Chapter 84: The Guardian of the Desolate Grave, Granny Green Grass (4800 words)
As the surging energy continued to be devoured by Haggs, the shriveled lizard corpse broke into pieces bit by bit, until it finally turned into debris on the ground.
The painful expression on the lizardman hero's face became more and more distorted, and the tremendous energy almost burst him.
The pain of tearing one's flesh and soul apart cannot be avoided, even if one has the talent to be fearless of pain.
Hags roared, his body twitching as he slowly fell on the swift lizard, his head pressing on its heart intentionally or unintentionally.
The Qi and blood burned like flames, covering both of them.
Then his eyes slowly closed, his breath was restless, and he fell into a deep sleep.
If someone else were to undergo this transformation, even if it was the Two-Headed Ogre Chieftain, I'm afraid it would be very dangerous.
Upon seeing this, Lear took out the bloody sperm that the Mosquito Queen had just produced.
Place it not far from their side, just enough to be touched by the qi and blood.
Then he was delighted to see that the blood energy enveloped the blood essence, and the blood essence evaporated and shrank little by little.
It turned into energy and flowed into his body.
However, the speed was not very fast, obviously the previous energy absorption had almost reached saturation.
But something is better than nothing. Maybe this little extra energy can help the other party take a step forward.
After staring for a long time and confirming that Hags could not complete the transformation in a short time, he did not stay for long.
After instructing the wetland lizardmen around to keep a close watch and not allow anyone to disturb them, he turned around and returned to his tent.
He occupied the mineral veins, enslaved the cave dwellers, discovered an unexpected bronze coffin underground, and finally allowed Hags to undergo a transformation.
After running around all day today, he was a little tired.
But after completing these two pieces of information, he made a lot of money.
Having one's own iron mine means that future weapons, armor and daily needs can be met.
Moreover, there are miners like the cavemen who bring their own dry food, so he doesn’t need to put in much effort and just has to wait for the harvest.
On Hags' side, he can obtain a powerful 3-star hero, and the opponent will activate his second talent when he transforms.
They will even be transferred to become the legendary Lizardmen - the Cold-blooded Cavalry.
With this series of events, he was looking forward to how powerful he would be when he woke up.
Li Er needs to become as powerful as possible when the authority appears on August 8. At that time, he will face the level 14 flying dragon!
After washing up and lying down to rest, I could faintly hear the sound of the swamp banshees rehearsing.
These magical beings have a special structure and do not need to rest like humans. They only need to consume a little emotion every day to maintain their state.
This allowed them to have enough time to rehearse in the evening.
Drama is not only a performance, but also a way to make yourself stronger.
Lear didn't pay much attention to it and fell into a deep sleep in a moment.
On the morning of the 21st, the first thing he did after getting up was to check on Hags. This hero and his own swift lizard were still sleeping.
There was no change in posture.
But he could clearly feel that the aura of both of them had increased significantly.
The surrounding lizardmen looked over here frequently, their eyes full of anxiety, as if they were guarding a giant dragon that might wake up at any time.
At this rate, perhaps they would complete their transformation by evening.
His eyes relaxed.
Without further ado, he summoned the army immediately.
Today's goal is the second piece of information -
35 kilometers to the southeast, a group of swamp creatures grows among the reeds - the green grass ladies. They are very good at taking care of plants and have a connection with the vine fairies.
3 stars is enough to say it all.
Lear brought two vine fairies with him on this trip.
Since those green grass ladies are related to these chubby little guys, it might be more effective to let them communicate.
3 squadrons of Wetland Lizardmen, 5 Swamp Wasps, Bubble Beasts, Swamp Banshees and two Vine Fairies.
fully armed.
There are warriors who fight normally, assassins with high attack and low health, mages who provide long-range support, seductive warlocks, and Lear, the nurse.
This is the configuration for brushing copies.
The two-headed ogre chieftain Ait stayed in the territory to protect Hags who had not yet woken up.
The army gathered and set out immediately.
As the scope of his exploration became wider and wider, the information provided by the intelligence system also expanded towards the outer areas of the swamp.
A 35-kilometer round trip is 70 kilometers, so we have to speed up, otherwise several battles will occur along the way, which will delay time.
When it gets dark, life in the swamp becomes more active and the danger level increases significantly.
He was unwilling to take too many risks before he had complete control of the swamp.
When he first entered the swamp, everything he saw was new to him, but after more than half a month, Lear had become accustomed to the scenery here and just kept on going.
Two hours later, when we were 10 kilometers out of the territory, a message came from the swamp wasps ahead. An unknown enemy was discovered!
Lear's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately led the army forward.
After walking about one kilometer forward, a wide muddy field appeared in front of us, with only sparse weeds growing on it.
Looking across the muddy ground, a group of very familiar creatures appeared before my eyes.
It has giant, curved and forked horns on its head, with lush moss covering the surface.
Its body is covered with plum blossom-like patterns, which are dotted and quite delicate.
The eyes were dark, large, and alert. These creatures raised their heads at this moment, looking at them motionlessly.
His eyes moved around, with some alertness and some curiosity.
Swamp giant deer!
Lear recognized these beings immediately.
I encountered these lives on the day I received the vine fairy when I first arrived at the swamp.
I didn't expect to meet him again.
His eyes immediately searched among the herd of deer.
What about the giant-horned deer king with 4-star potential and level 12?
He was deeply impressed by the other party's heroic figure.
After a quick glance around, he soon found the target's trace.
At the back of the herd of giant-horned deer, a sturdy male deer that was much taller than the other giant-horned deer was staring at them.
Its shoulder height is over three and a half meters!
Like a giant statue.
The last time he encountered him, the opponent's shoulder height was only about 3 meters.
Looking carefully, the opponent's attribute panel showed that the level had been upgraded to level 13!
The last time he was at level 12, and it’s only been half a month. This Deer King is still getting stronger!
The Swamp Giant Deer King also noticed Lear's gaze at this moment. After staring at him for a while, he looked up with some vigilance at the black mass of swamp wasps in the sky.
With a number exceeding fifty thousand, they formed a terrifying black tide.
No one wants to face a swarm of insects on this scale.
Lear looked at the other party deeply, waved his hand decisively, and left with his army.
I'm not sure.
A level 13 hero, with the opponent's series of gorgeous attributes, these 5 Swamp Hornets rushing over are not enough to fill the opponent's teeth.
Especially the opponent's talent - the ability to turn into an illusion, completely immune to physical damage, and reduce 70% of magic damage.
Isn't this just like turning on invincibility?
Compared to before, mosquito queens of the same level are far inferior.
I can only become stronger in the future and come back again.
But I am confident about it in my heart.
Half a month ago, when he discovered the swamp giant horned deer, there were only wetland lizardman warriors and vine fairies, and two or three big and small cats around him.
Now, the power he controls has increased more than tenfold.
In another month or two, the offensive and defensive situation will be reversed.
Leave this area and speed up your journey.
After walking for about twenty minutes, we suddenly heard a roar from the lizardmen.
Enemy attack!
Lear's heart skipped a beat and he hurried over immediately.
When they arrived, they found that the wetland lizardman who was exploring the way ahead was now pale and bloodless, standing in the distance, staring at one place.
Lear looked intently.
I saw a group of translucent monsters floating in the air, holding curved sickles and emitting dark blue light.
It exudes a death energy that makes people's hearts palpitate.
This is a unique group of undead life forms——
ghost!
These undead spirits were floating on a circular grave covered with weeds and covering an area of more than ten meters in diameter.
His face was facing where he was.
Grave Guard
[Level]: Level 9
[Potential]: 3 stars
[Racial Talent]: Undead ghost, born in a desolate grave, can be resurrected in the desolate grave after death.
[Skills]: Invisible Body (2 stars) Immune to 90% physical damage and can penetrate entities.
Soul Scythe (2 stars) The sickle in hand can directly attack the enemy's soul.
[Evaluation]: They were born to guard the tombs of some powerful lives.
Level 9 Undead? !
Li Er took a deep breath and took a long look at his talent - the Undead Ghost.
After death, one can be resurrected from the grave.
This was the most perverted racial talent he had ever seen.
And there is no limit on the number of deaths. This means that the opponent can be resurrected continuously!
Sensing their approach, dense swarms of ghosts began to float out from the overgrown circular grave.
Looking around, there are more than three hundred of them.
Li Er looked at the densely packed undead, and his scalp tingled. He waved his hand and ordered the army to retreat immediately.
There are more than three hundred of them, and their levels are not low. They can be resurrected, and the most fatal thing is that they are immune to 90% of physical damage.
What's the point of fighting?
Even if these undead were eliminated, there was still that inconspicuous-looking tomb below.
God knows what is buried inside.
The dark blue graveyard guards holding sickles watched them evacuate silently without taking any action.
They only floated into the grave one by one until they were about to disappear from sight. In the blink of an eye, no ghost was seen in this grave anymore.
Only the desolate grave with weeds on the top is left, waiting for the next unsuspecting outsider to approach.
Leaving the area, the army continued to move forward.
Half an hour later, we encountered the second wild monster, a group of buffalo men with horns on their heads.
He is strong and has a height of two meters and five.
Mooing.
And the skin and flesh are particularly thick and rough.
However, although the Yaungol are powerful, they are not immune to physical damage.
Seeing this, Lear immediately ordered the entire army to advance.
The army rushed forward like a tide.
The Bubble Beast created bubble bombs to disrupt the formation, the Swamp Banshee used her singing to make the Buffalo People lost, the Wetland Lizardman Warriors attacked head-on, and the Swamp Wasps whizzed down from the sky like arrows.
With all the troops joining forces to strangle them, the buffalo people were overwhelmed before they could even react.
They fell down one by one with roars of pain.
Thick cowhide cannot block the sting of swamp wasps, nor can it withstand the sharp claws and steel knives of wetland lizardmen.
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, Lear felt a little relieved.
He waved his hand and asked Bubblemon to collect the corpses.
Looking at the blood and flesh all over the ground, he thought of the grave guards again. The appearance of these ghosts made him alert.
In the future, I will have to find a way to control a powerful army of mages.
When physical damage can't do anything to the opponent, there are additional means.
Although Bubble Beasts are extraordinary, their roles are more functional.
Bubble Bomb is the only magic damage skill.
Compared with the orthodox magician, it is still a little bit lacking.
After cleaning the battlefield, continue fighting.
There are a lot of wild monsters in this area, and then we encountered three wild monster gathering places.
However, they were all annihilated by Lear's blade and became trophies in the bubble.
At noon, Lear unfolded the magic map and looked around.
Looking at the lush reeds growing around him, he waved his hand to ask the army to stop.
I was feeling quite excited — we’re here!
The vine fairy resting on his shoulder flapped its wings and flew up.
Spinning around in circles.
There was a hint of curiosity and confusion on his face.
"Father, there is a familiar aura around here. Have we been here before?"
There was a hint of doubt in her big black eyes, and with her chubby face, this fist-sized fairy was indescribably cute at the moment.
Lear was also touched by cuteness.
chuckled.
"Do you know Granny Green Grass?"
Green grass grandmother?
The two vine fairies looked at each other and shook their heads.
"I don't know~"
"never heard of that."
With the fall of the Swamp God, many of the lives he created have disappeared, and the relationships between them have long been washed away by time and are no longer close.
Some even go through their entire lives without knowing that there are lives similar to themselves, created by the Swamp God.
"Grandma Green Grass is similar to you"
There was still some confusion in the eyes of the Vine Fairy.
Lear looked at the reeds in front of him, his eyes moving slightly.
Since I have a connection with the Vine Fairy, can I also tame her directly like she did?
After he said this, he pondered for a moment and strode forward.
The divine power on his body surged up and covered everything below.
Wow~
A large number of birds were startled among the reeds.
The screams of fear echoed far away.
After the bird flew away, the scene suddenly became quiet.
In a moment, the reeds inside swayed and gradually reached the outside.
Lear watched all this silently, and his inner expectation reached its peak at this moment.
wow~
The front reeds were lifted up,
A strange figure inside slowly walked out of the reeds and looked at Lear with curiosity, excitement and disbelief.
I want to get closer but I'm afraid I'm making a mistake.
He was only about 1.5 meters tall, and his hair was not like that of an ordinary person, but was covered with reeds.
The flowers are furry and white, and it seems that the wind will drop large dandelion-like seeds.
His face was full of wrinkles, and his light silver eyes were kind.
He has a hunched body and looks very old.
She was wearing a yellowish long skirt made of reed leaves, the cut of which was in keeping with the style of an old lady.
Overall, she looks like an old lady from the neighborhood.
"Father God, is that you?"
The other person's tone was trembling a little, wanting to recognize each other, but afraid.
When Lear saw this scene, his heart suddenly settled down.
"It's me, I'm back"
Green Grass Granny
[Level]: Level 8
[Potential]: 3 stars
[Magic]: 2200
[Racial Talent]: Point Spirit, can grant plants spirituality and communicate with spiritual plants.
[Skills]: Rooting and Sprouting (2 stars) can make plants take root and sprout quickly.
Wind of Resurrection (2 stars) can revive decaying plants.
Magic Hand (2 stars) has a chance to upgrade low-level magic plants to high-level magic plants.
[Evaluation]: A unique life created by the swamp god using the power of the creator god.
The properties of Green Grass Granny are also very peculiar, all of which are related to plant cultivation.
None of them are useless.
And unlike the Vine Fairy which is only effective against starry vines, the Green Grass Fairy's skills are applicable to all plants.
Especially the spiritualization and magic hands. One can make plants gain spirituality, and the other can improve low-quality magic plants. These two skills are invincible.
Grandma Green Grass felt the sense of intimacy coming from her soul, and suddenly tears flowed down her face, and she walked towards him sobbing.
"Father God, we have been waiting for you for hundreds of thousands of years!"
Generation after generation, this process is too long.
When the Vine Fairy saw the Green Grass Grandma, she approached her in a friendly manner.
A sudden inspiration came to my mind and I shouted subconsciously.
"Old lady~"
Grandma Green Grass looked over subconsciously, and when she saw the Vine Fairy, she cried even harder.
"Have you found the fairy?"
Without any more doubt in his heart, he knelt on the ground and saluted with the most humble attitude.
"Father God~"
At this moment, the intelligence system in my mind quietly displays new information.
[You found the unique life form in the swamp - Green Grass Granny, and collected two unique life forms in the swamp. You also got an additional piece of information - when the swamp authority appears, bring the Vine Fairy and Green Grass Granny with you, which will be of great benefit to controlling the authority.]
Lear was in a very good mood.
"How many companions are there among you?"
"Let them all come out. We are going back to the City of Wisdom now. This is our new home."
The city of glimmering?
This name made Grandma Green Grass tremble and her tears flow even more violently.
Great Father God, always thinking about reviving the swamp
"Father God, including me, there are nine of us in total."
Only 3 people obtained 9-star intelligence, which also shows how precious Green Grass Granny is.
Lear was in a good mood.
"walk home!"
These production units are just as effective as powerful combat units when it comes to farming and territory development.
They are the foundation and basis for the development and rise of the territory.
