Chapter 203 220 Frozen Swamp
There was nothing to say all night, and a group of people left the fort in the early morning of the next day. This incident did not disturb too many people, but Gerald and other good brothers sent them off. It was hard to separate, but they all knew in their hearts that if Shengxuan and the others didn't leave, trouble would come again. Gerald pulled Ortega, and Ortega was holding back his mouth so hard not to cry.

"Good brother, I'll take you here." Gerald took a few brothers to send Shengxuan down the fortress, and stopped after a few miles, "Well, Brother Gerald, after this I will trouble you with the matter." Of course, Shengxuan was referring to the matter that Gerald had to report to the military after they left, and it cannot be said that a team of mercenaries suddenly disappeared without any news.

"Don't worry, although I, Gerald, is a rough person and can't write any brilliant articles, this trivial matter is not a problem. I will take care of this matter, and you all take care of yourself." Gerald knew It was time to break up, and tears welled up in the circles of my eyes.

But at this moment, Ortega was already in tears, "You guys are still injured, just leave like this, I really...you must come back alive." As he said that, he was already crying, which made everyone feel sad. Feeling very sad, Gerrard couldn't help yelling at him, "Why are you crying? It's like mourning. Look at your cowardly look." But tears also flowed down his face.

Shengxuan and his party did not simply leave, but went to the frozen swamp. Although this was not mentioned, everyone had already guessed it. Alavi stepped forward and gave a deep salute to Shengxuan. It was inconvenient to be stopped by Alavi just when he turned sideways, "You don't have to be polite, the gift just now was to express your gratitude for teaching you skills. Although we can't treat each other as teachers, we will always be good brothers."

Then Alavi looked at the three Hodheke brothers, "We can't go with you. After all, the relationship between these clans is too delicate. I'm afraid it will cause more trouble if we go."

Shengxuan couldn't help but nodded, "Okay, all good brothers, come back, sooner or later, we will definitely come back in a year, when the time comes, we brothers will drink and gamble together."

"Okay." "Take care!" Seeing Shengxuan leading a team of less than 30 people towards the depths of the canyon, and gradually blending into the thick fog in the cold winter morning, Gerald and others reluctantly returned fortress.

Early in the morning, Shengxuan had already sent Weiner and Meier away, and told them to pay attention to safety. If Nagomos took someone to make trouble again, he would rather give up the Mithril Mine than fight with him, although Reg could It was a fluke to cut off one of his arms, but the price paid was quite heavy.

The frozen swamp has a radius of millions of kilometers. Due to the continuous melting of the snow on the mysterious snow mountain, a large amount of snow water flows into this place, turning the whole place into a large swamp. After countless thousands of years, the swamp has formed its unique The environment, from a distance, seems to be a dense forest, and the ground is even more green grass, but it is full of dangers everywhere.

After walking into it, you will find that the green eyes are not green grass, but a kind of moss. This kind of moss can be seen everywhere in the frozen swamp. After Mu Mu explained, everyone knew that there were mud puddles underneath. .

Once someone walks up as a grassland, they will immediately fall into it. The icy swamp below has a huge attraction. I am afraid that many saint-level powerhouses will not be able to escape, only the bad luck of being swallowed by the swamp.

And those tall trees in twos and threes are not as safe as they seem. There are many sharp poisonous thorns on them. Once they are accidentally stabbed, they will be poisoned and unconscious. More toxins are injected into the body, which eventually become nutrients for the growth of the tree.

There are no less than tens of thousands of such trees and poisonous vines, but these are not the most dangerous. The most dangerous are those monsters hidden in the large mud. After countless years of transformation, they have fully adapted to the environment here and can hide. They stayed motionless under the swamp for several months, and when the prey entered their range, they would suddenly pounce and devour a bison weighing several thousand kilograms in an instant, leaving not even the fur and blood left.

And this is just the danger that exists in the environment. In the frozen swamp, there are also some ups and downs. The environment there is much safer. There used to be a settlement of orcs, but now there is usually a Calais elite soldier stationed there. The Calais garrison is not so much a soldier as a bandit. Not only does it wantonly oppress the orcs in the area under its jurisdiction, but it also often pretends to be a bandit to rob the orcs and sell the young and strong ones as slaves.

Under the constant oppression and lure of the Calais, some of the original thousands of orcs have turned to Calais in exchange for the hope of their own group's survival, and the Calais' approach to them is to let They come to take care of those orcs who refuse to submit.

Originally from the same race, these orcs who surrendered turned to persecute the same race more cruelly, and often even killed some small groups.

Under the leadership of Mu Mu and other orcs, Shengxuan and his party quickly headed towards the frozen swamp. They only walked for two days for a distance of hundreds of miles. For such a team with injuries, this is already the limit of speed. .

But they didn't know that on the night they left the fort, several mysterious masters sneaked into the fort and kidnapped several sentries. Although one sentry was released later, he was also covered in wounds. , Gerald asked him who did it, the sentinel was too frightened to explain the situation, he just said repeatedly "I don't know, I really don't know where they went, they left early in the morning, It's like fleeing."

No need to ask anymore, Gerald already knew what the purpose of these people was, and he couldn't help but feel secretly afraid. Since the incident with the man in black, he has completely sealed off the fortress and tripled the number of guards at night, but He still couldn't stop those mysterious masters from coming in and out. From this, it can be seen that the cultivation base of these people may be several levels higher than his own. If Sheng Xuan and the others left a day later, they might not be able to escape their opponents.

After Shengxuan left, the Hodheck brothers, Alavi and others also left for refuge one after another. The only people who knew about it were regular soldiers like Gerald. I'm afraid this is also the reason why those people didn't do anything. It seems that they don't want to because At this time, we are torn apart from the principality. After all, this is the front line, and assassinating a general guarding the border will mean a declaration of war.

When Shengxuan took people to a high ground, they finally walked out of the canyon, and the frozen swamp was in front of them. Standing there, they couldn't help but look around, and saw the vast swamp that could not be seen at a glance, and on their right hand The place where the sky and the ground line, but it seems to be a vast plain.

"Where is what place?" Mu Mu followed Shengxuan's fingers, his face darkened, "Where is actually the hometown of orcs, called the Red Kangguna Plain, composed of the Red River, the Kangdo River, the Guges River and The great plain formed by the impact of the four great rivers of the Navara River. After the orcs were driven from this land into the swamp, it became an important grain-producing area in Calais, and the orcs were still working on this land, but They have gone from masters to slaves."

It was a humiliation, a sad song of blood and tears. Countless orcs were forced to abandon their homes and go to the frozen swamp full of dangers under the iron hoof of Calais. To produce food for people, in the end, it is just the chaff that barely survives.

Shengxuan didn't say anything, just waved his hand to Mu Mu, "Let's go, it seems that we will spend the night in this frozen swamp tonight."

Although the orcs such as Wood all the way had already talked about the situation in the swamp before, actually entering here still brought them a lot of trouble.

As soon as he entered the swamp wood, he asked everyone to stop. He took a few orcs to collect a lot of weeds, and then used these weeds to form bowls, and then tied them firmly to the horseshoes. These grasses are rich in oil. , so generally it will not bring up muddy water, but it greatly increases the area of ​​the horseshoe, making it easier for them to walk in the swamp.

When he got on the horse again, Mu Mu said to everyone, "You all follow my horse well, it's best not to deviate a single step, I will remind everyone when you get to a dangerous place, but you have to be careful."

Repeatedly reminded everyone many times, but within a few miles, something happened. A mercenary soldier let down his vigilance because he had walked so far and was fine. As a result, he stepped out with his horse and fell into a trap In the mud, fortunately he abandoned the horse in time, so he escaped unharmed, but the horse sank into the mud in a blink of an eye, and in the swamp, like boiling oil, countless bugs swarmed up, and in a blink of an eye, only the skeleton of the horse remained.

Seeing this horrifying scene, the group never dared to take a wrong step. In this way, under the leadership of the orc warriors, they walked in the frozen swamp for several days without any problems.

On this day, Mu Mu suddenly stopped everyone while he was walking, and then he led a soldier and quickly disappeared among the thick thorns nearby. The sharp spikes on it seemed to have no effect on them at all, looking at them Disappearing among the thorn bushes, several people hurriedly got off their horses to rest for a while, but no one dared to go far. Places that look like green grass are usually traps, but in this deep winter, the ice that looks solid is as thin as paper. The same thing, when stepped on, it immediately shattered, causing people to fall into the quagmire below.

After a while, Mu Mu came back with the soldier, looking very ugly, "What's wrong?" Sheng Xuan and the others couldn't help but asked hastily, "I thought the road we were taking was very remote, and we wouldn't meet him. Calais, but I didn’t expect that the team of Calais in front is,,,, is,,,,”

Mu Mu couldn't go on, the orc warrior next to him hurriedly said, "They were exercising their will, but they were resisted by this small group. As a result, many young orcs in the group who resisted were killed, and their bodies were hung in the village. on the trees."

Hearing this, Shengxuan couldn't help but think of the scene when he first met Mu Mu. What a bloody scene it was, and it is still deeply imprinted in his mind. He looked at Mu Mu and then at the orc warriors in the team. Seeing their faces There was extreme anger on his face, but this anger was suppressed by them desperately, and some people were still peeking at him.

"Bring the guy, let's go and have a look." After saying that, Shengxuan turned back and took an iron gun from the saddle. Now that it was destroyed and lost his dragon teeth, he could only use this ordinary iron gun.

Reg was obviously worried, so he couldn't help but said to him, "Chengxuan, you haven't recovered from your injury, I'd better take someone there, you and these brothers stay and watch the war horse."

Hearing this, Cheng Xuan couldn't help laughing, originally he wanted to tell Reg, but the latter said it first, "I think we should go together."
