Chapter 148: Muddy Swamp and Team Hunting

  Chapter 147

  Jungle hunter Terry waved the machete in his hand, constantly tearing apart vines and other plants that blocked the way ahead.

  There are no ready-made roads in the natural rainforest, and in many places the plants are so dense that a path needs to be opened by ourselves.

  This is also the most dangerous time. Many small extraordinary lives like to hide in this environment to launch sneak attacks.

  The moment Terry sensed danger with his plant sense, he instinctively used the Jungle Hunter's Jungle Flash and instantly appeared in the dense vegetation one meter behind, avoiding a sword-like tongue attacking from the right.

  The elemental wizard walking behind Terry raised his staff and cast a water prison spell.

  However, the extraordinary life hiding in the vines was not trapped. By the time Terry tore the vines with the scimitar in his hand, he could no longer find the extraordinary life that had just attacked him. Apparently, that thing escaped immediately after missing the attack.

  However, Rosen's extraordinary five senses allowed him to still hear the low frog croaking in the distance even in the heavy rain.

  Rosen instantly escaped into the shadows, flashing behind the owner of the frog croaking sound. The dragon-tooth dagger in his hand had already launched the bloodthirsty attack shared from the gray rat, leaving a trail of afterimages and hitting a palm-sized blue sword-tongue poison frog.

  The sharpness of the Dragon Tooth Dagger is such that it can easily tear through the defenses of almost all extraordinary life forms at Sequence 6.

  What's more, the defense of the Sequence 7 Sword-Tongue Poison Frog itself is the last among Sequence 7.

  The Sword-Tongue Poison Frog has an extraordinary tongue that can deal as much damage as possible. The terrifying toxicity contained in the sword-like tongue is enough to be fatal to Sequence 6.

  The most important thing is that this thing is very vengeful. If your sneak attack fails, it will lurk nearby and chase you relentlessly.

  At this time, the dragon tooth dagger pierced the skin on the back of the sword-tongue poison frog, immediately activating the bloodthirsty characteristic of the beast king, and began to suck the blood of the sword-tongue poison frog.

  Under normal circumstances, as long as the sword-tongue poison frog is not dead, it will fight back desperately.

  However, the sword-tongue poison frog trembled all over under Rosen's knife, and it did not put up any resistance until all the blood in its body was drained.

  Rosen immediately realized that the Beast King's bloodthirsty nature was not that simple.

  The Dragon Tooth Dagger incorporates the extraordinary essence of the Sea Dragon Beast King, which contains the power of the Beast King. The Sequence 7 Sword Tongue Poison Frog has no room for resistance against the Sequence 6 Beast King. It's just that no one knows what the upper limit of this deterrence is.

  Rosen teleported back to the team continuously, and the sword-tongue poison frog on the blade made Terry change color slightly.

  Although the sword-tongue poison frog does not have strong defense, it has strong jumping ability and speed.

  The kill was completed in such a short time, and it seemed like it was killed with one strike.

  This doesn't look like a trap hunter. Compared to this Lynn, he, a jungle hunter who is good at using a knife, seems fake.

  Rosen felt that the action was a bit slow, and suggested that everyone enter the mini castle inside the crown of the alchemical flying dragon.

  Then he was in charge of the driving and Terry was in charge of giving directions.

  Terry objected instinctively, but the next moment Rosen disappeared without a trace.

  No matter how hard the five members of the team tried, they couldn't find Rosen who was hiding in front of them.

  Terry finally gave in and led his team into the mini castle obediently.

  Rosen placed the shrunken alchemical flying dragon on his shoulder, then injected spirituality into it to activate the properties of the Dragon Tooth Dagger.

  The Dragon Tooth Dagger can make him completely invisible in water, and is enough to avoid the perception of those below Sequence 3.

  Although heavy rain is not in the water, it can still bring a certain stealth effect.

  At least below Sequence 4, few people can see through Rosen's invisibility.

  Rosen seemed to have become a part of the rain. Even after partially transforming himself and flying at ten times the speed of sound close to the treetops of the rainforest with the wings of Quetzalcoatl, he did not generate any air fluctuations, and even the rain that passed through could not cut off the rain curtain.

  Although there are heavy rains in the natural rainforest all year round, there are always sunny days after the rain.

  Therefore, traveling at ten times the speed of sound is only an ideal state. In reality, one still has to stop and go.

  At this time, Terry's role was reflected.

  When the rain stops and there are no thunderstorms, the magnetic field of the natural rainforest is still normal.

  The portal spell that was originally difficult for the elemental wizard to open can now be cast smoothly by locking on the approximate location.

  Basically, a portal can only take you a few hundred kilometers at most, and its efficiency is not much slower than Ron's stealth flight.

  However, you have to be careful when opening the portal, as the spatial fluctuations will alarm many extraordinary lives nearby.

  Every time I walk out of the portal, I can hunt down a few extraordinary lives.

  In the blink of an eye, half a month later, Rosen and his group of six advanced in a straight line for 600,000 miles before approaching the muddy swamp.

  Half of the time is spent on traveling, and the remaining half is spent on resting.

  Unless you have no choice and no opportunity, if your spiritual energy consumption exceeds 30%, you must recover it immediately.

  Otherwise, if you really encounter danger, you will be spiritually exhausted and unable to escape.

  Even so, reaching the muddy swamp in half a month was already a miracle, and usually it would take at least two months.

  The muddy swamp is relatively low in elevation, and it is the gathering point for all the rainwater from the rainforest within a radius of hundreds of miles.

  There used to be dense vegetation here, and one year a demigod Hydra was struck to death by thunder here.

  As a result, the plants within a hundred miles were turned into ashes, and the rainforest turned into a swamp. After the death of the Demi-God Hydra, many poisonous snakes nearby were attracted to share the corpse of the Demi-God Hydra. In the end, some of them inherited part of the Hydra's bloodline and became nine-headed monsters.

  Then thousands of years passed, and the nine-headed monsters became more and more numerous and gradually became the overlords within a radius of hundreds of miles.

  Hunting an ordinary Hydra is not difficult. As long as you act quickly and retreat quickly, it is not dangerous overall.

  However, hunting mutants is extremely difficult, especially the Hydra, which often hides in the swamp mud. It is difficult to find the already rare mutants, so you can basically only rely on luck to find mutants.

  Rosen had been following Terry's team in killing the Hydra for two days and could no longer bear to take chances.

  "I have a way to find the mutants as quickly as possible."

  During the break, Rosen put forward his opinions.

  "What is the solution?"

  Terry asked in surprise.

  "Concentrate on hunting down a large number of Hydras, so that the mutant Hydras can't help but come out."

  Rosen said something that made Terry instinctively shake his head.

  Everyone knows that the more you kill, the chance of encountering mutants will definitely increase significantly.

  However, the Hydra is a social supernatural being. Eight or ten are not a big deal, but a hundred or eighty Hydra would be enough to bury the entire team in the muddy swamp. However, after listening to Rosen's plan, Terry considered it over and over again and finally agreed.

  After half a day of reconnaissance, Terry found a suitable hunting spot.

  Rosen expanded the trap space and began to set up the fusion trap.

  There are thirty traps in total. The space trap is the main one to imprint the space fog, and then the element trap is integrated to imprint the parasitic spores mastered by Terry, and finally the time trap is integrated to imprint the time dust.

  After setting the trap, Rosen took out the pen of destiny and began to write the script of destiny.

  Soon, under the influence of the script of fate, the nine-headed monster was attracted by the giant-horned yellow sheep that was struggling on the edge of the swamp.

  The Hydra also has nine heads, but only one can survive at each sequence level.

  The rest are just for show and are basically distorted.

  At this time, a nine-headed monster with three heads of normal sequence 7 was sliding in the swamp as if it were walking on flat ground. It soon pounced in front of the giant-horned yellow sheep. One snake head bit the belly of the giant-horned yellow sheep and lifted it high, while the other two snake heads began to bite it left and right and feast on it.

  However, at this moment, the trap set by Rosen was activated.

  The power of the trap allowed the parasitic spores in the body of the giant-horned yellow sheep to successfully enter the body of the nine-headed monster. Under the power of the time dust, the parasitic speed of the parasitic spores increased by three times. The parasitism from the body made the nine-headed monster realize that this was a trap.

  However, faced with the spatial fog unfolding in the trap, the Hydra was unable to discern the direction and could only circle in the limited space.

  The hissing and wailing of the Hydra successfully attracted the attention of the nearby Hydra monsters.

  A dozen Hydras nearby slithered over, but were soon parasitized after entering the trap.

  The parasitic spores did not cause much damage in the early stages, but the itching and constant pain from within the body made it unbearable for the Hydra.

  More and more nine-headed monsters screamed and wailed, which attracted more and more nine-headed monsters.

  The torture of itching and pain aroused the ferocity of the nine-headed monsters, causing them to madly release elemental skills in the space fog.

  However, the direction is reversed, and most of the elemental skills fall on companions.

  On average, one trap is thirty meters in radius, and thirty traps are enough to trap dozens of nine-headed monsters at the same time.

  So many nine-headed monsters were killing each other and couldn't cause any damage to the trap.

  Because the parasitic spores will gradually enter the body with the air, and the space trap is hidden in the space interlayer, it is impossible to destroy the space trap that releases the space fog. One after another, nine-headed monsters begin to have their lives sucked dry by the parasitic spores.

  Rosen easily collected the bodies with the help of Void Scavenging, and then made room for the trap.

  At the beginning, there were nine-headed monsters coming as reinforcements continuously, but later, as many as went in disappeared, more and more nine-headed monsters began to gather, wandering back and forth near the trap, unable to move forward or backward.

  In the end, no one knew which nine-headed monster took the lead, but all of them began to release elemental skills remotely into the space fog.

  Various fire balls, water balls, ice balls, various rocks, ground spikes, ice and snow.

  Under the concentrated fire of the Hydra, all the Hydra in the trap died miserably.

  Finally, a group of nine-headed monsters turned the surrounding area upside down, but could not find any trace of the murderer.

  Of course it was impossible to find him. Rosen filled a huge tree hole with water in advance, and then he took the dragon tooth dagger and went into the tree hole pool. No matter how hard the Hydra searched, it was impossible to find his trace.

  Seeing that no mutants were found in the previous wave, Rosen moved to another place and set up the trap again.

  Over the next few days, the edge of the muddy swamp was filled with the screams of the Hydra.

  Hundreds of nine-headed monsters died, and more and more of them appeared in groups and no longer appeared alone.

  However, Rosen has found a nine-headed monster that is suspected to be a mutant, because this nine-headed monster can actually release thunder element skills.  

  After seeing thousands of nine-headed monsters, Rosen only saw this one that mastered the element of thunder.

  Rosen used Shadow Escape to quietly follow behind the nine-headed monster, ready to wait for the opportunity when the nine-headed monster was alone.

  While the nine-headed monster was resting, Rosen opened up a trap space not far away and released a fusion trap.

  The spatial transfer of the space trap, the shadow escape of the elemental trap, and finally the time acceleration of the time dust.

  After the trap was set, the entire trap was teleported under the nine-headed monster by Shadow Escape.

  The space transfer under the effect of time acceleration did not give the Nine-headed Monster any chance to escape, and directly transferred it to a clearing in the forest dozens of miles away from the muddy swamp.

  At this time, Terry and his team had already made preparations to surround and kill the Hydra mutant.

  The elemental wizard prepared a water prison spell in advance, which enveloped the Hydra the moment it appeared.

  The nine-headed monster instinctively released lightning, and the lightning fell into a water prison made of salt water. Amidst countless flashes of lightning, the nine-headed monster itself was the first to be electrocuted and twitched continuously, but the rock armor released immediately afterwards protected it from damage by the lightning.

  The nine-headed monster continuously hit the water prison. Its body was like a whip and the impact force of its head exceeded several times the speed of sound.

  Seeing that the Water Prison was about to be broken, the thirty Frost Nagas who had been prepared began to cast the Water Prison simultaneously.

  Thirty water prison spells were superimposed, and no matter how the Hydra struggled, it could not escape.

  At this time, the doctor began to inject paralyzing drugs into the water prison, and the shadow assassin could turn his body into shadow and enter the water prison to strike at any time.

  Regardless of whether they can cause effective damage or not, they should evacuate immediately. This will at least cause a lot of damage to the Hydra.

  Finally, Terry summoned his magical pet, the Frost Vine, and began to continuously release cold air to freeze the salt water inside the water prison.

  When Rosen arrived, the Hydra had been frozen inside the ice ball and was unable to resist.

  Rosen pulled out the dragon tooth dagger and chiseled a hole in the ice ball, then stabbed the dagger into the back of the Hydra. No matter how the Hydra struggled, it was of no avail. Soon it turned into a mummy and lost its life.

  After throwing it into the scavenging space for decomposition, Rosen obtained the heart of the nine-headed monster.

  The dragon tooth dagger avoided the heart when sucking blood, so the heart was still beating slightly.

  The gluttonous beast swallowed the mutant's heart in one gulp and began to digest it with its gluttonous stomach, continuously incorporating the attributeless elemental power mastered by the Hydra into the elemental trap making technique, and finally felt that it was not enough, so it threw in the extraordinary source of energy as well.

  Finally, the elemental trap making technique surpassed the limit and was successfully upgraded from LV2 to LV3.

  Rosen is ready to make another effort, this time he wants to capture the Sequence 6 Hydra mutant alive.

  But this meant going deeper into the muddy swamp, and no matter how much he offered, Terry firmly refused.

  It's good to make money, but the prerequisite is to have the life to spend it.

  In the end, both sides took a step back, and Rosen had to go deeper into the muddy swamp on his own.

  As long as he could teleport the Sequence 6 Hydra mutant outside the Muddy Water Swamp, Terry would do his best to hunt down the Sequence 6 Hydra mutant together. This would already involve considerable risks, and Rosen was very satisfied with this.

  For the next half month, Rosen prayed for heavy rain every day.

  As long as it rains, he can move freely in the muddy swamp with the dragon tooth dagger.

  However, the rain was so heavy that the Hydra hid in the swamp.

  Lawson couldn't control the rainfall, so the harvest was not great after half a month.

  But Rosen hasn't been doing nothing these days.

  While the self-portrait clone was outside searching for prey during the heavy rain, his original self was also painting in the Void Gallery.

  Rosen painted two pictures on the canvas of his mind. The first was a muddy swamp with drizzling rain, and the second was a picture of a nine-headed monster with peerless beauty painted in the aesthetic sense of the nine-headed monster. If neither of these worked, he would have to search slowly.

  Rosen left the Void Gallery and looked up at the blue sky with white clouds above his head.

  The image of rain falling in the muddy swamp was instantly projected onto the sky, with a dark cloud appearing locally and dropping a steady drizzle.

  The Hydra hates heavy rains, which turn swamps into muddy puddles.

  But the nine-headed monsters like light rain very much. Most of them came out when the light rain covered an area of ​​one thousand meters in radius.

  Rosen, now invisible in the rain, telepathically projects the second painting to the nearby Hydra.

  In the consciousness of all the Hydra monsters, a beautiful snake suddenly appeared, which made all the male Hydra monsters excited. This beautiful snake showed that it looked down on ordinary Hydra monsters and only mutated Hydra monsters were qualified to give birth to baby snakes with it.

  For a moment, snakes were dancing wildly within a thousand-meter radius, but unfortunately, there was not a single mutant among the dozens of nine-headed monsters.

  Rosen continued to change locations, going deeper into the muddy swamp to seduce the mutants with light rain and beautiful snakes.

  After two days of searching, they finally found a mutant that mastered the dark element.

  Ordinary nine-headed monsters only control the elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth and poison. Those that control other elements are most likely mutants.

  After Rosen set the trap, he used the Mind Canvas to project and render a beautiful snake.

  The nine-headed mutant rushed towards the beautiful snake with saliva dripping from its mouth. Before it could become entangled with the beautiful snake, it was teleported to the battlefield prepared in advance by the time-accelerated Sequence 6 level space transfer.

  The self-portrait clone was responsible for activating the trap, and Rosen himself also participated in the siege of the nine-headed monster this time.

  The Water Prison Technique could not trap the Hydra mutant of Sequence 6, so the moment the space transfer ended, the God-Slaying Spear and Crossbow had already predicted and fired a nightmare element four-phase bomb, directly targeting the spirituality and pulling the Hydra's consciousness into a nightmare.

  If it was an ordinary nine-headed monster, it would have lost all ability to resist by now.

  However, the blood derived from the Hydra in this mutant species has undergone atavistic evolution. It not only has mastered more elemental attributes, but even its spiritual consciousness can split into multiple parts like the Hydra.

  At this time, the consciousness of the first of the four snake heads was pulled into the nightmare, and the remaining three consciousnesses were not completely pulled into the nightmare and lost the ability to resist.

  But to some extent, the remaining three were a little groggy.

  Seizing the opportunity, the doctor stabbed the three syringes in his hand into the remaining three snake heads like darts.

  The medicine in the syringe has a strong anesthetic effect, enough to make the Hydra temporarily lose its perception of pain.

  The shadow assassin instantly brought three shadow clones and eight daggers around the second snake head of the Hydra. They tore open the scales piece by piece along the gaps between the scales like a butcher cutting up an ox, and finally tried their best to cut off the snake head.

  Jungle hunter Terry, the vines around him also wrapped around the third snake head at the same time.

  These vines are filled with special oils with super strong burning effects. The elemental wizard who cooperated with Terry used a Pyroblast to ignite these oils. The surface of a snake head was carbonized under the burning of the Pyroblast, and finally Terry cut off the snake head.

  At this moment, the fourth head of the Hydra finally regained consciousness.

  The moment it regained consciousness, a halo of fire gushed out from the snake's head and continued to spread.

  The shadow assassin, who was almost exhausted at this time, couldn't dodge at all. In the moment of life and death, the paladin stood in front of him and raised his shield.

  Terry and the Elemental Wizard, who still had some strength left, were dodging the fire halo while helping the Shadow Assassin retreat.

  Rosen instantly turned into Quetzalcoatl and spit out a special nightmare shackle from his mouth.

  Normal nightmare shackles are made of spiritual energy and possess the basic properties of taming, sharing, sealing and nightmare.

  However, through the painter's enhanced blending, Rosen integrated light and metallic properties into the nightmare shackles, making them the master.

  Such nightmare shackles weaken the ability to pull the target's consciousness into a nightmare and strengthen the hardness and speed of the shackles themselves.

  The nightmare shackles that spread like light did not give the Hydra monster any time to dodge and had already tied up its fourth snake head. The nightmare shackles continued to extend, using the rope art to the extreme to tie up the Hydra monster bit by bit from head to body.

  During this time, the nine-headed monster's flexible body struggled frantically to dodge, but it would have been better if it didn't dodge. The more it dodged, the more it felt like it was being tied up.

  Because Rosen activated the Eye of Time, he predicted the Hydra's dodge route in advance through his vision three seconds later. Then the nightmare shackles on the surface forced the Hydra to dodge, while the other part of the nightmare shackles hidden in the dark waited for the Hydra to crash into it.

  The nine-headed monster, whose whole body was tied up, struggled frantically, but the nightmare shackles that were integrated with the power of the Morning Star God were indestructible.

  Rosen continued to integrate the power of gluttony into the nightmare shackles, growing charming little mouths on them.

  Instead of biting the Hydra's body, it sucked its physical strength.

  With the birth of the Gluttonous Stomach, Rosen's control over gluttony became stronger and stronger.

  Now, not only the physical body, but also invisible physical strength can be absorbed by the ability of gluttony.

  As his spirituality continues to grow, his gluttony will reach a point where he can even consume souls and pain.

  As the nine-headed monster became weaker and weaker, Rosen released the gluttonous beast and it continued to expand.

  It swallowed the Hydra in one final bite, and then imprisoned the Hydra, which had lost its ability to resist, into its gluttonous stomach.

  When his elemental trap making skills reach the limit of LV3, he will be able to kill the Hydra mutant imprisoned in the stomach of gluttony.

  Terry looked at Rosen with some fear. As a fellow Hunter Sequence 7, this trap hunter named Lynn Wells was too terrifying.

  Even without their help, it would be possible for Lin En to capture the Sequence 6 Hydra alive.

  After successfully completing the mission, Terry rested for a while and then led the team away.

  Rosen did not leave with them. There are countless extraordinary lives and countless treasures in the natural rainforest.

  He just didn't know the way to the muddy swamp, but he could find the way out.

  After finally getting deep into the natural rainforest, now that Terry and the others are gone, he doesn't need to continue disguising himself as a hunter. This is a good opportunity for him to verify here what he can do if he gives it his all.

  Rosen released the mechanical mount, drove it into the shadows, and prepared to go deep into the muddy swamp.

  Just a few days ago, the virtual world in his left eye had successfully merged with the photographic space.

  Now, regardless of whether he has spirituality or not, his left eye can easily scan all matter within a radius of 30,000 meters, and then accurately distinguish spiritual matter from non-spiritual matter, and finally copy everything scanned in a virtual world like a virtual world.

  Rosen was in the muddy swamp, and the virtual world pupil technique of his left eye was of course scanning the muddy swamp.

  He discovered that deep in the muddy swamp, there was a place with a high concentration of spirituality.

  If nothing unexpected happens, that place must have extraordinary resources of a fairly high level.
