Chapter 481: The Corrupted Death Valley

When he saw the thick fog, Leo frowned slightly and his expression became a little serious.
Others around them expressed surprise and confusion, because many of them had looked over the city wall a moment ago and found nothing unusual, but now in the blink of an eye, such a thick fog appeared at the breach in the city wall, making them suspicious.
Did this thick fog appear out of nowhere?
In fact, these people's guess was correct. These thick fogs did appear out of thin air, because Leo's mental network always enveloped the entire castle. Although the mental network was interfered with for various reasons, and the feedback information was incomplete, but
No matter how incomplete it is, it is impossible to detect such thick fog, not to mention that these are not fog at all, because the power of nightmares in Leo's body began to resonate with these fogs.
"Dream world?" Leo quickly thought of the small world in Hushang Town.
This thick fog was obviously much lighter than the thick fog in Lake Town, and there were no monsters like the Dream Spirit, so he did not feel any danger from it. On the contrary, he couldn't wait to enter the fog because of the resonance of the power of nightmares.
middle.
"Don't worry, these fogs are not dangerous." Leo's focused gaze on the thick fog was noticed by Willis, who thought Leo was worried about something, and he also felt the worries of others around him, so he explained
He said something, but this explanation had no effect. It only made his subordinates calm down a little on the surface.
Compared to the commotion on Leo's side, the people at the makeshift bonfire over there made even more noise. Almost everyone stood up and took out the mist.
The Special Bureau has been dealing with these strange phenomena all year round. In their opinion, the sudden appearance of any kind of thick fog is not a good thing. Even if the leader named Buckley repeatedly emphasized that this is a normal phenomenon, it could not reduce their nervousness.
The thick fog spread quickly, and in less than ten minutes it had already reached the interior of the castle, and the entire square was covered with a light layer of mist.
When everyone's attention was focused on the thick fog, Leo used the power of nightmare covertly and absorbed a thick fog, hoping to use the power of nightmare to analyze the structure of the thick fog.
And since the result made Leo feel that it was reasonable, it also made him discover some surprises. What makes sense is that this dense fog is indeed an energy substance similar to the dense fog in Hushang Town or Yam Island. The only one.
The difference is just different shades.
But what surprised him was that when he came into contact with the thick fog, the first thing that reacted was not the power of nightmare, but the eyeballs of the Abyss Serpent.
From the abyss serpent's eyeballs, a strong desire to swallow the thick fog is conveyed. If it were not suppressed by the marks of other gods, it might have started to swallow the fog at this moment.
Except for the eyeballs of the Abyss Serpent that reacted first, the second thing that reacted was not the power of nightmares, but the Chaos Stomach.
A surge of appetite came from the Chaos Stomach and was projected into Leo's brain, giving him a desire to eat the thick fog. However, this desire was not too strong, just like facing some food.
Dessert is the same, optional.
After discovering the reaction in the body caused by the thick fog, Leo also determined one thing, that is, these thick fogs contain the power of the abyss, or the breath of human pus.
"When you get to Death Valley, you should be more careful." Leo thought of the scene of the royal city in his mind, and turned to say to Su and others who were about to enter later.
"What?" Su and the others didn't understand what Leo meant for a moment.
Leo said directly: "I suspect that Death Valley has been eroded by the power of the abyss. If that is really the case, then there is danger somewhere."
"How do you know..." Just when Mira was about to ask Leo, she suddenly thought of the eyeball of the abyss snake that Leo had just used, and stopped asking any more.
Willis did not worry about the people in Death Valley because of Leo's speculation, because in his mind, there was no one or anything in Death Valley worth worrying about. After hearing the speculation about the accident in Death Valley, he
On the contrary, I feel more happy.
However, he did not reveal what he was thinking, but pretended to be serious, turned to ask everyone: "Then do we want to continue going there now?"
"Of course I want to go." Mira and Su said almost in unison, without even thinking about it.
Willis didn't say anything more, and ordered his men to stay close to the campfire and not to enter the thick fog. Then he took out the knife and made a small cut in the palm of his hand.
At this time, the surrounding thick fog had grown to the same level as outside the city wall, and it was almost impossible to see anything as long as you were far away from the bonfire.
Willis raised his bloody hand with a wound and drew a pattern on the ground, and then saw the thick fog in front of him automatically rolling up to make way.
"Follow me." Willis simply said and walked forward along the foggy road.
Seeing this, everyone else followed suit, but Leo paused for a moment and turned to look at where the people from the Special Bureau were on the other side, because he felt a stream of Kazuto's pus over there just now.
A very similar force appears and then disappears immediately.
After finding no other abnormalities, Leo didn't stop any longer and moved forward quickly to catch up with the people in front of him.
"What happened?" Su asked in a low voice when she noticed that Leo had not followed.
"We're fine, but the people in the Special Bureau may have something wrong." Leo responded simply.
Su was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance towards the location of the Special Bureau, but the thick fog blocked her from seeing anything. However, this news was a good thing for her. She came to Yingge
If the news from the Kingdom is sent back to the headquarters of the Special Bureau, it may take a lot of effort to leave smoothly, and it may even involve some ears and eyes that the Kingdom of America has set up over the years.
The group of people walked forward along this road made of thick fog for a while. One of the three extraordinary people soon noticed something was wrong, because based on the distance traveled before and the direction of the road, they should now be
It's only right that we have already touched the city wall or some abandoned houses, but looking forward now, we still see a straight road with no obstructions, which is obviously contrary to common sense.
"Shouldn't we be touching the city wall?" One of them suddenly asked with doubts.
However, no one around him answered him, because the road ahead that was smooth a moment ago was blocked again by thick fog that appeared out of thin air in the blink of an eye. Moreover, the thick fog that appeared in front was thicker than the surrounding fog. It felt like
It's like a pile of cotton blocking the front.
At this time, Willis's blood-filled hand was seen going deep into the thick fog, and then the thick fog instantly dissipated from everyone's eyes, and at the same time, the surrounding fog also dissipated.
At this time, everyone discovered that they were no longer in the square of Old Josh Fort, but in the ruins in the middle of a small valley. Behind them, the outside of the ruins was shrouded in a large amount of thick fog. As for what can be seen in front of the ruins
You will reach a gravel road that winds between two hills and leads out of this small valley.
"This is the architectural style of the Jekara tribe." When seeing the surrounding ruins, Mira suddenly became a little excited. She walked to a ruined arch with obvious decorative features, pointed to a pattern on it, and said, "This
It is the representation of the Emerald Guard. This should be the camp of the Emerald Dream Guardians. The Jekara Tribe has always been the guardian of the Emerald Dream. After the Emerald Dream, the Jekara Tribe was wiped out due to the invasion of the Abyss, and their buildings were also destroyed.
Destroyed."
"Is the Jekara tribe the tribe that is said to be the closest to prehistoric fame?" Su had a special status in the Kingdom of America and had access to some confidential documents, so he quickly knew what Mira was talking about.
"Yes, that's them." Mira nodded, and added: "The statement closest to prehistoric civilization is the latest statement, but as far as I know, the Jekara tribe is the oldest tribe in the wilderness, and it is also the oldest tribe of all tribes.
The source, they are said to be the descendants of the Lord of Nature. Every member of the Jekara tribe can enter the Emerald Dream without undergoing any shamanic training. Unfortunately, it is precisely because they are too deeply involved with the Emerald Dream that they are eventually affected.
Was involved in the Emerald Dream."
"Jekara?" Leo also walked to a relatively complete mural, looked at it, then pointed to a pattern on the mural that looked like a tree and a human, and said, "What is this?"
Mira took a look and replied: "That is the son of nature, the true master of the Emerald Dream, and the true descendant of the Lord of Nature."
Leo didn't ask any more questions. He was now certain that the Emerald Dream, the Lord of Nature, the Son of Nature, etc. were all deeply connected with the nature spirit of the higher cosmic civilization in his memory, because the Son of Nature in front of him
They are clearly the treants of the spirit of nature. These treants are combat weapons specially created by the spirit of nature. They are extremely powerful. Each one is equivalent to a third-level psyker.
"Do you think this place is weird? It's very uncomfortable?" At this time, an extraordinary person suddenly said.
"It's indeed very uncomfortable." Mira and Su frowned and nodded in agreement.
Leo did not show any discomfort to this, but he knew very well why the transcendent said that people would feel uncomfortable here, because the air here was filled with a deathly atmosphere full of despair, and this
This kind of death energy can only be felt by Leo in the place where everything ends, which also indicates that the world of Death Valley is entering death.
And Leo can also feel more power auras from the surrounding air, such as the aura of the abyss, the aura of human pus, etc. In short, these findings show without exception that Death Valley has become a peaceful place.
The royal city is almost in despair.
"Was Death Valley like this before?" Mira turned to Willis and asked in a deep voice.
Willis shook his head and said, "No, this place used to be full of trees." As he spoke, he pointed to the hills on both sides and said, "Now all the trees are gone. Something is wrong!"
After Willis's reminder, Mira and others felt something was wrong on the hills on both sides, because not only were there no trees on the hills on both sides, there were no signs of tree growth, there was only a thick layer of black grass.
With doubts in his heart, an extraordinary person walked towards the nearest piece of black grass and said as he walked: "Did you remember wrongly? It doesn't look like trees have grown here?"
"If I were you, I wouldn't be so reckless as to approach an open space where the details are unknown." At this time, Leo, who was always looking at the relief in front of him, suddenly reminded him.
The man froze and stopped two or three feet away from the grass. Although he didn't know what Leo had discovered, he also felt that what Leo said was reasonable, so he stepped back a few steps.
Taking a step forward, he casually saw a stone on the ground and threw it towards the black grass.
I saw that the stone had just fallen into the grass. The black grass wrapped the stone like an octopus catching its prey. Not long after, when the black grass was loosened, the stone had been corroded into thousands of pieces.
It has hundreds of holes and will break if touched even slightly.
"What's going on?" The transcendent's face became extremely ugly. If Leo hadn't reminded him just now, he might have fallen into it. Even if he escaped, his legs would probably be broken.
"I also want to know what's going on? When I left, there were no such things." Willis's face became a little ugly and he said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Leo, didn't you say before that this place has been eroded by the abyss? Could these black grasses be mutant plants that were eroded by the abyss?" Mira read the records left by the shaman and knew that the Emerald Dream first appeared.
In the abnormal scene, the plants in question were the first to mutate, and all the plants became extremely aggressive, so she immediately connected this scene with the scene recorded in the book.
Leo didn't answer this, because there was no need to answer.
"Are we still going?" Seeing the scene in front of them, the three extraordinary beings hired by Su began to think about quitting.
"It will take at least half a day to open the channel again." Willis also showed a rare look of worry on his face, and looked at the palm of his hand where the wound had healed.
"Then we will be here..." the three extraordinary beings suggested.
"No." Before they could finish speaking, Su and Mira interrupted each other in unison, and then after looking at each other, Su said: "If there is really a danger, then staying here will not reduce the danger.
At some point, it would be better to go to Death Valley to see what happened, see if anyone is still alive, and then consider the next step after understanding the situation here."
"I think so too." The two women, who were originally somewhat hostile, were very consistent in their attitudes at this moment.
Seeing what their employer said, the three extraordinary men had no way to refute, and what Su said made sense, so they all nodded and agreed to the proposal.
As for Leo, he didn't even think about staying. He had already walked out of the ruins and stood in front of the gravel intersection, waiting for them to pass.
Chapter completed!
