Chapter 144: Out of the Swamp
"Click!" The sound of the crocodile's gums colliding up and down echoed in Armand's ears, and Armand felt a tremor at the thought of the huge mouth less than ten centimeters from the tip of his nose. Of course, even a distance of 10 centimeters meant that the crocodile would never want to bite Armand's nose, because by the time Armand was pulled back, Murdos had already pierced three piercing eyes in his head with a three-barreled musket.
There is no doubt that the dwarves' muskets are definitely a weapon to shoot these crocodiles, although it is difficult for the dwarves to fire two shots in a short period of time due to the problem of reloading, but as long as they hit the crocodile, it is definitely a big hole. Of course, with the strong vitality of crocodiles, as long as their heads are not blasted open with a big hole, then they will definitely not die in a short time. You must know that even if there is a large hole in the body with the thickness of the bowl, these crocodiles can run wild on the aquatic grass like flying, and then pounce on the target to attack.
For Chen Kai and them, this kind of strong vitality of crocodiles is definitely not a good thing, although they have killed the same number of crocodiles as they are now, but that is when the body is abundant, not the current situation when the body's magic power and fighting energy are about to be exhausted.
Fortunately, the number of crocodiles is not particularly large, dozens of crocodiles Chen Kai can still eat, although after a period of fighting, everyone, especially the people in front, are more or less injured, but these injuries are a matter of minutes for players. No matter how severe a muscle tear is, it only takes a few hours of treatment to become like new.
But at this moment, the group didn't have much attention to treat the crocodiles after they turned over them, because they found that when they were fighting the crocodiles, the huge number of piranhas had reduced the entire aquatic weed pile by nearly one-third. At this moment, the piranha is extremely terrifying, even if it is an ice cube, it will bite a few bites and then become a corpse and float on the water, if no one manipulates this situation, then Chen Kai can gouge out his eyes and throw them on the ground.
"Quick! Throw all the crocodile carcasses into the water! Although his body was extremely tired, Chen Kai still tried hard to drag the body of a crocodile, which was more than five meters long and weighed more than a ton. Therefore, it was very difficult for Chen Kai to throw the crocodile into the water independently, and the others immediately understood the reason why he did this when they heard Chen Kai's words.
There is no doubt that piranhas will never mind whether the food on their recipes is human or crocodile, so using crocodile carcasses as food can definitely temporarily keep these piranhas from eating aquatic plants. So even if the body was tired, the group still tried to throw the crocodile carcass that was still making a sound into the water. This process is very dangerous, even if Chen Kai and they have been prompted by experience points, some crocodiles have not completely died, at least some parts of the body still have the ability to reflex. For example, the mouth and other parts, under reflex conditions, even the large mouths of these crocodiles can open and bite the target.
So Chen Kai was very careful when carrying these corpses, but even so, Chen Kai still received a claw and a tail flick. The huge force slapped on his leg armor, and the clicking sound made Chen Kai wonder if his leg bone had been broken.
Fortunately, after a self-examination, Chen Kai only suffered a loss of nearly 1,000 HP points, plus a negative state of muscle tear and bone crack, and only the leg armor needed to be repaired. Almost at the moment when Chen Kai and the others pushed the corpse of a crocodile underwater, the originally intact crocodile corpse was instantly torn into countless pieces, even if the crocodile's skin was extremely tough, it still couldn't withstand the bite of hundreds of piranhas.
One by one, the crocodile carcasses disappeared into the water and grass piles. Chen Kai and the others had already connected the wagons dragged on the aquatic plants with ropes, and then the two poor wyverns once again acted as coolies pulling the terrible weight of the aquatic weeds. The poor wyvern tugged at the rope, the thick rope crunching in midair. It's a pity that the aquatic plants that grow in the water are full of water, and even if it is not particularly troublesome to move in the water, the heavy weight still makes the two wyverns gasp tiredly.
It's a pity that even the tired, half-dead huge water meadow has only moved less than 100 meters, and the only good news is that those piranhas did not follow, still gnawing on the corpses of those crocodiles from a hundred meters away. The carcasses of these crocodiles disappeared almost completely after a few minutes, and after eating a large number of aquatic plants and crocodiles and the corpses of their kind, the remaining piranhas gradually dissipated. Of course, Chen Kai knew very well that there were definitely many piranhas in the surrounding waters. It's just that for the time being, they don't have the strength to deal with these piranhas.
Although the two wyverns were exhausted, they did not stop flapping their wings and struggled towards the edge of the swamp. When the surrounding water was getting shallower and shallower, when a piece of ground that looked relatively dry appeared in view, the two wyverns that had flapped their wings for nearly an hour had completely lost their strength.
The wyvern who is included in the pet space does not have three or five days of rest, so he definitely doesn't want to wave his wings again. For Wyverns in their growing stages, a careless mistake can cause irreparable damage. Fortunately, the two wyverns had eaten a lot of good things since they were children, and when the wyverns fell into a deep sleep, Chen Kai and the others poured five drops of the fountain of life into each wyvern. The spring water full of vitality quickly moisturized the detached body, and gradually stabilized the breathing of the two wyverns as they slept.
When Chen Kai's feet stepped on the soft soil, the wet soil directly swallowed his two legs. A large amount of muddy water soon appeared in the place where Chen Kai had landed, filling up the footprints that Chen Kai had stepped on. When Chen Kai lifted his feet, the place where he originally landed directly became a small puddle, but even so, the down-to-earth feeling still made Chen Kai extremely comfortable. It's just that there is absolutely no way for a carriage to travel on this soft dirt. But the zodiac, which has never released a spell, can turn these dirt into slightly stronger paths with spells.
The swamp mud that would have turned into a puddle of water quickly turned into a solid path where the earthy yellow magic passed, and of course, all the magic of the zodiac was drained after only a short period of release. Although the magic power emitted by the mana pearl in the process of casting the spell directly reduced his spell mana consumption a little, when a dirt road of nearly 100 meters appeared under his feet, the mana in the mana pearl and the magic power in the ecliptic body were also consumed at the same time.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when all the wagons were pushed onto the dirt roads, and although they hadn't completely left the swamp, they were much safer on land than in the water. The most important thing is that they have reached the edge of the swamp, and even if they are delayed for a few days due to heavy rain, they have finally made it out of the swamp alive and have gained some unexpected benefits. Although the effect of the mana pearls was not as good as expected, these mana pearls were still able to enhance the combat power of several casters.
For Chen Kai, the only depressing place for them is probably the number of times these mana pearls are used. However, when he thought that these things were exchanged for some junk weapons and expired food, Chen Kai still felt mentally balanced. It's just that when they thought of being chased and killed by the fishmen afterwards, the group still felt that they had too few mana pearls. It's a pity that they don't have a chance to kill back to the swamp fish-man kingdom now, and even if they have this opportunity, the group is not very willing to go there, because the combat power of those fish-men is too strong, especially in the swamp environment. Chen Kai estimated that in the case of the same level, a swamp fishman can deal with at least three players of the same level, which is still an ordinary template swamp fishman.
Thinking of the combat power of those swamp fishmen with elite templates or even higher templates, Chen Kai felt a burst of happiness because they had not encountered such fishmen. If they have encountered it, it is estimated that the group has sunk in the swamp to feed the mermaids, of course, maybe Chen Kai and they have encountered it, but the kind of elite fishmen, but these elite fishmen have been killed by the freezing storm. However, no matter what the situation is, Chen Kai doesn't want to meet those fishmen in a short period of time, of course, although they don't want to meet the swamp fishmen, Chen Kai and they are still very merciful and posted the information of the swamp fishmen on the Internet.
"! Let's see if you have a day of rest in the future! Dare to attack you Uncle Fei! Fei Yun smiled darkly. He had already thought of the tens of thousands of players pouring into the wasteland swamp, and there was no doubt that the players would not care about the distance of the road when driven by enough profits. When the demigod relics began to slowly ferment among the players, Chen Kai and the others presented another swamp fishman kingdom, and they could also produce a swamp fishman kingdom that was very precious to the player's caster.
There is no doubt that Chen Kai's actions are definitely pouring a spoonful of oil on the already boiling Western Wilderness, making the originally crazy burning war fire rise high again. Originally, some players had just heard that there were demigods in the Western Wasteland, and they didn't think about entering the wasteland to find any demigod treasures, after all, those things were not something that ordinary players could get their hands on. However, an ordinary swamp fish-man kingdom actually has such a thing as mana pearls, and there are many of them, and the most important thing is that they can be exchanged for extremely rubbish spears and food. If there are no screenshots, there is no doubt that players don't believe it, but the screenshots are coupled with some videos recorded by Chen Kai and them that use fishmen as references, so the credibility instantly increased several times.
Players who had been watching around the Wild West began to pack up and get ready to go. Tens of thousands of players began to slowly make their way towards the wasteland, only to realize that they didn't seem to know the exact location of the swamp fishmen when they set out. But Chen Kai also did not provide the specific location of the swamp fishman, only the location of the wasteland swamp. Seeing the huge swamp on the map, all players instantly spit out a mouthful of old blood. Because the moor swamp is very large.
Finding the swamp fishman's nest without a map is definitely no better than finding a needle in a haystack. Don't look at Chen Kai, after they left the swamp fishman's nest, they only drove dozens of kilometers to get close to the edge of the swamp, but then Chen Kai also had to walk dozens of kilometers from the edge of the swamp to leave the swamp, that is to say, the place where the swamp fishman was located was at least nearly a hundred kilometers away from the edge of the wasteland swamp. If you add Chen Kai, the journey they traveled a few days ago. Then the location of the Fish-Man Swamp is definitely very deep in the entire Great Western Wilderness.
Therefore, in the absence of a map, it will take at least half a month for ordinary players, which is still a conservative estimate of good luck. If you're unlucky, you may not be able to find the fishman's nest for a month, so many players start scolding their mothers without finding the map.
At the time when a group of people swiped posts and scolded the fiercest. Chen Kai and the others just posted the map, of course, in the form of paid posts. As soon as they saw the price of the map, many players began to scold angrily again, because Chen Kai gave the map a price of 10 yuan. Although after the 10,000 copies of the map were sold, Chen Kai and their income was only 100,000 at most, and they had to pay taxes or something, and the money in their pockets was not very much. But it's also an income, as for why there are only 10,000 maps, because Chen Kai knows the urine of those players. Being able to sell 10,000 copies of the map is already quite a good thing. Because soon after, there were various posts on the Internet selling maps, with prices ranging from ten yuan to one piece, and these maps were basically modified from the maps sold by Chen Kai and them, and they were not even modified, and they were directly resold and labeled for sale and began to sell.
It is precisely because they have long expected this situation that Chen Kai and the others chose to hang 10,000 maps for sale, which can effectively reduce the online post management fee paid by Chen Kai. The recovered cash was quickly thrown into the project of purchasing nutrient solution and water and electricity bills and property management fees, and after dealing with these things, Chen Kai returned to the game world again, and the rickety carriage on the dirt road was slowly pushed out of a mud pit by the group. The splashed mud made everyone full of black sludge, and in order to get rid of the sludge, Chen Kai needed to use buckets to directly scoop up the fresh water from the swamp next to them and wash them on.
Although Chen Kai and the others hated the swamp very much, when they were about to leave the swamp, the group still collected a large amount of fresh water, after all, no one knew if there would be drinking difficulties in the next journey. Of course, all the fresh water was boiled. After all, Chen Kai and they don't want to drink unclean water and have diarrhea, and the feeling of diarrhea in the game is quite bad.
When the dripping water stains slowly fell on the ground, Chen Kai and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, although the surrounding roads were not smooth, they were better than the swamp environment. The most important thing is to look at the yellow grass and trees in the wasteland, and the group actually felt happy. Compared to the wet environment in the swamp, everyone still found the dry environment of the moor more comfortable.
As Chen Kai and the others set out on their way to the dry wasteland, in the wasteland behind them, tens of thousands of players were searching for Chen Kai and their tracks, driven by Balbat. There was no doubt that they all entered the wasteland from the direction of Yasu Town, so at this moment, they were still thousands of kilometers away from Chen Kai and them, and with the large army moving, it would take them even longer to catch up with Chen Kai.
It's just that because of the swamp, Chen Kai and the others were delayed for a few days, so the distance between Chen Kai and the player team commanded by Barbat began to be shortened. Although the distance is not particularly close. According to Barbat's movement speed, even if Chen Kai and the others stayed still, it would take three or four days to catch up. The most important thing is that Barbat doesn't know where Chen Kai and the others are, so he can only send a large number of players to search for them in the wasteland, which makes the speed even slower. But now that Balbat has fully mastered the characteristics of the player, he has begun to use gold and various equipment to increase the player's enthusiasm. There is no doubt about getting two lords' treasury. It can even be said that Barbat, who has the wealth of two cities, definitely has enough capital to issue various quests for his own benefit.
But what made Barbat feel depressed was that he had just contacted the demigod Ness to explain the destruction of the two war puppets, and as a result, some of the high-level spell materials and precious magic items he had looted from the Candorhat City Lord's Mansion were instantly gone. Although he was quickly compensated by twelve new black war golems, the spell materials, especially the magic crystal cannons brought out of the ruins of Candorhat City, were very precious things, but now they were all stolen by Ness.
Barbat didn't know how much Ness needed all kinds of precious spell materials at this moment. In order to repair his destroyed realm world, he even peeled the skin and bones of the gods and creatures and turned them into materials for use, so after learning about Asu and Kandorhat from Barbat's mouth. The demigod ransacked Barbat without any discipline, robbed most of the spell materials he was carrying, and then ran off to the ruins of Asu and Kandoghat. In the shocked eyes of many scavenger players, he took away all the treasured materials left in the city, even the huge magic cannon in the ruins of the City Lord's Mansion, and even the rocks that built the city.
When Ness disappears from the player's eyes again, at least a third of the entire city of Candorhat is missing. Of course, Ness just opened up his own domain world and then sent out skeleton puppets to carry things into his own domain world, rather than doing it himself.
There is no doubt that the restoration of his own domain world is the most important thing for Ness at this moment, and he didn't even ask Barbat if he had found the body of the evil god, because at this moment, Ness did not pay attention to the body of the evil god but to restore his domain world. If Ness wants to ascend to the throne in the sky, then there is no doubt that a complete domain world is necessary, otherwise, relying on a dilapidated domain world, he will not be able to push the realm world to the astral plane and become a kingdom of God.
