Volume 1 The Beginning of the White Capital Chapter 9 The Mist

According to the book, the black wind crow often takes advantage of the warm afternoon sun to fly out of the nest to feed. Due to their modest stature and low weight, they tend to fly at low altitudes to avoid cyclones and turbulence above Crow Valley.

But now, most of the black wind crows shuttle through the air much higher than before, and there are no black wind crows returning to their nests after foraging. The only five black wind crows that were attracted were also relatively old or skinny, with only undigested bait in their bellies, and no other food.

Sure that he would not be threatened by a large swarm of Black Wind Ravens, Totti stood up and stepped out of the hidden rock crevice. Standing on one side of the cliff, the cliff below is where the black wind crow nests, and the eyes are full of gray-brown nests, but at this time, there is not a single adult black wind crow, only a few nests, there are a few cubs.

Totti opened the book in his hand, uttered a brief incantation, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils had turned golden. Looking into the distance, but the view reached the other valley wall, and there was no abnormality.

Totti closed the book and turned to look at Chen Yuan and Chris on the other side. Chen Yuan also stood on a rock, but he also found nothing. On the contrary, Chris, after opening the 'Eagle Eyes', seems to have discovered something.

"Chris, did you find anything?" Totti walked over to the two of them.

"I don't see anything else wrong, it's, it seems, it's foggy?" The glint around Chris's eyes dissipated, scratching his head uncertainly.

Totti's pupils contracted instantly, "Oh no." ”

When I looked out again, I found that there was a not very obvious gray mist under the canopy at the bottom of the tree.

Chen Yuan's face also changed, and he remembered the record about Black Crow Valley in the geographical log of Bai Xiaozhidu that he saw yesterday:

“..... Twenty miles to the left of the City of Griffons, there is a basin formed by a large natural crack, which is called Crow Valley. The bottom of the valley is inhabited by low-level demonic beasts dominated by stone beetles, and on the cliff in the center of the valley is the home of the Black Wind Crow. These weak Tier 1 Demonic Beasts were not a threat to ordinary adventurers and passing caravans. The only thing to watch out for is the pool deeper below the cliff. During the 102nd year of the solar calendar, there was a war in the Youtan, and the tens of thousands of corpses left behind turned into spirits and other spirits in the Youtan after a few hundred years. These spirits are fatal to the vast majority of low-level fighters without a way to deal with them. Not only that, but it has been recorded that in the absence of obvious patterns, the Crow Valley has been filled with fog several times. In the only two reports of explorers who have experienced the mist, they describe the creatures in the valley as seemingly insane and aggressive; And in the direction of Youtan, there seem to be some strange sounds........."

The current scene is very similar to the description in the book.

"You have to get out of the valley right away." Totti's face was a little uneasy, and he thought he had seen the relevant records. Only Chris still has a stupid expression on his face, not knowing what happened.

"If this mission fails, I will personally explain to my father, the current situation is too weird, and we may not be able to guarantee our own safety if we stay."

After the three of them discussed now, Totti immediately discarded all the items in his backpack except for the materials of the five Black Wind Crows, which could lighten the weight a little.

Chen Yuan and Chris simply threw away their backpacks, which were full of supplies and camping equipment anyway.

They didn't feel much on the mountain, and after hurriedly descending to the foot of the cliff, the three of them felt the extent of the mist. Thirty meters away, things began to blur, and the fog continued to increase over time.

A cold feeling spread across the valley floor, and unlike the black wind crows in the sky, the sporadic stone beetles on the ground seemed to hibernate and remained in place.

'Warning, the concentration of dark elements in the surrounding environment is increasing, the concentration of psitrons is increasing, the environment is producing slight mental pollution, and the level of environmental danger is increasing'

'Warning, the environmental hazard level has been raised to LV.2 and is expected to be raised to LV.3 in 18 minutes'

"Warning, mission 2 has been changed due to risk factors, please check it out with the host's attention"

With three system warnings in a row, cold sweat came down on Chen Yuan's back.

When you can run, the system doesn't prompt, and it's exciting to have a clear problem before the prompt comes out.

"It's a big problem, although now we can still know the general direction according to the memory from when we came, but once we get into the fog, it won't be long before we lose our sense of direction and get lost in the woods." Totti's face also turned a little pale, "I'm afraid there's not much time left for us, do you have anything you can do?" ”

The light in Chris's eyes flickered, and he shook his head: "No, the 'Eagle Eyes' can't pass through these fogs. ”

Chen Yuangang wanted to shake his head, but his mind suddenly lit up, Gan, isn't there a system map! My pig brain actually forgot this stubble, because I was still panicked just now.

Chen Yuan hurriedly opened the first module of the system and opened the map of 'Black Crow Valley'.

'Map Expanded'

Really! His location on the map is clearly marked, and after completing the task one, except for the secluded pool, the other locations and road conditions in the Crow Valley are clearly displayed on the map.

"I have a way, you follow me, I know the way out" Chen Yuan immediately spoke, he couldn't wait for no time, and in another eighteen minutes, the ghost would know what would come out. Totti and Chris were almost desperate, and suddenly Chen Yuan said that there was a way, which was undoubtedly a surprise, and at such a time, it would not be or be too late to wonder why Chen Yuan suddenly knew the way to come, and hurriedly followed Chen Yuan's footsteps.

Ten minutes later, the trio managed to break out of the fog and return to the entrance where they started.

The entrance is the mouth of the Great Rift Valley, and in the past, due to the special topography of the valley, a cool and rapid wind blew all year round, but at this time, there was no wind at all.

The fog behind them grew thicker, and Totti and Chris were panting as they leaned against the protruding rocks beside them, as did Chen Yuan.

Both Totti and Chris have only 6 physiques, which is only slightly higher than the average person, and the actual stamina is only a little more than the average person. One is because of the bias of the war position and the low growth; One is because the body is stocky, which exacerbates the consumption of endurance. Chen Yuan won't say it, if it weren't for the physique much higher than the two of them, his tin cans would have been explained halfway through.

After resting for a while, all three regained some strength.

Chen Yuan opened the task list and found that the name of task 2 had changed from 'The Hidden Pool under the Black Crow Valley' to 'Quell Resentment', and the color had also changed from blue to red in the general adventure mission.

On the side of the task, there is a blood-red downward arrow that was not there before, and it seems that there is hidden information that needs to be clicked.
