Chapter 258 Plan
There were no fatal accidents in the next few days.
But everyone clearly felt that the search mission was becoming increasingly difficult.
This area is no longer as smooth and stable as before.
Many distorted areas invisible to the naked eye appeared in space.
Some distorted locations have extremely chaotic spaces and must not be touched.
Previously, an unlucky swarm of reconnaissance mosquitoes came just a little close. The moment they came into contact, the entire swarm was teleported and torn into pieces by the violent force of space.
If any creature slightly larger dares to approach, its entire body will probably be torn into pieces.
Some areas are like a fork in the road leading to the unknown.
Only after entering can you know what is inside.
It could be a "paradise" rich in resources, or it could be a "dead end" leading to death.
According to Levin Mills, this area should be where the "space distortion" has "just" occurred.
The internal spatial rules have not yet been completely stabilized, so such chaotic problems arise.
But in this way, Benjamin and his companions were like stepping into a maze made up of space itself, full of deadly traps.
Those who explore never know what they will encounter next.
This not only makes the search more difficult, but also takes more and more time.
However, none of the wizards present had any complaints.
After all, the more unstable and chaotic the area is, the more strange creatures and special resources there are.
Although the search was extremely time-consuming, everyone gained a lot.
Fortunately, with the help of "Firefly" as a reconnaissance pioneer, the wizards did not suffer much loss.
As more and more resources were collected, the recruited wizards began to be willing to use potions to restore their souls that were damaged by the mental impact of the soul contract.
The only troublesome thing is that the fat wizard who serves as the core of the reconnaissance seems to be unable to hold on.
During the rest period tonight, the wizards gathered together for a rare occasion.
Because after some exploration, Levin Mills discovered a relatively stable large area.
He decided to have everyone go there to search tomorrow.
It was also for this reason that the wizards had to gather together to regroup.
Benjamin followed the spiritual navigation between the "fireflies" and arrived at the gathering point.
He thought it was normal at first, until his eyes fell on the portly wizard and he was shocked.
Strictly speaking, there are no more "fat wizards" in Jack's team now.
Instead, there was a wizard who looked as if all his vitality had been drained away and was as emaciated as a stick.
If he hadn't been able to feel the weak soul breath on the opposite side and confirmed that this guy was the fat wizard from before, Benjamin wouldn't even dare to believe his eyes.
After glancing around, Benjamin quickly found Jack and approached him calmly.
"You're here? I thought you were coming later."
When Jack saw it was Benjamin, he subconsciously greeted him.
"Fortunately, I encountered a spatial distortion yesterday, and after I emerged, I was very close to the gathering point."
Benjamin signaled the skinny wizard with his eyes and asked, "Senior Jack, what's going on with that...?"
Jack followed his gaze and shrugged without much ceremony, a look of indifference on his face. "What else could it be? He's been using too much energy from the Yingworm lately, so his flesh and blood can't hold up."
Jieming was shocked when he heard this!
He had indeed witnessed the fat wizard's process of creating fireflies, but he had always believed that the other party's method of peeling off flesh and blood from his body and turning it into mosquitoes was just a special storage method similar to "flesh and blood compression".
Just like the armor Jack was wearing before could instantly expand into a huge human-shaped fortress, it was not because he violated the law of conservation of mass and energy, but because the armor was applied with "mechanical compression" technology.
Moreover, although the fat wizard had a huge body, the amount of fireflies he consumed in the past few days far exceeded his own weight, so Benjamin never thought about it.
After all, even in an extremely developed wizarding society, space equipment that can carry living things is extremely expensive, and ordinary low-level wizards simply cannot afford it.
Unexpectedly, he was actually peeling off his own flesh and blood!
Jieming couldn't help but open his eyes wide. "I didn't expect... that someone would actually use such self-destructive witchcraft. I really learned a lot..."
Jack couldn't help but glance at him with an inexplicable look when he heard that.
"What's wrong?" Benjamin felt that his eyes looked a little strange.
"No...it's okay." Jack shook his head and had no intention of continuing the conversation.
Benjamin was confused, not knowing what he had said wrong.
At this time, Levin Mills also came here and saw the miserable state of the "Fat Wizard".
His brows furrowed tightly, and he stepped forward worriedly to ask, "How's the situation? Can you still hold on?"
The former "fat wizard", now the "skinny wizard", forced a smile that was uglier than crying.
His voice was hoarse and weak, and he looked distressed: "If the losses continue like this, I can only hold on for thirteen days at most."
After hearing this, the other wizards couldn't help but shake their heads in their hearts.
If that's the case, then their mission this time will fail.
However, the wizards who were temporarily recruited seemed very calm, and could even be said to be in a good mood.
After all, they had gained quite a lot during this period. Even if they didn't get any reward for the mission, they could still be said to have made a lot of money and were already very satisfied.
Levin Mills walked forward, patted the skinny wizard's shoulder gently, and whispered a few words of comfort to him.
Then he turned around and began to explain tomorrow's search plan to everyone:
"Everyone, please be quiet."
His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
"I've just done a quick check of the area we're going to search tomorrow."
"It's different from the area we explored before. The overall height of that area is obviously much higher."
As Levin Mills continued his narration, the group understood the general situation of the area they were going to explore tomorrow.
If the area they searched before looked like a relatively 'flat' shape, then the area in front of them was an upside-down 'trapezoide'.
Not only does the height increase, but the area 'above' also becomes wider.
Previously, if a wizard wanted to search, he only needed to line up in a horizontal row and push forward to cover all the areas that needed to be searched.
But in this situation now...
