Somewhere in the distance, on top of an old tree growing away from the rest of the plants, a fairly thin youth was sitting on a branch. His eyes widened, as he could not believe what he had just witnessed in the middle of the swamp.
His teeth began to grow involuntarily. It took some time before he could gather his thoughts. He even stared at the ground beneath him, which was overgrown with weeds!
After taking a close look, Zhang Xiaohou was sure that it would not rise all of a sudden. Half of his shirt was drenched in cold sweat.
What's wrong with this place!
Zhang Xiaohou was really frightened. He planned to track down the bodies, but given that he would not be able to move freely in the valley, he decided to tail the group of hunters while keeping a certain distance from them.
To his surprise, the entire group perished within a few blinks of an eye!
The hunters, consisting of Intermediate-ranked Magicians, were considered an elite group, but had just been annihilated easily!
Not knowing whether he should feel lucky or pessimistic, Zhang Xiaohou somehow lost his way. The valley was more terrifying than he had imagined. The large creature in the middle of the swamp must have surpassed the level of a Warrior.
Should he leave the valley immediately, or!
Shit, how could he leave before finding the person he was looking for!
He would only avoid going to the center of the swamp by any means! The giant beast would most likely stay in its area due to its incredible size!
Clenching his teeth, Zhang Xiaohou immediately left the area. The further he is from the swamp, the better!
“Fuck me, are you serious now? Giant Lizards back to their nest at this time?” Just as Zhang Xiaohou was about to leave, he saw the Giant Lizard, which was supposed to be gathering on the west side of the mountain, instead walking towards him.
A group of animals seemed to be taking a walk after enjoying a satisfying bath, and were on their way back to their nest to call it a day. That was really bad news for Zhang Xiaohou, as she happened to be close to their lair.
In fact, the valley is usually empty for two to three hours, as the Giant Lizard will gather to the west of the mountain. They will appear on time like housewives who come to the dance party held in the square { Note: yes, this is something in China} , live their quality life.
The Hunter Group had planned to complete their work within these two to three hours. Regardless of whether they succeeded or not, they would leave as soon as time ran out, and would continue the operation the next day.
Unfortunately, none of them thought that there would be a huge ferocious beast hiding in the middle of the swamp!
Zhang Xiaohou was less fortunate to meet the housewife ..err, the Giant Lizard when they returned to their nest. He knew nothing about the routine of the Giant Lizard. He assumed they would stay on the west side of the mountain until noon.
Seeing more Giant Lizards crawling towards him, Zhang Xiaohou felt her scalp numb. He immediately used all of his abilities to escape for his life.
......................
The swamp south of the valley was poisonous. Not only the poison can spread quickly, the gaseous substance can also penetrate the skin of living things.
The creatures living in the swamp were completely immune to poison, while outsiders who entered without permission in this area would most likely end up like countless corpses at the bottom of the swamp.
“You still haven't been cleared of poison. Why are you following me?” Mo Fan fell silent, glancing at the stubborn woman.
"Of course, if not, I will die now," Mo Fan replied.
"We have to find the group of hunters as soon as possible, then try to find the Wind Witch" Li Man said.
“If they carry out their plans tonight, they are most likely dead by now. As for the man you mentioned who was hiding in the darkness, to find him in a huge valley .. "Mo Fan lowered his body to cross the wall sticking out above him. He stopped his sentence as soon as he got to the other side.
Li Man followed behind and lowered his body to pass through the gap under the wall. He took over Mo Fan's sentence, "He should have been nearby .. Err …"
Mo Fan stared blankly ahead at the swamp area. He saw a large group of Giant Lizards chasing a skinny young man who was running in front of a ferocious beast.
The young man seemed to be unaware of the crack under the mountain wall. He has stumbled into a dead end. His eyes flickered with a strong determination.
"Basan jerk, your Grandpa Hou will definitely beat you all out!" Knowing there was nowhere left to run, Zhang Xiaohou took a deep breath and prepared herself for a long fight with the Giant Lizard until noon.
There were at least seventy Giant Lizards chasing after him. They were significantly larger than ordinary Servant-class demonic beasts. Their only drawback is their slow speed of movement. They tried their best to catch up, even though it was only a hundred meters away. Their grinding teeth can't wait to tear up the seafood. Well, swamps are their habitat, so humans living on the coast are considered their seafood.
"Is he the one you're talking about?" Mo Fan tried to take a closer look at that person, but all he could see was a shadowy figure.
Li Man nodded after also glancing. "The most liked."
Li Man was deep in thought. He assumed that they would need time to find that person. To their surprise, they somehow bumped into him as soon as they got closer to the valley. That's too coincidental.
“Hey, I don't want to fuss with them! There is a way here, let's hurry!” Mo Fan waved at the idiot youth from the crack under the mountain wall.
Zhang Xiaohou turned around and saw a wild-looking man and a mysterious woman who were with the previous group of hunters.
“Oh, come!” Zhang Xiaohou crawled towards the crack under the wall.
The Giant Lizard was unable to pass through the gap, so they gave up on the chase.
The three of them continued to move in the pitch-black darkness. Zhang Xiaohou was the first to break the silence, "Thank you for saving my life."
“Don't worry, we also have something to discuss with you! Speaking of which, friend, your voice sounds familiar!” Mo Fan replied in the darkness.
"Surprisingly, your voice also sounds familiar to me!"
The two of them had just come out of the darkness as they spoke. Four eyes stared at each other as the moonlight shone on their faces.
The breeze caressed their faces. A crow somewhere on the mountain made a strange sound!
"Damn it, Xiao Hou?"
"Brother Fan!"
