The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 481 The Corroded Valley of Death

When he saw the dense fog, Leo frowned slightly, and his expression became a little serious.

Others around showed surprise and doubts, because many of them had looked over the city wall a moment ago and found nothing abnormal, but now, in a blink of an eye, such a thick fog appeared at the breach of the city wall, making them suspicious. Did these dense fogs come out of nowhere?

In fact, these people guessed right, the thick fog did come out of nowhere, because Leo's mental network has always enveloped the entire castle, although due to various reasons the spiritual network has been disturbed and the feedback information is incomplete, but No matter how incomplete it is, it is impossible to detect such a thick fog, not to mention that these are not fogs at all, because the nightmare power on Leo's body has begun to resonate with these fogs.

"Dream world?" Leo quickly thought of the small world in Lake Town.

This thick fog is obviously much lighter than the thick fog in Hushang Town, and there are no monsters like the dream spirit, so he didn't feel any danger from it, but because of the resonance of the power of nightmare, he couldn't wait to enter the fog middle.

"You don't have to worry, these fogs are not dangerous." Willis saw Leo staring at the dense fog intently, thinking that Leo was worried about something, and he also felt the worries of other people around him, so he explained It's just that this explanation didn't have any effect, it just calmed down his subordinates a little on the surface.

Compared to the commotion on Leo's side, the commotion from the people making the temporary bonfire over there was even greater. Almost everyone stood up and took out the mist.

The Special Bureau has dealt with these strange phenomena all the year round. In their view, any sudden appearance of dense fog is not a good thing. Even if the leader named Buckley repeatedly emphasized that this is a normal phenomenon, it still cannot ease their tension.

The dense fog spread quickly, and within ten minutes it had expanded to the inside of the castle, and the entire square was covered with a thin layer of mist.

When everyone's attention was on the dense fog, Leo applied the power of nightmare covertly, absorbed a thick fog, and wanted to analyze the structure of the dense fog through the power of nightmare.

As a result, since Leo felt that it was reasonable, he also found some surprises. It is reasonable that this kind of dense fog is indeed a kind of energy substance similar to the thick fog of Hushang Town or Yam Island. The difference is only in shades.

But what surprised him was that when he came into contact with the dense fog, the first thing that reacted was not the power of nightmare, but the eyeballs of the abyss serpent.

A strong desire to devour the dense fog was conveyed from the eyeballs of the abyss serpent. If it hadn't been suppressed by the imprints of other gods, it might have started to swallow the fog at this moment.

In addition to the first response from the eyeballs of the abyss serpent, the second response was not the power of nightmare, but the stomach of chaos.

An appetite came from the chaotic stomach and projected into Leo's brain, giving him a desire to eat the thick fog, but this desire was not too strong, just like facing some food After dessert like, dispensable.

After discovering the reaction in the body caused by the dense fog, Leo also confirmed one thing, that is, the power of the abyss is contained in the dense fog, or the breath of human pus.

"When you get to Death Valley, you have to be careful." Leo thought of the scene of the royal city in his mind, and then turned his head and said to Su and the others who were about to enter later.

"What?" Su and the others didn't understand what Leo meant for a while.

Leo said straightforwardly: "I suspect that Death Valley has been eroded by the power of the abyss. If that is the case, then there is danger somewhere."

"How did you know..." Mira was about to ask Leo, when he suddenly thought of the eyeball of the abyss snake that Leo had just used, and stopped asking.

Willis didn't worry about the people in Death Valley because of Leo's speculation, because in his mind, there was no one or anything worth worrying about in Death Valley. After hearing the speculation about what happened in Death Valley, he On the contrary, I feel happier.

However, he did not reveal what was in his heart, but pretended to be serious, turned his head and asked everyone: "Then should we continue to go there now?"

"Of course." Mira and Su said in unison, without even thinking about it.

Willis didn't say anything more, and told his subordinates to stay by the campfire and not to enter the dense fog. Then he took out a knife and made a small cut in the palm of his hand.

At this time, the surrounding dense fog has grown to the same size as outside the city wall, and as long as you leave the bonfire for a certain distance, you can hardly see anything coming.

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 roll up automatically, making way for it.

"Follow up." Willis said simply, and walked forward along the dense fog road.

Seeing this, the others followed suit one after another. Only Leo paused for a moment, turned his head and looked at the place where the people from the special bureau were, because he felt that there was a wave of human pus over there just now. A very similar power appeared and disappeared immediately.

After finding no other abnormalities, Leo didn't stay any longer, and walked forward quickly, catching up with the person in front.

"What happened?" Su asked in a low voice after realizing that Leo hadn't followed.

"We're fine, but there might be something wrong with the people in the Special Bureau." Leo simply responded.

Su froze for a moment, and couldn't help but glanced at the special bureau, but the dense fog blocked her, making her unable to see anything. However, this news is a good thing for her. If the news of her coming to the Kingdom of England is sent back to the headquarters of the Special Bureau, it may take a lot of effort to leave smoothly, and it may even take some American friends The eyes and ears arranged by the Kingdom for many years.

A group of people walked along this road made of thick fog for a while, and some of the three extraordinary people soon noticed that something was wrong, because based on the estimation of the distance traveled before and the direction of this road, they should now It should have touched the city wall or some abandoned houses, but looking forward now, it is still a straight road without obstacles, which is obviously contrary to common sense.

"Shouldn't we touch the city wall?" With doubts, one of them suddenly asked.

However, no one around answered him, because the road ahead that was unimpeded a moment ago was blocked by thick fog that appeared out of thin air in the blink of an eye, and the thick fog that appeared in front was thicker than the surrounding thick fog. It's like a pile of cotton is in the way.

At this time, Willis said that his hand full of blood penetrated into the thick fog, and then the thick fog dissipated from everyone's eyes in an instant, and at the same time, the surrounding fog also dissipated.

At this time, everyone found that they were no longer in the square of Old Johnsburg, but in the ruins in the middle of a small valley. Behind them, the ruins were shrouded in a lot of thick fog. As for the front of the ruins, you can see To a gravel road, winding from the middle of two hills, leading to the outside of this small valley.

"This is the architectural style of the Jakala tribe." When Mira saw the surrounding ruins, she suddenly became a little excited. She walked to a ruin arch with obvious decorative features, pointed to a pattern on it, and said, "This It is the emerald guards, and this should be the camp of the guardians of the Emerald Dream. The Jakara tribe has always been the guardian of the Emerald Dream. Ruined."

"The Jekara tribe, is that the tribe that is said to be the closest to prehistoric history?" Su had a special status in the Megalica Kingdom, and after having access to some confidential documents, he soon knew what Mira was talking about.

"Yes, that's them." Mira nodded, and added: "The statement closest to prehistoric civilization is the most recent statement, but as far as I know, the Jekara tribe is the oldest tribe in the wasteland, and it is also the oldest tribe of all tribes. Source, they are said to be the descendants of the Lord of Nature. Every member of the Jakara tribe can enter the Emerald Dream without any shaman training. Involved in the Emerald Dream."

"Jacala?" Leo also walked to a relatively complete mural, looked at it, and then pointed to a pattern that looked like a tree and a person on the mural, and said, "What is this?"

Mira glanced at it and replied, "That's 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 can now be sure that the Emerald Dream, the Lord of Nature, and the Son of Nature are all deeply connected with the high-level 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, and each one is equivalent to a third-level psychic.

"Do you think this place is weird? It's uncomfortable?" At this time, a transcendent man suddenly said.

"It's really uncomfortable." Mira and Su frowned, and nodded in unison.

On the contrary, Leo didn't show any uncomfortable reaction to this, but he was very clear why the extraordinary man said that this place would make people feel uncomfortable, because the air here was filled with a dead air full of despair, and this This kind of death energy Leo can only feel 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 breath from the surrounding air, such as the breath of the abyss, such as the breath of human pus, etc. All in all, these discoveries without exception show that Death Valley has become a place of peace and harmony. Wangcheng is almost a place of despair.

"Is Death Valley like this before?" Mira turned to Willis and asked in a deep voice.

Willis shook his head and said, "No, it used to be full of trees," he pointed to the hills on both sides, and said, "Now there are no trees, something is wrong!"

Under Willis' reminder, Mira and the others felt something was wrong with 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, only a thick layer of black grass.

With doubts in his heart, a transcendent walked towards the nearest piece of black grass, and said as he walked, "Did you remember wrongly, it doesn't look like there are trees growing here?"

"If I were you, I wouldn't be so reckless approaching an open space where I don't know the details." At this time, Leo, who was always looking at the relief in front of him, suddenly reminded him.

The man was stunned 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 made sense, so he stepped back a few more Stepping forward, he saw a stone from the ground and threw it towards the black grass.

I saw that the stone had just fallen into the grass, and the black grass wrapped the stone like an octopus catching its prey. Not long after, when the black grass loosened, the stone was corroded and riddled with scars. Hundred holes, just a little touch will break.

"What's going on here?" The Transcendent's face became extremely ugly. If Leo hadn't reminded him just now, he might have fallen into it, and even if he escaped, his feet would probably be crippled.

"I also want to know what's going on? When I left, I didn't have these things." Willis's face became a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Leo, didn't you say that this place has been eroded by the abyss before? Could these black grasses be mutated plants after being 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 plant in question was also the first to mutate, and all the plants became extremely aggressive, so she immediately connected this scene with the scene recorded in the book.

In this regard, Leo did not answer, because there is no need to answer.

"Shall we go?" Seeing the scene in front of them, the three superhumans hired by Su began to withdraw.

"It will take at least half a day to open the channel again." Willis said with a rare look of worry on his face, and looked at the palm of the wound that had healed.

"Then we'll be here..." the three transcendents suggested.

"No." Before they could finish speaking, Su and Mira interrupted each other in unison, and after looking at each other, Su said: "If there is really danger, then staying here will not reduce the danger." For a few minutes, it’s better to go to Death Valley to see what happened and see if there are any survivors, and after learning about the situation here, we can consider the next step.”

"I think so too." The two women, who were originally hostile, were very consistent in their attitudes at this moment.

Seeing what the employer said, the three extraordinary people had no way to refute, and what Su said made sense, so they all nodded in agreement with the proposal.

As for Leo, he didn't think about staying at all, he had already walked out of the ruins, and stood in front of the gravel intersection, waiting for them to pass.

"Let's go, it's still a while before we get to the town." Seeing this, Willis didn't say much, and led the way out of the ruins, and the others left afterward.
