Chapter 0792 Ambush in the Fire Pool

In the following days, Grimm began his voyeur career!

Unfortunately, the Lord Artes was like a typical otaku, immersed in the lava fire pool every day, and was almost never seen going out to patrol the territory or meet with his subjects. Even if the captain of the guard came to report his work occasionally, he would sit cross-legged in the fire pool and send him away with a few words.

From this, it can be seen that the fire lords of the fire element plane generally do not have too strong a desire for power, and they are almost fully devoted to absorbing the energy of fire and improving their own strength. And their way of improvement is so primitive and simple that they are a bit ashamed of the high-quality resources and convenience they have.

Under the peeping of the witchcraft eye that Grimm secretly placed, the Lord Artes no longer has any secrets or privacy for him. In the surveillance and peeping that alternates day and night, Grimm is also repeatedly thinking and calculating feasible plans to assassinate the other party.

A frontal attack will definitely not work!

The opponent is also a powerful 2nd level flame lord. Even if it is a fair challenge, Grimm has no more than 40% chance of defeating the opponent. If the 1st level lava giant guards are added, under their harassment, Grimm's chance of winning will drop directly to 10%.

If he is a little less lucky, the 2nd level lava giant captain is still with Artes, and Grimm has no chance of winning even 10%!

So from the beginning, Grimm made a plan to sneak attack and kill.

Before taking action, Grimm needs to find a way to weaken the opponent's basic strength. Otherwise, as long as the opponent can hold on for seven or eight minutes, then the lava giants of the entire flame city will come to beat Grimm alone.

Fortunately, before setting off, Grimm considered the need to sneak attack and kill a flame lord, and also bought a batch of ice crystal cold marrow at a high price in the wizard market. This is a strange ice marrow taken from the parotid gland of the ice monster snowworm, which is also a rare and precious material.

If a wizard who practices ice uses it as medicine, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance his own strength. But if a fire wizard accidentally takes it, there will be terrible consequences of being polluted by it.

Of course, with Artes's strength, it is difficult for Grimm to deceive the other party to swallow the ice crystal cold marrow, so Grimm can only find another way and use other methods to achieve this indirectly.

This day, Grimm slipped out of his hiding place again and sneaked into the Fire City quietly.

After these days of scouting and exploration, Grimm has already figured out the terrain of this Fire City, and he is even more familiar with the key nodes.

In one breath, hundreds of alchemy were buried on most of the supporting stone pillars of the Fire City. When the scheduled time came, Grimm immediately detonated all of them remotely without hesitation.

The Fire City, which had just been silent for less than 40 days, fell into chaos and madness again.

The stone pillars supporting the upper rock wall were blown off one by one, and the rubble and collapsed rock wall above the Dust Fire Canyon rolled down, burying nearly 1/5 of the city in the falling rocks.

The deafening roar and earth-shaking power immediately led Artes, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, out of the Flame Hall.

While Artes was roaring and shouting outside the hall, Grimm slipped in again and plunged into the lava fire pool.

After entering, the first thing Grimm did was to set up a strange flame magic array on the bottom of the pool. This flame magic array is divided into three layers in total, taking into account three kinds of magic effects.

The first effect is of course to absorb the flame energy in the lava fire pool and provide it to Grimm as a follow-up supplement for his battle. The second effect is the flame cage, which uses the energy in the fire pool as material to build a flame cage that isolates the inside and the outside at the edge of the pool. In this way, there is no need to worry about being disturbed by the outside world!

The third effect is the invisibility barrier, which can hide Grimm's soul breath to avoid being detected by the opponent in advance.

After the witch array was set up, Grimm set up a small witchcraft trap in the place where Artes liked to lie the most, and hid the sealed ice crystal cold marrow in it.

After all this was properly arranged, Grimm dispersed his real body, let himself disintegrate into a misty fireball, and quietly hid at the bottom of the lava fire pool.

With the cover of the invisibility barrier, as long as the opponent did not deliberately scan this area, it would be impossible to find Grimm's existence. After all, the fire lord Artes was only good at physical combat, and his mental power was only 13 points, while if Grimm transformed into a fire demon twice, his mental power would be as high as 29 points.

Such strength, plus the terrifying fire demon, is enough to fight Artes!

The waiting time always passes very slowly.

His own territory was blown to pieces by foreign enemies, but his incompetent subordinates could not even find the shadow of the enemy. Such a thing would be enough to make anyone angry and furious.

After knocking down three lava giants in one breath, Artes finally vented his anger. While ordering Huo Lie, the only Level 2 tribesman under him, to lead a small group of lava giants to search the entire city carefully, he ordered the Fire Element Corps to rush to the entrance of the Dust and Fire Canyon and completely block it.

Before the troublemaker is found, no creature can step out of the Dust and Fire Canyon!

This time, the order of the Fire Lord Artes was resolutely implemented.

A large number of formed fire elements occupied the entrance and set up a cordon, while the lava giants loudly repeated the lord's orders and gathered all the flame creatures in a special cave for subsequent careful identification.

And Artes transferred two lava giants to guard outside the flame hall, so that the number of level 1 lava giant guards around him reached four. This is an unprecedented and strict measure for the lava giant clan with only 27 people in total.

After angrily scolding his men for a while, Artes shook his heavy and solid body and came to the lava fire pool again, and jumped in without hesitation.

The bottom of this fire pool is slowly sloping downward. The edge of the fire pool is only more than three meters deep, and the central area is seven or eight meters deep, so Artes stood on the edge, and nearly half of his body was still exposed outside.

As his thoughts were disturbed, Artes didn't care about everything in the fire pool. He slowly pushed the golden mountain over and overturned the jade pillar, half leaning and half lying on the edge of the fire pool, with only his huge head of one meter square exposed outside the magma. In order to wait for the results of the tribe's search, Artes did not choose to take a nap, but slowly closed his eyes, silently absorbing the abundant flame energy that continued to overflow from the rolling slurry.

And just as it was drifting a little trance, Grimm, who was lurking at the bottom of the fire pool, slowly condensed his body and opened his eyes.

As a 2nd-level fire wizard, Grimm's own flame energy was also astonishingly high. It was impossible for Grimm to face Artes head-on without the other party noticing. So Grimm dispersed the energy in advance and used the flame energy of the lava fire pool to cover his existence.

Now that the action was about to start, Grimm began to condense his body unscrupulously and madly increase his strength.

The first transformation... the body of fire!

The second transformation... the body of the fire demon!

As the two tall bodies of the Flame Demon rose from the ground, the flame energy of the entire lava pool was completely disrupted, and a powerful spiritual consciousness quickly pressed towards the Lord Artes.

Hmm... what's going on?

Artes, who was still resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the bottom of the sticky and stagnant fire pool in horror.

There, a strong flame energy suddenly condensed and took shape, and then crushed it like a small mountain.

There is an enemy!

The enemy is at the bottom of the lava pool!

Artes, who understood it instantly, roared and planned to stand up.

Unfortunately, Grimm's mental power had already been activated.

The first one to find Artes was naturally the magic mechanism set by Grimm on the pool wall.

As a flame rune suddenly emerged and shattered, a fist-sized halo with a hazy red glow hit Artes's thick lava legs. Then in the next moment, the red light dissipated, and a breath of icy air that frightened Artes quickly dissipated from the impact point.

In just a moment, Artes and the surrounding lava pool of more than ten meters were frozen in a layer of blue ice crystals. A layer of strange frost flowers spread along Artes' lava body, toward his chest, head and arms.

If this layer of frost flowers spread to his flame core and soul origin, I'm afraid his subsequent promotion would no longer be possible.

Fire overcomes ice, ice overcomes fire!

These two attributes are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, there is no real strength or weakness, only the local abundance or deficiency!

With Artes' strength and the endless flame power of the lava pool, the icy power carried by this group of ice crystal cold marrow would be consumed in less than half a minute. But before the ice power was consumed, at least in Artes' body, the sudden burst of ice power still had the upper hand, corroding Artes and making him scream and curse.

Just as Artes was trying hard to condense the flame energy in his body to fight against the invading ice power, the slurry inside the fire pool splashed everywhere, and two tall fire demons rose from the ground and launched the most fierce attack on it.

At the edge of the lava fire pool, the red slurry, under the restraint and distortion of a strange force, rose from the ground to form dozens of lava fire pillars more than one meter thick, completely blocking the entire pool.

The four lava giant guards who came after hearing the news saw the besieged fire lord through the gaps in the fire pillars, and immediately hit and rammed the lava fire pillars desperately. Unfortunately, with the continuous replenishment of the endless energy of the lava fire pool, the fire pillars were just partially damaged, and they were repaired in the blink of an eye.

The lava giant guard could not help but roar loudly in anger...
