This island in Southeast Asia was originally a resort, but now, it had become a paradise for monsters. There were hermit crabs larger than humans, killer fish, and giant cannon hermit crabs that were the bosses. However, the most dangerous place was in the forest.
Not to mention the monkeys that swung on the vines, the monkeys that used guns, the killer bees that dismembered people as soon as they caught them, and the man-eating flowers that hid in the dark …
In the river area in the middle of the forest, moving along the grayish-black mud, there was a vast swamp.
Various strange-shaped plants were rooted in the mud, and the muddy sewage gathered into puddles of various sizes. Some were black, some were blood-colored, and long thread-like algae intertwined together. It looked like the blood-stained hair of a dead person. The air was filled with an unpleasant smell. It was the smell of death and decay.
Grim Reaper's Swamp!
This was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous area. There were muddy puddles, soft mud, and various mutated creatures and parasites. The dead branches, leaves, and roots of countless plants rotted in the muddy water under the scorching sun, producing biochemical toxins.
The insects in the swamp were like man-eating ants, eating all humans who stepped into this dead area.
Some algae were stacked on top of each other, forming a seemingly flat and safe land. This was undoubtedly the most dangerous place in the swamp. The algae covered the quagmire, and stepping on it would be like falling into quicksand, sinking into the quagmire.
However, for people who could fly, this place was not that scary.
Black Saber's face was gloomy. This swamp was filled with the smell of death, blocking her spiritual senses. Moreover, the endless swamp, various withered trees, and thick gray fog were like an illusion. After wandering around here for four days, they still could not find the boss, Grim Reaper's Dragon.
A while ago, after Black Saber arrived, she first met up with the Octadic Spectral Squad and heard about the girls' encounter — they had a conflict with a special city in Southeast Asia.
Initially, she wanted to stir up some trouble. She immediately led Dong Qing, Misaka Mikoto, Tifa, and the rest to fight the posthumans more than thirty times. In the end, they almost destroyed the city core. It was only because Tifa, Ning Shuixin, and the rest could not bear to see so many civilians lose the protection of the special city and die at the hands of the monsters that they retreated.
The group of people who had successfully vented their anger were originally prepared to return, but since they had come to Southeast Asia, wouldn't it be a wasted trip if they didn't kill the strongest BOSS here?
Under Black Saber's lead, a total of nine women entered the Deathgod Swamp.
Dong Qing, Dusk, Tifa, Mai Shiranui, Ning Shuixin, Wang Feifei, Lv Qiling, and Misaka Mikoto, each of them sat on a metal aircraft shaped like an animal. This was the animal form of the Revered Armor, while Black Saber flew using magic.
After all, Lin Xi had used the method of separating information from the soul, and with the help of the Dark Soul Stone, a super treasure in Diablo, Black Saber had added a lot of abilities to its original foundation.
"Why don't we go back?"
They had been away from Shen City for many days. Not only was Ning Shuixin a weak girl, she missed Lin Xi very much, and even Sis Cannon was getting impatient.
"After so many days, we still haven't found the target. Are we going back just like that? How is that possible! "
Black Saber was furious. Her blood-red eyes flashed with a cold red light, and a green aura-like airflow wrapped around her body. In the airflow, there were strands of black mist flashing from time to time. Occasionally, blood-colored lightning flowed through it, indicating how dangerous she was now.
Good Thought and Evil Thought. One was equivalent to the aura of heroism, the wave of nothingness, and the aura of a deity, while the other was equivalent to the aura of evil, the wave of murderous intent, and the aura of Asura.
Black Saber was obviously about to explode in her Asura state.
Dong Qing and the others looked at each other, feeling helpless.
"I think … maybe it's like this … We have been flying in the sky on the Revered Armor for the past few days, and the aura of Asura that you emitted … is too strong, and the Dragon of Death is hiding. Why don't we disguise ourselves more normally and see if the boss will appear?"
Ning Shuixin said carefully.
"Hmm?"
Black Saber was stunned. It seemed to make sense. She frowned and said, "But how do we disguise ourselves as ordinary posthumans?"
"Put away the Revered Armor, hide your aura, and use vehicles to fight."
"However, vehicles can't be used in the area around this swamp. Let's go to the land in the center. Also, the next time we encounter monsters, don't use your abilities, just use your weapons."
This was the area of influence of the Metal Slug monsters. After Dong Qing and the others entered Southeast Asia, they obtained many weapons and vehicles.
The Revered Swamp was surrounded by swamps, and the center was land. There were also some indigenous villages — of course, these indigenous people were also monsters. When they were investigating the boss in this swamp from the sky, Black Saber and the others killed a lot of them.
After receiving Ning Shuixin's suggestion, Black Saber took the girls and flew into the core area, then descended from the sky.
Black Saber did not wear the Lich King Armor, but a black skirt armor. This time, she put the Magic Sword Frostmourne, the Sword of Failure, and the Sword of Breach into her space bracelet. The girls put away their Revered Armor one by one.
Dong Qing poured out a lot of things from the inventory space on her phone.
Misaka Mikoto, on the other hand, took out several vehicles from her bracelet.
There was a "revolutionary weapon" that looked like a power armor, a drill truck with a huge drill in front, a rocket launcher that could fire rockets in Metal Slug 4, a humanoid walking machine — the vehicle that appeared when Metal Slug 2 fought the mummy boss, and an armed jeep.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing was a tank:
Golden Metal Slug!
Even the game name was "Metal Slug", which showed how powerful this vehicle was. However, it was limited by the world. This kind of tank was far inferior to the legendary tank in America's Mech City.
Black Saber did not like gold, so she took out a tank that looked like a triceratops from dinosaurs. It was a biochemical tank.
"And weapons!"
Dong Qing pointed at the weapons on the ground. "Before we meet the Dragon of Death, don't use your abilities. Use these guns to fight. However, these are not unlimited ammunition, so it's best to use them sparingly."
S gun, F gun, R gun, C gun, H gun, L gun — that is, flamethrower, grenade launcher, homing missile gun, heavy machine gun, and laser gun.
Dusk, Tifa, Mai Shiranui, Ning Shuixin, Wang Feifei … After each of the girls took a weapon, Dong Qing looked at Black Saber and said, "Aren't you going to take one?"
"What kind of trash is this!"
Black Saber frowned and took out three weapons.
Contra S gun, Metal Slug H gun.
Metal Slug L gun.
All of these were unlimited ammo! Originally, the S and H guns were given to Black Cat and Hit-Girl in Mech City, but when they left, Black Flame Su took back the weapons, plus the L gun with unlimited ammo —
Using these three weapons to fight Metal Slug monsters, Jian Zhi was basically cheating!
As the embodiment of evil, Black Saber would not be kind enough to share these with others. These three guns were only taken out for them to see and to arouse their envy. Then, she opened the Triceratops' cover and jumped inside.
The other girls looked at each other. Dong Qing shook her head helplessly, then put away the Golden Alloy Slug and entered the Humanoid Mech Revolutionary Weapon.
Wang Feifei and Ning Shuixin sat together in the rocket launcher, while Tifa and Mai Shiranui entered the drill car. Dusk and Lv Qiling entered the armed jeep, and Misaka Mikoto sat in the Walker. A total of seven tanks began to advance.
"Da da da da da …"
Bullets sprayed from the muzzles of the vehicles. The metal warhead vehicles blasted blue energy bullets. The Vulcan cannon of the triceratops chariot sprayed hot red bullets. The indigenous people who rushed over with axes were simply lined up to be shot dead. A large number of mutant beasts and mutant plants were hit and splashed with slurry.
The monsters here were not of a high level. They relied on the Reaper's Swamp to prevent evolved humans from entering.
Ordinary evolved humans did not have the ability to fly and could not enter at all. Even if they could fly, under the poisonous gas emitted by the swamp, they might be poisoned and fall from the sky.
Along the way, they killed countless monsters and destroyed several indigenous villages. When night fell, this group of chariots found an underground maze. After discussing for a while, they entered. The underground passages were very complicated, and there were poisonous maggots everywhere. There were also super snails that were bigger than tanks with hardened giant shells on their backs.
"This is the level in Metal Slug 3!"
Dong Qing, who had played many arcade games before the apocalypse, said thoughtfully.
The venom that the maggots spat out could not corrode metal, and the snails could not stop the concentrated fire of the seven tanks. Following the meandering tunnel that looked like a person's intestines, they traveled for a full three hours before they encountered a Bug King. This was the guardian boss of the underground tunnel.
The Bug King was not weak, but the tank's firepower was too strong. There were also Triceratops equipped with Sparking Horn Cannons, Giant Horn Cannons, Triceratops Cannons, and biochemical missiles! A wave of concentrated fire from the main cannons didn't even need to release missiles to blow the boss into pieces.
After the Bug King died, the group drove up a slope that appeared. After about 20 minutes, they finally returned to the ground. It was still night time, and a huge round jade plate in the sky shone a cold light on the ground. Everyone looked into the distance in surprise.
There was a huge altar, which was filled with blood, flesh, and corpses. A dazzling bloody light wrapped around the altar, surging like waves.
"What is this?"
Seeing this bloody altar, Dong Qing thought of some cults, curses, and rituals, as well as the evil black magic of Southeast Asia. Was this altar made by a boss, or by an evolved human?
