In the end, Li Yang was beaten up by his sister-in-law "Fresh Lotus".

Unexpectedly, neither Mo Shang Pear Blossom nor Peach Blossom girls had the intention of pulling lotus flowers.

I touched my head, and it seemed to hurt a little!

This group of inhuman guys, don't you know how to tap your hands, as the saying goes, a gentleman doesn't use his hands......

After returning to the Dark City, Li Yang opened the daily mission system, and today's dueling arena mission has been completed, and the three death missions don't seem to be very suitable.

Looking at the list of side quests, Li Yang decided to take a look at the Dragonman Tower in the Valley of the Evil Dragons.

[Side Quest: Investigate the Dragonman's Tower.]

Receiving grade: LV25

Reward: 250 XP]

……

Half an hour later, Li Yang had already arrived in the Evil Dragon Valley.

Although the place name here is very awesome, it's just some LV26-LV28 ordinary monsters, and there is only one dark gold boss, which has been killed and has not yet been refreshed.

[System Prompt: You have stepped into the range of the Dragonman's Tower]

At the end of the Valley of the Dragons, there is a dark swamp, and in the middle of the swamp is a silver-white tower, with a range of at least 200 meters in length, which can be said to be quite a tower, of course—there is still a little gap with the Dark Tower!

[Hint: The Black Swamp is neither documented nor explored.] Bordered by Morrowind to the north, the Black Marsh is in the deepest part of the Valley of the Dragons, home to the Dragonmen and one of the most uninhabitable places on the continent. Its sticky mud is home to predatory insects, poisonous plants, and even diseases, and is where all the decaying and decaying flows in, and is also known as the "garbage heap of the Misty Valley." However, for those who are tenacious enough to survive here, the Black Swamp is not without a dangerous and alluring beauty.

Not much is known about the reptilian inhabitants of the Black Swamp, and even less so is understood. Over the years, the dragonmen have honed their skills in guerrilla warfare to defend their territory, and their natural abilities have allowed them to move underwater with ease.

The dragonmen have adapted well to the treacherous conditions of their native swamps, and have developed a natural resistance to disease and toxins that have killed countless would-be visitors. Dragons are generally more introverted, less likely to trust others, and not easily understood. However, dragonmen are also very loyal, and once they see someone as a friend, they can fight to the death for their friend.

While dragonmen may appear reptilian at first glance, they also have fish and amphibian abilities: they can breathe underwater through the gills behind their ears, and they can swim like tadpoles and eels by waging their tails back and forth.

Dragonmen's appearance ranges from human-like to reptile-looking, with variations caused by the special sap ingested by dragonmen shortly after birth during naming day ceremonies.

The history of the dragonmen is overshadowed by many mysteries and in general is not clear. Before humans and elven races came to disturb them, the Dragonmen were an out-and-out isolationist bunch. Their activities were unknown until a thousand years ago, when a group of Azma-cursed half-demons wanted to use the Valley of the Evil Dragon as a base to attack the Dark City, and the Black Swamp became their target.

In response to the attacking Half-Demons, the Dark City garrison invaded the Black Swamp in an attempt to put an end to their misdeeds—as simple as it sounded, they had no idea that the highly organized Dragonmen were secretly wreaking havoc on them. Although the garrison had no intention of harming the dragonmen, the dragonmen regarded all outsiders and others as malicious intruders. It's hard to blame them, after all, the only humans the dragons have ever seen at the time were half-demons who wanted to kill them. The garrison clearly felt unwelcome in the Black Swamp, so they ran back as they could.

By the time the Holy War was over, the Half-Demons had been wiped out, and the Dragonmen had been defeated by the garrison at the Battle of the Black Marsh. As a result, the Dark City incorporated the Black Swamp into its jurisdiction.

However, even with the jurisdiction of the Empire, the wild nature of the Black Swamp is difficult to tame, and the actual rule of the Empire extends only to the outskirts of the swamp. Even for the Empire, going deep into the Black Swamp was a suicidal move.

Imperial rule over parts of the Black Swamp lasted for hundreds of years, until a mysterious and terrifying flu broke out locally, killing essentially all races except the Dragonmen. The Black Swamp is now back in the hands of the dragonmen, and the true cause of the flu remains a mystery to this day.

After the flu, the dragonmen were finally able to enjoy a peaceful time of isolation again, but it didn't last long.

If we know anything about empires, it's only one thing: peaceful coexistence has never been the way of empires.

The troops of the Imperial Vanguard managed to enter the Black Swamp, and it would be an exaggeration to say that the Empire conquered the Black Swamp; The Vanguard did gain some territory, but he was also a great strategist and knew what it meant to actually go deep into the Black Swamp to fight the Dragonmen. Even if you have the support of a large army behind you, facing the dragonmen in that situation is a dead end. So the commander of the vanguard army decided to bypass this path and not advance into the swamp, so he did not encounter much resistance from the dragonmen.

However, just as the dragonmen's territory is getting less and less—

A sudden disaster has struck, and no one knows why!

The imperial humans and dragonmen in the black swamp seem to have disappeared in an instant, and those who step into the black swamp will mysteriously disappear without a trace once they reach the most central position.

It wasn't until a hundred years ago that a mysterious structure was finally revealed in the Black Swamp, a huge silver-white tower hundreds of meters high.

Unheeded adventurers have stepped into the Black Swamp in an attempt to find out the treasures and secrets of the tower.

However, when they approached the tower, they were absorbed by a huge force and never reappeared.

Because of this, the Black Swamp has become a forbidden place for the Empire! 】

Was it one of the forbidden places of the Empire?

It doesn't look like such a good level......

[Mo Shang Pear Blossom, have you been to the Dragonman Tower? ——Li Yang

Ignorant of the map in front of him, Li Yang felt that it was time to gather information.

[Li Yang, are you going to the Tower of Dragonmen? ——Mo on the pear blossom

[Yes!] 】

[This...... Actually, we tried, but before we could get close to the Dragonman's Tower, we were already dead! ——Mo on the pear blossom

[Oh? What is the reason? 】

[There has always been a DEBUFF on the body, after stepping into the black swamp, it will drop 200HP per second, but this is not the most deadly, as soon as you get close to the tower of the dragonman, there will be a flash of white light, and then you will be killed in seconds! ——Mo on the pear blossom

[Thank you, I already know!] 】

If you don't learn a lesson from death once, it's not the style of Moshang Rika.

Until the truth of the Dragonman Tower is discovered, it is impossible for the guild to venture again.

[Li Yang, don't take risks! ——Mo Shang Lihua reminded

[Well, I won't do anything stupid!] 】

Li Yang replied to the private message and laughed at himself: "It's weird! ”
