Chapter 1693: Swamp monster

[Thanks to Su, Brother Xiang, Aidsu, Fat Dudu and other brothers in the war for their rewards and monthly tickets! ]
The night is deep and the light is dim.
After leaving the camp, Alan continued deepening along the signs left by the scouts, leaning against the foot of the mountain on one side, and dense jungle on the other. Gradually, the flames of the camp were invisible, and the human voices were also inaudible. Solitude envelops the mountains and forests, and also surrounds Allen. The humidity of the air began to rise, and the oncoming wind carried a faint smell of rotting forest leaves. There is some faint light in the forest, which is emitted from some luminous plants. These plants emit dim light at night to attract animals. Attracted animals will gnaw on them, and they will drop seeds on the animal's fur and spread to the whole mountain forest through the walking of the animals. The cycle of life and death is so wonderfully passed down, and sometimes the beasts attracted by the glimmer are dangerous. So after Allen left the camp for nearly a kilometer, a huge black bear stopped him. Black bears are different from their compatriots on Earth. They are even taller on the heaven star. This black bear stands almost four meters high, and its head, chest and shoulder blades are embedded with blood-red crystals to provide this black bear with terrible things. power.
Alan had no time to entangle the black bear, letting out a breath. The black bear was frightened immediately and turned around and ran away.
Gradually, the scouts left fewer signs. It was five hundred meters away from the last sign, but Allen had not discovered the new sign. Fortunately, it didn't take long before he saw an arrow drawn with a sharp tool such as a dagger under a tree. From here, the ground became softer and softer, and he was obviously close to Zedi. Rodek said earlier that there was no land here. Since the big tunnel project was disrupted by hellworms, some bugs dug to the exit of the tunnel. But those bugs didn't like wet soil, so they went back to the dry ground in the belly of the mountain. In the place dug out by the insects, there was a groundwater flow in the Lishan first connected, so the running water was poured in, mixed with the soil and rotting leaves, and many animals stumbled, died, and rotted here. Over time, swamps began to form here. Although this is not exactly the same as Zedi in the strict sense, the same is that there are traps everywhere, so it is necessary to scout to explore the way.
Rodek sent a first-level scout, a total of ten people, but currently none of them have returned to the camp.
Approaching Zedi, Allen could feel a dangerous smell in the air. Especially deep in Zedi, he felt a faint breath. That is obviously not the breath of human beings, but some kind of creature. Although it was not obvious, when the Qi machine touched, the vague breath quickly shrank to the depths. Allen frowned, and he picked up a piece of dead wood. When the line of sight fell, blue smoke rose from the dead wood, and then a flame lit up at the front end, which became a simple torch.
Alan held the torch and went deep, under the firelight, in those shadows in the forest. From time to time, something was watching Alan, and then they quickly retracted into the shadows. The fire light shone less than three meters around Alan. It should have been able to shine further, but there seemed to be something in the air that was catching the light transmission. Not only that, Allen vaguely felt a certain force field, which would disturb human perception. It's because of his keen sense that it is really difficult to detect it. This is a bit like the force field under Alice in Agareth's legacy. But it was far worse than Alice's force field. Allen has an intuition, it's like a spider's web. This force field is probably placed by the owner of the dark energy in the depths of the land, and the purpose is naturally to capture the prey.
After walking another kilometer or so, Allen stopped. Under a tree in front lay a man, a scout sent by Rodke. When Allen didn't know whether he was dead or alive, the man raised his head and looked in the direction of the fire, turning out he was not dead yet. Allen hurried over, knelt down and asked: "How are you?"
This person was covered with mud and leaves, as if he had just come out of a swamp. In fact, the ground here is already very soft, and one foot is like stepping on cotton. The man said with difficulty: "My lord, there is..."
When the words ended, suddenly the whole person flew up, and then flew back. Alan snorted, he felt a very faint breath wrapped around that person. At the moment, he stretched out his hand and caught a flame in the flame. Alan popped out a flame, a little spark drifted away, but it continued to grow in the air, and finally turned into a fist-sized golden fireball. The fireball chased the man away, and under the fire light, something could be seen coming out of the scout's belly, which was actually a tentacled piece. The fireball blasted on the tentacles, and the flame ignited the entire tentacles like kerosene. The tentacles immediately retracted, and the scout fell to the ground with a plop, his eyes wide open and dead.
Alan's eyes were cold, and he leaned forward, constantly lighting the ground and moving forward. The tentacles were still carrying flames, and they quickly retracted all the way to sprinkle sparks. Allen chased after the trace that couldn't be clearer, and went deep into the ground in a flash. The tentacles slid down suddenly, and there was a sound of water, which was already a swamp area. Allen landed on a broken tree, holding the hilt lightly with one hand, his eyes wink. The purely induced mental power turned into a sharp blade and plunged into the Zedi. After a while, a series of low noises rang out from the Zedi, and then the Zedi began to bubble up like boiling water.
After a while, a large mud well blew out, splashing muddy water and rotten leaves all around. Alan stretched out his hand and waved, and the dirt that had splashed at him bounced back like it had hit an invisible wall. There was a muddy rain on Zedi. In the muddy rain, something emerged from the swamp~EbookFREE.me~ This monster has a huge head, like an octopus, but with a human face. He looked like a forty or fifty-year-old man, rolling two huge but pupilless eyes, his mouth wide open, and inside were two rows of yellow teeth dripping with sewage. From under the head, a circle of dancing feet appeared, touching the feet up in the air, and there were faces at the bottom. There are men and women, old and young.
Allen threw the torch away. Not only did the torch fall on the ground, it was not extinguished, but a huge fire rose up, illuminating the monster more clearly. You can see a bunch of tentacles floating on the monster's head, just like a person's hair; and the face under the feet is not known whether it has changed because of the light, as if everyone is staring at Alan. Look. At this time, several corpses gradually floated on the ground near the monster, all of which were scouts sent by Rodek. The corpse had decomposed, and I didn't know what it had experienced, and then the monster began to flap and touch its feet, seeming to intimidate Alan.
Allen sneered, and the big sword was unsheathed, and there was a hiss in the air.
Sword spirit is overflowing!
As if frightened, the monster stepped back, and then opened a strange whistle from the man-like face. Several tentacles danced for a while, and then smashed towards Alan with a hood.
The wind howled.
