Road Survival: My RV is a Moving Castle
Chapter 375 Exploring the Volcano
Kaka raised its little head, its yellow-brown fur blowing straight back in the wind, and its two little ears flapping incessantly, looking somewhat excited.
It gazed at the volcano that roared intermittently in front of it, its small, round eyes half-closed, revealing a calm and composed demeanor.
Song Chiyu looked at the map and found that reaching this point meant reaching the destination.
The rest is up to the players to explore the volcano themselves.
A hint of worry flashed in Xie Xunjin's eyes.
This active volcano could erupt at any time, it is very unstable, the danger level is unknown, and there are many uncertainties in exploring it.
However, just as he was still considering these issues, Song Chiyu next to him had already started walking forward.
"Everyone be careful and follow my steps."
Song Chiyu put two drops of X-ray vision liquid into her eyes, so that her vision could see through the layers of mountains and into the hot, molten lava in the very center.
However, the penetrating power of the liquid is limited, at most five meters, and her vision cannot completely penetrate such a large volcano.
Above the very center of the lava hung a snow-white treasure chest.
She walked in front, and Xie Xunjin and the other two followed obediently in line behind her.
The volcano's body is very warm, and you can feel it trembling slightly when you step on it.
There were no plants or animals around, only gray-black soil and light-colored lime. With each step, a very obvious footprint would be left on the ground.
And the shoes will get covered in white dust, which is very difficult to wipe off.
Song Chiyu walked very carefully, always choosing to go to the thickest part of the mountain in the morning.
However, at that moment, two regular shoe prints suddenly appeared directly in front of them, walking diagonally upwards from the side.
The footprints weren't fresh; they were covered with a thin layer of white ash.
It seems the owner of the shoe print has been here for quite some time.
"There were two people, or perhaps more, who came here."
Song Chiyu frowned slightly, a vague sense of unease rising in her heart.
To avoid encountering other players, she chose to change direction, increasing the distance between herself and the footprints, and continued walking towards the top of the mountain.
Five minutes later, Song Chiyu and his three companions, along with a pig, successfully reached the top of the volcano.
This is a huge circular pit, from which a real stream of heat is constantly rising into the air, along with some white ash and stone skin mixed in with the heat.
Xie Xunling was a little curious, so she put her hand on the ground and touched it, but immediately pulled it back because it was so hot.
"The ground is so hot."
She couldn't help but rub her palm, which had turned red from just one touch, and muttered something.
Upon hearing this, Song Chiyu immediately realized that the volcano might have erupted not long ago.
There is only one path at the edge of the volcano, covered with footprints, and that is the only way down.
It seems there's no way to avoid the players who went down earlier.
Follow the path down.
The space below is very narrow, and the so-called path is just a narrow passageway.
Only one person can pass at a time. One side of the passage is a volcanic rock wall, and the other side is a bottomless darkness. If you accidentally step into a hole, you will fall directly into the lava at the bottom.
Fortunately, it seems that people in the past would occasionally embed some protruding wooden handrails into the cliff face along the path to make it easier to walk.
It looks like it was made by myself, and the workmanship is a bit rough.
However, this also conveniently benefited Song Chiyu and his group.
Everyone took turns leaning forward, moving cautiously to the side.
The surrounding air became increasingly hot and scorching, and the air was very murky, mixed with a lot of fine dust.
Fortunately, everyone was wearing masks, so it didn't have too much of an impact.
As we walked, the path widened a bit.
A cave entrance appeared directly in front of us, with mountains on both sides, and it was pitch black inside.
Turn on the flashlight and shine it inside. To my horror, I saw a lifeless, mummified corpse leaning against the wall.
The corpse's exposed skin was wrinkled and looked as if it had been drained of blood.
Xie Xunling, who was behind her, happened to look up and saw it, and let out a small gasp in fright.
Judging from the clothes on the corpse, it was clearly an ordinary player.
What's strange is that the body only had an upper body; the lower body was missing, as if it had been bitten in half by some kind of huge wild rodent.
The soil around the body was completely soaked in blood.
However, because the surrounding temperature was relatively high, the soil stained red by the corpse had already dried.
When Song Chiyu saw the corpse, his temples throbbed.
Therefore, it seems that something terrifying might be lurking inside this volcano.
The surrounding space is relatively narrow, making it unsuitable for longer weapons.
So, Song Chiyu took out the plum blossom dagger he had previously crafted and held it tightly in his hand.
The people behind him also took their weapons and walked forward cautiously.
Song Chiyu put away the flashlight, took out four searchlights from his spatial storage, and tied one to each person's head.
This way, I can keep my hands free and won't be affected if a fight breaks out.
Four beams of light shone forward simultaneously, and the road ahead instantly became crystal clear.
The road is winding and mostly downhill, with some slopes reaching almost 60 degrees.
If you accidentally slip and fall, you might slide all the way to the bottom.
Everyone remained silent and walked forward quietly.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the road suddenly came to an end, revealing a break in the path.
On the other side of the broken section is the entrance to another passage.
Shining the flashlight beam down the fracture, one could see warm red lava flowing slowly, bubbling and gurgling.
A large chunk of mud slipped from underfoot and fell straight into the lava.
Just as they were approaching the lava, a circular wave of lava suddenly emerged from the side, completely covering the soil.
A lot of lava splashed up.
Upon seeing this, Xu Xingshi immediately pulled his outstretched neck back and quietly took a step back.
To move forward, we must jump over this gap and get to the other side.
Judging by the distance, it's at least three meters between the two sides. It's not impossible to jump across, but the risk is too great.
Song Chiyu didn't want to waste time on this, so he took out the flying carpet and led everyone through the gap to the passage on the other side.
The rest of the journey was much faster, perhaps because we were almost at the bottom of the volcano, where the slope became much gentler.
Five minutes later, the passage finally ended.
Everyone arrived at a wide, flat area, and directly in front of them was a huge lava lake.
There are also many tributaries around, flowing continuously and bubbling with hot water.
The white treasure chest was hanging on the rock wall directly above the lava.
However, there is a large black hole in the middle of the rock wall behind the treasure chest.
A pure black snake's head was faintly visible at the entrance of the dark hole, its eyes tightly closed, clearly asleep.
However, in Song Chiyu's view, this so-called black snake cannot be fully called a snake.
