Chapter 965: A Pale Swamp of Déjà vu
"What does this mean, a semi-anonymous letter......" Li Shuyi pondered for a moment, "it doesn't seem to have any ill will towards us." ”
Bai Xiaowen hummed and waved his hand to let the emaciated gnoll leave.
This gnoll is not only weak, but also has low intelligence, and is basically unable to communicate. Out of respect for the messenger, Bai Xiaowen didn't want to use the Confusion Charm on this Gnoll messenger to look through his memory.
"Xiaowen, who do you think it will be?" asked Li Shuyi.
"I don't know, but this person must not be simple," Bai Xiaowen said, "The other party seems to already know my target location...... The only people who can know this are Camelot and the orc higher-ups. But if it's a high-level person in these two countries, there is no need to communicate with me in such a way of hiding his head and tail. ”
"Could it be a mysterious organization we don't know?" asked Li Shuyi.
"The possibilities are high. ”
Putting away the scales, Bai Xiaowen sighed: "Don't care about it so much...... The difficulty of this mission is only B+, judging from the difficulty, this mysterious organization should not have much malice towards us, otherwise the difficulty must be at least A+ or above. Of course, I don't just think about the difficulty, but when I get to the place, I should be careful. ”
There were no accidents on the next journey, and the two took the teleportation array to the Kingdom of Camelot, declined Camelot's invitation, and set off directly to the north, rushing to the Pale Swamp.
......
Pale swamp, filled with a miserable white mist.
The mist is cold and biting, and it seems to be constantly absorbing the heat of the human body. Walking in the swamp, the depleted physical energy has not been replenished.
"Pale Swamp, the name seems a little familiar. Li Shuyi said.
"Well, the Necromantic Lake Treasure Land space, the core area is called the Pale Mire, which actually means the same thing. Bai Xiaowen said.
"Could there be any connection between these two places? I remember both having this weird mist, which seems to be called yin. ”
"Hmm...... It should be the same place," Bai Xiaowen said, "It's just that the Necronomicon Treasure Land Space should be the fragmented space that collapsed during the last time or even earlier when the Black Tide Plane was unified, which happened to include the Pale Swamp. The pale swamp we see now is actually the place after the re-evolution. ”
After Li Shuyi and Bai Xiaowen stepped into the pale swamp, they had an additional negative state of "yin qi" on their bodies at the same time. In this state, the two are actually very familiar.
"I remember, in the pale quagmire of the treasure space, there is a hidden snake tribe, I don't know if there is any now. Li Shuyi said.
"I don't know about this......" Bai Xiaowen actually had some doubts in his heart. He recalled that when he first met the female leader of the snake tribe in the pale mire, Aliqi, seemed to be the priest of Amotava, but her appearance was very different from ordinary snake people, and the most special thing was that she had many arms, which was very similar to the multi-armed snake people of the snake mother's branch.
According to Bai Xiaowen's judgment, the Necromantic Lake Treasure Land Space should be the plane fragments that collapsed after the Abyss Snake Man camp of the Black Tide Plane completed the great unification—it was precisely because the Snake Man won that it appeared in the center of the continent.
However, how to explain the Eye of Amotava, which is enshrined at the altar of the Serpent Man?
If the snake people are unified, Amotawa should be in good health and will not cut out his eyeballs for worshippers, right?
Bai Xiaowen shook his head, put away these thoughts, and refocused his attention on his surroundings.
Although the thin mist could obscure his vision, Bai Xiaowen's spiritual scan was unhindered. Soon, he noticed something unusual.
Crash!
A strong black shadow pounced out of the swamp, bringing up a large cloud of mud and rushing towards Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen was already prepared, raised his hand and summoned the skeleton warrior, the latter hit headlong, but knocked the black shadow in front of him back several steps, of course, the skeleton warrior was also knocked out of a distance of several meters, and the difference in strength between the two was not large.
The black shadow was knocked out and revealed as a giant crocodile wrapped in mud.
Bai Xiaowen threw out the insight. This crocodile is named "Dead Ze Giant Crocodile", and it is a level 10 elite creature with camouflage, bite, and tail sweeping skills, and its strength is not very strong.
"You don't do it. ”
Bai Xiaowen summoned Kitz again, along with the shadow assassin and other undead summoned creatures. In this kind of yin environment, sending undead creatures out is the best choice, and the physical recovery of normal lifeforms is too slow.
Under Bai Xiaowen's control, the summoned creature cooperated and tacitly killed the giant crocodile, but not even a single hair was lost.
"This abominable ghost mist, if only it could collect necromantic disguises here. Li Shuyi said.
"There's no rush. The ghost fog itself is part of the B+ level mission's difficulty...... With such a heavy fog here, it means that the difficulty of the battle we will encounter will be very low. ”
Bai Xiaowen's spiritual power was released, and he suddenly frowned and said, "Something is coming over again...... There seems to be a lot of it. ”
While speaking, Bai Xiaowen glanced at the doom bracelet, and there was actually a smiling face on it.
“?”
Before the question mark in Bai Xiaowen's mind became "!", he encountered the creatures who followed the sound.
A group of lobster people......
The big pincers, the heavy carapace, and the bulging eyes...... Familiar recipes, familiar tastes.
"Who are you?!, did you break into this dead realm and don't want to live?"
The lobster man at the front, with a claw in his right hand that is larger than his left hand, is a leader-level creature. It waved the big ao and shouted at Bai Xiaowen: "Hurry up and get out of here, otherwise there is only a dead end!"
"Hmm......"
Bai Xiaowen glanced at the smiling face pattern of the Doom Bracelet again, and finally slowly took out a scale.
That's right, it was the mysterious organization signed "G", the scales that were given to Bai Xiaowen and asked him to keep them safe.
The moment he saw the scales, the leader of the lobster people was stunned.
"You...... Where did you get this scale?"
"I don't know. The scales have text written on them, and you can see them for yourself. Bai Xiaowen handed over the scales.
Unexpectedly, the leader of the lobster people dodged as if he was dodging a soldering iron, and he felt like he was in a hurry: "No, you don't need to look at it...... Humans, come with me!"
Li Shuyi glanced at Bai Xiaowen curiously.
"Keep up...... These lobster people should be innocent of malice. Bai Xiaowen exhaled lightly and followed quickly.
Soon, the two of them were led by the lobster people to a lobster people village in the middle of the mire. A group of lobster people curiously watched along the road until they reached the end of the village, in front of a hut made of shells.
