Chapter 45: The Mists of Death
At midnight, in the basin of death, dozens of kilometers away from the ruins, the Desert Rose led by Olena was facing the biggest crisis since their departure.
The Death Basin is also a relatively peculiar area of the desert, and like the Flame-breathing Basin with the Sycamore Divine Tree, it also belongs to the most dangerous life forbidden area in the desert.
The Fire-breathing Basin is famous for the Sycamore Sacred Tree, while the Death Basin is famous for the fog of death that envelops it all year round.
How many bones are buried in the Death Basin, and whether its formation is caused by super divine beasts, these are impossible to delve into, but the only thing that can be determined is that since the formation of this huge basin, some incredible changes have begun to occur in it, becoming more and more dangerous, and I don't know what started, a black gas shrouded the entire Death Basin.
According to powerful trainers who emerged alive from the Basin of Death, the black gas itself is not poisonous, but miraculously, it has the strange ability to block light.
In the Death Basin, the maximum distance of lighting is about 4 meters, once this distance is exceeded, no matter how strong the light will disappear, if there is no special wayfinding means, in the dark environment where the light is blocked, it is easy to get lost, and then trapped in the Death Basin.
It is precisely because of the existence of this special gas that the entire Death Basin is like night even during the day, and the sunlight cannot penetrate the black gas shrouded in the Death Basin to reach the ground.
In addition, this black gas also seems to have the ability to accelerate the consumption of biological energy, and any living creature who stays in the death basin shrouded in black gas for several hours, even if it sits still in place, will feel weak.
Therefore, because of this terrifying ability, no creature will dare to stay in the Death Basin for a long time, because if you stay in it for a long time, if you don't have a special means to restore your strength, even if the danger inside doesn't come to you to trouble, you will die because of your own exhaustion.
Another point is the most amazing time, the entire Death Basin seems to be shrouded in an invisible barrier, so that this black gas will not float out of the Death Basin due to the influence of any external force, even if there is an air flow in the Death Basin, this black gas will only continue to linger in the Death Basin, unable to leave the Death Basin for a millimeter.
Over time, trainers who came to this island for adventures aptly named the black gas in the Death Basin the Mist of Death.
In addition to the Mist of Death, there are also countless dangers in the Death Basin, among which a large number of skeleton soldiers controlled by mysterious forces and a large number of ghost-based elves entrenched in it, which are the two deadliest blades in the forbidden area of life in the Death Basin.
.......
Like the rest of the desert, the danger factor in the Death Basin is much lower during the day than at night, and the most dangerous time in the Death Basin is at midnight, when even if there are no living creatures inside, it is bustling with activity, and the eerie howls of ghosts and wolves continue to echo in it.
In the depths of the Basin of Death, Olena and a group of members of the Desert Rose were struggling to find something, but more than five hours had passed since they entered the Basin of Death at nightfall, and now that the thing had not been found, their group had already encountered no less than a dozen attacks, and at this time, the original team of twelve people was now left with ten people.
"Rata Rata Rata Rata ~~" A chaotic sound sounded, and at this time, a group of Desert Rose members gathered in a circle, and around them, a skeleton with bones left on their heads and bodies was surrounding them.
Among these white bone skeletons, there are human skeletons, there are also elf skeletons, each of their empty eye sockets is burning with a pale ghost fire, it seems to be full of jealousy and resentment towards the living beings, these white bone skeletons since the desert rose and others entered the death basin, they have been awakened from the underground by a mysterious existence one after another, and then manipulated, besieging these creatures again and again.
"Damn, the number of these disgusting things has increased again, they are coming up, sisters, assist me, Flame Lion, Fire Beast, Duckbill Flame Dragon, join forces to use the Flame Vortex to form the largest range of fire walls." Seeing a large number of skeleton soldiers walking into her line of sight, Alan, who was already a little out of breath, immediately commanded the members of the Desert Rose around her to attack.
When the same panting Flame Lion, Flame Beast, and Duck-billed Flame Dragon heard the order, they immediately spewed high-temperature flames at the large number of skeleton soldiers in front of them, and three flames of different colors converged together, and then formed a wall of fire with a length of more than 10 meters.
At the same moment, the seven members of the Desert Rose who were beside Alan also immediately took action, obeying Alan's orders, and released the only fire-type elves in their hands, allowing them to use a jet of flames against the wall of fire, thus injecting flame energy into the wall of fire formed by Alan's fire-type elves.
For a while, the length and width of the wall of fire continued to increase, and then under the command of Alan, a group of fire elves worked together to turn the wall of fire into a ring of fire, protecting Desert Rose and the others.
Flames seem to be the nemesis of these skeleton soldiers, under the wall of fire formed by the flame vortex move with a relatively wide coverage, a large number of skeleton soldiers have not been able to pass through the wall of fire formed by the flame vortex, their white bone bodies have been ignited, and then they have been burned into a pile of black ashes.
Relying on the wall of fire maintained by Alan and several members of the Desert Rose, the advance of the large number of skeleton soldiers surrounded by the Desert Rose and the others was finally stopped.
Taking advantage of this time, Caitlin, who is the team's healing trainer, also seized the time to continue to direct her Miss Flash Skirt to make healing potions for the injured trainers and elves in the team.
At the same time, in order to restore the physical strength that the combatants consumed quickly, Caitlyn also constantly took out bottles of self-concocted physical strength recovery potions from her body, and handed them to Alan and the others who were fighting, regardless of their previous suspicions.
The entire Desert Rose team was able to penetrate deep into the treacherous Death Basin, and has been able to sustain it until now, thanks to the two deputy leaders, Alan, who is in charge of the battle, and Caitlin, who is in charge of logistics.
However, the number of skeleton soldiers in the Death Basin is too much, almost endless, even if the flames have restrained them, but in the face of their huge numbers, the defense of the fire ring formed by the wall of fire is already in danger, and Olena, who is the strongest combat force at this time, is not present for some reason, and the situation of the members of the Desert Rose is very unoptimistic.
What's more, those ghostly elves hidden in the darkness also appeared one after another when the power of the wall of fire gradually weakened, and some dream demons and dream demons who were proficient in illusion also frequently carried out mental attacks on these women whose physical strength and willpower were consumed to the extreme, trying to drag them into the dream realm.
Soon, several members of the Desert Rose and the fire elves who had assisted Alan in maintaining the wall of fire suddenly fell to the ground, and the defenses formed by the wall of fire were immediately broken through by the steady stream of skeleton soldiers that followed, and began to further compress their survival.
"Come on, we can't fall until Lord Olena returns." Enduring the bouts of dizziness in his head, Alan gritted his teeth and shouted.
Just when the members of the Desert Rose were about to lose their support, a deafening dragon roar appeared, accompanied by a powerful coercion that suddenly descended, and the ghostly elves around them who were hiding in the darkness and attacking were like frightened birds, and they fled four times, and the skeleton soldiers besieged the Desert Rose and the others, the ghost fire in their eyes was also extinguished, and they fell down in pieces, turning back into a pile of broken bones.
Seconds later, Olena descended on a formidable Tyrannosaurus, and beside her, a stunted and bloodless member of the Desert Rose lay beside her.
"Come on, everybody, I've found the location, Caitlyn, treat her immediately." Olena said to the Desert Roses as their faces showed hope.
