my age of magic

Chapter 1621 170. Ancient Ruins
A gust of warm wind blows through the striped orchid grass, and the dewdrops on the grass leaves roll down and hit the head of a swamp poison frog with black and green stripes.

Taking this opportunity, a gray-haired otter lurking among the striped orchid grass rushed out quickly, trying to escape under the duckweed in the swamp pool, but it did not expect that the poisonous swamp frog was not caught in the water at all. Affected by the bead, the big round eyes in the transparent eyelids quickly caught the gray fur otter who wanted to break out. It opened its mouth wide, and the tongue like a strong rubber band stretched out like lightning, and shot one meter away. gray otter.

The otter weighed at least eight or nine pounds, and was easily bound by the tongue of the poisonous swamp frog. An invisible force pulled it and quickly threw it into the mouth of the poisonous swamp frog. It was a deep, dark well into which the gray-fur otter was sucked in an instant.

'Plop' sound.

Swamp poison jumped into the pool, leaving a shallow line of water in the still pool.

Looking across the swamp, there are thousands of lizard warriors lurking in a palm forest in front of them. A series of vigorous figures shuttle freely in the dense forest without being affected by the night. This is mainly because the lizard warriors have night vision ability.

Kalantso, Justus, and Katerina and I were lying in a pond in the swamp about 300 meters away from the group of lizard warriors, secretly observing the movements of the group of lizard warriors from a distance.

During the day, Deborah scouted in the air, and accidentally discovered this group of lizardmen lurking in the woods, so we sneaked up to this group of lizardmen at night to see where their goals are. I think this group of lizardmen It seems to be secretly approaching the Guzaher tribe.

A water snake the size of a finger swam past me. Katerina pulled out her dagger and touched the water lightly. The tip of the dagger cut through the water snake's fragile abdomen. The water snake rolled violently in the pond and quickly sank to the bottom of the water. .

I turned my head and glanced at Katerina. Under the night, her eyes showed a dark red color.

A five-member lizard patrol team came around from the dense forest to the swamp pond. The few of us took a deep breath and sank silently to the bottom of the water, just under the duckweed in the pond , quietly away from this lizard team.

The poisonous swamp frog that swallowed the gray-haired otter just now had its head pierced by a bone spur. The toxin's body lay at the bottom of the pond.

We quickly swam past the poisonous frog until we got to the other side of the swamp pond, and then crawled out of the pond, dripping wet.

"Those lizardmen warriors are not looking for us, they should just pass by..." Justus said to me squatting on the bank, shaking his wet hair after he climbed ashore.

Using both hands and feet, I crawled out of the pond, ignoring the wet leather armor on my body, and asked him, "Where do you think they want to go when they come out at night like this?"

Justus smiled and said, "Going in this direction, there is only one possibility... the Guzaheer tribe."

I stripped off the boots and poured out the water, otherwise I would have to walk in water-filled boots.

I told Kalanzo: "Let Deborah inform Inzaghi of the Guzaher tribe, anyway, he is still very good to us, I don't want to wait for us to come back, stationed in Ai There is another lizard tribe at Ramocus Pass, maybe the lizard tribe will not be so friendly to us."

Kalantso agreed very simply: "Okay, I'll go and wake Deborah up right now."

Our camp is nearly five kilometers away from the forest area where these lizardmen are hiding. If Deborah hadn't accidentally discovered the lizardmen warriors sleeping in the canopy during the day, I'm afraid we would have passed them by.

Not long after returning to the camp, Deborah took a letter written by Nathaniel in the lizard language and flew to the Guzaher tribe in the dark.

However, I doubt whether the lizardman nobleman Inzaghi can understand the letter written by Nathaniel, because the lizardman characters on it are too scribbled.

May the lizardmen of the Guzaher tribe be able to defeat those enemies...

……

After walking out of Mount Alamocus, we have already entered the hinterland of the northern part of the wild swamp. Nathaniel told us that this is the approximate location where the ancient ruins were found. To live in a specific location, so we still need to search slowly.

In this vast rainforest, the lizardmen coexisted with many mid-level monsters, and these lizardmen tribes were only a few limited areas of the entire swamp.

We avoided unnecessary conflict with the Saurus tribes, so we quietly bypassed their territories and searched for the ancient ruins in this swampy rainforest.

We are worried that Deborah will provoke a group of flying dragons deep in the rainforest when Deborah scouts in the sky, so we will strictly limit the time Deborah scouts in the sky every time.Although they didn't provoke the flying dragons, they came across a nest of dragonflies in a forest of sky-watching trees.

Dragonfly is a unique flying monster in the wild swamp. They like to live in groups on tall trees, and those sky-watching trees with a height of [-] meters are their favorite habitat. The strength of adult dragonfly can knock down the middle stage of the third level and above. This flying monster has at most three pairs of transparent wings, about the size of a large owl, flying extremely fast, coming and going like the wind.

The tail of the dragon fly can emit sharp stingers. This poisonous needle has a strong toxin. If there is no antidote to the disease, even the tyrannical physique of the second-rank powerhouse cannot withstand the stinger of the dragon fly. The stinger is one of the lizard warrior's favorite poison arrows.

Deborah broke into a sky-watching forest rashly, and provoked a group of dragonflies. Fortunately, she was more clever at the time, and she resolutely activated the magic pattern on her body when she had a premonition that something was going wrong. When he escaped and fled back to the temporary camp, his face was pale with fright.

Those dragon flies flew so fast that Katerina and Kalancuo could not keep them when they intercepted them together.

The magic materials of dragonfly, a third-order monster, are all invaluable in the imperial capital. The transparent wings are the main material for wind magicians to make magic flying carpets, and the compound eyes of dragonfly can be used to make sentry guards for alchemists. The tail needle is one of the poisoned arrows that many demon hunters like to carry with them.

There was no progress in searching for the ancient ruins, but since I saw the dragonfly nest, of course it was impossible to just let it go.

For this reason, I went back to the imperial capital and went to the magic store to buy twenty pieces of sticky webs woven with magic-weave spider silk. Katerina led them and sneaked into the sky-watching forest where dragonflies inhabited. Layers of sticky nets were laid out inside, and after everything was ready, Deborah flew into the sky-watching forest to lure out the nest of dragonflies.

The sticky web made of magic-weave spider silk is the most restrained against this group of dragon flies, which are known for their speed. The three dragon flies rushing to the front crashed into the sticky web of magic-weave spider silk, and the barbarian who was hiding under the tree Human slaves shot through their bodies with giant crossbow arrows, and they turned into corpses without showing the horror of the third-order monsters at all. The remaining four dragon flies flew into the sky after seeing the bad situation, and escaped from Wangtian Forest , decisively fled.

The nests of dragon flies are full of bones of various monsters, and there are large and small magic cores in the white bones. It can be seen that the diet of these dragon flies is quite extensive, and there are few in the swamp that they dare not eat. of Warcraft.

Find out the magic image crystal of Morayal, the image in the magic crystal has been seen countless times:

"The ancient ruins are hidden in the dense forest, and suddenly a large group of flying dragons flew out of the ruins, and the adventure group that Moraya belonged to fled decisively..."

Nathaniel stood on the top of the tree and carefully identified the surrounding forest area. This is what the guide Nathaniel has done most in the past half month.

Even so, the search work was still clueless, and the mysterious ancient ruins could not even be seen.

We found one forest area after another, and the wild swamp is not good at this point. Many forest areas and swamps look similar, and there are very few giant trees that can be used as references.

Although the ancient relics could not be found, they plowed the monsters living in the wild swamp. Regardless of their value, as long as those barbarian slaves felt that they could eat them, they would start hunting.

When they were in the plane of Yero, these barbarian slaves did not dare to face the fourth-level monsters head-on. Since they possessed the armor of the Nacoma magic pattern, they even put on a fearless posture in the wild swamp , They even hunted nearly [-] white rock rhinos in a large canyon in the rainforest.

These adult white rock rhinoceros are all Tier [-] magical beasts, but they were driven into a canyon by the barbarian slaves with heavy crossbows. The barbarian slaves guarded the valley entrance of the canyon, and forced back dozens of Bai Yanrhino's charges with giant crossbow bolts. , and then it took another two full days to hunt and kill all these white rock rhinos.

White rock rhinoceros skin is a very precious high-grade leather, especially suitable for making hard leather armor with magic patterns. This kind of magic leather is very popular in the emperor.

In addition to still not having any clues of the ancient ruins, this trip to the wild swamp was very fruitful.

Although we tried our best to avoid those lizardmen tribes in the jungle, it is the living area of ​​the lizardmen tribes, so sometimes we couldn't avoid them, but those lizardmen saw the large number of warriors on our side, so they surrounded us from a distance. The back of the team followed us for a distance and saw that we had no intention of attacking their tribe, so they let us run around in the rain forest at will.

Just when we found nothing in the wild rainforest, Inzaghi, the nobleman of the Guzaher tribe, found me in the jungle.

The only thing he came up with this time was to express his gratitude to us on behalf of the Great Elder of the Guzaheer Tribe.

Although without our tip-off, the Guzaheer tribe may not necessarily be defeated, but the situation may become more passive, and perhaps recall a greater price to win the victory. Now the swamp tribe's civil war has never stopped, and the war has also spread to Alamoku These lizard tribes between Si Mountain and Piatila Mountain, because the Guzaheer tribe has not yet publicly supported a certain prince of the lizardman royal family, so this time the Calicut tribe will force the Guzaheer tribe Express your attitude.

So this time the lizard man noble came to us with a team of land monitor lizards. Driven by the lizard man trainer, those slow land monitor lizards ran in the swamp at a speed not much slower than the ancient horses.

It's just that we haven't mastered the control method of land-walking monitor lizards before, so they walk as slowly as turtles.

Sagittarius nobleman Inzaghi sat on a raised tree root, unable to hide his curiosity, he asked me with a very sincere face: "What are you looking for in the wild swamp?"

After all, the Lizardmen are the real masters of this wild swamp.

Nathaniel was a little incompetent as an interpreter. He even guessed and gestured to finally understand what Inzaghi said.

Then Inzaghi added: "Maybe I can help you."

Even if Nathaniel didn't translate this sentence, from the expression on the face of the lizard nobleman Inzaghi, I can roughly guess the meaning of his sentence.

"We are looking for an ancient ruin near here." I hesitated a little, and then stated the purpose of our trip.

The lizardman noble opened his mouth wide and asked me, "Are you looking for ruins?"

Sure enough, the lizardmen knew the exact location of the ancient ruins, so I hurriedly said, "The ancient ruins should be in ruins, do you know that place?"

"Of course, that is the most famous dragon hunting place here. Every lizardman warrior who wants to be promoted as a dragon hunter must go there to capture an adult flying dragon as a mount. Only in this way can he be recognized by all the lizardmen. "The lizard nobleman Inzagi explained to me with gestures, with a very serious expression on his face.

I guessed that Inzaghi, the nobleman of the lizards, might provide me with some clues, but I didn't expect him to know that place.

"Ah, where is your dragon hunting place?" I asked him.

Inzaghi nodded, showing a wry smile, and said with some embarrassment: "There is a large group of flying dragons living there. In fact, since the group of flying dragons has grown to 35, there have been no dragon hunters in our tribe for many years. They Always show up in groups."

"Can you take us there?" I asked the lizard man Inzaghi
"Of course, if you want to go." The lizardman noble readily agreed, and then said to me: "It's just that if you want to hunt dragons, can you leave a few, at least let them continue to multiply here? ..."

"If it's possible... I'd rather those flying dragons don't come to provoke me." I patted the Lizard nobleman Inzaghi on the shoulder and said to him.

Now that the lizard nobles agreed to my request, I didn't waste any more time. Even though those barbarian slaves were catching an adult Hydra in the swamp not far away, I forcibly summoned them back. I waited for a moment. Too late, I want to rush to the dragon hunting ground that the lizard population called as soon as possible...
