Chapter 45: The Swamp

When the two of them walked to the ruins of the lumberyard again, Yate threw a white bead onto the ruins, which was the soul image ball that Wang Feng had seen before.

"What are you?"

"Ah, this soul is about to escape, throw it back to the place where it died, and it will be directed to the plane of the undead."

"Didn't you say he deserved it? Why did he suddenly change his mind and let him be reincarnated? ”

"We're all going to make mistakes after all, and since we're dead, we'll pay it back." Art said seriously, "Okay, let's go, this road is dangerous, it is good to send away this hoodoo full of resentment." ”

Wang Feng was stunned for a moment, it seems that Art is not optimistic about the prospect of going to the Spider Kingdom, so it is so abnormal.

It is still a river channel as the standard to travel south, passing through the place where Wang picked mountain grapes last time, and the wild mountain grapes are still hanging on the vines.

Wang Feng and Yate stopped to pick some of them, and with snacks and mouthpieces, the journey that was originally a little sluggish and easy to be cold suddenly became a lot easier.

"It's nice to have ripe mountain grapes here all year round." Athan sighed.

"Why, isn't that the grapes of the Dark City?"

"There are no grapes in the Dark City."

When Wang Feng came to the clearing of the woods where he had come out last time and was ready to fight the cat demon, Yat found a small mark on the tree, which was a trident-like arrow.

"What is this?" Wang Feng asked curiously.

"Sign it. The words of the trident mean that there are enemies here, and it seems that Kakun left behind. ”

"What about the others?"

"Go back and move the rescuers, I feel that there is an energy fluctuation of the formation in front of me, maybe because of this, Kakun made a sign and went back. Seeing that he still has time to make a mark, it means that it is not an encounter, as long as it is not a sneak attack, a well-trained dark elf will not be caught. Yat seemed to see Wang Feng's concern and said with relief.

Wang Feng smiled bitterly, it seemed that in this continent, the only intelligent creature who would be attracted to the enemy's hometown by a simple trick to lure the enemy was himself.

The river had crossed the swamp south, but Ath had begun to lead the way eastward, clinging to the edge of the swamp.

"It's a lot better than I expected. The swamp seems to be covered by a huge magic array, and through the boundary of this magic array, we have another signpost. Athan was pleasantly surprised.

"Watch your feet, maybe there is a trap under the dead branches and leaves." Wang Feng said solemnly, and looked around to see if there were any suitable branches that could be cut down to make pathfinders, although it was said to be close to the edge of the swamp, but these intertwined borders were actually not reliable.

"Understood." Athan took the two and a half meters long and arm-thick branch that Wang Feng had just chopped, and carefully explored the way in front, of course, Wang Feng also had one in his hand, and deliberately set aside a protruding branch as a hook, so as not to let Astra really fall, and let her grab the hook.

The road ahead was not smooth, except for the overgrown plants, the protruding swamps that needed to be bypassed from time to time, the warm climate and the inaccessible environment made it a breeding ground for snakes, insects and ants, Arter had expected to get lost and swampy environments, but these swarms of mosquitoes and leech ticks were the first and most serious trouble they encountered. Of course, this trouble is only Wang's. His exuberant flesh attracted these vampires like a spotlight, and Art's insect trap was not much affected.

In the end, Wang Feng, who was crawled all over by mosquitoes and leeches, took the trouble to angrily use the power of blood to smoke these bloodthirsty guys into dry corpses, and the remains of the insects densely covered Wang's body, fortunately, this thing is not a person with a habit of cleanliness, and he dusted it twice casually, and it was really not clean, that is, forget it.

Awakened by the power of blood and qi are not only harmless mosquitoes and animals, but also giant beasts lurking in the swamp reeds, giant snakes as thick as water tanks, wolves swimming in the reeds, and even some unknown giant beasts that are three or four people high, except for the first snake and wolf who were killed by Wang Feng, the rest of the beasts Wang can dodge, dodge if he can, and even use the stealth potion twice, of course, even so, Wang has not been able to get rid of all the swamp natives, behind them, At least three sizable wolves followed.

"Just use it as a backup." Wang comforted the frightened Att.

Walking in the woods is far more physically demanding than imagined, although Wang has not yet realized anything, but Yat, who was exploring the road in front, has accidentally stepped on a swamp quagmire after a morning of high-intensity pathfinding. If it weren't for her quick reaction, she instantly grabbed the wooden stick that Wang Feng had been probing beside her, I am afraid that she would have been buried in the swamp by now.

So Wang decided to take a break at the campfire left by the unknown race and straighten out the route.

"It's a nice place." Art looked at the solid ground and the small hill behind her with satisfaction, "These cat demons really look for a place to rest. ”

"Cat demon?"

"When I came here just now, those melon seed prints on the ground have fully explained that this is the rest ground of the cat demon hunting team, and it seems that these cat demons have a lot of control over this swamp."

Wang was silent for a moment, he hadn't seen any cat demon paw prints, which may be the difference between a layman and a professional.

The doughnuts and grapes that Arte carried on him were no longer edible because they had fallen into the mire, and Wang Feng only brought some grapes. The two of them ate some casually, and Arte instructed Wang to get some dry firewood, and took out the flint and started another bonfire on the original embers.

The two sat down around the campfire, and Yat scalded some of the tick leeches that had pierced his skin without being attracted by Wang, with burning firewood, "It's a lot easier than I thought." It seems that many of the dangers have been solved by the organized cat demons. ”

"I think it's dangerous enough, and we still have wolves behind us."

"Then you must not have noticed the snake path that is more than two meters wide before?"

"Scared? How wide is two meters? How long does this snake have to be? Wang Feng frowned, "If it's really like what you said, these huge threats have been hunted, is this really the work of those cat demons who were easily killed by us?" ”

"Maybe there is also a mutant powerhouse similar to Renault in the goblin." Ath shrugged, "What's more, the power of the collective is not something that a young lady like you can understand without leaving home. ”

Although he was ridiculed again, Wang didn't care, in fact, he lived in the Esbian Order for twenty-two years, and there was really no difference between the otaku lady who still stayed at home.

His sick body limited his mobility, similar to the isolation of the Order, which reduced his knowledge of the outside world, and if it weren't for some basic education and church network, Wang felt that he might not even know what money was.

However, as a holy son, although Wang is a mascot, he still occasionally enlightens the congregation and listens to confessions, to put it bluntly, he is an emotional trash can, so he knows more about some dark things than ordinary people.

"By the way, what are you looking for along the way?"

"Rails, driveways, or whatever. Seriously, the dwarves haven't appeared in the Arad continent for too long, not to mention that they also lived in seclusion before, focusing on mining and mining, and the outside world knows very little. But I think that the dwarves of the drifting caves were able to start work on the territory of the forest elves, and I think they promised some benefits. The relationship between the dwarves and the elves is also not friendly, but the elves need minerals... Ah, that's a lot, all in all, elves can't meet all the needs of dwarves, so these dwarves must have some connection with humans. ”

"Demand?"

"Elves don't eat meat, they don't drink alcohol. Maybe those dwarves can endure it without eating meat, and if they don't drink for a day, they will probably riot en masse. ”

"So?"

"So I just wish that the dwarves of the Drifting Caves would be larger, and that they would have carved out a road to Huttonmar to transport the wine they needed."

"How old is the legend of the dwarves?"

"It's been 20 years since the Great Forest Fire of Glenn was born."

“…… Then you're looking for a road..."
