Chapter 171: The Clam Girl
"Are you awake?"
While Leon was checking his physical condition, a soft and pleasant voice suddenly came from behind him.
Leon was startled, and his right hand instinctively reached for his calf, which was where the Tiger Thorn Saber was normally placed.
As soon as he touched the emptiness, he remembered that his tiger stabbing saber had not been able to withdraw it after stabbing the swamp black dragon python in the eye, and it was almost lost.
The muscles in his body tensed and relaxed suddenly, and Leon slowly turned around.
The scene presented in front of him made him stunned.
I saw that in the dark pool more than ten feet away, three beautiful girls were surfacing the water.
The long golden hair hangs down to the shoulders, the blue eyes are big and beautiful, the snow-jade skin flashes with a soft glow, the graceful ** is wrapped in a white ribbon, and the buds blooming on the chest are full of hands... The most peculiar thing is that when they are there, they all have a pair of open silver-white mussel shells, like outstretched wings.
Beautiful, mysterious... At this moment, Leon thought that he had met an angel who had fallen from the heavenly realm.
A name crept into Leon's mind.
He had seen descriptions of these beautiful creatures in the classics, they were a branch of the Continental Water Tribe, and they inhabited the depths of the Great Lake of Daze in few places.
Leon didn't expect to meet three clam girls here, and it seems that they should have saved him.
"May I ask you—" Leon straightened up and asked tentatively, "Did you save me?"
A mussel girl walked straight up from the pool, the dripping water shining on her bare skin, looking extraordinarily seductive.
The three mussel girls looked like three sisters, and their appearance was similar, and this mussel girl looked more mature.
"Yes, where are you from?" she asked curiously, "We found you in the river by the lake, when you were dying. ”
The clam girl stopped five or six feet away from Leon, a little wary of strangers.
"Thank you!" Leon pressed his right hand to his heart and saluted her in thanks, "I am Leon, the lord of the Sal Territory of the Kingdom of Beamon. ”
"Sal Ling... What kind of place is that?" The clam girl probably didn't think Leon was a bad person, so she took a few steps closer: "Why are you here?"
"I..." Leon thought about it, but decided to tell the truth: "I came to explore the nest of the swamp black dragon python, and I didn't expect to be discovered by it, and I was seriously injured when I escaped. ”
"Ahh
"Lord Black Dragon..."Leon felt a little wrong, and listened to the tone, could it be that these mussel girls were still the subordinates of the swamp black dragon python.
"You don't have to worry, we won't hand you over to it!"
It turned out that the mussel girl's name was Lina, and the two mussel girls behind her were her sisters, and their tribe had always lived a peaceful life in the deep lake of the Swamp.
But one day half a year ago, the swamp black dragon python suddenly broke into their tribal camp and killed all the men and old people in the tribe, leaving only more than thirty women and children.
The black dragon python threatened the lives of its children, and asked more than twenty mussel girls to collect swamp magic clam beads for its own use, and only recently migrated to this area.
The swamp clam is a very special beast, it is hidden deep in the mud of the swamp lake, and can give birth to beautiful and abundant water magic beads, this bead is one of the most favorite treasures of the swamp black dragon python.
However, it is impossible for the swamp black dragon python to collect the magic beads by itself, because the swamp demon mussels are usually hidden very deep and difficult to find, and when they encounter danger, they do not hesitate to break the beads to resist, and only experienced mussel girls can use special means to induce it to spit out the magic beads.
It is with this special ability that these mussel girls are able to avoid being poisoned, but under the control of the swamp black dragon python, their lives are also very difficult.
"A few days ago, one of my sisters couldn't go out for pearl diving because she was sick for a few days, and she was devoured alive!"
Crystal tears slipped from the corners of Reina's eyes, and she clenched her fists hard: "But our strength is too weak, it is not its opponent at all, and there are more than a dozen children..."
I see! Leon finally understood that this terrifying beast obviously possessed a high level of intelligence, and was able to communicate with other water tribes and control and use them.
This also means that it is definitely not an easy task to round up the swamp black dragon python.
Leon couldn't help but touch the spatial ring on the ring finger of his left hand, which contained the purple spirit crystal that he had only obtained in his life.
Leon is not out of danger now, although these mussel girls are very weak, but they are all proficient in the water surname, and Lina even has the ability to cast water spells, or she gave Leon the water healing treatment.
Coupled with his familiarity with the surrounding environment, as long as the few mussel girls in front of him are willing to help, he should be able to return to Green Heart Island safely, and then take the iron sheet home again, without taking any more risks.
But if Leon really did this, then he wouldn't be the real Leon, and his heart was stabbed fiercely when he looked at the mussel girl Rina with a sad face in front of him.
"Miss Lina, this time I came to surround and exterminate this black dragon python!" Leon said in a deep voice: "Please believe me, I will definitely find a way to completely solve this scourge and save you from the black dragon python!"
"This is also a reward for saving me!"
"Really?" Rena's eyes lit up, and she looked at Leon with antiquation: "But, it's so powerful, you..."
"I'm not fighting alone..."Leon smiled, "I have a group of brave warriors, and the support of the Naga tribe, so I don't have a chance of winning against the swamp black dragon python." ”
"Miss Reina, can you tell me everything you know about the swamp black dragon python? If you want to deal with the swamp black dragon python, I must at least know something about it, and it would be better if I could know its weaknesses!"
The mussel girls are pearl diving for the swamp black dragon python at night, and their understanding of the swamp black dragon python is undoubtedly relatively profound, and Leon really asked the right person.
Although Lina is not very confident in Leon, she has grasped a glimmer of hope, and she knows everything about Leon's inquiries.
"This is our secret hideout, originally to hide in case of danger, so Lord Black Dragon doesn't know it, you can stay here safely until dawn. The girl said, "Wait until tomorrow morning, someone will come and take you away!"
"We must leave now, we can't be discovered by Lord Black Dragon, you have to be careful yourself. ”
"Good!" Leon, of course, had no objection.
Rina Sakura opened her mouth, spit out a milky white bead that was round and jade, landed in the palm of her hand, and handed it to Leon: "This is the magic clam bead, when you leave, you can hold it in your mouth, so that you can breathe for a short time underwater." ”
Leon stretched out his hand to take the magic bead that still had the girl's body temperature, and nodded vigorously: "Please rest assured, I will definitely come back soon!"
Rina stared at Leon, suddenly stepped forward and gently stood on tiptoe, imprinting a kiss on Leon's cheek.
As soon as the kiss was touched, she took two steps back, and a faint flush appeared on her pretty face: "I believe in you, waiting for you to come back!"
With that, she quietly re-dived into the waterhole, and the other two clam girls quickly disappeared, leaving Leon with only an unforgettable and beautiful image.
Holding the magic bead in his hand, Leon exhaled a turbid breath, and his gaze became extremely resolute.
That night, in the dark and damp cavern, Leon slept soundly, and was always vigilant.
After all, outside, there is still a powerful demonic beast searching for his traces.
I don't know how much time passed, but in a daze, he heard a sound from the waterhole, and two mussel girls quietly appeared.
They were ordered by Rina to take Leon away.
The mussel girls are not free to move, and although the swamp black dragon python likes to sleep during the day, this does not mean that they can easily get away from it, as there are tentacle squid monsters watching their movements.
These black and dirty, slimy swamp monsters are extremely disgusting beings, they have a certain amount of intelligence, they like to cling to powerful beings like the black dragon python, and they are loyal doglegs.
Usually when the mussel girls are pearling at the bottom of the lake, the tentacle squid monster is watching from afar in the lake, and any movement will be reported to the swamp black dragon python immediately.
Speaking of which, Leon's luck is also really good, he used the water escape technique in the lake to escape, and was randomly teleported into the river without tentacle squid monsters, and happened to be discovered by Lina who returned from pearl diving, so he picked up a life.
The mussel girls have been with the tentacle squid monster for a long time, and they also have a deep understanding of this kind of monster, and they have long figured out a way to get rid of the surveillance, but there are definitely not many people out of the squid's sight, and they can't leave for a long time.
The two mussel girls also brought back news of the swamp black dragon python to Leon, who had been searching for Leon's traces almost all night, searching almost everywhere in the vicinity, and sending out all the tentacle squid monsters, and giving them extremely severe warnings.
It apparently hated Leon to the extreme, and tossed until the morning before returning to its lair to rest.
They took advantage of this opportunity to sneak into the hiding cave and take Leon away.
At the suggestion of the clam girl, Leon took the bead in his mouth, and a cold breath seeped out of the bead and quickly spread all over his body.
He held his breath and dived into the waterhole with the two mussel girls.
