Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1431 Seventy-three. Into the swamp

  Chapter 1431 Seventy-three. Entering the swamp

  The ships with white sails are floating in the quiet bay with broken sparkles.

  Haunting reflections cast on the shore, seagull-like silhouettes hover over the harbor.

  After the rainy season, the late autumn before the harsh winter did not let everything go dormant, and the lush greenery spreads everywhere the sun shines.

  Bright rays of light tore through the dark clouds and sprinkled on warm and bright places of light. The two mysterious alchemy towers standing between the cities shone with strange light, and the knocking sound of construction and maintenance echoed in the air.

  Residents enjoyed the afternoon, wandering between the renovated new neighborhood and the dilapidated ruins of the old days, sketching, taking pictures, having lunch on the grass, and bathing in the light spots that passed through the shade of the World Tree.

  Agate Lake is undoubtedly the most refreshing place. Clusters of colorful flowers bloom by the lake, spreading their fragrance with the warm autumn wind that ripples the transparent and clear lake.

   On the island in the center of the Agate Lake, Lu Li stood in front of the tree house covered with grassy grass, touching the roots of the trees beside him with his palms.

  The twisted phantom stood beside him.

"why?"

   "There's nothing I need to do outside." Lu Li replied. "The Swamp Mother and her allies need my help more than ever."

   "Then why not humane?"

  Lu Li stopped indoctrination, only retaining the limit of humanity that this body can accommodate.

   "It's not necessary." Lu Li picked up the development plan drafted by Valendo and simply flipped through it.

  The title of the curse does not change according to the amount of humanity.

   In other words. No matter how much humanity Lu Li possessed, it would be difficult for him to compete against the swamp. However, if Lu Li died, the swamp with a large amount of humanity might turn into a truly unstoppable taboo.

   "The Land of Light is to you. If we fail..."

  Lu Li put down the development plan that had come to an end, rolled his eyes, and said to Twisted Shadow before the merchant arrived, "Maintain the Land of Light and make sure it walks on the right path."

   "What shall I do?"

   "The School of Alchemy and the Academy of Sciences, they are the real hope"

  The development of the Bright Lands is on the right track and will not stop because of the loss of someone or some people.

  Lu Li and the merchant disappeared into the dim void, leaving only the distorted shadow standing in front of the tree house.

   rustle—

  The sound of the wind blowing through the trees on high carries through the Brightlands.

  …

  The dark and yellow swamp still shrouded the dark land.

   The monsters gathered outside the "eggshell" like ants attack and eat the outer shell membrane.

  This shell prevents them from entering, and also prevents the beings inside from coming out.

  Lu Li thought that the swamp would catch him because of resentment, but he was also blocked. The only known way to enter the swamp is the fluorescent passage of Princess Spider.

   But Lu Li couldn't get in from there, and he couldn't get close, so he could only use other methods.

  Cursed titles won’t work, business world won’t work, and ants around eggshells won’t work either.

  Lu Li almost gave up on entering the swamp, and while he was waiting for the result with peace of mind, he heard strange noises in the distance—after approaching them, Lu Li learned that only things that truly exist in all worlds can pass through the swamp.

  There is something about him that fits the description.

  Evil spirit chess.

  Lu Li followed the shell membrane to find a quiet place to enter. Some eerie recognized him and followed him. Gradually, more and more people merged into the team following Lu Li.

  The ragged and inconsistent pious chants of the heretics echoed in the air. The servants were driven away by the relatives, the relatives surrounded the priests, and the sacrifices surrounded the alien gods. The solitary monstrous, evil spirits, evil spirits kept their distance from each other.

  Lu Li gave up looking for a secluded place and entered alone. He took out the evil spirit chess "Apostle" and touched it to the shell membrane of the swamp. As if the resistance to integrating with the world disappeared, the apostle led Lu Li into the swamp.

  The sky is replaced by a surging haze, as if shrouded in a raging sandstorm.

   Fragmented regions appeared in front of our eyes. They were suspended like empty islands, forming a broken archipelago isolated from top to bottom.

  Viscous and flowing mud, twisted and swaying branches, melting ruins, each empty island presents different content. The Midnight City in the distance was also shattered, with only fragments remaining like shattered pottery. Only four alchemy towers exuding hazy mist stood among the collapsed ruins, forming the largest empty island.

   Foul swollen sacs hung from the yellow vines that climbed a third of the way to the Alchemy Tower, while figures swaying on empty islands contended with the power of these swamps.

  The air is filled with the peculiar smell of rotting silt in the swamp.

  Thick and chaotic footsteps sounded behind, and the monsters entered the swamp one after another along the gap created by Lu Li, gradually crowding the Broken Island on the edge of the swamp.

   Several heretics stepped out of the team and asked Lu Li for instructions. After he pointed out the direction, they drilled out of the mouthparts of the gray robe and secreted creepy mucus, forming a slowly paved road to the Broken Islands.

  Lu Li led them to Midnight City Island and gathered them at the nearest alchemy tower.

  They should go to accept the shelter of the alchemy tower as soon as possible, because the swamp will corrupt them all the time, as if they are burrowing into the stomach of some existence and being digested—they are indeed in the body of the swamp.

  Led the turbulent and weird torrent Lu Li into the collapsed and broken ruins, his arrival seemed to wake up something, and the weirdos came out from the dark corners of the broken island to join this grand parade.

   Gradually, as they got deeper into the swamp, Lu Li heard dull, immature, and faint pulsating sounds coming from the depths of the swamp.

   Like the heartbeat of a dormant cub.

  Is that the heartbeat of the swamp, or is it gestating something?

  An empty island they passed collapsed at this moment, but all the monsters walked on the slime blanket, and there were no casualties.

  The road to Alchemy Tower Island was unimpeded, and the swamp did not hinder them. Perhaps Swamp's attention was drawn to Spider-Princess? Or are they already food to be digested?

  When the stretching mycelium landed on the Alchemy Tower Island, Lu Li joined some of his companions.

   "You were caught in the swamp?"

  Remy and Margaret discovered where Lu Li had come in, and they were waiting here.

   "I came here on my own initiative." Lu Li let those weird people land on the island, "I'm needed here more. What about the others."

  He found no sign of the Mother of the Swamp.

   "In the other alchemy towers." Remy pointed to the alchemy towers in the depths, remembering the more important things at this time, "Lu Li...we have discovered the truth about the swamp."

   "It's giving birth..."

   "Since when?"

"just now."

   That's when Princess Spider comes in.

   Swampland realized the threat of Spider Princess and her rules, so he used splitting to replace death?

  Lu Li thought of the dull heartbeat echoing in the swamp.

   The split of the swamp must be prevented before Spider Princess reaches the core.
