Winter Douluo

"I didn't expect that there are quite a lot of medicinal herbs around here!" Xiao Wu sighed as he walked into the igloo.

"I didn't expect that in addition to the antidote, I also found all the medicinal materials needed for the wound medicine and the breath-absorbing medicine." Tang San, who was behind Xiao Wu, also said.

Oscar's eyes lit up and he said: "It's a good thing. Last time we were in the grassland, we seemed to have used up all the medicine, and there was no replenishment along the way..."

After that battle, each of Yu Tianlin and the others had a lot of scars on their bodies, and the wound medicine Tang San had stored in the woods was even somewhat insufficient.

At that time, Oscar gave up his share, because compared to others, Oscar's injury was the lightest. He was the kind who could recover on his own after eating a few more recovery sausages.

One of the factors is naturally because Yu Tianlin and the others protect Oscar well, and the other reason is that Oscar has always activated the soul bone skill - [White Jade].

There are only a handful of soul beast attacks that can break through the [White Bi] protective barrier. After all, they are all century-old soul beasts.

Since then, due to their caution, the six Yu Tianlins have indeed experienced fewer battles, and everyone has basically not been injured, but the medicine has not been replenished. To be honest, Oscar still feels A bit bottomless.

Now that they are better and their wounds have been replenished, their strategy of reducing combat will not change, but at least they no longer have to worry about sudden serious injuries.

"Don't worry, there are plenty of herbs this time. I feel it's enough for us to use until the end of the assessment." Tang San replied after placing the herbs in categories on the ice bed.

Not only was this the first time for Yu Tianlin and the others to come to the swamp, it was also Tang San's first time, no matter in the past life or in this life, so Tang San didn't know that the swamp was not only full of fiber fabrics and nectar plants, but also natural medicinal plants. treasure house.

But when they entered the swamp, Tang San would discover this sooner or later.

"If possible, I still think you should try not to get into the water. It's too dangerous." Yu Tianlin insisted.

"But the problem is, we have nothing to do!" Ma Hongjun said.

While Tang San and Xiao Wu were looking for medicinal materials, Yu Tianlin and the others were also busy and had a heated discussion on how to cross the swamp. Each point of view was put forward, but each one was rejected, so that When Tang San and Xiao Wu come back, this matter has not yet been decided.

"Actually, I have always had an idea, but..." Yu Tianlin said hesitantly.

"Tianlin, just tell me. If you have any questions, we can discuss them together. It's better than just sitting around." Looking at Yu Tianlin's appearance, Dai Mubai patted him on the shoulder and said.

Looking at the eyes of others looking over, Yu Tianlin finally expressed his thoughts.

In fact, it is not very profound, and is even a bit simple and crude.

It was Yu Tianlin who came up with it based on himself.

If the [Ice Void Flash] method of leading the way is based on soul skills, then Yu Tianlin's new idea is based on the soul power of the Black Scale Ice Dragon itself.

Thinking of the first characteristic of Yu Tianlin's soul power, it must be cold, and it is extremely cold.

This resulted in Yu Tianlin being able to use his soul power to freeze the swamp water, and then they could walk on the ice.

The idea is indeed simple, but there are many problems.

First of all, there is the problem of the load-bearing of the ice. Although the six Yu Tianlin are only in their teens, they are not much different in terms of height.

It was unrealistic to freeze the entire swamp with Yu Tianlin's strength, but it was not easy to create an ice surface that could bear the weight of six people.

Moreover, this sudden change in the environment will definitely attract some spirit beasts, so Yu Tianlin must be ready to create battle terrain at any time.

This is what Yu Tianlin is worried about. He is naturally confident that he can quickly create a large area of ​​​​ice to deal with the battle, but the problem is that if the ice is broken by the aftermath of the battle, the situation of other people will become very worse than on the grassland. The kind that would be worse than fighting.

When expressing his thoughts, Yu Tianlin naturally listed these concerns one by one.

"Although there are many problems, this is indeed the most feasible suggestion so far." Dai Mubai said while looking at several people.

"Then think about whether we can avoid some problems and reduce the risk to a level we can bear." Tang San suggested.

Just now, Ma Hongjun also briefly explained to Tang San and Xiao Wu the suggestions that the four of them rejected. Like Dai Mubai, Tang San also believed that the last option was more feasible.

Regarding the issue of cold air, none of the six mentioned asking Yu Tianlin/himself to use solidified ice instead.

The ice solidified by Yu Tianlin does have two types: the cold air is released outwards and the cold air is restrained, but they also need to consider the speed of travel. It is not a big problem to let Yu Tianlin use his soul power to condense water into ice all day long, but if it is replaced by Solidifying ice will increase consumption by a huge amount.

By then, it would be good if they could travel for half a day. This is considering that Yu Tianlin can reverse the solidified ice he walked through and convert it back into soul power.

Another point is that I naturally don’t want to put too much burden on Yu Tianlin. This is an assessment for the six of them, don’t make it like it is just a test for Yu Tianlin.

The method that Yu Tianlin came up with was to narrow the ice road. This would naturally reduce the area that could be affected. The problem was that their formation would be stretched.

Dai Mubai's suggestion was exactly the opposite of Yu Tianlin's. His idea was to make the ice road bigger at the beginning. If possible, it would be better to build a auxiliary road next to it.Since we already know that soul beasts will be attracted no matter what, we will increase the source of attraction. This will not only confuse the soul beasts, but also allow them to notice in advance and prepare for battle.

However, the two people's suggestions also have the same point, that is, to move forward at full speed. Even if there is a soul beast destroying the ice not far from them, as long as it is not to the point of having to fight, he will just move forward!

Tang San's suggestion was to seek stability instead. In the process of advancing, arrange some blocking traps, and when passing by the shore, leave the mark of Yu Tianlin on it. If it really attracts a large group of spirit beasts, then let Yu Tianlin led them past.

Afterwards, Xiao Wu, Ma Hongjun and Oscar also shared their thoughts. Yu Tianlin and the others absorbed and integrated the advantages of all the suggestions, and finally discussed an effective strategy before evening.

"While the sky is still bright, let's test the thickness of the ice on the edge of the swamp." Oscar suggested after looking at the sky.

“By the way, we’ll also settle tonight’s dinner.”

This test did not take much time. In just three or four times, Yu Tianlin found the most suitable thickness.After casually dispersing the ice, Yu Tianlin and Dai Mubai went to look for prey. As for Oscar, Ma Hongjun accompanied him to catch fish by the swamp.

It may be that the environment in the swamp is more suitable for fish survival. The fish here are far richer than the river in the canyon.

Tang San and Xiao Wu were still collecting wood nearby, and looking for medicinal materials, wild vegetables, berries and so on.

Perhaps because he was thinking about the difficult journey ahead, Oscar made a particularly sumptuous dinner that night, and because of the sufficient seasoning (found near the swamp), the taste was not bad.

But this swamp is indeed difficult, and it was not smooth from the beginning.

After marching for two hours, Yu Tianlin and the six men had completely penetrated into the swamp.The originally open field of vision is also occupied by a variety of aquatic plants, the most common of which are reeds.

There is nothing wrong with the reed alone, but there is an epiphytic insect on the reed - the caddis fly!

Caddis flies originally grew in reeds in mire swamps. They are not large in size. Even a century-old caddis fly does not exceed [-] centimeters in length.

But even this little thing has a reputation comparable to that of spotted termites.This is not because of how powerful the caddisfly's attack power is, although it is not low, but the caddisfly is most famous for its toxicity!

It speaks volumes that it lives in swamp reeds but is named caddisfly.

The poison of caddis flies can cause people and animals to enter a state of catalepsy, like stone sculptures after being glanced at by Medusa.

Although the poison is not fatal, if you fall into the swamp stiffly, the only thing waiting for you is death!

The caddisfly's attack method is to spray venom. Although the distance is not very far, the caddisfly can shorten the distance with the enemy by spinning silk.

Looking at it this way, it doesn't seem to be a big problem. As long as you avoid the reeds in advance, the silk spun by the caddisfly cannot fall ten meters away. With the Ice Spirit Eyes, Yu Tianlin has this ability.

But the key is that in many cases, caddis flies can still cling to broken branches of reeds and drift in the water with the reeds.The small sheath made of silk and reed leaves is its mobile house. It can also be said that the caddisfly can travel in the swamp with its portable cabin.

However, although it took Yu Tianlin and the six people a lot of effort to deal with caddis flies, it could not hinder their progress. After all, most caddis flies still lived comfortably among the reeds, and these little guys were not very aggressive. Gao, the type that as long as you don't mess with me, I won't talk to you.

As long as you don't rush into the reeds, you basically won't be surrounded by caddis flies.

So caddisflies are just the appetizer in the swamp, and the main event is yet to come.

Soon the six of Yu Tianlin encountered the second type of troublesome soul beast in the swamp, which was the Golden Thread Leech.

As a leech-like soul beast that survives by sucking the blood of living things, the Golden Thread Leech not only has all the advantages of leeches, but also adds more attack methods on this basis.

Compared with the golden leech, the caddisfly in front can be described as petite even if it is a century old.

As long as it becomes a ten-year-old soul beast, the body length of the Golden Thread Leech is at least fifty centimeters. Of course, this is calculated when the Golden Thread Leech is stretched to its longest state.

As an aerobic soft-bodied organism, golden leech naturally cannot survive in the body like a parasite. However, when the size is large enough, golden leech can in turn swallow the whole organism into the body. After sucking up all the body fluids, it can then The useless mummy-like residue is expelled from the body.

The paralyzing toxin of golden thread leeches is also very powerful. In this way, when a small golden thread leech clings to your body surface and sucks blood, you will not notice anything strange, while a golden thread leech is large enough to swallow you. , you can also swallow it directly from the beginning after you are paralyzed to the point of being unable to resist.

As long as it is swallowed, it will be difficult for any creature to escape from it unless there is a huge difference in strength.

Another disgusting thing about the Golden Thread Leech is the slippery skin. While it is not easy to be captured, it is also difficult to break through with ordinary weapons. Even some soul skills have a high probability of being slipped away. It can be said that the Golden Thread Leech will destroy soft-bodied creatures. Features applied to the extreme.

As a cold-blooded creature, the golden leech is extremely sensitive to heat sources. Coupled with its extremely fast swimming speed, as long as it is sensed by the golden leech, it will be found in less than a minute.

Fortunately, Yu Tianlin's ice and Ma Hongjun's fire were more restrained than the golden leech, so it was a near miss.But except for Yu Tianlin and Ma Hongjun, everyone else basically had nothing to do with the swarms of golden leech.

Whether it is Dai Mubai's sharp tiger claws or Xiao Wu's soft skills, it is difficult to be effective against golden leech, and Xiao Wu is also psychologically disgusted with using soft skills on slippery golden leech.

The golden leech is not the only soul beast that can suck blood. In the evening, Yu Tianlin encountered another soul beast - Aedes albopictus.

In fact, they should have thought long ago that there would definitely be no shortage of mosquitoes in an environment like a swamp.

Compared with golden-threaded leeches, the advantage of Aedes albopictus is that it can fly. However, after Yu Tianlin and six people entered the igloo, and Tang San subsequently sprinkled a large amount of insect repellent around the igloo, the Aedes albopictus's The problem can be considered solved, provided that we survive the period from late afternoon to rest.

These can all be used as foreplay for the swamp terrain. After entering the second swamp, Yu Tianlin and the six finally met the real owner - the tentacle!

There were all kinds of tentacles, and Yu Tianlin even saw one with purple skin and white spots and spikes at the end.This was almost exactly the same as the swamp monster in a survival game he had played in his previous life, and it even gave Yu Tianlin some novel feelings.

But after actually coming into contact with these tentacles, Yu Tianlin realized that he had been careless. These tentacles were even more evil and difficult to deal with than the similar ones in the comics that his classmates dragged him to read in his previous life.

After that, Yu Tianlin and the others didn't know how they broke out of the swamp. Anyway, after leaving the swamp, the six of them cleansed their bodies several times and decided to seal this memory in the deepest part of the brain forever. It's best to forget.

When they took a break and reviewed the game later, Yu Tianlin and the others felt that this was a battle no less than a battle on the grassland. The swamp was just as deadly as the grassland. Oscar had always thought that the swamp was even better.

However, Yu Xiaogang is not that unkind. The only terrains with this level of difficulty are grassland and swamp. The two terrains after the swamp are relatively simple, which at least made the six of them breathe a sigh of relief.

(Maybe there is no similar terrain in this area?)

. . . . . .

"Didn't we agree not to mention the swamp? Oscar, do you still want to go back and experience it?" Xiao Wu was very dissatisfied that Oscar's words brought her back to that memory.

Because of Oscar's words, several people's memories of the previous month were aroused. At this point, Oscar was treated appropriately for his unreasonable words.

"It's better to rest early. I really hope that after we go out, Teacher Yu can let us go back to Xingdou Town to rest. Even if it only lasts for two or three days, I will die with no regrets!" After teaching Oscar, Dai Mubai lay on the ice bed, Looking up at Hanbao's chandelier.
