Under such circumstances, those lords who wanted to rob could only suppress their imminent thoughts.
Jiang Yi also followed the crowd and gathered around, wanting to hear first-hand news about the poisonous swamp.
These lords who withdrew from the Poison Mist Swamp all did so because of heavy losses and the failure of anti-venom agents.
Some were unable to fight for a long time in the poisonous mist due to lack of preparation, while others were forced to withdraw because too many soldiers had been killed and their muscles and bones were damaged.
After arriving for so many days, everyone has basically figured out the functions of the twenty-four [Lord Level Passive Skills].
Each level of the [Rescue] skill in the wisdom system can increase the chance by 4% to save the lives of members who were originally dead. The upper limit is level 10. When it is full, it is equivalent to reducing the combat losses of soldiers by 40%.
This is definitely a "magic skill" among passive skills.
It is also one of the real privileges given to lords by the lord system.
Almost all lords will try their best to prioritize saving skill points on [Rescue].
With the blessing of such a "magical skill", the battle loss rate of the lords' soldiers was directly reduced a lot.
Of course, if you really encounter a strong enemy, you will be killed again, or the lord will go to heaven on the spot.
Then [Rescue] alone cannot have the effect of changing one's fate against the odds.
The second and most important point is that the soldiers resurrected by [Rescue] will only have 10% health left.
This health value represents the near-death state.
In addition, the injuries on the soldier's body will not disappear, but will only heal the final blow that caused death.
The limbs that should be amputated will still be amputated, and the limbs that should be seriously injured will still be seriously injured.
But even so, the [Rescue] skill is still very important to other lords.
Even Zong Shen clicked [Rescue] to the upper limit early.
He usually pays great attention to the casualties of soldiers.
He will never fight anyone who can fight in groups. As long as he can use his skill advantage to balance the situation, he will not let his soldiers use their lives to fill the gap.
Therefore, Zong Shen is not very impressed with the [Rescue] skill.
However, for these lords who escaped from the poisonous fog, the [Rescue] skill obviously saved some of their soldiers.
In the fierce battle in the swamp just now, thirty or forty of the lords were killed, and at least five hundred soldiers fell forever in the swamp.
The result was the successful repelling of the red-scaled kobolds and hyenas.
But those hateful guys did not retreat.
God knows what is there in the depths of the swamp that they care about so much.
Even after all the active forces were defeated, the remaining kobolds and hyenas were still blocking the way.
According to the lords who left the Poison Swamp, it would only be a matter of time before a large force invaded the depths of the swamp.
Originally, everyone wanted to enter the poisonous swamp to kill the little Balrog and explore the inside of the swamp.
Unexpectedly, they all went crazy and couldn't care about the little Balrog anymore.
Especially after the first wave of the most difficult encounters, they advanced another one or two hundred meters.
A silver treasure chest and two black iron treasure chests were found near a swamp.
The appearance of the treasure chest successfully stimulated everyone's fighting spirit.
Everyone began to firmly believe that there must be treasures deep in the swamp!
No matter whether it is the thorns, quagmire along the way, or the harassment of the remaining kobolds and iguanas who hide in the poisonous mist and attack from time to time, they can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for treasure hunting.
At present, as long as the lords inside can still hold on in the poisonous mist, they are almost all working hard to advance deeper into the swamp. They have found techniques to use fire magic to clear the poisonous mist, which can effectively improve the efficiency of advancement.
As the main force deepened, the formation became more and more loose.
However, according to what these departing lords said, when they left, they were attacked by a tall kobold with black scales in front of them.
That kobold is obviously much stronger than the average red-scaled kobold warrior.
Holding two swords, his movements are unusually agile.
Even the Wolf Cavalry soldiers couldn't withstand its two swords.
In addition, its defense is not weak, and the second-level crossbowman's attack cannot even penetrate its scale skin.
In addition to the insanely powerful kobold, there are also big guys among the iguana warriors.
It is twice the size of a normal iguana.
The scales on the lower body can stand up and shoot out like blades.
It can also spit extremely corrosive mucus.
These two big guys alone are enough to give the lords a headache.
Therefore, the advance is not smooth sailing. It will take at least ten minutes to reach the depths of the swamp.
These explained everything about the situation in the poisonous swamp like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.
More than half of the nearby Anxi lords who were enjoying the show suddenly showed expressions of excitement.
It's a pity that they don't have enough anti-venom in their bodies.
This made them feel a little regretful.
Some lords even immediately returned to their territories to purchase anti-venom potions, hoping to catch a sip of soup. The news that there might be treasures in the poisonous swamp was enough to make them take risks.
After Jiang Yi heard the news, she became even more anxious.
However, the black dragon has not yet appeared, which shows that the situation in the Poisonous Mist Swamp is not that optimistic.
She pinched the communication crystal in her hand and decided to wait and see for a while longer!
There are still many lords and accompanying warriors in the Poison Swamp, and the most appropriate time has not yet come.
"call…"
Jiang Yi took a deep breath and tried her best to calm down.
Timing is very important.
If Zong Shen had arrived early, he would have been able to suppress the black dragon.
The lords stationed inside and outside will never give up.
Once there are too many people participating, chaos will arise at any time.
In chaos, risks will be greatly increased.
Therefore, she must seize the most appropriate opportunity to inform Zong Shen.
Neither too early nor too late is appropriate.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi suppressed her restless heart and continued to observe the situation in the poison swamp.
…
In the poison swamp, Lao Zhang's face didn't look good.
Four of the dozen lords who followed him were killed.
He himself was attacked by Hyena warriors.
The leather armor on his body was severely damaged, and there was a wound under his ribs that was stabbed by a war spear.
Fortunately, after these several challenges and point exchanges, Lao Zhang also has some medicine reserves.
The wound was bandaged, and he also took a bottle of [Elementary Life Restoration Potion].
Although before entering the Poisonous Mist Swamp, he had made up his mind to be a gangster among the large army.
But when the fighting really started, everything went into chaos.
The ranks became more and more loose.
Everyone was fighting on their own, almost indiscriminately.
While defeating the kobolds and iguanas, there were also many accidental injuries.
The little bit of caution in the chaos is like an illusory bubble.
Unless you choose to escape from the poisonous fog swamp, you will have no choice but to fight.
You must know that he is also one of several active supporters of this poisonous swamp exploration trip.
In order to unite those dozen lords, he also spent a lot of effort.
In fact, Lao Zhang's strength and development progress can only be considered average.
But he thinks he is well versed in the ways of the world.
It took the form of inducements and lobbying to fool so many lords.
But he forgot that in this world, strength is the cornerstone of everything.
In the chaotic battle just now, some iguana warriors from the rear broke through to the middle of the team.
I happened to bump into Lao Zhang’s small group.
Just seven or eight captain-level iguana warriors risking their lives to attack left the small group in a panic.
Captain-level monsters are actually not weak.
This is especially true when the levels of these iguana warriors are generally above LV30.
Under normal circumstances, to quickly defeat a captain-level monster with low combat damage requires at least a team of second- and third-level warriors. Therefore, when faced with the impact of seven or eight iguanas, panic in the small group is inevitable.
Not to mention that the Poison Mist Swamp is originally their home field.
The poisonous mist lingering here has no effect on them, but it is different for the lords and warriors.
Third-level anti-venom agents cannot completely eliminate the effects of toxicity, but can only weaken most of the effects of toxicity.
There are still small amounts of toxins that will enter their bodies through breathing, causing negative effects.
Only level four anti-venom agents can truly effectively resist the attack of toxins.
Strictly speaking, the toxicity of the poisonous mist should be considered level three and a half.
This extra half-level effect comes from the transformation and blessing of the environment by the black dragon.
The fourth-level anti-venom potion is a rare item, and its price is five to six times more expensive than the third-level potion.
Ordinary lords simply couldn't afford it.
Only a few wealthy lords would specially prepare one or two servings.
These are disadvantages that cannot be ignored for the lords.
The lords had a numerical advantage on their side.
The Familiar Monster Legion has the home field advantage, coupled with the organization and discipline of being fearless and fearless of death.
That was why the two sides fought so intensely, and the lords were delayed in the swamp for more than an hour.
It is precisely because of this that in the previous wave of iguana offensive, all seven or eight iguana warriors were wiped out, but the small group that Lao Zhang worked so hard to maintain was also seriously damaged.
Two lords died on the spot, and more than twenty second- and third-level warriors died in the chaos.
Fierce fighting requires breathing, which makes the lord's disadvantage worse.
By now Lao Zhang has understood that this trip to the poisonous swamp is by no means as easy as they imagined.
But after paying so much, all he could do was bite the bullet and go on.
Currently, the team on the Lord's side is extremely loose.
But it also steadily advanced towards the depths of the swamp for a distance of more than a kilometer.
The entire poisonous fog swamp is an irregularly shaped area with a length of more than ten kilometers and a width of three to four kilometers.
The deeper you go, the more ruins there are.
At this point in the journey, seven or eight treasure chests of different levels were discovered one after another along the way.
In order to fight for the ownership of these treasure chests, internal strife almost broke out.
The surviving monsters will launch sneak attacks from time to time.
It was only because of external troubles that internal strife was brought under control.
Those discovered treasure chests also became a real motivation for the lords to continue exploring.
The deeper you go into the Poison Swamp, the more ruins you will find.
Lao Zhang covered the wound that was bandaged, and the pain in his ribs made him grit his teeth.
The black lord who spoke to him before entering the Poison Swamp died in a surprise attack by the iguana warriors.
Now he is alone, surrounded by four wolf cavalry, two dragonborn rangers and a water mage.
These soldiers were all more or less injured.
Especially the wolf cavalry, both the wargs and the wolf cavalry warriors are already scarred.
When there is a lack of heavy shield infantry, wolf cavalry often play the role of the front row.
There were other lords around, but everyone kept a few meters away.
"ah!"
"This...this is!"
Suddenly, the lord walking in front exclaimed.
Lao Zhang also suddenly became excited, raised his head slightly, and looked forward.
I saw a black shadow faintly appearing in the light green mist.
Then a fierce gust of wind struck, blowing away the poisonous mist!
After the fog dissipated, all the lords saw a "hill" several dozen meters high hundreds of meters ahead. This hill had been hollowed out, like a strange cradle.
It was not this particular hill that alarmed the lords.
Instead, it was a giant black dragon hovering in mid-air, flapping its wings!
This black dragon is thirteen meters long, and its entire body is covered in palm-sized black scales.
There are sharp bone spurs on the head and back.
Its eye sockets are sunken, its cheeks are thin, its face is not plump, and it looks as ferocious as a skeleton.
There is an elliptical bone hammer at the end of the tail, and the hind limbs are slightly flexed and have obvious reflex joints.
It has ferocious claws on all four limbs, and it looks like it is not easy to mess with.
The wings of this big guy flapped, sweeping up fierce air currents.
It is these airflows that blow away the poisonous mist.
Below this black dragon, the dragon-veined kobold chief Ulysses and the iguana leader Gladstone.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They are the most loyal followers of the black dragon, gathering all the surviving subordinates together.
The black dragon is huge, and its dark yellow vertical pupils shrink slightly.
Completely lock down all intruders.
"Roar!"
He raised his slender neck and let out a loud dragon roar.
Both the Wolf Cavalry and the Night Huntress's mounts were trembling with dragon roars.
"Humble reptile!"
"How dare you break into my lair!"
"You will pay with your life!"
"I, Baley Tobias Croadi, grant you death."
The black dragon's voice was like thunder, echoing in the swamp.
It deliberately uses the mainland's common language to intimidate, in order to make the humans in front of it fearful!
After issuing the death declaration, the black dragon flapped its wings and flew towards the lords.
The remaining kobolds and iguanas below also launched their final charge.
This sudden change shocked most of the lords, but they did not flee.
Having come this far, it’s really hard to quit!
Moreover, they believe that they have strength in numbers and regard the black dragon as the "big BOSS" in the poisonous swamp.
"Kill it! The treasure is ours!"
I don't know which of the bold dog lords shouted loudly.
So the lords immediately reacted.
He immediately called on the long-range warriors and launched a counterattack against the black dragon flying towards him.
Hundreds of arrows and crossbow bolts shot towards the black dragon.
Most of them fell behind the black dragon.
A few arrows failed to penetrate the dragon scales after hitting them.
It just shot out a series of sparks on the scales, leaving faint white spots.
The defensive capabilities of dragon scales are beyond everyone's imagination.
Unless you are a high-level shooter, you can't break through its defense!
The black dragon flies extremely fast, and its speed increases after flapping its wings for a few seconds.
It flew over the head of the lord in the front row, opened its smelly mouth full of dagger-like teeth, and started breathing the black dragon.
The dark green corrosive acid sprayed downwards like a cluster of water.
It rained down on those lords and warriors.
Whether it is flesh or armor, it will be corroded quickly after it comes into contact with acid.
As the black dragon flew, the dark green breath acid drew a death ravine thirty meters across on the ground. After finishing its breath, the black dragon suddenly lifted up, reaching an altitude of two to three hundred meters.
This distance exceeds the range of ordinary long-range shooters and mages.
It hovered its huge body steadily, opened its mouth and uttered some strange syllables.
As these syllables appeared, the magical elements in the space were inexplicably guided and began to gather.
The acid breath was like a sharp knife cutting through butter, cutting the lords' skirmishing formation in two.
Although the lords were very loosely distributed, they also killed hundreds of warriors and seven or eight unlucky lords.
The killing power of these acids is very powerful. Not only can it corrode armor, but even magic shields can be quickly eroded. Once it comes into contact with the body, it will cause continuous high damage until it is corroded into a pool of green rotten water.
until.
And the corrosive water produced by corrosion is actually corrosive to a certain extent.
Any place that is spitted by the acid breath turns into a green acid "stream".
After breathing, the remaining red-scaled kobold warriors and iguana warriors, led by Ulysses and Gladstone, came over again to kill.
The lords generally lacked effective means of air control, making it difficult to pose a threat to the high-altitude black dragon.
In this way, fear gradually appears in everyone's heart.
They cannot cause effective damage to the black dragon, but the black dragon can cause fatal damage to them.
This is not their territory, and they cannot even rely on defense towers to counterattack.
In such a unequal situation, escape seems to be the only way out.
Continuing to stay in the poisonous swamp is the same as committing suicide.
The red-scaled kobold warriors and iguanas warriors who attacked after the acid breath were also killing.
"Go quickly! Leave the poisonous swamp!"
Poisonous fog, black dragons, dependent monsters, muddy swamps...
Apart from numbers, lords have no advantage whatsoever.
Since the team became looser, even the numerical advantage has been almost eliminated.
Staying here is a dead end!
In the absence of powerful means and high-level warriors, this black dragon alone is enough for them to drink from a pot.
Under such circumstances, a rout occurred!
The lords turned around and ran towards the outside.
At the same time, the black dragon in the sky chanted the last weird syllable.
Level 5 Advanced Dragon Language: Poisonous thorns everywhere!
