Chapter 486: Chapter 237: Lin Mo’s Psychological Shadow

"Watch out, it’s a Rotting Giant Frog!"

Deke, looking serious, warned from the side, "The slime on this thing’s skin and tongue is poisonous."

And compared to the Black Mud Monsters from before, the Rotting Giant Frog’s Level was much higher.

The one that appeared before them had already reached Level 3.

The Rotting Giant Frog spotted its "prey" and immediately shot out its several-meter-long tongue, lashing toward them.

Lin Mo’s eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He immediately used [Meteor Sting].

The powerful Qi Force instantly left a bloody hole in the giant frog, and its disgusting tongue lost all strength, flopping to the ground.

[Meteor Sting] Skill Level +20

Although it was still an easy one-shot kill, the opponents they were encountering were clearly growing stronger. The Adventurers became more serious, and the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed as before.

They gradually reached the middle section of the Blackwater Swamp. By now, the Demons they encountered were generally Level 3-5, and they had even started seeing Lord Level Demons.

For example, right now, there was the enormous, yellowish monster before them.

A Slime...

That’s right. This swampy region not only had Slime-like Demons such as the Black Mud Monster, but also actual Slimes.

The Slime in front of them was about ten meters tall, looking like a small hill blocking their path.

This was also what made Route 11 more troublesome than the other two routes.

More people used the other two routes, which meant the Demons along the way were cleared out frequently. In contrast, few people chose Route 11, and it was difficult to maintain. As a result, one might encounter Demons nesting along the path or enormous ones blocking the way.

Deke unsheathed his sword, preparing to strike.

’This thing is probably Level 6 or 7. Luke and Hahn won’t be able to handle it quickly.’

Lin Mo looked at the giant Mire Slime before him, a headache coming on.

For Warriors who lacked area-of-effect Skills, a creature like a Slime usually had to be defeated by destroying or removing its core.

’Looks like I have to use Magic.’

’In this situation, Ice Elemental Magic would be the most effective.’

Frost Ice Elements rapidly gathered in his palm, flying forward and transforming into falling snowflakes.

[Blizzard]!

He didn’t use the higher-tier [Frost Storm]. For one, he wanted to conserve some of his strength; for another, it simply wasn’t necessary.

Blizzard was more than enough.

The swirling snow, carrying a frigid temperature, froze the Mire Slime in an instant.

Deke immediately rushed over and quickly found the Slime’s core.

With the Slime frozen, its core could no longer move. Deke struck directly, and a huge wave of Sword Qi flew out, instantly slicing the hill-sized Slime in half.

A Warrior approaching the Elite Level was indeed very strong.

’What a pity, though. All that Skill Level wasted...’

Lin Mo didn’t choose to follow up with another Skill, because his Magic Attribute was so high that the Mire Slime had actually already died the moment it was frozen.

He had tested it before. He could steal kills from others, but he couldn’t steal a kill from himself.

In other words, he couldn’t use a second Skill to poach the Skill Level from a Skill that had already landed a killing blow or fatal wound.

And since his [Blizzard] Skill was already at Full Level, the experience was unfortunately wasted.

’It would be great if Skills could be improved even after reaching Full Level...’

’That way, I wouldn’t have to worry about the awkward situation of rarely using them after they’re maxed out.’

Unfortunately, no such mechanic existed, at least for now. He didn’t know if that would change in the future.

By noon, since the caravan had never slowed its pace and had been pushing forward relentlessly, they had traveled nearly halfway through the Blackwater Swamp.

But the journey in the afternoon would undoubtedly be even more arduous, and the Demons they encountered would be even stronger.

In another three or four hours, they would reach the most critical and dangerous area of the mission.
