When Sison's skeletal army crossed the Misty Swamp, their numbers plummeted to half.
The Misty Swamp is a trench between the Skull Territory and the Zombie Realm, and except for creatures such as the flying Bone Dragon Lich, even the Skeleton Lord cannot travel alone.
The Misty Swamp was very quiet, and the corrosive mist that permeated the sky above it, the source of the poisonous miasma was the swamp, and from time to time bubbles appeared, floating above the sleep, and the ground exploded, and a cloud of smoke was released from the blister, merging with the mist of the Forsaken Land.
Ancient corpses were precipitated in the black mud, with huge bone dragon bones and fragmented skeletons, and the silence seemed to be as if there were no living creatures.
But if contempt is generated, it will be fatal.
In the quagmire live terrifying kappa, cute little monsters the size of human babies, with big eyes, long hands and long legs, dragging everything that comes close to the surface of the water into the swamp.
Kappa need to eat, and the swamp is far from sufficient, they feel hungry all the time, and when there is no food they eat dry bones, or their own kind, or their own limbs.
These little creatures are not big, but they are ferocious, they are extremely powerful in the water, and their weakness is that they cannot go ashore, just like a fish that will die of lack of oxygen when they leave the water, and a kappa will begin to dry up and be unable to move after a few minutes of exposure to the air, but it is not death, and they will come back to life if they are thrown into the water again.
On top of that, their most disgusting ability is super-fast regeneration, which can regrow after cutting off their hands and feet, only to regrow them in a few days.
The way to kill kappa is to break their heads.
The undisturbed misty swamp is beautiful, there is a lot of green light in the mist, they shuttle on the surface of the water, unpredictable, often in the shape of human face skulls, these are not living creatures, just some phosphorus fire jumps, affected by the energy in the swamp, produce different patterns.
Xia Yi looked at the temporarily quiet misty swamp and felt worried, instinctively telling her not to approach the water.
Commanding his subordinates and retreating a few steps to the middle of the skeleton team, Xia Yi didn't care about the life and death of the other skeletons, but he cherished his servants very much.
At the front of the sea of skeletons, Xisen commanded a gray skeleton to slowly approach the quagmire, the gray skeleton did not even have the emotion of fear, they would only obey their master's orders and lie down in the water.
The muddy water submerged the gray matter skeleton's knees, and after a second of silence, there was a ripple at the bottom of the water, and a paw came out of the water, grabbed the gray matter skeleton's legs, and instantly dragged it into the swamp, and the gray matter skeleton didn't even have time to struggle!
The water splashed a few times, then regained its composure, as if nothing had happened.
Xia Yi poked his little head out of the minion's body and happened to see this scene.
"Oh my God......"
"Lord Akalan, no skeleton can pass through the Misty Swamp, not even the Great Lord......"
When Sison saw the gray skeleton that disappeared into the quagmire, he was also frightened, how could his silver skeleton body withstand a few tears from the kappa?
"Shut up Sison, don't use your elm head to measure the strength of the Great Lord!"
The Great Lich Akalan pondered for a moment, on the map treasured by the Great Lord, the Misty Swamp was vast, but at the edge of Xisen's territory, that is, it was the narrowest part of the Misty Swamp, like a strait, and it was estimated that it was only about a mile away.
That's why the lord Sissen was chosen for what to do.
As a flying lich, he could easily cross the misty swamps, and those disgusting kappa couldn't reach him, but not skeletons, they had no wings, and they couldn't fly.
If it weren't for the fact that these skeletons would have come in handy, Akalan wouldn't have gathered this group of people who were in the way!
Akalan has a powerful frost power, if he freezes the swamp with all his might, he can indeed open up a way, but he is not reconciled, his demonic power only serves the great great lord, how can he open the way for low-level skeletons? It's just an insult!
These questions are difficult for the wise man Akalan.
When traveling on the mainland, Akaran had seen different demonic beasts, but there was only one kind of demonic beast that made him awe-inspiring, the first-level demonic beast, the blood ant.
This weak blood ant is only a first-level demonic beast, and its only ability is to spray out acidic venom and attack the enemy, and the strength of a blood ant is not even as good as that of a vole, fortunately they are social demonic beasts, and the overwhelming blood ants can nibble away at a large sixth-level demonic beast.
When Acalan saw the thumb-sized blood ants for the first time in the rainforest, his only emotion was that they were tempting, the thumb-sized blood ants were red, like boiled crabs, he tried to taste one, the taste was very good, fat and juicy, and the fishy smell had a special freshness and sweetness.
What made Acalan fall in love with this little creature was that Acalan forgot to extinguish the campfire in the middle of the rainforest, causing a small fire, which happened to burn a blood ant nest, and the poor blood ants were roasted to a sizzling sound, just when Acalan thought that the nest would be burned to the ground, a miracle happened.
All the blood ants ran out of the nest, the largest one was the Ant Emperor as the center, and all the blood ants crawled into a ball, like a snowball, and the blood ants became a three-foot ball! The ball rolled and rolled through the flames!
Akaran was stunned, the perimeter of the ant ball was crackling like popcorn, but the blood ants inside were well protected!
The ant balls crossed the sea of fire and rolled down into the river, and the outer blood ants were swept away by the rushing river, and the remaining blood ants floated across the river and made their nests on the other side of the river.
The Blood Ant Legion, which should have been wiped out, lost less than one-fifth!
"Sisson, order all skeletons to advance! Gray matter skeletons go first! "Akalan ordered, he wanted to pave the way with low-level gray matter skeletons and build bridges for high-level skeletons!
Lord Sissen was terrified, thinking that Acalan was going to send his skeleton to his death! Xisen doesn't pity the skeletons in his territory, and he doesn't care about the life and death of the skeletons, he is just worried that the skeletons in his territory will die and he will become a bare-rod lord!
"Lord Akalan, you can't do this to me...... I'm loyal to you, you can't do that......"
"Shut up, idiot! Do as I say, or I'll drain your soul and light the sky lantern! ”
The Great Lich wasn't interested in explaining it to a low-level skeleton.
Sisson was frightened and silent, he heard that the fuel used by Acalan to illuminate the territory was the soul fire of skeletons! This kind of punishment is extremely vicious, burning soul energy for lighting, the key is to use it as fuel, you can't die yet, you can only endure the pain every day, and the burning from the soul fire is no worse than contract punishment!
Maggie, who had been honest for a few days, spoke cautiously and said, "Do as Lord Akalan says, your lord must have a point." ”
After being punished by Akalan, Maggie no longer dared to pester the Great Lich. The most taboo thing for mages is that someone is close to their fragile bodies, after becoming a lich, the heart is even more of a weakness, and giving Maggie two ice cubes is already merciful!
The wounded Maggie sensed Sison's anger, so she got honest, and the wound slowly healed, and today she felt that Sison's anger was gone, and advised as usual.
But it was precisely when it touched Sison's taboo that Maggie dared to speak to Akalan!
"Damn slut!"
Xisen's silver hand grabbed Maggie's throat, and the harpy knew that she was afraid, she began to panic and wanted to ask for mercy, but her throat was imprisoned by Xisen, and Maggie could only make a "gurgling" sound.
As the amount of Xisen's strength increased, Maggie's eyes bulged out, and she couldn't hold it anymore.
Sissen brought the harpy to his eyes, aimed at Maggie's lips, and leaned over, this should be the first kiss of Sissen after Maggie became the lord's wife, but unfortunately this is not an expression of love, but a kiss of death.
A fresh soul fire emerges from Maggie's mouth and is swallowed by Sison in one gulp.
This is the law of the undead, there is no emotion, it is not the enemy, it is food.
Sisson threw away the limp corpse in his hand, and the harpy's body shrank like a leaking balloon, quickly drying and flattening, and shrunk into a fist-sized red crystal, bloodstone.
All harpies turn into a bloodstone when they die, unless there are no bones left.
Shay was outraged and saddened to see Sisson kill the lady of the lord who devoured her, she showed no pity for the harpy, it was her stupidity and greed that had buried her, but she was saddened and feared by the laws of the Forsaken Lands.
She suddenly longed to leave this bloody and vicious place, to leave the cruel and cold abandoned place.
"It would be nice if Mondo was here."
Xia Yi misses Mondo, if Mondo is there, he will definitely smile and comfort her, hug her in his arms, let her lean on her chest, and comfort her not to be afraid, Xia Yi seems to see that immature and mature smile.
The Great Lich watched Sison execute the Harpy with a cold eye, unmoved, the only thing that annoyed him was that Sissen was delaying his time!
"Let's go, across the swamp!"
Sissen ordered with the power of the lord's soul!
