Bizarre Detective Agency - Chapter 1432
Chapter 1432 Seventy-four. Two swamps
Lu Li’s black eyes fell deep into the broken swamp.
There is the origin of the swamp, and what is gestating now.
Lu Li is a person favored by the world—any existence has no doubt about this. He is the world’s self-salvation and the hope of order.
As a matter of course, the swamp will be resolved by Lu Li, who bears the favor of the world, the prophecy of the Eternal Dreamer, and the expectations of the order camp.
Like every other weirdness he tackles.
It’s just that the curse title loses its effect from entering the swamp – whether the swamp has its own rules, or becomes a new world… It’s not good news for them.
“You shouldn’t have come in…”
Marguerite’s illusory soul is stained with pessimism. The swamp suppresses all strength. They are the same as those monsters who have no power other than their own body, they can only huddle under the alchemy tower and linger on.
Only the brothers and sisters Remi and Jimmy firmly believed that Lu Li could do it.
“I wasn’t the one to solve the swamp.”
They still don’t know about the Spider Princess, and Lu Li will tell the story about asking Dark Star City for help according to the prophecy.
“So the swamp suddenly went into labor.”
Remy suddenly realized. Plus the favor of the world, the prophecy of the Everdreamer… she thinks they will conquer the swamp.
“You should go to Spider Princess and help it.”
However, she was worried about an accident. After entering, Lu Li hadn’t gone to meet Spider Princess yet.
Lu Li was about to do this: “What about you?”
“We can still insist, Dean Chris has been maintaining the operation of the four alchemy towers.”
Obviously there are countless weirdos who are more suitable for moving in the swamp than Lu Li, but only he has been in contact with the spider princess, and only he can command the spider princess.
“Where is the core of the swamp?”
Remi pointed to the direction of the dull heartbeat deep in the swamp: “It should be where life is born.”
“But that’s just one of them.”
Now the swamp is turning into two.
When Lu Li was about to rendezvous with Princess Spider, the Sky Island of the World Tree surrounded by four alchemy towers suddenly appeared abnormal
The Broken Island carrying the World Tree collapsed in large swaths, revealing the hanging and rotten roots.
Under the watchful eyes of Lu Li, Remi and Jimmy brothers and sisters, Margaret, many weirdos, and other allies in the archipelago, the rocks and soil condensed by the roots of Yin were all over the cracks, split, and fell down. When the soil became less and less, the withered giant tree fell into the dark yellow abyss of this swamp world.
The World Tree, a symbol of past glory, has fallen.
But a new World Tree has grown in the Land of Light.
In any case, this scene left the beings in the swamp indifferent.
At this moment, Lu Li suddenly noticed something, looking at the edge of the swamp.
The direction in which he and the monsters came in, the shell melted, and drilled into a skull bigger than the tree of the world.
The terrifying behemoth tore through the hole, like a predator outside the eggshell, burrowing into the swamp little by little.
“Lu Li! My mother and I are here to help you!”
The tiny silhouette sitting on top of the skull shouted in the distance, and there were groups of figures behind it.
Mother flapped her bones and ran towards the alchemy tower where Lu Li was.
This sense of all weirdness uniting against a common enemy is exhilarating.
Remy, who was sad and separated from the world tree, whispered: “It’s like the end of the story…”
“What did you say?” Jimmy lowered his head and asked his sister.
“nothing.”
Lu Li waited for his mother to approach. It can’t fall, the alchemy tower empty island is not even as long as the ribs at the end of its chest cavity, it’s just close to the empty island, and the skull is on the edge of the empty island.
“Lu Lilililililili—”
The elder sister jumped headfirst onto the empty island, and threw herself into Lu Li’s arms with a long tone.
“How did ‘Mother’ get into the swamp?” Lu Li asked.
“Mother is the guardian of the land!” The eldest sister shouted proudly.
Lu Li raised his head, and the huge monster in front of him gradually coincided with the silhouette of the Land Guardian that he had seen in the illusion of Night City—
Was the “mother” the guardian of the land boundary, or the skeleton of the guardian of the land boundary? Either way doesn’t matter anymore.
“Can a human being restore your former strength?” Lu Li asked it.
But his mother told Lu Li that it was dead, no matter how difficult it was to destroy the swamp, it could only restrain its expansion.
“Chris is in that alchemy tower, she knows what to ask you to do.”
Lu Li placed the head of his reluctant elder sister in front of his mother’s.
“how about you?”
“Meet the Spider Princess.”
Lu Li summoned the pagans who swallowed spider silk, and let it build a slender iridescent creep that slowly extended into the distance.
The swamp seemed to be focusing all its attention on the spider princess and the pregnancy, even Lu Li and the corpse of the guardian of the land were indifferent. While walking along the ever-collapsing creep, the frequent collapses and fewer and fewer empty islands around indicate that the engulfment of the swamp is coming to an end.
The rainbow bridge across the swamp appeared in the distance, Lu Li asked far away: “Can you go faster?”
Princess Spider looked at him, and Lu Li continued, “The swamp has sensed your arrival and is giving birth to a new swamp.”
“Knight, I can’t go any faster…”
And the problem is more than that, they haven’t found another core of the swamp.
Lu Li turned his gaze to his feet, where there should be clues: “We’re going deeper.”
The mycelium sprayed out by the heretics formed a spiral staircase, and when it extended to a height of several floors, Lu Li stopped it and replaced it with a strong rope hanging down to the dim lower floor.
Lu Li’s right hand grabbed the mycelium rope, and fell vertically into the depths of the swamp with the heretics.
The surrounding area was covered with a deep and hazy yellow, and it was confirmed that it had reached the swamp, because the rotting swamp like the ocean surged here.
Lu Li saw ghouls, many ghouls. Rotting and festering corpses floated in the mud. It was also at this time that he saw the outline of the iron plate inlaid with the inscription again.
Blood Spirit lay on the festering corpses of several ghouls, his chest heaved slightly, and he even raised his head, staring at Lu Li and the heretics who broke into the deep yellow swamp.
“Blood man?”
It smelled a familiar scent from Lu Li, “You are really human…”
“You guessed it?”
“I have some doubts.” The blood spirit whispered, propping up its rotten body, “If you had revealed your identity at that time, I would cooperate with you…”
“It’s fine now.” Lu Li didn’t continue talking about the past, “Do you know where the core of the swamp is?”
Bloodsprite hangs its crumbling head, phalanges pointing down: just below.
“What about the other swamp it bred?”
“Conceive? No…human, it’s splitting…”
Suddenly, the swamp around Blood Spirit swelled with a foul bloat.
The rotten head rolled down from the neck, and the mouth of the blood spirit opened and closed dryly: “Here it comes…”
The hanging hyphae tightened instantly, taking Lu Li away from the swamp.
“Mycelia and roots are together…”
Lu Li, who was pulled out of the deep yellow sea by the mycelium rope, saw that the heretics and blood spirits who were chanting the teachings were swallowed by the bursting swelling bubbles.
