Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Chapter 604 Exploring the Black Swamp

Just as Song Zhipei was explaining the emergency mission to Lando, their communications rang at the same time.

From what Lando saw, it was a group conversation.

After connecting, there were ten people who received this emergency mission, plus a person dressed as a base instructor.

The instructor said: "I am the person who announced this urgent task. We will gather at the gate of the base in 5 minutes. If you have anything to say, we will talk about it on the way!"

After speaking, without waiting for everyone to respond, he hung up the communication directly.

On the way to the gate of the base, Lando asked, "Is this urgent mission issued by the instructor?"

Song Zhipei explained: "When we receive an emergency request for help, we will let the base instructor act as the team leader and lead some team members to support, so it is usually the team leader instructor who issues the task."

Song Zhilei said: "Some strange treasures will be born in this chaotic dimensional interlayer from time to time, and the resources are also quite rich, so the Human Alliance military has a lot of troops stationed here. Because of the special status of the elite training camp, high-end combat power There are many, basically every instructor is a strong person above the 'ageless' level!"

"So if some nearby monitoring points or strongholds encounter troubles that are difficult to solve, they will ask us for help!"

"It is worth mentioning that our base has a very high level of confidentiality. Except for the instructors and team members of the base, other personnel are forbidden to come here on weekdays. However, we are doing missions outside. If we can't return to the base in time, we can find the nearest surveillance point or stronghold for rest.”

The few people moved very quickly, and they arrived at the gate of the base after 2 minutes. At this time, there were already several people waiting here, and less than a minute later, ten team members arrived, and the instructor who issued the task also arrived at the same time .

The gate of the base opened, and everyone quickly filed out.

The instructor threw out a metal cube the size of a thumb. The light and shadow intertwined in the air, and when it landed, it had turned into a floating car with wild shapes.

The instructor waved for everyone to get on the bus, and he quickly sat in the driver's seat.

With one kick of the accelerator, it only takes 0.3 seconds to accelerate to [-] kilometers, and the speed is still soaring. The wild floating car disappears into the distance like a phantom.

At the same time, the protective cover and the gravity adjustment system were in effect, and Lando didn't even feel the slightest recoil.

Because the degree of chaos in the sky is higher than that on the ground, in most cases, the vehicle will only choose to fly at low altitude.

It wasn't until this time that the instructor relaxed a little. He set the automatic cruise of the floating car, turned around to look at the ten team members, and paused when he saw Lando.

"It seems that there are new faces, so let me introduce myself. My name is Wu Yimo. You can call me Instructor Wu. The subject I teach is strategic deployment. This time there is a riot in the Black Marsh, and the Black Marsh Surveillance Point is the first to bear the brunt. That is the goal of our rescue mission!"

Wu Yimo briefly explained the reason for the mission, and then said: "The monsters in the Black Swamp are generally not strong, but most of them are full of poison. You need to pay special attention to this! One of the monsters called the Black Swamp Snake has some difficult abilities. They can turn the land into a swamp and travel freely underground, and other black swamp monsters will also gain a geographical advantage!"

Then, Wu Yimo briefly described the types and weaknesses of monsters in the Lower Black Swamp.

Twenty minutes later, a surveillance point surrounded by monsters was marked on the virtual screen of the floating city, the most striking being the 10-meter-high tower at the surveillance point.

Wu Yimo said: "There are still 2 minutes, get ready, we need to break out to the monitoring point, join the guards there, and use the fortifications of the monitoring point to deal with the continuous stream of monsters."

"Boom!~"

The wild floating car directly smashed through the obstacles of many monsters, but facing the dense crowd of monsters ahead, Wu Yimo had no intention of using it to forcefully charge.

The measurement of the floating car suddenly turned into light and disappeared, and 11 people were ejected directly. Wu Yimo stretched out his hand in midair, and the floating car turned into a metal cube and fell into his hand again.

Lando followed the witch instructor and rushed towards the Black Swamp surveillance point.

At this time, Instructor Wu was already wearing a heavy mecha, with two pairs of feathers protruding from the back of the mecha, and the feathers fell off one by one, which were obviously small floating cannons.

These floating cannons wandered around the witch instructor, unleashing dense and precise firepower, killing all the monsters that surrounded them with one blow.

Most of the pressure was borne by the witch instructor, and what the ten team members had to do was relatively easy.

The Black Swamp monitoring point also seemed to have discovered the people who came to the rescue, and poured more firepower in their direction, which also shared a lot of pressure for them.

It only took a few minutes for the 11 people to break through the monster's blockade and come to the interior of the black swamp monitoring point.

Because the protective cover has the function of identifying friend and foe, there will be no oolong incidents such as letting monsters in after opening the door.

After entering the surveillance point, the scene was not as panicky as Lando imagined, but rather orderly, with everyone performing their duties, as if they had long been familiar with it.

"Haha! Old witch, you are here! The speed is really fast enough!"

A rough voice suddenly sounded, and Lando followed the voice, and saw a strong man in military uniform approaching with a smile on his face, and he was about to give Wu Yimo a big hug with his open arms.

The corner of Wu Yimo's mouth twitched, and he immediately stretched out his hand to block it, and asked, "Old Zhu, what's the situation now?"

The officer known as Lao Zhu didn't take it seriously, and said casually: "What else, the Black Swamp riot, it's not just once or twice! But this time the scale is bigger than before!"

Wu Yimo frowned, obviously not very satisfied with what Lao Zhu said.

This is an officer named Lao Zhu who looked at Lando and the others, and said with a smile: "My name is Zhu Hanguang, and I am the station master of this surveillance point. Thank you for coming to the rescue. , I will give each person an extra Black Swamp Mushroom!"

Although there are not many black swamp mushrooms, the extra benefits made the team members feel happier.

Lando asked, "What's the use of this Black Swamp mushroom?"

Song Zhipei explained: "The Black Marsh mushroom is a specialty of the Black Marsh. After being prepared at the base, it can be made into a potion for strengthening the body. The effect is quite good!"

Next, under the command of Wu Yimo and Zhu Hanguang, everyone joined in the defense.

It was only when Lando realized that although the external monsters attacked ferociously, facing the monitoring point, it was like waves crashing on a reef, and it was useless.

Even without ten of them joining, the monitoring point should be able to handle it.

Lando secretly speculated that they should be here to make up the numbers, and normally Wu Yimo was only needed to come, as a precautionary measure would be enough.

Of course, it can't be said that they are useless when they come, they can replace the soldiers at the monitoring point, so that everyone can get more rest time!
You must know that in high-intensity defensive battles, maintaining physical strength is very important!
The battle lasted for a whole day and night. During this period, an unknown number of monsters directly crossed the monitoring point and entered the wilderness area in the distance.

When the monsters stopped coming out of the black swamp, the two brothers of the Song family sat down on the ground, obviously very tired, and many other people did the same.

Wu Yimo and Zhu Hanguang walked over, and the latter said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, little guys, you have completed all the tasks, but it seems that some people need to strengthen their exercises, and they are so tired all day and night. Get some strength, if you meet those Phantom Clan girls, don’t you just confess?!”

Wu Yimo recovered from his deep thoughts, and said to Zhu Hanguang: "The scale of the monster riot in the Black Swamp this time is too large, and it's a bit abnormal. I'm going to investigate it."

Hearing Wu Yimo start to talk about serious business, Zhu Hanguang put away his teasing intentions and seriously told him, "Be careful, and return quickly if you encounter any emergency!"

Wu Yimo nodded slightly. As old comrades-in-arms, there was no need to say too much in the communication between them.

Just when Wu Yimo was about to leave, he saw Lando standing calmly there. Even though the latter had just experienced a day and night of defensive battle, he didn't look tired at all.

After a little hesitation, Wu Yimo walked up to Lando and asked, "Would you like to explore the Black Swamp with me? This is an A-level task, and the task reward is 10000 merit points, or an A-level treasure from No. [-] Vault. "

Before Lando responded, some team members immediately shouted: "Instructor Wu, I am willing to go!"

"Me too! Instructor Wu, I am willing to go too!"

"The witch instructor..."

Wu Yimo waved his hand and said, "Lando is qualified to accept this mission. You have completed the mission. You can choose to return to the base, or you can take you back with me when I come back!"

The crowd suddenly fell silent, and many looked at Lando full of scrutiny and dissatisfaction, because Lando did not show anything special during the guard battle.

Wu Yimo looked at Lando, waiting for the latter's reply.

Lando didn't keep Wu Yimo waiting, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I'll accept this mission!"

Wu Yimo nodded and said, "Very well, there is no need to delay, let's set off now."

The two left the monitoring point and quickly headed towards the interior of the Black Swamp.

The two brothers of the Song family looked at each other and went straight to find a place to rest.

What, return to elite training camp?
At this time, the monsters that filled the Black Swamp along the way must be full of dangers, not to mention that they have just been through the battle, and they are already exhausted!
It's safer to wait for the witch instructor to return and go back together!
Lando and Wu Yimo walked quickly through the Black Swamp, because both of them were floating in the air, and the terrain here had no effect on them.

Although a large number of monsters have rushed out of the black swamp, there are still many remaining monsters here, so while moving forward, they also need to deal with the monsters that suddenly appeared in the swamp!

Poisonous bees, poisonous mosquitoes, poisonous frogs, poisonous snakes...

Especially poisonous bees and mosquitoes are the most annoying!
Not only are there a large group of them when they come out, but there is no pure crystallization!

When they encounter monsters, they basically avoid them if they can, and if they cannot avoid them, they quickly destroy them and leave quickly!

A noisy battle will attract more swamp monsters, and being entangled is not a good choice.

Suddenly Lando's heart moved and he sensed something.

Just when he was thinking about how to tell this information to Instructor Wu, the latter stopped, as if he was sensing something carefully.

After a while, he quickly moved in a certain direction and said, "Quick, come with me!"

Lando smiled and followed closely behind.

After traveling quickly for about ten minutes, as they moved forward, the monsters they encountered became more and more sparse, which also made their speed a lot faster.

The reason for this situation is because there is a chaotic and irritable coercion shrouded in this area!
When Lando and Wu Yimo arrived at their destination, they saw the source of that coercion...

A... multi-headed monster constantly churning in the black mud!

This multi-headed monster seems to be composed of dozens of different monsters. The main body should be some kind of snake, with more than a dozen heads extending from its body. Each head looks like a monster, weird and ugly!

Among them, a snake head, a toad head, and a head resembling some kind of crustacean creature are the most powerful, and they all possess the aura above the level of 'immortality'.

They seem to have their own consciousness, and they are fighting for dominance. In addition, the other heads seem to be unwilling to be swallowed and controlled, and they are constantly struggling and resisting in the cracks, which makes the monsters burst out with chaotic and powerful coercion!

Lando wondered, could this be the reason for those Black Swamp monsters to escape?

Wu Yimo looked at it for a moment, and said, "This monster cannot be successfully fused. If a monster is too powerful in the Black Marsh, it will not be a good thing for your future experience!"

Lando nodded slightly.

If there were only a few weaker monsters in the Black Swamp, the team members above the [-]th floor of the battle tower would be relatively safe to come.

But if a powerful 'immortality' level monster appears, even if the probability of encountering it is low, it will die if it cannot stand it!

Lando asked: "Then what should we do now?"

Wu Yimo said indifferently: "Wait!"

"Wait?" Lando asked suspiciously, "Wait for what?"

Wu Yimo explained: "It is a common behavior for monsters to increase their strength through fusion, but the success rate of this behavior is not even 10%. You just need to wait for it to fail!"

"Shooting rashly will make those chaotic monster consciousnesses feel the crisis is coming, thus increasing the probability of their successful fusion, and it may be self-defeating!"

Lando asked: "Then what if it grasps the 10% probability and succeeds?"

Wu Yimo suddenly laughed and said, "That's better. After the monster is successfully fused, its strength will be greatly reduced for a period of time, but the pure crystals in its body will greatly increase in both quality and quantity. When the time comes, we will share the harvest equally!"

"Equally divided?"

Lando blinked, a little puzzled, why the instructor of the dignified training camp had to share the harvest with him as a team member.

Wu Yimo laughed and said, "Tao Zhiquan and I were comrades-in-arms back then, but he was stronger than me, and he was valued by General Yang Hongyi!"

Lando suddenly realized that it turned out to be 'one of his own'!
