Ah, there are no words on this stone tablet, only a lonely six characters.
Mai Fan didn't quite understand what this number represented, so he raised his head and looked at the Ghost King who was leading the team.
"We took the junction of the fourth area and ours as the starting point, and put down a stone tablet every 1,000 kilometers. And at the first 1,000 kilometers, the number of stone tablets we put down was one."
"Now we have reached the value of six, which means that there are at least 54321 stone monuments with a distance of nearly 5,000 kilometers ahead."
"When we erected this stone monument, only the area between zero and one was eroded by the strange abyssal air in the fourth area."
"And the area from two to six belongs completely to our ghost city, and is an area with flourishing ghost energy."
"But look at it now, the ghost energy still exists, but it is so thin that there are only a few grasses of the underworld that grow the most ordinary around."
"The opponent is advancing too fast and eroding our side too far. It is hard for me to imagine what the scene will be like in front of the stone monument if we continue to search forward."
Under the reminder of the Ghost King, Mai Fan slowly walked around in a circle and looked at the surrounding scene. The surrounding area was indeed almost barren of grass, and the only place with lush growth was around the stone monument where they had erected.
Because these stone tablets are made of special ghost bricks made from ghost lands, there will be ghost energy escaping around them, which can provide an environment for the Yin grass to survive.
Otherwise, without this stone monument, the surrounding scene would be difficult to imagine.
"No wonder your city lord asked to send a team to investigate again."
"Isn't he sitting in the city as a guard? How did he know that the spread here has accelerated."
The green-faced and fanged Ghost King was very respectful to his city lord.
"Did you know that the appearance of our ghost city was accompanied by the city lord covering this area?"
"Our city lord is not just a person or a city. As long as it is within the area covered by our ghost city, it is his own existence."
"He can feel every plant, tree, movement, and silence in this area."
"He said that he had noticed the unusual movements here a long time ago and hoped to form a team to conduct reconnaissance there."
"If there weren't some annoying people in the city, the city lord would be distracted."
At this point, the Ghost King didn't want to say more. Mai Fan knew that he must be talking about the companions among the 99 who were not very worry-free.
So he acted as if he hadn't heard anything and waited for the Ghost King to continue speaking.
The ghost king pointed to the junction that was still thousands of kilometers away and changed the subject: "If you hadn't appeared, our exploration might have been delayed further."
"After all, ghost energy is quite sensitive to the people over there."
"I don't know if the people over there are quite tolerant of living creatures, or if they are just aware of us."
"Many people who have to go to other areas to do business, as long as they avoid it carefully when passing through that area, they do not encounter much harassment or difficulty."
"The city lord just wants to find such a trustworthy person who can work together to investigate the fourth area."
"What if the two sisters hadn't recommended you to the city lord? I'm afraid this matter won't happen to you people."
What should Mai Fan say when he hears this?
He really thanked these two sisters for finding trouble for her.
Now that the matter is over, everyone can move on. However, when they find themselves reaching the stone monument marked with five, the journey along the way is not so smooth.
That's because once you get to area five, the closer you get to the area over there, the more weird and dangerous it becomes.
Some creatures that are not living creatures, or even creatures that do not belong to this thing, were born here.
They are like some mud without body and soul. If you pinch it at will in this space, an individual will be born that will never be the same again.
The ability of this individual depends entirely on the number of companions it devours and the extent to which it uses itself.
And these mud-like things have no intelligence, that is to say, they have no thoughts.
They just follow their instinct to devour everything that moves around them, whether living or dead.
This is also the reason why there is basically no grass around the space where creatures like them live. The most disgusting and terrifying thing about this kind of creatures is that when there is nothing frozen to eat, they start to actively eat.
Something that moves.
For example, sand, various bone fossils buried under the sand, or even garbage.
After devouring everything they could eat, what they excreted was the lonely black dust with an ominous aura.
The pungent thing that neither survives nor dies covers the entire area, causing those motionless creatures to directly face death.
Now they have encountered this kind of creature on this section of the road. Although the number is not particularly large, and they are all in the corners, they do not dare to attack such a large force, but they always jump and jump, very
It's annoying, and a lot of time is wasted just cleaning them up on the road.
"See? Gentlemen, that's what makes this kind of thing difficult."
"If we don't find a way to plug that crack, things like this will basically keep popping up from there."
"And they, no matter how weak they are, all have the same characteristics."
"That's why it's so hard to kill."
"Whether it's a water attack, a fire attack, or a physical attack, it needs to be repeated many times to crush them into this form of matter."
Mai Fan looked at the pile of powder on the ground and fell into deep thought.
This kind of thing is indeed difficult to kill. To effectively harm it, it must be to extract some water-like substance from this mucus, and then this substance will face real death.
If you want to get rid of this mucus, you must also see what kind of damage this mucus has caused.
Along the way, I probably killed seven or eight of these troublesome little monsters. Three of them required high-temperature flames, two of them required water, and the remaining ones basically required physical attacks.
This means that their killing operations require repeated attempts to attack.
What they encountered now was still such a weak little thing.
