Chapter 486: Traveling to magma and climbing volcanoes

That’s right, it’s a magma bath! The demons of the South Abyss Alliance are not surprised that there is such a large and solid field in the Lava Kingdom, but Illidan is surprised.

Originally, the environment of the lava kingdom was very harsh, with rivers of magma flowing everywhere; after the Fire Emperor awakened, volcanoes and caves erupted everywhere, and rivers of magma and magma lakes also greatly increased. How could such a flat ground with at least dozens of square kilometers and no lava rivers or even lava caves everywhere exist naturally?

After "seeing" the appearance of those flame elves, Illidan was even more certain that this piece of ground must have been created by the local residents of the Lava Kingdom in order to deceive the Nanyuan Alliance troops! To put it bluntly, this rare piece of flat ground is just a trap.

In fact, the demon kings of the South Abyss Alliance are not without doubts and vigilance, but the flame elves themselves integrated into the underground magma are really not something that ordinary demon kings can find. This flat ground without magma is really rare, so they have to let the troops rest here.

However, when the flame elves stirred up the magma waves in the ground and surged up along the ground cracks and some tunnels that had been opened long ago, the demon kings with keen senses finally noticed it.

"Not good!" Demon King Murphy was the strongest and the first to wake up. In its feeling, the surrounding energy aura suddenly became extremely violent, and a scorching energy was about to move under its feet, as if... like a volcano erupting!

That’s right, it’s a volcanic eruption! Looking at the spectacular scene in the distance, Illidan could only describe it this way.

The demon soldiers who were lying or sitting on the ground to rest, when the demon kings noticed something was wrong and warned them, they all stood up alertly and looked around for possible enemies.

But they never imagined that the danger would come from the solid ground beneath their feet. When most of the demon soldiers noticed that the ground began to shake, it was already too late.

This large flat ground without magma was originally formed by the flame elves and other creatures from the lava kingdom splicing together many large pieces of solidified lava. Therefore, the narrow but deep cracks that reach into the ground are everywhere.

After the fire elves in the underground activated their innate abilities and stirred up the magma, these cracks quickly burst open under the impact of the magma. The consequence of this collapse is that a large amount of magma rushes out of the ground, erupts high due to the pressure, and then spreads around.

At first, facing this sudden magma eruption, the reaction of the demon soldiers was relatively dull. In their previous marches, they had not encountered sudden eruptions in the lava caves they passed. Ten days was enough time to develop experience in dealing with such situations.

But just when the demon soldiers were preparing to quickly evacuate to a place without magma eruption, they discovered that things were not that simple this time. As far as the eye can see, there are magma fountains everywhere on the ground where the Nanyuan Alliance troops are resting!

Speaking of which, this scene is quite spectacular. As long as it is safe, the demon soldiers are also happy to view these magma fountains as landscapes. But if the lava from these magma fountains were to be poured on themselves or ejected directly from their crotches, no demon would feel wonderful.

Floating in the air, more than thirty demon kings and other demons of Yunxiao level and above, with the ability to fly, looked extremely ugly. After this sudden magma eruption, the demon troops of the South Abyss Alliance may have suffered a lot of losses. However, although their expressions were ugly, the movements of these middle- and upper-class demons were not slow.

The demons around the Yunxiao level, except for those with wings, could only stay in the air for a short time. Under the instructions of the demon kings, they flew away from the place that had turned into a magma field, and went to the front to wait.

Other demons with the ability to fly, under the organization and auspices of the demon kings, began to save the demon soldiers who were struggling in the magma.

To be honest, although most demon soldiers are not fire-type, they still have the strength to temporarily resist the invasion of magma. However, if they are immersed in magma for a long time, most demon soldiers below the Yunxiao level will have no choice but to die. After all, the energy that can be exploded for body protection is limited.

Fortunately, the upper-level demons above the Yunxiao level came to rescue in a timely manner. Although the demon kings also tried their best, most of the demon soldiers survived. But the "small portion" of losses was enough to make the Nanyuan Alliance heartache.

When they set out, the South Abyss Alliance had more than 300,000 demon troops. Even after marching for ten days in the lava country, they did not lose much. But in the massive magma eruption just now, more than 50,000 demon soldiers were lost.

These demon soldiers were directly above the magma eruption, or died under the erosion of the magma because they were too weak to persist until the demons on the upper level rescued them.

Looking at the miserable situation of the demons of the South Abyss Alliance, Illidan snickered in the distance. In fact, compared to the lava kingdom, which is relatively far away, if the blood elves are exposed, they will definitely have to face the conquest of the demon kings of the Abyss. It’s just that no one pays attention to the small changes that happened in the abandoned land - especially in After Yu Fei found three demon kings to provide cover.

Therefore, Yu Fei was happy to see the loss of the Demon King's power in Wuyuan Land. Even just now, Illidan actually helped those fire elves, using his identity as a balrog to quietly encourage the eruption of magma, making it more intense.

And this behavior also has some unexpected surprises. After some demons died, they provided Illidan with a lot of experience. However, the experience that these numerous but weak demon soldiers could provide would not cause any change for Illidan, who had already reached level nine.

The demon kings are not fools, and their doubts about the rare flat ground in the lava kingdom have turned into anger at this moment. It's just that the flame elves were too slippery. After stirring up the underground magma wave, they moved silently along the underground magma river. Even if the demon kings kept scanning the surrounding area, they couldn't find anything.

After a fruitless search, the demon kings could only accept their loss. However, this caused some disagreements about the next actions.

To be honest, the demon kings in the Nanyuan Alliance would have obeyed the instructions of the demon king Murphy, but it was just forced by the situation. The so-called leader is actually the leader promoted by these demon kings.

The demon kings in the southern part of the Abyss Land were already afraid of the Flame Demon Emperor, and they hit it off immediately after establishing the South Abyss Alliance at the suggestion of the Demon King Murphy. But in fact, not many veteran demon kings would be convinced by the new demon king Murphy, who was less than a thousand years old.

In the eyes of those veteran demon kings who had faced off against the Fire Demon Emperor, Demon King Murphy was like a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. And what they want to take advantage of is this.

If under the leadership of Demon King Murphy, the calf, he really overthrew the tiger of Flame Demon Emperor, everything would be easy to say. If the Fire Demon Emperor is not weak or even if he is weak, he can lead the Lava Kingdom to defeat the South Abyss Alliance, then Demon King Murphy will be the final scapegoat.

Demon King Murphy actually knows this, but he doesn't care.

Firstly, it is indeed like other demon kings. Although it values ​​​​but not much fear of the Enma Emperor who has never faced him directly; secondly, what it wants is the momentum of ordering dozens of demon kings to win the first place. The name of the Demon King builds momentum.

It's just that this harmonious scene of mutual consent has begun to disappear after the Nanyuan Alliance troops suffered this first major setback.

Some demon kings clamored to go back, saying that the Fire Demon Emperor and the Lava Kingdom were not so easy to invade but to defeat. This sudden magma eruption alone resulted in the loss of one-sixth of the demon soldiers. Most of the demon kings who argued this way were those who suffered great losses in the magma explosion just now.

Most of the remaining demon kings are neutrals and are waiting and watching. Only Demon King Murphy, his men, and several demon kings who supported him insisted on continuing to move forward, looking for the existence of the Fire Demon Emperor and delivering a fatal blow.

Finally, after arguing for a while, the demon kings who still wanted to give up the operation compromised. After all, we have already come this far, and it would be a shame to go back like this. Moreover, Demon King Murphy promised a lot of benefits to appease them, and they continued to move forward.

During the subsequent march, the Nanyuan Alliance troops were more careful, and the demon kings were divided into two groups and alternately scanned the surrounding areas where the troops passed to prevent the previous situation from recurring. But even so, they still couldn't find Illidan hanging behind him and some of the following fire elves.

After another ten days of arduous marching, the unchanging scenery finally changed. In the distance, there was no longer an endless wilderness with a lot of lava flowing, but towering peaks.

The demon kings are refreshed and are heading to the volcano area! According to ancient records, the place where the Fire Emperor first appeared and has always lived was the volcanic area of ​​the Lava Kingdom. Next, as long as you climb over the volcanoes, you should be able to find the goal of this trip.

Along the way, they were unable to engage in a head-on confrontation with the lava kingdom's army. Instead, they were confused by various magma eruptions, making everyone from the demon king down to the ordinary soldiers feel extremely aggrieved. Now that we have waded through the magma and are about to climb over the volcanoes, the real owner should have reacted, right?

But Illidan entered the volcanic area one step ahead of the South Abyss Alliance troops.
