of my skills, but the limitation of my mental power... As an intern archer who has only engraved one star, I don’t have much mental power at all, and I can’t learn the skills of restoring the direction in this ghost place. This is simply an unsolvable problem!
