Chapter 135: The Strange Inhabitants in the Swamp (Part I)

"Whoa!" When the first carnivorous fish jumped out of the water, Xu Fei soon discovered that the fish looked very similar to the Amazonian man-eating pomfret. Of course, there is no doubt that the size of these carnivorous fish is much larger, after all, the man-eating pomfret in reality is only about 25 centimeters, and the carnivorous fish that jump out of the water in front of you are at least fifty or sixty centimeters.

However, although it has become larger, the scarlet eyes, fanged mouth, and red belly are very similar to the real Amazon man-eating pomfret no matter how you look at it. The sheer size of their mouths means that their mouths have even more terrifying biting abilities, and the original real-life man-eating pomfret can tear off 16 cubic centimeters of meat in one bite, while these in-game carnivorous fish can bite at least 30 cubic centimeters of meat in one bite.

By the time the cold glowing teeth appeared in front of them, dozens of predatory fish had already jumped out of the water. The sound of the whirling tail slapping the water was like a demon, and the huge fish that swooped straight at the horses pulling the carriage and the occupants of the carriage with their mouths were fiercely bitten.

"Shield!" As Chen Kai's words fell, Chen Yi on the roof of the carriage slowly clasped her hands to her chest, and a pale golden sacred protective wall expanded out in all directions with her body as the center. The predatory fish that flew at the ground slammed directly into the shield, and in an instant they were blown out by the gradually expanding shield projectile.

But the carnivorous fish that bounced off were only a few after all, because the next moment more carnivorous fish leaped out of the swamp water, and the huge number was enough to make any ordinary adventurer instantly scare urine. No one knows how many predatory fish there are in the moorland swamps, but they are undoubtedly the most powerful group predators in the region. But each pod of carnivorous fish has its own leader, and when their colony reaches a certain upper limit, the population separates into smaller predatory fish groups on its own. Because they know that there is a limit to what can be served in an area, and if they increase their populations without hesitation, these carnivorous fish will kill each other after eating the last creature in the swamp.

The most important thing is that no matter how strong the carnivorous fish are, they are just ordinary creatures after all. Although their level is more than forty, they are very strong among ordinary creatures, but no matter how strong they are, they are only ordinary creatures, and in this area of the wasteland swamp, they can only rely on numbers to obtain the right to survive. If not that sheer volume. These carnivorous fish are just food in the stomachs of other monsters.

Now all they have to do is work to get food for survival, even if there is a magical wall of divine power in front of them, these carnivorous fish will rush in. Because of Chen Kai's bloody smell on their bodies, these carnivorous fish were attracted to them, so that they didn't care if they could break Chen Yi's protective wall or not, they just threw themselves out of the water and hit them headlong.

The sound of knock knock kept ringing in Chen Kai's ears, and the thick sacred wall was constantly shaking like a glass curtain wall. Chen Yi's magic power was declining at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Chen Kai and the others were still slowly lying in the mud and moving forward slowly. Although they found a path that looked good, it was also submerged below the waterline. There was no doubt that if there was no Chen Yi's sacred protective wall, then these carnivorous fish would definitely be able to attack Chen Kai and them from underwater.

But such a large-scale deployment of the Divine Protective Wall was definitely a test for Chen Yi's magic power, in the absence of an effective means of replenishing the demon. Chen Yi can support a minute, which is definitely the limit. But in a minute, Chen Kai's carriage couldn't leave the most dangerous area at all.

"Lightning spell ready! Remember to keep your distance a little further, or the overflowing electricity will hurt our pack horses! Xu Fei whispered to the others, and then completed the preparation of the arcane lightning the moment Chen Yi's divine shield disappeared. With a flick of his finger, a lilac arcane bolt unleashed towards the densest area of the predators, and the lilac lightning instantly hit the surface of the water and formed an electric field on the surface. The crackling electricity continued to flicker on the surface of the water, and the carnivorous fish that had rushed out of the water under the surface of the water instantly suffered a large amount of electric current, fainted by the electric shock, and slowly surfaced.

After Xu Fei released the first arcane lightning, he immediately began to prepare a new round of spells with both hands. In a very short period of time, several spellcasters completed the preparation of lightning spells, and even Alyssa, who was a shaman, released several natural thunderbolts to bombard the water. The crackling of thunder and lightning frightened the horses, but the dwarves managed to move forward in the mud.

The heavy carriage was constantly slowing down because of the slippery wheels. As a result of the release of a large amount of electric charge in the water, Chen Kai and at least hundreds of predatory fish that had been stunned floated around them. But what made Chen Kai and the others feel their scalps tingle was that there were more carnivorous fish gathering under the surface of the water, and those fainted carnivorous fish undoubtedly immediately attracted the attack of the same kind, and under the flying blood, there was a terrifying number of carnivorous fish enjoying the same kind of feast.

For Chen Kai, the only good news for them is that they only need to hold on for a while before they can get out of danger. Because not far away there is a swampy island where several wagons can be parked. There are few dry areas of this range in the swamp, and this area is definitely good news for the people who are under siege by the predators at the moment. It's just that if they want to set foot in this area, they have to walk at least a distance of tens of meters, which is a matter of minutes and minutes when the carriage is placed on flat ground, but in the muddy swamp, the distance of tens of meters seems to be hundreds of meters or thousands of meters away.

Seeing this situation, Chen Kai's heart was ruthless, and he directly released two injured pack horses from the pet space. Hit the other party's ass hard. The scarlet blood and intense pain immediately stimulated the two injured pack horses, and almost without Chen Kai driving them, they automatically fled and rushed into the swamp, relying on instinct to swim forward on the water.

"Let's go! Come on! Look a! Give me a quick go! Chen Kai roared angrily. In fact, as a knight, it is absolutely undesirable to treat horses like this, but Chen Kai has no way, if he does not do this, then these carnivorous fish will undoubtedly rush into the middle of the carriage. Even a few dozen of them could frighten all the pack horses pulling the cart, and the consequences were unbearable for everyone.

Therefore, Chen Kai could only sacrifice the two injured pack horses and use them to lure away those carnivorous fish to buy a little time for everyone to move. The two ponies fulfilled this duty perfectly under the guidance of survival instincts, originally they wanted to stay away from Chen Kai, and then kept fluttering in the water, which undoubtedly immediately attracted the attention of those carnivorous fish, and the wound cut by Chen Kai with his knife made these carnivorous fish go crazy. Ran directly after the two horses with the smell of blood. The neighing horses in the splash were extremely tragic and mournful. The neighing sound of the screaming horses kept drilling into Chen Kai's ears, making his face very ugly.

When the first carriage stepped onto the soft earth, everyone's hearts were slightly relieved, and by this time the two horses were left with only two skeletons floating on the water. There was not a trace of flesh on the scarlet horse bones, and the hollow horse skull was held high on its back, and finally slowly sank into the water, completely disappearing with the splash of water.

When the last carriage stepped into the swampy island with the sound of dripping water, there were several carnivorous fish hanging on the carriage, and even Chen Kai and the others had two fish hanging on their bodies. Sharp teeth gritted at the armor and writhed the body, trying to bite off the flesh under the armor. Of course, the final result was that Chen Kai and the others directly cut their bodies with their close-fitting short weapons, and then dragged them down and threw them into the water. In addition to Chen Kai and them, the last pack horse pulling the cart was also injured by Yan Zhanng, and at least three or four taels of meat were torn off from the thighs of a horse, and it was completely lame. The other horse was even more miserable, and its stomach was bitten open.

By the time Chen Kai and the others pulled the carriage up to the swampy island, the horse's stomach had been emptied, and more than a dozen carnivorous fish flowed out of the breach in their stomachs as the horses were pulled up to the water, bouncing on the soft soil.

"! Lao Tzu's horse!! Fei Yun looked at the horses that had completely lost their breath and became angry, and swung his wooden stick and slammed it on the jumping carnivorous fish. It's just that although these carnivorous fish were all blown out of their heads, Chen Kai and they didn't have the idea of eating fish, God knows what these guys ate to grow so big. In the belly of the carnivorous fish that had been cut, Chen Kai and the others found a finger bone in addition to the meat.

Seeing that finger bone, everyone almost vomited out the contents of their stomachs, because this phalanx bone was obviously not completely digested, and there was still a faint amount of flesh sticking to it. This kind of scene looks as disgusting as it gets, and Chen Kai and the others almost don't plan to eat fish in the future when they think of this.

In the end, the poor pack horse was thrown into the water by Chen Kai and fed to the fish. Of course, it was pulled by two wyverns and dropped a few hundred meters away. Otherwise, these predators will not leave the waters at all, because they will feel that there is more food here and stay here.

When a wisp of bonfire was slowly lit, the wet firewood emitted a choking smoke, and Chen Kai and the others kept rinsing the muddy armor with clean water. Of course, there were only a few men who flushed naked on their bodies. Because there were only Chen Kai and a few of them in the muddy water. It was only at this time that Chen Kai and the others could clean up the little monsters in the muddy water in the swamp, such as leeches with two fingers thick and water centipedes. Looking at the leech that had sucked up blood, Chen Kai was extremely depressed, because this leech had reduced his health by at least nearly a hundred points. And there were more than thirty leeches hanging on his body.

These seemingly inconspicuous things directly caused Chen Kai's vitality to lose more than 3,000 points, and what made Chen Kai even more depressed was that he couldn't pinch these guys to death, because He Liwen was holding a jar and looking at him blankly.

"Give! Don't let me see this little thing again!! Chen Kai threw the leech into the jar in her hand with a loud cry from He Liwen. Looking at the slowly jar, at least more than a hundred leeches were slowly crawling, even Chen Kai felt a tingling in his scalp.

Chen Kai was puzzled by He Liwen's behavior of collecting leeches, but when he thought of the strange materials needed for some wizard potions, he immediately fully understood. There is no doubt that every player who works as a wizard is a wizard in the world of dark cuisine, and it is said that many British players choose to work as a wizard, and the highest ability of these players to make zuò potions is a few British chefs, because even the British themselves think that their own cuisine is quite close to dark cuisine.

Of course, it can't be said that the wizard's potion is a dark dish, but from the senses it is a bit close. There is no doubt that these leeches are definitely useful for He Liwen, especially the leeches that have sucked up blood. But when Chen Kai and the others saw the appearance of the leech handled by He Liwen, their jaws instantly clicked and dislocated.

Because He Liwen grabbed more than a dozen leeches directly from the jar, and then put them directly into the medicine jar and began to pound them, the splashed blood instantly emerged from the broken leech's body, splashing He Liwen's face. But she didn't even wipe it and continued to pound those leeches, at least half of the hundreds of leeches were wiped out by her, and the medicine jar the size of a small tank had accumulated at least a few hundred CC of blood. There is no doubt that the blood came from the body of a leech. That is, the blood on Chen Kai's body that was sucked.

Then He Liwen began to add all kinds of things to the plasma that exuded a pungent smell, and those extremely terrifying-looking poisons were added to the plasma little by little, and then slowly stirred. When the last drop of viper venom was added, the blood in the jar looked even redder, but everyone knew that the blood was definitely more poisonous.

"Boss! I apply for a horse! When He Liwen came to Chen Kai with the blood that didn't seem to have any problems, the blood on her face hadn't been washed yet, and the whole person looked like she could be a bloody witch in a horror movie.

"Yes!" Chen Kai saw that He Liwen, who was holding the blood, guessed a little bit about what she wanted to do, and then readily agreed to her request. So a poor colt becomes a test subject again, when He Liwen uses the game's special syringe to suck all the blood into the horse's body and inject it into the horse's body. Everyone shuddered at the sight of the thick needle, and the extremely poisonous poison flowed down the blood into the horse's body, killing the horse almost in a short time.

As Chen Kai and the others pushed the dead colt into the water, a trace of the smell of blood began to spread around. Almost in a short time, hundreds of predatory fish hiding around pounced on the carcasses of the horses. But there is no doubt that this was a meal of death, and Ho used the anti-clotting substances in the leech's body to process the blood, so that the blood with a large amount of poison was still not clotted, so that it could be injected into the horse's veins. When the blood flowed into the horse's body, all the meat was imbued with a huge poison, which could kill hundreds of carnivorous fish, so a few minutes later, Chen Kai and the others saw a large number of dead fish floating on the surface of the water.

It's a pity that this toxin will gradually disappear after it is integrated into the water, otherwise there will be no living creatures in the entire wasteland swamp in the future. With the last dead fish disappearing to the surface, there is no doubt that Chen Kai's fucking revenge is completely over. The rest of the leeches were put away by He Liwen, and then the entire convoy fell into silence again.

A suckling pig is roasted on a suffocating bonfire with choking smoke. After the sky gradually darkened, Chen Kai and the others began to prepare dinner. Before that, of course, they measured their surroundings on a small raft and found a way to the outside world.

There is no doubt that the suckling pig roasted with wet wood is definitely stained with a strong smell of smoke, but fortunately, the smoke emitted by the firewood behind it is not heavy, and there are some places where the taste is acceptable. Otherwise, a few elven mages would definitely not be able to eat pork full of smoke, and Nero Elu, who only eats fruits, is much easier to feed. After eating, Chen Kai and the others began to study the map they had bought from the store again. I even downloaded a lot of maps drawn by players from the Internet for comparison. Although both the former and the latter are charged, at least it can save Chen Kai and them a lot of time to explore the path.

"This picture looks a bit like? Didn't the fourth child draw this swampy island! Chen Kai was dragged by two flying dragons and hung in mid-air to Fei Yun, although it was very good to experience the feeling of a dragon knight taking off in the air, but the problem was that this way of flying was definitely not what Fei Yun wanted.

"That's it! All right! Put me down! At this moment, Fei Yun shouted against the wind. Because it is absolutely extremely uncomfortable to stay high in the air without protection, Fei Yun, who has a rope hanging from his waist, now misses the solid ground more than the free sky.

"That's it! Send me the picture first! Chen Kai whistled towards the flying dragon, but the two-headed flying dragon who had not been flying was a little depressed. Apparently they would have liked to spend a little longer in the sky, especially when the ropes were tight, and the sound of Fei Yun made them even happier.

"Looks like this picture is a little more accurate!" Although the map drawn by the player is not as clear and accurate as the footage recorded by Fei Yun at high altitude, Chen Kai and the others still found a way to allow the carriage to pass through Guò when the general shape is close. Even if there were a few stretches of the road that seemed to be hidden below the waterline, the waterline was only a few centimeters after the small canoe paddled past and surveyed it.

After deciding on the road, they only need to wait until dawn the next day, then Chen Kai and the others have a great chance of leaving this nasty swamp within two days. Of course, that needs to be in the case of a qiē shun lì, if not, maybe the time will be a little longer. (To be continued......)
