Chapter 1589: Chapter 668: Everything is Ready

Wang Tao previously didn’t understand what caused the high temperature, thinking it was a natural disaster similar to "corrosive acid rain." The only difference being that the acid rain falls from the sky, while the high temperature rises from underground...

As for why the seawater in the rift wasn’t much affected by the high temperature, Wang Tao had thought about various possibilities before but found them all incorrect. He’s not someone to get stuck on a problem, so if he couldn’t figure it out, he simply didn’t think about it anymore, hence he never knew.

But now, the cause of the high temperature can basically be determined — there are seventh-level destruction monsters underground, and the high temperature is brought by their destruction domain [Great Drought], which is governed by the fire law.

Now that the true cause of the high temperature is known, can it be inferred that the seawater in the rift hasn’t evaporated because there’s water law within these waters?

Perhaps because they are mutually restraining, with equal strength, they don’t affect each other?

Although Wang Tao didn’t have direct evidence, there are many disaster-level water-type sea beasts in the rift, while no such level of monsters exists in other waters. So Wang Tao speculated that there is indeed water law in the water within the rift. The drought can easily evaporate ordinary water, but evaporating water with water law might not be so easy.

If that’s really the case, then many of Wang Tao’s doubts would be easily resolved.

At the same time, a thought also flashed in Wang Tao’s mind — could he use "water law" to hunt the "Fire God"?

Wang Tao didn’t know if there were seventh-level destruction monsters in the seawater, but that wasn’t important. Even if there were seventh-level destruction entities in the water, they wouldn’t be easily lured by Wang Tao, and he might even get himself involved.

Wang Tao was thinking if he could use the seas and the sea beasts within, since those sea beasts have water attributes, and if he could make them attack the Fire God, there might be unexpected results!

Luring those level-6 sea beasts was something Wang Tao was quite familiar with. He was confident in drawing them out. As for which kind of sea beasts would come, Wang Tao couldn’t guarantee that, but as long as he could lure them, it was fine.

The more Wang Tao thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and he got a bit excited, so he took a deep breath, then put this matter aside and informed Gu Yun about the seventh-level destruction magma monster.

"Seventh-level... destruction-level... destruction domain covering three million square kilometers... and more than one? The current high temperature is their drought... and they can’t be killed..."

Gu Yun clearly didn’t expect that Wang Tao would bring back such bad news from his trip.

Compared to the threat posed by this seventh-level destruction monster, the water resource shortage at Changhe Base didn’t seem as critical. After all, by rationing, the water resources could last a while, but if a seventh-level destruction monster came to Changhe Base, the consequences would be unthinkable!

Wang Tao patted Gu Yun’s shoulder, indicating that this news was something they needed to digest thoroughly.

As for making preparations in advance...To be honest, it’s of no use, because encountering a seventh-level destruction monster means immediate evacuation unless they fly away quickly. If it approaches Changhe Base, there’s no hesitation — abandon the base and flee at once, everyone for themselves...

"You can tell the others about this news. I’m heading back first."

Wang Tao left City Hall, and upon returning home, immediately discussed with everyone about using the rift sea beasts to hunt the Fire God.

Everyone also thought the plan was feasible.

In using the summoning altar, all preparations must be made, and adding a rift sea beast into the mix was no issue.

As for whether they could actually defeat the Fire God...they could only do their best and leave the rest to fate.

Looking at the current situation, if Wang Tao couldn’t ascend to the seventh tier, what awaited them was slow death, and if luck was worse, they might not even get slow death, the entire base could suddenly perish!

Wang Tao definitely didn’t want to sit and wait for death, so he could only choose to take a gamble!

After determining the overall direction, in the following days, Wang Tao and everyone else continuously researched the specific plans for using the summoning altar.

Firstly, it was confirmed that the summoning altar should be used at the edge of the rift. The previous location where the transparent fish was found was quite ideal, as it was a reasonable distance from Changhe Base, and there might still be transparent fish in the water, a good place to hunt the Fire God.

Actually, Wang Tao thought that summoning the Fire God in the ocean should have the best effect. The water elements and water laws there should be very abundant, having a restraining effect on the Fire God.

But the issue is, Wang Tao dared not go out into the ocean!

Since it was confirmed that seawater could restrain the fire principle domain, Wang Tao had reason to suspect that there might be a seventh-tier water law monster in the ocean! Something similar to the magma monster.

If Wang Tao went into the ocean under these conditions, the Fire God might not be summoned successfully, and he might end up dead first...

So it’s better to play it safe and summon next to the rift.

After confirming the specific location, the next step was to decide when to use the summoning altar.

He needed to leave himself enough time to prepare, but he couldn’t delay too long either. Because the HP of these seventh-level destruction creatures decreases every day, they would completely die in about twenty or thirty days, so they had to summon the Fire God before that time. Wang Tao definitely didn’t want it dead; its death would be equivalent to a nuclear explosion!

Even if Wang Tao successfully ascended to the seventh tier and had the ability to kill such destruction-level creatures, he wouldn’t act.
