Chapter 2315 - Meeting an Old Friend (1/2)
The melting point of Planet King Kong’s stone was very high, so the lava itself was incredibly hot.
Han Sen was wearing his Galactic Lobster armor and had his Jadeskin firing on all cylinders. But even so, he still felt like his skin was being singed.
Fortunately, he could withstand the heat. With hesitating, he dove deep into the lava.
The lava wasn’t transparent like water, so his eyes were useless once he was under the surface. Instead, he had to use his Dongxuan Aura to examine his surroundings.
The stream of lava was far vaster than he had expected from the surface. After swimming down for a while, Han Sen still hadn’t located the injured blue metal wolf. He couldn’t see the far reaches of the lava, either. It was like he was lost in the middle of an endless sea.
Han Sen frowned, but after a minute, the Dongxuan Aura detected a creature swimming through the lava nearby.
No, it wasn’t just one. Han Sen quickly realized that there were many xenogeneics swimming through the lava.
He was surrounded by rock dragons that were at least one hundred meters long. They were all playing together in the lava.
Han Sen could feel their presences in frightening detail. They were all King class, at least, and there were many of them. Han Sen sensed at least a dozen.
Fortunately, the rock dragons didn’t seem interested in Han Sen. Perhaps he was too small, and he was thus unable to snare their attention.
A thousand-meter-long rock dragon swam smoothly past Han Sen, and he decided to jump onto that stone body like a little lizard. He latched onto the rock dragon’s skin and let it carry him forward.
In that endless lava sea, finding an injured blue metal wolf no longer seemed like a realistic goal. However, if the rock dragon horde wasn’t hostile, then using a rock dragon to look around seemed like a good idea.
The rock dragon swam through the lava for a while, and eventually it dove deeper into the sea of lava.
The temperature rose around them, and Han Sen felt as if his skin was burning. Fortunately, the scales of the rock dragon were cool. They weren’t changing in accordance with the temperature of the lava, and pressing himself against them made Han Sen feel a whole lot better.
There were many xenogeneics in that lava sea. They were all either fire or rock elementals, but when they encountered the dragon horde, they all moved aside. None of the creatures wanted to start a fight with the dragons.
But still, there seemed to be no sign of the blue metal wolf anywhere. It made Han Sen wonder. “This place isn’t suitable for the blue metal wolf. Why would he come here?”
As Han Sen mulled over the question, he suddenly felt a wave of pressure sweep over him. And then, that burning sensation quickly disappeared.
Han Sen noticed that all the lava was gone. He opened his eyes and what he saw shocked him.
The burning lava was being held aloft by some invisible power. It created a sky of lava, and below the lava sky was a dreamy-looking island. There were pools, mountains, flowers, and trees there. White clouds hung all around it. It looked like a slice of heaven.
A lake lay in the middle of that island, steaming like a giant hot spring. The blue metal wolf was having a bath inside the lake. It looked very tired, as if coming to the island had been a much-needed vacation.
The rock dragons were now flying around the island. They wanted to enter the lake as well, but they appeared to be too afraid. Instead, they kept roaring at the metal wolf.
