Chapter 244: The Inside Story of the Competition

Although it was already getting dark when the convoy was packed, the bearded man still insisted on setting off immediately. www.biquge.info The clouds on the swamp have already become so thick that it will be a cold winter rain until the night, and the convoy will not be able to camp in the unobstructed swamp, nor can it build the building materials for a temporary camp in the base camp, so it can only bite the bullet and hit the road, hoping to compete with God for time.

"Hey, this is a piece of grass, huh? It's so big! Nie Xiaoyang walked on the side of the team, identifying the plants on the side of the road from time to time.

The "grass" that Xiao Yang pointed to was more than one person tall, and three or five blades of grass were swaying, but he couldn't tell what kind of plant it was. As far as the eye can see, there are such unusually tall grasses all around, and there are few trees with distinct branches, but everyone is reflected as if they have strayed into the land of giants.

"Rare and strange," the half-squinted bearded man on the head car turned his head and said, "The craziest things in the swamp are ferns and fungi, and it's normal to have a mushroom as tall as a person, and you haven't seen a stone pine taller than the old cedar tree in Golden Feather City, right?" ”

The base camp square had been cleared of plants in advance, and the sky was so dark that the teenagers did not realize for a moment that they were surrounded not by trees, but by clumps of ferns and giant mushrooms. At this time, the close encounter with these never-before-seen wonders made the six teenagers amazed.

"Uncle Zhong, looking at your familiar appearance, have you been on a mission in the south?" Jia Xiao asked loudly.

"We've been here a few times, but we've been on the periphery, not so deeply." It was the milky white little Ailu who was standing on the uncle's shoulder.

The leader's name is Zhong Dinghui, and he is the backbone hunter of the South Acropolis Iron Heart Hunting Group, and the trainees exchanged names with him after the riots, which can be regarded as a recognition of the three-star hunters. Ai Lu standing on the uncle's shoulder is his entourage "Black Carbon", the name of the orc does not match the color of the coat, and the teenagers are taken by the prestige of the leader, but it is not good to laugh along the way.

There were not enough Marutori to pack the goods, so the trainees could only load the carts allocated to them with goods, and six people followed on foot on the right flank of the convoy. Fortunately, after the commotion just now, the driver slowed down intentionally or unintentionally, lest Marutori, who had just woken up from the shock, do something out of the ordinary and make it easier for the trainees in the valley to follow.

"Is there any doorway in this swamp?" Jia Xiao asked sideways.

"It seems that none of your instructors have let you do your homework," said the bearded man, smirkingly, "and the 'swamp' itself is the greatest danger." ”

"What's ...... this" Nie Xiaoyang didn't know why, and suddenly remembered something, "Dust boy has been reading books about hunting ground information these days, do you think about it, have you ever seen a record of the swamp?" ”

"Yes." Little Orion nodded, and said with a different expression, "The book says that this is a dangerous place similar to the Thundering Sand Sea, and it is depicted as a demon who eats people and does not spit out bones, but I think the scenery is not bad." ”

The swamp itself is full of traps, and the ground soaked in muddy water is so soft that ordinary people can easily sink into the mud when they walk on it. The heavy muddy water was like a magic barrier, and the more you rolled and struggled in between, the deeper it sank. Before that, countless hunters and sages wanted to explore and develop this place, but a considerable part of them were killed by the ubiquitous man-eating traps before they could see the true face of the swamp, not to mention the poisonous miasma and all kinds of poisonous insects and poisonous snakes that were naturally bred by the rotten swamp. On this day, the clouds are angry, and the strange landscape is full of strange trees, but it has the dangerous nature of killing people everywhere, and people can't help but be wary.

"Is it so scary?" Nie Xiaoyang raised one foot, but he didn't dare to put it down, he looked at the small clearing under his feet, but he couldn't tell whether it was solid ground or devouring soil.

"Afraid of what?" Jia Xiao walked forward generously, "Uncle Zhong and so many trucks dare to walk in front, of course there is no problem along the way." ”

"This is not yet the core area of the Swamp, but the outer swamp with relatively solid geology." "None of us will be in the dangerous core today, so you little devils can rest assured. ”

"Fleet ...... Where to set up camp? Shentu Miaoling had been more silent than usual since she got off the boat, but at this moment, she suddenly opened her mouth and asked a question that everyone was concerned about.

"Camp Seven is an outpost observatory, and we need to go as far as possible to the front of the core area to play a more role." "When the ground is softer than it is now," said the bearded man, "and the ruts will sink to two fingers deep, we will set up camp." ”

The girl said no more, but pursed her lips, looking worried.

"What's wrong?" Xiaoyang asked.

"It's nothing, I just remembered the trainee just now, his tibia was broken by the steel pipe, and he was about to retire before the game started, and I don't know how much impact it had on his hunter career." The girl's eyes dodged.

"yes, that's the Hunter." The boy didn't notice it, and sighed softly, "I don't know when we will fall on the way to hunt - fortunately, none of us were injured in the commotion just now, and it seems that our luck is good." ”

"You're lucky, I'm on strength!" Xiong Buji interjected, "Anyway, most of the 300 competition points are earned by my ability." ”

"Then what's there to be proud of, you still haven't got your score." Xiao Yang retorted, "Have you heard that the mysterious aristocratic squad that was rumored in the Entering the Indian Festival, one team protected four convoys unharmed, and even the Marutori who belonged to it was not shocked. Because there was no captain to intervene, it was directly counted as an emergency entrustment, and more than 200 points were recorded. If you have the ability to stop that crane truck alone, if you can do it, I'll give you my score right now. ”

"Forget it," Feng Chen smiled, "Don't say that Xiao Yang doesn't have any points on him now, even if he has points, the trainees can't exchange them at will, he's just provoking you to play." ”

Xiong Fuji's expression was grim, and he said knowingly: "That crane truck weighs thousands of kilograms, and it is difficult for me to compete with dozens of them." That thing shouldn't be in the hunting grounds, is the Hunters' Guild going to wage a war in the Swamp? ”

"No, I've heard something." Captain Zhong, who was driving the lead car, said in a low voice, "This time the commission of the challenge festival seems to be to excavate something in this swamp, and some people say that the commission target is the corpse of a rare dragon species, which is why such a large lifting machine is used." ”

Talking about the rumors of the core mission, the trainees and the surrounding one-star hunters all pricked up their ears.

"The dragon's corpse rotted in two days in the swamp, and it was just a white bone when it was dug up, right?" Lu Xiu smacked his lips, after the characteristics of the young man's dragon clan were revealed, the rumors about dragons could especially attract his attention.

"Have you never been exposed to high-level monster materials?" The bearded man was fascinated, "The materials of the giant high-ranking dragon species are extremely rare and precious, and each one of them is a priceless treasure that can not be found. Even if it was just a complete skeleton, it was a supreme treasure for the entire Hunters' Guild. ”

"Just for the sake of a skeleton, do you need to use more than 500 hunters, dozens of airships, countless supplies and support to search?" Feng Chen was a little sneering in his heart, "This deal is not worth it." (To be continued.) )
