The disappearing mist
Kate sat on top of the high city wall, looking into the distance.
His line of sight was different from that of others; he looked straight into the core area of the Eastern Continent, where the mother tree itself was located.
Fei Leng, Lixia, Alex, Elena and others rode on flying dragons to the top.
Ougst's claws stopped at the top of the wall, crushed a part of it, and squatted heavily on it.
There were mixed emotions in his eyes.
Elena asked, "Are you still scared?"
August said: "........Well, it's not as scary as I imagined."
The demon disaster left a deep shadow on him in his childhood. His parents and relatives died in front of him. After he fled to the Western Continent, he stayed in a secluded place, with a lingering feeling of insecurity in his heart. Finally, he hid himself in a cave until this human forcefully pulled him out.
August looked at Elena and emphasized again: "Of course, if a tiny human like you is not afraid, why should I be afraid?"
Elena patted his wings and said, "I was often beaten when I was a child. I am not afraid because I know that I will beat him one day."
August said: "If you ever die in battle, I will be the first to laugh at your grave."
Elena: "Death does not necessarily mean that a person has been defeated. My body can be destroyed, but I will never be defeated because death will not let me admit defeat."
August: "You are a rogue at all times."
Elena said: "However, I recently discovered that under certain special circumstances, I would also admit defeat, because someone made me lose willingly."
August: “…….What?”
Elena grinned: "I won't tell you."
Fei Leng asked Kate, who was carrying the black bat wings, "How is it? Is there any change?"
Kate rubbed her eyes and said in Chune language with a strong Eastern Continental accent: "The five knights are still the same, nothing has changed. Damon captures people every day, and sometimes he also captures some pure bloods and beasts to feed to my mother. He has divided them into many groups."
Fei Leng asked: "Has Ruojin discovered you?"
Kate: "It seems that he didn't, otherwise he would have been staring at me. I think my vision distance is farther than his."
Fei Leng: "What about the king's fetus?"
Kate stared at it intently for a while and said, "The outer membrane of the flower embryo has become more transparent. I can see the human figure inside. It is not a juvenile... It seems to be an adult with a human-like shape. The gender cannot be seen for the time being, and there are few other characteristics."
Alex unwrapped the cloth package on his back and found a spear inside.
Elena asked: "The one with live gold?"
Alex nodded, stroking the spear made of living gold and wrapping it with his own magic.
Before he left the temple, he had asked Elither to knock down a piece of living gold, which was used to make this. His grandfather's friend was still alive, and he and his grandson reforged the weapon together to strengthen their two swords.
Alex asked Fei Leng: "How long ago was the last time you went ashore to look for someone?"
Fei Leng: "About a month ago, but actually I couldn't find any traces of surviving humans and demons a year ago. Why do you ask?"
Alex's expression darkened. He clenched the spear and raised it. He said to Kate, "I'm going to throw this over there. You try to catch up with it."
Elena couldn't help asking: "What do you want to do?"
Kate opened her mouth in astonishment. "You just said you were going to throw this thing to the other side of the continent?"
Alex said to Elena, "It's hard to explain. Just wait and see." He then said to Kate, "It would be best if you could point out the specific direction of the royal fetus to me. However, it doesn't matter." The last half of his sentence sounded almost like a murmur to himself.
Kate thought about it, reached out her hand, poked into the eye socket, dug out her left eye, and handed it to Alex, "You can use my eyes to see."
Elena: “............” Even she was shocked by such a scene.
Alex hesitated for a moment and asked, "How do I use it?"
Kate placed her eye on his forehead, and the eyeball melted into his forehead like water.
Alex felt a slight sting, and then his vision changed.
As the eyeball on the forehead had a double red pupil on top of the black pupil, the scenery outside Zedo came into view clearly.
Alex closed his eyes involuntarily.
Without the interference of other perspectives, he could see the scenery more clearly.
The bluish-purple light, the towering plants, the thin plant membranes, the beating blood vessels, and the flowing amniotic fluid were all clearly visible.
It was the first time he saw the environment through the eyes of a demon, and he was stunned because it was completely different from the perspective of humans.
But Alex didn't hesitate.
He took a step forward, gathering his strength.
--------pound!!!!!
The living golden spear passed a short distance and made a sound of breaking through the air.
The spear was aimed directly at the royal fetus hanging on the mother tree.
The distance of several Zedor Straits and half a continent was covered in just two breaths.
Because he passed through two magic circles.
Bixi, who was sitting far away, took back the wand she had extended and said, "It must be in the wrong position."
Alex closed his eyes and replied, "It's okay."
Fei Leng, Lixia and Elena had no idea what he was doing.
Alex just stretched out his hand and flicked it lightly.
Kate looked with her remaining eye.
As Alex's hand moved, the spear that passed through another fixed-point teleportation magic circle turned in another direction and pierced the royal fetus.
Kate swallowed involuntarily.
At first, I was amazed that Alex could change the direction of the weapon at such a long distance, but then I saw that unbelievable scene.
Although the spear pierced the king's fetus, it actually went straight through.
Just like piercing through an illusory mist or a reflection on the water, the "royal fetus" trembled a little and then returned to its original state.
"What...is going on?" Kate murmured.
Alex manipulated the spear and lifted it from the ground, sweeping across everything around him quickly, and soon turned into a small golden whirlwind.
Black plant debris can be seen in the wind.
You can also see distortions in the surrounding scene.
But the demons that passed through the storm all passed through with an indifferent attitude, twisted a bit, and then returned to their original state.
Kate gasped.
Fei Leng asked: "Kate, what did you see?"
Kate stammered, "I don't know..."
Alex said, "It means that what you see may not be the truth."
He took the initiative to stop the movement of the spear. The golden spear stopped spinning and flew back along the same path. It took a long time to cross the distance.
Alex explained during this time: "The knight next to the flower fetus wove a huge illusion that covered the entire continent. It was probably a few months ago. What you saw was always an illusion. The king's fetus was not there."
Fei smiled coldly: "Glo."
He calmed down and said, "However, the appearance of the prince fetus is most likely real. His illusions are all based on reality. Those fake people are also images of people who once existed."
Lie Xia said: "Since it is all an illusion, how can we see it clearly?"
Alex took the returned Living Golden Spear and said, "There is a simple and effective method."
The next day, as they approached the Eastern Continent by boat, they stopped on a nearby reef.
Blue Scale came out of the cabin.
His body and hair were wet.
Elena smiled and shook her head: "He's really a strange guy who can't live without water for a moment."
Bluescale ignored her and jumped into the ocean.
The wizards led by the Pope, Bisi, Vito, Leonardine, Milia and others stood on the deck together and raised their wands.
Under the guidance of Blue Scale's miraculous abilities and the wizard.
The sea surged.
The stirred-up sea water was like a giant tsunami hitting the shore, and in an instant it turned into dozens of waterspouts that reached the sky.
Under the magic of wind and water.
The climate is changing rapidly.
However, it lived up to their expectations.
After they held out for more than an hour, dark clouds gathered.
Then the wizard splashed the raised sea water onto the land.
As the water vapor dissipates.
The mirage gradually dissipated, revealing its true face.
Wow!!!!!!!!!
The mainland, which had not seen rain for a long time, was now covered in heavy rain.
The human allies followed this artificially induced rain into the eastern continent.
Rain and sea water cannot cause any substantial damage to the demons.
But the illusion of dispersal can be dispelled.
Mackay Olin exclaimed: "If you hadn't proposed it, no one would have thought of such a method."
Alex shook his head and said nothing more.
This method was the result of accumulated experience from countless deaths, and he did not want to recall it.
Moreover, at that time, they did not have enough manpower to complete it and could only wait for God's gift.
After landing, the scenery we saw was the same as the last time.
The black land, with no grass growing on it, is as hard as iron.
The skeletons of various unknown creatures were soaked in the swamp, and their original white color could no longer be seen.
The vines of the plant were everywhere, but they all gave off a foul odor and their appearance was horrible to the eye.
A veritable place of death.
Elena rode up on Auguste.
They flew higher than ever before, beyond the confines of the miasma.
Oxygen levels dropped sharply.
Waves of clouds surged against my head, and I could even hear faint thunder and lightning.
The hail had not yet had time to melt into rain and hit her armor.
But as a high-ranking knight, Elena only felt a little cold.
August flapped his wings and tried hard to keep his balance in the storm, like an unstable boat.
Elena pulled Kate and said, "Look carefully, listen carefully."
Kate had already taken his eyes back and put them back in.
He looked down intently.
Magic and sea tornadoes are just the beginning.
They were able to implement this plan by observing the movements of clouds and rain.
They certainly understand that weather conditions over such a wide area cannot be fully controlled by human power.
However, the sky was favorable, and a large-scale rain cyclone covered the northern part of the eastern mainland more quickly than expected.
This means that the entire area covered by the illusion is included.
The illusion gradually dissipated in the heavy rain.
Kate's eyes could see far away and she quickly scanned the vast land.
Raising him to such a high position also enables him to have a better overview of the entire continent.
As he watched, his mouth gradually opened wider, and then he took a breath.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
The cold air rushed into his throat and lungs like a knife, but due to lack of oxygen, he immediately started coughing.
Elena lowered her altitude a little.
As the rain fell, some of the miasma also adhered to the ground, allowing us to see many things clearly.
Of course, humans on the ground took precautions to avoid being poisoned.
Elena shook Kate off: "What did you see?! Tell me!"
Kate pinched her neck and finally spoke: "No more!"
"What's gone!"
“All gone!!!”
"Um???"
After Elena found out the details, she quickly took him down to join the main force.
As soon as Elena went down, she yelled, "They're all gone!!!"
Alex looked at her calmly: "Are you saying that all the demons, monsters, and humans have disappeared?"
Elena raised her eyebrows, stopped, and threw Kate forward: "Huh? How did you already know?"
Alex said, "We haven't seen a single living thing since we came here."
Mackay Olin also frowned and confirmed with him again: "You didn't miss it up there, did you? Didn't he hide somewhere?"
Kate shook her head and pointed at her ears. "The Saints didn't build underground cities. Their homes are all above ground. If there were other demons left alive, I would have heard their voices. But there weren't any. I only heard each of you... Ah, not all of you. The five of you are still here."
"Then... five knights?" Tels clenched the sword in his hand.
Kate nodded.
Fei Leng saw that he looked a little strange and asked, "Where is the prince's fetus?"
Kate's ears moved, and the double pupils in his eyes appeared and disappeared repeatedly. He finally spoke with difficulty: "Just now, he was born..."
Amid the noisy sound of rain, silence is deafening.
Kate put her hands to her head.
He also heard some whispers that he shouldn't have heard.
"Mother" is really going to have a decisive battle with them.
Lixia touched the goose bumps on her arms.
She is a demon, but her bloodline is not pure.
But even though she was nearly two-thirds of a continent away, she could still feel that creepy aura.
She was not a demon king, and she had no strength to resist, so she just sat paralyzed on the ground.
Fei Leng's face was solemn. He reached out and pulled Lixia up, looked at Duper, and nodded.
Duper, with trembling hands and feet, disappeared without hesitation.
In an instant, Dooper appeared on one of the ships they had stranded on the shore.
The boatman saw him and went over to ask, "What happened?"
Duper didn't care about this. He took out the nameplate hanging around his neck and started the communication using the method taught by Fei Leng.
"It's me."
A cold and quiet voice came out from it.
Du Po said anxiously: "The baby has been born. It's dangerous. Come quickly!"
"………good."
Inger loosened his grip on the nameplate and looked towards the door of the room.
