Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Mu said that, the man beamed with joy: "So you came from the orcs, brother. That's billions of miles away, and there are powerful monsters along the way. Without great strength, it wouldn't be safe to come here."
"There's no other way; I don't want to live with a bunch of orcs."
Zhang Mu said this, acknowledging that his strength was not bad.
"That's right, then welcome to our great camp, brother."
The man said with satisfaction.
"Well, after all, we are all human. Although we come from different places, we all have human blood. Now we have a common enemy, so we should help each other."
Could you tell me about the current global situation? I'm new here and don't know much about it yet. Having a clear understanding will help me with my future actions.
Zhang Mu said.
"Alright, I'll tell you about it. Take human settlements for example."
This place was built by humans from hundreds of worlds, but there are only ten big shots who manage the entire city.
These ten powerful figures are among the strongest in the world, and they have formed an alliance to determine all of humanity's actions.
Under their leadership, our human race has become a major power on this continent.
"A major power?"
"Well, brother, you also found out from the orcs that this world has invaded more than one world, right?"
Numerous races coexist, sharing a common enemy, yet they are also competitors. While maintaining basic resource operations, they are friends; but in the struggle for resources, they become enemies.
"Resources..."
The man slowly explained: "That's right. After entering this world, everyone has completely lost contact with their own world, and the energy contained in this world is not suitable for our cultivation."
You should know what this means. Fortunately, everyone can hunt those monsters to obtain crystals.
The crystals inside the monster can effectively replenish our energy needs, and most importantly, this energy is suitable for everyone to absorb and convert.
Zhang Mu frowned: "Is this world only inhabited by monsters? How do you fight against the Gray Mist World?"
"Sigh... We don't know how to fight against the Gray Fog World. Rather than saying we are fighting against the Gray Fog World, it's more accurate to say we are trapped in this world."
Over the years, people have been exploring this world, but they still can't find the source of the gray fog.
Zhang Mu's heart grew heavy. It seemed that none of them had ever entered the Surface World, let alone knew of its existence.
He looked up at the blood moon in the sky, his divine sense constantly probing into the blood moon to sense if there were any weak points in the space.
Unfortunately, it didn't happen; perhaps the blood moon period had passed.
As for why these people didn't enter the surface world, Zhang Mu suspected it was because their world's Heavenly Dao was inadequate.
"It's getting more and more interesting, like a mirage."
Zhang Mu's lips curled up slightly.
"Brother, you'd better not stare at the blood moon for too long. It can make you feel dizzy."
That person reminded him.
"Mental confusion?"
Zhang Mu was taken aback; why didn't he have this feeling?
"Yes, this thing can bewitch the mind. When we first arrived, we didn't know anything, and some people were completely lost after watching the Blood Moon for a long time, turning into walking corpses."
This blood moon has been hanging high in the sky, obscuring the distinction between day and night. We even suspected that the source of the gray fog might be the blood moon.
However, when everyone mobilized the power of all races to explore, they were blocked by a barrier.
Even if all races were to unite their power, they would be unable to break through this barrier. Everyone says it is a world barrier, and unless the power of the Heavenly Dao intervenes, there is no way to breach it.
After that, people forgot about it and could only wait anxiously for the intervention of the Heavenly Dao in their world.
Zhang Mu understood completely upon hearing this.
The surface world is the origin of the gray fog world, while the inner world is merely a deception within it, but it certainly holds secrets.
However, if the power of the Heavenly Dao in your world is not strong, you cannot enter the surface world of the Gray Mist World at all, and can only come to the inner world set up by the Gray Mist World.
Before entering the surface world, who would have thought that this world has two layers?
Even if you are lucky enough to enter the surface world, you cannot guess that there is an inner world.
They can only struggle in the gray fog of the surface world.
The surface world is shrouded in a gray fog.
The Blood Moon Mystery exists in the Otherworld.
Both must be hiding a great secret. Only by breaking through both key points at the same time can the truth of the gray fog world be fully revealed!
"Thank you for letting me know, brother. Can I enter the city now?"
Zhang Mu nodded.
"Of course you can. Now that you've joined us, you can come and go as you please."
When you go inside, you'll see a registration office. After registering your information, you can get a house to live in.
Considering that more and more people will be joining our ranks, and our city is slowly expanding, we have an ample supply of housing.
The man smiled.
Afterwards, Zhang Mu said goodbye to the man, registered his information as instructed, and was given a house to live in.
To be on the safe side, Zhang Mu set up a powerful barrier around his house. After all, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one should not be without the intention to guard against others.
It's always better to be cautious.
Then Zhang Mu took out the castle model and examined it.
"Now that we don't have to worry about the gray fog's erosion in the inner world, we don't need this thing anymore, right?"
Zhang Mu seemed to be deep in thought, and his eyes lit up when he sensed the power of the Heavenly Dao on it.
"The solution to this impasse lies here! I'm so grateful that Heaven has left me a backup plan!"
Didn't that person say that the barrier could only be broken by the power of Heaven? He just happens to have it!
However, the power of Heaven in the current model is somewhat weak.
"However, compared to before, the power of the Heavenly Dao seems to be much stronger. It seems this model can indeed absorb energy from the Gray Fog World to continuously grow. But will this function also be useful in the Inner World?"
Zhang Mu pondered, this is the key. If this thing can't grow in the inner world, then he'll have to put it in the outer world.
So, in the days that followed, Zhang Mu remained invisible in the city, testing whether the castle could grow in the inner world.
Several weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and the results of the experiment disappointed Zhang Mu.
Castles cannot grow in the Otherworld.
This is normal, since the Heavenly Dao is designed based on the energy contained in the gray fog. The inner world has no gray fog, so it naturally cannot absorb energy to grow.
"Damn it, we're stuck in a dead end again."
Zhang Mu was speechless.
I'm all alone, and I can't take care of both sides at the same time.
If we could find the world lords of the outer world, we could work together from the inside out, with one side conquering the inner world and the other side conquering the outer world.
"Let's take it one step at a time. We'll use this time to figure out the inner world first, and then consider whether or not to go back to the outer world."
Zhang Mu muttered to himself, "There are still a few weeks until the Blood Moon Day."
