When Shouhou suddenly realized his fate.
He was seeing his palm gradually dissipate and turn into white light particles, floating in the air.
At this moment, he seemed to remember all the things he had deliberately forgotten. When he was lying outside the barren and dry land, in the blank area where they had always thought there was no danger, he struggled repeatedly between two thoughts.
One side of him was exhausted and wanted to just fall asleep; the other side of him urged himself to get up and complete the surveillance task.
Now that I think about it, the latter idea is just an excuse for my survival instinct.
Compared with life, how can surveillance be so important?
Amidst the repeated pull of the two thoughts, the other "he" stood up from the body, looked at himself lying down, and then forcibly forgot about it.
As if nothing happened, he continued to complete the task of monitoring Wang Chen.
The light granulation spread from the palm to the entire arm, until his entire body gradually turned transparent.
He stretched out his hands towards his scavenger teammates, and moved his lips as if he wanted to say something, but those last words, like his body, drifted away in the wind.
Bald Biao looked at the thin monkey who had disappeared.
He felt a hard stone choking his heart, and his eyes turned red.
The mood of the other scavengers was not much better. They all lowered their heads and said nothing, and the atmosphere became depressed.
"Okay, stop whining here and go bury the skinny monkey!"
Fu Yunsheng clapped his hands and pulled everyone out of their sadness.
Two scavengers from the group came out, dragged the skinny monkey's body away, and dug a hole in the ground.
Bald Biao walked over and slapped them on the head.
"Do you want the skinny monkey to become a dark guardian? Bury him somewhere else!"
This place has not yet reached the swamp range, but after what happened just now, he no longer dares to use his limited judgment to speculate on this infinite and mysterious space.
So the two of them picked up the thin monkey and prepared to find another place.
Fu Yunsheng frowned and said:
"In that case, let's set fire to his body!"
Bald Biao looked at him in shock.
"Boss, you won't go to this extent, will you? Shouhou said that everyone in his hometown must be buried, otherwise their souls will be scattered!"
Fu Yunsheng said coldly:
"You have also seen how weird this place is. We have been here for a long time, but there are still curses and uncertainties that we have never seen before!"
With that said, he walked up to Bald Biao and continued in a deep voice:
"Can you guarantee that Skinny Monkey won't turn into something else? If he mutates, we may be his first target!"
Fu Yunsheng saw Bald Biao's gloomy face and said impatiently:
"Don't cry in despair, think on the bright side, at least we know the curse effect of an area again!"
"When Lao Huang goes to buy supplies next time, I will trade this information by the way, so that everyone can have a few good meals by then!"
Bald Biao was speechless.
Seeing this, the two scavengers continued to carry away the body of the thin monkey.
In fact, Bald Biao wanted to ask just now, if the thin monkey had not been pointed out by them about the situation of death, would he have been able to survive in that special form.
But now, he understood what Fu Yunsheng was thinking.
They all felt that there were unknown secrets in this place, but Bald Biao hoped that the secrets could bring his brother back; while Fu Yunsheng hoped that all kinds of secrets would not harm the team of scavengers.
In other words, don't endanger himself.
so.
Bald Biao decided not to say anything.
…
Wang Chen walked alone in the mire.
Every step he took was difficult, but there was no other way. He couldn't even use a magic scroll to rush, right?
At the same time he also realized.
In the future, you can't just choose powerful scrolls to buy. Maybe bronze scrolls with specific effects will be of unexpected use in such terrain.
When he saw the information about this place for the first time in the illustrated book, he was still full of confidence. Isn't it just a quagmire?
He could just like those wild survivalists, chop some wood to increase the surface area, float on the mud, and deal with it calmly.
But who would have thought.
There are not even trees with roots that can be used to make timber anywhere near here.
Wang Chen secretly told himself that he would have to be prepared for everything in the future.
Speaking of which, he still needs to obtain two Hearts of Darkness, so he is currently looking for other Dark Guardians.
Beasts like the Dark Guardian belong to the kind of beasts that live in large groups and in small groups. In other words, their gathering places will be in a certain area.
But each Dark Guardian will have its own small territory, and no other Dark Guardian is allowed in its own territory.
There are certainly benefits to this.
At least Wang Chen would not be besieged and unable to defend himself.
The downside, of course, is that finding the way is too difficult.
He had a high-power headlamp on his head, illuminating the road ahead like daylight. Of course, he was also well prepared for protection. Three lightning barriers were slowly floating around him.
Click...click...
There was a sound like gears grinding around.
Wang Chen, who had experienced a lot of offensive and defensive battles in the ring, was already very familiar with this voice. He looked around as if facing a formidable enemy. Every inch of the nearby black and purple swamp seemed to be hiding a prehistoric giant crocodile.
"Shua——"
A black shadow passed by the edge of the range illuminated by the headlights.
Wang Chen held Sen Zhilan tightly in his hand, preparing to give the Dark Guardian a showdown as soon as he showed up.
"Bang!"
A voice came from behind Wang Chen, and a strong wind blew.
More than one Dark Guardian?
Wang Chen was shocked.
He wanted to jump away to avoid the attack from behind, but the quagmire trapped his feet tightly.
The blow hit solidly.
Wang Chen felt as if he was sitting in a sports car that could drive up to 300 miles, enjoying the ultimate push-back feeling.
The price was that the lightning barrier behind him flashed, then dimmed and shattered.
This time he was not prepared for the wrestling in advance, and the giant force slapped him forward, and his feet were brought out of the mire.
Even though he used his palms to support the ground, he still fell and his face was covered in mud. The edges of his palms were also scratched, and he felt a burning pain.
But Wang Chen had no time to take care of these things, he immediately tore up a magic scroll.
"Lingbing Shield (Silver Level)!"
Biting cold air spurted out from the magic seal, instantly forming an ice-blue shield around him, surrounding him.
It was almost a matter of the front and rear feet. Another impact hit the ice shield with a crash.
"There are indeed two dark guardians!"
Wang Chen can be sure.
Because the Dark Guardian he fought against before also sneaked and attacked him in the swamp, but it did not move so fast.
He didn't think that a higher level could increase the movement speed so much. If possible, don’t call it [Swamp Stealth], call it [Swamp Teleport] instead.
"But how come there are two dark guardians?"
He was very confused.
"In nature, creatures with strong territorial awareness like this can share their territory with other individuals. There is only one possibility, and that is to share the territory with their mates or cubs!"
Think of this.
He had a strange feeling.
The Dark Guardian, to be precise, shouldn't it be some kind of aggregation formed by the Heart of Darkness? Do they also need to mate and reproduce?
If so, would putting two hearts of darkness together produce a small heart of darkness?
so.
Opening a Heart of Darkness breeding farm might be a good prospect.
