Platinum Throne

If there is no one leading the underground city of Turin, no one can imagine that the scenery here is like this.

After bypassing several huge cavities, the burning sensation in the air became stronger and stronger.Although the robe was clean and fireproof and waterproof, Caroline's forehead was still covered with sweat.She turned to look at Norma, who was calm and even narrowed her eyes with a little comfort.

It's really annoying to compare people to people, let alone people from the abyss?

Caroline shook her head, and the dwarf who was leading the way wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "We will be approaching the crater on the next road."

After pushing open three thick brass doors, the temperature had reached a new height, and Caroline saw smoke coming from the beards of the leading dwarves.Seeing Caroline's surprised eyes, the dwarf shook his head, indicating that he was fine: "Our beards can withstand thousands of degrees of heat!"

"This is... really amazing..." The corners of Caroline's mouth twitched, feeling that she had gained some strange and useless knowledge.

The next road needs to be changed to a salamander to continue on.The semi-cooled ground is paved with obsidian floors to prevent high temperatures, but traces of molten magma can still be seen on both sides of the road, lava flowing at the drainage ditch, and lava gathered in countless ditches flowing deeper. Finally fell into a huge, scorching, steaming and bubbling sea of ​​lava.

"This is really a rare sight." Caroline whispered, her voice echoed in this empty, vast space with a dull echo.

"It is said that this is the place most like the abyss." The dwarf wiped his sweat, and he drove the salamander under him.The salamander has a violent personality, and the skin on its body is crystal clear and fiery red, like pieces of beautiful rubies.The salamander shook his head impatiently, almost throwing the dwarf off the ground.The dwarf clenched his legs and controlled the restless animal, "I can't imagine what those things in the abyss look like. Let me stay for three days, and I will probably go crazy."

Caroline looked at Norma silently.Norma patted the salamander's head lightly.The salamander followed the dwarf docilely. Norma looked around, and the restless fire element almost materialized.

"What are we going to do?"

"Pacify the fire element, explore the depths of the cave, and let our mining ground and hearthstone extend further." The dwarf replied, he looked up and pointed forward, "Look, that is the farthest we have ever been able to reach." place."

The path of obsidian growing forward has become narrower and narrower, and finally it is broken. Only thick black iron chains are suspended between lava and lava, and relatively cool positions are carefully opened up.

From a distance, you can see a relatively stable piece of land, with anvils, hammers, mine carts and ore scattered everywhere.It's just that there are no dwarves inside, but all elemental creatures with condensed fire elements walking around.

"Spirit whip can impact elemental creatures, and elemental exile can exile elemental creatures." Caroline said.

The dwarf smiled wryly: "If only it were that simple, the problem is that these elemental creatures are always appearing in a steady stream...we don't even know where they come from...so we hope you can go deeper, find the source, and solve the source .”

"The source..." Caroline chewed on the word.She seemed to notice something from it and looked towards Norma.

Norma got off the salamander calmly. She looked around and moved her fingers lightly. The fire element in the air moved towards Norma as if summoned by something.

Except for those fire element creatures wandering around in the mine.They looked at Norma, motionless, as if they were watching their group.

"They already have rudimentary intelligence, and I suspect that there are their leaders in it."

"Commander level! May the hammer and the flame bless you!" The dwarf immediately drove the salamander away, "I'll wait for you here. If you need anything, just send me a message, and we'll be ready."

Norma nodded: "The map inside."

"This..." The dwarf suddenly showed an ugly smile, "It's very big inside, and we haven't finished exploring it, only that..."

Norma was silent: "..." After a while, she nodded and called Caroline: "Let's go."

Caroline was already a little dizzy from the heat, but she persisted in grabbing Norma's hand.

"Hey, bring this!" The dwarf threw two masks at Caroline, "It's not suitable for the race of the earth if you go deep into it, and there are a lot of toxins in the air, so bring it on!"

Norma's original expression of dissatisfaction finally eased, she motioned for Caroline to put it on, and when Caroline gestured to her, she waved her hand and walked forward gracefully.

Seeing this, Caroline sighed. She was about to go forward, but she thought of something, and turned to ask the dwarf, "Your protective shield is quite strong... If we want to fight inside..."

"Don't worry, it will definitely withstand the toss of a fire dragon!" The dwarf replied, patting his chest.

Caroline always felt that this kind of situation seemed to usher in the word "really fragrant" in the next moment, but she firmly resisted this strange thought, looked at the dwarf again, and then followed Norma forward.

There were only Norma and Caroline, but the surroundings were not quiet at all, and the lava pool under their feet was bubbling.The fire element in the distance made sounds from time to time.The mine in the distance looked not far away, but it walked around several large circles.The iron chain dangled, pulling the land above the lava.When the hot wind came from nowhere, the iron chain was shaken, and the floating island was also shaken.

"This is really..."

Even after seeing the endless pillars of the winged race and the giant tree forest of the elves, the sight in front of them is still shocking.Caroline looked around, there were no lights around, but the flames in the lava were enough to illuminate this wide and grand space.Caroline saw the black sharp stones hanging upside down above her head, hanging down from the dome like stalactite blocks.That is the trace left after the lava erupted.

As they approached, the fire elementals gradually gathered. They were obviously not friendly enough to outsiders, but to restrain the fire elemental... Caroline tried to mobilize the water elemental in the air.Obviously, in such an environment, there are very few water elements that can be called, and even the responses are weak.

After using concussion spells to directly impact and dissipate several waves of fire elements, the road ahead remained unchanged.Elemental creatures, which are rarely seen on weekdays, are here in a steady stream.Caroline even wondered if this place directly led to the sea of ​​elements. If a fire element was formed in front of Caroline's eyes in the next second, she felt that she would not be surprised at all.

"Don't love to fight, move forward." The fire element here is not under the control of Norma. After trying a few times, Norma immediately changed her strategy decisively.

She directly released the coercion that belonged to the demigod, and suppressed the progress of the fire elementals. Taking advantage of this short gap, she grabbed Caroline, flashed several times in succession, and just moved forward in a crushing posture. OK.

The traces of the mine are gradually disappearing ahead.The dwarves hadn't penetrated this deep yet, but the way still seemed to exist.Caroline looked at the road, a little puzzled: "It seems that there are traces of man-made."

"Don't worry about it, just call directly."

Norma replied with a tyrannical voice, so Caroline had no choice but to remain silent, but still observed everything around her vigilantly.Just walking forward like this, after walking for an unknown amount of time, the end of the road finally appeared in front of the two of them, which was a huge lava pool.In the very center of the pool stands a stone tablet, a flame spar.

Caroline, who had seen something similar in the Temple of Wind, immediately realized: "It's the altar, that's where it is."

She looked around.Although the surrounding area has long been corroded by lava, traces of the stone pillars and pedestals that once stood here can still be seen.Caroline suddenly realized: "This is also a temple, is it the Temple of Fire?"

"The Temple of Fire...?"

Caroline's voice echoed around, the place was empty and uninhabited, and even the fire element could not be seen.After waiting quietly for a while, a head made of flames suddenly emerged from the lava in front of it. The burning breath attracted the surrounding fire elements to move towards it. As it moved forward, its body gradually took shape.It doesn't seem to notice that Norma and Caroline just move on.The two avoided the fire element sideways, watching it gradually swell its body and limbs, and after walking out of this huge cave, the fire element was fully formed.

"...that's how the fire elements here... come from?" Caroline asked in surprise.

"...Not enough." Norma replied.

"What's wrong?" Caroline asked.

"The level of the fire element alone is not enough to stop the dwarves from exploring. There must be something else..."

After the words fell, Caroline suddenly saw a pair of eyes opened on the stone wall in front of her, with golden vertical pupils and a long kiss with sharp teeth.Caroline couldn't resist taking a step back, and subconsciously grabbed Norma.Norma held Caroline back, watching the creature on the stone wall finally reveal its full view.Its sharp claws hooked on the sharp rock above, its slender wings gathered on both sides, and its long tail stirred in the lava, rolling up a huge vortex.

There seemed to be something shining at the bottom of the vortex.

But now neither of them noticed it.Because in front of them was a dragon, a real fire dragon.

"After so many years, some food that looks different is finally here." The red dragon snorted, and flames spewed out from its nostrils.The red dragon opened its long snout, revealing its staggered sharp teeth. Its wings spread out as big as the entire cave, driving its huge body, and rushed towards the two with an agility that didn't belong to its weight.
