In fact, most of the so-called swamps are not the black sludge covered with dead branches and leaves, and occasionally some dead animals are floating on them, and the swamp is floating with poisonous miasma. In fact, most of the swamp is a group of interconnected ponds and a mass of herbaceous plants that unite into a land-like land, some muddy land, some hard land, and there are many living plants and a large number of animals and insects, which are still very beautiful natural scenery in a sense - but in fact, these ponds and meadows are also very dangerous, and you don't know if there is flowing muddy water under the tunnel, and how deep it is......

The worst thing for Nathan and them was that the part of the swamp that they had entered from Highland was exactly what people imagined the swamp to look like - black silt, dead branches and leaves....... so the three guys had just walked into the swamp before they got lost.

Kandal, a halfling who claims to never get lost, and whose lockpicking skills are unequaled, vows: "We are on the right path, and in an hour at most we will be able to see the first dry plateau in this quagmire! and not far from the first ruins we are going to!"

Then, three hours later, Bart and Nathan successfully transformed the halfling gnome into a fleshy dwarf, and Kandal, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, finally admitted that they were lost. What's worse is that as a half-hung thief halfling, this thing didn't remember the journey back, and the other two rookies didn't remember either, so it was very unfortunate that they were about to die.

If it was a group of veterans, they would either have already tried to find the right direction and struggle to get back, or they were hysterical, but the three rookies didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at all, and the archers and warriors felt that it was no big deal after venting their frustration of getting lost on the thieves, just move on, "Anyway, we brought a lot of food, and there are animals and water everywhere in the swamp, no problem." ”

The three of them found a plausible direction and began to head deeper into the swamp. To say that God really loves fools, the three guys have been walking for two days without encountering any danger, and the sky is to meet a slime, and Nathan, as a typical sword and shield warrior, really won't be planted in the hands of a slime.

But on this day they finally met a slightly harder opponent - they left the black sludge area on this day, and reached the world of meadows and ponds, and even some trees on the high ground, and the air became so fresh that the three of them suddenly felt as if they had come for a vacation. At this time, a water arrow was shot, but Nathan blocked the water arrow with a small round shield in his left hand in time, but the metal plate embedded in the center of the small round shield emitted acid gas and quickly began to melt, and on the other side, the initiator of this water arrow jumped out of the pond - a frog more than half a person in size.

"What is this? Big frog that spits strong acid!Bart!, use a bow and arrow!" shouted Nathan, who had already dropped the round shield in his left hand, the surface of which had been corroded and penetrated, and if he didn't do so, it would probably corrode the leather armor on Nathan's arm.

Barth, as a self-proclaimed third-level archer, still had a few brushes, and a sharp arrow was immediately nailed between the eyes of the big frog, and the strong force made half of the sharp arrow sink into the frog's body, and the big frog died almost immediately. But before the three of them could breathe a sigh of relief, three or four of these big frogs jumped out of the pond one after another.

"Hell, is this a frog cave, Bart, do you have any skills, hurry up, or we'll be in trouble!" Nathan shouted, brandishing his one-handed sword and jumping straight into the frog group, chopping them up before the big frogs could spit out their water arrows.

The halfling thief Kandal also went into stealth, preparing to backstab a frog behind it - an inefficient way to contain the frogs as well as Nathan, who was now swinging his sword in the frog swarm.

After a period of scramble, Bart released his strongest attack in time, "Multiple Arrows!" I saw that Bart opened his bow in his right hand continuously, and shot four sharp arrows within one breath, hitting four big frogs, but the parts of the hit were not very good - some shot the eye, some shot the tongue, and some shot the stomach and forelimbs, anyway, he didn't shoot a big frog. However, Nathan made up a few swords in time, and Kandal also sent a backstab, finally killing the two frogs in time, but the other two frogs had already spat out corrosive water arrows, and Nathan fled quickly, trying to take off the smoking leather armor on his body as he escaped, and Kandal fled with him, and Bart shot another arrow to kill a frog and immediately turned around and ran with Nathan - frogs were still jumping out of the pond.

As they ran, the three of them quickly threw down their belongings except their weapons, and after half an hour, they finally managed to get rid of the frog group behind them.

"It's a bit of a problem, we've lost all our dry food. Bart spoke weakly.

"It's all right! I still have a cup and a flint and steel. We can roast frogs and eat them, and water is everywhere here. Kandal, the halfling, was optimistic, "After all, we didn't let the frogs eat us, which is good, isn't it?" ”

Nathan didn't say anything, but he took out a small bag on his body, which contained a piece of salt and a few fish hooks, "Anyway, let's get something to eat first!"

Although they managed to escape the frogs and get a few more fish to eat, the three guys were still a little unmotivated, "We haven't .........caught anything yet," the three men muttered and finished eating the fish, and then continued to find a dry high ground, put the grass on the mat and prepared for bed—it was getting late.

At night, under the moonlight, a mist spread between the ponds, meadows, highlands, and trees, and the three fellows formed a circle with the only remaining insect repellent powder, and fell asleep in the circle.........

Now, Temorrah continued to love the three guys, and with an invisible fluctuation, the three of them disappeared without a trace in the mist, leaving only a circular halo looming on the ground where the three of them had slept, and there seemed to be countless strange words in the aura.

"Strange ceiling ........." Nathan opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

"Strange ceiling.......... damn it! Where are we! Hurry up, you two fools!" Nathan said second.......

The three of them looked around in disbelief, they were now in a large stone house, which seemed to have no doors or windows, but there was a huge hole in the ceiling, and the sunlight was pouring down from the hole. On the other side there was a stone staircase that looked like it led to the second floor, but from the hole in the ceiling, it seemed that something was missing from the second floor.

The three of them jumped to their feet and climbed up to the second floor, only to find that half of the walls on the second floor had disappeared without a trace, and the ground was littered with stones suspected to be walls, as if a powerful force had broken the walls.

"It's a mage tower, right?" Bart asked first.

"Hurry up and find out what's good!" Kandal exclaimed merrily.

"It doesn't seem to be on the map...... We're developed!" Nathan was even happier.

"You don't seem to be able to read the map, do you?" Immediately, it was Bart who poured a bucket of cold water on Nathan.

"Whatever! search for it first!" shouted Nathan - as for if there would be other "things" in this tower? none of the three guys thought of it......... It's no wonder that the rocks on the ground are covered with moss, and it looks like no one has cleaned them for hundreds of years.
