Chapter Twenty-Five: The Swamp
In the forest on the outskirts of the imperial capital, a figure walked quickly through the trees.
"You can't run in the direction of headquarters, you'll expose everyone."
Leonay's footsteps stopped, and the two beast's ears twitched, and they recognized their orientation and ran towards the swamp deep in the forest.
"Kind, come along, you monster."
Leonay gritted her silver teeth, she had been running for two hours, but the sense of threat was still there.
Two minutes after Leonai ran away, Su Xiao arrived at the location where Leonai had been before.
He could only roughly perceive the direction of Leonay, who fled in a hurry and didn't have time to cover his tracks.
From the footprints and broken branches, you can judge the specific location of the other party.
After confirming Leonai's escape location, Su Xiao quickly followed, he already knew that the enemy had discovered him, and now the two of them were the relationship between the prey and the hunter.
The end result depends on whether the prey is cunning or the hunter is more sophisticated.
Gradually moving forward, Su Xiao felt that the air became humid, and the smell of rotting vegetation in the forest was strong.
With a soft foot, Su Xiao stepped into a quagmire.
"It's ...... Marshland? ”
Pulling his leg out of the mire, he walked cautiously.
The swamp is a very dangerous place, the general mud swamp is fine, even if he accidentally falls into it, there is a way to get out, but if it is a muddy swamp, it is dangerous.
That kind of swamp can swallow people in no more than five seconds, and the more fierce the struggle, the faster they will die, because the water is mixed with a lot of mud, and swimming in the muddy swamp to survive is also delusional.
No matter how skilled the survival master, he will give himself a knife after falling into the muddy swamp to avoid the pain of suffocation.
Some people will wonder why they go up to it when they know it's a swamp.
The swamp is not dangerous if it can be seen with the naked eye, and most swamps have a layer of dry soil on the surface, which is formed by the sun drying the surface of the swamp.
Sometimes the wind blows leaves onto the swamp, creating a natural trap.
Su Xiao cut off a five- or six-meter-long branch from the tree, which was about the thickness of an arm.
Holding the branch in one hand, Su Xiao ignored the swamp.
If you're traveling through a swamp, the best way to do this is to find a long branch so that you can grab a point of force even if you fall into the swamp and break free from the swamp.
Although it is hilarious to hold a knife in his right hand and a long branch in his left hand, it is nothing compared to life and death.
There was another softness under his feet, and Su Xiao fell into a muddy swamp with one leg.
After stepping into the swamp, Su Xiao clearly felt the suction of the mud in the swamp.
The dragon slashing flash into the ground, Su Xiao leaned and pulled his leg out of the swamp, but his shoes remained in the swamp forever, and his right leg was covered with mud.
Su Xiao's face darkened, and the battlefield chosen by the enemy was a bit of a trick.
"Don't catch me, or I'll throw you into the swamp and drown."
Continue to track the enemy's tracks, and after about half an hour, a row of mud footprints comes into view.
The enemy also fell into the swamp, depending on the situation or the whole fall.
Su Xiao was secretly refreshed in his heart, and secretly said that you also have today.
After leaving a row of single mud footprints, Su Xiao's feet were soft again.
With a pop, half of Su Xiao's body fell into the swamp, still a mud swamp.
"Holy."
A minute later, Su Xiao struggled out of the swamp, his face turned pale, and this time he would have left two muddy footprints behind.
The tracking continued, and ten minutes later, a red flare was fired from a short distance ahead.
Rumble.
The red flare exploded, leaving a cloud of red dust in the air.
"Asking for help."
Su Xiao hurried to the direction where the flare was fired, and two minutes later he saw the enemy, but he couldn't see the enemy's appearance clearly, the enemy was covered in mud from head to toe.
"Did I kill your relatives or friends?"
After meeting, Leonay asked directly.
"Not really."
Su Xiao threw away the wooden stick in his hand, if he dealt with it carefully, Leonai would not be able to make any waves, and he restrained Leonay's hand-to-hand combat type.
Leona clenched his fangs, which were the sharp teeth that appeared after the beastification.
"Since I didn't kill your relatives and friends, then why did you chase me so hard, you ran around the imperial capital twice, hundreds of kilometers away, is it just because I peeked at you?"
Leonai's pair of fluffy claws clicked, her identity was not exposed in the imperial capital, and Su Xiao didn't recognize her.
"Leonai, the main member of the 'Night Raid', the emperor is the 'Lion King of the Beasts', born in a slum, he made a living by stealing when he was a child, he worshipped the old monk of the 'Imperial Fist Temple' as a teacher at the age of fourteen, obtained the emperor at the age of sixteen, joined the revolutionary army at the age of seventeen, and became a member of the 'Night Raid' through selection at the age of eighteen."
A smile appeared on the corner of Su Xiao's mouth.
"What else do you want to know?"
Leonai looked at Su Xiao blankly, and she didn't remember some of the information herself.
Before Su Xiao entered the world of slashing red, he checked all the information he had compiled before, not to mention these information, even if Leonai's three measurements were clear.
"In this case, you will have to live and die."
Leonay wiped the muddy water from her face. The eyes are like those of an enraged lioness.
"It's not that you live or die, it's that you must die, hey~, I can finally speak freely."
Su Xiao has been choking enough in the past two days, although he is not a talker, but after pretending to be in the dark, the most he can say is 'um', 'good', and 'got it'.
After some catharsis, Su Xiao stopped talking, and the light blue arc clinged to the surface of the dragon slaying flash.
After strengthening the Dragon Slaying Flash, he hadn't fought to the death, Estes didn't go all out that time, and the giant wolf only stabbed out twice, and these two times didn't show the sharpness of the Dragon Slaying Flash at all.
The blade of the knife groaned, Su Xiao stepped on the ground under his feet, the dead leaves on the ground splashed, and in less than two seconds, he had already appeared in front of Leonai.
Su Xiao's agility attribute is 24 points, this speed is not fast in the eyes of Leonai after beastification, but Su Xiao does not rely on speed and strength to deal with strong enemies, he is better at fighting with skills + swordsmanship, and strength and agility attributes are the foundation.
The long knife broke through the air, and the blue light flowed through, and Leonai subconsciously met the long knife with her claws, which was her usual way.
After the beast, Leonay's claws are very hard, and even some imperial tools can't break the defense.
A whimpering sound was heard as the air was broken, and the sharp edge of the dragon-slaying flash seemed to tear through the air.
As Claw Heart and Dragon Slayer Flash were about to make contact, Leonai felt a tingling pain in Claw Heart.
The beast instinctively told her that if she continued, she might lose this furry claw.
But at this time, it was too late to retreat, and Leonai could only defend himself.
The blade of the dragon slayer touched the center of Leonay's claws, and the two touched, and the hardened membrane at the center of Leonai's claws was instantly cut.
Poof.
A flush of blood floated through the air, and half of a hairy claw stood out in the blood.
With a click, half a claw landed on the ground, and Leonay took a few steps back with his severed palm.
"How could it be...... So sharp. ”
Click, click.
Blood dripped on the dead leaves, and the forest was silent.
