,
Not far from the hotel is a swamp, and further away there is a mangrove forest with lush branches and mist. Fang Plover got up from the ground and followed the others into the water without thinking about it.
The night was dark, with only the faint starlight shining from the forest. The backs of the people in front could hardly be seen, and only the sound of rushing water could be heard from the distance. And Hongye was not far away from his left hand direction, moving forward one foot deep and one foot shallow. In order to keep up with the others, she had put away the Annihilators - and anyway, they were unlikely to pose any threat to the dragon.
In front of him on the right is Atila. The elf girl is carrying a bow and holding a spear. She looks back at Fang Plover from time to time, concerned about whether he is in trouble.
This made Fang Yu slightly flattered.
The faint figures further away should be Luo Yu and Papalar, the latter struggling in chest-deep water - of course only relative to him. The tall trainee walked up to him, squatted down, and motioned for the latter to get on his back.
Parker complained once or twice that Papalar people have dignity, but he climbed up honestly.
As for Tianlan, Jita, and Hu Di, who were the first to enter the water, they had probably entered the redwood forest. Their shadows could no longer be seen in that direction, only a diffuse mist.
Sylvide and her maid Siesta had already disappeared somewhere, which made Fang Plover curse a few times. The master and the servant really ran faster than a rabbit.
Walking at the back were Wu Di and Liu Liyue, the latter still complaining loudly, of course mainly complaining about the dragon that 'should go to hell'. He kept chattering until Hongye couldn't bear it anymore and said: "That's enough, are you done yet -"
Liu Liyue moved her mouth to refute, but Wu Di added: "Stop talking." He stopped talking unwillingly and just stared at Hongye angrily.
Fang Plover looked in the direction of the mound again. It seemed that the people of the Red Fire Guild were not dead yet. Suddenly there was a light in the darkness. The dragon in the distance spit out golden flames. The fire swept over the entire mound and was reflected on the water. It was bright, like a blazing tower. Island.
The dragon was pacing in the flames, as if looking for a fish that had slipped through the net. Then it suddenly raised its head and looked in this direction. Even from a distance of hundreds of meters, Fang Plover could see the flashing golden-red eye looking at him.
Then it spread its wings and flew into the sky.
Fang Plover knew it was coming.
He immediately turned around and involuntarily quickened his pace, but it was not that easy to move forward in the deep water. The mud entangled his feet, and the water soaked the alchemist's robe, as if there were several hands dragging him down. .
Fang Plover pushed the water splash forward with difficulty, separating the roots of the water plants and mangroves. Countless insects on the water were scattered in all directions, most of them fluorescent. It was really beautiful to see them dotted in the dark, but he had no intention of admiring them.
Because he knows that there may be mire pits hidden under the water, some are naturally formed, but others have other 'owners'. Fang Plover couldn't help but think of some horrific scenes, as if he would fall into quicksand the next moment, with rotten aquatic plants in the water dragging his ankles down.
Under the sinking water were white bones and pale and swollen faces, like corpses soaked in formalin. One of the faces still had its eyes open. The pale eyeballs were like translucent insect eggs, and something was breaking out of the shell.
A few swimming fish slipped past his feet, frightening Fang Plover into a cold sweat before he woke up. I understand that I have fallen into the dragon's trick again. The dark dragon has its own aura of fear, which can infinitely amplify the dark side of people's hearts. As long as there is a slight flaw in the heart, it will take advantage of it, which has a miraculous effect on low-level characters like them.
There was already a whistling sound from behind, and a layer of ripples gradually appeared on the water surface.
"Run separately." Wu Di suddenly whispered.
This is undoubtedly the best way.
At this moment, several trainees are already at the front and are basically out of danger. It is obviously impossible for them all to survive. It is the best choice to leave them alone and let fate, at least to ensure that they will not be caught in one fell swoop.
Everyone nodded, raised their heads and looked at each other. Although they had not known each other for a long time, they had fought side by side.
"Take care, little brother, remember to come to our guild," Hongye glanced at Fang Pliance, and before he could say anything more, he sent a communication code. "This is my communication ID, wish you good luck-"
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind a sound of water.
"Remember we haven't finished the fight yet," Liu Liyue said to him: "Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you can control goblins. I'll be waiting for you at the Spear of the Silver Forest."
Fang Yu chewed this sentence carefully and realized that this guy was also a ghost. But as Tian Lan said, he would not go to the Silver Forest Spear, and he would not go even if he was killed. He refused. .
Wu Di still remained silent and looked at him with dead fish eyes. It's just that Fang Yu always feels that the other person's eyes are full of meaning when he looks at him.
It's like looking at a fish waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board -
The figures of the two people also gradually moved away.
Fang Plover turned around and said to Aitila beside him: "Miss Aitila, let's separate first."
Aitila looked at him, did not refuse, and nodded. Seeing those gentle and considerate eyes in the darkness, Fang Yu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. If it had been Miss Scarpet, there was a high chance that he would have been stabbed in the hand just now.
But the elf girl just put away her spear and walked in another direction. Before leaving, she turned back to him and said, "Be careful, Ed."
Fang Yu always felt that the look Aitila looked at him was very familiar, reminding him of his days on earth, his aunt and uncle, and that annoying cousin.
The surroundings fell silent again, leaving only the sound of insects.
A horizontal wave rose up from the water and surged forward. Fang Plover quickly grabbed the root branch on the side and barely managed to stand still. A black shadow passed over the head, causing the redwood forest to sway.
The dragon was circling, and Fang Plover knew it was determining its target. He knew in his heart that it must be him, and subconsciously covered the back of his hand with his hand.
On the water not far away, clusters of glowing crystals hung under the cage-like roots of a mangrove tree, illuminating the surrounding area.
At first glance, it looks like the floating crystal Guy that can be seen everywhere in the world of Etalia, but in fact it is the first fin spine and luminous skin flap of a swamp angler. That thing is a rare big thing in the low swamp. .
Level 22, very good at mimicry, with no other weaknesses except slow movement. As long as you get within five to seven meters of it, you will basically die, but fortunately Fang Plover recognized this thing.
He turned to the other side in fear.
Even in the outer reaches of Traveler's Swamp, dangers abound.
He didn't know when the dragon would fly back, but it would definitely come back. From the moment Wu Di proposed to take separate actions, Fang Yu understood the result. For others, this was destined to be a near-miss adventure.
And for him——
That is a narrow escape from death, or even ten deaths without any chance of life.
He was walking cautiously into the depths of the mangrove, hoping to find a glimmer of life in the dense forest. The dragon appeared in this area. He thought that although he was the leader, his rank was not too high.
No matter how you say it, it is just a part of the dragon, or even just the power of a broken horn.
While Fang Plover was thinking wildly, a line of prompts suddenly appeared faintly on the system window before his eyes:
"ID——064212215h applies to be your contact person."
Fang Yu was slightly startled.
I quickly looked down and saw that there was verification information below: "I know who you are, Ed——"
Look further down, it’s signed Wu Di. Fang Plover almost stumbled into the water. At this moment, he realized how reliable the old saying is - a dog that bites does not bark.
No wonder the other party looked at him with that look before.
He was in a state of confusion when suddenly a gunshot came from far behind him, which was exactly the direction Wu Di and the others left. Fang Plover turned around and suddenly realized what the other party was doing. He was trying to lure the dragon away.
It's a pity that he couldn't laugh or cry.
It's no use.
Wu Di took back the smoking gun in his hand and was a little surprised. He clearly hit the dragon's right wing with one shot, and the lead bullet drew a long spark on it, but the other party didn't even look at him and flew straight to the north.
That's exactly the direction Fang Plover left——
Fang Plover also saw the dragon. After all, the latter's huge body and unique golden-red pupils were hard to miss in the night sky. After it made a gorgeous turn over the redwood forest, it swooped in this direction.
At that moment, Fang Yu only felt that the mark on the back of his hand was hot and red, but he didn't care so much and turned around and ran away.
The giant dragon spread its wings and drew a straight line from the sky above the redwood forest. Wherever it passed, two golden flames were pulled out from behind the wings. Sparks rained down from the sky, falling on the top of the redwood forest and immediately burned into a piece.
The entire swamp became brighter as if it was on fire.
There was another long roar.
It was as if the water surface was boiling and shaking.
The goblin doll controlled by Miss Tata sat on Fang Plover's shoulder, holding his collar tightly with her little hands. Running with Fang Plover, her silver hair swept the latter's face from time to time. It was at this time that Tata suddenly said: "Be careful!"
In fact, Fang Yu also used her perception to see the fleeting magic reaction above - why are there other people in the forest? As soon as this thought came to his mind, a figure jumped down from the tree branch and pounced on him.
Fang Yu only felt a pair of strong hands grabbing his throat, pressing his head with another hand, and suddenly pushing himself under the water. Water with a fishy earthy smell poured in from all directions. Fang Plover choked on the water before he could react.
Someone wants to kill him?
His whole body was tense, and he struggled to raise his head. At this moment, the dragon flew down from the sky. A bright flash of light bloomed from the back of Fang Plover's hand, forming a huge hemispherical shield. Not only did the dragon hit his head against the shield, but the force field also pushed away the person who was suppressing him.
Fang Yu looked back and saw the man's appearance clearly.
An assassin with a mask and a weird top hat with a hood on his head was pushed away by the force field and slammed into a tree.
On the other side, the dragon was seriously injured and was still shaking its huge head. The feeling of swooping down from a height of tens of meters and hitting a wall is quite a feeling. You can understand it if you think about it.
Fang Yu looked at his hand, and the half of the crown mark dimmed again, but now he at least understood that it was not the same as them.
He took another look at the two guys, one big and one small, covered the mark with his hand, turned around and ran in the other direction.
The assassin reacted first, climbed up by the roots of the tree, stepped on the branches of the mangrove forest, and chased in this direction from the crown of the tree. Fang Plover kept looking back to see the distance between the opponent and himself. The magic furnace behind the assassin was obviously in operation. The crystals on his boots and gloves were glowing, making him feel as if he were walking on flat ground among the branches.
From time to time, he would grab the vines and swing forward, like Tarzan.
Climbing gloves and balance boots——
There are not many people who can use these two combat tools well. Even among assassins, there is only one out of ten. But being targeted by such a little master, Fang Plover couldn't be happy at all.
He suddenly remembered what Tianlan had said to him during the day. Among the people at the elder sister's head, there was a very powerful assassin.
That little French girl is really a super crow’s mouth.
As he ran forward desperately, there was a lone mangrove standing in the water in front of him. The surrounding area had already been engulfed in a raging sea of fire. The dragon flames even burned directly on the water for a long time.
The firelight overshadowed everything, dragging the shadow of the cage-shaped tree roots long.
Fang Plover estimated the distance.
The assassin finally arrived above his head and swooped forward, but Fang Plover suddenly stopped, just enough for the assassin to pounce into the pool in front of him.
He watched helplessly as the man fell into the water, with a 'swish' sound and a water column was stirred up.
He could give this person a maximum of three points for his entry into the water, no higher.
The assassin finally stood up again, but he looked at Fang Plover with some confusion - the latter actually didn't run away, and even raised his hand to wave at him.
"Farewell." Fang Plover shouted.
Then he turned around and ran.
The assassin was stunned for a moment, then picked up his top hat, poured out the water inside, poured it clean, and then covered his head again. It was at this time that a huge shadow enveloped him from behind.
He turned around and saw only a huge open mouth - the swamp angler.
And the densely packed sharp teeth are like a whirlpool.
"mmp!"
These were the assassin's last words.
However, Fang Yu was no better than him. He didn't run very far when he discovered another problem - this direction was the way he came, which was closer to the Traveler's Rest hotel. .
And when he turned around, he just saw a huge shadow emerging from the edge of the mangrove forest.
The dragon has already chased him out.
Fang Yu froze on the spot.
The remnant soul of Nicol Bolas raised his neck and looked down at this tiny human, with a sardonic smile on his open mouth.
And the only remaining golden-red eye contained the light of victory. It raised its paws, and a huge shadow enveloped Fang Plover.
"Now I really only have one life left." Fang Pultru couldn't help but close his eyes and thought to himself.
But this is the time.
A bright light suddenly pierced the darkness and hit the dragon's chest.
The latter let out an earth-shattering roar, raised his entire upper body, and fell backwards. It fell into the water with a crash, then rolled and struggled to get up, panting and staring angrily ahead with its golden-red eyes.
A low growl came from his throat, and he spoke for the first time: "It's you again, Shuyode!"
The voice was a neutral and deep female voice, filled with unforgettable hatred.
Fang Plover unexpectedly turned around and saw a tall figure walking out of the mist, holding a slender sword in his hand.
That's the owner of the hotel - Mazak.
