Chapter 210: A Stroll in the Canyon
Chapter 210: A Stroll in the Canyon
There are many legends about Shadow Canyon, but the truth has never been revealed.
Many strong men would explore the depths of Shadow Canyon, especially the strong men of the demon clan. After all, in their opinion, this dangerous place with rich dark elements was tailor-made for them.
However, after those strong men have explored, no matter what they have discovered, they will choose to conceal it. After all, it is more interesting for people to solve the mystery themselves, isn't it?
Mo Fan and the other man were unaware of all this. They only knew that the black fog in front of them had completely dissipated, and there was no other reaction around them. They guessed that the monster was dead or had left. Only then did they leave with peace of mind.
After what happened just now, Xiyue also became alert.
Mo Fan didn't need it. Whether it was the perception of dark elements or the perception of surrounding magic after he started to specialize in magic these days, Mo Fan could detect the appearance of monsters in the first place. At least in this outer area, there was no black fog that could threaten Mo Fan.
The two began to walk deeper, encountering some scattered monsters along the way. After clearing the black fog, they found that the black fog was filled with mutated monsters, making it difficult to distinguish them.
"What the hell is this? Why does it look so disgusting?"
Looking at the pool of rotten meat on the ground, Mo Fan couldn't help but complain.
After all, the appearance of this pool of meat just now was really disgusting, with black tentacles growing on it, and the tentacles coming out from all parts of the body. Without the tentacles, this body looked like a rotten but not completely rotten corpse. It was the kind that still had meat on it.
For such a corpse, the two of them naturally wanted to kill it and then see if they could identify what kind of monster it was through the bones.
But it failed, it was so disgusting that both of them couldn't stand it.
After the black fog dissipated, the body began to rot immediately. After a while, only bones were left, and the bones were gradually corroded. It would not be long before the bones turned into ashes and disappeared here.
In this situation, Mo Fan and the others had no choice but to give up and move on.
Some people may be curious, in this Shadow Canyon, besides herbs and other materials, this monster has nothing to drop, so why do so many adventurers come here to explore?
The reason is simple, the risk is not high, the income is stable, and there are no extra benefits.
The dark elements are dense in the canyon, so most weapons will be corroded. However, there are always some weapons that will not be corroded, and these weapons are one of the unexpected gains.
In addition to weapons, there are other things, such as ores. The canyon is very deep, so people often dig up precious ores in the canyon, and then forge a good weapon at the blacksmith's place. Or they can sell the ores to a wealthy buyer, which is also very good.
Also, there are corpses in the no-man's land.
Due to the characteristics of Shadow Canyon, every corpse here will be corroded and nothing will be left. So many corpses in the No Man's Land will be thrown here. If there are any missing storage bags on the corpses, then we can pick them up.
Even if none of the above are available, the exploration teams can choose to dig some ores with high concentrations of dark elements in the depths, or take some herbs. The materials collected in the depths are of very good quality, and the Adventurer's Association will also have long-term commissions to be responsible for recycling such materials.
From this perspective, compared to the Dark Forest where monsters are rampant, Shadow Canyon is much safer. Compared to the dungeons in the Labyrinth, the benefits are not low.
So naturally, many adventurers would choose to make a living here.
Mo Fan and Xi Yue continued to move forward, and the monsters they encountered along the way were quickly dealt with. Whether it was Mo Fan's magic or Xi Yue's light element attack, they could effectively eliminate these monsters. Of course, it could also be because the monsters were too weak.
"You don't need melee attacks anymore?"
Xiyue seemed a little puzzled by Mo Fan's constant use of magic. After all, Mo Fan had always fought with his fists and rarely used magic, let alone fighting entirely with magic.
"Well, I haven't received any professional training in my boxing and kicking skills. If I have to use them, they're just so-so. So I might as well develop my strengths."
Xiyue nodded to Mo Fan's explanation without saying anything. She could see that Mo Fan, who used magic, was indeed much harder to deal with. The development of all elements made Mo Fan almost without any weaknesses. In terms of close combat, Mo Fan was not like ordinary magicians who would lie down when they were attacked. And there was also blood magic...
Magical bombardment can restrain attributes, and close combat can stalemate for a while. Even if you are injured, you can recover.
Xiyue found it hard to imagine how terrifying Mo Fan would be if he grew up.
At the same time, he was also somewhat fortunate that as a brave man, he did not have to fight against the demons.
The two of them were not moving fast, and could even be said to be a little slow. The monsters they encountered along the way also began to become a little difficult to deal with. Mo Fan began to stop and let Xiyue practice. The ones in front were too weak, so the two of them just quickly cleared them out.
Mo Fan was responsible for monitoring Xiyue's formation and observing her battle at the same time.
After watching for a while, Mo Fan felt that Pei Ming was quite good at teaching. Mo Fan originally thought that Pei Ming, the giant swordsman, taught some big and powerful moves, which might not be suitable for Xi Yue to learn, after all, Xi Yue did not use heavy weapons.
But who knew that the swordsmanship Xiyue was using at this time was both agile and pleasing to the eye. Moreover, she could advance or retreat, not giving the monster any chance to take advantage. She was slowly forcing the monster to death, not giving it any chance to counterattack.
However, Mo Fan also discovered the flaw of this sword technique, that is, if the enemy attacks too fiercely, it may be impossible to stop it. Also, if the enemy is determined to escape, Xiyue may find it difficult to stop the enemy.
The battle was over soon, and facing Mo Fan's summary, Xiyue also opened her mouth and acknowledged Mo Fan's statement.
"These shortcomings do exist. Even if I practice this sword technique to perfection, these two shortcomings will probably still exist. But Dean Pei said that after I have mastered this set, he will teach me other sword techniques. By then, when I have mastered them thoroughly, these problems will no longer exist."
"I saw you were very agile in the fight just now. Do you have any body movements?"
"Yes, it's the body movement that goes with this sword technique. I practiced both together."
Mo Fan expressed his deep envy of Xiyue's words. Xiyue also asked what Mo Fan's training was like. After Mo Fan told Xiyue about the arena, Xiyue was quite excited and said she wanted to try it.
