Chapter 49 Lava Pool
Loya took out the [Snake-Attracting Potion] and threw it into the deepest part of the cave, letting the fragrance of the snake-attracting potion dissipate.
In addition, to avoid attracting terrifying fire serpents of gold rank or higher, Loya specifically reduced the effects of the serpent-attracting medicine, thus eliminating this danger.
Then, he threw down a large bag of [Unlimited Reproduction Potion] next to him.
"Everything is ready. From now on, I don't need to worry about food or filling my stomach."
Loya walked out of the cave breeding farm with a smile.
Hissing sounds emanated from the fire serpents behind him, a strange change occurring. They became restless and eager to attack.
A strong, ambiguous scent filled the air, causing the originally terrifying fire snakes to become entangled and frantically rubbing against each other, appearing strange and bizarre.
The fiery serpents that had been lurking near the cave slowly crawled over, sensing a strange, intoxicating scent emanating from within the cave.
They instinctively wanted to be there in person.
At the same time, the abundant fire element made them feel that this was a good place for them, a place where they could grow better.
Any intelligent being who witnesses this scene would not simply enter and allow Loya to succeed.
But most of the fire serpents here are mindless magical beasts.
They couldn't see through Loya's simple scheme.
...
Loya arrived at a spot a kilometer away from the cave, where he walked around, stopping occasionally and listening intently.
After a while, he suddenly stopped.
"It should be here."
Loya bent down and began to dig.
In just a few seconds, a crater three meters in diameter was formed.
Loya continued, his speed was incredible. The earth was like tofu to him, each claw digging out a large chunk of soil.
The crater grows larger and deeper every second.
In less than a minute, Loya's massive body completely disappeared into the ground.
But he continued digging.
"Click," and after more than half an hour, Loya had reached a depth of more than 30 meters underground.
Here, he encountered a thick, hot layer of rock.
He opened his mouth and took a bite, breaking open a large gash in the rock. Inside, a flowing, dark red liquid was revealed.
This is clearly "magma".
Yes, the unusual climate of the Flame Serpent Canyon is due to its proximity to lava.
Let's get back to the main topic.
Magma gushed out of the breach, slowly flowing into the pit Loya had dug and spreading onto Loya's body.
The temperature is so high that it causes the air to boil, creating a visually distorted effect in the space.
"As expected, I wasn't mistaken."
"There are underground rivers of magma here."
Loya smiled, looking very excited.
He didn't care that the fiery lava was eroding his body. He stretched out his claws and slowly widened the gap, allowing the lava to flow out more and faster.
When he felt it was about time, he finally turned around, climbed upwards, and left the place.
Upon reaching the surface, he looked around and then at the slowly emerging lava.
"It needs a slight modification."
Loya continued digging into the earth, widening the opening of the pit and turning it into a pool covering an area of one hundred square meters.
He also went to the vicinity, picked up some large, hard stones, piled them around the "magma spring," and carved a new inscription on them: "Fire."
This inscription is similar to the previous [Gathering Fire] inscription; both can absorb fire elements. However, [Fire] has slightly more characteristics. It can also directly extract the heat from magma, concentrate it in a small area, and make the heat more gentle, making it easier for fire-attribute extraordinary creatures to absorb.
This time, just like before, it wasn't a single inscription that was carved, but many inscriptions that were combined into an inscription array.
This formation is called the [Fire Formation].
It was prepared specifically for Loya.
After working on it for several hours, Loya is finally finished.
The underground magma also filled the small pool that Loya had dug with his bare hands, forming a fiery red [magma pool].
Loya soaked comfortably in the lava, his [Gluttony] ability at work, absorbing the energy contained in the lava pool with all his might to strengthen his physical body and magic.
"Tsk, this kind of life is perfect for me."
Loya really enjoys this kind of "bathing" that makes him feel comfortable and stronger at the same time.
