The Poison Dragon Pool.
The group that had lost half of its members finally found a small piece of land after a difficult journey.
It was like a floating island, floating in the swamp. Even though it was small, it gave everyone a great sense of comfort.
Even Feng Xi 'er descended from the sky and sat cross-legged to meditate. She breathed in and out to recover her magical power.
Chung Shen-soo opened his water sack and drank a mouthful before looking up.
The Eight Gates Golden Lock Array also had the changes of the sun and the moon.
At this moment, the three suns had already set, and the two moons were hanging high in the sky. Darkness shrouded the surroundings.
Around him, more than half of the black armored cavalrymen were dead or injured. All of them abandoned their armor and ate their rations quietly with the Taoist officials.
"Damn it, who plucked this leech!"
"No, let the military doctor do it! Where's the military doctor? "
"He died on the way. Brother Wang might not be able to keep his leg … Damn it …"
A few of the black armored cavalrymen looked at their injured comrade with gloomy expressions.
To them, the Black Zephyr Army's attack on the Poison Dragon Pool was a real disaster.
It was fine when they swept through the other tribes. On the battlefield, they were responsible for their own lives, and they were mentally prepared.
However, an invisible enemy like the swamp was a huge psychological blow to the soldiers. It was not impossible for them to secretly feel resentful.
"Heavy casualties …"
Chung Shen-soo sighed secretly. The military doctor was always the priority to be protected. Now that even the military doctor had died, it showed how dangerous and tragic it was.
Their opponents were not humans, but disgusting swamps, venomous pythons, and some indescribable things.
"We've walked for so long, but we still haven't reached the core of the array. There's an 80% chance that we've fallen into an environment like a maze. In such a harsh environment like the swamp, it'll be even more troublesome …"
Chung Shen-soo had already taken off his armor. He only tied his waist down tightly. At this moment, he released it to slowly circulate his blood.
Even a Connate Martial Artist could not endure such an environment.
It was the same for the vice envoys.
"Su … Do you know why the higher-ups insist on attacking the Poison Dragon Cave?"
Next to him, a Vice Envoy asked in a low voice.
Chung Shen-soo recognized him. His name was Zheng Xun. Three generations of his ancestors had migrated from Yan Han. He was an old man of Fufeng City and had inherited martial arts.
Later on, he broke through to the Connate Stage and joined the Protectorate General. After serving there for six years, he was promoted to the Deputy Demon-Slaying Envoy of the Minor Ninth Rank and was under the jurisdiction of Feng Xi 'er.
Since they were colleagues, everyone knew each other. They were fair-weather friends.
This person was a little talkative and liked to inquire about information.
Chung Shen-soo just listened.
"It is said that … this Venerable Poison Dragon hid a great treasure." Zheng Xun's eyes lit up. "There are countless coins of White Deity and Red Deity, as well as many precious treasures that cultivators can use …"
"Why did I hear that it was this person who refused to obey the law and violated the laws of the protectorate?" another person interjected.
"How do you know?"
Zheng Xun rolled his eyes, and the two of them began to argue in low voices.
Chung Shen-soo looked at this scene and suddenly felt a little emotional.
'The protectorate did not spread the information about the Longhu Immortal. Here, at most, Feng Xi' er and a few other seventh-rank martial artists know about it … The rest of the cannon fodder only need to know that orders are followed. What's the point of thinking so much? Hehe … not knowing the cause of life and death, not knowing the enemy, being a subordinate is really pitiful. '
Looking at the two of them who were spitting saliva, he could not be bothered with them. He prepared to go to the side to rest and play the role of a Connate Martial Artist.
Unfortunately, his strength did not allow him to.
Midnight.
The bonfire was burning.
Chung Shen-soo opened his eyes and looked into the darkness. He heard a small rustling sound like that of a worm.
In the military camp, there were naturally people on night watch.
At this time, it was Zheng Xun's turn.
The bonfire, which had become small, shone a bright yellow warm light.
In this warm light, there were suddenly a few long white pieces.
"Poof!"
The long white piece looked like a white line when viewed vertically. Zheng Xungang, who was on night watch, rubbed his eyes, and then it came to him and slashed across.
Zheng Xun wanted to say something, but it was stuck in his throat. His upper body and lower body were separated, revealing a smooth wound. His internal organs and blood flowed all over the ground.
"Hehe!
Haha! "
In the darkness, a child's playful voice could be heard.
"Enemy attack!"
After all the night watchers were killed or wounded, someone finally shouted out loud.
The white pieces were no longer hidden and revealed themselves. Only then did the black armored cavalrymen realize that they were paper dolls the size of children. They were only as thin as a piece of paper, and their cheeks were smeared with blush.
At this time, they surrounded them from all directions.
If they walked vertically, they would indeed be as thin as a line. But when they moved their limbs, they were extremely sharp and could cut through iron armor. It was an extremely powerful sorcery.
"Hey, what kind of sorcerer is doing this?!"
Seeing the death of his comrades, a black armored cavalryman's eyes turned red. It seemed that he was depressed by the swamp during the day. At this time, his blood was boiling. With a roar, he rushed over and slashed at one of the paper dolls.
He opened a pouch on his waist in midair and poured out a puff of stinking black dog blood.
Still not satisfied, he bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Tongue blood and black dog blood were both famous for their ability to destroy evil spirits. Before the army set out, they knew that they were going to deal with the sorcerers, so they specially prepared them.
The paper doll had two maid buns and a very simple face. It seemed to be a girl. It let out a shrill laugh and was splashed by the black dog blood.
Then, under the horrified gaze of the black-armored soldier, whether it was the stinky black dog blood or the boiling hot blood on the tip of the tongue, when it fell on the paper doll, it was like a drop of water falling on a lotus leaf, rolling and sliding down, not staining the paper doll at all!
The girl waved her right hand. Her thin arm slashed across the well-tempered steel saber and cut open the soldier's armor. His shoulder and neck were cut open.
"Weapons Made from Paper Cutouts!"
"Yang Dipper Technique!"
Feng Xi 'er shouted, "All of you, retreat quickly!"
Ordinary Yin Dipper Technique could be countered, but when it came to the level of Yang Dipper Technique, it was rarely countered by ordinary techniques.
To deal with such a technique, one could only use more powerful magic and more mysterious Taoist techniques to neutralize it!
Feng Xi 'er shouted and eight lancet knives flew out one after another, piercing through the paper dolls.
A boy raised his hands and tried to cut Chung Shen-soo, but a lancet knife flew past him. A small hole appeared on his forehead, and an indescribable scream came from inside. The whole paper doll spontaneously combusted and turned into ashes.
"Woo woo!"
Seeing Feng Xi 'er's power, the paper dolls retreated like bullied children and cried.
"Caw caw! Caw caw! "
Suddenly, the unpleasant caw of old crows rang out in the sky.
Along with the flapping of wings, crows made of paper circled in the sky and cawed, bringing a strange and ominous atmosphere.
"It's Elder Crow … He must have joined the bone scholar in order to break through the divine power …"
Seeing this, Chung Shen-soo sighed in his heart, "He came to the array probably because of the bone scholar's instructions … Have these rogue cultivators entered the array?!"
