This is a statement that applies in most cases: a larger size means greater strength and stronger bones to support such a massive body.
Regardless, everyone instantly realized one thing.
The enormous swamp mudfish in front of us is extremely dangerous.
More like a dinosaur than a fish.
It has a pair of short, thick, and powerful hind limbs, while its forelimbs are attached to the sides of its body, looking like a pair of side fins. Its huge head is oval-shaped, like a catfish.
The swamp mudfish is covered in dark green mud, and its eyes seem to be covered with a thin membrane.
A strange light flickered in the huge, lifeless fish's eyes.
"hiss----"
The swamp mudfish emitted a high-pitched, hoarse sound, similar to a snake flicking its tongue.
Then it shook its body, and the dark green liquid clinging to it flew everywhere.
Those professionals who had not yet been infected by the "mist" quickly took cover. It was best to avoid getting involved with this mysterious substance, as it was good for their lifespan.
Immediately afterwards, the swamp mudfish charged towards the group!
"Damn it, this is the first time in my life I've ever heard a fish make a sound!"
Hua Bo cursed under his breath, then turned to look at the teams behind him, "Watch out! Those who haven't gotten covered in the mud yet, try not to get on it!"
"Captain Hua, your demands are too high!"
A gunnery squad leader was complaining bitterly.
With the black mud spreading, there are few places to stand, and you have to avoid being splashed by the black mud thrown out by the mudfish while dodging their attacks.
"Go ahead and touch it if you want!"
Hua Bo took a deep breath and gripped the short wooden staff in his hand tightly.
"Psionic Shaping!"
A giant sword made of pale yellow golden light appeared above his head.
He is a [Simulated Mage], an advanced level of the mage profession.
Skilled in using materialization magic, while also manipulating magical weapons to attack.
The attack style looks like that of a melee class.
With the magic greatsword aimed at the swamp mudfish's enormous head, Hua Bo raised his hand, and the greatsword slashed down instantly!
"bite----"
The imagined scene did not occur; the moment the tip of the magic greatsword collided with the enormous head of the swamp mudfish, it came to an abrupt halt.
Hua Bo frowned. "So hard?"
His attack was certainly powerful, yet it seemed to leave only a white mark on the swamp mudfish.
Even more deadly was that, in pain, the swamp mudfish aimed at the magic weapon, lowered its head, and when it raised its head again, streaks of black mud flowed from its mouth.
Zhu Boxuan's eyes widened. "It's going to use a ranged skill! Get out of the way!"
Before the words were even finished, the swamp mudfish suddenly spat out a stream of black mud!
Pfft—
The black mud transformed into a sharp sword, heading straight for the magical weapon!
The magical weapon was instantly struck, shuddered in the air, and Hua Bo's face turned pale.
The black mud, undiminished in its power, hurtled straight towards the group!
The black mud spread at a completely different rate than before, and more people were covered in it and infected with the [mischievous mist].
Zhu Boxuan gritted his teeth, "This beast can hold mud and water in its mouth and shoot it out!"
"I saw it all!"
Several knights gave up dodging, after all, they were not very agile and had already been hit by the [Misty Aura], so they were no longer afraid of stepping on the black mud.
They all raised their weapons and charged towards the swamp mudfish.
At the same time, several archers nocked arrows and gunners raised their weapons.
The assassin, wielding a dagger, quickly closed the distance to the swamp mudfish.
Ding ding ding————
Boom!
Archers and gunners also failed to inflict any damage on the swamp mudfish.
At that moment, the knight's attack arrived!
A knight, shield in hand, collided heavily with a swamp mudfish!
His first awakened class skill is [Shield Bash], and his shield is his best weapon.
The man and the beast collided, the swamp mudfish remained unmoved, but the knight's eyes bulged out from the shock.
The other knights also thrust their greatswords into different parts of the swamp mudfish.
Left eye, underside of body, tail, dorsal fin, thigh.
Several parts of the swamp mudfish's body were pierced by several long swords almost simultaneously!
There were no weaklings among those who dared to appear in the Misty Swamp.
Everyone's first thought was to find out the weaknesses of this giant swamp mudfish.
However, all the moves were in vain!
The swamp mudfish, in pain, stomped its thick hind legs on the ground and spun around in place.
The knights retreated the moment their attacks failed, while the shield-wielding knight gritted his teeth and used his shield bash once more.
Bang!!!
The Shieldbearer was knocked away by the thick tail, and the Swamp Mudfish's movements froze for a moment.
Thanks to him, the other knights safely withdrew from the swamp mudfish's attack range.
Although this group was assembled temporarily, they still managed to cooperate to a certain extent.
The assassins each delivered a single slash before immediately escaping.
But the swamp mudfish aren't wooden stakes; they don't just stand there foolishly waiting to be hit.
It opened its huge mouth, revealing two rows of sharp teeth.
He bit down hard on one of the assassins!
"Damn it!"
The assassin tried to quickly create distance between himself and the swamp mudfish by stepping on the ground, but felt a soft, yielding sensation under his foot.
It’s over!
The assassin felt a chill run down his spine.
The different terrain resulted in completely different effects from this back step.
He failed to create enough distance!
The assassin closed his eyes and steeled his resolve.
You fucking hard, aren't you?
Let's see if you're tough enough with your mouth!
Since he was going to get hit anyway, he might as well maximize the benefits of his actions!
The assassin gripped the bayonet in reverse and thrust it straight into the mouth of the swamp mudfish!
"Snap—"
The assassin's eyes widened.
"You still didn't get it?"
The swamp mudfish snapped into place beforehand, its sharp teeth precisely seizing the assassin's dagger.
The next second.
Snap!
The assassin's dagger shattered instantly!
"My D-grade equipment!"
The assassin's eyes widened, and before he could recover from the pain of his shattered weapon, the swamp mudfish's head sent him flying.
The immense impact caused the assassin to cough up blood, and he could even clearly hear the sound of his bones shattering inside his body.
Immediately afterwards, the assassin fell into the muddy water, his fate unknown.
"Fu Chen!" Someone who was teammates with the assassin exclaimed immediately.
The swamp mudfish grinned, seemingly mocking their overestimation of their abilities.
Then it took two heavy steps, leaving two huge footprints on the soft mud.
Hua Bo's eyes twitched, and a bad feeling suddenly crept into his heart.
Sure enough, the swamp mudfish, stepping on the compacted mud, instantly charged towards a boulder where the archers were gathered!
"Pay attention to formation! Spread out!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.
Hua Bo had just exchanged blows with the swamp mudfish and had already felt the beast's physical strength.
Right now, they absolutely cannot afford to lose any more people.
They can't afford to lose!
