Heinz Ellis later climbed out of the mud and it turned out to be a false alarm. But he brought back bad news.
"The whereabouts have been exposed, the locals are following us."
Earth dwellers usually trade passively, but there is also the possibility of active trading. In order to prevent the Earth dwellers from selling their whereabouts to the Bloodline Family Alliance, they must make a decision as soon as possible.
Whether leaving or attacking.
"Will anyone die from this?" Lu Li asked.
It must be admitted that Lu Li only knew about the battles of this era through books and the duel field of the Giant Tree Academy, and he had no experience.
"If we were sudden enough, they wouldn't have time to do anything," Nunes replied.
It's like the musket duel in the old days. The first one to load the ammunition is the absolute winner.
Pasha Rivas put his armor back on: "Thoth and I will protect you."
"I can see your bulky and conspicuous armor in the Main Familiar Continent." Heinz Ellis sarcastically said.
The flat mire couldn't hide any outline, not just the two knights, but them as well.
But Lu Li had a solution: the businessman Anthony brought an invisibility potion and everyone drank it to hide the silhouette. Although the footprints still existed, it was a problem after getting closer.
Approaching the mining area along the road that was confused with the swamp. When the outlines of Bloodline Family Alliance players appeared in the distance, Nunes's whisper sounded faintly around him.
"Get as close as possible before being discovered, and then attack without hesitation, because they will not show mercy."
The four Bloodline Family Alliance players were scattered outside the mining area, unaware of their approach.
The ground tremors that occurred every ten minutes came from the depths of the mining area, confusing the swamp and blurring the traces of their approach.
When the tremor subsided, I could already see the clan emblems embroidered on their clothes or cloaks.
"I feel that there are many eyes around me... watching you." Will Ken suddenly whispered at this moment.
"Are you the judge?"
Lu Li thought of the leaders of the ten camps he had never seen before.
"I don't know who the judges are...but Lu Li, they won't pay attention to the outskirts of this mining area with nothing." Will Ken combined the experience of the legendary agent: "This is a trap, trust Will."
Lu Li looked dozens of meters away.
The Bloodline Family Alliance players stationed outside the mining area looked around the swamp and seemed not to notice the people under the invisibility potion.
But they are too close to each other...
"We may have been discovered, so retreat temporarily."
Everyone who was sneaking paused at Lu Li's voice, and then chose to retreat.
"Do it!"
The shouts of the Bloodline Family Alliance players rang out at the same time.
The swamps on both sides surged up, sweeping over everyone in the invisible state like a wave.
"I am a shield of protection!"
The roars of Pasha Rivas and Thoth sounded at the same time, causing waves of mud to leap over the others and engulf them.
bang bang
Two afterimages rushed into the muddy waves that swallowed Pasha Rivas and Thoth. The silhouette of Ida's arthropods sank deep into the mud, struggling to drag the two guys out of the mud and keep them apart.
More silhouettes came from the mining area, but because of Will Ken's reminder, the blood family alliance's counter-ambush ended in failure.
They keep enough distance from the Blood Family Alliance: they cannot fight, but they can watch each other.
"I didn't know that the famous exorcist was here." A silhouette wearing a gauze cloak stood in the distance, recognizing Lu Li's identity: "If you need cooperation, why don't you come to us?"
"If you sincerely want to cooperate."
"We certainly have no intention of confronting you. Are you interested in making a deal? Give them to me and I will tell you the exit location and will not abide by the Mengsk family's covenant to capture you..."
"Not interested."
"What a pity..." The cloaked figure shook his head slightly: "The Mengsk family who are looking for you will arrive soon, and we will soon see that the legendary exorcist didn't even make it through the first tournament."
Heinz Ellis, who was dripping mud like a clay doll, pursed his lips: "If you want to punish these heirs of the blood family..."
"Let's leave." Lu Li said calmly.
With a playful gaze, they disappeared deep into the swampy northland.
…
Wow
On the edge of the rolling hills covered with dense forest, Pasha Rivas and Thoth washed away the mud that remained on the lining and armor.
They have never been so luxurious. Tenacity and endurance are one of the knight's creeds. However, with the unlimited backup of businessman Anthony, they will not be stingy about the opportunity to get rid of discomfort.
"If you insist on dealing with those arrogant nobles, we can do it."
Although the cost is injury and death, both the enemy and themselves.
Heinz Ellis felt unwilling to accept Lu Li's choice. The Noble Council and the Bloodline Family Alliance were similar to some extent: they both focused on honor. What was more painful than death was bringing shame to the family behind it.
If their leader was not Lu Li, Heinz Ellis would not back down.
"I don't like fighting."
Lu Li just replied like this.
As mentioned before, Lu Li cannot understand or agree with the behavior of consuming his own strength.
Regardless of the academy, family, force or camp, to Lu Li, their status is not higher than that of human beings themselves.
So Lu Li’s story is still circulating today
Looking around, the dense forest on the rolling hills is still a dead place. Crooked corpses hug each other tightly, erecting unnamed tombstones for themselves.
Lu Li, Nunes and Will Ken all recognized this place: the area where Will Ken had stayed for more than 20 years.
To the northeast, a remaining stone pillar stands above the dim swamp.
The plan has come full circle, and it seems that it has returned to Lu Li's original goal: the Curse of the Swamp title.
"I know the first level of the previous tournament."
Carrying a red paint-stripping musket at all times, Kaiser, who also comes from the United Gods Town like Nunes, recalled what his brother told him before departure: "What they experienced was the [New World], and all the players were released."
To enter a pure land without disputes and pollution, the task is to find the source of pollution. Every day the environment will deteriorate, the second day will be worse than the first, and the third day will be worse than the next..."
When the pollution becomes serious enough, strange things begin to emerge from the other world, eroding this deteriorating pure land.
The contestants searched for clues while confronting the strangeness. Finally, they found the true source of the pollution.
themselves.
"Humans who steal the forbidden fruit will be cursed..." Ida whispered in a low voice, a motto that Lu Li didn't know the origin of, but he remembered it.
"What do you think we have in common this time?" Nunes asked.
"Well, for example... is it possible that the exit is not a physical exit as we understand it?"
"Can I help you..."
At this time, Will Ken's vicissitudes of voice sounded in my mind.
Listening to Kaiser's analysis, Lu Li organized his thoughts and told the legendary agent the rules of the first level and his suspicions.
"The motto of the earth dwellers...what does it say?"
