Chapter 437 [Tarsal bone ice, cold air payment] and the last bottleneck under natural disasters

"The Broken Dragon... should be right here."

At the entrance of a certain volcanic cave, Guta looked at the green slime mold on the wall and whispered with his chin in his hands.

Nearly three days had passed since the group of them returned to East Doruma. Taking advantage of the natural disaster trial, there was still a week to go, Guta proposed to perform another mission together to see Nia's growth during this time.

And the target of this mission is Broken Dragon, who is known as the "Broken Boxing King".

This is a strange beast dragon monster with a mallet-shaped unicorn and a columnar forelimb like a boxing glove. It only moves in volcanic areas.

And when it comes to monsters like broken dragons, there is one thing that has to be mentioned.

That was living with them, some kind of exploding slime mold with a green appearance.

They also only grow in a volcanic environment, and once in contact with the body fluid or saliva of the Broken Dragon, they will quickly turn from green to yellow due to an oxidation reaction, and finally produce a violent explosion when they turn dark red.

In short, most of the lethality of the broken dragon comes from this symbiotic explosive slime mold, but conversely, most of the time, because of its remarkable external characteristics, this slime mold will make the broken dragon The traces of it were completely exposed to the hunter's eyes.

"Do you need to make some preparations? Especially Snowball and Schiff, it shouldn't be too uncomfortable for them to enter the volcanic cave, right?"

Nia touched Xueqiu's head, stood on tiptoe, and rubbed the giant wolf Schiff who was already as tall as the ancient tower.

In the past two months, it may be that the developmental period has really arrived. Schiff's body is growing rapidly at a terrifying speed that changes every day.

Of course, with its growth, the daily food is also astronomical, but for the blue star team with ample wallets, it is not an unbearable expense.

Guta even had a leisurely heart, and fed Shifu the dragon jade that originated from the transformed ice shark.

The main reason is that the big guys in the team can't use it, and I don't know where to hear the gossip, saying that feeding the mounts with high-concentration energy crystals or dragon jade, precious jade and the like will make them get Some special abilities even produce benign mutations.

Of course, the result of the feeding is not yet known, only that Schiff's growth rate is indeed faster than before.

Today, Schiff has completely grown to a height of [-] meters, which is more than enough even as a mount for the ancient tower.

To get back to the point, for Snowball and Schiff, who had thick feathers and thick hair, the volcanic environment was still relatively harmful to them, which is why Nia said this.

“咕嘎~咕嘎！”

Snowball flattered Nia's arm with his head, signaling that he was okay.

After seeing its master for so long, it didn't want to miss any chance to fight side by side with Nia.

As for Schiff on the side, its reaction was more direct.

The extremely lazy giant wolf actually moved several meters away from the cave, shook his head first, and then looked at the ancient pagoda with a flattering expression.

Staring blankly at Schiff's ancient tower, without saying a word, he just stretched out his right hand calmly.

The next moment, two black spheres instantly flew out of his palm, submerging into Snowball and Schiff's hair.

Almost at the same time, a thick layer of ice spread out from the bodies of the two little guys... no, the big guys, forming a layer of ice armor with a simple shape in an instant.

【Eight Disasters · Tarsus Ice · Cold Payment】

This is the reverse application of [Eight Calamities · Tarsus Ice].

Nearly three months have passed since the ability of [Tarsus Ice] was developed.

During this period of time, it was rare for Guta to hold back his temper and sort out his existing ability system. During this period, he also improved many skills and moves, and developed a variety of application modes.

For him now, the application of abilities is only at the fingertips, whether it is offensive or defensive, or other intentions, he can use them at his fingertips without any shackles.

Just like at this moment, the [Eight Calamities Tarsus Ice], which was originally used only for offense and negative state blessings, changed its thinking and became a cooling protection that can protect Snowball and Schiff from the volcanic environment.

"Guga~"

Unlike Schiff, who had a face full of despair, Snowball gratefully touched the palm of the ancient tower with his head.

"Hey, there is also a gap between pets and pets."

Guta sighed first, then kicked Schiff's ass, and cursed angrily:

"Idiot, go in and find the way."

"Wow..."

Schiff whimpered, lowered his head helplessly, then put his tail between his hind legs, and walked toward the hot cave with his head poking his head.

……

The breadth and depth of the cave are much larger than the ancient pagoda expected at the beginning.

With the gradual deepening, the color of the surrounding rock walls also changed from black gray at the beginning to dazzling red, and the temperature reached more than 40 degrees in the blink of an eye.

"That...how about you give me one too?"

Weiwei, who had been sweating profusely for a long time, glanced at the ice armor on Xueqiu and Shiv who looked cool at first glance, and said with some hesitation.

Qiao Qiao, who was already drenched by the side, seemed to be fished out of the water, also hurriedly responded a few times.

Although the hair of Ailu cats is not long, it is extremely dense. Although it feels good to the touch, it also shows that they are not a heat-resistant race.

Rolling his eyes, Guta looked at his teammates.

"If anyone else wants it, just say it."

Before the words fell, everyone raised their hands in unison.

"Hey, I thought how long you guys can be brave, but that's all~"

With a smirk, Guta stretched out his fingers and tapped his teammates a few times in sequence.

The ice cores of [Tarsus Ice] were planted one by one, and then surrounded their respective bodies, turning into ice armor of perfect size.

"Guta, your control over abilities is getting stronger and stronger." Mie Jue admired honestly.

"Well, that's it... I just want to get over that hurdle quickly, and everything else is secondary." Guta muttered in a low voice, without much complacency.

During this period of time, especially in the past month, he has become increasingly aware of the indistinct bottleneck.

For Guta, who was used to getting stronger, this feeling was really uncomfortable, so that he could only temporarily focus on improving his moves.

But how to say...

If there is a way but no skills, the skills can still be sought, but if there is a skill but no way, it stops at the skills.

It is roughly the current situation of the ancient tower.

Regardless of whether he is willing or not, his physical fitness and overall strength have indeed reached his own limit.

Even if the combat power can be further improved by means of the improvement of moves, it is already very limited, and there is no way to make leaps and bounds every time as in the past.

Under such circumstances, even if he is designated as the strongest combat force under natural disasters, he still will not feel the slightest joy.

Under natural disasters, everything is common.

He just wants to be detached!
