BXBX NOVEL 371 Chapter 370
Before those weird creatures could get too close, Leon stopped them using Thunder Ray. In the end, he defeated them, but to have enough time to do that, Leon had to fly upward, and then he touched the ceiling. The magma creatures became rock thanks to Leon\'s attack and fell on the river.
"Ouch!" Leon screamed in pain when he felt his back burning. "How can this be so hot? My Fire Resistance is level one hundred fifty, dammit!"

It wasn\'t that surprising that his skill leveled up, but it had been a long time since that happened that Leon was left speechless. However, it looked like the surprises wouldn\'t end there. Three other creatures left the magma river and flew toward Leon. He used Appraisal, but the skill didn\'t work.
"What the hell.."
Leon didn\'t see anything, not even the question marks or any blue screen appeared… that was too weird. Leon tried to take a spear out of his magic box, but then noticed again that he didn\'t have anything aside from his clothes… it was a habit, but Leon felt like an idiot.
"Eat this!" Leon shot three Plasma Bullets and made the monsters fall on the river of magma again.
Leon sighed in relief, only a plasma bullet was enough to kill those things, but it looked like he wouldn\'t have any peace even if he kills those monsters in one shot. Another three monsters came out of the river…
"Just what the hell is going on here… Are those three the same monsters I killed before? Is the river healing them even though they exploded?"
Leon decided to escape. It wasn\'t time to face any monster. Although he could kill them, he was spending a lot of mana, and he didn\'t have any means to recover his energy unless he waits for it.
Leon flew and tried to escape from the monsters, but they also could fly quite fast. Not only that, but the more Leon flew, the more monsters appeared out of the river of magma to attack him. He couldn\'t outrun them, and his mana was bound to end, even if he only uses Fly…
"Using buffs would only increase my consumption of mana… I have to defeat them."
There weren\'t many places where Leon could put his feet, he found one eventually, but it was quite close to the river of magma… fighting there would be very unpleasant and risky, but he had no other choice. While Leon flew to the small earth platform, he created a hammer made of earth and hardened it. The hammer was five meters long, and a lot of mana would be consumed to turn into steel, so he decided not to do it.
The very moment Leon stepped on the earth platform, his shoes melted, and his feet started to burn. The pain annoyed and made him moan in pain, but at least that made Leon recall that he could fly using much less mana… just by creating a thin layer of the earth under his feet and so he did.

"Shit, am I inside a volcano or something?"
Leon\'s clothes were even starting to burn, so he couldn\'t wast time with those creatures. The moment they entered his range, the heat increased, but he ignored, activated Haste for a second, and smashed three of them on the platform. If the magma were healing them, they wouldn\'t recover as long as they don\'t fall on the river.
The other three surrounded Leon, but he increased the Gravity around himself and made the creatures falter. After a full swing, Leon knocked them down and made them become a paste. One of the last trees grabbed Leon\'s arm, and he felt his flesh being consumed by the flames, everything could have been solved if Leon had used Mana Armor, but he decided not to do it.

Leon paid for his choice, but Rage increased his speed, and then after another full swing, he smashed them on the ground.
"Dammit... even the hammer is burning my hands."
Leon\'s hands were already peeling and red, it wouldn\'t take long before his muscles suffer some damage, and that would be the worst... as if that wasn\'t bad enough, Leon saw the remaining of those magma creatures moving toward the river of magma.
"This has to be a bad joke..."
Leon created a thin wall of earth around the platform to stop the magma creatures from returning to the river... but his earth didn\'t last long when the remainings of the magma creatures touched it. The only thing Leon could do was escape and gain some distance over them, and so he did. However, even after flying for quite a while, Leon didn\'t find an end to that hellish place.
"How in the hell can exist such a big volcano? This doesn\'t make any sense..."
Leon thought he had adapted himself to many situations pretty well, but it looked like that wasn\'t the case. Although he left the island using his power alone, as of late, he was relying a bit too much on magic items, blue angel leaves, and mana potions. This time if he wanted to escape that hell-hole, he would have to improve his survival instincts to a whole new level.
Congratulations! The skill Fire Resistance has leveled up.

Still... Leon couldn\'t help but wonder if he would succeed or melt before that happens...
