Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 719 I will wait

"This much should be enough," Rain thought. "The magic squads can buff weapons like this and that will synergize with the fire dragon bone swords."

Rain summoned a fire sword and then sliced up the next frozen death knight that showed up. The creature use its own sword to block the attack, but the power of the flames cut the sword and the head of the beast. That was enough to kill it…

The skill Ember received 400 experience points.

The skill Fire Control received 400 experience points.

With the equipment that they just got, the warrior would be fine and they would get even stronger in that floor, so Rain wasn't worried… now that he thought about, the equipment made of dragons parts probably will increase the power of the group higher than it was before and they have enough materials to equip everyone…

"I have to hire Lotto to only work for us and hire more people to work with him," Rain thought when he was leaving the dungeon. "This won't be up for debate, unfortunately for him."

In the last battle, Rain got a lot stronger… The numbers showed that, but a long time ago Rain realized that those numbers were just a small fraction of the strength that he truly needed.

"You know what you need to do to become stronger,"

"Motherfucker… you can read my mind?" Rain asked. "Forget the strength to kill all the dragons, I want the strength to turn you into a trash can with my bare hands."

"It is easy to imagine what you are thinking based on your expression,"

That was definitely another lie… In the end, Rain made up his mind about that asshole as well… he will bury it as deep as possible and keep his annoying mouth sealed for all eternity.

After talking with the warriors outside, Rain went hole and then dug another hole under the tunnel that he used. Considering how the shield improved his water magic spells, Rain assumed that the shield would feel pretty comfortable in a tight hole surrounded by steel ten kilometers below the surface.

"The temperature beneath the surface increases with depth due to the planet's internal heat. On average, a planet's geothermal temperature is about 25 to 30 degrees Celsius per kilometer of depth. This means that for every kilometer you go underground, the temperature increases by approximately 25 to 30 degrees Celsius," Rain said while he was digging and sweating when he was only halfway through.

"Use some sunscreen if you burn easily, asshole."

"Hahaha, I don't mind. It is too bad that you are naive enough to think that you don't need my power, but you will eventually call for me when you are desperate enough."

"Don't wait while standing," Rain said. "Let's hope that you won't have to wait for long until some unfortunate bastard finds you after me."

"I can sleep until you return. Despite your naivety, you are probably the best ally that I can have in this generation."

"I can't say the same about a sneaky bastard like you," Rain said. "Power doesn't mean much when there is no trust. I prefer the strength that my friends have than of someone who keeps hiding the important stuff."

"It can't be helped, even if I were to tell you, you wouldn't believe me,"

"Try me," Rain said.

"It is better to wait, when the time comes and you learn the truth, then you will come to look for me because you will need my help. Until then, I will sleep. Speaking of which, do you know how deep the base of the sea dragon is?"

"... What is the point of that question?" Rain asked after he stopped digging for a moment.

"Who knows?"

Rain felt like a retard for still trying to talk with this guy… he decided to forget about it, but eventually, those thoughts began to bother him quite a bit, the reason for that was the fact that Rain was having a hard time digging deeper… the sea cave dragon was like that. Hard to dig in, even though at some point, he only found rocks and sand, he had a hard time digging.

When Rain checked, the level of mana in there wasn't that high.

"The sea dragons cave should be around this deep as well… but it looks like my magic isn't helping that much anymore," Rain thought while furrowing his eyebrows.

Rain thought about various possibilities as to why he encountered difficulties while attempting to dig deeper into the ground. One thought that crossed his mind was the system itself imposing limitations, signaling that delving too deeply might be against its rules or predetermined boundaries.

However, this seemed odd to Rain, especially considering that he was able to manipulate mana in space without such hindrances.

Another hypothesis that floated through his mind was the potential existence of a powerful spell or enchantment placed on the planet. This magical barrier could be designed to deter individuals from reaching certain depths or accessing specific areas. However, Rain found this idea perplexing, as his experiences in space suggested that such restrictions didn't apply universally.

Despite his contemplations, Rain couldn't shake off the uncertainty surrounding this newfound challenge. The mystery of the sea dragon's cave and the parallels it presented with his current situation left him determined to uncover the truth.

He understood that finding the answers might require him to dig deeper, not only into the earth but also into the underlying mysteries of the world he inhabited.
