329 Terrifying Swamp Devourer

The information they had received from the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce was too exaggerated. Claude frowned. According to them, Lord Su Wan supplied them with so many things and her territory was bountiful.

However, Lord Su Wan had only appeared in the Overlord Plane a few months ago. No matter how fast she might have developed her territory, the gain was simply too unrealistic in such a short time.

There were other Lords near the Frostwolf family estate, and they were considered pretty powerful. Yet, they couldn’t even compare to Lord Su Wan.

Moreover, Su Wan’s territory was beyond the Dark Swamp. This confused Tristana. In such a location, it would pose a lot of difficulties for a territory to develop properly.

Although the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce had told her of the territory, she didn’t believe it entirely.

As they got close to the territory, a scout rushed toward them on a horse. Tristana noticed that the soldier was terrified.

“There’s a Swamp Devourer ahead!”

Tristana looked into the distance. She could only see dark clouds. It was difficult to see if any creatures in the swamp ahead would pose a threat.

Although there was still some distance between them and the territory, they could already feel the ferocious aura.

The Swamp Devourer was the worst thing to run into!

“How far is it from us?”

“Not very far.”

“Build a protective wall. We can’t run away after coming all this way!” said Claude.

The soldiers worked meticulously, trying to create a protective barrier.

Sand and dust flew into the air. Fortunately, the Swamp Devourer wasn’t very fast.

When they were done creating a protective barrier, they hid inside and waited for the Swamp Devourer to arrive.

A few hours later, Tristana glanced into the distance again. ‘Why is it still not here?’

Seeing that there was no movement anywhere, she came out of hiding. “Are you sure it was a Swamp Devourer? Maybe you saw something else.”

“It was a Swamp Devourer! It was as clear as day. Maybe it stopped on the way?”

Tristana heaved a sigh of relief. Either way, they were safe for now.

“Send some scouts to investigate,” said Tristana.

Some scouts went ahead to check for the Swamp Devourer, while the rest waited anxiously. They did not dare to leave the protective barrier.

The scout returned half an hour later. They looked confused.

“What is it? What did you find?” asked Tristana.

“The Swamp Devourer isn’t moving.”

“It isn’t moving?” Tristana was confused.

“Take me there,” said Claude.

“Uncle Claude…”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be safe.”

Claude went with the scouts.

“This is extraordinary!” said Claude as he returned from his search. “I’ve seen nothing like this before! This territory indeed is magical. The Swamp Devourer isn’t moving to attack anyone.”

Tristana was intrigued. “Zorro didn’t mention that there was a place like this near the territory…”

“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” said Claude. “Maybe this place belongs to the territory and Lord Su Wan.”

‘Impossible!’ thought Tristana. Even Legendary Lords couldn’t own and control something like a Swamp Devourer!

Lord Su Wan had appeared a few months ago in the Overlord Plane. She couldn’t really have surpassed the Legendary level in such a short time!

Tristana was in disbelief. The whole swamp area was dangerous. How could it be created and controlled by a single Lord? It all seemed impossible.

She had met other Lords before. Even if they were considered strong, they weren’t powerful enough to manage something like this!

Even if Su Wan was strong, she couldn’t possibly control the whole swamp!

Tristana was stunned. If Lord Su Wan had such power and strength, why would she choose to live here of all places?

Since the Swamp Devourer wasn’t moving, they set off toward the direction of the territory. It was better for them to arrive as soon as possible.

They avoided the Swamp Devourer and made a beeline toward the territory. Even then, they could sense the terrifying danger of the whole swamp.

Tristana was frightened and impressed. If a Lord could create a swamp around the territory, then that would make the territory invincible to some extent.

Finally, they arrived at the territory. Tristana smiled in relief.

If she could convince the Lord to trade Scarlet Flame Demon Spider Silk with her, there would be nothing standing in her way!

‘I’ll definitely fulfill your wish, Mother!’ Tristana vowed. ‘I’ll have full control over the Frostwolf family like you wanted!’

She would make her mother’s wish come true, no matter the cost!

The group stopped a few paces away from the territory and didn’t try to barge in. Tristana sent a soldier to report on their arrival and to request an audience with Lord Su Wan.

Meanwhile, Tristana looked upon the territory with some interest.

The territory was not very big. In fact, it would be considered tiny when compared to the Frostwolf estates.

However, she was surprised to see numerous alchemy cannons placed on the city walls. It sent a chill down her spine.

Judging from the aura, the weapons were all above A-class. They could even be of S-class!

‘This territory is developing alchemy technology?!’
