The Undead Legion also stopped outside the Land of Filth.
Their formation changed from offensive to defensive, as they began eliminating the surrounding monsters and reducing consumption at the same time.
“As instructed by the Lord, Bone Four, you will remain outside as support.”
Isloa ordered.
Bone Four nodded. The strategy had been arranged long ago. Precisely because it needed to command and hold the line, the Lord chose it to lead the legion.
Bone Four understood the intention.
The focus was on defense and stability.
The purpose of their Undead Legion was not to annihilate the emerging monsters. They needed to shrink their formation, avoid the brunt of the monster wave, and replenish the consumption from the previous battles.
If the extermination squad was at a disadvantage, they might have to protect the division leaders and retreat.
They carried great responsibility.
As for Bone Four—Nigu Lasi, it would certainly carry out its mission orders thoroughly.
Isloa took out several recently concocted Ice Clear Potions and distributed them among the group. “The potion is not a panacea,” she explained, “it significantly reduces the erosion speed of the Red Fog on us. As long as we’re not severely injured, after drinking the potion, we’d have about 4 to 6 hours of absolute safety… Due to the lack of detailed data, the exact duration cannot be predicted.”
“Afterwards, we will inevitably be afflicted with debuffs such as ‘Mental Weakness’, ‘Dizziness’, ‘Bloodshot Eyes’, and so on. Then, after a while, symptoms like ‘Auditory Illusions’, ‘Visual Hallucinations’ and so on will appear… If by this stage we still can’t eliminate the Nest of Filth, we can only tactically retreat.”
Duo Lai: “Oh oh oh.”
Wait, how many stages did she mention just now?
That’s not very important.
“Okay, let’s move.”
Duo Lai swung his big hand.
He raised his head and gulped down the potion. Immediately, it felt as if a cool stream was flowing through his body, finally rushing into his sea of consciousness. His mind became crystal clear, and then…
Nothing else.
No particular taste.
The Dagger Group immediately gathered.
Duo Lai, Isloa, Lu Liu, Hong Yi, Rakshasa, Uta, Lainey, Xi Liu.
In addition to the eight division leaders, there were also ten squad and platoon leaders from the Defensive Troops. They all possessed the rank of Excellence Three-star and had cultivated to the Elite Mid-High Level.
A total of eighteen powerful individuals set foot in the Land of Filth.
Immediately, the Red Fog engulfed them.
From the outside, the Land of Filth was concealed under the drifting red mist, making it unclear, but only by stepping inside could one understand the terror within.
The sky and the earth, everything in the field of vision was filled with ominous red.
The visibility was extremely low. After a short walk in, they could no longer see the outside scenery. They seemed to be trapped in it, surrounded by enemies on all sides.
Buzz—
Around Isloa, one Starlight Law Sphere after another flew out, scattering like floating machines. From the eye of the sphere, wave after wave of light rays shot out, and with loud bangs, the attacking monsters around them were blasted to pieces.
This was both her ability and a special creation.
The originally only skill-manifested Magic Sphere was modified into physical equipment.
The advantage of this was that it could store spells, instantaneously cast spells, and… store energy in the equipment in advance. To a certain extent, it made up for Isloa’s lack of durability.
It wasn’t that she was not durable, it was just that she couldn’t compare to someone unreasonable like Duo Lai.
“This Red Fog Area not only blocks our vision but also confuses our senses and distorts space to some extent, just like in the Chaos Forest… it will not be easy for us to find the Root of Corruption.”
“Of course, it’s not a problem for me, I just need a little time.”
Taking advantage of the others’ cover while they were fighting the monsters, Isloa operated her Floating Magic Sphere. The sphere emitted a series of “beep-beep-beep” sounds, conducting an energy detection.
Normally, the Root of Corruption and the Nest of Filth are bound to gather a large amount of energy. Even if these energies are hidden at the root’s core, careful detection could reveal some unusual energy reactions.
This way, they could more directly and accurately find the Root of Corruption instead of running around in the Land of Filth depending on luck.
However, the interference from the Red Fog was too severe. She needed some time to detect the energy reaction.
“Is the Red Fog too thick?” Duo Lai asked.
Isloa nodded, “And, this Red Fog is not energy, but an indescribable substance that cannot be dispelled…”
Just like at this moment, Xi Liu spewed raging flames, and Lu Liu swept out a raging shock wave with a spear. These had no effect on the thick Red Fog around them.
The mist seemed to exist in a different dimension.
Yet it was directly affecting them.
Isloa had thought about researching the Red Fog, but the project died before it started. She couldn’t even find a method to collect the Red Fog, let alone study it.
While her thoughts were still spinning and her words were not yet fully spoken, she saw Duo Lai…
The mount beneath Duo Lai, Lai, suddenly opened its mouth and took a big gulp.
“Inhale—”
The surrounding flames, shock waves, air, everything was sucked into Slime’s stomach. Along with them, several visible red mist strands were sucked in as well.
The sky and the earth… at least, the Red Fog around them, had thinned out a lot.
Was there such a solution?
No, could the Red Fog even be sucked in?
