Chapter 1140 Seedlings in the Swamp

"Where...is this place? Gah! This smell is so bad!"

The legendary Blood Mist Master and the three skeleton dragon cubs had left the underground cave at this time. They came to a new place, at least it was new to Blood Mist. ?????? ? ??????

This is a vast swamp, and the wet ground is covered with small green and brown plants, but you can also see huge plants, about ten meters high, scattered here.

Next to each large plant, there are a large number of bones piled up, which look like dinosaur bones from the shape.

"This place is called Dragon Bone Swamp." A young skeleton dragon said: "You have seen why it is called this. Look, there are so many bones here."

"I saw it." Xue Wu nodded: "I just want to know why there are so many bones here, and is the elder you are looking for here?"

"Did you see that?" A cub pointed to a tall plant and said, "Some flying animals will feed animals to those plants, and eventually the bones of those animals will appear at the bottom of the plants. They must have been digested. The elder…lives in this place.”

"Are these carnivorous plants?" Xue Wu asked in shock, "Isn't that very dangerous?"

"They won't eat us." The cub said, "But there are other dangers here. We must move forward carefully..."

With that said, the cubs walked forward. Xue Wu looked around for a few seconds, then followed...

While walking, Xue Wu still didn't stop looking around. The atmosphere here was very... strange. There was always a smell in the air. There were a large number of bones and countless small insects piled under every plant around. As it was flying, the blood mist thought that any normal dragon would be scared when it came here.

'Gala...'

Suddenly, Xue Wu heard a voice. It turned around and saw an incredible scenery, under a plant twenty meters away. A skeleton... moved.

The skeleton stood up unsteadily and moved precariously on its 'limbs'. This movement made the skeleton continue to make rattling sounds.

"That...what's going on with that?" Master Blood Mist has seen many monsters in dreams, but it found that in reality it seemed to have become... much timid. Seeing the skeleton, it suddenly made a horrified sound.

However, several skeleton dragon cubs seemed much calmer than it.

One cub said: "That is a seedling of a plant. It has just stood up. Don't worry about it."

"Seedlings?" Xue Wu asked doubtfully, "Isn't that a bone?"

"No." said the cub: "Those carnivorous plants will plant their seeds in the bones. Let the seedlings absorb the bone marrow and grow. After they grow to a certain extent, they will move on their own. Some are like cheese trees. They will plant the seeds in the bones." Some of the surrounding bones stick to its body, and then it 'wears' those bones to move, yes, just like what you see now."

After hearing this, Xue Wu said in surprise: "You have so many... moving plants here."

"Don't you have any living plants there?" said the skeleton dragon cub, "It's really a boring place, but it is said that there are many stone houses, right?"

"How can rocks be as novel as plants that can move..." Xue Wu said: "But why do these plants stick to bones and walk?"

"It is said that it is to move farther away from the mother to prevent them from competing for prey and nutrients when they grow up. You see, the plants here are all at a certain distance from each other." The cub said: "I also heard that they are cheeses. Subspecies of trees and stuff, but they’re immobile when they’re grown, whereas they’re very mobile when they’re seedlings.”

"Yes! What they did at this time was not only run away, but also... chase them!"

Under the scream of the skeletal dragon cub, Xue Wu also saw that... the skeleton sapling was actually running here at a very fast speed.

"What happened to it?" Xue Wu said quickly, but it found that several cubs had run away.

Blood Mist immediately caught up with the cubs and asked, "Is it going to attack us? Why are you running so fast!"

"That kind of seedlings will hunt nearby small animals. That's why they wear skeletons!" "Gah! They use the claws and teeth on the skeleton to tear apart their prey!" "It used to take a long time for seedlings to stand up before they could run away. ! How could this one run away so fast!"

The skeletal dragon cubs were running wildly while talking, while Xue Mist turned to look at the seedling, which had been pushed further and further away. Still can't catch up here.

However, the blood mist also discovered that there was more than one skeleton seedling chasing them. The piles of skeletons under the surrounding plants were "ready to move", and each skeleton stood up from inside. and pursued them.

"If this continues, it will attract more and more people!" Xue Wu said, "Where are we going to go?"

"Run to the elder, it will drive away these seedlings!" "Yes, we ran there last time too!"

"..." After Xue Wu heard what they said, he had no choice but to run after them. His running caused more and more seedlings to follow behind them, but these seedlings were not very fast. Some of them would fall down while running, but it was quite easy to run in...

Soon, Xue Wu and the skeleton dragon cub reached the depths of the swamp, and Xue Wu saw...a very special plant.

This plant is different from other carnivorous plants. It looks like the kind of tree where the skeleton dragon lives. It has a thick trunk and a large number of twisted and intertwined branches. It stands alone in the swamp, and the nearest plants around it are... It was more than a hundred meters away, as if it was avoiding it.

"That's...the elder's residence!"

The skeletal dragon cubs ran over, and after entering within a hundred meters of the elder's trees, Xue Mist was surprised to find that all the seedlings had scattered, and they did not catch up.

Is there any medicine here to expel them? Xue Wu looked down at the ground. The ground here was covered with brown moss, not much different from before.

"Gaha, let's not chase anymore." The skeleton dragon cubs stopped and continued to move forward slowly.

"Who is the elder? Could it be that tree?" Xue Wu followed them and asked. The previous experience of being attacked by trees made him a little afraid of things like trees.

"No, it's a bug." said one cub.

"……insect?"

"Yes, we met it during our last adventure. It said it was reclusive and hiding in this place."

"It seems to call itself Monte or something. It knows a lot of things, so we want it to look at this egg... and maybe recognize it." (To be continued.)
