Bizarre Voyage: Summoning The Fourth Crisis

On a small boat in the distance, a man in a gray robe slowly lowered the Telescope in his hands, which squirmed like a Sea Anemone.

”Ooooh~”

”Toying with corpses, so bloody and full of Madness... to think he actually created such a vile Fire of Life.”

”What a terrifying Candlefire he is...”

The man clicked his tongue in wonder. Without a doubt, he had seen everything Forgotten Dao had just done.

If Li Miao were here now and saw this man’s face, he would surely be stunned for a moment.

Because this man’s appearance was identical to that of ”Le Ti” from the ”Shadow of Deceit,” who had previously appeared on the Casa Peninsula map.

Of course, the clothes he was wearing were different.

However, Luo Ge would not have been surprised by this.

Although he had burned the Le Ti on the Casa Peninsula to cinders, there was more than one Le Ti in the Shadow of Deceit.

”The righteous Le Ti cannot simply stand by and watch you vile creatures burn so wantonly...”

”But these wicked fellows are also quite cunning. I’ll have to come up with a good idea...”

After speaking in such a self-righteous tone, Le Ti stroked his chin and fell into thought.

...

After obtaining the Mire Copper Serpent’s Snake Eyes, Forgotten Dao began heading in the direction they indicated.

He encountered some swamp monsters along the way, but most of them posed little threat.

Moreover, compared to some of the utterly terrifying monsters he had faced before, the ones in this swamp weren’t exactly pretty, but at least they weren’t as frightening.

After seeing enough Parasites and Rotting Prisoners, looking back at these monsters might even make them seem a little cute.

Of course, that didn’t mean this swamp was completely devoid of danger.

”Blasphemy! Blasphemy!”

”Bury! Bury!”

Shrill, piercing voices issued from the mouths of several giant mosquitoes. They were draped in vines and green algae, holding twisted Wooden Bows.

They were Mosquito Archers, Level 18 monsters of the Ember Tier.

Although they didn’t seem very threatening, it all depended on the situation.

For instance, the current situation was not exactly favorable for Forgotten Dao.

He had just sailed into a narrow channel overgrown with dead trees, making him a living target in the eyes of these Mosquito Archers.

”Kill! Kill!”

The Mosquito Archers shrieked a few times. After leaving a visible layer of slime on their Arrows with their long proboscises, they drew their bows mid-air and aimed at Forgotten Dao below.

”Mosquitoes? And they’re this big?”

Forgotten Dao clicked his tongue in amazement. ’If one of those sucked my blood,’ he thought, ’I’d probably shrivel up like a raisin.’

While muttering to himself, he didn’t forget to dodge the incoming Arrows.

He lifted one Sacrificial Living Corpse, and the others instinctively surrounded him, forming a human shield that blocked the flying Arrows completely.

SQUELCH! SQUELCH!

The sound of Arrows piercing flesh rang out continuously. Hiding inside the cluster of Sacrificial Living Corpses, Forgotten Dao observed for a moment through a gap, then stealthily reached out a hand. He unleashed a crimson blast, picking off the Mosquito Archers one by one.

”Terrifying! Terrifying!”

After he killed several of them, the remaining Mosquito Archers shrieked. Seemingly terrified, they began to flee.

Seeing this, Forgotten Dao pushed aside the Sacrificial Living Corpses, glanced around, and then put his hands on his hips.

”Stupid mosquitoes. They all deserve to be swatted flat!”

”Heh heh, haha...”

As luck would have it, the consequences of his character losing control struck again.

SPLASH!

At that very moment, the swamp churned, and from the water before and behind him, two gigantic Bronze hands suddenly shot out, clapping toward him and his Spirit Fire Sail with immense Power.

’I’m screwed!’

Seeing this, Forgotten Dao’s pupils shrank, and his scalp went numb with dread.

’Talk about speaking of the devil!’

’Dodge, dodge!’

’Stop fucking laughing and let me dodge! Damn it!’

Forgotten Dao’s face contorted with panic as he desperately tried to regain control of his body.

WHOOSH—

The two giant palms descended with the Howl of the wind, clumps of thick mud falling from them incessantly.

BAM!

The palms slammed together. Bloody mud splattered everywhere as a massive shockwave and gust of air swept across the entire swamp, kicking up sizable waves.

”Phew...”

”That was a close one.”

In the distance, Forgotten Dao, who was hanging from a tree branch, wiped away his sweat. He winced as he untangled himself from the branch and took out his Spirit Fire Sail again.

’So it turns out the Mosquito Archers weren’t afraid of me, the mosquito killer, but of those Bronze hands that could swat them flat in one go!’

’No wonder they ran away!’

Forgotten Dao tossed a Recovery Wax Block into his mouth, and the wound on his abdomen gradually healed.

’But... how am I going to get past this now?’

’If I take a detour, given the nature of this dungeon, it’ll probably be impossible to get back here. The chances of finding that swamp house up ahead would be practically zero.’

That was right. The reason he hadn’t immediately put away his Spirit Fire Sail and fled was because of what lay ahead.

At the end of the narrow channel surrounded by dead trees, a small wooden cabin was faintly visible.

And the Snake Eyes were pointing here as well.

That was why Forgotten Dao was reluctant to leave.

If the situation hadn’t been so critical just now, he wouldn’t have even been willing to use the Substitute Sacrifice, precisely because he was afraid of getting lost again.

After thinking for a long time, Forgotten Dao finally turned his gaze to the Sacrificial Living Corpse at his side and chuckled slyly.

’Since it’s come to this, I’ll just have to trouble my Living Corpse friend again.’

...

BAM!

The giant Bronze hand reappeared and, with a single slap, flattened the Sacrificial Living Corpse floating on the water’s surface into a pulp before gradually sinking back down.

Seizing the opportunity, Forgotten Dao sprinted forward and dashed past.

The heavy sound of clapping came from behind him again, but it clearly no longer posed any threat to Forgotten Dao.
