414 Prepare for the Meeting (1/2)
At the foot of the Black Volcano, a long trail of creatures was getting ready to go up the mountain.
The Sludge Monster tour guide was at the front, explaining the tourist spot.
”This is the entrance to the Black Volcano tourist spot. It requires an entrance ticket during the dormant period, but as it's the most dangerous period, for the next two months, a ticket isn't required. We can enter at any time.”
The Sludge Monster tour guide explained everything as he led the whole tour group forward. After 100 meters, he explained the composition of the nearby soil and rocks.
”Wait a moment. Is there a place that is dangerous and good for hiding?” Sherlock asked the Sludge Monster.
”If there's such a place, then it's inside the Black Volcano! The inside of the Black Volcano has a network of caves. Even during the dormant stage, it's still a dangerous place. It's even worse during the active stage.”
The Sludge Monster tour guide was surprised, and he said, ”So you're going to kill yourselves en masse? Ah, I mean, finding the true meaning of life.”
”Yes, you're close.”
Sherlock nodded, not bothering to rebuke. The gamers were in Plot Animation Mode.
”In that case, let me explain in detail…”
The Sludge Monster tour guide cleared his throat and said, ”The most special part of the Black Volcano!”
…
The Black Volcano wasn't only an important tourist attraction, but it also solved the overpopulation problem of the Northern Underworld.
The famous spots were the Black Volcano lava caves.
The name itself suggested that it was a dangerous place. According to the tour guide, if anyone wanted to hide something, that was the best place.
As the volcano was in the active stage, besides suicidal tourists, no creatures would want to venture inside. The Sludge Monster tour guide was unwilling to enter.
After the Sludge Monster tour guide gave Sherlock a rough map and wished them luck, he dragged his sticky body and left.
The gamers started on their new exploratory tour.

When the gamers received the mission, the exploratory tour of the Black Volcano commenced.
Outside the Black Volcano, besides the occasional flow of the lava, there was the danger of losing one's footing.
It was different in the lava caves.
”Gosh! Finally, there are Elemental Monsters!”
NotWearingPants looked excitedly at a walking fireball with legs.
The lava caves were filled with these strange monsters.
The information on these monsters was updated on the official website.
