Chapter 106: Into the Swamp
Unable to withstand Palak's courtesy, Princess Elenia still decided to take a break at the Duke of Sheffield's palace before going on the road, after all, what she had to pass in front of her was a place called the Heavenly Swamp, the entire swamp was more than ten kilometers, and there was no supply in and out, so it was not impossible to detour, but if you detoured, the surroundings were basically all in favor of the eldest prince Monshua, and compared to this risk, Elenia obviously preferred to walk through the swamp.

In the Duke's Palace, the group was excellently replenished, as a member of the entourage at the bottom, Cecil was entertained with smoked chicken ham and white bread, and the duke even gave no one a reward of 100 gold coins. Cecil felt that he was not too diligent, and Cecil and the others did not dare to eat what Parak gave him, and waited until the sacrifice of the Temple of Life confirmed that there was no problem, and then everyone began to feast, eating and drinking.
After a full meal, the group rested for another night. The next morning, from the Duke's Palace, Palak came out to see them off in person, and sent a few people who were familiar with the terrain to act as guides to lead everyone through the Celestial Swamp.
The entire Celestial Swamp is a large swamp area, and it is also one of the places where wild monsters haunt the entire Lovalan Continent, and this is also one of the ideal areas in the plan when Cecil was preparing to travel to the continent to kill monsters and level up. There are very powerful species and monsters here, compared to the primary scene of the Chengguang Forest, the Heavenly Swamp is definitely not a joke, all kinds of dragonflies and lizards infested this big swamp, and there are even legends that there may be legendary hydras in the depths of the swamp, that kind of thing even a legendary-level powerhouse would never dare to provoke.
Of course, this kind of creature only exists in legends, and in reality, there are not many people who operate in the Heavenly Swamp for their livelihood, and there are also many strong people who come here to kill swamp creatures to train themselves, and no one really sees this legendary creature. And even if there were such creatures in the depths of the swamp, the marching team would not be worried, they would only need to travel along the edge of the swamp and not really come into contact with such monsters.
The group entered the swamp quite smoothly, and the people in front of them were nothing more than some low-level demon wolves and lizards, which might be a little difficult for ordinary trialists, but for this elite team, there was really no difficulty at all. This kind of average level below level 60 is also blamed on the second goods in front of this team.
Gradually, the marching team came to a distance of 3 kilometers, and suddenly found that it was a low bush, and the only road was full of mud, which was not strange in the swamp, but strangely, there was no trace of wild monsters here. Not to mention the kind of wild monster that I encountered just now that can be cleaned up by hand, even a fly can't even be seen, and the breath of death is shown in front of it.
The Holy Order Priest George in the group ordered the team to stop and sent scouts to probe ahead. And they used the specialized skills of the Temple of Life to sense if there were any beings around them that could pose a threat to them.
Cecil also took the opportunity to take a rest, and suddenly heard a voice in his ears: "Master, you are poisoned." ”
Cecil was suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked his demon pet, "Are we poisoned there?" How did you notice it, why didn't you feel the transfer sacrifice of the Temple of Life? ”
"Those sacrifices usually only know behind closed doors, where is the technology of using poison in real combat as simple as they imagined, from the time you dined in the Duke's Palace, you were calculated." Elise said lazily.
Cecil was surprised: "There is nothing wrong with the meal in the Duke's Palace, you said that the personnel of the Temple of Life have no actual combat experience, but their technology in detecting poison is beyond doubt." ”
Elise sneered: "The technique is indeed good, but it's just a little stupid, who would do such a non-standard thing as direct poisoning." Of course, it is to put some seeds of mandala flowers in the meal first, and then cooperate with the purple wood stem here to have the effect of poisoning, master, don't you think that your physical strength is lost quickly? It seems that you have a very high resistance to magic, but you have no resistance to poison. ”
After Elis's reminder, Cecil also felt that his loss of physical strength seemed to be much happier than usual, and he was shocked. But Elise came to comfort him at this time: "But the master doesn't need to be too alarmed, this kind of poison emphasizes that the enemy is poisoned unconsciously, so the toxicity is not strong, for example, the one you are in now, except for the acceleration of your physical strength, there are no other side effects." ”
Cecil looked at the template, and sure enough, he didn't feel really uncomfortable about him. He gave a big sigh: "In that case, then what is that little duke doing with so much effort to do this kind of thing?" ”
"Who knows, but usually this kind of thing has a backhand, and reducing your physical strength is generally to assassinate you." Elise was still lazy.
Before he could finish speaking, Cecil felt hundreds of green eyes staring at them in the bushes around him. The sense of oppression of this aura became more and more obvious, Cecil felt it, and many other people naturally felt it, especially the Grand Knight of Osmond, who had been born and died in actual combat several times, and he had an instinctive and keen reaction to danger.
He immediately ordered everyone to be vigilant, but he immediately felt that his physical strength was losing faster than usual, in fact, it had reached the level of a legend, and he usually did not lose much physical strength, and the effect of this poison on his body was even more minimal. But he still sensed with his keen sense that the speed of his physical loss was wrong.
"Everyone should be vigilant and pay attention to their physical condition."
Before the great knight's words landed, there was a heart-stopping wolf howl in the bushes, followed by the front and back, left and right, up and down the whole line.
As soon as Cecil heard this voice, he knew that this wolf breed was the fierce night wolf he had encountered in the Chengguang Forest. He is relieved and suspicious, relieved because this breed is only a kind of wild monster above level 25, with the quality of his own team, this kind of wolf is not a problem at all, the fox is suspicious that this kind of thing itself is a wild monster that appears in the woods, and it is not a species that should be in the swamp of the heavenly domain at all, and suddenly appeared in this place, it must be driven by the person who domesticated him, so why did this domesticator behind the scenes do this, and what is the purpose?
