Chapter 69 Abandoned Swamp

The dense aquatic plants and duckweed grow in a mess on the silt full of rotten smell. The vast aquatic plants are scattered with countless quagmire, puddles, and miasma that never dissipates all year round, and poisonous fog covers here.

This is the abandoned swamp located in the Elf Kingdom and the Human Kildan Kingdom area, one of the top ten famous dangerous places on the continent.

The dangerous land on the mainland is more dangerous the deeper it goes, but the abandoned swamp is completely different. There may be danger hidden in every corner of it. The seemingly flat ground may be a bottomless mud, and the most fierce monsters may lurk under the calm water plants. Poisonous miasma may float in the humid and uncomfortable air at any time.

Because this area is too dangerous, mercenaries and explorers dare not enter, and it has become a veritable abandoned place.

On this day, two figures appeared outside the rare abandoned swamp. It was Arthur and Aretha who came from the Ice Valley of Despair.

More than half a month ago, Arthur broke through and successfully advanced to the war school warrior. Although he successfully advanced, he was violent during the promotion process, and the hot Dou Qi also left countless hidden injuries on the meridians. Arthur continued to soak in the spring of vitality for seven days before basically recovering the hidden injuries of the meridians and being able to use Dou Qi with all his strength.

Before Arthur could be happy to become a warrior in the war school, new troubles followed.

After being promoted to the battle school, the fighting energy in Arthur's body had become the form of a fire dragon. Every time he practiced, a huge fire dragon wandered in the meridians and continuously absorbed the fighting energy from the outside world to strengthen himself. Losing the suppression of the Ice Spirit Heart Pendant, the expansion and burning of the meridians when the fire dragon wandered made Arthur extremely painful.

Arthur relived the pain when he first practiced this set of skills, and it was even more serious than before. Every practice was a torture of death for Arthur. Even practicing in the Fountain of Vitality did not relieve much.

Even Aretha was helpless about this, because Arthur was the first warrior to advance through "Danyang Refining God" and had no experience to learn from.

Aretha finally gave Arthur two suggestions. One was to slow down the speed of the Dou Qi, and the fire dragon wandered in the meridians and the impact and burning damage on the meridians would naturally be reduced. The second was to use the crystal core of the ice dragon as a transitor. Every time the fire dragon operated, it would go in and out of the crystal core, and use the crystal core to filter the violent fire energy of the fire dragon.

Aretha's method is indeed effective, allowing Arthur to practice under the pain that he can bear. However, there is a serious use of the vice president, which is to greatly reduce Arthur's cultivation speed. According to the current speed of the Dou Qi rotation, Arthur may have to practice for 30 years to accumulate enough fighting energy accumulation required by the general.

In desperation, Arthur could only practice while finding solutions, and the greatest hope was the mysterious ruins Randall once said.

Aretha believed that Arthur had just entered the battle school and Joan had not yet become a high-level magician. They did not have the conditions to enter that ruin, so they took Arthur to abandon the swamp and complete the task of promoting the A-level mercenary group. At the same time, they completed their promise to the old dragon Walton, and found Haigil in the swamp.

The humid air made Arthur, who was covered in martial arts uniforms, feel uncomfortable, but he did not dare to expose the skin outside his head and face. The exposed skin in the swamp would inadvertently attract various attacks from insects and poisonous mosquitoes.

Aretha, who was wearing blue martial arts uniform beside Arthur, had a slightly sweaty nose on her forehead. Even though she was so powerful that the warriors could not help with this harsh environment. This was one of the reasons why she did not agree to Lao Long's request back then.

The only person who is not bored with this place is probably the little fairy Gru, who likes it as long as there is ice and water environment.

At this time, he was running happily in the mud of water and grass. His white body was covered with mud and water. The ice fairy turned into an almost earth fairy. Looking closely, his body was actually taller than before.

Arthur exploded the Ice Spirit Heart Pendant when he advanced, but the exploded fragments were not wasted at all. They were picked up by Gru from the bottom of the pool and became a great supplement for his own strength.

Thanks to Gru's presence, Arthur and Aretha's journey to abandoned swamps was much smoother than others. Gru's thin body was not trapped in the mud at all. He was running around among the water plants and was also reconnaissing risks in advance for Arthur.

"We have been wandering around here for three days, and we haven't even seen the zombie flower we are looking for." Arthur couldn't help complaining.

"There are no maps or guides here. It depends on luck to find things in the abandoned swamp. If you are not lucky, you may not find them for thirty days."

"Then what is the zombie flower we are looking for? Can you really find it if you continue to search for it aimlessly?" Arthur even knew nothing about their mission goals.

"The zombie flower grows in a stinky place, but it is extremely gorgeous. You will recognize it at a glance when you see it. The pollen of this flower is highly toxic. Although it is not fatal to the skin, it will cause the skin on the surface and body to become rigid for a long time like a zombie."

"So the toxicity of this kind of flower is not too strong. Why do employers spend such a big price to find this thing?" Arthur asked in confusion.

Aretha suddenly laughed, "Zombie Flower has another nickname called Zhuyan Flower. Of course, you men don't know?"

"Stay the Flower?"

"The human magician used the characteristics of the zombie flower's stale skin and took trace amounts of pollen and other potions to prepare a magical drug called Jingyan Powder. Applying Jingyan Powder on the face and skin can freeze the face, making youth last for ten years. Therefore, it became a magical medicine that the noble lady of a wealthy family and noble family like a heron, and it was priceless."

Arthur was a little stunned when he heard this, "There is such a magical thing in the world!" Then he looked at Aretha up and down unconsciously, "Master's wife, have you also used the beauty powder?"

Aretha was happy, but she said angrily: "How could I use that kind of thing? How could I use that kind of thing? There is no magical thing in the world that can truly retain youth! The beauty powder also has side effects. The skin will age faster in ten years, and the youth retained by medicine will be returned soon. Even if it is used continuously for a maximum of three times, it can only be used, because this thing is highly toxic after all. After more than three times, not only the skin will become rigid, but the body will become rigid."

"Even if you can only keep your youth for thirty years at most, there are countless women who are willing to go crazy about it, right?"

Aretha sighed softly, "It's not because of you men. What women are really afraid of is not losing their youth, but because of aging, they are afraid of losing their men's love!"

Arthur, who had not experienced the years, could not fully understand the so-called love of a woman. He was stunned when suddenly Gru's rushing cry came from the front.

When there was a situation, Arthur and Aretha looked at each other and rushed forward quickly.
