Chapter 72
Although the firepower of the nezumi machine is so powerful, I have heard of it before, but seeing it today really made Mo taste it.
It seems that he can only give it a go, although the rat man has a high-end technology "magic shifter", but even if the elements of the body magic are shifted, the body magic will still work normally! Seeing the light barrier that was about to shatter, Mo couldn't help but turn his head and make a color towards Mu Xin.
"Huaguang Thorn!" The magic that rapidly drained his body energy was released again, and Mu Xin immediately applied another protective barrier to Mo's body, so that Mo Neng could minimize its damage as it went.
As the light element quickly covered Mo's body, the sword body seemed to give it a gravitational pull. The ink stabbed at the gray-haired rat-man like an arrow from the bow.
Several rockets around him burst out next to Mo in an instant, but they were all left behind by the speed of Hua Guang Thorn.
Just as Mo's sword body had just entered the attack range, he clearly felt the sword body tremble and began to shift in other directions, no matter how hard he forcibly controlled it, it was useless.
"Oh no!" Mo was shocked, if he couldn't succeed in this blow, he would instantly fall in the crowd of rats without the magic element.
And the mercenary team has lost the protection of ink, and I am afraid that it will also be covered by bursting arrows, and I am still too careless!
In these few short moments, several thoughts flashed through Mo's mind, but at this important moment like calcium carbide sparks, there was a sudden "boom" behind him.
A very special gunshot came from behind, and then Mo's sword regained its control!
I saw that the gray hairy rat man's magic offset was emitting white smoke and making a sizzling sound, and the mechanical lights were dimmed.
Mo did not hesitate to adjust the position of the sword at this last moment, although he did not accurately stab the sword into the gray hairman's heart, but the sword body slashed from the gray hairman's lower abdomen to the shoulder.
A line of blood spilled out in the air, and everyone in the mercenary team immediately followed, and in an instant, feather arrows, magic, and even Eugene's giant axe arrived at the rat crowd in an instant.
The battle was quickly resolved in a situation where the strength was overwhelming, and Ink collapsed in collapse next to the gray-haired rat-man.
That's when Mo noticed the source of the gunshot. I saw that the rat man they had worked so hard to rescue was sitting weakly on the ground at this time, holding a spear in his hand, and it seemed that he had barely carried out the attack just now.
After the battle, Mu Xin ran to Mo's side for the first time to carefully inspect Mo's body, and only calmed down after seeing that there were no obvious wounds.
Then Mo asked Eugene to send the nezumi back to the resting place, and let everyone clean up the battlefield a little, although this battle was not easy, but the harvest was also full, and these nezumi machinery and equipment should be able to sell at a good price in the market.
Mo rested for a while before slowly standing up, and then accompanied everyone back to the inn.
Then he walked straight to the nezuman's bedside and asked, "Why are you awake?"
At this time, the nezumi seemed to be much better than before, and he leaned against the head of the bed and said, "If I don't wake up with such a big movement, then I will be no different from the dead!"
Mo smiled and asked, "Just now thanks to you for hitting the magic offset with one shot, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!"
The nezumi waved his paws, and said, "You helped me, and naturally I will do my best to help you." ”
"I know your identity now, you're the second prince of the rat-man country, right?"
The nezumi didn't seem too surprised, after all, this is a nezumi town, and it's not unusual for someone to recognize him.
"Yes, I'm Evan, the second prince of the Nezumi Kingdom. ”
Mo then continued, "What's next for you?"
"Kenny, my brother, someone must have gotten out of my whereabouts this time to ambush me, and it looks like I'm going to have to go back and check on my people. Moreover, now is the important moment for me to compete with him for the throne, and I should contend with him in the capital at this time!"
Mo saved the second prince this time, not only because he stood up to help people in distress, but also hoped that he could establish a good relationship with the rat-man country through this second prince.
"As far as I know, the battle between you is in full swing right now, and if there's anything you need me in the future, I'm going to help. ”
"Most of the civil wars between our clan are fought by mechanical equipment, and if there is the help of the elemental envoys, I would naturally be more happy to see it, but you will be so kind to help me?" Evan looked at the ink meaningfully.
And Mo didn't hide it, and said straight to the point, "Some help is naturally paid, but before that, I don't think anything is more important than you seizing the throne, what do you say?"
"That's nature, the rat-man country is the largest economic and technological power on the planet Miliam, if you can help me in the future, I will never forget your help!"
"It's a deal!" Mur shook hands with Evan and exited Evan's room.
After a whole night of searching and marching, and fighting the rat crowd in the early morning, the crowd was already tired. This sleep went straight to the evening before getting up one after another, but Evan was still lying in bed to recuperate.
"We need to continue our search for the Blood Clotted Frog tonight, so please get ready. Mo stood at the entrance of the cave in the inn, looked at the crowd and said.
"Whether our mercenary team can be upgraded from the beginner to the intermediate level depends on the points of this mission, right?" Xiao Ye looked at Ogu to confirm his points calculation after finishing speaking.
Ogu nodded, and then said, "If this mission fails, then not only will we not be able to upgrade our mercenary team, but we will even wipe out all the points from before." ”
Mo knew that the mercenary team had points, because the upgrade of the mercenary team meant that the team's strength improved and the range of tasks it could accept.
"Then what are we waiting for, let's go?!" With that, Lynn led the way to the South Swamp, and everyone also held their weapons in their hands, stepping into the unbearable South Swamp for the second time.
With the experience of the last march, most of the poisonous insects and ambushes were avoided this time, but apart from the ordinary swamp creatures, there was no trace of the Blood Clotting Frog at all.
They searched until midnight, when they stopped in a fairly clean space to rest.
Mu Xin set up a fire in the middle of the clearing, and Xiao Ye casually threw a spark to illuminate the surroundings.
And Mo was chatting with Eugene about the Blood Clotting Frog at this time.
"Think about it again, if your friend who works in the swamp has any other useful information for you. Mo sat on the ground, thinking that it was impossible to find it in such a nonsensical way.
It was the moonlight, and the light of the campfire alone could not penetrate the foggy swamp wetland.
Eugene wiped his shiny nose and said, "Well, let me think about it." Then he made a contemplative gesture.
"Aside from how poisonous and rare it is, there really isn't any other information available!" Eugene replied helplessly after a few moments.
"Don't stress too much, blood clotting frogs are already very rare, plus we are not familiar with this swamp, take your time. At this time, Yang Xin, who was listening to the discussion between the two, said to Mo.
"If I were normal, I would have taken it at ease. But this is related to the rank promotion of the mercenary team, and if this mission fails, the impact will be too great!"
Before Mo could spit out the last sigh of his words, an extremely piercing toad suddenly burst out of the swamp hinterland.
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and it was the first time they had heard such a strange toad.
Then everyone couldn't help but feel happy, could it be!?
Without further ado, almost all of the people in the team had had had enough of the harsh conditions of the swamps and wanted to end this irritating journey as soon as possible.
Then, Yu Mo led the way into the swamp quickly, and the sound of the toad was even more undulating at this time, constantly reaching everyone's ears.
After rushing through several swampy craters, everyone finally found the source of the sound.
But before they could get close to the swamp, Mur noticed something unusual.
In the distance, Mo could see a large swamp in the forest, a cloud of vivid green and red becoming more and more clear.
When he got closer, Mo understood. I saw two huge strange frogs suspended above the silt of the swamp, and when I looked closely, I saw that there were actually two black and gray flowers on the silt, like dead lotus flowers, holding the two giant frogs standing in the silt.
The two strange frogs of different colors shone like two brilliant gems in the dark night, and many shining stars emanated from their bodies and began to mingle with each other above the filthy mud, just like a miniature rainbow illuminating the whole swamp.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Mu Xin behind Mo came with a gentle admiration, not only her, but everyone was in disbelief when they saw it, especially Eugene, whose eyes were about to fall. Even Ogu, who usually doesn't talk much, can already see it at this time!
"First, don't get close yet, let's see the situation first!" Mo quickly adjusted himself, although he was a little shocked by this beautiful scenery, it was better not to be alarmed by this highly poisonous creature.
"It seems that this blood clotting wow should have another name..."At this time, Lynn seemed more sober, Mo looked back at him, only to see a different light in his eyes.
"How?" Mur didn't understand what he meant.
"On the continent of Loland, there is a creature that our elves call the "rainbow of silt", and I have heard about this creature at the elven sacrifice. ”
Saying that, everyone looked at each other here, and it was indeed very similar to the scene in front of them.
"I vaguely remember the words of the sacrifices, who said that this creature was extremely rare, and that the colors of both male and female were green and red, and they were extremely gorgeous. It is rumored that when they find a mate, they will use the magic patterns in their bodies to secrete a magical substance that can exchange pheromones for each other outside of the body, and the form is just like what we see now. ”
