Chapter 46

Cloak of the Lava Hell

Worn on the body, it feels very light and thin.

Whether it can truly withstand the power of lava, Ning Chen does not know.

Nor can he test it in advance.

However, he knows that even without this cloak.

He would still attempt it tonight.

The surrounding mist is very thick.

Not long after moving forward, a layer of dew had already covered his sunglasses.

He wiped the sunglasses and continued forward.

As he moved forward.

In the live stream, comments were still saying, why wear sunglasses late at night?

Naturally, there were also comments laughing, saying things like showing off or being cool.

But for Ning Chen, at this moment, there was no interaction, nor any liveliness.

This was his own climb.

Actually, it could not even be called a climb.

This mountain path was not difficult to walk; once he passed this mountain, ahead lay Changbai Tianchi.

The long journey was all to come here.

But for some reason, at this moment, his heart was very calm.

Perhaps because he knew the authenticity of this system.

So he could be certain that he would definitely reach Changbai Tianchi tonight.

He also knew he would definitely witness a volcanic eruption tonight.

And he knew even more that tonight, he would definitely witness volcanic lightning.

All this certainty made his heart very calm.

If he were to know.

At this moment, it was nearly two in the morning.

On the Shark Live streaming platform, over a million people were watching his progress.

In that case, he did not know if he would still be so calm.

Perhaps he would not be as calm as he is now.

But, actually, maybe it does not matter.

After all, otherwise, how would he dare to face the volcano wearing only a so-called lava-resistant cloak that had never been tested?

Half an hour later.

He passed this mountain.

After finishing the final step, he looked up again.

Ahead was an endless darkness.

No longer blocked by forests and mountains, only a deep darkness remained.

The sound of water could be heard.

This scene reminded him of the black sea below the cliff not long ago.

But the darkness before him was quieter than the sea.

This was Changbai Tianchi of Changbai Mountain.

If it were daytime, it would surely be a breathtaking sight.

But at this moment, nothing could be seen.

Only darkness.

Ning Chen began heading toward the shore of Changbai Tianchi below.

His action immediately silenced the entire live stream.

For a time, the number of comments decreased.

【I want to ask, what exactly is Brother Shiguang doing now?】

【This darkness ahead must be Changbai Tianchi, right? Is he going down now?】

【Is he going to the shore of Changbai Tianchi?】

【But didn't they say a volcano is about to erupt?】

【Does this mean Changbai Tianchi is a volcanic crater? Does that mean he is about to enter the volcanic crater now?】

【Of course, one can go to the shore of Changbai Tianchi, but Changbai Tianchi is about to erupt...】

【He... does he not value his life?】

【Did you see the news just released by the Earthquake Bureau? It said an eruption is expected soon, not that it will erupt right now. Why are you panicking?】

【If it were before, I would definitely believe the Earthquake Bureau's announcement, but after experiencing the meteor shower incident earlier, I now trust this streamer more, so I have a premonition that tonight might be extraordinary...】

【Just wait and see; I hope Brother Shiguang stays safe.】

Changbai Mountain.

Changbai Tianchi.

Ning Chen had already descended from the mountain and arrived at Changbai Tianchi.

At this moment, he was standing by the water's edge.

Checking the time, it was two oh five in the morning.

The system only said it was before dawn.

But it didn't say the exact time.

Before a volcanic eruption, all sorts of strange omens should appear.

But at this very moment, all was calm.

There wasn't a single sound around.

That was eerie.

But this volcano, after all, was no ordinary volcano.

It was a volcano beneath a natural reservoir with an area of ten square kilometers!

In other words, even if it erupted,

it would be an underwater volcanic eruption.

Did Ning Chen sat down on the shore.

After sitting for a while, he suddenly thought of this matter.

Then, he abruptly rose.

He looked at the water before him.

A moment later.

He suddenly walked toward the water.

Once the lake water reached his knees, he plunged straight in and dove beneath the surface…

At this,

the livestream chat exploded.

【Holy crap! Damn it!】

【Why did he jump in the water?!】

【Suicide???】

【Huh? There's actually an underwater camera too?!】

【It really is! It switched to an underwater view!】

【Must be a camera he's wearing on him? It's shaking like crazy!】

In the livestream footage,

it had already switched to an underwater view.

Logically speaking, since it was nighttime, you shouldn't be able to see anything underwater.

But now, the viewers discovered

that underwater was actually brighter than outside!
