"Hmph, I'm not as happy to see you as you are. The man in the red-patterned cloak on a white background strode forward and lifted the hood of the cloak to reveal the serious face of Wood, the president of the Guild of the Criminals.

"But you're still here, aren't you?" Rogge smiled and put his hand on his shoulder, regardless of whether Wood wanted it or not, and walked over to Murphy and Lisa, asking as he went, "The little bad bird must have brought you back with something important, right?"

"Are you looking for a girl in white, a priest in a silver robe, and a man in a black cloak?" Wood nodded to Murphy, his gaze brushing over the face of the Amazonian guide, and asked Rog back.

"Ah, I knew you must be here for this! Thank you so much for your help, I think you should be able to give us some useful information!" said Rogge, patting Wood on the shoulder with delight.

"I don't want to help you that much," Wood said with a blank look, shrugged his shoulders and pulled away from his arm, glancing at the little furball on his shoulder, "I wouldn't have come with her if the bird hadn't given me a gold coin to compensate me for the suit you stained with blood last time!"

"Oh?" Rogge looked at him in surprise, and looked back at the little owl on his shoulder, the little furball was combing its feathers with its talons, and when he felt his gaze, he jerked his head up and looked at him curiously.

"It's rare for you to be so generous!" Rogge whispered to her in surprise.

"For the sake of a stupid girl, I can give up anything!" said the little furball with a stern head.

"It's so impressive, Catherine would have cried if she knew!" Rogge raised his eyebrows at her appreciatively, and looked up at Wood, "Okay man, tell me, where are they?"

"I did see them, and they asked me for directions, saying that they were looking for a way to the border stronghold of the Duchy of Itali, and I told them that there was no other way but the big road to the west, but they said they couldn't go that way, because there were vampires chasing them. Wood said as he looked at Rogge impatiently.

"And then, where are they going?" asked Rogge, impatiently.

"They went north, and the silver-robed priest seemed to want to make a detour back into the empire from the north, but that obviously didn't work, and I tried to stop them, but they didn't trust me. Wood shrugged helplessly.

"North, it seems to be the territory of the Zerg from here, right?" Rogge asked Murphy and Lisa back.

"I don't know much about the northern part of the swamp, and I haven't been to the area after crossing the gnome territory. Lisa shook her head helplessly, looked back at Murphy and said.

"Either way, we'd better get over and find them as soon as possible, whether it's the bugmen or the Black Knights or vampires, it's extremely dangerous for them!" Murphy said impatiently.

"You're right, brother, we need to catch up with them, hopefully before William and Elizabeth get to them!" Rogge beckoned to Murphy and Lisa, and said to Wood, "Come on, old man, come with us, you don't want to be left alone in this wilderness." ”

"On the contrary, I would love to stay away from you, because it's no good to follow you!" Wood stood unmoved, he pointed to the main road to the west and said, "The girl in white said before that vampire is around here, I was looking for them, how can I go around with you?"

"If you want to find a vampire, follow me is the best way!" Rogge put his face close to him and said meaningfully: "Especially the vampire princess Elizabeth, I have been friends with her for a long time, as a reward for my invasion of her bedroom, Her Royal Highness has always been fond of me, if you want to see her, follow me is the best policy!"

Wood stared at Rogge suspiciously for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you, I hope you're not bragging, but we have to make an appointment beforehand, unless it's related to vampires, then I don't want to meddle in your!"

"That's it, just take us to the place where you met Catherine and the others!" Rogge waved his hand nonchalantly, strode past him, and suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, you have to put away the gold coin that the little bad bird gave you, it's not safe in this swamp!"

"Hmph, there are no thieves in the swamp!" Wood sneered disdainfully, and Rogge, who was walking in front, listened unhurriedly to the footsteps following behind him, and suddenly heard Wood exclaim: "Ah, where is my gold coin?

"Who said there are no thieves in the swamp? isn't the one who gave you the gold coin?" Rogge tacitly glanced at the little owl on his shoulder as if nothing had happened, and muttered softly, and the little furball looked back at him innocently, lowered his head and continued to comb his feathers calmly.

The four of them walked in the direction where he met Catherine and others under the leadership of Wood, and on the way, Wood turned over all the places on Rogge's body that could be turned over, and he didn't find the gold coin he had lost, so he had to take Rogge forward with a depressed face, and Rogge and Murphy, who were walking behind him, exchanged glances and laughed in their hearts.

The group marched through the swamp in the middle of the night, and when they came to the place where Wood met Catherine and the others, it was past midnight, and the four of them determined their direction and continued their journey north.

As they walked, the swamp fog shrouded around suddenly dissipated, and a beam of cold moonlight fell on the swamp ground, and the four of them stopped in unison, only to see a huge arch appear in front of them, and towering plant walls extended on both sides of the gate, and intertwined vines were entangled on the wall, like a plant castle.

"It reminds me of the Goddess Lake, the sacred land of the Elves," Rog said to the three beside him, looking up at the gate tangled in vines, "but compared to the tree walls and arches of the Goddess Lake, this place is obviously much larger. ”

"I don't know if there are any unicorns here!" the little furball looked at the door curiously and said, "The horn of the unicorn last time made me pay good luck and earn a lot of gold coins!"

"What do those gold coins have to do with unicorns? Didn't I earn them for you?" Rog said, glancing at her with a slanted eyebrow.

"No, it's the unicorn's good luck for me!" said the little furball triumphantly.

"What an ungrateful little villain!" Rogge said, pouting.

At this moment, the gate in front of them suddenly opened slowly in a sound of sneering, and the entangled vines separated from each other, revealing a tall and wide arch opening, and inside was a path paved with flower petals, and on either side of the road were two towering green tree walls, and the multicolored petals and tree walls reflected each other, like a dream in the moonlight.

"The owner of the place seemed to be inviting us in. Rogge turned back to the three beside him.

"I have a bad feeling that this kind of unsolicited invitation is probably not a good intention. Murphy said warily as he gazed warily at the arch and the path inside the door.

"But we don't seem to have any other choice. Rogge looked back at the swamp on the left and right, and saw that the road was blocked by a high wall of plants, stretching towards the horizon, with no end in sight.

"Come on, we've got to go in and see, whatever is inside, at least we've got to make sure Catherine and Bach are inside. Rog beckoned to the three and strode towards the arch.

"Hey, I'm not going to go in with you, we'd better say goodbye here!" said Wood, standing still looking at Rogge's back.

"If you've decided you're going to do that, I'm not going to object, but you're probably going to miss out on Princess Elizabeth!" Rogge glanced back at him meaningfully, and walked into the arch without looking back, Murphy and Lisa followed closely behind, and Wood, who was standing outside the door, hesitated for a moment, but followed.

The group walked straight along the path covered with petals, and after walking along the path formed by the plant wall for a while, a beautiful sea of flowers appeared in front of them, and the colorful flowers became quiet and charming in the clear moonlight.

"There are so many flowers here, I have never seen so many beautiful flowers in the swamp!" Lisa said in surprise, looking at the sea of flowers in front of her.

"Indeed, it is difficult to see such a dense sea of flowers even in the Sun and Moon Forest. Rogge led the group through the path among the flowers, smelling the rich aroma of his nose, and a small butterfly fluttered in front of him and landed on the stamen of a flower.

"It's so beautiful, I like it here!" The little furball happily jumped up from Rog's shoulder, and fell on the flowers with a flick, and fell into the depths of the flowers with a "poof", and was suddenly stuck by the tangled flower branches and couldn't move.

"That's proof it's time to lose weight!" said Rogge, reaching out and grabbing the little furball out of the flowers.

"No, I just forgot that I'm not a little butterfly!" said the little furball pouting and jumping onto his shoulder, combing his feathers that had been messed up by the branches.

Rogge glanced at her little head covered with flower petals, smiled, and continued along the road with the other three, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, a circular flower bed suddenly appeared in front of her, and the path went around from both sides of the flower bed.

A large red flower bloomed in the middle of the parterre, five huge petals spread out and covered with white spots, and the leaves hung down from the perimeter of the circular parterre, blocking half of the path.

"Oh shit, that's the last thing I want to see. Rogge, who was walking in front, saw a white cloak fall under a large petal, he quickly stepped forward to pick up the cloak, turned back to Murphy and the others, and said, "This is Catherine's cloak, they are really here!"

Before he finished speaking, a head suddenly appeared from the stamens of the huge flower in front of him, and a young woman with her lower body hidden in the stamens and her upper body wrapped in petals and blades of grass appeared in the stamens, with long green hair, and said to the four people with a charming smile: "Welcome to my garden, I believe you will like it here!"

Before the words fell, a large number of green vines suddenly drilled out of the ground under the feet of the four people, entangled their legs and feet, and four huge flowers drilled out of the stamens behind her, opening four large mouths and swallowing the four people.
