Chapter 1101 - 598: Situation Inside the Poison Swamp, Black Dragon Appears

In such a situation, those Lords with thoughts of plundering could only restrain their eagerness.

Jiang Yi also followed the crowd, eager to hear firsthand news from within the Poison Swamp.

The Lords who withdrew from the Poisonous Mist Swamp did so because they suffered heavy losses and their antitoxic potions had failed.

Some couldn’t fight long in the toxic mist due to lack of preparation, while others were forced out due to excessive soldier casualties that had severely damaged them.

After these many days since the arrival, everyone basically understood the function of those twenty-four [Lord-level Passive Skills].

The [Rescue] skill from the Wisdom System increases by 4% the chance for originally dead members to survive, per level, with a maximum of 10 levels, which means once fully leveled, it can reduce soldier battle losses by 40%.

This is definitely a "Divine Skill" among passive skills.

It’s also one of the real privileges the Lord System grants to the Lords.

Almost all Lords try to prioritize spent skill points on [Rescue].

With the support of such a "Divine Skill," Lords’ soldier casualties are significantly reduced.

Of course, if faced with formidable enemies, killed, killed again, or if the Lord ascends right there.

Then [Rescue] alone cannot reverse fate against the heaven.

Another important point is that soldiers resurrected by [Rescue] will only have 10% of their Life Value.

This Life Value indicates a dying state.

Moreover, injuries on soldiers won’t disappear, only the final lethal blow will be healed.

Severed limbs remain severed, and severe injuries remain severe.

Yet, even so, for other Lords, the skill [Rescue] remains crucial.

Even Zong Shen has early on maximized [Rescue].

He pays extreme attention to soldier casualties.

Whenever possible, he opts for gang fights rather than duels, capitalizing on skill advantages so as not to let his soldiers bridge gaps with their lives.

Therefore, Zong Shen doesn’t feel much about the [Rescue] skill.

However, for those Lords escaping from the poisonous mist, the [Rescue] skill clearly helped them retain some soldiers.

In the recent swamp battle, those Lords lost thirty to forty warriors, and at least more than five hundred soldiers lay dead in the swamp forever.

The battle results exchanged were successfully repelling the attacks of Red-scaled Dogmen and Lizard People.

But those abominable entities did not retreat.

Who knows what is in the depths of the swamp that they care about so much.

Even after the living forces were thoroughly defeated, the remaining Dogmen and Lizard People continued to obstruct layer by layer.

According to these Lords who left Poison Swamp, it’s only a matter of time before the main force attacks the depths of the swamp.

Originally, everyone wanted to enter Poison Swamp to slay the Little Flame Demon and explore the swamp interior.

Unexpectedly, later everyone got mad, paying no attention to the Little Flame Demon at all.

Especially after enduring the hardest initial encounter battles, they advanced one to two hundred meters.

Near a swampy mire, they discovered a Silver Treasure Chest and two Black Iron Treasure Chests.

The appearance of treasure chests successfully ignited everyone’s fighting spirit.

Everyone became firmly convinced that treasures must exist deep in the swamp!

Whether it’s the thorns along the way, the mire, or those remnants of Dogmen and Lizard People launching attacks hidden in the toxic mist, none could thwart their enthusiasm for treasure hunting.

Currently, these Lords inside still capable of enduring the toxic mist are striving hard to push deeper into the swamp, capitalizing on their skills and using Fire Magic to clear the mist for greater efficiency.

As the main force proceeded deeper, their formation became more scattered.

But according to departing Lords, when they left, they encountered an attack by a tall black-scaled Dogman ahead.

That Dogman was noticeably stronger than normal Red-scaled Dogmen Warriors.

Holding two war blades, its movements were extraordinarily agile.

The Wolf Cavalry Warriors couldn’t withstand even two cuts from it.

Moreover, its defense was also strong, attacks from Tier Two Crossbowmen could not pierce its scale hide.

Besides that freakishly strong Dogman, an equally huge Lizardman Warrior appeared.

Its size was twice that of a normal Lizardman.

The scales on its lower body could stand up and shoot out like blades.

It could also spray corrosive mucus with great strength.

These two colossal creatures alone gave the Lords enough headaches.

Thus, advancing was not smooth sailing, it would take at least another ten minutes to reach the depths of the swamp.

These insights about the Poison Swamp situation were disclosed like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

Among the surrounding Lords initially watching the drama, more than half suddenly showed a motivated expression.

Unfortunately, they lacked sufficient antitoxic potions.

This made them rather regretful.

Some Lords even immediately returned to their territories, preparing to purchase antitoxic potions, hoping they could return in time to sip some soup, considering that the news alone about potential treasures in the Poison Swamp was enough to make them take risks.

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Yi became more anxious.

However, since the Black Dragon hasn’t appeared, that indicated the situation within the Poisonous Mist Swamp isn’t very optimistic.

She squeezed the Communication Crystal in her hand, deciding to wait and observe for a while!

Currently, there are still many Lords and accompanying warriors inside the Poison Swamp, not yet the right time.
