The black object in the black mouth is rectangular, it looks simple, but in fact it is an extremely precise steel creation, on the hard shell, there are many complicated magic circuits, and there are clear traces of magic flow on it, it seems to be a precious magic item.

Hei had already noticed that this thing was extremely hard, at least harder than the volcanic rock formed by the cooling and condensation of magma around it, and the huge dragon's eye blinked, and Hei tried to bite it lightly with his teeth, and the sharp dragon teeth tore at it, making a sharp and piercing grinding sound like 'crunch', but it did not destroy it.

"Roaring ......"

After playing with it for a while, but nothing came of it, and the night lost interest in the black iron lump, but even so, it vaguely remembered the task left by its master.

"Don't let any being in or out, you stupid dragon, be quiet!"

Ignoring the second half of the sentence, Black stared at the black iron box in front of him.

Can't you let anything come out of it? But this thing is out - what should I do? 、

Although the huge half-dragon has gained the wisdom of a human because of the evolution of the bloodline, the simple thinking circuit of being a beast is not enough for it to quickly make a correct judgment - after hesitation, Hei suddenly thought of a good way.

Since the fact that it has come out cannot be changed, it is good to let it become non-existent.

Thinking of this, Black simply opened his huge mouth that was enough to bite the mammoth to death, and-

It swallowed the thing.

The black steel creature was mixed with lava and swallowed into its belly, and before that, it chewed hard to completely shatter the rectangular steel box, but it had no noticeable effect.

But it doesn't matter, because even if it's steel, it will be consumed by the dragon's stomach bag, in fact, there are many dragon species that make a living by swallowing steel and chewing iron, not to mention the black that inherits the blood of the black dragon, the stomach bag of the half-dragon is almost bottomless, and only the size of the mouth restricts its eating, as long as it can be put in the mouth, it will eat anything to show you!

With a grunt, a black steel creature about half the size of an ordinary person's body was swallowed into the black belly, and there were blue-blue lightning sparks flashing on it, as if it wanted to stimulate it and make this behemoth spit it out, but unfortunately, it had no effect at all, not even tickling.

Feeling the high concentration of strong acid secreted in his stomach, rapidly corroding the black steel creation, Hei nodded with satisfaction, and then turned over and climbed up the black rock passage made by Joshua, closed his eyes, and began to rest after eating.

And on the other side of the plane.

The top of the huge, towering Sigma volcano was spewing out a steady stream of gray hot soot, staining the entire sky with a cloudy black and yellow, and it was a torrential rain, mud mixed with water, pouring down from the dark clouds, covering everything around it with a layer of viscous mud, accompanied by a deafening thunder, and golden lightning could be seen flashing in the volcanic clouds.

And on the side of the volcano, in a fortified camp, there was a lot of noisy discussion, and many figures walked around in a panic amid the torrential rain, passing news, and they were going in and out of the rooms, but finally, everyone gathered in the largest hall.

"What's going on, the detector is made of the most advanced high-heat and corrosion-resistant material, Danium alloy, how could it suddenly lose contact?!"

A figure who entered the hall later, who seemed to be the leader, roared loudly, because of the sudden rainstorm, he was covered in mud all over his body, and he looked very embarrassed, this person was extremely angry: "Do you know how much gold Kazan it costs the alliance to build this probe, and how many great mages it will take?" I'll just make it clear that it's not worth half to sell all of you! If it weren't for the sudden transition from dormancy to activation of Sigma Volcano this time to explore the cause, I wouldn't have been able to apply for permission to use it! ”

The figure that spoke was humanoid, with a human-like body structure, hands and feet, a head and torso, but unlike a human, the creature had a pair of pointed ears, which in this respect resembled an elf.

Forcefully wiped the mud off his face, and his face could be seen more clearly - this is a creature that looks extremely similar to an elf in the usual sense, but compared to the average appearance of the elves in the sixth percent, his appearance is a little sorry, and his strong body also makes this guy very different from most slender elves, in addition, he also has a pair of purple eyes and silver hair, and his dark skin has dense magical tattoos, which seems to be due to extreme anger, The tattoos were now alive, shimmering with a distinct aura of magic.

"Captain! I'm really sorry, but we don't know what's going on! ”

At the front of the hall, there was a huge crystal light curtain, and a guy who was sitting in front of the light curtain, looking much younger, stood up, he stuttered a little at first, but then returned to normal, and quickly explained: "Lucia and Belia took the detector to the nearby forest to collect soil materials, but after a burst of blue light, the detector disappeared!" ”

“…… Are you stupid for me? A burst of blue light disappeared, and even the most powerful archmage in the alliance couldn't do that! At most, they fiddled with metal, carved a few runes, and manipulated a little power of fire and steel. ”

The power of magic was lost in the [Great Escape] thousands of years ago, and the so-called archmages now are just the losers of the era who survive, but even so, in order to fight against those powerful and weird monsters with terrifying power, they are still the guests of honor in all camps who have mastered the highest technology, and every time they appear, they represent an extremely high appearance fee.

After the roar, the young man saw that his leader's gloomy face was about to turn black, and his hands and feet were trembling with fright, but he didn't know any other information, but at this time, a prompt tone reminded him, and this guy hurriedly controlled the screen and unfolded a video: "Ah! Chief, you see, the probe has already passed back the images it recorded...... Lo and behold, the volcano had not yet shaken, and there was no mud rain, and Belia and the others were taking samples of soil and plants, and the probe was at this location. ”

Rudely pushing the others away, and in front of the screen, the head of the regiment frowned, staring at the image on the light curtain - as the young man said, everything was normal at this time, the detector was constantly moving, surrounded by a verdant forest, it was taking samples from various places and collecting them into its own body.

yes, there's nothing wrong with that, so how did you get lost?

Just as the leader was thinking, a burst of blue light suddenly appeared, and with the exclamation of two people named Belia and Lucia, the surrounding scenery began to change abruptly - the probe at this time seemed to be located in a dark starry sky, and everything around it disappeared, leaving only a dead silence.

"At this time, I switched the detector to defense mode......"

The young man was still explaining, but a strong arm pressed his head to stop his words, and the regimental leader stared at the pitch-black scene with his purple eyes, his face was serious, not knowing what he was thinking, but then, the golden red color filled the entire screen, and the characteristic pulsating sound of the volcano was transmitted through the detector.

"Lava?"

He whispered, his voice sounding puzzled, "Did you enter the inside of the volcano?" But why ......?"

And the other onlookers around who didn't dare to speak all nodded in unison, and they thought the same way.

"The probe was originally used in various extreme environments, instead of our elves to reconnoiter other places, and the lava cannot be destroyed, which is impossible for it to lose contact...... What is it!? ”

The head of the regiment, who was originally puzzled, suddenly shouted, but no one blamed him for the fuss, because the others were more unbearable than him, and suddenly the whole hall was full of panicked exclamations, and it was extremely noisy.

All because of the scene that suddenly appeared on the screen - without the slightest preparation, a terrifying maw that seemed to swallow the entire hall suddenly appeared, and then bit down violently, and in the sharp scream of the detector shell, it was caught, and then thrown onto the solidified volcanic rock on the side, and a huge golden vertical pupil dragon eye appeared in front of everyone.

The terrifying coercion ignored time, space and distance, and passed from the other end of the probe, and everyone was shocked and unable to move in an instant, and this terrifying dragon's eye disappeared after staring for a while.

But before everyone could breathe, the giant mouth reappeared.

This time, there was no follow-up, and with the constant agitation of the detector in the dark, a violent corrosive sound was heard...... Then everything fell into complete silence.

There was an eerie silence in the hall, and everyone was looking at the screen, their eyes wide open and their faces strange.

Anyone could tell that the probe had already entered the stomach of some creature at this time, and had been digested.

"What the hell is that...... What kind of creature is it? ”

Taking a deep breath, the head of the regiment's face was extremely ugly, he clenched his fists, and his brows were bruised, but even so, he was extremely puzzled: "It can actually digest the fifth-generation detector cast by Danium alloy...... Could it be said? ”

And the others couldn't help but start talking about it.

"What kind of monster was that?! That mouth is easy enough to swallow an adult! ”

"Besides, to name a few, the half-human-tall detector is like candy to it! And its teeth can actually be hard with Danium alloy, and it has not been broken, which is completely absent in existing materials! ”

"Oh my God...... Extrapolating from the size of his mouth, this guy is at least eight meters tall and his body is no less than fifteen meters, this is a real behemoth, not inferior to those [monsters] from the sky, or even larger! ”

A few keen-eyed people noticed something even more incredible: "Wait, you guys think about it - the sight from the probe just now proves that it seems to be all around with lava, right?!" ”

"Right...... That's right! So this monster actually emerged from lava? How is it possible, how can any living creature live in lava?! ”

The discovery shocked everyone and even caused a brief silence in the entire hall, but then more noisy discussions filled the camp.

Everyone was analyzing the monster from before, completely forgetting that they were now on the side of an active volcano, and that they had forgotten their duty.

And the head of the regiment, who was still distressed before, now didn't have the heart to blame his members, and now, an incredible thought emerged in his heart, this tall man ignored the discussion of the people around him, and said to himself in surprise: "Could it be that it...... Is that what animates Sigma Volcano? ”

As soon as the words were uttered, the audience fell silent, and after being reminded, an even greater fear welled up in everyone's hearts, which was the fear and judgment that were overshadowed by the excitement of seeing a creature that had never been seen before.

If it's really the cause of the activation of the Sigma volcano, then - this monster is probably near them!
