[Ding! Host, please wait a moment. The system is working hard to analyze this world.]
Having received a response from the system, Zhang Mu waited patiently.
[Ding! Analysis successful!]
This world is divided into two layers: the outer world and the inner world.
Two floors?
Zhang Mu was taken aback.
[The host can simply understand it as a secondary realm of the main world.]
After Ye Yu's explanation, Zhang Mu finally understood.
"In other words, I'm still in the surface world. To figure out the true nature of the Gray Fog World, I must enter the inner world..."
That's right.
Zhang Mu was somewhat surprised; who would have thought this?
No wonder I've been here for a month and still haven't made any progress.
"Could the other realm lords also be trapped in the surface world...?"
Zhang Mu clicked his tongue in amazement. The main world had gone to such great lengths to send the realm lords in, yet they hadn't even officially entered each other's homes yet.
"System, how do I enter the inner world?"
Does the host still remember the day of the mutation?
"Blood Moon Day?"
That's right. When the Blood Moon arrives, the two worlds will briefly overlap and merge. At that time, you can find a weak point in the space and break through it to enter.
"I see."
Zhang Mu nodded; it seemed he would have to wait almost another month.
In the time that followed, he began to wait for the Blood Moon Day to arrive, but of course he did not give up exploring the surface world.
As for why we still need to explore...
First, they wanted to find those realm lords. Second, since the Gray Mist World has two layers, an inner and an outer one, there must be a reason for its existence.
If the inner world is the true face of the gray fog world, then what about the outer world?
In any case, Zhang Mu did not believe that the surface world was only used to confuse other invaders; it must have other important functions.
Soon, the monthly Blood Moon Day arrived.
Zhang Mu looked at the bright moon in the sky.
The next instant, the blood moon suddenly appeared, and clouds of gray mist began to rise from the ground.
Zhang Mu closed his eyes tightly and began to scan the space with his divine sense, trying to find its weak point.
"Found it!"
His eyes snapped open, and with a wave of his hand, he put the castle away and placed it into the system space.
Then, in a flash, he appeared directly beneath the blood moon, gathering all his power in his right fist and unleashing a powerful punch.
"Bang!"
In an instant, the space cracked, and Zhang Mu quickly bent down and crawled into the spatial passage.
As the space shifted, by the time Zhang Mu came to his senses, he had arrived in another world.
"Is this the other world...?"
Zhang Mu stared blankly for a moment.
The scene before my eyes was completely different from the world on the surface.
The surface world is shrouded in gray fog, and even when the fog dissipates, the earth is covered in deep purple things.
The scenery here is no different from that in the rest of the world.
The only thing that concerned him was the blood moon hanging in the sky.
The inner world only has a blood moon; there is no white moon. If I had noticed this sooner, I wouldn't have been deceived by the outer world.
Fortunately, we have the system as our support.
Zhang Mu chose a direction and set off.
He soon spotted a house where people were staying and hurried toward it.
As Zhang Mu got closer, he realized that the inhabitants were not humans, but a group of beastmen.
"Humans?"
Upon seeing Zhang Mu, the surrounding orcs swarmed around him.
Zhang Mu was not intimidated; his strong abilities were a guarantee of safety.
"May I ask where this place is?"
Zhang Mu wanted to find out some information.
"Oh? Looks like you're new here."
The orcs grinned, their expressions somewhat ferocious.
"Human, as an exchange of information, tell me about the situation in your world first."
The orc gestured.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, analyzed the situation, and then said as they wished, "My world was completely swallowed up by the gray mist world, and then I inexplicably came here."
"Has another world fallen?"
The orc sighed.
Why do you say that?
Zhang Mu countered with a question.
"As you can see, you are new here and do not yet know the situation. The Gray Mist World has invaded many worlds, and the invaded worlds will naturally not sit idly by and wait for their doom, so they have sent strong people from various worlds to launch a counterattack."
However, as the Gray Fog world grows stronger, the counterattacks from other worlds become less and less effective.
This continent is home to countless races, who appear to be resisting the gray fog world, but are merely clinging to life.
The orc explained.
"So you arrived here as soon as you entered the Gray Fog World?"
"Isn't that obvious? If not here, then where? The only thing that puzzles us is that it's supposed to be a gray fog world, but we can't see a single gray fog. It's ridiculous. Or is it that the gray fog world has never taken us seriously?"
The orc smiled wryly.
After resisting for so long, it turns out they didn't even really do anything.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mu seemed to ponder, becoming increasingly convinced of his previous guesses.
It's quite intriguing that these guys have never been to the surface world.
"Is your world still connected to you?"
"No, they will only regularly send strong people over to provide support."
The orc shook his head.
"Since you say this continent is home to countless races, then the human race exists as well?"
"It does exist. If you want to go there, you can see it after flying billions of miles in this direction."
But looking at your skinny arms and short legs, do you think you can last that long? The Gray Fog world is vast, and there are powerful monsters lurking in the wild.
The orc reminded them that after all, they were all on the same side, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
"Thanks for the reminder, but having survived to this world, do you think I wouldn't have the ability to protect myself?"
"Yes, then good luck."
The orc nodded.
After obtaining the information, Zhang Mu left in the direction the orc pointed.
He did want to meet humans from other worlds, see how powerful they were, and gather information from them.
Zhang Mu had previously sensed that the orcs were hiding a lot of information from him, but that was normal. Everyone understands the principle that those who are not of our kind are bound to have different intentions.
After a long journey, Zhang Mu finally arrived at the human settlement.
They did not see the monsters the orcs had mentioned along the way, and the other world seemed to have no day or night; the blood moon hung high in the sky the whole time.
Under the moonlight, the earth was a deep crimson.
"The settlement is quite large, it seems to encompass humans from many different worlds."
Zhang Mu stopped three miles outside the city and slowly walked towards the city gate.
The guards stopped Zhang Mu when they saw his new face.
"Hey bro, stop for a second. You look unfamiliar. Are you new to the Gray Fog World?"
The city guards questioned him.
"That's right, it's because..."
Zhang Mu gave the same explanation.
"I see. Don't be sad, brother. Although the Gray Fog World is powerful, I believe that as long as many worlds unite, we will eventually destroy it completely!"
The man comforted Zhang Mu.
Are you sure it was you who destroyed the Gray Fog World... and not the Gray Fog World that destroyed you?
Zhang Mu didn't want to say anything discouraging: "Can I go in now? I finally found a human settlement, and I came all the way from the orcs."
This has two meanings: first, I have the strength and will not be a burden; I can be of help in critical moments. Second, we are both human and should stick together; I have no ulterior motives towards humanity.
