Chapter 227: The Mist Killing Game
Ten days later.
It's getting foggy.
A thin mist gradually formed in the valley piled with white jade.
Tiny water droplets and ice crystals floated in the valley, making the entire valley seem to be covered by a soft white veil. The white jade peaks in the distance were looming, and Byrne and others seemed to be in a dreamlike world.
A thin mist shrouded the mountain path, and the trees became blurred and quiet under the hazy light.
At sunrise or dusk, the sun shines through the mist, making the valley appear even more peaceful and mysterious.
Byrne stood calmly on a stone in the White Jade Valley, gazing at the increasingly dreamy environment around him, and said lightly: "As long as no one leaks the news, those cultists will not come here."
"Viscount Best, he should be very safe. What's left now depends on his efforts."
Byrne was very clear about one thing: the possibility of Viscount Best's breakthrough being successful was only 50%.
Theoretically, a 50% chance of success is already a very high chance. Many extraordinary people who try to break through do not have such a great chance, but the possibility of a 50% failure can also be terrifying.
Most of the losers die.
Will the old man succeed?
Byrne couldn't help but wonder, how long will we continue to stay here?
The monarch-level "Dragon Tamer" Aldrich Romen, and Zain Fussack, who had reached the transformation stage, were both able to convert their spiritual power and life force and could sustain their lives without food at all.
When you are hungry, you only need to consume your mental energy. If you consume too much mental energy, you can take a short nap when you are sleepy. You can maintain your vitality by constantly transforming each other.
However, Byrne and Renzo still have three months left, and they are still living beings that need to eat.
Viscount Best had been planning for a long time and had stockpiled a lot of food in the valley in advance, enough for the three of them to eat for more than half a year.
It's just that the food tastes terrible.
Only ten days had passed and March regretted coming here.
It wasn't because of anything else, it was simply because she was completely tired of eating those foods that were easy to store.
"It's really too disgusting... I can't stand it."
March was expressionless at first, not realizing the seriousness of the matter, but when she tried to use the power of nature to create fruit in the valley, she was suddenly shocked.
"It doesn't work? Why is that?"
She soon realized that there was no soil at all, so her natural powers could not create any plants.
All the white mountains, cliffs and the ground are made of white jade!
"No, according to that guy, they are not white jade, but white bones, but there is no breath of the dead on them."
March fell into deep thought, muttering to himself.
"Why there is no breath of the dead? It is totally incomprehensible. There are bones piled up like a valley."
She had lived for a long time and had a wealth of knowledge and experience, but the common sense in the field of mysticism was completely ineffective when faced with the things left behind by the powerful Apocalypse.
The existence of powerful monarchs can still be understood, but the relics of those who are hailed as demigods and legendary apocalypses are simply not something that a mere San Yue can understand.
Byrne reminded calmly:
"We have made a 'pledge' that no one can go out until the breakthrough is completed."
"Aldrich Romen, known by many as the 'Dragon Tamer', is the man in the Romen family who is most likely to inherit the Dukedom. He is actually willing to devote a lot of time and energy to protecting Viscount Best."
"I really don't know what price Viscount Best paid to allow the 'Dragon Tamer' to stay here."
Some time ago, when there was no fog, Aldridge sat quietly on a rock, and a long time had passed without him speaking.
He has an extraordinary calmness and never gets anxious about anything, as if he will never get angry, furious, or have any other negative emotions.
Byrne was very interested in the Roman family and had specifically investigated intelligence about them, especially the rumors and intelligence about the heir, Aldridge.
It is said that he is a man with an extremely meticulous mind and is very good at planning. When faced with unexpected situations, he may fail due to lack of preparation, but as long as he makes a plan, he almost never loses.
He couldn't help but say, "Mr. Aldridge is a very powerful person. It is said that even if someone much stronger than him were to make an appointment to fight him again, he would most likely fail."
Sanyue snorted and muttered, "Is that guy really that powerful? I don't believe it at all. What if the Black Iron Duke challenges him to a fight? Is there any chance that he can win?"
Suddenly they heard a voice coming from afar. It was the voice of "Dragon Tamer" Aldridge.
"In fact, the first truth to never lose a fight is to never provoke someone you can't afford to provoke."
Byrne and March looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that their conversation could still be heard by that person even though the distance was so far that they couldn't even see the person's figure in the fog.
Moreover, the "Dragon Tamer" Aldridge can also transmit his own voice.
Sanyue nodded slightly, her voice subconsciously lowered, and she said calmly: "Fortunately, such people are our allies, not our enemies."
The two looked at each other, and Byrne shook his head slowly and seriously.
"yes."
Byrne also nodded calmly.
He looked up at the sky silently and didn't speak for a long time.
Soon, a few more days passed.
At night, the moonlight shines on the valley, outlining a creepy silhouette, as if the valley hides unspeakable secrets, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.
Gradually, the night passed and the sun rose.
The sunlight shines through the mist, casting a dazzling light, as if the whole world is shrouded in a mysterious mist.
In the white valley, the distant mountains seemed to be shrouded in thick fog, and the surrounding trees appeared distorted and unpredictable in the hazy light, as if they were hiding some strange power.
A heavy silence occupied the area. It seemed that even the air had become thin and heavy. The irregular outlines of the white jade rocks and the winding paths gradually disappeared from sight.
In the thick fog, Byrne's hearing became more acute, and the faint sounds coming from afar seemed even deeper in the extremely low visibility environment.
Suddenly, Byrne discovered that March, who was nearby, had disappeared, and he didn't even notice it.
She seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
"Um?"
He suddenly remembered something. Viscount Best once said that this place would become dangerous after the fog. Could something really have happened?
"Where did she go..."
Just as Byrne was thinking about something, he suddenly heard the sound of people talking nearby.
"This is it, right? But it took us a long time to find it."
"Yes, this is indeed the place. If the information we received is correct, Viscount Best is in this valley."
"I hope that the time and energy we spent to come here will not be in vain. He will be watching us."
Outsider?
He suddenly became alert, but he did not move, and remained still in the thick fog.
After thinking for a moment, Byrne calmly released his substitute.
Then, a man who looked exactly like the original Byrne appeared out of nowhere in the thick fog around him.
It walked silently towards the vicinity, observing the surrounding movements on behalf of Byrne, and moved towards the place where the sound just came from.
Go ahead.
Byrne's expression remained unchanged as he silently cast the "full concealment" invisibility effect on his stand, making it impossible for him to be discovered in the fog.
As they got closer, Byrne's stand-in discovered three heretics in black robes!
He immediately discovered that those people were members of the Star Club!
The fog was thick and visibility was extremely low, so the three heretics were completely unaware of Byrne's presence.
Byrne's stand was made invisible through "full concealment", so even though he was very close, there was no possibility of being discovered by the other party.
The Path of Knowledge is not a ladder to godhood that is very good at fighting, but no one can deny its powerful and unpredictable functional extraordinary power.
Soon, Byrne heard shocking words coming from the mouths of the three heretics through his substitute.
"It took us a lot of effort to surround and kill that Siat noble just now! Many of us were even separated because of this. What should we do next?"
The Syat nobles who were surrounded and killed?
Who is it?
Who died?
Byrne was immediately surprised!
