Although she had been hesitant when everyone talked about it yesterday, the druid girl Doric was kind-hearted after all. Therefore, early the next morning, she resolutely went with Edkin and Simon

Say goodbye to Holgai and the other three, and prepare to set off to Leilong Town and the Swamp of the Dead to find out.

After all, she herself was raised by the wood elves in the Neverwinter Forest. Without those kind-hearted wood elves, she, a tiefling abandoned baby, would have starved to death long ago! And if Neverwinter City was destroyed by the evil Sel wizard

If so, under the cold weather, the Neverwinter Forest and the Wood Elves, which are under the rule of Neverwinter City, will certainly not be able to preserve their home in the forest. Therefore, Doric must protect her both in public and private matters.

Go there and find out as much as possible about the conspiracy against Neverwinter.

"Then, shall I set off first?"

"Simon!"

"You actually don't need to go to the intersection fortress to provide support. I'm sure it will be fine!"

"It will only take two or three days at most before I can return to Neverwinter City. Maybe you won't be able to get to the fortress by then!"

"never mind."

"That's it, I'm leaving first!"

After saying that, Doric felt that he might not be able to persuade Simon, nor could he change some of Edkin's arrangements, so he simply said no more, just jumped up to the high wall of the castle, and then finally turned back

After taking a look, and then under the exclamations of everyone and the Neverwinter guards on duty around him, he opened his hands and jumped down towards the streets of Neverwinter City below.

Then!

Just before she was about to land on the ground and be thrown into a puddle of flesh, she suddenly twisted around and transformed into a swift in full view of the public. She fluttered her wings and flew high, causing the sound of wind and soft cries from her wings to break through.

It broke into the silent sky and flew south at high speed with lightning speed.

Such a situation naturally caused the Neverwinter guards on the castle and the Neverwinter citizens below who noticed the situation to exclaim again and cast admiring glances at the 'Swift' that left at high speed.

look.

But Doric didn't care about the situation in Neverwinter City behind her. After just a few flapping movements, she quickly flew away from the outer wall of Neverwinter City and the busy city at an extremely fast speed.

pier area, and began flying at high speed hundreds of meters in the air.

The territory of Neverwinter City is not large, so of course it is not far from Leilong Town.

The straight-line distance is about three to five hundred miles. If you ride a horse and the horse is fast, you can probably reach it in one day. If you march on foot, no matter how slow it is, it will only take three or four days. However, Doric is currently flying.

It will take only two to three hours at most.

Therefore, what she just said was not an excuse. She was indeed confident that she would complete all the tasks within two or three days and return to report the situation, especially since that guy Genk still had that particularly conspicuous 'fat orange' with him.

Next, as long as they don't run into the dungeon, she guarantees that she can find them by just flying around the Swamp of the Dead!

However……

When Doric flew away from the city of Neverwinter and flew south along the coast of the Sword Coast for less than half an hour, she was only a few dozen miles away.

Suddenly, there was a sharp roar and the sound of wind.

Next!

A powerful eagle unexpectedly appeared in the sky behind her at some point, and swooped down from above. At the same time, the opponent's sharp claws were viciously aimed at Doric's body.

The back of that swift was scratched off?

"?!"

Fortunately, Doric is not a real swift, so of course she will not be afraid of that mere raptor!

You know, the reason why she chose to become a swift is just because swifts fly faster. She can transform into something else at any time as long as she needs it.

so!

After the initial panic and accident, she quickly turned around and transformed into a strong owlbear in the air before the opponent's sharp claws could actually catch her.

She grabbed the steel-like claws of the eagle that wanted to hunt her, and held it tightly in the claws of the owlbear she had transformed into.

‘!!’

Upon seeing this, the huge eagle was naturally surprised and frightened, and began to struggle and flap its wings vigorously in an attempt to get away.

It's a pity that although the huge mountain eagle is said to be able to hunt wild wolves, foxes, goats and even deer, the size and weight of the Doric-transformed hero is still a bit too big and heavy.

That pair of wings definitely couldn't support each other's weight.

Therefore, after two giant birds (owl bears?) fought and struggled in the air, they finally continued to lower their altitude until they both fell into the sea.

"..."

The hero Doric transformed into fell into the sea with the other party, sinking deeper and deeper on both sides. After feeling that the surrounding water pressure made it impossible for her to breathe freely, and after feeling that the lesson she had given to the giant eagle was enough, she

He quickly let go of the opponent, transformed into a dolphin, started swimming at high speed and rushed to the sea.

To be honest, she herself didn't know why that giant raptor would suddenly attack the petrel she had turned into, which had only a few ounces of meat on its body. That was a very, very rare phenomenon, but it wouldn't be a good idea if it happened to her.

There was too much entanglement, so I just swam forward with all my strength, preparing to jump out of the sea with all my strength and continue to fly southward into a swift or a seagull or something.

However, just as she was swimming at high speed, she was about to reach the swaying sea surface and was about to speed up and jump into the air.

Very unexpected!

She actually saw a huge tentacle quickly stretching out from the sea behind her?

"??"

Then, the huge octopus tentacles tightly wrapped around her without giving her any chance to react, dragging the dolphin she had transformed into again, and soon dragged her to where she and the giant octopus were just now.

The eagle fell into the deep sea at least tens of meters deep?

"!!"

Only then did Doric see clearly. It turned out that it was a huge and terrifying phosphorescent beast?

However, what she couldn't figure out was that when she and the giant eagle fell down, they didn't see such a huge creature here, so why did it suddenly appear?

And that’s it!

The giant eagle that attacked her just now seemed to have disappeared, and she didn't know whether it had surfaced and fluttered away again or whether it had been swallowed up by the opponent.

But no matter what, Doric only knew that she had to get out of trouble quickly, otherwise, her end would probably not be too good.

then!

Before the huge sea beast could roll up the dolphin she transformed into and send it into the huge mouth full of ferocious teeth, she quickly transformed into a smaller tuna, and took advantage of the opponent's original appearance.

Taking advantage of the moment when his huge tentacles became loose, he hurriedly took the opportunity to shake his head and tail and quickly jumped forward. Taking advantage of the tuna's speed, he quickly escaped a long distance.

"..."

so close!

After getting out of danger, Doric sighed secretly.

To be honest, she herself didn't know why she was so unlucky today. First, not far from Neverwinter City, she encountered a giant raptor in the sky that rarely attacked small swifts. Then, she encountered that kind of bird again when she got into the sea.

The terrifying large sea beast, it’s true that misfortunes never come singly!

Then, she couldn't help but start to reflect, wondering if she shouldn't agree to Edkin's request this time?

After all, she was not an official of Neverwinter City, but now she was asked to take risks and do such dangerous things. If you think about it carefully, it was indeed a bit excessive.

"??"

However, just as he had taken the opportunity to swim a long distance and was about to escape, Doric saw in horror:

In the sea above her, a long tentacle unexpectedly appeared above her tuna that was jumping forward quickly?

The next moment!

Before she could make any reaction, the terrifying tentacle cut through the water and drew directly towards her.

"!!"

At that moment, Doric's head was hit hard.

Then, she felt dizzy for a moment, and then she could no longer maintain the druid transformation. She curled up and slowly transformed back into her delicate tiefling body and allowed the ferocious sea beast to use its tentacles.

He rolled up her body and pulled her back again.

"..."

There is no doubt that that blow directly knocked Doric's brain into confusion.

Anyway!

In a daze, all she could see with her half-opened eyes was: the extremely ferocious, octopus-like phosphorescent tide beast started to pull her hard into its huge mouth again.

The rest of the tentacles slowly reached into her collar and pants, and after some groping, they quickly tore off all the clothes on her body in the sea water?

Then, in the midst of Doric's frightened and confused despair, the other party just threw her smooth body, with horns on her head and a tail behind her butt, into the horror full of sharp teeth.

In the huge mouth.

"..."

Just like that, floating in the sea and slowly moving towards the ferocious mouth, Doric, who was weak and defenseless, knew that she had no way to escape and had no ability to resist. She was afraid that this would be the case today.

Inexplicably, he was buried at the bottom of the sea, buried in the huge mouth of the sea beast.
