Transmigrated into a fallen priest, Mark clutches the Forbidden Scripture that would make a saint’s face turn black in his left hand, and a cross blessed by the Abyss in his right.
When the...
Until this moment, Mark and the others had never thought that the only person who followed them into the Rotten Bone Swamp was One-Eye Pabbie.
It’s not that Mark didn’t consider that One-Eyed Pabbi was afraid that the assassination of the Holy Light Church members would be exposed and he didn’t dare to let his team members follow him into the Warcraft Mountains.
Although their three-person team is not a complete adventure group, it has everything including melee, ranged, support, and output.
It can be regarded as an adventure team with a relatively balanced configuration.
In addition, the professional level registered by Monica in the Adventurer's Guild is also the more difficult third-level assassin.
In the opinion of Mark and the other two, no matter how stupid that one-eyed Pabbi was, he would at least contact two helpers to go into the mountains together before attacking them.
So this time, although he sensed that the enemy had entered his territory.
Mark did not activate the vampire rose seeds planted by [Holy Light Protection■], but followed Anna and Monica and pretended nothing happened.
Continue to rush to the next location where ghost mushrooms may grow as indicated on the mission map.
A day passed quietly while completing the task of collecting ghost mushroom spores.
As the sky darkened again, the miasma of the Rotten Bone Swamp surged into a gray-green wave behind the three people.
As Anna corked the fourth full crystal bottle, Mark also turned his gaze to the northwest.
The person whose body was implanted with the vampire rose seed has never left the range of his [Holy Light Protection].
Therefore, the vampire rose seeds in his body remained in a latent state and were not discovered at all.
Mark can also know where he is at any time.
"This is the third time."
Mark whispered to Anna and Monica, "Every time we fight with the monsters, that guy sneaks up on us. This is the third time he's come within fifteen meters of us!"
I don’t know what hiding methods the person hiding in the dark used. At the beginning, Anna could still hear the other party’s movements.
But the other party seemed to have discovered Anna's inadvertent defensive reaction, and later only Mark was able to determine his location through the vampire rose seeds.
Monica's dagger flickered between her fingers, her narrowed eyes reflected in the swamp water. "Since he was able to approach us silently, it proves that the stalker is more familiar with the terrain than we thought."
"It won't be good for him to continue going deeper into the Rotten Bone Swamp. He should take action soon."
The other party followed them closely for a whole day, but Mark did not notice the second follower appear.
Or the other members of the other party are extremely vigilant and are always hanging far behind.
Or there really is only one person on the other side.
But no matter what the situation is, the other party will not have the patience to continue waiting.
Tonight, in this Rotten Bone Swamp, is the best time for the other party to take action!
And this is also the best opportunity for Mark and his team of three to counterattack and kill the enemy!
Since they had already entered the Rotten Bone Swamp, it was impossible for the three of them to turn back to the area outside the swamp under the cover of night.
So the three of them chose an area with relatively dense trees, cut down a few tree trunks and built a temporary camp in mid-air.
The trees in the Bone Swamp are much sparser than those outside. In order to avoid attracting the monsters in the Bone Swamp by making a fire, the three people simply decided not to make a campfire.
I had dinner with cold water and some dry food.
The night watch was carried out alternately by Mark and Xiao Mu, Anna and Monica.
The three of them didn't need to be too wary of the other monsters in the Rotten Bone Swamp. The only one they really needed to be wary of was the tracker hiding in the dark.
The other party has been wading in the mud of the Rotten Bone Swamp for a day.
No matter how familiar he is with the environment here, he would not choose to stay in the mud forever.
The three-person team was waiting for the moment when the other party would make a move.
And if the other party can endure for a whole night without making a move, then Mark and the others will take the initiative and take down the other party as quickly as possible.
Because if that is the case, it proves that the person behind the other party may not be just a small adventure group.
The other party is waiting for a large number of support before they will be patient enough to waste so much time in the mud.
When Anna and Monica lay down with their clothes on.
Mark sat cross-legged on the wooden frame, stroked the cross and inserted it into the mud below the camp. The colorful black light flowing under the surface of the holy light shield quietly spread and enveloped his body.
Xiao Mu lay on Mark's shoulder with sparkling eyes and blew bubbles.
Like Mark, its eyes were fixed on the northwest direction.
In the swamp more than 20 meters away, One-Eyed Pabbi waited for a long time.
Until the three people's conversation could no longer be heard and the tracking mark in the sensor no longer showed any abnormal movement.
His body slowly emerged from the quagmire, and he didn't feel any discomfort at all as the foul-smelling mud and water flowed down from his head.
"Huh! Three rookies, so alert during the day I thought they'd spotted me!"
One-Eyed Pabbi sneered and took out the mutation potion from the mutant black-robed man from his arms. He stared at the potion for a long time and still struggled to put it into his arms. "Let's find a monster to try it!"
As a leader who was able to upgrade the adventure group to a two-star adventure group in an adventurer town like Osborne where weak people gather.
One-Eyed Papi is much smarter than most adventurers!
Ever since he met the mysterious man in black robes in the Mountain Tiger Bandits, his murderous intent towards Mark seemed to have surged to an uncontrollable level.
And when he thought about killing Mark, his mind couldn't accommodate too many plans and rules.
It seems that he subconsciously believes that no one is trustworthy in the assassination of Mark.
Even in the adventure group that he had personally organized, there was not a single trustworthy person.
And when he took out the potion at this moment, he suddenly had the urge to inject the potion into his body and then rush into the camp to tear those three people into pieces.
He realized that he might have been used by the mysterious man in black robe!
All the lies about helping me were just lies told by the mysterious man in black robe to deceive me.
If he guessed correctly, the mysterious man in black robe was most likely a dark wizard or heretic wanted by the Church of Holy Light.
It is true that the other party wants to kill a priest, but there is no guarantee that he will leave the priest alive after killing him!
Of course, although he saw through the intentions of the mysterious man in black robe.
One-eyed Pabbi had no intention of giving up his plan.
In his opinion, even without the help of this mutant potion, his assassination plan would be perfect.
Even if this mutation potion has no effect on the monsters later.
A high-level scroll of Crescent Moon Sacrifice Power is enough to turn any plan into the most perfect ambush plan!
Even if the holy light comes, it can’t be stopped!
