“What?” Athena was immediately on guard and scanned all the trees around her warily.
Unfortunately, she didn’t notice anything strange.
She turned her head and bumped into Jerry’s half-smiling face. She instantly understood that she had been deceived by Jerry.
Her face instantly darkened, and she turned his head away, ignoring him, Deep down, she really did care about the safety of this place.
But he still had the heart to make fun of her when it was a matter of life and death. This instantly made Athena unhappy.
Jerry smiled faintly and did not explain himself. He just caught up with Athena and directly grabbed her arm, pulling it gently.
Athena was pulled into Jerry’s arms. Athena’s face turned red and her heart began beating uncontrollably.
She started to struggle, trying to get out of Jerry’s arms.
“Shh!”Jerry leaned close to her ear and exhaled softly.
Athena’s face turned even redder. It was like a roasted apple. She was struggling to get out.
However, she suddenly heard a terrifying roar from afar. That roar contained an extremely terrifying divine power.
It caused the entire forest to tremble non-stop. Immediately, Athena did not dare to make the slightest movement, and cold sweat slid down her forehead.
“Don’t worry, it’s fine!” Jerry said, indifferent, as he patted Athena’s shoulder lightly.
Not only that, Jerry even headed in the direction of the roar. Athena and Alice looked at each other.
They knew that this was not something they could stop, so they could only follow Jerry helplessly.
It was as if it had just rained in this forest, and the air was humid.
The grass on the ground was green, and soft under their feet.
If not for the terrifying roar just now, the forest would have been quiet and peaceful.
But Jerry knew that he must not be fooled by this appearance. The calmer the forest was,
the greater the danger hidden under this calmness.
“Help!” Through the leaves came a woman’s cry for help. The few of them looked at each other, raised their vigilance, and groped in the direction of the voice.
It didn’t take long for them to get close to its source.
It was a figure covered in mud. With that slim figure, they could vaguely tell that it was a woman.
Although her face couldn’t be seen clearly because of the mud, her attractive figure could not be conceled.
It was more appropriate to say that it was because of the mud that the woman’s clothes stuck tightly to her body, perfectly displaying the curves of her body.
“Wait!” Jerry pulled back Alice, who was trying to save her.
“What’s wrong? If we don’t save her, she’ll be gone.” Alice was confused.
“That’s a swamp!” Jerry looked at her with a serious expression.
Yes, that woman was at least a tier 2 god-king. However, even so, she still had no resistance to the swamp. Half of her body had already sunken into the swamp.
Fortunately, although the swamp was strange, it still retained some of the swamp characteristics.
Furthermore, the woman that very well. Although she was calling for help, she did not move at all. She laid there, not daring to move at all.
This could slow down the rate at which she was sinking.
Jerry instructed Athena and the other two not to move around. Then, with a flash, he flew out.
He did not come into contact with the strange swamp under his feet rashly. He directly pulled the figure that was trapped in the swamp in midair, trying to pull her out .
However, he suddenly realized that there was a huge attractive force from the swamp. Not only did the speed of the woman’s descent suddenly increase.
Even Jerry, who was in the air, was about to be pulled down.
“Interesting!”Jerry’s eyes flashed, and a smile appeared on his lips.
When he first saw this swamp, he had felt an inexplicable sense of dissonance, but he could not tell where that sense of dissonance came from.
Only now did he finally understand that this swamp was alive. To be precise, it had its own consciousness. The reason why this woman had not been swallowed by the swamp.
It was purely because the swamp wanted to use this woman as bait to attract more prey to come over.
Then, it would pull them all under the swamp.
Suddenly, Jerry’s pupils constricted. Even Athena, Alice, and the others outside the swamp were screaming.
At that moment, the black and filthy swamp was seething. Then, countless hands wrapped in mud crawled out from underneath.
Perhaps the swamp realized that Jerry had not been caught under the swamp, so it immediately deployed this strategy.
If Jerry had guessed correctly, these hands should have come from the victims who had accidentally fallen into the swamp and died.
They were the so-called trial-takers. Or the followers that the trial-takers brought with them.
But Jerry was different from the ordinary trial-takers.
It would be too naive to assume him could be pulled to the bottom of the swamp with such petty tricks.
A silver light burst out from Jerry’s body as he approached his severed arms. However, there was no blood on the wounds of the severed arms.
Instead, it was a black-green liquid that emitted a rotten stench.
Jerry immediately activated his domain, and within the area covered by his domain, the suction force that erupted from the swamp instantly disappeared.
This time, with just a little bit of force, even the people who had sunk into the swamp below were directly pulled out by Jerry.
Following that, Jerry did not stop. He casually waved out a light blade that was condensed from the power of space.
All the mud-covered arms that stretched out from the bottom of the swamp in front of him were all chopped into pieces, black-green liquid splattering everywhere.
Every time these arms blocked his way, Jerry would fly past the swamp in a few steps.
He casually threw the figure that he had saved from the swamp onto the ground. Jerry clapped his hands and looked indifferently at the endless arms that were chasing after him from the swamp behind him.
Athena and Alice looked at the countless arms, their faces pale.
They had never seen such a disgusting scene before, and hurriedly urged him to leave.
However, Jerry did not budge, as though he did not see the arms charging at him.
“Your Majesty? ?” Athena’s voice was trembling. No matter what, this swamp, which could render a tier 2 divine king helpless, was extremely dangerous.
The consequences would be unimaginable.
“It’s fine, don’t worry!” Jerry smiled.
As expected, when the arms reached the edge of the swamp, they disappeared and fell back in.
The strange abilities of the swamp could only be limited by its range. Once out of the swamp, no matter how terrifying it was, there was nothing it could do.
