Battle of Ascension

Chapter 279: A Strange Talk



Chapter 279: A Strange Talk

What Randy felt was hot when he sank down into the boiling lava, but there was only hot, his skin until his hair was fine under the high temperature of lava.

Even though he was fine, but the heat of lava was unbearable for him at first. As time went by, he felt his body was adjusting with the high temperature and the heat which at first unbearable became warm.

Randy let out a sigh of relief at this before letting his right hand appeared to the surface of lava, making a sign for his wife he was fine here.

He knew that his wife didn't immediately leave after telling her his purpose for bathing in lava was because she worried of him. Randy made a sign he was fine for his wife, then he began absorbing the Fire Energy in lava.

Shana told him he only needed to circulate his Fire Elemental Energy inside his body, then his body automatically would absorb the Fire Energy to increase his level of Fire Elemental Power.

There was no need for a long time after circulating the Fire Elemental Energy for five seconds he could feel a hot air seeped inside his body. Yes, Fire Energy was like hot steam seeped into his body.

In the first minute, Randy felt uncomfortable but later he the uncomfortable feeling vanished and replaced with a comfortable feeling.

It was like soaking in the hot spring, but the comfortable feeling didn't make him forget what Shana advised him, it was not to absorb all the Fire Energy.

Shana advised to do so because if he dried the Fire Energy out, the small mound would not be able to regenerate more Fire Energy in the future. He could not suck all Fire Energy so that later he could absorb the Fire Energy again in the future, also for other guild's member.

He could not be selfish to suck dried out the Fire Energy because this Semarang Territory was a precious for his guild's future.

But Randy didn't know how to measure the Fire Energy in the lava and decided that he would go up after five minutes absorbing the Fire Energy.

Five minutes passed quickly and Randy climbed out from the lava. He didn't check the progress of his Fire Elemental Power, but he looked back at the lava.

The thick crimson red lava now almost turned into yellow, a slight orange. Randy wondered if he had sucked all the Fire Energy in the lava or not because there was a huge change in the color of lava.

"You haven't sucked the Fire Energy completely, there's still Fire Energy inside," Shana's melodious voice rang inside his head.

Hearing Shana's confirmation, Randy let out a sigh of relief.

After that, he checked his Fire Elemental Power, how many Fire Energy he had absorbed in the five minutes.

Level 1 (2/100%) [Fire Elemental Bloom (0-Petal)]

He got two percent from absorbing one small mound of lava, but it was not a bad result. If he used Energy Cores, he would need millions of cores to get his Fire Elemental Power to level up.

Millions Fire Energy Cores that amount was impossible to get in a short time. Not only that, if he relied on the Energy Core, then it was almost impossible for him to get his Fire Elemental Power to level up to the max level.

So, two percent was a good result as there were many mounds of lava in Semarang Territory.

Afterward, Randy kept absorbing the Fire Energy in every small mound he found until the night came and the Garuda's members back to the camp.

Randy satisfied after absorbing many Fire Energy from the small mound, he had his Fire Elemental Power leveled up to level three in six hours. But the hunt of Garuda's members didn't go smoothly.

Today hunt led 137 people got injured because of the Fire Wisp's explosion, but there was no one died as they immediately treated the injured member.

Also, from 6 hours hunting the Fire Wisp, the Garuda's member had themselves familiarized with the Fire Wisp, but what was weird was the Fire Wisp could only be found after exploring 15 miles area forward.

This situation was far different compared four months ago when he would meet Fire Wisp in each ten meters steps.

Randy didn't think much about this or investigated it, but he had a hunch this related to the skeleton army. He told Garuda's members to rest and continued the conquest tomorrow.

There was nothing happened as the night passed and morning greeted Randy's force.

Randy let the Garuda's members had their breakfast before they marched forward. They packed the camp and today mission was to take Semarang Territory from the Elemental.

On the way, Garuda's members under Zhen Yi's lead was hunting the Fire Wisp, clearing the path while looking for the Territory King.

Randy had encountered the Territory King of the Semarang Territory once, he described the Territory King to them before telling them to not confront the Territory King recklessly.

Afterward, they were hunting the Fire Wisp while Randy absorbed the Fire Energy at every mound he found. The first day, Randy's force only advanced in a short distance as the Garuda's members were having a hard time to face the Rare Fire Wisp.

Not only Randy's group who had encountered the trouble but Long Xinya's groups also the same.

Long Xinya's group had entered Yogyakarta Territory, but Yogyakarta Territory was a swamp, swamp filled territory, and the creature resided in that territory was the annoying one; it was Insect, the poisonous one.

Actually, Long Xinya, Udin, Gusti, Asuka, and Akihiro could sweep the Yogyakarta with only them. However, Randy ordered them not to do so as the main purpose for Happy Conquest was not to conquer the territory but to drill the Garuda's member, making them grew stronger.

Because of these reasons, Long Xinya could only lead the Garuda's members slowly, the same as Randy's group.

Randy's groups took three days before finally they passed the Rare Fire Wisp's area and arrived at the Epic Fire Wisp's area, more dangerous Elemental.

The same as usual, Randy would soak himself in the lava and Zhen Yi was hunting the Fire Wisp with the Garuda's members.

Randy had his Fire Elemental Power leveled up to level 8 after absorbing the Fire Energy in the Semarang Territory for four days, two more levels before his Fire Elemental Power to grow the first petal.

After his Fire Elemental Power evolved to Fire Elemental Bloom, he needed to grow seven petals before he could evolve for the next realm; it was what Shana told him when he asked about the petal in his Elemental Power.

That was why Randy was so dedicated to absorbing the Fire Energy in the last four days.

Randy's groups stayed five days in Epic Fire Wisp's area before they reached the Semarang Territory Border.

Also, finally Randy understood why the Fire Wisp was scarce when he arrived at the border, it because the Elemental was having a war against the Skeleton Army.

The Territory King of the Semarang Territory also here, leading the small Fire Wisp as they defended their territory.

The most of Fire Wisp gathered on the border, but because the overwhelmed number of Skeleton Army, the Elemental was on the verge of losing.

Randy noticed there were 9 skeletons with armor surrounded the Territory King of Semarang Territory. Surprisingly, they didn't fight it was like the 9 skeletons with armor were having a talk with The Territory King.

Randy ordered the Garuda's members to not take part between the two forces directly but waiting for the conclusion.

Garuda's members just had their head nodded at Randy as an astonished look appeared on their face, looking at the sea of skeletons and the small sun before them.

Randy told Garuda's member to move away from the war, and he got closer with his Shadow Elemental Power as he wanted to hear what the nine skeletons talked with the Territory King.

There were two purposes of him to approach them. The first was to kill the Territory King, and the second he wanted to hear what they talked about.

The reason he had Garuda's members distanced themselves from here was because he afraid if he didn't kill the Territory King at once they would get the impact of the Territory King's explosion.

When he arrived at one of the nine skeleton shadows, he found something strange. Even though the nine skeletons in like talking with the Territory King, but there was no sound come out as only silence around them, there was no talk at all.

However, the atmosphere around the nine skeletons and the Territory King was intense, at least it was what he felt. As time went by, the atmosphere became increasingly intense.

After 5 minutes, the two sides seemed to reach into disagreement as the nine skeletons with armor pulled out their weapon and began attacking the Territory King.

Different from the normal Fire Wisp who would self-destruction if its opponent pierced its body, the Territory King would fly high and shot a barrage of the fireball.

However, the nine skeletons easily avoided the fireball, but the nine skeletons had no way to deal at the Territory King who was in the 20 meters above the ground.
