Chapter 9: The Frog Feast
Everyone was draped in a layer of visible magic film, which was the spell that Thunder Pattern said was used to fight against the barrier, but through this magic film, Ling Chen could still smell a disgusting stench. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After entering Kong Delin, the entire exploration team became cautious, and the city lord Ohan did not accompany them into Kong Delin, after all, this city lord still has a lot of things to deal with, but the garrison commander Lei Wen entered the forest with Ling Chen, in addition to him, there is also the magician, as well as the five-person team of the two Order Legions, plus the six people brought by Ling Chen, a total of eighteen people.
It has been a while since I entered the outer forest, and there are fewer and fewer buildings belonging to human beings around me, and people have all been evacuated from the outer forest a long time ago.
The team stopped in front of a wooden hut and looked at the debris in the doorway, which presumably belonged to a woodcutter's house. The soldier opened the wooden door, Ling Chen walked in, the smell inside the room was not much fresher than the outside, there was still food in the wet room that had not had time to be processed, Ling Chen walked to the table, reached out to pick up the apples on the table, but Ling Chen could not do so. Seeing that the apple that had no luster was already rotten like soft clay, he gently pinched it with his hand, and instead of picking it up, he directly crushed it. Ling Chen frowned, threw away the glove covered with puree, and put on a new one. His gaze was fixed on the round pupil under the table that was just in line with his gaze. How could Ling Chen have thought that he would meet the culprit of this incident so soon, as Orlan had told him before, his body as big as a little goat, with that ugly face, was indeed a little scary, it should be said that it was disgusting.
Obviously, this guy doesn't like to let people stare at it like this, suddenly opened his big mouth, and his flexible tongue shot at Ling Chen like a sharp arrow, Liao Chen, who had been guarding Ling Chen's side, was quick with his eyes, grabbed Ling Chen's shoulder, pulled it back, and then raised his hand, pulled out his broadsword and cut off the toad's tongue, dark green liquid splashed out of the wound, the two frowned, Liao Qian blocked in front, and the dark green liquid splashed on his body, fortunately, Liao Qian was wearing thick armor, and a few green smoke rose from between.
"Your Highness, be careful!, the blood of this poisonous frog is not only poisonous, but also very corrosive!" Lu Feng reminded Ling Chen worriedly. As soon as Liu Feng spoke, Liao Qian backhanded a sword, and the blade pierced the head of the poisonous frog.
Suddenly, the whole poisonous frog was like a deflated balloon, purple poisonous mist poured out from the hollow of the skull, everyone took a few steps back, watching the mist dissipate in the air, the surrounding barrier seemed to be much thicker, and the body of the poisonous frog was much smaller than before, and the greasy skin was wrinkled and fluffy.
Lei Wen stepped forward and carefully probed the corpse of this poisonous armored frog, and suddenly said to Ling Chen: "Your Highness, judging from the bones, it seems that it is still the size of a normal demon armored frog!"
"I see, I must have absorbed too much barrier qi and been stretched out!" Yuliu said as she stepped forward, squatted down, and looked at the ugly body on the ground with a disgusted expression: "Hey~ It's disgusting to take a closer look! Let's get out of here quickly." ”
Ling Chen nodded, he didn't want to stay here longer, although he already had protection, but the poisonous gas in the body of the poisonous frog made the air in this room even more stinky, and he walked out of the wooden house, but he couldn't help frowning The air around him didn't seem to have changed much, Ling Chen really wanted to leave Kong Delin directly, but it was undeniable that after seeing the demon armor frog, Ling Chen really had some interest in this monster mutation.
"Your Highness," Lu Feng walked up to Ling Chen uneasily, "I heard that although this poison-armored frog does not like to live in groups, once it encounters danger, it will emit a special venom to inform other poisonous armored frogs. ”
"In other words, our next whereabouts, the nearby poison armor frogs will notice it, right?" Ye Xiao said.
"Not only that!They should take the initiative to attack us!!" As soon as Ryufeng's words fell, a scream was heard not far away.
Several people frowned and ran towards the place where the voice came from, and a member of the exploration team, the warrior, fell to the ground in his stomach, his face turned blue, and he knew at a glance that he had been poisoned, and in front of him were three poisonous armored frogs the size of small goats, obviously he did not have the good luck of Ling Chen, nor did he have the skills of Liao Chen. Thunder Stripe's exploration team of five people in a team, one person fell, the other four, one of the team members who took care of the fall, and the other three faced three poison frogs, these team members were carefully selected by Thunder Ray, after all, their job is not only to simply investigate, but more importantly to protect the safety of the prince. The blade pierced the body of the poisonous frog one after another, and like the one killed by Liao Qian before, a thick poisonous mist erupted from the mouth of the sore, and then shrank like a deflated balloon.
Lei Wen stepped forward: "What's the matter? Lu Ou." ”
"We've been attacked!General!" said the team member named Lu Ou, "Bao Gui was walking in the grass when he was suddenly surrounded by these three poisonous frogs, and he had already fallen to the ground when we arrived. ”
Ling Chen walked in front of the team member who fell to the ground, and listened to the conversation just now, Ling Chen already knew that this person was called Bao Gui, looking at his appearance, his mouth was constantly foaming at the mouth, and Liufeng walked over with the magician Keith, and said to him: "You told me, you know some medical magic, right?"
Keith nodded, put his hands on Bao Gui's body, and the palms of his hands glowed with a faint green light, but he frowned, stood up, and shook his head at Ling Chen: "He is too deeply poisoned, my magic can't save him." He must be taken out immediately...... But I guess it's too late!"
"Too late?" Ryufeng frowned: "Oran has already arranged for the best doctors in Gothhe City to support us at any time, how can it be too late?"
Keith shook his head: "No, this poisonous frog is much more poisonous than I thought, and it has already flowed into his heart along his blood." What he needs is an immediate blood exchange!"
"What did you say!?"
"Anyway, he's hopeless, isn't he?" Ling Chen said coldly as he looked at Bao Gui who was twitching on the ground.
Keith nodded: "Now he's going to die at any moment!"
Ling Chen pulled out his sword and handed it to Thunder Pattern: "At least! let him go more quickly." ”
Lei Wen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't bear to take the prince's sword, and then pierced Bao Gui's heart with a sword.
Ling Chen nodded with satisfaction and walked up to Lu Ou: "You take his body out of Kong Delin......" Ling Chen's words were not finished.
"There's a situation!" the alarm of the probe team was heard not far away. One, two, three, dozens of demon-armored frogs burst out from different directions, surrounding the entire exploration team.
"Your Highness, we are surrounded!"
"Then kill it!" Ye Xiao said and pierced the poisonous frog in front of him with a sword, covering his face to prevent the poisonous gas from seeping in, at this time, a poisonous frog that had been in ambush for a long time behind Ye Xiao suddenly spit out his tongue and rushed towards Ye Xiao, seeing that it was about to hit Ye Xiao, a knife light slashed, and the dagger of the phantom was glowing with cold light, cutting off the tongue of the poisonous frog, and Ye Xiao looked at each other slightly, and raised his foot to the poisonous frog, the phantom's leg had not fully recovered, but it did not affect the phantom's action. Following Ye Xiao's movements, the exploration team also began to fight with the poisonous frogs.
These monsters are indeed not the opponents of these elites, and they fell one after another, but the members of the exploration team did not relax in the slightest, because the more poisonous frogs they killed, the more poisonous frogs appeared around them, as if they could not be killed. However, everyone's physical strength is limited, and their movements are becoming more and more sluggish.
Ling Chen was surrounded by the warriors who protected him in the center, and even Ryufeng, who was much thinner than himself, desperately spread his hands to protect himself. Ling Chen was very curious, why could he let them pay for their lives when they fell to the ground? For those soldiers who they had never seen before, perhaps because Ling Chen died, they not only had to lose their lives because of the unfavorable punishment of the escort, but also their own families, so what about the higher status? For example, Liao Qian, he would not lose his life because of this, it would indeed affect his family, but compared to his own life, was it worth it? If he really had any concerns, then Liufeng? No matter how much he said about his life and death, the impact on his career had nothing to do with life and death, but why would he be so desperate for himself? He couldn't help frowning, he hated this feeling, this kind of kindness that he didn't know, because he didn't know what he would pay for such kindness, or he didn't know what they were expecting. Everyone was busy dealing with this poisonous frog, or protecting the prince, but Ling Chen was the most relaxed person at the moment, his eyes were fixed on the dead Bao Gui who had fallen to the ground, if it wasn't for my operation, he wouldn't have to pay for his life, right? Looking at the soldiers who were fighting, should I be responsible for their lives? The answer was very simple, Ling Chen shook his head, and said to himself: "What does it matter to me whether they live or die?" is just the price paid for his own choice. That's why I tried to avoid it and made a choice.
"Your Highness, there are more and more poisonous frogs!What should we do now?Do you want to evacuate?" said Thunder Lane suddenly.
So such a person who can't guess the voice of his boss should be the limit to the status of the commander of the garrison, right?
"Anyway, we have to ask for the smell on our foreheads first!" Yuliu said loudly, "Brother, haven't you investigated these frogs? Is there any way?"
"It takes a long time for this smell to dissipate naturally, but the information I checked records that it can be diluted when it encounters water!"
"Thunder Pattern, is there water around here?" Ye Xiao asked as he fought.
Thunder Lane looked around: "Yes, there is a small river in the west, come with me!" said with a sword to split the poison armor frog in front of him, and led the team to move towards the west.
