Volume 1 Chapter 62 Swamp Frog (1)
It was the next morning, before the sun came out, and the sky was dark, and the caravan at Nolchen Point had departed.
Today is an early departure, but since it is always raining and the sky is pitch black, you need to move forward under the light of countless oil lamps and special magic stones, and the speed should not be too fast.
The rest of the way, according to the slowest speed, is estimated to take nearly seven days, and the appearance of the monsters and robbers to be encountered during this period may also affect the speed of the journey.
It was also out of consideration for the safety of the caravan that Kate also recruited two other adventure groups in Durham Town, the number of them was not large, and the total number was only fifteen, and the strength was okay, and the lowest were all intermediate level of the earth.
Kate hoped that their rich experience in this adventure could give the team a little more guidance and avoid some accidents, but the caravan was mainly responsible for escorting the two teams of Sivir and Paul, and now the combat strength of Sivir's team has been healed, and the other is the support Jenny is not counted in the combat force.
"It's annoying that it's raining. Oak, who had not yet recovered from his injuries in the carriage, complained.
"It's going to be this weather all the way. "Joey is cured, but as a mage, he still chooses to sit in the carriage, which is better.
"You still pray that you don't run into swamp frogs, that thing is annoying. Julie reminded angrily.
When Joey heard this, he also smiled bitterly and said, "I hope I don't meet all the way." ”
According to the leaders of the two adventure groups hired in Durham Town, there are no robbers along the way, and due to the geographical location, there are basically few caravans passing here, because of the weather and imperfect roads, plus the appearance of a difficult monster swamp frog here.
The swamp frog is a third-order magical beast that lives in groups, and can use its unique talent to control the viscosity of the surrounding water sources, which may not be very powerful in other places, but it is a disaster for adventurers to rain all year round.
It is precisely because of various reasons that even if the caravan has passed to Shuicheng to buy and sell goods, it is extremely profitable, but the risk also makes many chambers of commerce give up their choice.
The destination water city is developed through sea transportation and trade exchanges with the outside world, but the cost of a single sea transportation can be larger than that of land transportation, and the trip to the water city of Norchen Jiao is also the meaning of developing land transportation to the water city.
Fortunately, it is still dark and the swamp frog will not appear, which is something that everyone does not need to worry about for the time being.
Byron and Kate stayed in a carriage to meditate and cultivate, now he is about to break through to the middle level of the rainbow, he should want to train hard, but this breakthrough is not overnight, sometimes it takes a chance, he thought that Ivan would be his chance, but he was a little disappointed.
Kate on the side is unexpectedly cultivating seriously today, since she returned to her residence yesterday and was woken up by Maher's words, Kate felt that she needed to cultivate, and strive to keep up with Byron's footsteps, her talent itself is not bad, and with the support of the family resources of Nuo Chenjiao, naturally it will not be slower than Byron's cultivation.
As time passed, the night faded away, and the sky became brighter, and although the sun could not be seen in its entirety, the light it emitted shone on the whole earth.
The big guy did not stop moving forward, breakfast was prepared in advance, and they were all eaten together on the road, until noon, they would stop to rest, feed the iron hoof yak and the wildebeest under the seat, and everyone prepared lunch.
The lunch time was also shortened, and in order to hurry, the four adventuring groups took turns to change guards outside, and the caravan personnel also had a certain rotation, so that they could reach the water city as quickly as possible.
However, this idea was interrupted by the next afternoon, near dusk, when the swamp frogs attacked, and as the sound of frogs around them gradually became clear, everyone drew their weapons and prepared for battle.
"Don't let them get close to the caravan, the rain they control will cover the ironhoofed yaks and the like and they will die of breathing!" shouted Sumada, the leader of an adventure group hired in the town of Durham.
When everyone heard this, they immediately got out of the carriage and attacked towards the sound of frogs, but as soon as they reached the vicinity of the giant swamp frog, the rain in the sky immediately turned into a viscous liquid like snot, and even the weapons in their hands were a little unstable when they were stuck to their bodies, and their feet began to slip.
Experienced adventurers have covered their whole bodies with magic power, this can have a battle, swamp frogs came from both sides and directly in front, there were seven of them, they jumped slowly, shaking the ground a little, the long tongue in the mouth spit out from time to time, the green skin of the outer skin like a mushroom, people feel disgusted and a little worried about the monster.
According to the battle plan previously formulated, Paul was in charge of the front three, Sivir was the two on the left, and the other two adventurers were slightly weaker, dealing with the two on the right.
Paul's pressure was the greatest, and the three he faced were undoubtedly the largest of the seven, and the environment was still their advantage, so Paul ordered his men to take good positions and test the attack first.
I thought that the opponent was large and they could win with their speed, but the tongue that struck at lightning speed shattered Paul's thoughts, just one of his subordinates was knocked away with a weapon, and it should have been seriously injured if he could still stand up.
Paul drew his long sword and jumped in the rain, three sword shadows, blocking the tongue attack of a swamp frog, the other was pinned down by the magic of his teammates behind him, and there was another attack that Paul barely blocked with his sword, and his own hand was also shocked.
Paul was already close to the swamp frog, and with an "S" jittery, dodge the attack and headed towards the swamp frog's right leg, which was also clearly not stupid, and jumped away with a powerful hind leg.
But Paul's attack could not have been so easily dodged, and a flash of fire erupted from him, covering his whole body, and the speed was lifted like a humanoid fireball towards the swamp frog's belly.
The swamp frog suffered pain in the abdomen, and jumped away again, only to see that the abdomen was a full cut open, but Paul was not satisfied with this, the swamp frog was really thick skin.
"Keeping the magic all the time is not a long-term solution, and it has to be solved quickly. Paul once again caught up with the fleeing swamp frog, which jumped not far from the other two, and the three swamp frogs cooperated with each other.
Paul had to dodge the swamp frog's attack as best he could, and once again headed for the wounded swamp frog's belly, but this time his teammates were more prepared and waited for Paul to drive the beast into his magical area.
"Dungeon Hands!" Two earthy yellow hands emerged from the ground, the Dungeon Hands were made of pure magic, completely uncontrolled by the sticky rain, and they firmly grasped the swamp frog that wanted to jump away.
Paul succeeded as he wished, and then dozens of swords were struck under his abdomen, and the flames pierced a large hole in the swamp frog's abdomen, and the swamp frog struggled to resist, and his tongue was sticking out, but he couldn't touch Paul.
