"It's just a very ordinary water monster, and it's been solved." Tang Shidao threw the Frost Dragon's Spine Sword. Because the blow is fatal, it only consumes a little bit of magic energy from the Frost Dragon's Spine Sword. If the Swamp King weren't poisonous, killing it wouldn't have to be frozen. This is done just in case, so that it will not have to fight back against the polluted water once it dies.

The minotaur looked at it and was completely dumbfounded.

The joy in his heart swelled, but he didn't dare to shout loudly in front of the great mage.

The members of the group who saw Tang Shidao kill the Swamp King with one blow were even more shocked, they couldn't believe that the powerful Swamp King was easily killed in such an instant. The sword was sharp and frozen, but they knew it best: it was a one-shot victory!

The Swamp King is incredibly fast in the water.

It is very cautious against the enemy, never careless, and always a tentative attack with tentacles and poisonous mist. Once it encounters danger, it will definitely sneak back into the swamp as soon as possible, making it impossible to pursue. The expeditionary forces of the nearby city-states had laid countless traps, and it had never been fooled.

When it has magical powers, it goes berserk, but when it loses its magical powers, it is more timid than a mouse.

Hard shield scales.

Tough muscles.

Flexible tentacles.

Over the years, everyone has crusaded countless times, and they can't even find the weakness of the Swamp King, let alone the fatal place. Now, His Excellency the Mage saw through the Swamp King's fatal point at a glance, and killed it in an instant with just one blow. It's no wonder that the Marsh King himself is dead.

Tang Shidao felt that it was normal.

Swiftness Aura plus Eagle Eye Ring, as well as Eagle Eye Halo derived from Demon Detection Perspective...... It is clear at a glance where the body energy of the swamp king is strong and where it is weak.

Without magic, this kind of water mage is really weak.

"Did you know there's an artificial cave under the swamp?" Tang Shidao's demon detection perspective is not only to see living things, but also to see everything with magical energy. There was also a faint glow of energy in the swamp king's lair, which was not naturally formed, but was obviously an artificially created cave.

"What are you talking about, Your Excellency?" The Minotaur obviously didn't know, but after a moment of thought, he said, "Oh, our prophet once spoke of the legend of the King of the Caves. ”

"The Cave King?"

"Yes. I don't know what it is, but when I was a child, I heard the prophet mention this legend, probably a story of children. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll go down and see." Tang Shidao was sure that he was not mistaken.

"Of course, Your Excellency. Excuse me, we can ...... the corpse of the Marsh King."

"You can do whatever you want." Tang Shidao knew that they wanted to invite merit. Even if it wasn't killed by the expeditionary force, at least it would prove that the Marsh King was really dead, and there would be no need to worry about this area of water being poisonous in the future. They were going to invite themselves back to the Prophet, and they would certainly not take the credit.

As a matter of fact.

Tang Shidao didn't care at all.

Perform a water inhalation and carefully dive into the depths of the swamp to find the cave where the Swamp King is hiding. Surprisingly, this water cave is also connected to a huge underground karst cave, which is built in the same way as an underground labyrinth, and is 100% artificially developed.

The underground labyrinth was dark and dark, and Tang Shidao had to cast the eye of insight.

According to the direction capture of the demon detective perspective, Tang Shidao found two hundred and twenty energy cubes. If you're not mistaken, this is the alchemy material used in neutral lands, the gold coin. I don't know why the Swamp King is 'rich', but I can guess that he has the intention of buying a potion of returns.

Probably, the Swamp King still has a partner to work with.

The cave labyrinth is not large, and there are no guards, just a half-finished product with no mana cycle.

On the face of it, it doesn't seem to be of much value.

But.

Tang Shidao silently memorized the map of the cave maze. He found that the map had been 'disassembled' into a strange set of runes, somewhat similar to the ordering of some kind of spell. The cave labyrinth was certainly not built by the Swamp King, the king of caves in local legend...... You have to hear the story to know.

Soon.

Tang Shidao returned to the ground, knowing that the head of the Minotaur had sent the 'Swift Leopard' back to report the news.

"Please call me the Brute Force Cow, Your Excellency Mage, I can't afford to be called your leader." Minotaur ...... No, the brute force bull patted his chest and his voice was deep.

"You can just call me Don." Tang Shidao only reported the surname.

"Yes, Master Tang." The respect of the brute force ox remained unchanged, and he chatted again during the hurried: "Excuse me, is Your Excellency an in-network mage or an out-of-network mage?" ”

"Does the mage in the net refer to the mage of the mage network?" Tang Shidao sounded strange.

"Yes."

"Then I'm a net mage. Captain of the Brute Force Bull, aren't you welcome? "Tang Shidao asked the residents of the neutral land if they rejected the mage network.

Unexpectedly.

As soon as they heard their identities admitted, all the team members became even more excited.

It's as if the mage in the net is some kind of amazing identity.

Talking.

Tang Shidao slowly learned that the residents of the Neutral Land did not reject the mage network, but were very envious. The entire neutral place is revered by magic, and naturally everyone envies the status of a mage. The prophets of the various tribes also told them that the mages in the net were more powerful than the mages outside the net, and the mages in the net were more disciplined than the mages outside the net, and generally did not destroy and kill indiscriminately.

Under this kind of education, although the mage in the net is an outsider, he is also a kind and friendly guest.

Because there are flying boats.

Half a day later, the group returned to the nearest city-state: Pointe-Noire.

At this moment, it was already a sea of joy, and all the residents poured into the streets to sing and dance. Seeing the body of the Marsh King being hoisted back, the residents cheered even more.

Dilapidated city walls.

Old mud huts.

Dirty streets.

There are also the torn clothes of the inhabitants, which is a complete picture of primitive tribes.

In the Earth Emperor Star, the poorest continent is not worse than this.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Tang Shidao still waved his hand to the cheering crowd to show friendship. Then meet the prophet's discerning cow for the first time...... It is the grandfather of the Brute Force Cow.

"Your question, Master Tang." The discerning cow was also quite excited, trying to calm down.

At this time, the room was full of books, and I should have just moved out.

For fear that he would not be able to answer, Tang Shidao would be disappointed.

"Prophet, have you ever heard of such a thing as a Black Cloud Pearl?" Tang Shidao didn't want to waste time and got straight to the point.

"This ......," the discerning cow mused.

Obviously, it has not been heard.

Merely.

"You have something to say." Tang Shidao gestured.

"Since Your Excellency has killed the Marsh King for us, then I will not hide it. In fact, we have a legend of the king of the cave here, which we made up to warn children not to run around and not to break into the cave. ”

Next to him, the brute force bull had a 'I knew it was fake' expression.

The rest of the team warriors had the same expression.

The Eyed Cow's tone changed: "This is a made-up story...... It's true! Our ancestors eliminated some normal content and made some exaggerated plots into it to make it seem fake. In fact, the Cave King really existed, but I don't know if he is dead now. ”

Tang Shidao understood as soon as he heard it: "You are afraid that someone will pursue the treasure of the King of the Cave, so you deliberately made it up as a fake. ”

The Wise Eye Bull nodded: "Your Excellency Mage is indeed wise, we are not afraid of children running around, but we are afraid that adult warriors will be tempted by this legend, so we deliberately distort its truth." Your Excellency, we cannot repay your great kindness. Since you asked about the Black Cloud Pearl, I will repay you with a secret: there is no Black Cloud Pearl, there is no such thing in the Land of Flowing Clouds. ”

Tang Shidao waited.

The members of the group next to them were anxious, this is not repaying the favor, it is the same as not saying it.

The Wise Eye Ox said lightly: "The next secret, everyone must not spread it after hearing it, otherwise they will be driven out of the group and will never be recruited...... Uh-huh...... So, the legendary king of the cave in the Land of Flowing Clouds, it has a name, and it is called: Black Cloud! ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Such a coincidence?

"The name of the Cave King was said by his own mouth, and one of our ancestors heard it with his own ears. It is rumored not to be of our race, nor to be human, nor to be a beast. The description of the ancestors...... The Cave King has a black body, as hard as iron and stone, and has hot veins like lava under his skin. Its body resembles that of a human, but it only has the upper half of its body left. ”

Tang Shidao understood as soon as he heard it: it was the Stone Man race!

After speaking, the Wise Eye Ox took out a sketch of the depiction, a treasure that had been treasured for a long time: "There have been mages who have inquired about the Black Cloud Pearl before, and they all have their own harvests. We don't know if the King of the Cave has pearls or not, only that it has always lived deep underground. ”

Tang Shidao took a look.

Sure enough, it was a stone man with only half of his body left.

When I saw the drawing, I couldn't help but ask, "What are these lines?" Iron chain or smoke or something? ”

The Bright-Eyed Ox hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Regarding this, Your Excellency Mage, I definitely didn't want to lie to you. These lines, which our ancestors described as glowing words, tiny, tiny words, arranged like a line. Your Excellency, the ancestors may have been mistaken. That's what they said, and I haven't changed a word. ”

Tang Shidao didn't doubt it.

Bondage spells, such as your own iron vine entanglement, or fire snake binding, electric rope, water entanglement, etc., are all physical binding. A little more high-end is the magic of the arcane power imprison, and a little more high-end...... Runic shackles and the like have this kind of glowing little writing.

Black Cloud is definitely a mage.

It's also absolutely imprisoned by some kind of power.

"Prophet, are there any special pearls in the Land of Flowing Clouds?" Tang Shidao will paint pictures and memorize them, and then recall the cave labyrinth, as if there are some similarities.

"Of course, Your Excellency. We've not been to many places, but there's a constant flow of information. There are many pearls in the land of flowing clouds, hundreds of large and small, including some terrestrial giant mussels, which produce pearls...... "The Wise Eye Ox immediately gushed when he talked about pearls.

Tang Shidao listened quietly.

Hearing a pearl called 'Ubei', Tang Shidao smiled...... It's definitely a pit!

If it was so easy to find, Dean Bai Xiang wouldn't have to post it so many times.

At this time.

Tang Shidao's whole mind was on the body of the king of the cave, 'Black Cloud', and the Black Cloud Pearl must have something to do with it. On the surface, he had to cater to the words of the discerning cow, indicating that he was very interested in the black pearl. Rationale for this...... Because Tang Shidao found that some of the warriors in this group were focused and more serious than himself.

The most important.

Its magic power is not low, almost more than three times that of the brute force ox.

Such a warrior cannot be a small role for the micro-end. Why is it willing to be a runner? And how many times did you sneak peek at yourself?

There must be a problem.

The Wise Eye Ox mentioned that the Ube pearl was very valuable, and Tang Shidao asked about the value of the gold coin.

"It's the only currency that is universal, and it's still an alchemy material, so it's very valuable. One gold coin can be exchanged for about 1 bison, or 3 wild sheep, or 10 wild dogs, or 30 pheasants. We don't use gold coins, we usually barter things, such as chickens for sheep, bottles for chairs, teeth for horns, and so on. ”

"What about buying a potion of returns?"

"1 gold coin can only buy one bottle of primary magic potion." The Eagle-Eyed Bull offers an astonishing price.

Tang Shidao was a little surprised.

The primary magic potion only restores 1 mana, which is equal to one gold coin and one bison...... In the mage network, is it good that the alchemy material of Ao Jin can be exchanged for a large pot of magic potions.

I thought about it.

Tang Shidao also consulted the Wise Eye Ox with several medicinal herbs, all of which were materials for making magic potions.

Rejected the feast of the evening.

In front of everyone, he turned into an owl and flew to the valley with alchemical herbs. Naturally, everyone wouldn't say anything, and anyone could understand the mage's eagerness to make a potion return.

On a night of revelry, a figure hurried into the dark forest.

A few low howls, as if some kind of code.

"Idiot, didn't I say don't come to see me if there's nothing important?"

"No, no, no! My king, I have heard a new message, and it is definitely an important secret. A leopard man called excitedly. In the shadows, a taller leopard-man mage stepped out, spear in hand like a wooden staff.

"What's the secret?"

"It's ......"

Just as he was about to speak, a fiery ray shot through the mouth of the little leopard man from a high place.

Before dying.

The leopard man saw a familiar owl emerge from invisibility.

One last thought: Hold the grass, fooled.
