Split personality

Xiaojie released another 'fireball technique'; everyone could see clearly, not only the front, but also a three-eyed toad on their left and right sides.

This time Arthur only hesitated for two seconds before giving another command to attack;

Kill the three-eyed toad in front of you as quickly as possible without disturbing the rest of your companions!

Not affecting other companions means that the three-eyed toad cannot make a sound, let alone step into its sensing range within ten meters.

Therefore, it is none other than the only Jay who has the ability to attack from a distance.

In addition to its dynamic vision, the three-eyed toad also has very keen hearing.However, they also have a characteristic or inertia. On the premise that they are not threatened or their companions are not summoned, as long as they don't step into its sensing range, even if they find your existence, they won't bother to talk to you.

Therefore, what Xiaojie has to do is not only to kill the three-eyed toad, but also not to let it make any noise, it is best to die unconsciously;

Water poisons like the three-eyed toad are very afraid of fire magic.However, Xiaojie, who is well aware of his habits, does the opposite, instead of using the fire-type attack that can counteract it, he chooses ice-type magic instead.

And it is also the most basic manipulation skill in ice magic.

The three-eyed toad has excellent dynamic vision and hearing. If it attacks rashly, it will inevitably be detected or even avoided.Therefore, this silent ice control technique has become the best choice.

Xiaojie is a master of both ice and fire, and is better at breaking through fire magic than ice magic.Even so, his ice control technique has reached the stage of perfection.The moment the 'Ice Controlling Technique' was cast, Su Mo obviously felt that the surrounding temperature was a little lower.

Although the ice control technique is more troublesome to perform, the effect is also remarkable. The 'boiling a frog in warm water' is also applicable to the three-eyed toad.When the water vapor around the three-eyed toad slowly condensed, and even a layer of ice slag condensed on its body, the ugly guy didn't feel the slightest bit, and still kept breathing with its mouth open.

In less than a minute, the three-eyed toad in front of him was completely frozen into a lump of ice—the crisis was over.

When passing by this 'ice lump', Arthur waved it and put it in his storage bag.

Seeing Su Mo's questioning gaze, Arthur laughed softly, "Although the three-eyed toad is highly poisonous, it is also an excellent medicinal material and very precious. The purpose of many adventure groups entering the wild swamp is to hunt it."

No matter the third eye of the three-eyed toad, or the serum secreted by toad skin, internal organs and even the surface layer of its skin, they are all rare medicine refining materials.

Although the purpose of Su Mo's trip is Hill's treasure, they don't want to miss such a 'treasure'.

As if he understood Su Mo's movements, Arthur smiled and continued, "If the employer is interested, we can catch a few more."

Su Mo didn't think it was embarrassing, and immediately nodded in agreement;

On the next road, whenever they encountered three-eyed toads, everyone did not choose to avoid them, but hunted them down one by one.Of course, most of them were killed by Xiao Jie.After all, hunting the three-eyed toad is not the goal, but passing through the swamp safely is the most important thing.

Seeing that the journey was halfway through and the destination was in sight, everyone including Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Jenny, who has been responsible for paving the road, has consumed a lot.Seeing that the finish line is about to be reached, and the number of three-eyed toads around has decreased a lot, the tense nerves will inevitably relax.

It didn't matter if they were slack, a three-eyed toad that had just surfaced from the mud surface appeared directly beside them!

"Oops!"

With Jenny's exclamation, a silver light and fire rushed towards the three-eyed toad at the same time!

The silver glow and the fire light came from Arthur and Xiaojie respectively. The two reacted unhappily, and their cooperation was quite tacit. The three-eyed toad didn't even have time to make a cry, and was overwhelmed by the attacks of the two.

Crisis resolved?

not at all!

The three-eyed toad that was attacked unexpectedly blew himself up at the last moment!

The three-eyed toad is half the size of a human, and its self-destruct power is extraordinary.Of course, this is not the point, the most important thing is that its self-detonation instantly attracted the attention of the surrounding companions!

At this moment, the three-eyed toads closest to the crowd uttered 'croaking' sounds one after another. While calling their companions, they rushed towards the crowd in unison!

"Damn it, it's too late to hide, let's rush over!"

Arthur gave a loud shout, immediately raised the knight sword, and swung it straight ahead!

All of a sudden, with the dazzling silver light, the low-lying swamp turned up monstrous mud waves, and all the three-eyed toads who approached them were swept away by the mud waves!

Arthur subconsciously wanted to grab Su Mo who was beside him, but while Su Mo dodged, he said coldly, "Your mission is to protect Nelson."

"Uh... well."

After being slightly taken aback, Arthur quickly grabbed Xiaojie on the other side, and shouted behind him, "Bian Long, Mr. Nelson is in your hands!"

"No problem, wrap it on me!"

The Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group cooperated skillfully, and even if they encountered unexpected accidents, they did not panic.At the same time that Arthur overturned the three-eyed toads around him, Jenny had already paved the way ahead, and rushed towards the opposite bank first.

Behind her was the silent ghost face, followed by Arthur and Xiaojie.

"careful!"

The exclamation came from Xiaojie on Arthur's back. Jenny, who was running at the front, only felt a tight ankle, and then staggered, and her body fell towards the swamp involuntarily!

At this time, the three-eyed toads who were overthrown by Arthur have gathered back. If Jenny is stuck in the mud at this moment, even the gods will not be able to save her!

At the critical moment, a playing card was shot from afar, and it cut off the tongue wrapped around Jenny's ankle with incomparable precision.At the same time, the panic-stricken Jenny only felt her waist tighten, and her body involuntarily rose into the air...

The person who shot the playing cards was Su Mo, and the one who shot to save Jenny in time was the silent ghost face.

Although Ghost Face rescued Jenny in time, due to inertia, the two had completely deviated from their original path, and there was still a muddy swamp under their feet!

Fortunately, Jenny's reaction was not slow, and she turned the swamp under her feet into a road in time, and finally did not fall into the mud.

Arthur knew that this was not the time to hesitate, and he was still carrying Xiaojie who needed more protection, so he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the opposite bank.

Not only Arthur, but the rest of the people also knew that at this moment they couldn't act emotionally, and while silently praying for Ghost Face and Jenny in their hearts, they all tried their best to run to the other side...

The same is true for Su Mo, he even rushed faster than Arthur, and there was no hesitation or worry on his face.If it wasn't for that crucial shot before, others would have thought that he didn't care about his companion's life or death at all.

In fact, Su Mo really didn't care;

Of course, not caring doesn't mean he won't save people, otherwise he wouldn't have fired that crucial shot just now.The reason why he didn't hesitate, and didn't even look at them, was because he believed in ghost faces.

Whether it's Ghost Face or him, he is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to sacrifice himself for his companions.On the contrary, if the critical moment comes, they will not only abandon their companions, but even fight for a chance of life for themselves at the expense of their companions.

Therefore, the moment Ghost Face chose to save Jenny, Su Mo knew that he was sure he could get away, so naturally there was no need to worry.

that's the truth;

Seeing that because of her mistake, Ghost Face also followed her into prison, Jenny, who felt so guilty, was about to apologize, but unexpectedly discovered that the three-eyed toads around turned a blind eye to them!

"Huh? This..."

"To shut up."

Jenny was about to speak when she was interrupted by Ghost Face's indifferent voice.

Still being hugged by the ghost face at the waist, Jenny subconsciously wanted to break free, but was stopped by the ghost face again.

"Stay still, pave the way."

It was only then that Jenny realized that the reason why the Three-Eyed Toad turned a blind eye to the two seemed to be related to the aura emanating from Ghost Face - the same kind of aura;

What skill is this?

Surprised in her heart, Jenny did not move slowly, and quickly followed the instructions of Ghost Face to re-pave the road.

Two quarters of an hour later, the two returned to the shore without incident;

"Thanks……"

The rescued Jenny just wanted to thank the ghost face, but they ignored her and walked towards Su Mo directly.

"Huh, that's great!"

Seeing that Jenny was safe and sound, the Vicious Tooth Mercenary Group breathed a sigh of relief, and Arthur said to Su Mo and Ghost Face with an apologetic expression, "I'm really sorry, it was our mistake... Also, thank you for saving Jenny."

The ghost face still ignored people, but Su Mo smiled and said, "We are in the same boat now, and it is right to help each other, so there is no need to be so polite."

Arthur nodded gratefully, and said, "Jenny suffered some minor injuries and needs to be dealt with. Don't worry, this is still the territory of the three-eyed toad, and no other poisons will come close."

Jenny is the hunter in charge of finding the way. Without her, it is difficult for everyone to move forward, which is why Ghost Face will save her.

It has been more than ten hours since entering the wild swamp, and the crowd has hardly stopped, and the consumption is not small.Especially Nelson and Xiaojie, who had the worst physical fitness, their faces were very ugly.Therefore, after discussing with Su Mo, Arthur decided to rest here for one night and set off the next day.

During the break, Su Mo glanced at Nelson, who was not very good-looking, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Nelson quickly understood what Su Mo meant, and after a moment of hesitation, he shook his head silently.

Seeing this, Su Mo frowned and said nothing.

Because of Jenny's injury, Shi Xingze, who was full of energy, took her place and took turns on duty with Arthur and Bian Long.

Maybe it's because they haven't left the Three-Eyed Toad's territory yet, they haven't been disturbed at all all night...

In the early morning of the second day, the energetic eight people set off again;

Yesterday's accident sounded the alarm for them, and everyone is more cautious today.Especially Jenny, even though her foot injury has not fully recovered, she still insists on exploring the way with guilt in her heart, and she is more cautious and careful than yesterday.

In the next few days, everyone went through many dangerous situations such as the blue flame rat and the flame scorpion, and finally arrived at the last section of the wild swamp in the early morning of the fourth day, the 200 kilometers agreed with the fierce tooth mercenary group There is less than half a day left.

It is worth mentioning that at this moment, it is not Jenny who is in charge of exploring the road, but Ghost Face; the commander is no longer Arthur, but Su Mo...

During the break, Su Mo found Nelson again and asked, "Is it still not sensed?"

Nelson nodded first, and then shook his head, "I can't sense the specific location, but... But inside, its call is stronger, it's inside!"

Nelson had excitement on his face, but more anxiety.

The thrills and excitement of the past few days have been frightening for Nelson.This kind of day when his nerves are tense all the time, and he will die if he is not careful, for him who has "no strength to restrain a chicken", life is simply worse than death.

If it wasn't for the great cause of restoration, and there was always a voice calling him from the depths of the swamp, Nelson might not be able to last a day in this kind of dreadful and trembling days.

It is true that as soon as he entered the wild swamp, Nelson felt a call from the soul; this call was inexplicable, but it made Nelson very excited, at least it strengthened his restless heart.

Although Su Mo repeatedly assured him that there must be treasures left by Hill in the wild swamp.Even though Su Mo had agreed to enter the wild swamp, Nelson was still full of doubts about the authenticity of the treasure.After all, he is not a player, and he cannot receive system prompts like Su Mo and the others.

When he felt the 'call', the excited Nelson couldn't wait to share this key information with Su Mo.Su Mo was also very surprised when he learned about it, and repeatedly asked him to find a way to sense the specific direction through summoning.

However, as they continued to go deeper, although this call had always existed, Nelson still couldn't sense the specific location.It was precisely because of this that he was so uneasy, and even repeatedly doubted whether the so-called induction was his own illusion.

Nelson was skeptical, but Su Mo didn't hesitate at all;

Although they have penetrated nearly 200 kilometers into the wilderness swamp right now, strictly counting it is still the periphery of the swamp.Hill walked through the wilderness swamp at the beginning, even if the treasure is not in the deepest part, at least it is in the middle and late stages.Therefore, even if Nelson still couldn't sense the exact location of the treasure, Su Mo was still not in a hurry.

More importantly, after so many days, Chu Han and others should also come...

Su Mo's guess was right, not only did Chu Han and the others come, they were even preparing to step into the wild swamp!

After the ramp was ambushed that day, Chu Han instantly changed from being protected to a terrifying existence that everyone could avoid;

At that time, in front of everyone, he made the great swordsman Marion into a "blooming skeleton", which not only scared away the assassins of the Dark Night Guild, but also scared away the players of Qing Yu and Chi Yan.

Even though Chu Han fell into a coma due to serious injuries, no one dared to approach him, whether Qingyu or Chiyan.If Pastor Busa hadn't come back 'in time', maybe Chu Han would really bleed to death.

After Pastor Busa came back, he also saw the shocking 'blooming skeleton' on the stone wall.But after the shock, he still performed healing techniques on Chu Han, and soon rescued the dying Uncle Chu.

Of course, whether Qingyu or Chiyan, it's not that they really don't want to save Chu Han, but that they really have no choice.

Before Chu Han fell into a coma, he directly released half of the undead guards who had been subdued in the claustrophobic hills, filling up the small ramp, and at the same time guarding himself in the middle.Even if Qingyu and Chiyan wanted to save someone, they didn't dare to act rashly, so they had to wait anxiously for Busa's return.

It is true that the undead guards were subdued by Chu Han, but they did not reject Pastor Busa.Busa is a priest of the undead. Although the undead healing technique is a bit eerie, the effect is not bad. Chu Han woke up the next day.

After waking up, Busa told Chu Han the agreement he had reached with Princess Saiyan, and Chu Han had no objection.Therefore, for this trip to the wild swamp, there are two more powerful assistants, Princess Ellie and Great Sword Master Huansi.

Although Princess Ellie didn't see the "work of art" created by Chu Han with her own eyes, after Huan Si described it, she was also taken aback by Chu Han's evil and abnormality.Therefore, even if the two parties reach a temporary cooperation, Princess Ellie's vigilance has not been lowered.

Princess Ellie is only on guard against Chu Han, while Huan Si, as a great swordsman, is terribly afraid of Chu Han.

Not only Huan Si?Even the players of the Qingyu and Chiyan mercenary groups were frightened by this terrifying 'His Royal Highness'.

Qingyu was better, no matter how scared she was, she never forgot her mission.But the members of the Chiyan mercenary group were not only wary of Chu Han, but also equated him with the most evil big boss, racking their brains to think how to get rid of him in the end!

What's even more bizarre is that Zhan Qingqing, who has no confidence in his own strength, directly pins all his hopes of getting rid of Chu Han on Su Mo!She has great information about Su Mo's IQ, and she repeatedly urged Su Mo to come up with a way to get rid of Boss Chu as soon as possible!

Su Mo, who was wandering in the wild swamp, felt ten thousand 'grass mud horses' galloping past when he received this message.

Even Ghost Face, who has always been silent, looks at him with strange eyes from time to time...

Not to mention how speechless Su Mo was, with the addition of Princess Ellie and Huan Si, great sword masters, the strength of Chu Han and his party soared again.Such a powerful team can be called luxurious, and it is no problem to run rampant in the Tianfa Continent, and it is not a problem to venture into the "mere" wilderness and swamp.

Therefore, when everyone arrived in Luobei City, they did not wait for a reliable mercenary group for several days like the four of Su Mo did.Busa casually found a small mercenary group with a good reputation and a good understanding of the wilderness and swamps, rested for a night, and set off the next day.

How luxurious is Chu Han's team?

Excluding the hired mercenary group, Busa and Princess Ellie are both the most powerful people standing at the top of the pyramid in the mainland, and Huan Si is also a powerful swordsman.Coupled with the three official players of Qing Yu and the two official players of Chi Yan, such a luxurious team is many times stronger than Su Mo and others.

Therefore, even if the experience of the hired mercenary group is not as famous as Vicious Fang, let alone their rich experience, the speed of this luxurious team is not slower than Su Mo and the others, and even faster!

The moment Chu Han and the others entered the wild swamp, Su Mo and the others received a message from Jing Pengtao.

At this moment, Su Mo and the others had arrived at the 200 km point where they had agreed with the Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group to end their employment.

According to previous calculations of the Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group, this is the limit of their penetration in this season.

In fact, the four members of the Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group negotiated before entering the wild swamp. No matter what reason Su Mo gave, they would not agree to go further.

However, what they didn't expect was that the strength shown by Su Mo and Ghost Mian was much stronger than they imagined.

Since Ghost Mian and Su Mo teamed up to rescue Jenny that day, neither of them has hidden their strength anymore. Ghost Mian even used his own life to kill the soul once.Although Su Mo didn't use 'Jiuyou', the two guns in his hand that could fire in different colors also left a deep impression on the Fierce Fangs.

Of course, strong strength is one aspect. What is even stronger is that Su Mo's accurate judgment and almost perfect deduction and prediction are far beyond ordinary people.

The Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group had a lot of experience, but these experiences were more applicable to the outskirts of the wild swamp. As they went deeper, their experience became less and less, and in the end they were completely useless.

Especially in this season, it was also the first time that Vicious Fang went deep into the wild swamp.In the last two days, because of Arthur's misjudgment, everyone completely deviated from the original planned route and had to explore unknown areas that had never been entered before.

At this time, the strength of Su Mo and Ghost Mian was truly revealed!

The first is the ghost face, who completely took over Jenny's exploration and guidance work.At first Jenny could barely keep up with Ghost Face, exchanging groping with him.But on the last day, in a completely unknown and unfamiliar area, Jenny could no longer keep up with Ghost Face's speed, so she had to retreat in order not to drag Ghost Face down.

Facing unknown areas, Ghost Face's exploration ability and progress speed can be described as horror, and members of the Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group have described him as abnormal more than once.

In addition to Ghost Face, Su Mo also completely took over Arthur's leadership.

In the face of unknown areas, how to choose routes and avoid risks depends on the experience accumulated in the past and judgment beyond ordinary people.

In terms of experience, Arthur undoubtedly has an absolute advantage. After all, he was originally from a mercenary regiment, and he has not gone deep into the wild swamp once or twice.However, when Su Mo demonstrated his strong judgment and coordination ability one after another, Arthur had to admit that Su Mo's deduction and judgment were several times stronger than his in the face of unknown areas.

Thanks to the outstanding performance of Su Mo and Ghost Mian, the group was able to reach the 200-kilometer boundary without any damage.

"It was my fault."

Arthur took the lead in reviewing, "I underestimated the horror of the wild swamp at this time of year. Without the two of you...hehe, let alone getting here, it is a question of whether we can survive."

As he said that, a wry smile appeared on Arthur's face, "Let's go here, we don't have the face to take the remaining half of the employment fee."

Su Mo and Ghost Mian not only saved Jenny's life, they also saved Xiaojie's life yesterday.They are obviously employed, but they need their employers to rescue them many times. How can they have the face to spend the rest of the employment fee!

More importantly, because of the relationship between Su Mo and Ghost Face, not only did all members of the Vicious Tooth Mercenary Group survive, but they also explored unknown areas that had never been explored before.These experiences alone are enough to cover the rest of the mercenary fee.

What's more, including Fierce Fang, several famous mercenary regiments in Robe City are also related to each other.This time Fierce Fang has explored more unknown areas, and can also exchange a lot of benefits from other mercenary groups.

Su Mo looked at the depressed look of the four members of the Fierce Tooth Mercenary Group, obviously he didn't want to go any further.This is naturally not good news for them.

Whether it's Su Mo or Ghost Face, no matter how eye-catching their performance is, it can't obliterate the shortcomings of the team's lack of strength.At this moment, if the four powerful teammates of Ji Ya are lost, the next journey will only be more difficult.

Is there any way to convince them to stay?

Su Mo glanced at Nelson, and when he saw the obvious excitement on Nelson's face, he raised his mouth and said immediately, "Aren't you curious why we choose this season to enter the wilderness swamp?"

"I'll tell you the reason now!"
