Rotten Mushroom Swamp was the southernmost mysterious territory of the Underdark.
Because of the Snake Witches, most of the people who trespassed on this land had disappeared forever.
The Snake Witch had turned this place into a land of death with traps everywhere. She herself lived in seclusion in a small wooden hut in the middle of the swamp, studying every day how to free herself from the curse of the Witch King.
Unfortunately, she could never lift the curse.
Because today, Ma Wen was going to kill her!
…
Marvin had never been a person who liked to kill the innocent, but it was a different story when it came to villains like the Snake Witch.
In Fernand's history, this woman was considered to be a snake and scorpion.
Because she failed to seize power from the Witch King, she betrayed Anzetz and told the enemy about the headquarters of Anzetz, causing Anzetz to suffer heavy losses. After that, she entered the Underdark and tried to overthrow the regime. However, because the man she supported was having a normal relationship with other women, she used her best poison to kill the man and caused the whole city to fall into the fear of poison and plague.
At least three thousand innocent people died in her hands.
According to Fernand's history, more than three hundred nobles died because of the Snake Witch's poison in Mottled City. As for the lowly commoners and slaves, there were countless of them.
As a famous big city in the southern part of the Underdark, Mottled City never recovered from the setback and soon fell into decline.
In the end, the city became a dead city. The people who used to live there left Mottled City and basically migrated to the Rosen Fortress.
All of this was done by the Snake Witch.
During the confrontation with the Witch King, she tried to collude with powerful foreign creatures, but she was seen through by the Witch King.
The foreign creatures were exiled into the void, and she was cursed.
She was originally a woman with a delicate face, but once she left the swamp, she would become extremely ugly.
If she was exposed to the sun, her skin would even begin to fester.
Because of the curse, no one liked her. Everyone who saw her for the first time would feel an inexplicable hatred.
This was the punishment given to her by the Witch King.
For thousands of years, the Snake Witch had been lurking in the shadows.
The power of hatred was powerful, and she was close to undoing the curse of the former Witch King.
In the game, players could choose to avenge the Lamia Witches.
However, this quest was usually accepted by players with evil tendencies. If they succeeded, the wrath of An Zeye would soon descend upon them.
The crazed Snake Witch was about to carry out a series of revenge plans.
Unfortunately, in his previous life, the Snake Witch's quest was interrupted by another group of people.
They accepted the reverse quest and obtained the specific information about the Snake Witch from the Witches of Anzac. Then, they arrived here and killed her.
It was also the exposure of this mission that allowed Ma Wen to understand everything about the Snake Witch.
This woman was very powerful. In fact, if she wasn't so vicious, she would be a very good talent.
Her alchemy and toxicology had reached the pinnacle, and if she could be used well, she would be a considerable fortune.
Unfortunately, history had proven that this woman wasn't willing to submit to others, and she wasn't an easy character to convince.
Ma Wen came here for her alchemy skills, and at the same time, for the alchemy tools in her hands.
As for killing her, it was just to get rid of a problem for An Zeye.
After all, Hathaway was now the Witch King of An Zeye. It was only natural for Ma Wen to help her get rid of an eyesore.
…
The Orchid Mushroom Swamp was full of traps, but Ma Wen knew of a small path that could safely go around to the center of the swamp.
The small path was actually a back road. They had to go around the demon city and enter the swamp from the wild south.
The Snake Witch thought that no one could cross the River Styx, so she designed this small path to leave in the future.
Unfortunately, Ma Wen, who was well-versed in the game strategy of his previous life, came to this world.
She was destined to be killed in this swamp without anyone knowing!
…
A faint smell of decay wafted in the air.
The will-o '-wisps and the occasional bubbling of explosive fungi made people wary.
On the muddy path, Ma Wen activated Stealth and slowly walked over.
He knew that he had to be careful.
The Snake Witch was a very cunning person. She had set up many traps and surveillance devices on this path.
If he wasn't careful, he could easily trigger the traps, and the Snake Witch would be prepared in advance.
The Snake Witch was already a legendary figure in the Third Age, and had lived to this day, so she naturally had many skills.
Ma Wen's confidence in killing the Snake Witch was built on the basis of the element of surprise.
Once the opponent was prepared, the difficulty would increase exponentially.
So he was very careful.
"Living in a place like this all day long, even a normal person would be psychopathic …"
Ma Wen sighed in his heart.
A crow landed on a haystack, and Ma Wen stopped in his tracks.
The crow's eyes were red. It pecked at the haystack, and from the gap, a thick thread of flesh was pulled out!
Only then did Ma Wen see that it was the body of a dead lizard.
He still did not move.
It was obvious that this crow was one of the Snake Witch's surveillance creatures. Although Marvin's Stealth was high, he would be easily exposed if he were to move around in front of such a creature that possessed intelligence.
There was only one way to deal with this situation.
Wait!
As a legendary Rogue, Ma Wen certainly knew the importance of waiting, and he had the patience to wait.
He had to wait for the crow to fly away, and then take the opportunity to jump over the haystack in front of him.
The haystack would float, and if he moved away, he didn't know how long it would take for it to float over again.
In this swamp, it was easy to be detected by the Snake Witch if he used displacement skills.
Ma Wen had to be low-key to the extreme.
However, looking at the distance between himself and the haystack, Ma Wen could not help but scratch his head.
"It seems a bit far."
"If I jump hard, I can use [Second Jump], but that kind of displacement skill that will touch the Void is very likely to trigger the alarms all over the air …"
Ma Wen silently thought about the way forward.
However, at this time, he suddenly realized something!
"Wait … my Agility …"
"My body, when did it break through!?"
When his eyes fell on the data bar, he suddenly became happy and surprised.
Because at this moment, in the Agility column of the six attributes, it was written —
[Agility: 35] (Super Agility)
