The army has entered the heart of the Deadwood Forest.

The further you go to the center, the fewer the Dryads appear. The surrounding trees also thinned out, and the black ground began to become muddy and damp, and a swamp appeared.

A skeleton soldier got stuck in the swamp, quickly sank, and was quickly swallowed up by the swamp. Gowei ordered the army to bypass these swamps. The terrain of the Deadwood Forest was more complex than he had ever expected.

Soon, the Dryad was wiped out, and no new Dryad appeared. The various reconnaissance teams sent back the news, and each entered an open field.

Ge Wei led the army in the middle through the last sparse woods, and his eyes suddenly opened up.

It turned out that in the center of this dead wood forest, there was an endless depression, full of large and small swamps. As far as the eye can see, all you can see is a bubbling black mire. But if a skeleton or ghoul accidentally gets into one foot, it's not so easy to come up with it.

Riding on the undead war horse angrily, Ge Wei saw far away, and he clearly saw that there were groups of shadows floating in the center of the swamp in the distance. There are people who also have animals. All wandering aimlessly around a glowing spot in the center of the swamp.

The swamp was even darker than it had just been in the woods. The black mire absorbs what little light it has from the sky. In such a dim environment, except for Ge Wei, the eyes of the others were completely dark, and they couldn't tell where was the hard land and where the swampy abyss was. One wrong step, the little life is over.

In this terrain, the army of the undead is also limited, and the clumsy skeletons are not good at maneuvering in such complex environments. So Ge Wei had to control several squads of ghouls. Split off and head ahead. He wanted to see what was in the glowing heartland inside.

Even so. There were still a few ghouls who unfortunately fell into the swamp and were swallowed by the swamp in an instant. Even some of the seemingly hard ground. I don't know if I don't step on it, but the ground collapses instantly, and it's also a swamp. Surrounded by traps, several teams of ghouls managed to approach the center of the swamp.

However, it was at this time that the ghosts floating around the center of the swamp also spotted the ghoul's arrival. One after another, the ghosts pounced on the ghouls.

"Not good. ”

Ge Wei didn't expect these ghosts to be so keen, and they could spot him from such a distance. Moreover, these ghosts and ghosts are not ordinary soul bodies at first glance, but are imprisoned here for some reason, and they are also used as a defense mechanism like the dryad.

Ghouls can't beat ghosts. Because ghosts are pure soul bodies. There were no bodies.

I think that at the beginning, not long after Ge Wei was reborn as a skeleton, he was attacked by a ghost. Ghosts are immune to normal physical attacks and will use psychic shocks against enemies. Ghosts can only be dealt with with by using the same psychic shock, or by using magic.

Ghouls obviously don't have this ability, they belong to a purely physical attack class, and they can only be beaten passively against ghosts.

Fortunately, Ge Wei had no intention of pestering these ghosts, and sent ghouls over just to get a closer look at the glowing area in the center of the swamp. This distance was enough for Ge Wei to observe with the help of the ghoul's eyes.

"Hey, there's a quagmire in the middle of this swamp too? This quagmire is a bit peculiar, and there seems to be something glowing in the pool. ”

Ge Wei observed that there was also a quagmire on the other side, and a faint blue glow emanated from the quagmire. And the ghosts and ghosts around the quagmire. I was attracted by this dark blue light, and kept circling around the quagmire.

Seeing that a group of ghosts were about to pounce, Ge Wei controlled a group of ghouls to turn around and leave. The ghost can't keep up with the ghoul in the back. After chasing for a short distance, he gave up the pursuit. After wandering in place for a short while, he returned to the center of the glowing mire and circled around it.

Through this temptation. Ge Wei knew at least two things.

"These ghosts and ghosts should not be aggressive, and their mission is to guard the glowing mire in the center. There must be something in the quagmire that attracts them and keeps them from getting closer. ”

All the ghosts swirled around the glowing mire at a certain distance, and Ge Wei noticed that no ghost could go any further, as if there was an invisible barrier separating the mire.

"Huh? That's ......."

While thinking about it, Ge Wei suddenly noticed a sudden phenomenon.

I saw that in the glowing quagmire in the center of the swamp, the blue light suddenly flourished, and the ghosts and ghosts that were close to me immediately scattered and fled far away. Then, in the mire where the blue light was getting brighter and brighter, a ghost suddenly rushed out, and this ghost was quickly thrown out as if it had been spit out of the mire.

As the newly emerged ghost was tossed next to the other ghosts, the blue light in the mire suddenly dimmed and returned to its previous brightness.

At the same time, all the ghosts, including the newly emerged ghost, began to approach the glowing mire again, circling around the mire, unable to get any closer beyond the invisible barrier.

"What the hell is this? Can you spit out ghosts?"

This scene surprised Ge Wei. When he came to the undead plane, it was the first time he had encountered such a strange scene.

The ghost-spitting mire had regained its brightness, and it was still glowing slowly and faintly blue. The things in the pool made Ge Wei even more curious, and he guessed that the eight achievements were the things in the pool that were doing the trick.

Not long afterward, the glowing mire lit up again.

Just like just now, after the blue light of the quagmire was flourishing, another ghost was spit out. Soon it calmed down again.

Including Ge Wei, everyone stared at this scene curiously without blinking. This strange scene is unheard of. A swamp that can spit out ghosts? If you don't see it with your own eyes, anyone would think it's a fantasy.

Ge Wei did not take countermeasures for the time being, but just observed. In this way, after more than ten minutes passed, Ge Wei and the others observed a total of seven times of glowing quagmire and spitting out ghosts.

The number of ghosts spit out at a time varies from one at a time to two at a time, and at most three at a time. There seems to be no pattern to follow after a few times.

Ge Wei also noticed that these souls that were spit out would show a short period of confusion at first. That's right, it's confusion. And Ge Wei found through careful observation that these just spit out are not counted as "ghosts", but "souls".

The soul is the remnant of the soul energy of the newly deceased, which can retain some self-consciousness for a short period of time, and then is sucked into the world of the dead through some fixed ways, and is contaminated with the breath of the dead, it will gradually lose its consciousness before death, and transform into the lowest level of ghost class undead in the world of the dead: ghosts.

This important discovery gave Ge Wei a guess about this glowing quagmire.

"Could it be that this is the entrance to the world of the living? The souls of the dead in the world of the living enter the world of the dead from here? No wonder there are so many ghosts and ghosts gathered here. These ghosts keep circling around the luminaries because the luminaries are the entrance to that world, and they want to go back!"

Before collecting his soul on the battlefield, Ge Wei saw the big whirlpool in the sky of that world. The whirlpool leads here—the land of death. Now Ge Wei is eighty percent sure that the other end of the maelstrom is here, this glowing quagmire.

When three souls were spat out in a quagmire, Ge Wei found a relatively small soul that looked like it was not a human, but some kind of animal, much like a sheep. After the sheep's soul was thrown out of the glowing mire, it was contaminated with the breath of necromancy, and soon became blurred, losing its original form, and becoming foggy like other ghosts.

It was from here that Ge Wei was sure of his guess.

"It's a great place. Ge Wei secretly said in his heart: "This is equivalent to saying that it is a bridge between the two worlds." Souls from another world will come here in a steady stream, tossed out of the mire. As long as this quagmire is controlled, it is equivalent to having a stable arsenal for the production of ghosts. No wonder there are so many ghosts and ghosts in this dead wood, as well as those ghost possessed dryads. The owner here really picks the place. ”

That's when it happened.

A powerful mental fluctuation swooped in from far and near. A voice mixed with doubt and annoyance sounded in Ge Wei's mind:

"Who are you, and why are you here?" (to be continued......)
