Su Xiao’s body stayed close to the cliff, he side-stepped gradually forward.
Looking at the other four people, the four people were staring at the lava lake as if there was something horrible inside.
Although the current position was dangerous, it will not be too dangerous, if they are cautious. So, these four guys may have something that they didn’t tell him about.
Su Xiao was no longer keeping an eye on his feet and began to pay attention to the lava lake below.
Fizz.
An explosion which was as big as a washbasin appeared in the lava lake, and the lavas splattered high.
Fizz, Fizz.
The splashing lava hit on the priest’s leg, a black smoke floated, the barbecue smell spread.
The priest gritted his teeth because of the pain but did make any sound.
Su Xiao frowned tightly, Is there something in the lava lake?
“Mr. priest, are you okay?”
Arata Kirishima looked at the priest with worry, but his voice was small.
The priest’s face changed dramatically, and he stared straight at Arata Kirishima.
“No problem, the hearing of that thing is sensitive.”
The voice of Arata Kirishima just stopped, there were bubbles appeared in the lava lake.
Rumble.
The lava surged as if a giant creature floated up in the lava lake. The other four people except for Su Xiao stopped at the same place and were close to the cliff.
Seeing this scene, Su Xiao’s eyes were cold, these guys had something that they did not tell him. Thinking for a while, he also leaned on the cliff and even slowed down his breath.
Boom.
The lava in the lava lake rose up to the sky and splashed more than ten meters.
The several small pieces of lava splashed on five people’s bodies, Su Xiao immediately closed his eyes and put his face aside.
Fizz.
A few small pieces of lava splashed on him after the lava touched the skin, his flesh was instantly burnt.
Su Xiao did not move and grit on his teeth to endure, because he saw that Arata Kirishima’s entire leg was covered with lava, but he still did not move.
Although the whole leg was covered by lava, Arata Kirishima looked same as usual.
The lava slipped, Arata Kirishima’s legs were wrapped in a layer of kagune which was hurt. This guy wrapped his legs by kagune.
After the lava rose, a dark red object floated in the center of the lava lake, sphere, four or five meters wide, similar to the color of the lava, but this thing was not lava.
Su Xiao carefully observed that the color of the thing was brighter than the lava.
Lava surged, several tentacles emerged in the lava around the spherical object.
This thing was like an octopus, why was the octopus in the lava? This was unscientific.
How did that creature survive in the horrible temperature of the lava, perhaps it was not a creature?
Su Xiao didn’t want to know what it was. He only knew that the strength of the thing was terrible. The priest, Takatsuki Sen, etc. were motionless and looked at the unknown objects in the lava.
Su Xiao stopped breathing, he was in the farthest distance from the thing, if that thing attacks them, the first unlucky person will not be him.
The ‘octopus monster’ was swimming in the lava lake. It seemed that he had no vision. It could only perceive the sound and discover the position of everyone.
In addition to the sound of lava surging around there was silence, it was about ten minutes later, the ‘Octopus monster’ did not notice anything and slowly sank into the lava lake.
“Sigh.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, Takatsuki Sen in the first one of the team, angrily staring at Arata Kirishima.
Arata Kirishima felt very sorry, his wired-ranged burns made Takatuki Sen hard to blame him.
Takatsuki Sen continued to move forward, the other three did the same.
Su Xiao began to move slowly after noticing other four people’s actions. His footsteps were very light, and his eyes stared at the lava lake.
Didn’t know whether the sound that Arata Kirishima just made is intentional or unintentional, perhaps only he knew it.
Ten minutes later, the five people with slow pace finally arrived at the platform on the opposite side.
Su Xiao stepped on the ground walked quickly and tried to stay away from the Lava Lake, not only him but also the others.
About a hundred meters away, Su Xiao checked the burns on his body, all were flesh wounds which were not serious.
“Arata Kirishima, are you not going to give us an explanation?”
Takatsuki Sen’s red eyes emerged.
She even had intentions to kill him, it seemed that she cared about the things that just happened.
It was reasonable, the four were almost killed by Arata Kirishima’s actions.
Su Xiao did not speak, he just stood far away from the crowd, in case he will not be splattered blood on his whole body because of their infighting.
“Miss Takatsuki Sen, I apologize for the incident. I didn’t expect the hearing of the monster to be so acute.”
Arata Kirishima looked guilty, and he seemed to be willing to accept any punishments.
“You…….”
Takatsuki Sen just wanted to speak but was interrupted by Arima Kisho.
“Forget it.”
Arima Kisho’s meaning was obvious, even if Arata Kirishima had another purpose, they could not infight now.
“It is true that mistakes are inevitable. We are a team now, don’t hold a grudge.”
The priest also came to mediate the dispute.
Su Xiao stood in the distance looked at the situation smiled coldly in his mind, a team? These four guys had been here before, no one reminded him not to make any sounds in the way to the lava lake, there was a horrible unknown monster in the lava lake.
This so-called team, after coming here, had collapsed halfway, their minds and actions were not consistent.
This stone platform several hundred meters in diameter should be the destination. The moment when the ‘source’ was found, it will be the time the team disbanded completely.
By then, no one could be believed.
“Since we have arrived here, let’s talk about it. Where is the ‘source’? Let’s destroy it.”
Takatsuki Sen spoke.
The priest and other three people looked at each other and seemed to guess each other’s thoughts.
“I only arrived at the lava lake, I have not been here before.”
“Me too.”
“I have never been here.”
The three men expressed their opinions, and they all said that they had not been there.
“If the situation is like this, then let’s look for it separately.”
During Takatuki Sen’s speaking, she is going aside.
“I disagree.”
Su Xiao spoke. The four people’s sights turned around.
“The efficiency of searching separately will indeed increase. But what can we do if we meet the enemy we can’t fight? How can you be sure that there are no enemies on this stone platform?”
Su Xiao’s opinion was very fair. Actually, he was worried that others will find the ‘source’ and destroyed it. The Hidden task will fail, and 3 points of each attribute will be deducted, then he will be very poor.
“I agree with Byakuya’s opinion.”
Arata Kirishima supported Su Xiao.
“I agree.”
The priest spoke.
“If it is like that, let’s look for it together.”
Takatsuki Sen, the so-called captain, also knew that she could not command anyone present, she still had to obey the majority.
A few people walked deeper into the stone platform. They did not go far and vaguely found that there was a building with an altar in the deepest part of the stone platform.
After entering, Su Xiao found that there was a column in the center of the circular altar. There was a three-meter-high body with armor stood next to it. The armor was surprisingly complete, its fingers and other parts were all there. If there is not empty in its eye, they will believe this is an iron man.
The column was a half meter thick and one meter high. The surface was engraved with a weird fish with a fat head and thin tail, a fist-sized crystal was placed at the top of the column.
The crystal was reddish, and the surface had some cracks. A reddish mist floated out of the cracks of the crystal, slowly rose, and eventually disappeared into the upper stone layer, it was possibly floating to the ground surface.
[Hint: The hunter is within 20 meters of the ‘source’, please get the ‘source’ as soon as possible.]
This reddish crystal was the ‘source’!
Not only did Su Xiao find that red crystals were the ‘source’, but Arima Kisho and others also thought of it.
“We seem to find the ‘source’.”
The priest stared at the source, he did not disguise the greed in his sights.
Boom!
Stone platform suddenly vibrated, the five people immediately became alert. But nothing happened after ten or more seconds.
Next, to the column, everyone neglected the armor’s eyes hole gradually shined red. It was the color which was caused after Rc cell activated.
“Intruder, die!”
The armor talked.
