Chapter 417 Swamp
Alison scratched the ground with her toes, biting her lips, but her eyes were fixed on her toes: "Can I go with you? I'll help."
"What's that expression on your face? You're not doing a mission, are you?"
Field was sweating profusely, and was shocked by the other party's twisting and turning. This guy was just like hiding a "little pearl".
"I, I'm serious." Alison waved her hands quickly.
In the battle of Fulan City, the entire city was annihilated in death. She thought everything she had was ruined, and the Night Territory was a place with no future, so she thought about living in a daze.
Who would have thought that in just over half a year, the Night Territory has developed rapidly.
It even split off the fortress and expanded rapidly to the surrounding areas, and the number of God's Chosen around Field increased. Anyone who was not blind immediately realized the potential of the Night Territory.
Alison thought to herself: If I continue to slack off, I will probably become a transparent person.
"I want to help."
"Then come and sign a contract." Field gave a thumbs up. It was a good thing to have the Chosen One join. "Welcome, welcome. I like the Minotaur segment."
"No, no, let's talk about this later. You don't know me yet."
Alison waved her hands repeatedly. In her opinion, if she signed a contract without doing anything, she would not be taken seriously. It would be better to do something that would impress everyone before signing a contract.
This little girl is really slow to warm up, Field thought secretly. But the other party is very broad-minded, so slowness is not a big problem.
"Okay, since you asked, let's pack up and set off immediately."
Field called the two survivors to inquire about the situation.
"Sir, we were originally prospecting for minerals. Mr. Yago discovered that these holy light minerals were washed down from upstream by the river. So we decided to follow the river and continue to explore upstream."
"However, before we had walked for long, a group of corrupted beavers attacked us from behind and chased us all the way. Due to the large number of people in the convoy, it was inconvenient to retreat, and Miss Alexia ordered us to return first."
"Okay, I understand. You two follow me and lead the way for me."
"Yes, sir!" The two soldiers agreed loudly.
After learning the details of the situation, Field marked the approximate location on the map.
Due to the shortage of other soldiers, Rosaria is still recuperating.
Field took two soldiers, as well as Ashina and Alison, and also took the Chosen God of Destruction, Philomena. This guy looks like a first-level, but his combat power is amazing, just in time for use.
"Go quickly and help the exploration team."
The flooded ruins are very close to the salt mine outpost, located in the north and west of Night Territory, at the intersection with Morning Territory.
There used to be two villages on both sides of the river. Since Morning Territory is located in the coastal lowlands, flooded villages occasionally occur.
Going upstream along the nameless river in Starry Night City, we soon arrived at the flooded ruins.
The entire river has been hidden under water, replaced by a swamp that is submerged to the knees. A huge wooden dam crosses the flooded ruins.
Every step they take, it is difficult to determine whether they will step on mud or a bottomless underground river.
"Sir, the exploration team should be walking in this direction."
"Well, the direction should be correct."
The icon of a living person finally appeared on the small map.
"I didn't expect that this place was flooded during the previous reconnaissance. It is still flooded now, and even worse." Field was amazed, "It has become a swamp."
"It doesn't look like the season. My lord, look, the Dawn Territory in the distance has turned into a swamp." Asina pointed at the Dawn Territory in surprise, "We came to explore before, and it shouldn't be that serious."
"I always feel something is wrong."
The Dawn Territory is full of water, with only a few floating islands, and even corpses can't be seen.
But on the small map, the Dawn Territory is full of red skull marks, no more than the Night Territory.
Asina looked around: "I smell a disgusting fishy smell, like it's emitted by aquatic monsters."
"Keep moving forward, find the exploration team quickly, and hope the loss will be less."
Field sighed helplessly. After he had the small map and the Chosen One, he looked down on the Northern Province. This place is really not a place for people to stay.
"Yes, sir."
Everyone stepped into the flooded ruins, making a "swishing" sound in the water. The gray-black muddy water was mixed with disgusting rotten secretions, which was very disgusting.
The dragon wolf and two soldiers led the way in the front. It waved its palm from time to time, smashing the obstacles and garbage in the dark.
Only Feiluominai enjoyed the best treatment. She could sit on the horseback, and Field led the horse forward.
"She is not pretending to be stupid, right? She actually let the baron lead the horse." Alison was jealous. Purely out of a woman's competitive heart, she said sourly, "As an extraordinary power, it should protect the people."
"Master, I like it!" Feiluominai squinted her eyes and called sweetly, with joy on her face like a goddess.
"Hey, okay, okay."
His brows relaxed a little, and the haze in his heart dissipated. Field smiled at her lovingly, and then spoke for Filomena: "There's nothing I can do. She just looks like an iceberg beauty, but her mind is no different from that of a little loli."
"Hey, she can say other words." Ashina said in surprise, "What other words has she learned? They can't be all embarrassing words. Adults can't teach children bad things."
Field said with embarrassment: "After she recovered her moonlight form last time, she mastered one more word, but only this one."
This scene made Alison shake her head and secretly thought: The wolf-man is still too naive. With these big white legs, these pointed bunnies, and this face that brings disaster to the country and the people, it is estimated that they will soon be favored by the lord. Ashina is really something. I don't know how to discipline her.
After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, under Field's deliberate guidance, everyone quickly approached the exploration team.
"My lord, look, Alexia's team is over there!"
With her keen sense of smell, Ashina found the specific location.
The exploration team's carriage was parked on an island in the middle of the river. It is called an island in the middle of the river, which is a high ground above the water. There are even stone houses on both sides. The light of the fog lights dispelled the surrounding gray fog.
The soldiers of the exploration team have also received professional training. They surrounded the wooden wheeled carts in a circle and built a simple fortress. There are obvious traces of fighting around. However, no one saw the soldiers, perhaps they were resting in the fortress.
"It's strange, they were obviously going to explore for ore, why did they come here? Everyone be careful, in case it's a trap."
Ashina nodded and said, "Your Excellency is right, the dragon wolf is going forward to explore the way."
