Since it is not advisable to scrape off the rust stains with a knife, the three of them can only think of other ways.
— What else can I do
Binglu focused his gaze on the cast iron figurine under the torii gate, and fell into deep thought.
The tattoo is still trying to break apart the iron figurine with brute force.
But he tried several times, and the iron lump was still rusted to death, and he couldn't open it at all.
"No, it really can't be opened!"
Tattoo wiped the sweat from his head and face, and raised his leg irritably and kicked the figurine.
His patience was at its limit.
"Boss."
He turned to look at Ice Grain, "Is there a mountain ax in your storage bag?"
As he said that, the tattoo made a chopping motion to the iron figurine under his feet.
"Let's split it open!"
"no!"
Before Binglao could reply, Baroque rejected the tattoo proposal first.
"If we break the contents inside, we really won't be able to get out!"
Tattoo still wanted to refute, but met Baroque's implied warning gaze, stopped his mouth, and nodded unwillingly.
Binglao looked away indifferently, as if the tattoo had made a very stupid proposal.
Indeed, when you are not sure what is inside the figurines, the risk of using an ax to chop is too high.
This is not a secret exploration RPG game, if you make a mistake, you can load the file and start again.
On the contrary, everything in the maze is unknown, and the danger is extremely high. If one is not careful, the three of them will be wiped out here in minutes.
More importantly, they have no extra time to waste.
— Violence cannot be used.
Binglao frowned, and thought carefully and step by step along the lines of the two of them.
From this point of view, there is still only enough power to open it.
-strength…
Even though time is running out, Binglao's expression still looks indifferent and calm.
He pondered over the words that came to his mind.
— yes, "power."
As long as the iron figurine can really be opened, even if it is closed too tightly due to rust, when the force exerted on it is large enough, it can still be forcibly broken open.
It's a pity that among the three of them, there is no power system user like Mo Tiangen or Ma Ke.
— But is there no other source of "power"
Binglu's eyeballs rolled, and a flash of light flashed in his mind.
-correct!
He moved his gaze from the iron figurines to the bubbling magma around the island in the center of the lake.
"This is it!"
Binglao suddenly stood up with a "thump".
Every time he travels to various "worlds", he will put a set of wild survival adventure equipment in his portable space.
Those things are all high-end items exchanged with points in "Taohuayuan". Although they are only one-time props, they are all forged from high-quality fine steel, which is strong enough to withstand the temperature of lava.
The mountain ax mentioned in the tattoo just now is one of this set of wild survival and exploration tools.
Ice Grail took out a stainless steel bucket from the storage space and hung it on the lower end of the miniature UFO.
Then he controlled the UFO to fly to the edge of the island in the center of the lake, and quickly scooped up half a bucket of magma from the pool.
Fortunately, during the whole process, no strange fish were attracted to covet it.
"Boss, what are you going to do?"
Baroque and Tattoo came over curiously.
Icegrain has no explanation.
UFO flew to the iron figurine with a bucket full of magma, and then threw it down.
The bucket turned over, and thousands of degrees of high-temperature lava poured on the iron figurines.
The iron lump immediately made a "sizzling" sound, bursts of white smoke came out, and even the surface covered with rust stains showed a dark red color unique to metals after heating.
Binglao counted silently for ten seconds.
Then he raised his hand and released a blast of cold air at the iron figurines.
A layer of white ice crystals climbed over the rusted surface.
The heat and cold changed suddenly, and layers of white smoke steamed up, which was comparable to the dry ice special effect on the stage.
Then came the moment to witness the miracle.
Only a few crisp sounds of "crack" and "crack" were heard, and the rusty seam in the middle of the iron figurine burst open neatly.
This is actually just a very simple principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction in junior high school physics.
But under extremely high and extremely low temperature changes, even the hardest metal will be cracked by this force.
Baroque was overjoyed and cheered in a low voice.
And the tattoos jumped on it impatiently, ignoring the unmelted ice crystals on the figurines, and just stretched out their hands to pick them off.
"Crack!"
The figurines split neatly in half, revealing what was hidden inside.
Sure enough, there was a space inside the iron shell, which was filled with dry and brittle straw. The tattoos were scratched a few times in the straw, and eight small white jade piles were found.
These small piles made of jade are conical, pure white and flawless, oily and smooth, each about twenty centimeters long, with similar but distinct textures carved on the surface, so delicate that they can be called handicrafts.
Needless to say, the three of them could tell just by looking at the size and shape of the jade post that it was the "key" to cracking the torii mechanism.
Icegrain, Baroque and Tattoo pounced on the torii, and inserted eight small jade stakes into the holes of the two pillars one by one.
After the eight jade stakes were all in place, they heard a dull sound like some large and heavy metal rubbing against each other.
Immediately afterwards, in front of the cave on the other side of the magma pool, the stone slab blocking the door began to move slowly.
It seems to be lifted by an invisible force, inch by inch, until it is high enough for a person to pass.
Ice Grain tightly clenched the fist behind his back.
However, in the next second, the entire lava lake began to tremble.
This time, the pool of magma not only produced a few bubbles now and then, but like a pot of boiling water, large clusters of bubbles gushed out.
The red strange fish that sank to the bottom of the water jumped out of the bottom one after another like a group of eels thrown into the boiling water, thumping wildly.
"Go!"
With the continuous bursting of bubbles, the smell of sulfur in the air became more and more intense.
"We can't stay any longer, we'll be suffocating before long!"
Baroque covered his nose with one hand, and said in an urgent tone, "Let's leave now that the exit is open!"
Icegrain felt the same way.
He releases a miniature UFO, and on it congeals an ice plate that can hold three people standing.
At the same time, the school of fish seemed to smell the bloody shark, and immediately gathered towards them.
"Give me the remote control!"
With an anxious expression on his face, Baroque eagerly stretched out his hand towards Binglang, "I'll control it!"
As the most powerful of the three, Bingshang is responsible for preventing and blocking the attack of the monster fish during the flight of the UFO, so when he went to the island just now, Baroque was in charge of controlling the UFO.
Baroque's tone was so natural and taken for granted that even the cautious president of Qinxue Society didn't even notice the evil intention hidden in his language trap.
Ice Grail handed the remote control of the miniature UFO to Baroque's hand.
Baroque almost "snatched" it, and took the bauble half the size of a palm with his hands.
Immediately afterwards, his reaction turned out to be to jump back a few steps in a row, and retreated to the side of the tattoo.
"… Hahaha!"
The next second, Baroque suddenly laughed.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
The dry and hot temperature that can dry people, the pungent sulfur smell that is almost suffocating, and the sweat constantly irritating the wound are nothing at this moment.
Baroque's eyes were wide open, and his eyeballs were bloodshot with excitement.
He held the remote control tightly, laughed, and stared intently at Bingshang, looking like a maniac, completely abandoning his usual gentle and elegant disguise.
He watched helplessly as Binglao bent slightly because of the pain.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
Baroque raised his hand with a smile, rubbed his fingertips, and a handful of tiny ice crystals immediately rose up.
"Hahaha, it's mine!"
He squeezed the piece of crushed ice tightly, raised his head, and roared hysterically:
"It's mine! This ability is mine!!"
Except for the tattoos, no one knew that Baroque's ability was actually not an air bomb, but "nameless thief".
Just like the name of the ability, Baroque can take the ability of other people and use it for his own use.
The stronger the ability of the stolen object, the more powerful the ability he can get.
However, Baroque's abilities are not unlimited.
He must meet three specific conditions in order to obtain the target's ability.
First of all, Baroque must have personally seen the other party use the ability in front of him. If he only heard the description from himself or a third party, or saw it from photos or videos, it would not count.
Secondly, when stealing the power, you must say inducing words such as "give me", "give it to me" or "take it", and the other party must actually do what he said, and at the same time give any kind of object into his hands.
Finally, although there is no limit to the number of times he steals, he can only steal one ability each time. If he steals a new ability, the previous ability will be "returned" to the original owner—of course, if the original owner is dead, The previous ability will completely disappear.
In fact, the air bomb Baroque usually uses was "lend" to him by his boyfriend's tattoo, and it was also a disguise he used to conceal his true ability.
And the tattoo thread network covered by tattoos on the skin is nothing more than a very special S-level collection that should be classified as a "weapon" - its essence is "silent" with Ji Thrush's longbow, or Ren Jianmo's jasper finger finger "everything is born" is actually no different.
It is precisely because Baroque has such a rare and magical ability that his way of becoming stronger is different from any other participant.
Every time he enters each "world", Baroque will carefully pay attention to the abilities of other participants in the same company, and wait for the opportunity to seize those abilities that are most helpful for customs clearance.
Once Baroque decides to steal, he will cooperate with the tattoo inside and out, and after he succeeds, he will kill all the victims—as long as it is done beautifully, no one will know the truth.
In fact, the participants who have lost their powers are almost equivalent to unarmed babies, vulnerable to a single blow.
Baroque and Tattoo can easily kill them without any pressure. Even teammates on the same team will not be aware of what the two of them have done.
