Chapter 24: The Swamp Serpents
Three days later, the three Francis finally reached their destination.
"This is it, isn't it? It's a day later than planned!The road to the dark forest is really hard to walk!" Francis stood on a tree, looking at the swamp in front of him, and after a few days of traveling, Francis was a little overwhelmed. Although there was no problem with his physical strength at all, his nerves began to fatigue after nearly half a month of traveling.
The swamp in front of him was eerie and terrifying, and he couldn't see the slightest anger, and the insects and birds in the forest couldn't be heard in the vicinity. The shallow waters of the swamp are home to some endemic shade plants, and a grayish-white mist fills the area. Looking at the gloomy swamp, the three of Francis knew that this was not an ordinary mist, but a swamp gas, and it was easy to poison people if inhaled.
"This is it, but it's worse than I thought!" Diess frowned, the situation in front of him was a bit difficult to handle!"The methane here is too strong, although I can hold my breath for a long time, but the sight distance here is too short, I can't figure out how far ahead!
"Trouble, my light level is too low, and the magic shield is not available now, which is a bit troublesome! Do you want to return in vain?" Francis was depressed, even though the light system could perform life-saving magic such as healing and restoration at the initial level. However, the attack power of low-level light mages is not comparable to that of other systems, (the first, second, and third orders are low-level, the fourth, fifth, and sixth orders are medium-level, the seventh and eighth orders are high-level, and then the upper level is the holy level) The only attack method of low-level light mages is only one holy light bullet. Light attack magic has high requirements for the user's magic and mental power, so generally low-level light mages basically have no attack power, and the magic power is less, and the recovery technique can't release a few, which are the key protection objects in the team, and only the fifth-order light mage can have two attack methods, light archery and arrow rain technique, and the sixth order can learn the holy light shield. At this time, the light mage began to fork, able to attack and defend, and had strong healing ability, compared to the low-level with an embarrassing position, the high-level light system was very popular. With Francis's powerful spiritual power, he can cast the Holy Light Shield beyond the level, but now he can't touch this kind of magic, and it is impossible to study it by himself, after all, releasing magic is a very rigorous course, and if you don't have magic backlash, you will die!
"Young Master, do I have a way to solve the methane in front of me?" Saber said calmly on the side, "My Wind King Barrier can last for a long time if it is cast slowly!"
Francis's eyes lit up, "Yes, Leah's Wind King Barrier can release a lot of wind, enough to blow away the swamp gas!"
"It doesn't matter, it's just that at this level, I'm still fine, and with the young master's magic as a backing, I can last a long time, enough for us to get out of this swamp. Feeling Francis's concern, Saber's heart was a little sweet, but his face remained as calm as ever.
"Okay then! I can't hold it, just use my magic power, my mental power is high, and it's still easy to maintain the magic power of the fourth order!" Francis nodded at Saber and looked at Dis, "Take it out, you can use it now." ”
Dice nodded and took out a few long leather boots from the space ring, which were made of the fur of Warcraft, which was very waterproof and very good, and the soles of the feet were made very large to prevent them from falling into the mud. "Put this on your feet, these days you have killed a few monsters with rough skin and thick flesh, this is made of their fur, in case there are any poisonous insects in the water, it will not be good to be bitten!"
The three of them put leather boots on their feet, and the leather boots were so long that they all reached their knees when they were put on.
"On the top of the knee, tie the opening tightly with a rope here, and no bugs will run in!" Dees gave a demonstration to Francis and the others.
"Dies's craftsmanship is good, but the soles of his shoes are too big to affect his movements!" Francis tried to take two steps.
"It's not that powerful, it's just glued together!" Dees also tried to take two steps, "It's okay, in this case, you will be fine when you walk into the quagmire!
"Leave it to me!" Saber nodded to the two.
"I'll go to the front to open the way, you follow where I stayed, Saber walks in the middle, and you are responsible for blowing up the biogas!
"Okay!" Francis is not a reckless person, and Diese has his own arrangement, so he naturally has his reasons.
Dees picked a shallow spot and walked forward, Saber followed, and Francis was behind. When he got close to the methane, Saber began to release the enchantment "Huhu~~~" The visible wind emanated from Saber's hand, blowing out the methane around the three of them.
"A very practical seal indeed. Diese watched as the biogas was blown away, "That's all right, let's go!" ......
The three of them soon entered the depths of the swamp, where the swamp was so thick that they could no longer see the road ahead, and could only judge the direction by the faint light of the sun in the sky. "Hurry up!" said Dees suddenly, "seems to have disturbed some of the sleeping guys!"
"Mmmmmm
"Okay!" Dis immediately slowly released the momentum of his seven senses, and bursts of golden light scattered out in all directions. The demonic beasts have a strong perception of danger, and the surrounding demonic beasts felt the power of Dis, and immediately stopped in place, opened their throats and roared a few times, and stopped advancing.
"Looks like it's working!" Dice could feel the dispersal of the demonic beasts around him.
"The little universe is so convenient!" said Francis enviously!
"Young Master, don't say that!The mage's perception is very strong, and the young master's spiritual power is the strongest spiritual power I have seen now, even the summoner of that holy rank is not as good as you! If you practice spiritual power often in the future, you can also do something like me!" There are many magical professions in this world, and there are definitely countless masters, and he will not underestimate other professions because of his powerful little universe.
"Whew! the water is starting to get lighter, and it looks like we're coming to the end!" said Dhy, walking ahead as he searched for directions with the small universe. "Follow this direction, walk a little longer, and you will be on the other side!hmm! what a trouble?" said Diese's face was a little unsightly.
"What's wrong?" Francis snapped.
"It's trouble again! There are a lot of snakes ahead!" Dise's expression was a little helpless, "It's not a monster, it seems to be just an ordinary snake, this cold-blooded animal is really troublesome!" My seven senses deterrent power is estimated to have no effect on them, and now the road nearly a thousand meters ahead is full of snakes, if we can't deal with them, we can only force our way over!"
"Snakes?" asked Francis curiously, "Ah, although the humid environment here is very suitable for snakes, but the methane here is very harmful to living creatures, how can there be so many snakes?"
"If you go further, you can see it!" "Diess thought for a moment and stopped his burning little universe, "It's really troublesome, snakes don't have good brains, and things that threaten them are all directly pounced on and bitten first." How long can this Wind King enchantment be released?"
"It can last a long time!" Saber exhaled, and the long continuous output made her a little tired.
"If the wind is controlled to the point where it will blow those snakes away, then it will do!" Dees gestured with his hand, "Those snakes are about a meter long!"
"How long will it take to get out of the snakes?" Saber asked, after a moment of thought!
"The methane in front of you is almost gone, you can walk a little further to get out of the swamp, and those snakes are blocked in front of the exit!" Dess looked at Saber with a solemn face, his trick was good for one-on-one, but if you attack in a group, you will be a little weak. "There wasn't much water ahead of us, and with our speed, it wouldn't take much time to run. ”
"Yes, I don't have a problem!" Saber said, nodding. Dis also nodded when he heard Saber's affirmation, and after half a month of contact, he also knew a little bit about the girl in front of him. Strong, upright, loyal to Francis, and a chivalrous man, she says she should be fine.
"Now, young master?" asked Dis.
"Go ahead!"
The three of them walked forward for a while, and the sound of rustling came from their ears, and they were already approaching the snakes.
Walking further, the surrounding methane gradually decreased, and the vision slowly began to become clear, only to see countless snakes surging on the ground in front of me, overlapping each other, densely packed, with no end in sight, and the whole ground was full of flowers. The air is full of snakes spitting out letters, and because there are so many of them, the sound is so loud that it makes people get goosebumps when they hear it.
"Looks like it's snake mating season! Luckily, we're just in time!" Francis saw the scene in front of him and immediately understood what was going on. "Saber, I'm going to trouble you again!" the three of them glanced at each other, and according to the arrangement just now, they stood in a triangle.
The snakes on the opposite side felt the movement here, raised their heads one by one, and spat out letters at the three Francis, "Hiss!" A snake suddenly rushed towards the three of them, and followed, one, two...... In the end, the whole group of snakes all held their heads high and rushed towards the three of them. Although there are a lot of them, they are not crowded at all and are orderly. Francis only felt as if the snakes in front of him were like ocean waves, with a fishy smell coming to his face.
