"Crash", the little golden man in the swamp moved his legs. The pulling force was not too great, and his mobility was not particularly affected.
But here, it's just on the outside of the clay swamp. As we continue to go deeper into the interior, it may be more than just a bit of mud under our feet.
As the golden man moves, circles of water patterns gradually spread out.
In the distance, a few pieces of dead wood floating disorderly suddenly changed direction and floated towards this side.
The dead trees approached silently, and when they got closer to the golden man and the others, they suddenly rose up.
He opened his bloody mouth and attacked the team.
There is no dead wood here. They are clearly thick swamp crocodiles, but they look like dead wood on the water.
However, they found the wrong opponent.
"Snapped!"
The mountain bear stood up and slapped the swamp crocodile on the head with its huge bear paw.
The huge force caused its head to collapse and fall to the water, lifeless.
Although the mountain bear has the ability of earth magic, its fighting method is still biased towards close combat. As a member of the bear clan, its power is amazing.
The Swamp Crocodile is just an ordinary two-star alien beast, so it is naturally difficult to resist its attack.
The other swamp crocodiles were even worse. They encountered a Dark Moon Werewolf and were grabbed directly from the water and torn in half.
There were also those who were tied up with straw canes and cut open in twos and threes, and some who were nailed into the water by Friday's knife.
The blood instantly dyed the dim water red, and some of the "dead trees" that were attracted in the distance suddenly changed their direction and floated back in the opposite direction.
There was silence in the swamp, and the woods and water surface, which were originally a bit impatient, became completely silent.
Chu Xin did not pursue rashly. The terrain in the swamp was very complicated. He had to first understand the situation in front of him.
Rosa was sent out. She could transform into a bat, with a small target and fast speed. She could figure out the scope of the swamp and the enemies lurking in it as quickly as possible.
Logically speaking, the scope of a four-star stronghold should not be particularly large.
This proved to be the case, and in less than ten minutes, Rosa returned to the golden villain.
Although Rosa flies very fast, and the clone does not have time to waste time, the entire area can be explored in less than ten minutes of flight time, which is enough to show that the swamp is not actually that big.
The entire clay swamp is only about two kilometers away from the central area from where the golden man is.
There are many monsters in the swamp, mainly three types: clay monsters, sludge monsters, and swamp crocodiles, as well as some other creatures that are not within the scope of extermination.
Swamp crocodiles are the crocodiles we just encountered. Their strength is only two stars. They are relatively common predatory beasts in the swamp.
Sludge monsters are the kind of unlucky things that fairies once threw in their territories. They are weak in strength, but extremely disgusting. Their strength ranges from one to three stars.
Clay monster, the advanced form of sludge monster, is slightly stronger, with mostly three stars.
Finally, in the center of the swamp, there is a four-star clay giant with peak strength and four less powerful four-star clay monsters. It feels like this is the BOSS of the swamp.
The overall monster strength is not strong, but with today's swamp environment, some things are uncertain.
The terrain is very unfavorable for him. Although the Red Winged Tiger is a flying unit, its strength is still somewhat compromised in this environment as it favors the fire type.
Creatures such as Darkmoon Werewolves and Mountain Bears must also move carefully in the swamp.
It's a pity that the mountain bears' earth element perception is greatly reduced when faced with this swampy terrain. At most, they can only sense the mud below, but they cannot tell what the mud is like and how deep it is.
After thinking for a while, Chu Xin quickly made arrangements for the team. The ten red-winged tigers and dark moon werewolves were divided into ten teams.
Working in groups of two, the Darkmoon Werewolves rode Red Winged Tigers and were responsible for cleaning up the scattered monsters scattered everywhere.
The combination of two five-star troops should be able to run rampant in this swamp where the highest strength is only four-star.
The remaining golden villain, Friday, Cao Tuan, Rosa and four mountain bears went to conquer the clay monsters in the middle that were suspected to be BOSS.
"Boom!"
The rock and soil puppet was summoned. Its tall body is a good platform and it is also an excellent mine detection engineer.
Chu Xin hugged the grass ball and jumped on its shoulders. Friday and Shanxiong followed closely behind the rock and soil puppet due to space problems.
With thunder, they don't need to worry about the swamp that may appear at any time.
Rosa maintained her bat form, and she was the most comfortable among the entire team.
Not long after the team moved forward, the water gradually became shallower, but the silt became deeper unknowingly.
Soon, the team encountered the first monster, a two-star sludge monster.
he...tui...tuitui!
This is a brave sludge monster. When faced with such an amazing team, its first reaction is to spit out sludge.
"Snapped"!
The foul-smelling sludge fell on the body of the rock and soil puppet directly in front and spread out in all directions. Chu Xin's brain automatically imagined a foul smell.
Disgusting, it has to be this.
Rosa, who was in mid-air, slid down, transformed into a human form, and pierced the sludge monster's body with a dagger.
Fortunately, it was a copy of Mo De's feelings. In reality, it would be absolutely impossible for Rosa to have a close fight with such a dirty thing.
The dagger landed on the sludge monster, seemingly without any resistance, and broke into it easily, sinking into it along with Rosa's hand.
Rosa tried to pull it out, but suddenly felt a resistance, as if there were hands inside the sludge monster, pulling her dagger tightly.
"Gene Era"
Fortunately, the resistance was not too great, and Rosa easily pulled out the dagger.
Before the second attack, her expression suddenly changed, and her feet suddenly became weak, as if she was sinking.
This is a swamp!
Rosa quickly transformed into a bat state and flew into the air.
The sludge monster seems to have the ability to soften the ground and create swamps, and the body made of sludge seems to be immune to physical attacks.
Chu Xin came to two conclusions from the news fed back by Rosa.
These abilities are not a big deal in a normal environment, but in this environment, they seem a bit disgusting.
If you can't get close, then try another method.
Friday threw the bone knife in his hand, and a large and fine net formed in mid-air, covering the sludge monster.
Its bone knife is very interesting and can change into various forms. I wonder if the big web in front of me is a sudden whim after seeing the soul-binding spider web.
Maybe Friday can learn more weapon principles and further develop the bone knife into ever-changing weapon forms.
The bone net successfully trapped the sludge monster, but when Friday manipulated and dragged it back, the sludge monster suddenly seemed to melt and turned into a pool of liquid and flowed out from the gaps in the bone net.
Tui!
The liquid that fell back into the water quickly gathered into a sludge monster that opened its mouth.
"Snapped"!
A bolt of thunder fell from the sky and struck the mud monster. Mud water splashed everywhere and scattered half of the mud monster's body.
After a brief stagnation, the charred mud monster began to squirm again, and the surrounding mud replenished its body bit by bit, but it did not die.
"Snapped"!
Chu Xin used another lightning technique, which completely ended the mud monster's sinful life.
The sludge monster is so disgusting!
Its attack power is almost non-existent. Like the cute king, it can only pull people into its body and devour it.
Other than that, there are only small methods such as spraying sludge, trampling on dignity, and softening the swamp and trapping people in it.
But its special physique makes it very resistant to various attacks.
Chu Xin felt that this thing must have some kind of weakness, otherwise, the two stars would inevitably treat it too badly.
He guessed that the other party should have a place similar to a core. The sludge outside can be discarded at any time, but this core cannot be discarded.
Once you find this core, physical attacks can also easily destroy it.
Chu Xin, who understood this, was no longer in a hurry to rush to the central area. Sludge monsters, clay monsters, and clay giants should be the same race.
If you sharpen your sword and chop wood carefully, and understand their weaknesses, you will be able to kill clay giants faster in the future.
Not long after, the team discovered the second wave of monsters, three sludge monsters gathered together.
Without giving them a chance to react, Cao Tuan directly used dense rattan to build a grass cage and captured the three sludge monsters.
There may be some gaps in the grass cages of the grass balls, but under the layers of grass vines, even if they melt their bodies and want to flow out, it will take a certain amount of time.
What awaits the sludge monsters is a large earth box that the earth bears worked together to open up.
The sludge monster tried to soften it, but the soil bears were also four-star creatures after all. They were not given a chance to escape, and the newly softened soil instantly became hard again.
Chu Xin looked at the sludge monsters that were spread out into several groups in the earthen box and bumped around, and separated one of the groups.
As the sludge was peeled off, the sludge ball became smaller and smaller. Chu Xin clearly saw a small dark black ball, about the size of a table tennis ball, which was very inconspicuous.
With one stroke of the knife, the black ball burst into pieces, and the mud that was trying to gather around it stopped squirming.
Sure enough, this is the true body of the mud monster. As long as you can attack it, you can easily kill the mud monster.
After understanding this, the golden villain quickly informed most of the troops of this message. Within a certain range, it can directly command.
This is the benefit of the golden villain entering the dungeon. He can command and convey any messages quickly.
If this clay swamp is cleared by Friday, maybe this guy will bring all the troops in the team into the mud.
After finding the weakness of the sludge monster, the team can move forward much faster. However, occasionally encountering alert sludge monsters will hide in the mud, which is more troublesome.
Although the grass balls instinctively resisted entering the mud, they were forced to search inside and finally got them out of the mud.
Along the way, he encountered monsters, killed them, and took detours when encountering swamps. Although the speed was full, Chu Xin continued to move forward steadily and firmly.
During this period, the rock and soil puppets were trapped several times. Fortunately, there were mountain bears and grass balls. The rattan and the mountain bears' earth spells prevented the rock and soil puppets from being swallowed by the mud.
It took Chu Xin nearly an hour and a half to complete the two-kilometer road.
Finally, he saw the core of the swamp, the clay giant and its little followers.
The three-meter-tall clay giant seemed a bit unsightly in front of the four- to five-meter-tall rock and soil puppet.
As soon as they came up, the clay giant gave Chu Xin a surprise, a quagmire spell that directly covered the entire team of the golden villain.
"Rumble", the two-meter-tall clay monster rushed up, trying to add insult to injury.
But Chu Xin didn't give them a chance. The grass and vines flew around, throwing the mountain bear and Friday out of the swamp, and then wrapped around the trees in the distance with a "swish", dragging the golden man with him and swinging over. .
However, the rock and soil puppet cannot be saved.
The mud swamp technique performed by the clay giant was far more dangerous than those natural swamps. The rock and soil puppet sank so fast that it sank to its waist in less than a minute.
Chu Xin didn't feel bad at all, the time was almost up anyway.
"Go on, chop it off!"
The first to launch the attack was the little golden man who was carried near the clay giant by the vines of the grass. The withered bow trembled and the dark cursed arrow flew out.
If your level is not good enough, show off your skills!
Silent curse, accurate hit.
The second wave of quagmire magic that the Clay Giant was brewing was stillborn.
"thump"!
There was a sound of heavy objects falling into the water, and Friday and the four fat mountain bears were thrown together by the grass balls near the clay giant.
The little golden man who had retreated to a safe area raised his hand and used a lightning technique, hitting the clay giant, leaving a scorched black mark.
Following closely behind, Friday jumped high in the air. The sharp bone knife easily broke through the muddy body of the clay giant. From top to bottom, he seemed to be cutting it in half.
But halfway in, the blade encountered great resistance, and there was even a vague feeling of being sucked away, and the broken bodies were quickly coming together and connected.
At the same time, the clay giant struck out with a heavy punch and struck hard towards Friday, who was trapped by the bone knife.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Friday kicked the clay giant's body and drew his sword in time, but he could not avoid the clay giant's fist.
"Wow"!
Friday, who was holding his shield, fell into the water. He stood up quickly and was unscathed. The clay giant's fist was neither painful nor itchy to him, and the shield seemed unnecessary.
On the other side, the mountain bear stood on the rock armor and splashed the four clay monsters with mud, but it had no real effect.
Mountain bear attacks always land on the surface, knocking off some of the exterior clay, but it is quickly replenished.
However, the combat effectiveness of these clay monsters was very low. Apart from waving their fists twice and trying to wrap their bodies around the giant claws of the mountain bears, they were unable to cause any substantial damage.
Chu Xin finally saw that the monsters in this series were just disgusting.
At this time, there was a sound in the air, and the reinforcements of the golden villain arrived.
