The arrogance of the city

Chapter 1238 Arriving in Halsey

Before dawn, two figures left Cheraka town.

"Are you an active soldier? Or a mercenary?"

Since leaving the small courtyard, Chloe's eyes have been on Li Futu's body, and she rarely left.

The scene where Li Futu slaughtered the Quartet just now undoubtedly gave her quite a shock.

"Don't you feel scared?"

Li Futu asked, with so many corpses, they would definitely not be able to sleep any longer, and there was no guarantee that their other accomplices would come over in a steady stream. In order to avoid trouble, he simply took Chloe away from Cheraka in advance. Embark on a journey to Halsey Swamp.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Afraid of you?"

Li Futu nodded.

"Why should I be afraid of you?"

Chloe asked back.

"Is it because you killed so many people just now?"

Chloe said firmly: "They are terrorists and should be killed. But you are a good person."

Li Futu was noncommittal.

"Did you really hide under the bed just now?"

Chloe nodded immediately, and said with a smile: "Am I smart? Otherwise, I'm afraid I'm really dead. Hey, if I die, will you be sad?"

Chloe inherited the glorious tradition of the Westerners, bold and unrestrained, her eyes exposed outside the veil looked at Li Futu with a scorching heat that could be felt.

"Why am I sad?"

Li Futu is not a person who is not good at words, besides, it is about half a day's walk from Halsey, so it is not bad to chat with Chloe to pass the time.

"Didn't your Dragon Kingdom have a saying called 'Friends in Need'? Don't we?"

Chloe seems to have studied the culture of the Dragon Kingdom a little bit, but Li Futu couldn't help but laugh when he said the phrase 'friend in need'.

"Friends in need" describes that they supported each other through some ordeals, but since the acquaintance, it seems that he is "fighting alone".

Of course, it is impossible for him to explain the specific meaning of this word to Chloe in detail, after all, he is not the cultural ambassador of Dragon Kingdom.

"why are you laughing?"

Although they had only known each other for a day, after going through several dangerous situations, Chloe seemed to have regarded Li Futu as a friend, and patted him very intimately.

"By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

"You have to keep secret what you're here for, not to mention your occupation, you can't even tell your name, right? I've told you everything."

"Li An."

Li Futu didn't change his face, and used an alias again.

"Go faster."

"it is good."

The roads from Cheraka and Halsey are not easy to walk, and they are all undeveloped primitive roads, but Chloe did not complain of suffering or tiredness, and was very strong and resolute.

That's right, daring to come here alone is enough to see that Chloe is definitely not an ordinary cowardly woman. Besides, she was able to stabilize her mood so quickly after so many people died, which further confirms this point .

"Take a break."

At noon, Li Futu finally stopped.

In the equatorial region, the sun is too hot, and when it shines directly on the skin, you can feel the burning sensation directly. Most people will not be able to bear it for a long time. Naturally, he doesn't mind it, but after all, we still have to take care of Chloe as a woman. .

"How far is it to Halsey Marsh?"

Chloe was sitting under a big tree wiping sweat, even Li Futu was a little surprised by this woman's stubbornness.

If he didn't say rest, I'm afraid the other party will continue to move forward.

"We're almost here. Have you seen those two mountains? Just climb over those two mountains and we'll reach the largest swamp in the world."

Chloe followed Li Futu's gaze to the southeast.

Two mountains, like sleeping giants, overlapped one after the other, blocking her view.

"It's finally here."

she murmured.

"Drink some water."

Li Futu threw the kettle over.

"Thank you."

"It's still too late to retreat now. If you want to come out after you go in, it won't be so easy."

Li Futu said softly.

"It's already here, how can I leave, even if it is dangerous, I will go in and try."

Chloe was as firm and resolute as ever.

Li Futu didn't say any more.

"Then let's rest for a while."

The two stayed for about an hour, avoiding the worst of the sun, before resuming their journey.

"Hey, what kind of flower is this? It's so beautiful!"

On the way over the first mountain, Chloe saw a white flower blooming by the side of the road, and went forward to pick it in surprise, but was stopped by Li Futu.

"Don't touch it."

Chloe paused, and turned around suspiciously.

"what happened?"

Li Futu looked at the flower.

White petals, red flower heart, looks really beautiful.

"This is the Lost Soul Orchid. Although it looks good, the pollen has the effect of paralyzing the nervous system. If you take too much of it, serious consequences can cause permanent nerve damage."

Chloe showed shock, and subconsciously took two steps back.

"so smart?"

"Don't forget where this is."

After glancing at the Lost Soul Orchid, Li Futu started walking again.

"Although you haven't reached the Halsey Swamp yet, you should always be vigilant. Here, any vegetation may contain deadly poison. You'd better not touch it casually. You must remember that this is the most dangerous place in the world. One, it is not a resort, if you are not careful, you may lose your life, if you can't understand this, you enter the Halsey Swamp, you are just dying."

Chloe immediately followed, never looking at the enchanting orchid.

"Have you ever been here? How do you know everything?"

"How many people in this world will come here without any preparation?"

Li Futu said indifferently: "Perhaps you are the only one."

Chloe said: "But I don't have that much time to prepare."

Li Futu didn't speak any more.

After that, Chloe was indeed a lot more cautious. Although it was inevitable to look around curiously, she didn't touch anything at will, and kept following Li Futu closely.

In more than two hours, two mountains were crossed.

"Ahead, there is Halsey Swamp."

In front of Chloe was a tropical rainforest, which seemed boundless just now on the mountain, but at least standing here at this moment, this most dangerous swamp in the world did not make people feel any daunting sense of danger at all.

"Thank you."

Chloe turned her head: "How much compensation do you need?"

"No need."

Li Futu was a good person who made a selfless contribution once, and after delivering the person, he turned around and planned to leave.

"Can we meet again?"

Chloe's voice came from behind.

Li Futu turned his head and glanced at the face that hadn't taken off the veil from the beginning to the end.

His eyes were inexplicable, and he smiled slightly.

"I think it should, don't you?"
