Chapter 55 Frogman and Encounter Classmates
took his subordinates around the mouth of the big river, Lin Xiao finally decided to put his new home on the north bank of the big river about one mile in the past, facing the black water swamp on the south bank of the big river.
According to the map shared by the artifact platform, a little bit down from the mouth of this big river, and about 40 kilometers east of the sea, there is a large mermaid city, which is also the core area of the mermaid empire ruled by the nearby sea.
Needless to say, there are frogmen, snakemen and murlocs in the Blackwater Marsh, as well as a large number of marsh creatures, including fierce predators such as fierce crocodiles, and a mixture of dragons and snakes. He dare not put his home in it. .
Compared to the previous task, the Blackwater Marsh is much more complicated. Even if there are more cannon fodder available now, he did not dare to act rashly. He just asked the murloc servants to chop down trees and carry stones to build nests first. Dozens of naga went out and went around.
He first went to the vicinity of the alluvial island at the mouth of the river. Good fellow, as soon as he approached the area, he saw a fat blue shark rushing over with his big mouth open.
This guy was very fat, and his whole body was chubby, but when he opened his mouth and shook his body and rushed over, it reminded Lin Xiao of a certain emoticon picture for some reason, with an inexplicable sense of joy.
But the feeling of joy returns to the feeling of joy, he will not show mercy when he starts.
With a wave of his hand, dozens of naga rushed forward and slammed them to death. The corpses were naturally eaten on the spot as their snacks.
Wait for them to leave, leaving only a pile of uneatable remains, attracting a large group of small fish to compete for the remains.
Next, they circled these alluvial islands and encountered no fewer than 30 battles. There were more predators in this sea area than expected.
Fortunately, their current strength is quite strong. The strength of the second and third levels is considered to be the upper-middle combat strength in the shallow sea area. Dozens of them walk together. Generally, not many sea beasts can beat them in the shallow sea.
Go around the alluvial island and go south along the junction of the Blackwater Marsh and the sea. This Blackwater Marsh is on the seashore and has no separation line from the sea. You can enter the swamp directly from the sea.
Of course, although there is no separation line between Heishui Swamp and the sea, there is a clear separation line, that is, the water in Heishui Swamp is extremely black. At the junction of the two, you will know that this is The junction of the two.
He did not enter the Blackwater Marsh, but continued southward along the black-and-white junction. He swam for almost a day, and it was estimated that he had traveled sixty to seventy kilometers before he saw the end of the Blackwater Marsh.
"This swamp is a bit big!"
He remembered that the blackwater marsh terrain marked on the map was a rectangle, with the width on the side of the sea and the length on the side deep into the land. From the topographic map, the length was about twice and three times the width, which means that the black The water swamp is sixty to seventy kilometers wide and nearly two hundred kilometers long. The largest swamp on this plane occupies a considerable area even on the mainland.
At this point, he had reached the head of the swamp. Lin Xiao didn't move forward, but was about to turn around. Suddenly, he saw a large group of kobolds suddenly appeared at the edge of the swamp near the sea not far away.
It is not surprising that there are kobolds on this plane, but this group of kobolds are strictly disciplined and equipped with small shield weapons. This is obviously not a native of the plane, but a student.
He immediately became interested and turned around and swam over.
When he swam ashore from the middle of the sea, the kobolds on the barren **** of the sea also spotted him. After observing for a while, the kobold phalanx separated, and a group of heavily armed kobolds came around with an exceptionally tall kobold. Beckoned in lingua franca far away:
"Which classmate is it?"
Lin Xiao also replied in lingua franca:
"Three classes a year, Lin Xiao!"
The opposite was obviously taken aback, the dog's face showed an unexpected color and said:
"I am Meng Hui!"
Lin Xiao was not surprised, because he had a slight guess in his mind when he saw this heavily armed kobold. After all, the whole school chose kobolds as the initial family members and only one or two developed to this point. The same class Meng Hui was one of them.
"Your mission, is this also here?"
"Yes, so are you?"
"Yes, I have two missions in this blackwater swamp."
"That's a coincidence."
"Yes."
The two spoke in a flat-talking tone. During the chat, Meng Hui couldn't help looking at the Naga behind him. He wanted to say something but he was embarrassed to ask.
chatted for a while, he finally couldn't help asking:
"Are you a Naga?"
Lin Xiao smiled and shook his head:
"It's not a naga, it's a new race that looks like a naga I created."
Meng Hui's eyes widened immediately, and his face was uncontrollably surprised:
"A new race you created yourself?"
"Yes, it's still an intermediate species."
"That"
"Yes, I have condensed the priesthood of creation in advance, and I can obtain it only when I become a demigod."
Meng Hui:
The shock and envy on his face were almost beyond words, and it took a long time to squeeze out two words:
"Congratulations!"
"Hey, good luck."
This day, I can't talk anymore.
Without a few words, Meng Hui found an excuse to run away. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would show envy and envy that he could not help but.
Watching him leave, Lin Xiao just smiled.
Although they were in the same class for one year, they didn't say a few words in a year between them. Meng Hui, who was the top five in the class, looked down on him, but now he has stronger strength and potential, and he almost needs to look up.
The episode was quickly forgotten by him, anyway, their tasks did not conflict.
Returning from the original road and back to the mouth of the Heishui River, when he was about to cross the valley, he suddenly saw a small group of frogmen hunting another large group of murlocs at the junction of the swamp and the sea.
Obviously there are fewer than murlocs, but they fight murlocs under pressure.
A frogman is also called a marshman. It is a humanoid creature that looks like a frog or a toad. It has a fat body, webbed hands and feet, big eyes and a very wide mouth, and a long flexible tongue. Can stick out the tongue like a green snake to stick to the target.
Frogmen like to make their homes by big rivers or swamps. They build small villages and breeding ponds on river banks or swamp floating islands to lay their eggs, that is, tadpoles, and they will not go ashore until they grow up to about one meter of hands and feet.
A young frogman must successfully kill a prey before being accepted by the clan, and losers will be exiled and not recognized by the clan.
This group of young frogmen hunted this group of murlocs, it should be their coming-of-age ceremony.
Lin Xiao did not interfere with their coming-of-age rites, only to observe their fighting style outside, just to study the frogman's abilities, and to deal with it better then.
Frogmen's fighting style is primitive. They usually use bone sticks or wooden sticks, or even stone sticks or stones directly as weapons. They can use simple marsh language, and generally like group activities between three and twelve.
