Chapter 552 Thunder Swamp
The day after arriving at the Thunder Swamp Camp, Thain failed to follow the mission instructions to repair and build the magic tower at the fortress base.
Instead, he went straight to Thunder Swamp east of the camp.
Fortunately, the fighting near the camp is not fierce now, and the tasks that Thain received before were not time-limited mandatory tasks.
Therefore, his going out does not violate the orders of the combat headquarters.
For these magicians, the combat headquarters of the Knights Hall will often provide greater relaxation and freedom.
Before leaving, Thain personally prepared some alchemical potions for his father Kelman.
Thain himself has made some achievements in the field of pharmacy, and he got a lot of good things in the Knight Continent trial area this time.
It was much more reliable for him to take care of his father's injury himself than others.
Seeing this, great-grandfather Jeremy also breathed a sigh of relief.
He was satisfied with Thain's performance.
"Where are you going?" Jerami asked before Thain left the fortress camp.
"The turmoil in the eastern area of Thunder Swamp has not been resolved for a long time. I plan to go and have a look." Thain replied.
Because Thain was maintaining a state of calm at this time, Jeramy did not see through Thain's true identity, and he did not know for the time being that Thain had snatched the head of a second-level knight when he first came to the Thunder World battlefield.
Therefore, this elder with a blood relationship with Thane frowned slightly and said: "The turmoil in the eastern part of Thunder Swamp cannot be solved by one or two knights and magicians."
"Every once in a while, there will be a planned counterattack by the indigenous creatures of the Thunder World."
"In the last battle, there was even a shadow of a second-level thunder world creature. Your great-grandfather Ulysses went there just to investigate this matter and patrol the nearby area." Jerami said.
As a knight who has been in the war for many years, Jeremy is obviously more familiar with the world of thunder than Thane.
"Why are native creatures always invading an area that has been conquered? How did they get here? I plan to go and see."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything reckless." Thain said.
Although Thain's surname is Grant, there is always a slight estrangement from his family due to his childhood experiences.
In addition to his status as the disciple of the tower master, Jeremy could not pretend to be an elder and directly reprimand and ask him for something.
After sighing, Jerami threw a small crystal ball to Thane.
"There is a detailed map of the nearby area. Come back soon."
"Kelman was talking about you before he fell into coma. I believe the first person he saw when he opened his eyes would be you," Jerami said.
Thain nodded, and then a ball of green elemental fire ignited on his body, and he quickly left the fortress camp and flew towards the east.
Watching Thain leave, Jeremy murmured in a low voice: "This kid has grown so fast? The elemental pressure that just broke out, even if it's me..."
"Is this the benefit of having a tower master as a mentor?"
…
Thunder Swamp is one of the four fortress bases deployed by the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall in the Thunder World, and its strategic value must be considerable.
In addition to the discovery of many large thunder diamond veins deep in the swamp, this fortress camp also serves as the main battlefield in the northeast and southwest directions.
The battlefield in the northeast is the joint battlefield between the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall and the Qinglan Wind Knight Hall.
These two knight halls are both staffed by fourth-level knights.
Moreover, the two knight halls have always had a good relationship, otherwise they would not have been called to help by the Thunder Knight Hall.
The battlefield in the southwest is under the responsibility of the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall itself.
Nowadays, nearly half of the tens of thousands of knights and hundreds of thousands of slave biological legions that the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall has thrown into the Thunder World are on the Thunder Plains in the southwest.
The intensity there was much more exaggerated than that near Thunder Swamp.
Including the only space fortress in the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall, and the fourth-level knight with the title of "Steel Wall Fist" himself, are also on that battlefield.
The special role and significance of Thunder Swamp made the combat headquarters of the Steel Wall Fist Knight Hall attach great importance to this place.
This is an important intersection connecting the two surrounding war zones in the east and west. The indigenous creatures in the Thunder World are not stupid, so they can naturally see the value of this place.
Therefore, even though Thunder Swamp has been ostensibly occupied by the Wizarding World Legion, the fighting taking place nearby has not stopped yet.
Those creatures in the Thunder World are very good at making use of the terrain. They have built hidden underground caves in the mud deep in the swamp.
The combat headquarters has always suspected that there is an underground space under the Thunder Swamp with extremely developed branches that can connect to other areas.
However, due to the lack of specialized investigators, the specific coordinates of this underground space have not been found, let alone how many entrances it has.
Thain's father, Kelman Grant, was on duty at a mine drilling mine in Thunder Swamp when he was besieged by the local guerrilla army that suddenly appeared in Thunder Swamp.
Although the mine was defended at the time, eleven first-class knights, including Grant, were injured and three first-class knights were killed.
Kelman's luck was worse, and he was the most seriously injured among them.
But his luck wasn't too bad, at least he didn't die on the spot.
For knights like Kelman Grant who have just been promoted to the first level, the fortress headquarters is still very humane when issuing tasks. Most of them are garrison and patrol tasks, and they are rarely allowed to go directly to the front line of the main battlefield.
But who knew that an ordinary garrison mission could turn out to be so tragic.
No, it was actually the Thunder Knights Hall, the Steel Wall Fist Knights Hall and the Qinglan Wind Knights Hall, which seriously underestimated the overall strength of the Thunder World.
It would be a bit difficult for the three knight halls to jointly attack this world.
According to the current battle situation on the front line, it is still unclear how long this plane war will last.
…
The electrical element of Thunder Swamp is very much alive.
This is a type of element that Thane has rarely been exposed to before.
The violent attributes of thunder and lightning elements are much greater than those of fire elements.
Many knights and magicians who have just come to the Luo Lei World to join the war are not able to adapt to the harsh environment of this world.
There is always someone who will be struck by lightning suddenly when flying in the sky.
This is the characteristic of the world of thunder.
Thain quickly adapted to the plane environment here after arriving in Luo Lei World.
"Crack!" With a sound, a blue-purple electric light fell from the sky and struck Thain.
Apart from feeling a slight numbness in his body, there was not much impact on him in other aspects.
"There!" The subtle movement beneath the black swamp in the distance caught Thain's attention.
Covered by the powerful mental power of a first-level peak magician, it was impossible for him to ignore any slight movement within a kilometer.
A huge fireball had ignited on the top of the Heart of Jade Fire magic wand in his hand, and killing and fleeing took place here.
