Chapter 1090 - 594: Status of the Southern Poison Swamp

Upon entering the Poison Swamp, one must overcome not only the negative effects of the poison gas.

The swamp’s terrain and the fog-obscured vision are also significant obstacles.

Additionally, there are the monsters lurking in the swamp and the army of the Black Dragon’s followers.

Adding to this is the Black Dragon, whose singular combat power is off the charts, making the journey through the Poison Swamp destined to be perilous.

She was assembling her team while contemplating.

This matter is difficult for her to intervene and prevent.

Never mind those Lords who have already responded to the call.

Even herself, if she wasn’t already aware of the inside story, she might also be unable to resist the desire to explore and profit, joining their call to see if there’s a chance to fish in troubled waters.

After a brief reflection, she decided to subtly advise Medina.

The Light Chaser Legion is considered one of the larger Southern legions in the region.

Each Lord’s region is actually not small at all.

An area of 200 kilometers by 200 kilometers is enough to cover several prefecture-level cities on Earth.

Therefore, the region is generally divided into four sectors: East, West, South, and North.

Zong Shen’s location is roughly in the northeastern district of the region.

The Odo Village Ruins, located thirty kilometers from his territory, is close to the vertical division line of the area.

Jiang Yi’s position is roughly below the horizontal centerline of the region, leaning toward the southeast.

Her territory didn’t move and has always been seven or eight kilometers due south of Zong Shen’s territory in a straight line.

On these forty thousand square kilometers of land, over six thousand surviving Lords are scattered.

The social network between Lords is growing tighter as Legion developments and various group challenges emerge.

Medina’s Light Chaser Legion had shown goodwill to Zong Shen several times.

Although Medina had tried some tricks during the Burrow Challenge to get Jiang Yi to join his legion, upon witnessing Zong Shen’s power, he decisively changed his stance.

Not only did he actively cooperate with Zong Shen’s call, but he also privately compensated Jiang Yi with resources to seek her forgiveness. The two often exchanged views on challenge activities in private.

Furthermore, recently Medina had the intention of merging the Light Chaser into the Guides.

He wanted Jiang Yi to whisper in Zong Shen’s ear.

Of course, Medina also had demands, which was to become the second Deputy Legion Commander.

This matter Jiang Yi hadn’t reported to Zong Shen, temporarily suppressing it, at least considering the legion merger until after their upgrade was completed.

Since the Light Chaser Legion already has thoughts of merging, Jiang Yi must find ways to preserve their strength.

If Medina brings people into the Poison Swamp, they are bound to suffer heavy losses.

Jiang Yi can’t manage others, but she feels it’s necessary to discreetly remind the Light Chaser Legion.

Thinking of this, she opened the private chat channel and cautiously replied.

"Lord Zong asked me to pass on a message that it’s best not to bring people into the Poison Swamp."

After this message was sent, Medina replied within less than half a minute.

"Why?"

"Alright, I understand..."

He initially responded instinctively, then seemed to remember something and directly agreed.

Seeing his reply, Jiang Yi didn’t say more. She borrowed Zong Shen’s name as a pretext to act first and report later. However, this matter isn’t over, and once over two hundred Lords enter the Poison Swamp and if they alarm the Black Dragon, the secret of the swamp won’t remain hidden.

For reasons both public and private, she must immediately report this to Zong Shen!

There are about twenty minutes left until 1 PM.

She has already coordinated her team, and upon reporting, she can depart to search for the Little Flame Demon.

Jiang Yi retrieved the Communication Crystal treasured in the storage grid and chose to communicate with number 1.

As the Communication Crystal in her hand lit up, the Communication Crystal Tower in Zong Shen’s territory also began to emit a faint glow, while the crystal pinned on Zong Shen’s chest began to shine and vibrate.

"—Buzz Buzz"

"Who is it? Could the temporary combat squad be in trouble?"

Zong Shen raised an eyebrow and took off the Communication Crystal.

By this time, he had already wiped out the second wave of Flame Demons with Flying Tiger, Rasama, and Gujate, and was preparing to move towards the sides, gradually approaching the Burial Ground.

Flying Tiger, once airborne, allowed Zong Shen to lock onto targets in advance from the air.

They methodically cleared out the Little Flame Demons along the way in a zig-zag pattern, ultimately entering the Northern Forest.

At this critical moment, Zong Shen had just tasted success and was intending to do great things with the Beast Egg when the Communication Crystal started vibrating.

He cradled the Beast Egg in one arm while connecting the crystal communication with the other.

Jiang Yi’s voice was immediately transmitted from the crystal.

"Lord, some Lords are gathering in the South Region!"

"They plan to take advantage of the arrival of the Little Flame Demon to explore the Poisonous Mist Swamp."

"I’m worried they might alarm the Little Black Dragon you mentioned..."

Her tone was somewhat hurried, as it was the area she had prior claims to.

After hearing her out, Zong Shen couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

"Entering the Poison Swamp requires taking an antitoxic potion."

"These Lords can’t bring everyone along; each can at most bring a few or a dozen warriors in."

"Moreover, even the best antitoxic potion has a limited time effect."

"They can’t stay long."

"Once the Black Dragon awakens and leads the followers to attack, the Lords are certain to be defeated."
