Chapter 160 Three

Everglades. 【】

The Great Swamp Area of ​​the Glorious Continent is located in the west, stretching for thousands of miles. It is the birthplace of major rivers such as the Nucang River, and inhabits countless creatures.

For the vast majority of people on the mainland, the Everglades is a forbidden area where no strangers should enter.

And Leon once again stood on the edge of this restricted area, standing on a hill overlooking the Daze.

The morning fog had just dissipated, and the cool morning breeze blew across the water, the long water plants made a rustling sound, and a few unknown water birds flew up, making the Great Swamp area quiet and peaceful.

But Leon is very clear that behind this tranquility, there are countless dangers lurking.

"My lord, are you really going to find the Naga tribe? If they are against you, it will be too dangerous!" The hippopotamus warrior Tiepi tried to dissuade him at the end.

Leon crossed half of the territory and came to the Great Swamp area adjacent to the Thrall Territory, in order to find the Naga tribe, and the ultimate goal was to get the Amethyst Crystal.

This mysterious and peculiar magic crystal is only produced in the Great Swamp, and the Naga tribe, as a high-level race in the Great Swamp, is very likely to have the Amethyst Crystal. This is what Ugg, the hippo shaman, told Leon.

For the Purple Soul Crystal, Leon has made a lot of preparations. He will never give up halfway, so he knows that this journey involves great risks, and he will not give up easily.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger's son!

"We are going to visit as neighbors, and the Naga tribe will not be completely unreasonable, and they will shout and kill as soon as we meet?" Leon smiled, his eyes became firmer: "Let's go!"

There are no ready-made roads in the swamp, and the green grass is likely to be a quagmire. Every year, it is unknown how many animals stray into it and die. Unless you are very familiar with the swamp environment, you can come from it. Find out where you can go.

But the speed of moving forward like that is too slow, but Ironhide, as a former aborigine in the Great Swamp, naturally has his magic tricks.

A simple two-person canoe was placed in the swampy creek, and the long and thick hull easily carried Leon and Tinhide, two burly men.

This canoe was improvised last night. Tin Hide cut down a big tree with his tomahawk, trimmed it, dug out two cabins, and made two wooden oars along the way.

It might take a week for an ordinary person to make such a canoe, but the iron skin that has been promoted to a beast soul warrior is a powerful weapon, and it is not difficult for him to make a canoe, so it took only All done overnight.

The hippo warrior swung the paddle skillfully, and the canoe slid forward lightly, startling the water plants and birds by the river.

Traveling by water is much quicker and more convenient, but there are many aquatic monsters in the Great Swamp, so sailing on a river is dangerous.

Leon had played kayaking before, and it was not a problem to play this kind of earthen canoe. After a period of adaptation and familiarity, he and Iron Skin cooperated with each other to paddle, and the speed suddenly increased greatly.

Going upstream along the winding river, the two gradually penetrated into the great swamp.

The depths of the swamp became more and more quiet, the river flowed quietly, only the sound of wooden paddles paddling on the water surface, the river water was quite clear, and aquatic plants several feet deep could be seen.

Surrounded by water plants and reeds, there are river ponds and small lakes appearing from time to time, and occasionally dense mangrove forests appear, without the slightest trace of human habitation.

There was a faint mist in the swamp, and the scene in the distance was hazy and not clear at all.

Tin Hide slowed down the speed of the boat, reached out and plucked some turquoise grass leaves with small thorns from the river bank and handed them to Leon: "Master, this is thornweed, chewing it in your mouth can prevent swamp miasma."

The miasma in the Great Swamp is a natural barrier that prevents the invasion of outsiders. Only the Hippo and Naga residents who have lived here for a long time are not afraid.

Leon took the thornweed and chewed it in his mouth. It tasted sweet and sweet like a vegetable salad, and the taste was actually not bad.

Bang!

All of a sudden, the canoe shook violently, as if it hit something underneath, and Leon, who was caught off guard, almost lost his grip on the wooden paddle.

"It's a water beast, I'll deal with it!" Tie Hide said in a deep voice, "My lord, please dock the boat first!"

While speaking, the hippo warrior quickly took off his leather armor, pulled out a short knife from his waist, bit his mouth, turned over and jumped into the river, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The originally calm river surface suddenly surged undercurrents, and Leon, who leaned the boat aside, found two black shadows entangled in the river, but the stirred up muddy current quickly completely covered the scene of the water, making him Not sure either.

The underwater situation was unknown, so Leon could only pull out the tiger thorn saber and hold it in his hand, ready to go into the water for support at any time.

As a former member of the Special Forces, he is of course no stranger to underwater combat, but he must be no match for Iron Skin, after all, the other party is a natural water warrior.

Just a moment later, a stream of dark red blood floated from the water to the surface, and Leon's heart sank involuntarily.

Whoa!

Just when Leon was feeling worried, the water surface not more than ten feet away from him suddenly splashed, and the bald iron head popped out first, with the sharp short blade still biting in his mouth.

He waved his arms and quickly swam to the side of the canoe, jumped up from the water and landed firmly on his own position, his naked upper body was covered with water droplets, without any sign of injury.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he took the iron belt by his side and went into the swamp to look for the Naga tribe. If something happened to the iron belt, he would not only have difficulty explaining to Elder Wuge Shaman, but also had to stop this trip.

"Let's go!" Tiepi hastily propped the oar on the river bank, exerted a sudden force, and the canoe slid out like an arrow off the string.

The sound of the water suddenly became louder, and Leon went backwards while paddling, only to see a five or six-foot-long river beast floating on the surface of the water with its belly turned upside down, and black shadows approaching rapidly appeared in the water behind.

These black shadows were obviously attracted by the smell of blood. They opened their mouths full of sharp teeth, desperately biting the corpse, and the sound of chewing one after another was creepy.

"It's a gray helmet fish. It likes to attack canoes the most. Fortunately, it is not very strong, otherwise it will be troublesome to attract other water animals around!" I stabbed it through the head with a single knife, it wouldn't work before!"

The canoe quickly moved away from the dangerous school of fish.

But this does not mean that they have entered a safe area. On the contrary, as the two continue to go deeper, more and more dangers appear.

The gray-backed helmet fish came to make trouble from time to time, and even an iron-backed crocodile lurking in the muddy river by the river wanted to sneak up on Leon, but the two of them avoided it in time.

Under Ironhide's suggestion, Leon didn't get entangled with these swamp water beasts, and left quickly after avoiding them. If the water beasts persisted, he would be taught a harsh lesson.

Under such circumstances, the standard heavy crossbow that Leon placed on the space ring played a huge role. Those water beasts that came after them usually gave up after being hit by an arrow and tasted the pain, and they even fought with other water beasts because of injuries. The beasts kill each other.

In the ring of space, Leon has stored hundreds of crossbow bolts, and there is no need to worry about using them.

The sky gradually began to darken, and the two walked in the Great Swamp for almost a day, but according to Tinhide, they were still far from the real heart of the Great Swamp.

It used to be the birthplace of the Hippo tribe, and it is said that there is a huge temple standing there, but those are all memories of the distant past.

The river became very narrow, and the rotting trees blocked the way, making it very difficult for the canoe to travel. Seeing that the sun had almost disappeared below the horizon, Ironhide decided to abandon the boat and land nearby to camp.

Of course Leon had no objection, the two dragged the canoe to the shore and put it away, Tiepi quickly found a small forest nearby.

This forest is actually composed of a huge red banyan tree. The huge tree crown covers a space of hundreds of feet in the direction. Its vine roots hang down and form new trunks. The descendants and grandchildren are completely tightly reunited families.

The big swamp at night is ten times more dangerous than during the day. There are no forests to hide in caves, and the tangled branches of red banyan trees are relatively the safest place to camp.

Bie Tinpi's body was strong and fat, and he climbed up the tree without hesitation. He grabbed a thick wooden vine and stepped on the trunk, slowly climbing up the tall branches.

"My lord, it's not bad here, you come up too!"

Leon nodded, reached out and grabbed a wooden vine.

Just when he was about to jump up and climb up, a sudden change occurred!

call out!

A black fleshy tentacle suddenly jumped up from the ground full of fallen leaves, wrapped around Leon's ankle with lightning speed, and pulled it back violently.

The Lurker's attack came without warning, and with Leon's keen perception, he didn't detect it in advance, and caught off guard on the spot, he was dragged off the vine.

However, Leon's reaction was also extremely fast, he took out the Lei Yan Saber from the space ring with a movement of his left hand, swung it out completely based on his feeling, and chopped off the tentacle wrapped around his ankle!

Hiss!

An extremely ugly hissing sound suddenly sounded, the tentacles were chopped into two pieces by the saber, and the wound at the other end was sprayed with disgusting dark green mucus, and quickly retracted.

Leon kicked off the remaining tentacles wrapped around his ankles, and immediately jumped up from the ground.

He arrived immediately, and in the mud that was only a dozen steps away from him, a huge black object jumped up high. , Kung Fu Panda, Xianyunbu, book friend 100122220343059 and other friends for their support, thank you for all the friends who subscribed and supported, the subscription has increased recently, I am very happy at Laoye!
