Chapter 245 Galaxy Beast
Boom! A large mass of magma and thick smoke rose from the volcano. Lin Zhen was watching from the side. He flapped his lightning wings gently, his body was suspended in the air, and his mental shield was activated.
He had observed four or five eruptions and found that the volcano erupted violently about once every two hours and then gradually weakened.
After calculating the time and feeling that the power of the volcano was gradually weakening, Lin Zhen flapped his Thunder Wings and rushed down from the thick smoke in the crater.
He didn't dare to accelerate the Thunder Wings too much, as it would be disastrous if they suddenly rushed into the magma.
Entering the crater, an incredibly hot heat wave hit me in the face, and the consumption of my mental energy began to increase suddenly.
However, with Lin Zhen's current mental strength at the peak of the late Dark Gold stage, he can still hold on for five minutes in this heat wave.
The fiery red magma below was surging and rolling, like a bottomless abyss that swallowed everything.
Looking around, the surroundings seemed to be in the shape of a barrel, and there seemed to be nothing unusual. Could it be that the Galaxy Beast was lurking deep in the magma? Then Lin Zhen really had no way to turn it out.
No! It's definitely not at the bottom of the magma. It should be hidden somewhere.
Flapping his lightning wings, Lin Zhen began to descend in the crater, gradually approaching the magma area.
The further down they went, the more unbearable the temperature became. Lin Zhen's mental strength was further depleted. If it weren't for this protective shield, he would have definitely burned up.
It is about 1,500 meters from the crater to the magma. After descending to a depth of about 1,000 meters, Lin Zhen stopped when he was less than 500 meters away from the rolling magma below.
Near the wall of the volcano, Lin Zhen began to fly quickly along the wall.
Flying at a high speed of one thousand meters per second, Lin Zhen descended fifty meters in a spin without discovering anything.
Taking a deep breath, I descended another thirty meters, but still found nothing.
As the scorching heat wave hit, Lin Zhen felt that his mental strength was a bit strained to cope with it. He flapped his Lightning Wings and flew into the air, flying out of the Burning Mountain.
He practiced outside for a week to restore his mental strength. When the volcano erupted again, Lin Zhen dived into the volcano again and continued to explore.
The previous exploration reached a depth of 1,080 meters. This time, Lin Zhen descended to 1,150 meters. After finding nothing, he took off again.
The third time, Lin Zhen explored to 1,220 meters.
The fourth time, 1,300 meters.
The fifth time, 1,350 meters.
When he explored to 1,400 meters for the sixth time, Lin Zhen finally made some discovery.
About fifty meters further down, almost just above the lava, there is a cave slanting downward, as if it had been crashed into by a meteorite.
Lin Zhen's eyes lit up. If this cave was really created by a meteorite, then the Galaxy Beast must be inside.
However, Lin Zhen's mental strength was still insufficient. After he took off into the air again, he adjusted his breathing and made preparations.
He took out the liquid metal, covered it with the cold air from the Dark Star, replacing the mental shield, and then dived into the volcano again.
With this layer of protection, Lin Zhen finally sneaked into the cave close to the magma this time.
The cave is not very deep. After walking down about twenty meters, you will almost reach the end.
But what is a bit strange is that there is no magma flowing into this cave. You know, when a volcano erupts, magma surges up and should flow back in. I don't know why.
Lin Zhen held the Broken Jade Spear in his hand and was fully alert. In case the Galaxy Beast turned out to be ferocious, he would teleport away immediately.
But when he actually saw the thing in the hole, he was completely stunned.
"What's this.?"
In the cave, a creature not much bigger than a pug was lying there dying, and it seemed to be unaware of Lin Zhen's arrival.
His body was covered with a layer of golden hair with a slight red tint. Around his neck he had a lion-like mane which was slightly wet.
Small paws, big mouth, big eyes and what seems to be double eyelids.
"Lion dog?" Lin Zhen scratched his head. Is this thing a galaxy beast? Could it be some mutant creature from a volcano?
Looking around, Lin Zhen found several broken eggshells on the ground. The eggshells were wrapped in some stones, proving that this thing did come out of the eggshell inside the meteorite.
Eggshell? This thing was born from eggs? Isn't it a dog? How long has it been born?
Just as Lin Zhen was thinking, the lion dog opened his eyes.
After seeing Lin Zhen, the dog opened its eyes and bared its teeth!
Although the two rows of small milk teeth are still small, a powerful aura comes to your face!
The power of the star realm! Galaxy beast! Lin Zhen flashed out of the cave in an instant and flew straight into the sky.
After flying a few hundred meters, Lin Zhen looked back, but did not see the dog chasing him.
Lin Zhen originally wanted to escape, but he was unwilling to do so. This little guy seemed particularly weak. He must have been born not long ago and had never eaten. He couldn't be that strong.
Lin Zhen was still determined to steal, so he turned back and bravely entered the cave again.
After the puppy saw Lin Zhen, it opened its eyes and snorted twice. Although Lin Zhen was a little frightened, he did not feel that the little thing had any malicious intentions and slowly approached.
Perhaps it was because of its cute appearance that people did not feel too wary. Lin Zhen walked over and squatted three meters away from it, ready to teleport at any time.
This time he observed carefully and found that it didn't take very long for the eggshell to break, and the eggshell was so red that it seemed to be burning. This was because it had absorbed too much lava power.
Lin Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly and began to analyze according to his knowledge.
"This galaxy beast has landed here for a thousand years, but because there are no adult beasts to hatch, it can only rely on itself to hatch. Over the past thousand years, only the volcanic lava has continuously nourished its eggs. It was born from fire."
"According to the legend about the Galaxy Beast, the first meal of this creature after it is born is to suck the blood of its mother. That is called inheritance, which can not only help it cultivate its ferocity in the future, but also inherit the power of its elders. But it should not have eaten yet, and it is seriously lacking in food and nutrition. Although there are some creatures that rely on fire in this volcano, their number is too small, so it is slow to advance. In the previous life, it appeared after the alien civilization ruled the earth."
"It should only be in its larval stage now. If no one takes care of it, it can survive, but its growth will definitely be very slow."
"I wonder if I can try to feed it."
As soon as Lin Zhen had this idea, he couldn't help but grow wildly. Even though he had lived for so many years in his previous life, he had never even thought about owning a galaxy beast.
When that thing grows up, it can become a giant that can easily destroy an entire civilization. People wouldn't even have time to hide from it, let alone raise it.
Lin Zhen tried to get closer again, and the Galaxy Beast opened its eyes again, showing its teeth, as if it was very unhappy with Lin Zhen.
"That's not right? This thing has just been born, it shouldn't be aggressive yet, why would it be disgusted with me?"
After trying several times, Lin Zhen found the crux of the problem.
The cold air on the liquid metal! This cold air is used by Lin Zhen to resist the heat wave, but this Galaxy Beast was born by absorbing lava, and the flame and cold air counteract each other, so naturally it will be unhappy with Lin Zhen.
He decisively removed the liquid metal and replaced it with a mental shield. This time, the Galaxy Beast really closed its eyes and rolled slightly while lying there.
Looking at the little thing's shriveled belly, Lin Zhen knew that it probably hadn't eaten yet. After hesitating for a moment, he took out a piece of crab meat from the ring and put it to the mouth of this puppy-like thing.
"The Galaxy Beast has a high IQ, almost as high as that of a human child. It should be able to sense good and evil, and it won't attack me."
Lin Zhen muttered to himself and got closer.
When Lin Zhen put the crab meat to the puppy's mouth, the little thing suddenly opened its mouth and bit Lin Zhen's finger! There was a slight sting and the finger bled, but Lin Zhen did not pull back his finger, but let the puppy suck it.
"First blood! As expected, the Galaxy Beast feeds on blood for its first meal, just as the legend says. But will my blood work?"
Warriors have vigorous Qi and blood. Lin Zhen is now a high-level war god. The vitality concentration of his blood is a hundred times higher than that of ordinary people. The puppy should be able to hold on by sucking a little.
Since it has come to this, Lin Zhen simply sat there and waited for the puppy to suck enough blood.
But once he started to suck, he couldn't stop.
The blood kept rushing out, and the lightning power, light power, and a trace of cold air in the body all entered the puppy's body with the blood! The dark star was constantly running, replenishing the energy lost in Lin Zhen's body, and the blood began to flow in large quantities, and waves of dizziness came over him.
"My goodness, this is such a big eater!"
Lin Zhen felt dizzy and wanted to stop but was unwilling to do so. If he stopped now, he might never have the chance to tame the puppy. He could only bite the bullet and persevere.
I don’t know how long it took, but Lin Zhen felt a heat wave coming from the entrance of the cave. Knowing that the volcano was about to erupt again, he raised his hand and the liquid metal turned into a wall, completely sealing the entrance of the cave.
Magma was surging outside, and the temperature in the cave was enough to boil water. Lin Zhen could only use his cold air to resist it. Fortunately, the puppy no longer rejected Lin Zhen's cold air at this time, and held Lin Zhen's fingers with its two paws and sucked them.
Little bits of lightning, light spots, and cold air kept being injected into the puppy's body, and Lin Zhen's consciousness gradually became a little blurred.
He just saw vaguely that occasionally there would be flashes of lightning or faint light floating on the puppy's body.
The little guy ate comfortably. He held Lin Zhen's fingers with his limbs and sucked them. Occasionally, he hummed a few times, and sulfur-smelling smoke with sparks would come out of his nostrils.
Its saliva and spit would also be injected into Lin Zhen's body through Lin Zhen's wounds, making Lin Zhen feel numb and hot in his fingers.
There were countless heat waves rising outside, and Lin Zhen's consciousness gradually became blurred and weak. Finally, his head tilted and he passed out in the cave.
