Adventurer of the Elf World

For ordinary travelers, even if they have to take a long detour, they should never go deep into this kind of terrain.

Because you never know whether the next step you take is a muddy ground or an endless quagmire.

It may appear to be solid on the surface, but when you step down, you will be completely trapped in it.

Generally, novices who have no experience and struggle randomly are likely to be swallowed by the swamp, and not even bones are left.

Even if you know how to get out of the quagmire, the elves in the swamp are also waiting for prey to enter.

Most of the elves bred in this environment are very disgusting, such as stinky mud and its evolutionary stinky mud, as well as mud loach and catfish king.

This kind of elf can move freely in the swamp, not restricted by the terrain, and even has a bonus to a certain extent.

Xiu stared blankly at the calm swamp in front of him. After staying here for a few days, he naturally knew how many dangers were hidden in it.

When you walk in, you must not only be careful of the traps brought by the terrain, but also be wary of the creatures in it.

Because it is very likely that a quagmire hunter will rush out of the mud and swallow you in one gulp in the next second.

If you want to fly over, you may have to alert the ancient giant dragonfly, an aerial hunter.

"Forget it~ Let's take a detour."

Xiu retracted his gaze, gave up the idea of ​​passing through it, and instead went around the edge of the swamp.

Fortunately, it is autumn now, and the reduction in rainfall means that the size of these swamps has decreased.

He is not afraid of danger, but because it is really disgusting. It will stink for several days after entering, and it is useless no matter how you wash it.

Xiu stepped on the slightly floating soil under his feet. This is the swamp after drying up, but there is no danger below. After all, this is only the surface layer, and the underground is still connected to the entire swamp.

So he had to poke it with a branch before he dared to step on it.

"I can see this here!"

After walking a short distance, Xiu showed an excited smile on his face, like a child who found a treasure.

The saying that risks are often accompanied by benefits is true. There are many unique plants and rare materials in the swamp.

Even Xiu found it difficult to give up these, so he walked along the edge, trying to find something interesting on the way.

Xiu stepped carefully on the floating mud and came to the plant, then transplanted it into the container in his hand.

Casey floated aside and didn't care about Xiu at all. It would not interfere with Xiu's actions for no reason, because that was his rare pleasure...

The mountains were much bigger than Xiu imagined. Xiu walked for four consecutive days before gradually leaving the swamp area. He didn't waste so much time observing before.

Of course, to some extent, it was also due to the terrain restrictions, and someone was obsessed with picking up garbage.

He found a lot of good things in it. He didn't even bother to look at the ones with lower quality when he walked to the back.

In such a sparsely populated place, the resources are really too abundant.

He also asked Casey to leave a mark here, so that if necessary, he could move here directly.

Now it's so big, I don't know what crazy scene this side is during the summer flood season~

Xiu continued to go deeper into the mountains happily, and sure enough, he soon found his short-term goal.

Water source!

Since the swamp appeared, it must be inseparable from the water source.

He quickly found his goal along the edge, and then came to a river that shuttled between the mountains.

Xiu observed the terrain for a while. If the swamp was a little lower, it might become a lake when the water overflowed in summer.

When Xiu came to the river, he did not release the elves and clean himself in the water as usual, even though he was now covered with all kinds of strange filth and a rotten smell spread over him.

The gift of nature is not so easy to obtain. This is just wandering around the periphery. If he goes deeper into it, he will be even more embarrassed.

Fortunately, his reason did not let him fall into greed.

And now his reason did not let him relax and indulge in pleasure.

Because there is something in the water~

Xiu stared coldly at the figures swimming in the water.

It was nothing else but those Magikarp, but the number was a little scary.

He used to often encounter Magikarp in the river in the backyard of the Oak Research Institute, but the number was definitely not so exaggerated.

Because the underwater area was almost occupied by these guys.

And the direction of these Magikarp was basically going upstream.

"What's going on?" Xiu whispered to himself, and then turned to look upstream.

His sight gradually extended, but he still couldn't see the end of the river, and could only see the red figure on the riverbed.

"Let's go! Go up and take a look." Xiu was a little curious about what this situation meant.

He had no interest in Magikarp, a real small fish elf, before, and he was too lazy to observe it, and even a little disgusted.

Because this thing is too rampant, occupying the water veins of the world, and can be seen everywhere.

Although there are many green caterpillars, they are controlled by various predators and provide food for many elves.

But Magikarp is simply helpless against it. Only when it enters the sea with the river can it encounter opponents like Megalodon. There is basically no opponent in rivers and lakes. Even the alliance cannot control the number if it intervenes. It is really terrible.

But today, the abnormal behavior of these Magikarp aroused his interest.

Following the Magikarp all the way upstream, Xiu soon noticed something and quickened his pace. Sure enough, he found a waterfall upstream of the river.

The powerful sound of the water flow was what caught his attention just now.

Xiu gradually slowed down his pace and looked at the waterfall.

This is a waterfall with a drop of about 20 meters. The whole is made of rocks. You can see that the rocks have become smooth after years of scouring. In addition, they are covered with moss, which makes them look slippery.

On both sides of the waterfall are some hanging vines and tree roots, which are the extension of the forest above. Even the rocks can't stop the vigorous vitality of the plants.

And below is naturally a pool formed by the impact of the water flow.

Xiu didn't know the depth, because there were layers of Magikarp in it, climbing strangely, and trying to swim up along the falling water.

The bottom of the cliff was densely covered with Magikarp, which would make people with trypophobia dizzy at a glance.

And now Magikarp are still swimming in from the river.

Seeing this, Xiu didn't know why he thought of the carp pond at Rainbow University.

Suddenly, a Magikarp seemed to be tired of the meaningless climbing, and swung its strong tail to break free from the group and jumped into the water. Unfortunately, it only jumped three or four meters high and fell back into the water under the pull of gravity.
