At noon on the third day of the march, Luo Lin and his soldiers walked to the middle of the wetland section. More than ten miles ahead were the mission destination Mizuo Town.

Mizuo Town is located deep in the wetlands, like an isolated island overseas. It rose because of a gold mining boom. However, as the gold mines were gradually mined, the town gradually declined. In the past decade, the town has basically been deserted. Its only function is to provide a temporary place for wetland adventurers.

However, her position is too remote, and not many adventurers are willing to settle here.

The wetland is very wet, with swamps and puddles from time to time, and the only passage is also full of mud and difficult to walk.

‘Pa, Pa, Pa, Pa,’ the horse’s hooves trampled on the ground, splashing out black mud and water. The team kept clattering applause, which was the soldiers driving away the annoying mosquitoes.

It is now May, and Vandom is located in the south. Today it is sunny and the weather is getting a little hot, especially in this wetland, which makes it even more stuffy.

"Ah~" Dai Wei suddenly exclaimed softly, Luo Lin was startled, and turned to look and saw a spider with a fist hanging in front of Dai Wei. The spider was black and red in color, with poisonous fangs, and a black widow, a specialty of the swamp. If bitten by this thing, it would immediately have a high fever, and in severe cases it could even cause death.

Luo Lin's hand shook slightly, and the sword had been pulled out by him. A flash of sword light, and the black widow spider was cut in half and flew out.

"Get close to me, don't go far." Rollin told softly.

"Okay." Dai Wei responded, drove the horse away and tried to follow Luo Lin.

After walking for a while, she raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead. She couldn't help but scratch her neck gently, and red spots on her cheeks and arms. This was bitten by a mosquito. It was very itchy. She suspected that if she was bitten by this hateful mosquito when she casts a spell, her magic power would be disordered and she had to stop casting. If she was a little more unlucky, she might become the first magician in history to be killed by a mosquito.

She hadn't been able to take a shower for three days, and she felt sweaty all over, sticky and uncomfortable. She would never be able to bear it when she first left Vandom. But in the past few days, she had adapted to this hard life. Although she was extremely uncomfortable, she could at least not scream.

While walking, Luo Lin, who was beside him, suddenly reached over. She soon found a ball of white flower mud in his hand.

"Silver Star Flower, the first batch of flowers blooming this year, can be used to relieve itching and calming, and rub it on your neck and hands." Luo Lin said softly. This was what he specifically ordered the scout to pick it.

Dai Wei nodded and took it and tried it. She suddenly felt a cool feeling coming from the itchy and painful red dots, and she suddenly felt refreshed. Her whole body was much more transparent and comfortable.

"Thanks."

"Haha~" Luo Lin smiled at her, then turned to continue listening to the scout's report.

"Sir, further forward, there is a gentle slope. The terrain begins to rise and the ground will become dryer. If you walk about five miles away, you will be Mizuo Town."

"How is the situation in the town?"

The scout showed a hint of doubt on his face and shook his head and said, "It's strange that no one saw it. Many houses were dilapidated and collapsed. From a distance, it looked like ruins. The entire town seemed to be completely abandoned."

"No one?" Rollin asked again, "What about the situation around the town?"

"We were surrounded by weeds everywhere and we didn't see any trace of anyone living."

Rollin nodded: "Oh, I understand, you go and have a drink of water first and have a rest."

From this point of view, this town has been abandoned. It is very likely that the Destruction Sect knew that the news had leaked and retreated in advance. But this is just a possibility. It is also possible that these sects deliberately made the town seem deserted and unnoticed, while they lived in secret.

No matter what, they have already walked here and have to go and take a look in person.

"Start up and keep moving forward." Luo Lin shouted loudly.

The horse was urged by the riders and began to trot. In less than twenty minutes, they walked the last five miles and arrived at the periphery of Mizuo Town.

The scenes I saw here were as dilapidated, depressed, and declining as the scouts said.

The streets of the town paved with black slag were covered with tender green weeds, the walls of the wooden houses on the roadside were black, and were covered with honeycomb-like cavities, and the moist and dark corners were covered with moss. There was a large windmill mill in the middle of the town. The wind leaves of the windmill were also broken and covered with green vines.

All signs indicate that this town has been abandoned for at least half a year.

"Sir, look!" A scout suddenly shouted, pointing at the grass on the side of the road ahead.

Luo Lin looked over and saw a rotten corpse lying quietly among a weed, with a large number of flies buzzing around the corpse.

Without Luo Lin's instructions, the scout had already run over to check. Several people looked through it, and then the scout captain came back to report.

"Sir, judging from the level of decay, he should be a passerby adventurer. Judging from the degree of decay, he should have died less than a week. He had many wounds on his body, and the fatal wounds were on his back. Judging from the appearance of the wound, he should have been poked out with a dagger. He should have been attacked here."

A week? A sneak attack? Rollin narrowed his eyes and smelled some unusual smell.

After thinking for a while, he issued an order: "Listen to my order, a group of ten people will be divided into investigations of the town!"

"Yes, sir."

The soldiers scattered and began to look for abnormal clues in the town. Rollin also turned over and got off the horse's back and walked to the corpse to watch.

The scout captain was still inspecting the body. He looked through it very carefully, hoping to find more clues.

"Stop!" When the scout captain opened the corpse's pocket, Luo Lin called him, then squatted down and looked carefully.

The pocket looks very clean, but when you look carefully at the bottom of the pocket, there are some white powder left. Luo Lin stretched out his hand and dipped it in front of him to look carefully. These are some crystals. They are highly transparent, and each one has the same oblique quadrilateral. The sunlight penetrates these small crystals and is easily divided into various colors, showing the high refractive index of the crystal.

"It's the shattering of Spell Crystal." Dai Wei's voice sounded, and she came over and recognized this thing at a glance. She is a magician and often deals with Spell Crystal.

Luo Lin felt aroused in his heart when he heard this.

"Sir. This adventurer should have been a thief during his lifetime." Captain Scout also made a new discovery: "Look at this, there is a small mark in the gap between the fingers, which is a pattern of a butterfly knife. Many small thieves like to calibrate their members in this part. Look at his fingers, there are calluses in the middle of the index finger and middle finger. The thief likes to cut open the target's pocket with their blades."

The dwarf didn't say anything. He looked at the town in the distance, thinking about how to abandon these troublesome bugs. (To be continued...)
