Chapter Thirty-Five: The Swamp of Hidden Murder
"Gu Ci, I don't seem to be afraid of these miasma, I don't know if it's because of the poisoning before. You keep this herb for now, and if I don't feel right, I'll take it from you. Realizing that he might have developed immunity to toxins, Shi Di returned the herbs to Gu Ci, and the limited reserves of medicines they had brought with them could save money.
"Because of poisoning, you are no longer afraid of other toxins? I really have never heard of such an example, usually your body will only produce antibodies to the toxins you have been exposed to, how can you also be immune to other poisons? Could it be that the combination of the three poisons has really achieved some unknown response in your body?
Gu Ci took the herbs, and when he saw that Shi Di was really not affected by the surrounding miasma at all, he couldn't help but be surprised, and then reminded, "Whether you are really immune to other toxins still needs to be observed for a while, you must pay more attention to the changes in your physical condition, and don't be careless." ”
Just as Shi Di was about to respond to Gu Ci, he keenly felt that the surrounding environment seemed to have changed. They were in the middle of a swamp, and there was a wet mud path slightly above the swamp at their feet, and the path winded in front of them, forming a bridge that could carry the weight of the people. Around the trail is a mud bog with no end in sight, a dark blue-green color with bubbles on it that emit the uncomfortable miasma.
But now, besides those bubbles, it looks like something else is popping up from the mire!
Shi Di's observation was correct, only to see that one after another skeleton soldiers slowly rose from the swamp, some of them were dressed as warriors, dressed in full body armor, and holding knives in both hands, and some were dressed like thieves, wearing wallet hoods and daggers in both hands. Unlike Catherine's skeleton corps they had encountered before, these skeleton soldiers had a look in their eyes, and they were clearly not manipulated creatures, but had autonomous consciousness.
At this moment, the skeleton soldiers that appeared in the swamp were increasing at an alarming rate, and their number was increasing. Looking from afar, I saw that in the boundless swamp around the wet mud path, there were countless skeleton soldiers standing densely, and in such a battle, I am afraid that there are not ten thousand, but eight thousand. Moreover, the skeleton soldiers were looking at Shi Di with fierce eyes, as if they had already regarded them as intruders.
The situation is really too unfavorable, the quagmire is obviously not within the scope of ordinary people, and the result of stepping into it is undoubtedly to be swallowed by it. The only wet mud path they could stand on was no more than wide enough to pass two people at once, and they wouldn't even have room to dodge if they were attacked by these skeletons.
The top priority is to stabilize the emotions of these skeleton soldiers, and not to have a head-on conflict with them, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, Shi Di thought to himself.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have passed through the treasure land only to take advantage of the road, and we do not mean to offend you in any way, and I ask you to be accommodating, and let us pass through here, and I can assure you that we will not destroy a single brick or tile. Shi Di said loudly, trying to communicate with these skeleton soldiers.
"Knight Andrei has commanded, whoever trespasses here, die!"
A voice rang out from the group of skeleton soldiers, and immediately all the skeleton soldiers repeated the words they had just said.
"Anyone who trespasses here, die!" the roar of thousands of skeleton soldiers rang out, a loud sound deafening.
It seems that the negotiations failed, and their duty is to intercept those who want to pass through here, and it is not known what kind of character they mentioned is Knight Andrei, it seems that he is their boss. I'm afraid that I can't avoid clashes with these skeletons now, but given the environment I am in and the disparity in the number of enemies and enemies, it will be very difficult to destroy these skeletons.
If you can't beat it, what else can you do, thirty-six plans are the best plan, you can only run, Shi Di's heart moved, and he explained to his partners around him in a low voice.
"In this case, we'd better not fight them, wait and see what I do, let's rush through this swamp together, if they come to attack us, just take care of yourself, don't be entangled by them in the fight, everyone must follow, if you are alone, I am afraid that others will not be able to save your life." ”
"In addition, you immediately adjust your position, Anna is responsible for breaking the rear, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, you are responsible for assisting Anna, don't let her fall into the siege of skeletons, I will open the way for you at the front, Kemeng is responsible for assisting me in kicking away those skeletons who are in the way, and Tammer is responsible for solving the skeletons that are surrounded in the distance in front. ”
"Yi Miao, here is the only one who can use a broom to move forward quickly without being attacked, you support us in the sky, try to destroy those skeleton soldiers who are closer to us, but don't consume too much spiritual power, we don't know what the situation is ahead, we have to preserve our strength. ”
"Everyone else is standing in the middle of the line, and they have to move fast for a while, is there a problem?"
"No problem!" the crowd replied, adjusting their positions as they were told.
"Let's go!" Shi Di knew that he couldn't delay any longer, he had to start moving before they were surrounded by skeleton soldiers, and seeing that everyone had already adjusted their positions, he no longer hesitated, and took the lead to sweep forward, and everyone also moved quickly.
"Those who trespass here, die!" The skeleton soldiers saw Shi Di and his party start to rush forward, and let out a deafening roar again, and attacked Shi Di and them one after another.
Soon, there were already three skeleton thieves appeared in front of Shi Di, trying to stop his progress, how could Shi Di fulfill their wish, with a raise of his hand, three shuriken shot three enemies respectively, shaking those skeleton thieves to scatter around, and successfully made way for Shi Di and them, but Meng screamed and rushed forward, and the little short leg kicked back, and the skeleton thief who was in the middle of the road was kicked into the mire.
At the same time, several skeleton warriors in the distance were about to appear on the road ahead, and Tammer had no arrows, and a few arrows whizzed to finish them off one by one. Above them, Yi Miao, who was flying forward on his broomstick, continued to shoot fireballs with his staff, destroying the skeletons farther away so that they would not be surrounded by a heavy siege.
In this way, the group ran and killed, and moved quickly on the wet mud path, and after about twenty minutes of walking like this, everyone felt a little tired, and finally, the end of the wet mud path arrived.
I saw a huge floating island appear in front of me, and the wet mud path sloped all the way up, connecting to the floating island. As long as they can successfully land on this floating island, these skeletons can no longer form a situation of encirclement against them, Shi Di was happy in his heart, and understood that the crisis in front of him had finally been temporarily alleviated.
But at this time, Anna, who was in charge of the break, finally ran out of strength and was entangled by two skeleton thieves who chased behind her, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma hurried to support Anna, but they were all trapped by several skeleton warriors who had just caught up behind, and the four of them were about to be overwhelmed by the group of skeleton soldiers behind.
"Get on the back of the turtle!" Gu Ci shouted at the four of them, and when the four of them heard this, they tried their best to deal with the skeleton soldiers who were fighting them, and jumped on the back of the turtle where Gu Ci was.
The turtle was huge, and it didn't fit four people at once, so only Anna landed firmly on the turtle's back, and the other three hugged the left carapace, climbed the right carapace, and dragged the back carapace, and were dragged around the tortoise, becoming a veritable oil bottle trio.
"Hold on! The people in front of you dodge!" Gu Ci didn't care so much, reminded a few people, stretched out his hand and pinched the turtle's tail fiercely, only to see the turtle rushing forward like an arrow, with a gust of wind, turning left and right from the middle of the first few people, bypassing them and running up to the floating island, but in a few seconds, the five of them had already been brought up.
What an all-powerful turtle...... Although the current situation is very tense, such a sentence still has to come to everyone's hearts.
At this time, the rest of Shi Di and the others had also run to the part of the wet mud path that connected to the floating island, and the skeleton soldiers below could no longer surround them from the front, they only needed to deal with the skeleton soldiers who caught up from behind, and the situation was much easier all of a sudden.
In this way, Shi Di and the others also ran all the way to the floating island and joined up with Gu Ci and the others, but those skeleton soldiers did not give up chasing them, but continued to climb up.
"Block the entrance, don't let them get on this floating island!" said when he saw this, and took the lead in blocking the junction between the muddy path and the floating island, cutting down a skeleton thief who was about to climb the floating island.
When the rest of the people heard this, they didn't care about resting for a while, and immediately began to fend off those skeleton soldiers at the entrance.
Although the skeleton soldiers are no longer a threat to them, and they also occupy a very favorable terrain, the number of skeleton soldiers below is too large, and I really don't know how long and when they will be eliminated one by one like this. Shi Di thought to himself as he swung his dagger to shoot down the skeleton soldiers who climbed up.
This is definitely not going to work, they are dragged here, firstly, they cannot properly probe the surrounding situation, and they do not know if there is a hidden threat on this floating island, and secondly, in the long run, it will consume a lot of physical strength, and if they run out of physical strength and still can't completely destroy these skeletons, it will be troublesome.
But if you don't hold this place, when these skeletons land on the floating island and surround them, the situation will be even more dangerous.
Looking at the skeleton soldiers who were still rushing up, Shi Di couldn't help frowning, and couldn't think of too good a countermeasure for a while.
"Leave these men to me, and you can step down. ”
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, he heard a thick and majestic male voice, and as soon as this male voice sounded, the skeleton soldiers immediately stopped attacking them, and quickly left the vicinity of the floating island like the tide receding.
"Yes, Knight Andrea!" replied the skeletons who had retreated into the mire in unison, sinking slowly into the mire as they had appeared.
Andre Knight?Shi Di turned around to see what kind of person this knight could make so many high-level skeleton soldiers obey.
Easter Egg Theatre:
Gu Ci: (pinching the turtle's tail heavily) Hold on, Yi Ge yesterday!
The turtle slammed into the four people in front of him and roared away, and the four fell into the mire one after another.
Shi Di, Tamo, Smoke Sing, Ke Meng, Paw.
