"Hey, Butcher, I took out a couple of goblins and discovered their treasure room. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Hazel said that they didn't want the goblins, and they gave it all to us. There are about a thousand gold coins, how about half of them?"

"What is there to rejoice about, it is not enough to buy a good piece of armor. Butcher walked around the camp, looking for what he could use. In a few moments, he found what he was looking for: a crossbow.

"Damn, these goblins are just going to spoil things. Without maintenance, this bracket is a little loose. Butcher adjusted his weapon for a while, raised his head and found Zhao Mai looking at him, so he shouted, "What are you looking at? Don't you have your own business to do, or are you dizzy with joy because of a simple victory?"

"I discovered a secret, you have a lot of battlefield experience, and when you usually train me, you use a very comprehensive range of martial arts. I admire you quite a bit now. Zhao Mai said: "Of course, the way you roar is not very good-looking, but this is a trivial matter compared to your battlefield ability." ”

"What are you talking about, you stinky boy?" Butcher snorted from his nose and said disdainfully, "Do you think that my skills are all acquired on the battlefield, because the more I fight and kill, the more powerful I become?"

"Isn't that so?"

"Fart! There are only two ways in this world to improve your abilities, one is called talent and the other is called hard work. The battlefield is nothing more than a test, and I have never heard of anyone who can keep testing to improve themselves. Except for those who are gifted or blessed by God, like your little girlfriend, everyone else who wants to improve can only practice, keep practicing, and not have a moment to relax. Now, carry the 1,000 gold coins you said and keep going!"

With more weight on his body, Zhao Mai is still constantly challenging his limits. Butcher is right, the accumulation of practice is the only way to improve yourself, and there is no shortcut to becoming truly strong. In battle, he first used the power of grenades, and then used muskets, all of which were foreign objects, and his martial arts skills were still stretched and needed a lot of training. He also calmed down, and in the scolding of Butcher from time to time, he improved his body, martial arts, and battlefield intuition and other skills bit by bit.

The group tore a small hole in the goblin's outer defense, and quickly rushed into the vast swamp before the other goblins could react. Here, the swarthy soft mud reigns supreme, and the green water that smells of corruption soaks the legs. Based on the map of the "cuckoo", they were able to roughly determine the direction and were able to walk in a relatively safe area. But even so, the bones of creatures drowned in the swamp can still be seen on a regular basis.

The journey was painful, and the mosquitoes and flies didn't seem to know that winter was coming, and they were still harassing them. The bloodsuckers and parasites lurking in the water, without a moment of idleness, take every opportunity to crawl towards people. Later, everyone found that the leggings could greatly avoid the risk of being attacked by insects in the water, so they all learned from Zhao Mai and Hazel and tied their ankles and trouser legs with canvas.

Paladins are blessed with divine immunity to all natural diseases, but they are not immune to the itching left by mosquito bites. Positive energy therapy doesn't do anything about it. On the contrary, Zhao Mai, who is a druid, can use the Force of Nature to promote the body's natural recovery and alleviate the pain of the ladies. There are eight people in a group, six people can heal, and one person can use druid spells, such a high proportion of healers is quite rare in the adventurer team. Therefore, despite the very difficult environment of the swamp, everyone was able to stay healthy and, more importantly, maintain normal combat effectiveness.

Purifying food and making water, these two druidic prayer mantras played a very important role. The humid, warm natural environment is the enemy of food on the march, and dehydration is one of the most dangerous enemies on the march. Zhao Mai took care of the team carefully, even if he was overworked, he still didn't dare to relax for a moment. Thankfully, the magical little flower constantly provided him with the pure natural force, which allowed him to keep up with the pace of the group, albeit in a very awkward way.

After four days of marching in the swamp, everyone was in the same mess. Even Butcher, who has never been rough, now has the greatest wish to step on a hard ground and take a hot bath. He was sure that he hadn't prayed to any god about it, so it was the Paladins who had received the attention and care of Goddess Iomeda that allowed them to get out of the swamp for a while.

The mud swamp beneath their feet was still soft, but the place they now set foot on was overgrown with reeds and wild aunts, and standing on them could avoid the intrusion of the water. And a few miles away, they saw a huge mangrove forest, and faintly found huts hidden among the trunks.

"Damn, it's finally here. Butcher wiped his face with a towel, but the more he wiped it, the dirtier it became. He looked at it, was reluctant to throw it away, and stuffed it back into his pocket.

The paladins were no better, with thatched cloaks and sticks in their hands, looking like woodland savages from behind, and no one could have imagined that they were the expeditionary knights of the Radiant Sword Goddess. Stripped of its elegance and brilliance, the natural wilderness has always brought out the most essential aspects of living beings, and it is difficult to accommodate anything other than survival and adaptation.

"Thanks to the guidance of the Goddess, our journey has finally come to an end. Hazel sighed heartily. Although it seems miserable now, it is much better than she imagined. Using the map that Butcher had found, they were able to bypass the goblin's fixed camp, and they came over without a few battles along the way. And in the second half, Mike's druid skills play a very important role, which is very helpful in maintaining morale and stamina. If it was just the six of them, although it could not be said that they would not be able to complete the task, it would definitely be more than ten times more difficult than now.

Zhao Mai followed at the back of the team, beside him was the reserve grain that had already become a mud egg. As soon as he stepped on the meadow, he shook his body vigorously, splashing mud everywhere. Zhao Mai was too lazy to wipe it, and reluctantly raised his arm to block his eyes, even if he finished the protection. His physical strength has reached the limit, and even Xiaohua can't pull it back.

The closer you get to the mangroves, the stronger the natural force becomes, and the faster the plants will grow and the body will recover. When they entered the root system of the mangrove forest, everyone was surprised to find that the fatigue on their bodies was rapidly decreasing. Zhao Mai had seen the Enlightenment Tree, but even if he was enlightened with the help of elixirs, it was not as strong as the natural force it is now. He crouched down and stroked the roots with his hands, hoping to figure out why.

The state of the mangrove forest is somewhat similar to that of the small flowers, which are constantly absorbing the natural forces around them and transforming them into new types with their own characteristics. The small flowers are transformed into a neutral and peaceful appearance, while the mangroves are a little domineering and strong. Zhao Mai's fingers slid over the roots of the tree, and his fingertips clearly felt a large amount of Force working in the roots. It's as if the roots of a tree are hollow inside, and the Force flows like a stream.

This is extremely abnormal, the natural force is not an elemental power, how can it be gathered to such an extent? Thinking of this, Zhao Mai stood up and warned: "Something is wrong here, let's exit first, and come back when I figure it out." ”

Before the words fell, the mangrove forest suddenly trembled, the Force suddenly accelerated, and the surging vitality rushed towards the face like a tsunami. In an instant, everyone felt their bodies full, and their state was many times better than usual. Everyone felt that they were as strong as bears, especially those who were ready to hibernate after eating and drinking.

At this time, a faint spell came, and everyone was sleepy, and they just wanted to dig a hole in the ground and sleep comfortably. They squint and look around, there are no holes in the ground, and soft thatch is suitable. One by one, everyone fell limply.

Only Zhao Mai was still standing awake, looking at everything that was happening around him in surprise.
