Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 490 Murloc
At night, Rhodes came to the place where the mercenaries died again.

The silvery moonlight sprinkled on the river, shattering with the flow of the river.

Rhodes stood in place and used the mage ball, without sensing the breath of any powerful creatures.

"I think there is still a need for ordinary people to be bait." Misel on the side said.

Rhodes shook his head: "Both of us hide our aura, and we look no different from ordinary people. That creature is still very likely to appear."

As long as Rhodes activates his inner strength, he can cover up the aura emanating from the huge magic power and spiritual power in his body, and the aura emanating from the inner strength can be almost completely hidden as long as he pays a little attention.

As for Michelle, she was able to control her aura a long time ago.

"If the creature doesn't appear within half an hour, let's go back and let Alvin come here and stare at it." Rhodes said, looking at Michel who was yawning.

Alvin has the strength of the fourth level, even if he can't deal with the monster in the river, it is definitely not a big problem to escape.

If the monster in the river was so powerful that even Alvin couldn't escape, then it didn't need to sneak out at night, it could completely slaughter all the small villages by the river in broad daylight.

The breath left by the creature in the river reminded Rhodes of the sea monster he encountered in the conscious world, arousing his curiosity, so he ran to the river to squat at night.

Rhodes sat on the river bank anywhere, admiring the beautiful night scenery around him.

There is no industrial pollution in this world, and countless bright stars are shining in the night sky.

"It seems that there have been more monsters everywhere in recent years." Sitting next to Rhodes, Michelle yawned again.

"Maybe the concentration of magic power in the environment is increasing." Rhodes thought of another world, that is, five years later, the return of the dragon not only increased the concentration of magic power in the north, but also the Roman Empire in the south.

Many professions that disappeared before may reappear because of this, such as demon hunters and exorcists.

"Anyway, I don't feel much change." Michelle yawned again.

"Are you sleepy now?" Rhodes noticed that Michelle seemed to be very sleepy. Usually, she is still very energetic at this time.

"A little bit." Michelle nodded.

"Could it be that monster's fault?" Rhodes stood up, but he didn't feel any magic aura.

"It's possible, maybe it has some special talents, such as spellcasting that doesn't produce magic power fluctuations, or what it uses doesn't use magic." Missel also stood up and said with force.

"But even if it's the same as what you said, for example, it uses grassland witchcraft that we haven't seen before, we should also be aware that it is casting spells on us." Rhodes also felt a little sleepy.

He felt that even if his perception ability was not particularly strong, if someone cast a spell on him, he would definitely be able to detect it.

"If the monster in the river is an evil god, many things that you think are unreasonable can be realized on it." Michelle shook his head.

Rhodes seems to have heard the black cat mention that many evil gods can use things in the conscious world to affect the real world, such as summoning a creature that does not exist at all, or making an error in the world rules of an area.

"Then I'll go to the river to have a look." Rhodes said.

He felt that even if he met an evil god in the river, it should be unlikely that his life would be in danger.

If there was an evil god in the river, and it was very powerful, it would definitely not have been hiding and not daring to show its face.

"Let's wait until the daytime tomorrow. When the sun is here, my strength will increase a lot. Even if there is a battle, I can definitely help you." Misel said nervously.

"It's okay, if you think I'm in danger, you can make some noise, the chief scholar will definitely sense it." Rhodes took off his shirt, took a deep breath and jumped into the river.

Now he can use internal force or magic power to maintain the normal activities of various organs in his body. Even if he does not breathe for a period of time, there is no big problem, so he is not worried that he will be entangled by monsters in the river and suffocate to death.

After entering the water, Rhodes found that the river was not as clear as it appeared on the surface. Swimming in the river felt similar to swimming in mud, and the resistance was very high.

The next moment, he heard a strange sound beside his ears, as if someone was shouting, the sound was very soft, which made him feel creepy.

Rhodes felt that he had stepped on something, and he subconsciously used a simple magic, lighting.

A group of soft white light flew out of Rhodes' hands and attached to the objects under Rhodes' feet, illuminating the surroundings.

Rhodes gasped after seeing the scene at the bottom of his feet. The hard feeling under his feet didn't mean he was stepping on the stones at the bottom of the river.

Under his feet were broken bones, which piled up spectacularly.

Not only humans, but also other creatures, most of them look like fish in the river, and these fish are very large in size.

Rhodes felt the coldness behind him, he turned around quickly, and saw a half-man, half-fish creature standing behind him.

This creature looks a bit like the sea tribe, which also belongs to the murlocs, but it is uglier than the sea tribe.

The sea people that Rhodes had seen in the conscious world were all like tropical fish. Although they were very ugly, they were just eye-catching. The creature in front of him looked like a humanoid deep-sea fish.

Probably because of the uncanny valley effect, Rhodes felt an inexplicable sense of fear after seeing this creature, and subconsciously wanted to stay away from it.

The murloc was suspended in the river and looked at Rhodes and let out a creepy laugh.

It's not your fault for being ugly, it's your fault for being scary!
Rhodes used his internal energy to punch the murloc in front of him.

It was like detonating a bomb in the water. With Rhodes' punch, the surrounding river water formed a vacuum around Rhodes.

Misaier on the shore saw the splash of water several meters high, with a worried expression on his face.

Not long after, she saw Rhodes climbing up from the river carrying an ugly humanoid creature.

The golden light shone on Misaier's hand, turning into a chain to entangle the murloc that Rhodes threw on the ground.

"It's really weak, it can't even catch my punch." Rhode rubbed his hands on the withered grass on the ground while talking.

There was a slippery layer of mucus on this deep-sea murloc. Rhodes rubbed a little on his hand just now, which made him very sick.

He lowered his head and smelled his right hand, the stench emanating from it made him feel even more sick.
