Evolution starts with fire

Chapter 2 Black Dragon
The brown-gray cracked ground is covered with volcanic ash, the air is filled with the pungent smell of sulfide gas, and not far away is scorching hot magma, with occasional bubbles.

Don't be surprised, it's not fish spitting bubbles, it's caused by the decomposition of calcium carbonate limestone into carbon dioxide under the action of high temperature.

These disasters, which are enough to wipe out ordinary people a hundred times, could not stop Zhang Yan's footsteps in the slightest.

Gollum~

"No, something's wrong, there shouldn't be fish in the magma, right?"

Due to the lack of eyes, Zhang Yan's eyesight is not very good, but he can vaguely perceive a long shadow under the hot magma.

puff~~

Under Zhang Yan's astonishment, the shadow suddenly emerged, carrying hot molten magma.

This time, Zhang Yan finally saw clearly, that long shadow was a dragon!

The towering head horns, curled wings, ferocious scales, and undisguised sharp claws... all show that this dark dragon has the ability to wipe out the past 100 Zhang Yan with one blow.

Ang~~

As if to confirm Zhang Yan's guess, the high-pitched dragon chant roared out of the dragon's mouth like a sound wave, hitting the air in front of him with strong anger.

boom!
The dragon's body collided with the air. As a result, the dragon's body froze in the air for a second before falling heavily into the magma.

A century of silence followed.

"Gu... this world seems... not that simple."

Zhang Yan said something nonsense.

These days even the flames have become fine, who still thinks that this world is peaceful.

Zhang Yan reckoned, with the temperature of his own fire, it was more than enough to deal with ordinary people with his hot upper body, but he was unlucky, he could make himself GAME OVER with a little boy's urine.

So it needs to be stronger.

As far as Zhang Yan knows, Samadhi True Fire is not afraid of water.

In other words, as long as you work hard enough, you will be able to fight the faucet sooner or later.

"Then...the next goal is: retreat and practice! Try to not be afraid of water as soon as possible."

Zhang Yan has always been a very hardworking person, he did what he wanted, and immediately exposed his minions to the surrounding flames.

After the promotion, Zhang Yan's appetite has increased a lot, and the devouring efficiency has also become higher. It can be clearly seen that the flame inside the flame weakens, dissipates, and assimilates at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even the temperature inside the volcano has dropped a lot, although it is not worth mentioning for hundreds of thousands of flames.

It continued to devour like this, and I don't know how long it took, until one day, Zhang Yan suddenly regained his spirits, and after a few tremblings, his spirits became brighter.

Open the properties panel,
[Host: Zhang Yan
Quality: Fireworks

Power points: 120
Skills: Start a prairie fire, continue the fire

Gain: 0 (+1/-1)

Evaluation: Volcanic stone flames, after absorbing enough flames, you already have the most basic ability to barely survive in the outside world. 】

boom!
Breaking away from the form of a small flame, Zhang Yan's body became taller, as bright as a firewood, and with the resistance of a stone flame, he could not be extinguished even if he touched the ground.

I, fireworks, expand!

But what the hell is this evaluation?

Zhang Yan couldn't understand.

Could it be that the outside world is so dangerous that he can barely survive with fireworks?
Roughly estimated, with the temperature of the volcanic stone flame, even if it is steel, Zhang Yan is sure to smelt it into slag!

"It's time to go out and see."

Taking one last look at the black dragon lurking in the magma, Zhang Yan left the volcano with a trace of nostalgia.

That black dragon was an existence he couldn't afford to mess with. During the days when he devoured flames and magma, every few days, the black dragon would emerge from the magma and slam into the barrier that he couldn't see.

It's a pity that the black dragons failed without exception.

Zhang Yan was full of sympathy for this black dragon, and made up his mind that one day after his strength improved, he would definitely return here...

Then melt the black dragon.

A black dragon that can swim in magma must be a treasure all over its body. If it is swallowed up, it will increase its experience points.

"I'm leaving, you have to stay here and wait for me to come back."

Zhang Yan whispered to the black dragon, turned around, and disappeared into the raging flames.

"Ah Choo~!"

The black dragon, squinting in the depths of the magma and preparing to break through the barrier next time, suddenly sneezed.

I don’t know how much mud and limestone was spit out by this sneeze, stirring the magma into a cement field.

"Damn it, those old bastards are scolding me again... Wait for me... Wait for me to go out, I will definitely not let you go!"

"Rest for a while, and then find a way to go out after recovering your strength..."

After the black dragon fell into a deep sleep, the peace of the past was restored here.

……

boom!
One day, this volcano that had been silent for an unknown amount of time erupted.

Countless sparks, like fountains and shooting stars, sprayed in all directions, and Zhang Yan happened to be among them.

These sparks are like candles, burning their own life after a brief flicker, until the end of life...

Short and beautiful.

"This is life. A flame without a plug-in can only dedicate its life to the embrace of the great mother earth."

Zhang Yan in the air expressed such emotion.

Thanks to the fact that this area is a desert, there is only a small town a hundred miles away, so there were no casualties.

Even so, Zhang Yan was also taken aback by the huge damage caused by the volcanic eruption.

Within a hundred meters, there is no distinction between humans and animals!
There is still a little pride in his heart, he is a part of the huge lethality.

Zhang Yan thought that he would be different after having a cheat, until...

One line after another of red fonts appeared on the property panel in front of him.

[Because there is no combustible material, your fire energy point -1]

[Because there is no combustible material, your fire energy point -1]

-1 o'clock

-1 o'clock

【Current Gain: -1(0/-1)】

The rhythmic notification sounded continuously, beating Zhang Yan's little heart.

A total of 120 fire energy points, six points disappeared in a blink of an eye in a few seconds.

At the same time, Zhang Yan found that every time he lost a bit of fire energy, his body became weaker, and the flames were not burning as vigorously as before.

This kind of change is not obvious, but with the system panel, it would be scary to display it in the form of data.

Thinking of his lifespan being continuously shortened, Zhang Yan was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

"There are 114 points left... What should I do?"

Who would have thought that they have traveled to another world, and they still have to obey the law of energy conservation!
Don't the flames in other worlds burn without energy?
"A flame needs oxygen and combustibles to burn... Now that the oxygen should be available, only the combustibles are left..."

Zhang Yan scratched his head.

Suddenly his expression brightened, and in his perception, a creature was approaching him.

puff!

The sound of breaking ground was heard, and a shadow appeared above Zhang Yan's head.

It was a tawny scorpion!
