Chapter 677: Salvage Magic Metal

The blazing dark red melt kept flowing, and the gurgling bubbles continued to gush out, bursting on the surface of the melt, making a "puff puff" sound, and the huge heat swayed freely, creating an extremely hot purgatory.

If an ordinary person gets closer to within 5 meters, he will almost feel that what he breathes is not air, but a mass of fire.

This is the lava in the misty sea.

Due to the heat radiation dissipating the dense fog, the visibility near the lava is much higher than other areas in the Misty Sea.

Renault clearly saw the billowing lava emerging from a dark hole 1 kilometer away, winding across the surface of the rock formation, forming a fiery river of lava.

On the surface of the lava river, you can see suspended crystals and unmelted rock fragments, floating, sinking, and rolling.

At the other end, which is the mouth of the lava river, the sound of "chichi" airflow continued to be heard. This is the sound of a large amount of seawater being vaporized by the high temperature of magma.

In the fierce "fight" of water and fire, a huge amount of steam is born every moment and merges into the vast sea of ​​fog, but the lava is still approaching the sea with the most unswerving steps.

They quickly cooled and solidified into dark magmatic rock, expanding the area of ​​the landing site inch by inch.

This is a "growing" lava island.

"So this is lava..." Ottore let out a sigh full of earthy turtle breath.

Behind Renault, there was an expression called "surprise inexplicable" on everyone's faces, and there was an obvious exclamation in their eyes, as if they had never seen lava before.

Well, to be precise, it's not "as if".

This group of alien turtles has indeed never seen lava.

Because in the recorded history, there is neither a volcano nor a record of a volcanic eruption.

For some unknown reason, in this world, apart from Misty Overseas, there is no second place where lava exists.

And in the dictionaries of the turtles, no words such as "volcano" or "lava" can be found.

Because of this, when these people see the lava river, they will look as rare as the unseen buns.

Of course, there may be lava in other places in the alien world, but they are all extremely remote and dangerous locations that ordinary people cannot reach, such as the devil's sea on the other side of the planet.

"Lord Lord." Ezio asked, who was more curious, "Do you think there are any good things in the lava river? For example, high-value metals such as gold and silver..."

Renault squinted at this boy and said silently:

"Silver has a melting point of less than 1,000 degrees, gold is only in the early 1,000 degrees, and the temperature of lava can reach more than 1,400 degrees...In other words, even if there is gold and silver, they have already melted and mixed with magma."

"If you use this method to salvage gold and silver, you won't get a little bit of it for a lifetime!"

Ezio smiled awkwardly, and honestly closed his mouth.

"Lord Lord, is it possible to salvage Mana Metal?" Ottore suddenly inserted a word.

"It's really possible that magic metal can appear in the lava." Renault's eyes lit up, and his wink when he looked at the lava river suddenly changed, as if he was looking at some kind of treasure.

The reason is very simple. Mana metals are extremely metamorphic substances with a melting point of up to tens of thousands of degrees. The temperature of the lava is almost impossible to melt them.

"So." Ottore made another suggestion, "I think we should build a salvage station near the lava river, specifically responsible for fishing things out of the lava."

"Even if the things you get are mostly rubbish, as long as you can successfully get a piece of mana metal or mana alloy, you can make a fortune..."

Renault nodded his head loudly and looked at Ottore with admiration:

"That's a good idea."

He pondered for a moment, and then he thought of a more perfect plan.

"This lava river is only more than 5 meters wide, we can build a dam, no, the lava dam, cut it off."

"Then install a filter device inside the lava dam to intercept the solid matter in the lava... Well, usually only a few personnel on duty are required to sort out the garbage to prevent the filter device from being blocked..."

A salvage station of no more than 10 meters can not consume much material, and the labor cost of the alien world is extremely low. Compared with the high value of magic metal, which can be calculated by "grams", this is almost a costless business.

For example, the "Star Blue Ferroalloy", which has played a huge role in the mechanical manufacturing field of Hai Chao Ling, is the most critical raw material of which is the magic metal-Star Blue Iron.

The price of Star Blue Iron is as high as 6000-7000 Kinnar/kg, and the purchaser must have a certain identity, and ordinary people are not eligible to buy it.

As long as you get a few kilograms of star blue iron every year, you will get everything back.

The best part is that only the Misty Sea in the world has lava, which is an exclusive sale.

Renault felt more and more that, compared to Ezio, who often had a stupid brain, Ottore was obviously much smarter and better at observing words.

Well, this is a talent!

He thought for a while, took out an extraordinary-level magic crystal fragment from his pocket and threw it at Ottore.

"Take it, this is a reward for the idea just now!"

Ottore burst into laughter instantly.

Ezio on the side was so envious that his eyes were red.

Obviously, I first thought of salvaging things in lava, why was Ottore the one who got the reward?

This is not fair!

...

However, Renault soon discovered that the idea of ​​"establishing a lava river salvage station" was not as easy as imagined.

Because what can be salvaged is not only wealth but also fright.

"boom!"

The magma not far away suddenly exploded into magma splashes, and a weird six-legged crawling creature suddenly jumped out of the lava river and rushed toward everyone.

It is about 2 meters long and looks like a beetle. Its abdomen is extremely large, occupying 60% of the body. It has 6 short legs that walk fast, and red lava is constantly dripping from the body, which looks extremely deterrent.

Renault was taken aback.

Fuck, there are creatures that can survive in the magma of more than 1,000 degrees?

This is too unscientific...what kind of protein can withstand such a high temperature without losing its activity?

"Fire!"

Ottore reacted very quickly. He roared, took up a burst of air rifles, and aimed at the aggressive "Lava Hexapod".

"His...His..."

The metal storm broke out.

After the bullet hit the lava hexapod, it made a dense "pop" sound.

But the red shell of this monster is harder than steel, and the bullet is directly bounced, leaving only shallow dents.

Obviously its defensive power is extremely strong, this is a very difficult monster to deal with.

What's more terrible is that no one knows whether there will be more powerful monsters in the lava.

If you really set up a salvage station, if you encounter powerful monsters, such as veteran extraordinary monsters, or terrible monsters, they will be destroyed in minutes, and the salvagers will be reduced to food.

"call!"

The monster seemed to be irritated by the bullet, and a slightly violent wave of magical energy flashed within its body. Then it opened its dark mouth, spit out a head-sized fireball, and swiftly shot it at everyone.

Renault's eyes flashed.

This is... a supernatural creature of the fire element?

wrong!

Not an extraordinary level of mana fluctuations.

Is this a natural ability evolved from living in a magma environment for a long time?

Renault thought secretly while moving his finger lightly.

The next moment, the fireball hovered strangely in the air, and then shot at a faster speed towards the lava hexapod.

Where do you come from? Where do you go back!

This is naturally a masterpiece of [Nian Motive].

In addition, Renault also kindly included a large amount of extraordinarily power of the fire element, which wrapped the fireball to make this gift package more sincere.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise and the fireball burst!

The shock wave caused by the explosion triggered a gust of wind, and raging flames flew in all directions. Within 10 meters of the circle centered on the monster, it instantly turned into an extremely fierce fire.

The lava hexapod is indeed a powerful monster living in magma. It is extremely resistant to flames and high temperatures. The explosion only injured its two legs and shook its internal organs.

After suffering a big loss, it finally understood that the creature in front of it was not a prey, but a terrifying predator.

So it turned around without hesitation and fled.

Renault sneered, waved his hand and shot out a few chills containing the extraordinary power of the ice element.

"Huh! Huh!"

The ultra-low temperature and cold air swept through the air, sending out a sharp whistling.

The lava hexapod only escaped 2, 3 meters away, and was accurately hit by the cold.

Big chunks of ice were born out of thin air, and grew rapidly, instantly crawling over the monster's body, freezing it inside.

Probably because of the high temperature environment that he adapted to, the six-legged monster had surprisingly low tolerance to cold, and was frozen to death on the spot.

A monster that is difficult to match by an extraordinary person, just like this, was killed by someone Lei, and it was no more laborious than crushing an ant.

...

"Hey, Lord Lord, the magic crystal of this six-legged monster looks so strange..."

"Curious baby" Aigiotto cried out in surprise with a dark red magic crystal.

This magic crystal is only the size of two fists, and the volume is not too big. Its skin is distributed with a few black spots, and there seems to be a thick black haze inside, which is slowly drifting and flowing, with a strange beauty.

For some reason, Renault immediately felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart when he saw the magic crystal at the first glance.

When he was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that Ezio, ten meters away, input a mental power into the magic crystal.

Then something strange happened.

The magic crystal actually emitted a faint red light.

"Huh, how could this be?" Ezio scratched his head, his eyes becoming more and more puzzled.

At this time, Renault's spiritual sense suddenly sounded the alarm, and he roared wildly before he thought about it:

"Idiot! Throw it away for me!"

Ezio turned his head in amazement, staring at Renault blankly, not understanding why Lord Lord asked himself to throw away the precious magic crystal.

However, after seeing Renault's extremely serious face, he suddenly woke up: This is a warning from Lord Lord!

However, Ezio didn't have time to react, and the magic crystal suddenly became red, so dazzling that people couldn't open their eyes.

"boom!"

The magic crystal exploded!
