Chapter 345: Outside the swamp

After passing Eveli City, the route of the two people was far away from the sea. This also means that the enemy of the deep sea is temporarily unable to launch a surprise attack on the two. After all, monsters on land and sea beasts are also considered hostile, and it is normal to meet and fight.
The journey after that was fairly smooth, most of the monsters on the land have their own active areas. Even if the two provoke an unmatched opponent, they can still rely on Yu Shuang's plant magic and Yu Tu's flying ability to escape.
A few days later, the two rushed to the Dark Swamp as planned.
Although the Dark Swamp sounds darker, the surrounding scenery is more beautiful than expected.
The swamp is more like the edge of the forest, the trees are not so dense, there are a lot of weeds and pools. In fact, there is not much danger in the periphery of the Dark Swamp, and even the terrifying quagmire is not as deadly as it is. Many NPCs can be seen looking for materials in the swamp. Of course, there are still many players.
According to the map provided by Grimm, there is a third-level main city near the Dark Swamp. Almost immediately adjacent to the Dark Swamp. After the new map was opened, this place became one of the players' favorite areas in that city. Even if the secondary main city is opened, these players can rely on the city teleportation array to move quickly.
In the beginning, Yu Tu also wanted to use this method, but the main city did not appear in their map records and could not be teleported. I regret to choose to travel on foot.
However, you can use it when you go back. The two found a team of scattered players and spent two gold coins to buy information about the city. Considering that they will go deep into the swamp later, the two decided to enter the city first to bind information. After all, in the event of an accident, the two might directly pass back to Lanfrak City, which would have wasted a lot of time.
After entering the city and replenishing food and potions, the two were lucky enough to trigger a regional mission and hire an NPC as a tour guide.
Don't underestimate such small tasks without substantial rewards. Those NPCs that are found because of the mission guide are very difficult to find with special features. Just like this human tour guide called Mayu. As a tour guide, he can easily avoid various traps and dangers on the designated map, and he will not be lost, and he can change the destination information at any time.
Of course, this orientation is certainly not free. The price of Mayu is one gold coin per day. If you wait at a specific location, it costs two gold coins a day.
Although expensive, Yu Tu believes that Mayu has this value. Because the designated area of ​​Mayu, in addition to the periphery of the Dark Swamp, also contains almost half of the middle zone. With his help, the two can save a lot of time.
After Mayu prepared her things, the three embarked on the journey.
On the way, Mayu kept talking about the dark swamp, very talkative. Similarly, let Yu Tu know that he is not the kind of puppet-like fabricator, but one of the aborigines. According to Mayu’s narration, his family members are either adventurers or explorers (treasure diggers, similar to tomb raiders, appear in various ruins and are not considered illegal occupations.)
If he is not a fabricator, then his family members may actually exist. Such people, if taught well, can get a lot of help when exploring the map later.
After entering the swamp, Mayu was a little wary, but overall he was still relaxed.
As they walked, they talked about some tips to Yu Tu.
"In the dark swamp, stay away from dense grass and that kind of trees as much as possible. Over-dense grass is basically a nest of snakes, beasts, and they usually live in groups. When they are not very dangerous, they just provoke one. You are equivalent to offending all these monsters in the swamp. They seem to have a special way to hold their enemies."
"Then this kind of tree, the mind tree. They can exude a charming fragrance and have a hallucinogenic effect. This cannot be avoided. You can only be careful not to enter its range. Once you are fascinated, there will be a group of and mind tree. The companion lizard monsters come out to tear up the prey. These are the two areas that need to be paid the most attention to. The others are fairly simple and there is no big problem."
Yu Tu nodded and carefully avoided the area Mayu said. Although the information obtained has always stated that the periphery of the Dark Swamp is very safe, people who are safe enough to have no power can move freely inside.
However, the two have always maintained the necessary vigilance in unfamiliar areas. No matter what the information is, it is outdated. Do not know when it will lose its effect. It would be a fool's behavior to walk with an outing mentality in such a dangerous area.
After walking for a while, the two noticed that there were not many players in the Dark Swamp. But because of the distribution of swamp monsters, they are not as concentrated as their normal leveling points. Moreover, the expressions of those players are very solemn, and they look around from time to time as if they are looking for something.
Yu Tu asked: "Mayu, is there anything special in the Dark Swamp?"
"What kind of type are you talking about? To be honest, I feel that there are many things that can be called special in the Dark Swamp."
"It's the kind of relatively rare thing with important value. It should be a plant or monster that can move."
Mayu thought for a while, and said, "What you said this way, it should be that thing. In the end, you are also heavenly descendants, and it is normal to be interested in that."
Yu Shuang asked curiously: "What is it, don't buy Guanzi."
Mayu nodded and said, "It's a water spirit deer. It can be regarded as a legend in the dark swamp. It is a very beautiful creature, only heard in the legends of the older generation."
Yu Tu said: "Listen to what you mean, many people who have fallen from the sky know this."
"Ah, it seems that a skyfaller saw a beautiful deer-shaped beast before, and then ran to the city to find people asking what it was. Then someone said it might be a water spirit deer. Then, the news was It spread throughout the city. Others laughed when they heard it, but those who had fallen from the sky ran into the swamp one by one, looking for the water deer. Hey, I don’t know what you think."
"Is that water spirit deer very powerful?"
"I don't know, I heard that it seems to be a messenger of a god. Who knows, we haven't seen it. I don't know if this thing is."
Yu Shuang smiled and said, "Maybe, it's lying at your feet, but you didn't notice it."
"There is no such coincidence. It is just a fairy tale."
Mayu hit haha, turned her head, and met a pair of clear eyes.
Mayu was stunned for a second, and then shouted: "Shui Linglu! There really is!"
Mayu's voice was loud, at least, all the players in Yu Tu's vision raised their heads. The originally quiet swamp immediately became lively.
