Chapter 296: Dense Fog

ยท

The journey from Thunder Peak to Foggy Lake Town was not far, and although it was difficult to walk at night and under dark clouds, Lord Porta's steps became more and more brisk, even if the road under his feet began to slowly become muddy.

Porta is very happy, walking under the moon with his wife, not to mention how pleasant it is.

"My lord, to be honest, I really didn't expect you to bring me with me, after all, destroying Fog Lake Town is such an important task, thank you for trusting me."

"Yes, you're right."

Yuan Huang didn't bother to explain to Porta. Foggy Lake Town must not be destroyed, now that Yuanhuang has seen it through, the Water Tribe must also have several artifact fragments, if you fight with them, it will be difficult to obtain artifact fragments with full energy.

And there's no trust at all. Yuan Huang had just fished Porta back from the Fire Clan, could he watch a piece of fat run back and forth on the side of his mouth? Impossible.

However, this piece of fat is not conscious at all, but instead has a very high sense of historical mission, and Porta begins to think that he must come in handy in the slaughter of the city in order to repay the Heavenly Mage for saving his life.

Porta is by no means the kind of villain who easily slaughters the city, but he doesn't care if it's for his benefactor or if it's a big deal. There are many patriots in the Starfall Continent, and Porta is one of them, and he understands that destroying Misty Lake Town can deepen relations with the neighboring Fire Clan, even though Yuan Huang didn't think about it at all.

Even if the night is dark and cloudy, a vast silver fog can be seen in the distance. According to the map in Yuanhuang's impression, it should be the town of Foggy Lake. Although I don't know how far away the town is, the map shows that it is just a small town, but if you think about it, it must be the scribbled world map of the Starfall Continent that has been drawn wrong, otherwise how could it be that the Fire Clan army would not be able to capture a "small" town for thousands of years.

But all fortresses must be subject to natural hazards, and this place is no exception.

The strange roar that I could hear just now confirmed as I got closer to the sound of rushing water. Located at the junction of the border of fire and water, close to steep mountains such as Thunder Peak, a wide river is converging by mountains and rivers, running through the inland sea of land within the territory of the water tribe, rolling and rushing to the southwest, its sound is as great as the thunder of ten thousand thunders, especially the closer it gets.

Nearby is the battlefield where the two armies of water and fire frequently fight, and the surrounding vision is wide, and there is no grass and no grass.

Behind Genhuang and Bota is a distant woods that almost melt into the night, sparse mountains of silhouetted warriors in the mist on the left, jagged shallows like teeth on the right, and fog in front of them.

This is the biggest landmark of Foggy Lake Town.

And the only one.

The mist in the hazy moonlight shimmered with silver, cold and lonely, as if it was rejecting anyone's visit, hiding everything that lay ahead. Where is the town? Where is the lake again? I don't see the slightest clue at all.

"If it were me, I would definitely send a small number of soldiers to patrol the border."

"It's common sense, but it's ......"

There was no half-figure outside the edge of the fog, let alone a patrol. There were no torches, no light, no sound of Suo's footsteps, and it seemed to be completely engulfed in a thick silver fog.

The shape of the fog is very close to the hemispherical cover, and when you look at it from a distance, you feel that the shape is as if it has been cut by someone, but when you get closer, you realize that it is not an illusion, and the boundary between fog and non-fog is clear and clear, as if it has been artificially processed.

Yuan Huang took off his gloves and put his hand into the mist. Sure enough, the fog is infected with mana, thin but high-level, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an ordinary fog.

The Starfall Continent knows very little about Misty Lake Town.

Basically, the Starfall Continent has trade with all the forces in the world, and the Huidi merchant group, which is the first to promote the Teleportation Emperor, and the Forerunner and Nikoyid also have some overseas business. Some people go, some people return, and some people bring intelligence, whether it is folk rumors or military reconnaissance, they will always accumulate more and more and constantly refresh. Starfall Continent's understanding of the Water Tribe is the least among the five clans, but it is barely enough to know.

However, every time they entered the territory of the Aqua Tribe, they would either take a boat or a teleportation station from the west coast, and a few caravans would travel directly from the territory of the Wood Tribes by land from east to west, but no one would enter from the south side.

Just because there is the town of Fog Lake.

The relationship between the five elemental tribes can hardly be called harmonious. The most peace-loving is the Wood Clan, followed by the Shui Clan, but despite this, the five clans are still all enemies, but to different degrees. As the biggest enemy in defense, the Fire Clan, Fog Lake Town has a very important military significance, but it is not a convenient place for merchants from the Starfall Continent to pass by, mages to practice, and tourists to sightsee. To this day, the town of Foggy Lake still maintains its own veil of mystery in front of the world, refusing to be visited by the outside world.

Even if it was useless to stare at the thick fog for a long time, Yuan Huang decided to walk in first, so he walked into the fog full of mana and officially stepped into the territory of Fog Lake Town.

As soon as Porta entered the fog, he quickly began to cough, unlike Genhuang who wore a mask with air filtration. The fog was so thick that it had lasted for thousands of years, and it was already close to miasma, irritating Porta's airways.

"It's not going to be poisonous, ahem."

"The Thunder Emperor said that there is no poison, it should be credible, but looking at her unfinished attitude, it seems that this fog is not safe, you cover your mouth and nose, you can't bear it, just wait for me outside."

"I, ahem, it's okay."

"Quiet, you're exposing your position like that. I would have liked to sneak in and explore the way first. โ€

After hearing this, Porta gradually held back his cough, probably because he was used to the fog or the fog itself was really not too disturbing, and the phenomenon of irritation of the trachea was only temporary, and the effect on the body was not serious.

"Was there any poisoning or any discomfort?"

"I think it's okay."

After repeatedly confirming Bota's safety, Yuan Huang continued to move forward, he didn't want to enter this place in order to obtain artifact fragments, but lose another piece, wouldn't it be in vain.

I couldn't see the road in the first ten steps, I couldn't see the Lord Porta in the middle ten steps, and I couldn't see my hands in the last ten steps, and the fog inside was much thicker than it could be seen from afar, seriously hindering the movement.

"Danger to adults!"

Yuan Huang suddenly stepped into the air and fell downward, but was suspended by Porta using magic in time and slowly put back to the ground.

The fog was too big to see clearly.

The source is undecided.

Thinking that it would not be possible to go on like this, there might be uneven ground in front of him, and this was the rhythm of falling to death for no apparent reason, so he took out his air pressure rifle and blew away the fog in front of him with minimal power.

As the nearby vision gradually cleared and widened, Yuan Huang couldn't help but gasp.

It's the river. Very wide river. Under the cover of thick fog, there is no end in sight.

Yuan Huang almost stepped on the air just now, falling from a cliff with a height of more than twenty meters into the extremely fast river. If there are rocks underneath, Yuanhuang is confident that it can be protected by a one-piece suit if it falls for a thousand meters, but if it is swept away by the river, there will be no bones left. That's where the roar of the rushing stream comes from.

He almost died before he even entered the town.
