Chapter 37 Fusion Crystal Core
With the crystal core, Dachun went through fire and water and finally found the landing point of the boulder.

Sure enough, from a distance, I saw a large ball of flames gnawing around the boulder! Dachun was very pleased. The feeling that everything was as expected was really indescribably satisfying, just like the feeling of being able to accurately estimate scores after an exam when he was a student. It’s been a long time since I had this sense of accomplishment as a top student in controlling my scores.

——System prompt: Warning! You are discovered by the Hidden Boss Magma Lizard.

bring it on! This time you can skip unnecessary problem-solving steps. But the "flying hoe" that should be practiced must still be practiced when the opportunity arises.

After more than 6 minutes of deliberation this time, the combination of advanced throwing techniques and intermediate modules quickly reached level , and the expected boulder appeared again!

This time Dachun was more skillful and landed with a loud noise - no suspense!
——System prompt: Congratulations! You kill the Hidden Boss Lava Lizard and upgrade to level 15, with attack +5, life +5, load +5, stamina +5, and you get the trophy "Lava Fire Crystal Core".

——System prompt: Congratulations! Your marathon skills have been successfully upgraded to Intermediate Level 2, with +1 weight and +1 physical strength.

——System prompt: You have two "Lava Earth Fire Crystal Cores", which can be fused into more advanced forms of crystal cores to greatly improve the effect.

……

success!

This time Dachun's mentality was relatively calm. Upgrading after level 10 is not that easy, but even upgrading to level 5 is not that easy.

Nothing to say, fusion crystal core!
As the two crystal nuclei merge into one, the color and luster are full of high-end.

——Advanced Lava Fire Crystal Core: Advanced artifact-level material, the flame barrier increases the flame resistance by 60%, absorbs 60 points of flame damage and stores it as flame energy, and improves the efficiency of transforming the user into a fire demon physique. The current flame energy is 200 points, and each point maintains the barrier for 1 second.

Very good, the fused attributes are simple and crude and the effect is doubled. Go find the third boss immediately!
Now that it has been determined that there is more than one boss, there is no need to wait for the sulfur boulder to lead the way. Based on the distribution distance of the two bosses, we can probably guess that there may be two more, one on each side in the four directions around the volcano.

Dachun directly hollowed out the sulfur inside the boulder and continued on his journey through fire and water. Then he was delighted to find that the crystal core could actually swim in magma!
Very good, when you have time to collect enough mushrooms, you can swim directly in the magma for an expert!

Dachun came to the general location on the other side of the mountain and threw down the sulfur dug out from two huge rocks. They piled up like a small golden mountain half a man high.

Then wait vigilantly for the Boss to take the bait.

Sure enough, the lava not far away made a splash, and another magma dragon appeared!

Dachun immediately closed the stall, and the angry monitor lizard chased him all the way!
Problem solving continues, practice makes perfect.

But this time, the expected boulder came so slowly, it took a full forty minutes to appear. Fortunately, just practice skills and it will not affect the final result.

——System prompt: Congratulations! You kill the hidden boss Lava Lizard, upgrade to level 18, attack +3... You get the trophy "Lava Land Fire Crystal Core".

——System prompt: Congratulations! Your intermediate marathon skills have been successfully upgraded to level 3...

——System prompt: Congratulations! Upgrade your Advanced Throwing skill to level 10...

——System prompt: Congratulations! Upgrade your mid-level module set to level 10...

……

at last……

Fusion.

——进阶熔岩地火晶核：……火焰结界提升90%的火焰抗性，吸收90点火焰伤害存储为火焰能量……当前火焰能量300点，每1点维持结界1秒。

At this time, Dachun was so tired that he was covered in sweat, and he even had a vague premonition that the volcano was no longer erupting and might really stop!

So why don't you go look for the fourth one? Once the volcano really stops midway through the tour, it's all over. After all, my small account carries the reputation of the large account - 10, which is essentially a famous name. Once I die, the three-in-one crystal core I have worked so hard to save may explode!

But both skills are stuck at level 10. Maybe this is the only way to reach the expert level, and then both achieve the three-day newcomer discount achievement to reward 3 points of wisdom. Not to mention that the three crystal cores are 90% fused. This last one will definitely overflow and produce a qualitative leap. Then it is not an artifact material. It is a complete artifact, and the opportunity cannot be missed...

Anyway, let’s go over there first.

After struggling to observe the volcano all the way, Dachun arrived at the last position behind the mountain.

Dachun was still struggling, staring at the crater and not making up his mind.

At this moment, the volcano erupted violently again, and a huge boulder flew out of the mountain pass!
Do you think the volcano is okay? Dachun gritted his teeth and fought hard!
Then, he anxiously waited.

Compared with the previous two times when he had the winning ticket in hand, Dachun also felt that there was something wrong with the uneasiness in this decisive battle. If the mentality is wrong, will it lead to problems at critical moments?

What’s even more confusing is, if this trial was directed by the supervisor to “depend on my mood,” would her devilish mood really allow me to get four crystal cores so smoothly? After all, NPCs in this game are inherently bad, not to mention demons?
Not long after, a familiar disturbance came from the magma lake not far away - coming!
At this moment, all Dachun's doubts and anxieties broke out - there is only one chance to regret, and once you miss it, there will be no regret medicine!

Fear and reason instantly defeated Dachun's greed, retreat! Run as fast as you want, save the little gold mountain of sulfur for later!

After running like this, there is no turning back, and all kinds of comforting emotions of quitting this trip and making a profit come one after another.

Finally, Dachun ran to the slope of the volcano, found a big rock for cover, and looked back. He saw that the monitor lizard had finished eating the sulfur, but it did not return to the lake immediately. Instead, it sniffed and headed toward the mountain, and The speed is getting faster and faster.

This is obviously the direction where the last monitor lizard was. What is it going to do?
Dachun followed around the mountainside to check, and saw the corpse of a monitor lizard that had been crushed by a giant rock. This monitor lizard clearly rushed over to eat the corpse!
Damn it! After the battle in the sewers, Dachun knew very well that if the Boss ate the Boss' corpse, it would most likely mean that he would mutate and advance. Even if he couldn't mutate by eating this one, there were still two more!
Soon, the giant lizard dragged the body out from under the boulder, tore it up and devoured it, and its body size almost doubled in size visible to the naked eye!
It didn't stop after eating this one, and kept going, making it clear that it would eat two more.

Damn, oh, oh, oh, damn, a super boss is about to appear!
Dachun's mood is somewhat regretful. It can't be said to be regretful, but it's just hard to describe. Looking at its obviously slower pace, Dachun immediately thought of a bat. It just swelled into a ball after eating too much and couldn't fly. If this giant lizard eats three in a row, won't it become a ball and unable to walk?

But the trouble is that it can't walk and can't keep up with its pace, so the flying rock tactic doesn't work!
Finally, Dachun watched helplessly as it circled around, ate the third one, and then slowly entered the magma lake with its huge body and disappeared.

Well, this feeling is melancholy. Just think of it as raising pigs. When they are fattened up, you can slaughter them and get even more awesome crystal cores.

Just as I was feeling melancholy, the rumbling of the volcano stopped.

Was the volcano really dead? Dachun looked up and saw that the lava flow on the top of the mountain had stopped, the smoke had dissipated a lot, and the lava had receded to reveal a crystal-smooth staircase. The mine was indeed on the mountain!

Should I congratulate myself for having foresight, or has the director behind the scenes decided it's boring and stopped playing?

Let’s go up the mountain to the mine.

At this moment, rumbling and rustling sounds were heard from everywhere on the mountain and below. Dachun looked around in shock and saw a large number of small monsters with rock shells emerging from the ground like bamboo shoots after a rain. In particular, the lava river and lava lake at the foot of the mountain were sinking rapidly due to the volcanic break, and various larger rock monsters appeared from the riverbed.

Damn, this scene is so weird!

Dachun immediately ran along the stone steps to the mountainside, and sure enough, he saw a cave supported by stone pillars. Inside was the familiar, shining teleportation array, and he entered!
The scene changed, and Dachun appeared in a large mine pit filled with boiling magma. Under his feet was the same fixed teleportation array as on the first floor. Surrounding him was a group of level 10 "Flame Angels" soaking in the magma pool, staring at him in unison.

This is indeed the starting point of a normal game. These "Flame Angels" really are just soaking in the magma to mine magma ore. Very good, this is also what I want, soaking in the magma, mining while cultivating the Flame Demon Body.

The "angels" stared at Dachun for a while, then turned around and started digging. The magma splashed everywhere, and Dachun was shocked and immediately activated the crystal core!

Holy shit, this isn't even a normal start! How could a newbie possibly handle this?
But the next moment, the angels stopped mining and turned to stare at Dachun again.

Dachun's heart was shocked. This moment was very similar to that moment - they wanted to kill me and steal the treasure?
As expected, a red light exploded in front of Dachun's eyes, and the "Angels of Fire" surrounded him from all sides with a roar!

What the hell!

Dachun looked around the terrain in shock and suddenly realized that this was a closed space. There were no more passages that extended in all directions, and no corners where he could take advantage of the situation. He, a level 18 player, had to fight against hundreds of level 10 players alone!
Is this the trial content?
Fortunately, Dachun has had valuable experience in the sewers and interacting with thousands of players. He is proficient in advanced swimming, fancy swimming, underwater construction, and diving. His physical strength and load-bearing capacity far exceed those of ordinary classmates. He doesn't believe that these monsters can also do these skills. As long as they can't do them, he will just use dimensionality reduction to attack them. He doesn't care about their numbers at all.

Jump into the lava pool and find the deepest spot!

Their swimming proficiency soared again, but so did their energy consumption. If they were wasting their energy like this, it was easy to imagine them diving.

Then Dachun took out a mining pick as a weapon, but the wooden handle of the mining pick quickly carbonized and the iron head fell off - the system prompted: The mining pick was damaged by magma...

The only option is to destroy their hoes, which seem to be made entirely of iron.

Dachun immediately felt a violent disturbance above his head, like a foot, and then dragged it down...

With Dachun carrying a load of more than 300 kg, it was easy for him to drag one down.

The opponent struggled hard at the bottom of the lava pool as if drowning, and then immediately triggered the "Basic Mine Pick Disarmament" that Dachun had never had the chance to practice, grabbed the hoe handle, and successfully took it away.

It’s really all iron!
Now Dachun had no room to hold back and could only hoe it to death with all his might. After reaching level 18, he gained 17 attack points, plus the hoe added 10 more points, so his attack power was already quite high.

The dead demon turned into a ball of soul fire and flew away - the demon would not really die, so there was no need to hold back.

The victory in the first battle also gave Dachun a huge boost in confidence. They were really weak in the water, and he was the boss, the water monster!
