Chapter 65: The Swamp of Foul Whispers (1)

"Bang bang...... Boom"

The heavy horse's hooves beat the ground rhythmically, the windbreaks on both sides of the road kept moving far behind him, and the increasingly prosperous Heishui Town was left behind by Lu Bin, and when he looked back, there was only a bunch of houses of different heights in his field of vision, low like building block toys.

"Perhaps in the eyes of the Great Lords of the North, Blackwater is a pawn for them, and Lord Nell Austin's successful frontier and geographical advantage adjacent to the Grey Forest are undoubtedly the bridgehead for an attack on Elondale in the depths. No matter how hard the natives try to block, even if they win a victory, they will only have the upper hand temporarily, the lords of the northern realm have deep potential, and no matter how many defeats they lose, they will come back, and if the natives lose once, they will be doomed. ”

Lu Bin's willingness to pack up Elondale and take it away became stronger, and he began to plan various ways to deal with it, and before he knew it, the wide avenue gradually disappeared and was replaced by a muddy path.

The irregular bumps woke Lu Bin from his contemplation, and he looked up at the sky, and it was already dusk, and he was surprised to find that his thinking had taken so much time.

He cherished the gentle reins of horsepower, and the military horses that were forced to retire due to injuries were quite spiritual, and gradually slowed down the pace of pace. Trapped in a carriage and unable to stretch its body, it finally got a chance, and it did its best to satisfy its new owner.

Lu Bin reached out and touched the wet mane of the mount, feeling the surging vitality coming from his palm, as if he understood the reason why it was so excited. Thinking to himself, he was about to enter the swamp area anyway, and it was definitely not possible to run quickly, so he turned over and dismounted and led it forward.

After four or five hours of wild running, far away from the scope of human civilization activities, Lu Bin looked around and saw that there was no uncultivated wasteland.

The once verdant weeds withered yellow by the autumn wind, the wild vitality is gone, and the ground is like being subdued by the power of the season, and living humbly in order to preserve the seeds of life.

Unfortunately, a snowstorm will soon come, and the weeds of the wasteland will be completely wiped out in the cold winter storm and snowstorm, unless their seeds are pecked by the birds of the past and brought to the warm south, so that they can continue to reproduce and life will continue to be passed on in the new environment.

Lu Bin couldn't help but shake his head, he rarely revealed his true emotions in front of people, and in the unaccompanied world, the unfamiliar environment would only make him hide all his emotions and hide them tightly in the depths of his heart.

Lu Bin led the horse and continued to walk forward for about half an hour, the path that stretched forward disappeared completely, the late autumn night came earlier than usual, the cold breeze swept the ground, and the thin mist spontaneously condensed.

The mount that had just established some friendship snorted, and some resistance was reluctant to move forward, Lu Bin immediately understood, and very simply stopped, and with the help of the twilight of dusk, he found a dry flat land nearby.

He untied the horse's chew, and the heavy pig iron was thrown on the grass by Lu Bin, allowing the mount to move freely, but he wielded a one-handed sword, collected a large pile of hay, and made it into a bed for tonight's rest.

As the sun set in the west, and the night took over to rule the sky, Lu Bin found that the fog was gradually thickening, and there seemed to be humanoid creatures moving in the depths.

He immediately gathered up the hay and lit the fire with the sparks from the flints colliding with each other, and the warm air spread to the surroundings, and the fog no longer approached, as if hitting an invisible wall, rolling upside down and slowly receding.

A bonfire in the wasteland was so conspicuous that it quickly attracted the attention of the dark people who were hiding their heads and tails, but they restrained each other and no one dared to make a move, but fortunately, the adventurers and mercenaries who followed behind the mage Rez seemed to be approaching Lu Bin's location quickly with this goal.

In this case, the inhabitants of darkness are even more unlikely to attack, and can only retreat with remorse, these people have found that the adventurers who approach quickly are pleasant, and even have their natural predators.

Lu Bin used the untied saddle as a pillow, lying on the thick hay, slowly enjoying the sourdough bread that could only be used to satisfy hunger, which was the dry food recommended by the steward of the carriage and horse shop when the deal was concluded, and the characteristics of diversified business were thus very well reflected.

"Boom...... Bang Bang"

The sound of rapid footsteps stepping on the hay, Lu Bin knew the identity of the person at a glance, his left hand reached into the money bag and grabbed a copper plate, and his right hand was aimed at the suspicious direction, and the bracelet composed of zigzag lightning patterns was like a rune, which was gradually lit up after being infused with mana.

The arcane missile's spell model appears out of thin air, a two-dimensional flat pattern, materialized by filling with arcane energy. The blunt sagittal missile is formed quickly, like a sharp arrow in a tightly stringed crossbow, a critical state that can be activated at any time.

"Who is it?" Lu Bin asked, of course he knew the identities of these people, but according to the rules, he still had to ask.

No one answered in the dark, I don't know if I was not available, or I didn't care at all, but I didn't know that doing so just happened to Lu Bin's wishes.

"Die!" he reached forward with a gesture, and the arcane missile hit the target with great speed, and the unlucky man shook his body and fell to the ground.

The people who were frightened by this blow immediately stopped, and the black shadow led by them stood up and shouted: "Slow, slow! We are all adventurers, our own people." ”

Lu Bin really wanted to open his mouth and scold him, "Who is your own person with you", but considering that he has just obtained a legal status, he really can't go too far.

"Your own people, come over slowly, show your face in the firelight, let me see it carefully, make sure it's true, and then I can allow you to come." ”

The group of adventurers who stopped on the spot couldn't help but curse, but lowered their voices for fear of being heard by the mage, which showed that they were not smart people who acted recklessly without knowing the rules.

The leader was a senior professional, and he knew that in the wilderness, if he wanted to win the trust of a mage, he really had to follow the rules of the other party.

So he slowly walked to the campfire very cooperatively, showed his public face in front of Lu Bin, and only after getting permission did he signal to his partner behind him.

"I'm very sorry for the fact that some dark creatures were wandering around just now, scared away by the sound of your neat footsteps coming, especially for inadvertently injuring one of you. ”

When Lu Bin saw the eleven strangers in adventurer costumes approaching him, he changed his reclining posture to sitting upright, and apologized to the leader of this adventurer team.

"I've got some healing potions that work well, can you make amends for my mistakes by bringing the innocent injured member over and letting me treat him. ”

Lu Bin used the method of slapping a sweet date to gradually soothe the injustice in the adventurer's heart, and immediately the two of them cooperated to carry the handicapped partner to the mage on a simple stretcher.

With the help of the light of the bonfire, Lu Bin could see the injury of this unlucky ghost clearly, the power of the arcane missile was quite good, even if this person reacted at the time and used a shield to block and weaken the power of the spell, the aftermath of the spell still caused multiple injuries in his chest.

Lu Bin mixed the moon well water with a clear spring, put it in a kettle, poured it into the wounded, carefully cleaned the wound, and removed the wood chips that were splashed when the shield was shattered, and the person's injuries were roughly good.

The original sigh of pain quickly subsided, after all, the healing effect of the moon well water was just as effective even if it was diluted by the spring water.

The two sides who don't fight and don't know each other sit in front of the bonfire together, although the leader of the adventurer team is pure-hearted, but Lu Bin has no appreciation, pretending not to understand what you say, and always deliberately tearing away the topic at a critical time.

The two sides exchanged words a few times before the leader of the adventurer's team understood, but in this way, if he didn't succeed in wooing himself, the other competitors would definitely fail.

"Lord Rez, the adventure of the lone ranger may exist elsewhere, but in the treacherous northern wilderness, our best bet is to stay together and help each other survive. ”

Lu Bin nodded in agreement, "That's right, Mr. Kurt from the Silver Hand, your opinion is very suitable for the vast majority of adventurers, but unfortunately I am not an ordinary person." ”

The two-gun Kurt knew that the other party was reminding him of his identity, and he was really unwilling to let go of such a real-combat spellcaster.

"Lord Rez, the Filthy Swamp is the most dangerous area in the territory that the Austin family has successfully pioneered, and it is too risky for you to act alone, please allow us to be by your side at all times. ”

Lu Bin didn't nod or shake his head, just sighed softly: "I have a heart, but my destination is the core area of the swamp, the ruined castle left behind by the destruction of the dark wizard." I'm trying to find something valuable in there, and you'd better not follow up. ”

Despite his premonition, Kurt felt a headache when he heard what the mage said.

"Lord Rez, the castle in the Filthy Swamp, even if it is a small castle of the Murmur level among the Dark Wizards, is not an ordinary spellcaster can come and go freely, there are not completely cleaned corners, and it is said that there are terrible undead creatures roaming. ”

Lu Bin was silent on the surface, but he was secretly laughing in his heart: "That just happened to my heart!"
