Chapter 520 Part 1: Swamp Mission



Mutated Swamp,

Outside the capital, there is a strange place. Wizards rarely walk by this place. Even merchant caravans avoid the location.

No one knows the abnormality of the mutated swamp. The unknown lurking monsters in the swamp can pose a threat to high-level wizards. 

So the swamp was mostly abandoned.

Right now, a flying monster pulling the carriage enters the area. The monster directly landed in the outer area.

Because the miasma coming from the inner area of the swamp makes the monster uncomfortable.

When the monster touched the ground. 

Carolina Slate stepped out of the cabin. Right after, her senses picked up the danger. She also noticed the uneasiness of the flying monster.

She was not alone. There was a carriage driver. His wizard level was low. The miasma will affect his body if he stays here for long.

After figuring it out, she ordered him to leave. The flying monster enthusiastically left the place. Seeing the disappearing back of the monster carriage.

She furrowed her eyebrows. Even the monster was uncomfortable. So the mission contents are real. There must be a reason for abnormal changes in the swamp.

She quickly decides to investigate the area. She then started entering the swamp area.

A few minutes later,

Another person arrived here on the aircraft. After dropping him on the ground. The aircraft left. He is none other than Henry Barlow.

"Damn it," He gritted his teeth in anger. Mike Curtis is forcing him to do many things. A few moments ago, he told him the whereabouts of his. 

Hearing that Mike felt it was a good chance to attack people around Vincent. He wants him to attack and brutally injure Carolina Slate.

Slowly, Henry is slightly regretting it. Because he is starting to feel uneasy. Nobody knows if the Sub-Taboo Hall would stay silent or not. 

If not then he is going to face serious consequences. The weapon hall is not as strong as the Taboo Hall.

And he is not the only talented wizard in the wizard hall. If things escalated too high, there is no guarantee that he would survive.

Since he had agreed to the request. There was no backing away. Henry then looked at the dark swamp ahead.

"Carolina, if you want to blame someone, then blame Vincent Carey for standing out too much," He mumbled under his breath.

He had requested a simple duel request. But Vincent rejected it straightforwardly. Vincent may not know but his words are having consequences.

"She must have gone inside," Henry muttered, looking ahead.

Then he started walking as well. He wants to beat her to death. The mission has nothing to do with him.

The main area of the swamp was circular in size. The place was covered with dark green miasma. 

It's difficult for normal wizards to stay here. Otherwise, their mana core has a chance of getting contaminated. 

Only people with plant-related magic can somewhat survive here. In the swamp, many plant monsters are lurking beneath the water.I think you should take a look at

The roots are extended to several meters. If any prey enters the swamp area, they would be caught by the roots.

Unlike the edge of the swamp. The core area of the swamp was infested with plant monsters. The place is hard to recognize. If one looks at the scene closely, one plant monster's vines are entangled with another.

So much so that the place looks like a cage made up of vines. Several bloomed flowers can be seen over the cage formation. 

They are nothing but the heads of the plant monster. Some of the flowers have sharp rows of teeth in them. It can suck away the blood of the infiltrating monster. 

Outside of the swamp, the place was covered by dense green vegetation and trees. There is no particular route that leads to the swamp water. 

But the area was so large. It would take a long time for someone to enter the real swamp.

Carolina who is just starting to come across the trees raised her vigilance. Two vines released from her palms.

She is using her Vine to investigate the area. The mission description was to clear out the monsters.

What she doesn't know was? Most of the low-level monsters are afraid to go inside the swamp area. 

Once they enter, their whole body ends up dry. Fearing danger, the low-level monsters are occupying the outskirts of the swamp area.

Some time ago, this situation was noticed by the officials. And they submitted a mission request to the Yellow River Academy. But nobody truly knows what's hiding in the core area.

Puch~

The vine pierces through the 2nd order ant monsters, taking away its life. Carolina wasn't flustered but she resumed her walking.

The ant monsters are normally seen in the forest area. They pose no threat to the high-level wizards. 

But still, Carolina showed some caution. She doesn't want to face the insect colonies. Her magic is not suitable for the group attack.

So she quickly walked away from this place.

On the other hand, Henry Barlow is walking slowly. The miasmic breath is making him uncomfortable. 

It's not like he didn't know about her mission. When he was here entering the mission hall to collect details. 

He knew it was not an easy mission. Later he found out the details by bribing someone. But he didn't expect the swamp area to make him uncomfortable. 

Though the miasmic breath is uncomfortable. He is a level-5 Peak wizard. It's not causing him any life-threatening threat. 

But he had planned to meet her sooner. The situation here is spoiling his plans. This is not even the main location of the swamp.

While he is struggling here.

Meanwhile,

Tony Burnett reached the area. Looking at the dark swamp ahead. A gloomy glint flashes in his eyes. The swamp is not here but it's located deeper. But the whole place is known as a swamp area.

Instead of entering the swamp area, he stayed in the magic aircraft. His goal was to kill both of them.

He doesn't want to face any unnecessary situations by entering inside. He is a bloodline wizard. The smell of miasmic breath is disgusting to him.
