“Um… an ancient person once said that as long as you can do it, you can do it. If you can’t, you can still do it! That’s why I think I can do it!” Lin Bai said indifferently.

“Which ancient person said that?!” Cage frowned.

“My mom!”

Lin Bai replied casually!

Cage’s face turned red. He took a deep breath and said, “Lin Bai, do you know that the first test you have to pass on your way to the Gloomy Forest is the Death Swamp? You can’t even leave Orlando City!”

Orlando City was different from other large cities. In the beginning, it was a new city that had been established by Merlin in the Death Mystic Realm.

Although the monsters in the Land of Death had been eliminated by Merlin’s powerful magic, they were still surrounded by the Death Swamp.

Even if the members of the Adventurer’s Guild wanted to enter and leave Orlando, they had to team up with more than ten experienced Hunters.

Ordinary people could forget about leaving this place for the rest of their lives.

Thus, Orlando was also jokingly called the Cage of Peace.

Those who wanted to live here were exiled for generations. It was very difficult for them to see the outside world.

“Then how did they get out?” Lin Bai pointed to the office of the Adventurer’s Guild.

Cage was so angry that he almost had a heart attack. He slapped the table and said, “They’re protected by groups of Hunters! What about you? Do you two new students know how long the Death Swamp is? It’s more than a hundred kilometers long!”

Ordinary people would take two days to pass through the tunnel at their fastest speed. However, during these two days, they would definitely encounter terrifying monsters like giant swamp snakes and wild scorpions.

They might even encounter the Master of the Swamp!

It was a terrifying existence. It was said that this monster was invulnerable to swords and spears. Only a team of at least four Mages could kill it.

As for Lin Bai and Su Ya, they were a Reader and an Assassin respectively. They were not participating in the Elementary Test. They were simply delivery men!

“Oh, 100 kilometers. It’ll take about two days. It’s fine as my body is great. Look at my long legs. I was born good at running!” Lin Bai said casually.

“Lin Bai, oh Lin Bai! Why are you unrepentant!”

Cage thought for a moment and said quickly, “It’s fine if you insist on going. Bring back the Master of the Swamp in two days. I have no objections as long as you kill it yourself, regardless of whether its dead or alive!”

“Otherwise, I’d rather quit as a professor than allow you to joke around with your lives!”

Cage’s teaching standards were indeed very ordinary, but his heart touched Lin Bai.

If a university professor lost his job, he would be worse than a cleaner. Due to the characteristics of his Class, no other place could take him in.

In other words, Cage was saving the lives of two students in exchange for his own life.

“Professor. I’ll definitely bring back the Master of the Swamp for you to see in two days! Um… I want to go to the library to check on some information first!”

Just by hearing this name, the Master of the Swamp was the most terrifying existence in the Death Swamp. Lin Bai also did not dare to be careless. As the saying went, know yourself and your enemy, and you would never be defeated in a hundred battles!

There was no mistake in understanding the strengths and weaknesses of his opponent.

“I’m going too!” Su Ya suddenly stood up and said sternly.

Hunting the Master of the Swamp was extremely risky. Two Su Family assassins had both died at the hands of the Master of the Swamp. However, Su Ya also wanted to experience what it was like to face such a terrifying creature.

“Su Ya! Sit down!” Cage said with a frown.

He mainly wanted Lin Bai to back off, not to let the two of them risk their lives in the Death Swamp.

“It’s better if I go by myself. Otherwise, your chest will block my vision!” Lin Bai picked up his bag and rolled his eyes at Su Ya as he quickly walked towards the library.

The entire class of over 40 boys stared at Lin Bai in unison. The entire classroom was silent.

“How dare you say that about my goddess! That brat Lin Bai!”

“Watch how I deal with him!”

“Is it really blocking our view?”

“Damn! Do you want to die! Hit him!”

Hearing the curses from the classroom behind him, Lin Bai smiled.

This time, when facing the Master of the Swamp, Lin Bai naturally would not bring Su Ya along.

On the one hand, this woman would only be a hindrance. On the other hand, Lin Bai also wanted to know exactly how his current strength was.

Smashing that huge rock couldn’t prove anything. After all, it was an inanimate object. However, the Master of the Swamp was different. At the very least, it was a terrifying existence in the Death Swamp.

Although there were existences even more terrifying than the Master of the Swamp, none of that was important.

After coming to the library, this time, Lin Bai went straight to the fifth row bookshelves. He found a book introducing the Death Swamp and read it seriously.

According to the introduction from his predecessors, the terrifying thing about the Master of the Swamp was that its entire body was covered in scales that were as hard as steel. Ordinary physical attacks were almost useless against it.

Even a Mage’s lightning attack could only delay its speed.

Thus far, the largest such creature in the records was over 40 meters long and over two meters tall. It had the head of a crocodile, the body of a lizard, and eight legs. It was extremely agile both on land and underwater.

However, it was not without its weaknesses. Its weakness was on its soft belly, but it was almost impossible to get close to its soft belly!

After putting down the book in his hand, Lin Bai took a deep breath and quickly left the library.

Less than twenty kilometers after leaving Orlando City, the surrounding trees became more sparse. When Lin Bai entered the periphery of the Death Swamp, he saw a pile of white bones by the side of the road.

The skeleton of an unknown animal was blown to the ground by a cold wind.

Lin Bai subconsciously raised his guard.

“Gulp!”

Not too far away, a huge figure that was as thick as a water bucket entered the swamp.

A crow standing on a branch let out an extremely miserable cry as it stared fixedly at Lin Bai.

It was as if the crow were waiting for him to die miserably in this swamp and turn him into its dinner.

Then, an extremely unpleasant smell entered Lin Bai’s nostrils. Lin Bai forced himself to stay awake and advanced another ten kilometers.

Suddenly, the nearby mud moved slightly.

Lin Bai looked over and saw a huge body that was 17 or 18 meters long slowly crawl out of the mud.

When it climbed to the shore, its two rows of incomparably sharp teeth were like swords that clashed with one another, causing one to feel fear at the sight of them.

With the afterglow of the setting sun, one could clearly see countless scales shining with green light that covered the entire body of this monster. Then, a pair of cold beast eyes slowly opened!

“The Master of the Swamp!” Lin Bai subconsciously took a step back.

Pa da!

The sound of Lin Bai stepping on the water quickly attracted the attention of the Master of the Swamp. As its huge body slowly turned, its cold eyes suddenly opened, staring fixedly at Lin Bai, who was not far away.

Roar!

As the Master of the Swamp let out a furious roar, Lin Bai’s heart sank. Then, he took out his magic wand..
