Chapter 301 Poisonous Jiao
Zhou Wen also brought back the antelope and bird entrusted to Wang Lu's care. It was not good to always trouble Wang Lu, and the favor had to be repaid, which would make things more troublesome later.
The bird had obviously gained a lot of weight. Although it looked a little bigger, Zhou Wen always felt that it was fatter, not because it had grown bigger.
The antelope still looked lifeless, lying lazily on the sofa and sleeping all day long. Except for food that aroused its interest, it never moved.
After consulting Wang Mingyuan, Zhou Wen learned that in the academy's dimensional realm, there was a place called the Poisonous Dragon Pond. In the pond, there was an epic creature called the Poisonous Dragon. The Poisonous Dragon had a chance to unleash a Qi skill called "Dragon Transformation Art", which was an aquatic Qi skill that could greatly increase a person's speed in the water.
Zhou Wen's current goal was to obtain the Dragon Transformation Technique. However, only one poisonous dragon would occasionally appear in the Poison Dragon Pond, and when discovered, it would be dealt with by the military. The dimensional realm where the Poison Dragon Pond was located was controlled by the military, and students from the academy who wanted to enter had to apply for a pass from the military.
Even if Zhou Wen had a mobile phone to download it, he still had to go to the dimensional realm and find the small hand pattern.
He would definitely be able to get in by finding Ansheng, but finding Ansheng would be equivalent to using the An family's methods, and Zhou Wen didn't want to do that.
So Zhou Wen called Li Xuan to see if he had any way to get a pass.
Li Xuan didn't know much about the place, so he just said that he would ask through his connections first. If he could get it, he would quote a price and let Zhou Wen see if it was suitable.
In the end, Zhou Wen spent 30,000 yuan and got a pass, which was a one-time pass and the stay inside could not exceed 48 hours.
"Old Zhou, why are you going to the Underground Marsh City? Although there are many rare extra-dimensional creatures there, they are all epic giants. It would be very difficult to kill them now, and it is not safe. Generally, only the instructors of the academy will apply to go there when they need special companion pets." Li Xuan handed the pass to Zhou Wen and said.
"I want to go to the Poisonous Dragon Pond and take a look. I heard that there is a poisonous dragon there that can unleash underwater body movement and energy skills. I am very interested in that." Zhou Wen said.
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan waved his hands repeatedly. "You said you wanted a pass there, and I've researched the situation there. The venomous snake you mentioned, let alone a Legendary-level creature, is impossible to kill. Even if you could, you wouldn't stand a chance. Legend has it that snakes transform into dragons after a thousand years, and dragons transform into dragons after another thousand years. That venomous dragon, while it hasn't transformed into a dragon, is a top-tier existence among Epic-level creatures, and is venomous. Even the water in the Poisonous Dragon Pond is extremely poisonous. An average Epic-level creature wouldn't even be able to get into the Poisonous Dragon Pond, let alone kill it, let alone us."
"I'm just going to take a look. If it works, it's fine. If not, forget it. Just consider it a chance to broaden my horizons." After Zhou Wen sent Li Xuan away, he took the pass and went to the underground Ze City.
The soldier guarding the underground Zecheng saw that Zhou Wen, a student, was actually about to enter the Zecheng, so he kindly reminded him, "Student, although there are not many dimensional creatures in Zecheng, each of them is epic and has its own unique features. If you don't have anything to worry about, it's best not to go in."
"Thanks for the reminder. I'm just going in to take a look. I won't go far." Zhou Wen thanked him.
After handing in the pass, Zhou Wen finally passed the checkpoint and arrived at the underground Ze City.
Zecheng is surrounded by water, but the water is not deep. The deepest part is only about one meter. The ground can be seen in the shallow part. There are many plants growing in the water, especially reeds, which look like forests.
From afar, you can see an ancient underground city. The city walls are already dilapidated, as if they have experienced the ruthless destruction of time.
Zhou Wen heard that there were many water monsters in Zecheng. In addition to the poisonous dragon, various water-based dimensional creatures often appeared. However, it was actually not that bad outside the city. Most of the powerful dimensional creatures were inside the city.
There was a cement bridge built later outside, leading to the gate of Zecheng. As Zhou Wen stepped onto the bridge, he heard someone coming to Zecheng again. He looked over and was slightly startled.
The person walking towards him from the checkpoint was actually his mentor, the princess.
Although the princess introduced Zhou Wen to study with Wang Mingyuan, according to the school system, Zhou Wen was still a student in the princess's class.
The princess was obviously surprised to see Zhou Wen. After completing the formalities, she walked to the bridge, looked at Zhou Wen, and asked, "Why did you come here? This place is too dangerous for students."
"Teacher Wang Mingyuan asked me to come here to observe and learn. I will just look outside and not go in." Zhou Wen said in the name of Wang Mingyuan to prevent the princess from saying anything more.
"Since we are going to learn by observation, then come with me. I am your mentor after all. I can't just let Uncle Mingyuan teach you. Let me teach you a lesson today." The princess said, and walked along the bridge towards the city gate.
"I...I really just came to take a look at the door...I don't want to go in..." Zhou Wen was depressed, but it was difficult to say it out loud, so he had to follow the princess forward.
As he walked, Zhou Wen looked towards the city gate of Zecheng under the city, trying to see if he could find the small hand pattern.
This time Zhou Wen was really lucky. He saw at a glance a small hand pattern printed next to the plaque on the city gate, and an ancient hieroglyph "water" was engraved on the palm of the small hand.
Zhou Wen quickly took out his phone and took a picture of the small hand pattern on the city gate. The princess saw it and said, "Why are you taking pictures of the city gate? Wait until you encounter a dimensional creature and take a good picture. It would be best if you can capture it in video so you can study it slowly when you get back. Water-based dimensional creatures are currently a major research topic in all major colleges in the Federation. They will be very helpful for future expeditions to the sea."
Zhou Wen also knew that the Federation had always wanted to conquer overseas, but because the situation at sea was different from that on land, so far, not many people could actually go out to sea. However, some experts had predicted that the Age of Exploration would soon be here.
Because of this prediction, the price of companion eggs related to the water system rose sharply during that period, and some even increased by more than ten times. However, 20 or 30 years have passed, and there is still no sign of the so-called Age of Discovery. It is still extremely dangerous for ordinary people to go to sea, and even epic-level people dare not go to sea easily.
After downloading the copy of Zecheng, Zhou Wen felt much more relaxed. He was not so afraid of those epic creatures. He thought it would be a good idea to follow the princess in to take a look and learn how the water-based dimensional creatures fought. It might be of some help.
After entering Zecheng, we found that the streets here were flooded even more seriously, and most of the houses were flooded halfway, like a flooded city.
Crash!
As soon as the two entered Zecheng, they saw a wave appearing not far ahead, and it seemed that something in the water was approaching them quickly.
