Thump!
Like a soul-chasing sound, Brada slowed down unconsciously. He spread out his soul consciousness to observe the movements of the surrounding swamps. However, he didn’t find anything except for that sound.
The muddy swamps were like black holes. All the soul consciousness he had sensed was swallowed by the swamps. He couldn’t detect any movement under the swamps.
At first, Brada thought that the creatures naturally emitted noises within their bodies, just like the dorsal fins of the sharks exposed when they wanted to attack.
But now he knew that it wasn’t the case. The creatures in the swamp had deliberately made those noises as if they were pounding on their hearts.
It was getting closer and becoming more urgent!
The sound was around, but there was no trace of it.
The creature that was hiding under the swamp was giving off this life-threatening noise to disturb their minds, reminding them at all times.
As if it was telling them that they were being watched.
It made them tense up at all times, never letting their guards down.
Beads of sweat collected on Brada’s forehead were running down his face like water.
He had been leading the way for a long time. He had to distinguish the traces he had left behind and also be wary of the creature’s movements in the swamp.
Without a doubt, the pressure he faced was the greatest. In addition, his strength was considered to be the weakest among the group.
As time went on, he observed that he was not as focused compared to the beginning. Even the mobilization of the divine power in his body had become somewhat sluggish.
Brada knew what was going on with his situation. Ever since he entered this Ghost Swamp, a series of changes had disrupted his original plan. However, this was his last chance.
Even if his plan was disrupted, there was no turning back. He could only move forward as usual, even though he knew that an endless hell was waiting for him.
However, his state of mind had been disturbed and he was stressed out.
It seemed that the pressure he was facing was far greater than Jerry and the others.
This was the first time Jerry and the others had entered the Ghost Swamp. They did not know much about the situation here. Most of the information was given to them by Brada.
What they had heard was completely different from what they had seen and experienced with their own eyes. On top of that, they were attacked by the creatures in the swamp.
Luckily the current situation did not pose any threat to them as Apollo was the only one who made a move. Furthermore, Apollo had preserved most of his strength to end a battle.
Therefore, only Brada knew how strange the Ghost Swamp was. According to his understanding of the maze, abnormal situations were not impossible but every time it occurred, a mass casualty would forebode.
Which included death!
For the trial-takers in the maze, the unexpected situation was like death’s door. None of the trial-takers who entered would be able to leave alive.
If he had not investigated the situation of the maze to find a way to save his wife, he would not have known about this.
Thus, he knew that the Ghost Swamp had entered an abnormal state.
On another note, Jerry had the Eternal Flower Register and three layers of the god-forbidden realm as his trump card. He even wished that some special circumstances would occur.
If Brada knew what Jerry was thinking about at this moment, it would probably scare him to death. Right now, he only hoped that he wouldn’t encounter any unexpected circumstances before he reached his goal.
On the flip side, Jerry was anticipating that something unexpected would happen.
Thump!
The time interval between the sound was getting shorter, and it was getting nearer to them.
“It’s coming!” Jerry, who had been silent all this time, exclaimed.
Immediately, everyone was on full alert. Their hearts tensed up, and they drew their divine power to protect their surroundings.
Apollo was the same as before. A wall of light surrounded the Sky Dynasty’s people.
“Crash!”
Even though Jerry had expected an attack, his expression changed the moment he saw it.
Countless half-inch-long, finger-sized monsters that looked like fishes and snakes, leaped up from the swamp.
They attacked them like a storm, and Apollo’s light wall collapsed in a few seconds under the overwhelming attacks
“Apollo, don’t worry about us. Each of you, protect yourself!” Jerry commanded in a deep voice.
Hearing Jerry’s words, Apollo hesitated because he planned to construct a few more light walls to protect the group. Despite feeling confused, he carried out Jerry’s order immediately.
Considering the speed at which the walls of light were breaking, Apollo finally understood the strength of these creatures. This time, a barrier that was ten times stronger than the original wall of light immediately enveloped his entire body.
The light from his entire body made Apollo look like a god who had descended into the world, but the endless divine light was unable to disperse the miasma that covered the swamp.
The moment the divine light enveloped Apollo, he finally understood why Jerry had given the order.
The creatures did not just leap out of the swamp. At this moment, on the path they were walking on, countless strange fish figures appeared in the surrounding small swamps.
If Apollo had used the wall of light to surround everyone just now, it would enable those creatures to directly attack them from the small swamps within the wall of light.
Thinking of this, Apollo broke out in a cold sweat and hid the contempt in his heart.
It seemed that the swamp was indeed full of dangers. No wonder Jerry had repeatedly stressed the need to be careful before coming here.
Compared to the dangers of the Ghost Swamp, the Divine Spear Dynasty was simply child’s play!
The strange fishes seemed to spawn endlessly and there was no peace at all. The entire swamp was like a Gatling gun that was constantly spewing fire.
The strange-looking fishes were the endless ammunition. Moreover, the range of the Gatling gun was so wide that Jerry and the others had nowhere to escape.
Right now, Jerry and the others were actually suppressed by the storm-like attacks.
Apollo also discovered something even more terrifying.
