Straight Knife

Because the Trial Swamp has been a paradise for adventurers and smugglers for many years, people have slowly explored a safe path at the end far away from the sea.

To say that this road is safe is relatively speaking. Compared with other normal trails, this road can be said to be close to death.But compared with the swamp near the sea, ordinary people still have the possibility of surviving on this road, but this little possibility, compared with the people who disappeared on that side, can already be said to be a difference between heaven and hell. difference.

The swamp on the sea side has been deserted for more than ten years.Pieces of aquatic plants and ponds are scattered everywhere, and there are no shadows of animals. The whole swamp is filled with a peaceful atmosphere.

If you only look at the scenery, this place must be a paradise far away from the hustle and bustle, with green forests and quiet water, anyone would like to live in such a paradise.

But no one can predict what dangers will be hidden under this quiet scenery.At least for now, no one can tell everyone that the last person who walked by has disappeared for more than ten years.

However, there are exceptions, or the only exceptions.

"哗啦" There was a sound of pushing away the branches, and a beautiful elf poked out her cute little head, and then, a white figure jumped out, it was Bai Xue.I looked around, smelled it for a while, and whimpered a few times, and the elf also jumped out, it was Linda.

Linda's light body slid across a small piece of water as if weightless, and probed the bottom of the water and the grass next to it with a long stick in her hand, before returning with Bai Xue.

There are several other people trekking in the forest, it is Wang Feng and his party.

Under the leadership of the middle-aged uncle, everyone made some simple preparations and entered the swamp.Everyone prepared well this time, so we mainly prepared some food in Kadu, and other materials can be obtained locally. Of course, we still brought our tents.

After entering the swamp, the middle-aged uncle began to explore cautiously step by step. Everyone had also heard that the trial swamp was powerful, so they followed the uncle and proceeded cautiously.Because the uncle's skill has been restrained for a long time, he didn't recover very well, so Linda was given the job of exploring the road.Wang Feng was afraid that Linda might make a mistake, so he asked Bai Xue to follow her.

The uncle's name is Tom, and he was a member of a famous mercenary group 20 years ago and the predecessor of today's Black Tiger Group.

Since the ban issued by the dragoons, their head and the heads of several other mercenary groups decided to go in and take a look.A small part because of curiosity, mostly because of greed.Because dragons like to collect jewels, will the dragons of the dragoons also have such a fine hobby?

Attracted by the unknown treasure, the elite of several mercenary regiments with a total of more than 400 people marched into the depths of the swamp.

Unexpectedly, what awaited them was one nightmare after another. More than 400 people were swallowed up by the swamp, and more than 100 people were wiped out by hidden monsters.After all these dangers, when they thought they arrived, more than 40 flying dragon knights suddenly appeared and completely shattered everyone's greed and curiosity.

Tom cleverly hid at the end from the beginning, and was not attracted by the treasure to rush forward blindly, so he lived the longest.Then the dragoons appeared, and Tom saw that the situation was not good, so he turned and ran away, but he was hit by a dragoon from a distance, fell into a bush, and escaped with his life.

Later, relying on her memory, she fled back to Kadu bit by bit when she was seriously injured.The injuries of the Dragoons could not be healed, and the original mercenary organization was controlled by a few villains because of the exhaustion of elites. It was renamed the Black Tiger Group, and slowly merged with several other mercenary groups, developing into its current scale.

And because Tom lost his skills, he had to linger in Kadu City until now.

After listening to Tom's story, Ruohan and Chuck expressed their disdain for Tom leaving his companion and fleeing alone. If it wasn't because he needed him to lead the way, Ruohan would have wanted to teach him a lesson.It was because of being persuaded outside by Snowla for a long time, and finally suppressed in the name of Wang Feng.

Maybe Ruohan's attitude also affected Tom, as if to atone for sin, Tom kept walking forward when he entered the swamp, without resting, as if he was in a hurry to meet up with his former companions.The team didn't stop until they were too tired to move forward.

Tom's caution about the swamp also made everyone depressed for a long time, but fortunately there was no danger.

What they didn't know was that shortly after they left Kadu City, a magical message was sent from a certain messenger, and someone in the distance had already received this message.

After resting for a while to let Tom recover, we moved on.

Everyone started to walk on the path that ordinary smugglers often take. It was not until a day later that they changed their route and turned to the middle of the swamp.

The road at this time was even more difficult. Although everyone remained vigilant, Wang Feng always felt a little abnormal.I don't know why, it seems that someone is always watching, but Wang Feng has enough eyesight and ears, but he caught it.

After walking for more than ten days, everyone hurried on their way with tense nerves every day.Along the way, many natural traps and quagmires were bypassed, and it was very hard for everyone, especially Linda who was exploring the way.

Wang Feng's feeling of uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger, and the feeling of being spied on always keeps him on high alert, but he hasn't found anything unusual.

High in the sky, on top of the clouds that are already hard to see with the naked eye, there are two flying dragons staying.There is a man in full body armor on each flying dragon.

One said to the other: "Are they the group of people who sent a message from Kadu saying they are looking for the Dragon Cave?"

"Yes, Captain, it's them. The wolf and the big man are easy to recognize, and there's an elf and a magician. They can't be wrong."

"What do you think of their strength?"

"It's hard to guess. According to the people in the city, the mage and the samurai are both elementary-level, and the others are all second-level adventurers, and the team is only second-level. But they killed the Black Tiger Group, including two 27 people including a high-level samurai and two mid-level magicians."

"Hmph, which senior magician would put down his airs to accompany that playboy, but they killed really well. If it weren't for the strict order from above not to allow us to make casual moves in these two cities, I would have killed that kid a long time ago."

"Captain, what do you think they are looking for for the Dragon Refinement Cave?".

"Who knows, but I really like these brats. They have courage. There are not many people in the world who still ignore the ban on dragoons. Just because of this, I like these brats."

Looking at the few people moving like ants below, the team members couldn't help asking: "Could they also be the ones coveting some dragon treasures?"

The captain said: "I don't know, let's wait and see. It seems that there is news in Jitan City that the people of the Black Tiger Regiment are mobilizing and want to seek revenge from them. Is there such a thing?"

"It seems that it was just passed on today. They have already entered the swamp. According to the distance, they will meet soon."

"Good opportunity, separate the members of the Black Tiger Group and bring them in front of them one by one, and see how they deal with it?"

"Ah! Captain, don't you hate the Black Tigers, why do you want to help them?"

"Help? If I'm not mistaken, these boys below can kill them for me and pull out these thorns in my side."

"Really? I don't believe it, captain, do you want to take a gamble?"

"Okay, whatever you want to bet on?" The captain looked confident.

The team members were stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and said, "Then how about betting on the captain's skill at betting the bottom of the box?"

"Yes." The captain said cheerfully.

I didn't expect the captain to be so straightforward, and the team members couldn't help reminding: "Captain, if I win, will you teach me your Dragon Kick?"

The captain smiled and said: "Okay, but if I win, you will be scolded by the elders, how about taking them to the headquarters?"

"Yeah!" Unexpectedly, it was the bet. The team members were stunned for a moment, but still couldn't bear the temptation of the captain's stunt, and gritted their teeth: "Okay, that's it, but you can't help them secretly."

"You don't need me to help them, you take a good look. The elf's movement skills when exploring the road, I believe it can be faster, plus the elves' natural arrow skills, hum, it's impressive. The magician walks like a light weight , it is said that half of the two high-level warriors and two magicians were killed by her with the wind blade. The wind blade, a small elementary wind magic, can kill a high-level warrior and an intermediate magician. You should be able to judge her strength How. If the big man is not mistaken, he should be a berserker. When he kills, he cuts the man with the weapon in half. The warrior with the knife is said to be the one who killed the most people that day and died in his hands. None of them were whole, they were all mutilated."

After a pause, he continued: "The dwarf and the black-haired one didn't make a move, but the dwarf seemed to be in the middle of the command. You can see that they echoed back and forth and cooperated. It looks like a small army. You and I have been in the army for many years. Should I can feel it. The black hair didn't make a move, and I can't see anything unusual now, but he is the captain of this adventure team, and it is said that the wolf is his pet, but he killed another magician and senior warrior. The one with the worst skills is probably the guide, it’s exciting to watch, haha.”

"Captain, where did they find the guide to find the Dragon Cave?"

After hesitating for a long time, the captain said, "I don't know either. According to the news from the city, after they dragged that playboy away for a long time, there was another person in the team. It should be found by that playboy."

While talking, a small feather next to the captain's helmet vibrated a few times, and there was a magical message. The captain listened for a while, and said to the other person: "The elders let us go back first, it seems that something happened at the headquarters. .”

"Then let's not look at the result of their encounter, Captain?"

"It's important to do things first, and then come back after finishing the work. Let's go!"

The two urged the flying dragon to fly into the distance.

The people underground didn't realize at all that they had become someone else's gambling tool, and they were still walking cautiously.

A few days of high tension is of great benefit to everyone's practice. At least when they meditate every day, they can feel the difference from the usual quiet time, and everyone can feel obvious progress.

It seems that the effect of growing up in battle is far better than in usual practice.No wonder it's called the Trial Swamp.Although there is no big battle, this kind of vigilance and battle-like atmosphere every day can temper a person's will.

Tom's skill is the weakest, and the high intensity for several days has made him overwhelmed and a little sluggish.On the other hand, although Ruohan and the others were exhausted, their spirits were better than the other.

Finally unable to bear it, Tom fell down again and had to rest for a while before he could go.Everyone had to stop.

Linda just returned at this time and said to Wang Feng, "Boss, something is wrong."

Everyone immediately alerted.Wang Feng said: "Speak carefully, what did you find?"

Linda hurriedly said: "These days we have been walking in places with trees and quagmire, but I just saw this small forest in front of me, and it turned out that it was all solid, a large area, very open, and there was no There are no ponds and no bushes, so I felt something was wrong, so I hurried back."

Wang Feng nodded and said, "Something is wrong, Snow, what do you think?"

Just as Snow was about to speak, the weary Tom interjected: "We've arrived here so soon, you must be careful, this area is an area where monsters infeste, and that area looks solid, but it's actually even more unpredictable. Many of us were swallowed by unknown monsters and swamps in this area."

Wang Feng asked: "Oh, what's going on with this piece of land?"

Tom said: "We didn't know. At that time, we thought that there was finally an open space. Everyone was tired for many days and needed a dry place to rest. A few runners rushed in. It was fine at the time, but later All of us went in, and there were people on guard during the break. After the break, there was nothing to do, and everyone relaxed. It happened that after walking through the quagmire for so many days, I felt happy to be on the ground. Nothing happened, so I walked forward boldly, but after walking for a while, the monster appeared."

As if recalling the horror scene at that time, Tom shivered: "A magical beast that has never been seen before suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and I was behind, only to see a big hole in front, and then we have dozens of brothers Disappeared in the cave. Then the monster and the cave disappeared, and the rest of the brothers called this place Hungry Dragon Beach. We can’t go here, we have to go around.”.

Wang Feng nodded, and gave Tom a burst of qi. Tom's spirit improved, and it took a while for Tom to recover.

Everyone listened to Tom's advice and walked in the other direction of the open space from the resting place, trying to bypass Hungry Dragon Beach.

Not long after they left, Linda, Wang Feng, and Aisha said at the same time: "No, there is a problem."

Everyone looked at each other and stopped.Cautiously squatting down, everyone gathered together.

Aisha first said: "Boss, there are some slight fluctuations in magic. I suspect it is a preventive barrier used to call the police. There are others here."

Linda also interjected: "Boss, I also found some traces of artificial cover-up. It seems that the arrangement was hastily completed not long ago."

Wang Feng nodded and said, "Everyone feels good. I heard voices. There were many and chaotic voices, but they all suppressed their voices, for fear that we would find out, as if they wanted to ambush us."

"Who are they?" broke in Tom.

"It may be the mercenary group of the playboy father. We killed his son, and he will definitely take revenge. Judging from the time, it is probably about the same."

"There are too many of them, so it's not appropriate to fight recklessly. Let's avoid it." Tom didn't want to lose his life at this time, so he made this suggestion.

Looking up, he found that there was a murderous smile in Wang Feng's eyes.

"We didn't look for him, but he came to our door. Just in time, we won't let anyone who dares to insult our wolf army go. If they want to blame him, they can blame his precious son for provoking the wrong person!" Wang Feng said. Said with a slight smile.

The other people were attracted by Wang Feng's high fighting spirit, and all of them were excited.

Although everyone is a militant, under the leadership of Wang Feng, there are no reckless elements here.

Wang Feng listened to those people's voices, and found that there were no special masters in them. It stands to reason that if the people of the Black Tiger Group want to take revenge, they shouldn't be so bad.After communicating with Snow, everyone agreed that there was a problem.

After sending Linda to investigate carefully, they roughly figured out the distribution of the enemies.

It is estimated that the Black Tiger Group dispatched a lot of people this time, at least Linda can observe and guess that there are more than 200 people.

This time the Black Tigers were very cunning, and they were divided into three groups.One group is dominated by archers, ambushing on the road that must pass now; the other group is mainly based on magic, lying in ambush near Hungry Dragon Beach; the last group is mainly warriors, ambush away from Hungry Dragon Beach The place.At first, what Wang Feng and the others found was the archer in the middle.

In this way, no matter which side finds the target, the other two ambush troops can quickly provide support.Archers and magicians are equipped with a small number of warriors to deal with enemies in close combat, and there are also a small number of archers and magicians in the warrior team.Whichever side meets the target, it can be held for a while, waiting for the other two sides to encircle.It seems that the enemy's team also has some talented soldiers.

To deal with the seven people on his side, the enemy actually put up such a big formation, it seems that they also attach great importance to Wang Feng and others.

Mainly, Wang Feng and the others were too showy in Kadu City this time.Not only dared to disregard the ban of the dragoons and forcibly break into the Dragon Cave, but only four people took action and wiped out Kunsha and other 27 people.This kind of strength makes the members of the Black Tiger Group fearless.

In addition, Wang Feng and his group's purpose is unclear this time, if they have a grudge with the Dragoons, then the Dragoons can get rid of these people for them.But if it is an accomplice, then it is estimated that the Black Tiger Group will never be able to take revenge in this life.

But the only son was killed, how could the head of the Black Tiger Regiment give up, how could he not swallow this breath.It is tolerable, which is unbearable.If you don't get back this face, then the Black Tigers won't have to hang out in Kadu and Jitan City in the future.

A staff officer gave the head of the regiment an idea. Anyway, they don't know the purpose of Wang Feng and others now, so take advantage of Wang Feng and others who haven't seen the dragoons and get rid of them first.

If they are enemies of the Dragoons, they can also take the opportunity to sell a favor to the Dragoons.If they are friends of the Dragoons, then kill them first, and then say that they don't know, and the Dragoons can't blame themselves.Anyway, after the incident happened, the Dragoons didn't declare to the outside world that these people belonged to them, so those who don't know are not guilty.

But when studying the strength of these people, it was a little troublesome.The four strongest people in the entire organization may not be able to fight 27 of them face to face.What's more, I have already received the news from Kadu City that the enemy has already got up and entered the trial swamp. If I don't do it again, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future.

The head of the Black Tiger Regiment gritted his teeth and fought hard. If he can't succeed this time, he doesn't have to think about it in the future.With a fit of ruthlessness, he pulled out all the people from the Jitan city headquarters and entered the trial swamp.

Although the Black Tiger Regiment is domineering in the two cities, they are still trembling when facing the trial swamp.Especially this time to go to the hinterland of the swamp that no one else has ever been to. There are also many experts in swamp activities in the Black Tiger Regiment, so they have always been careful.

But the head of Heihu was determined this time, and he must destroy them before Wang Feng and the others found the Dragon Refinement Cave.Thinking about the pain of bereavement, and ignoring other things, he desperately urged the team members to move forward.

In this way, the people in the regiment will suffer.After all, there are a large number of people, and if one cannot take care of them in the swamp, it will be a disaster.Along the way, more than a hundred low-level regiment members have been lost, causing complaints from below.

With a burst of resentment, after rushing into the center of the swamp, the leader of the Black Tiger found himself facing another crisis. Almost no one had passed through the center of the swamp, and the only living guide was also at Wang Feng's side. He and a bunch of swamps The expert wandered around inside. Although he didn't get lost, he was embarrassed to find that he couldn't find the whereabouts of Wang Feng and others.

If you can't even find anyone, then this time so many people were mobilized, so many died, and even the enemy's shadow was not seen, this time it will be a big embarrassment.Needless to say how many people can go back to this perilous swamp, even if they go back, losing such a big person, going through so many twists and turns, and killing so many people, failing to achieve their goal, the Black Tiger Group will be squeezed out by other organizations Two cities.

If they chase after, they don't even have a direction, who knows where the damned Wang Feng and the others are now?Some members even hoped that they would not meet Wang Feng and others.

It is related to the future survival plan. The Black Tiger Group has been dispatched in full force this time, and now it has become a bit difficult to ride the tiger.

Too many people died, causing some people to become dissatisfied and directly doubt the leader's leadership. If it weren't for the long-standing prestige, some people might start to make trouble.

At this embarrassing moment, an unknown person suddenly received a message from Wang Feng and others, telling them of Wang Feng's current location and the route he was walking.The members of the Black Tiger Group were overjoyed. After a simple analysis, they concluded that the news was true, so they mobilized their troops and began to slowly outflank it.

Because they were afraid of the strength of Wang Feng and others, everyone decided to use the method of ambush and sneak attack.

But marching in the swamp can't be said to be fast. Therefore, despite the hard work, I caught up to the front of Wang Feng and others, but because of the rush of time, there was no time to make a more careful deployment, so I hurriedly divided the team and hid Wake up, before seeing Wang Feng and the others, Wang Feng and the others had already discovered it first.
