Chapter 343: The Depths of the Haze Plains
The gray-black fog was churning.
The rumbling sound was muffled by the fog and didn't spread far.
The battle between Chen Lun and the deformed giant wolf lasted for several minutes, and it took a lot of high-intensity fighting before finally the intractable polluted creature was completely blasted.
[Kill the polluted creature 'Moonless Shadow'!] Earn 30,000 XP! 】
He slowly fell back to the ground, breathing a little heavily.
Competing with an opponent of this level, Chen Lun did not develop the "Pale Knight" form, and only barely killed him after exhausting all other means. Roxanne was a little inferior to it.
This is still a polluted creature with no intelligence, and with his fighting instinct alone, he has forced Chen Lun to such an extent...... This can't help but make him more vigilant, what kind of indescribable horror does the pollution source of the fairyland, similar to the wonder of the "inverted giant tree", contain?
Directly on the ground in front of him, a disgusting pool of flesh and blood was left behind, slowly melting into shadowy mud and gradually seeping into the black sand and stone.
Chen Lun rested in place for a while, and after the giant wolf's corpse completely disintegrated and disappeared, he picked up the transcendent materials it had precipitated. It was a jelly-like black mass, quite of high quality.
He nodded in satisfaction, put the transcendent material away, and continued on his way.
After rushing some way deeper into the plains, Chen Lun's spiritual instincts began to send warnings.
This feeling of déjà vu reminded him of the previous breakthrough through the Natural Forest.
It's very close, and most of the sources of pollution in the Haze Plains are ahead! ’
Chen Lun's eyes froze.
Wow –
The gray-black fog in front of him suddenly drifted away, and he actually walked out of the fog area and came to an open place.
Zizizizi......
A dense noise followed.
Chen Lun endured the discomfort and raised his eyes.
At the end of the field of vision, there was a distorted and chaotic color, very similar to the horizon of a lakeside hut. In the distance, in the distance, stands a towering black mountain, and at the top of the mountain range, a pale snowy landscape......
'Not true! ’
Chen Lun shook his head, he felt that there was something wrong with his vision.
The noise in his ears was still around, and he was a little upset.
The sanity value had begun to decline rapidly, Chen Lun took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and used his five senses to perceive the black mountain range with all his might-
This time, there was a very different scene!
That "towering mountain" was actually a corpse lying on the boundless wasteland!
Huge corpses that resemble wolf-like creatures!
The long, narrow head hung low, obscured by its forelimbs, and its face was invisible, only a thick black mist rising from its open mouth and reaching into the sky. It is like a waterfall falling down, forming a dense fog on the entire gloomy plain......
The black hair on the body is straight, like a secluded forest, the outline of the back is a ridge, six crooked, long legs form a hillside, and the black mouth on the abdomen, like a crack in the mountain wall, from which flows a black "mountain spring", around the corpse, forming a black lake!
It'...... He is the source of pollution in the Haze Plains?! ’
Chen Lun felt extremely shocked at the perceived picture.
The aura coming from the Corpse Mountain Range was far from being comparable to that of ordinary polluted creatures, it was an extremely high-level existence! He even guessed that it was the corpse of the gods!
"No, He may not be the real polluter......"
Chen Lun shifted his attention to the top of the "mountain range", the layer of snow covering the top of the mountain was actually not a "snow scene", but a thick cobweb! Countless silk threads are intertwined into a spider silk area.
The source of the spider silk came from the neck of the corpse, where a huge white cocoon of an ellipsoid was rooted, and it was still wriggling, as if there was some unimaginable horror inside.
The sanity value began to be consumed rapidly, and the huge pollution radiated along Chen Lun's perception.
He couldn't help but shake his body.
Extraordinary knowledge of the conspiratorial path began to emerge.
It was so similar to what he had encountered over the Nature's Forest, and it confirmed his suspicions.
Sure enough! Each area of the fairyland represents a pathway, and there are also spectacle sources of pollution! ’
But what is the wolf-shaped corpse mountain and the cocoon of the cobweb?!
Chen Lun speculated in his mind based on what he had seen and heard, perhaps, the black wolf was killed by the white cocoon?!
He didn't know, he couldn't see the truth at all, but it was the only result he could understand.
That's when it happened.
In the "Black Blood Lake" in front of the wolf-shaped corpse mountain, bubbles began to bulge, and one after another deformed giant wolves slowly crawled out of it, just like the kind of polluted creatures that Chen Lun had fought against!
A powerful monster called "Moonless Shadow"!
After they were born from the lake, they rushed towards Chen Lun in unison!
Again...... The source of the pollution is impossible to approach, and it is impossible to perceive it deeply, and the warning of spiritual intuition is extremely strong, and it is a terrifying secret that I cannot touch! ’
Chen Lun repeated his old tricks, letting the deformed giant wolf run towards him, he stared at the white cocoon of the corpse mountain with his own care, let the pollution attack, and then used the reserve sanity of the Maggie statue to counteract, leaving only endless knowledge!
More than a dozen seconds are fleeting.
Chen Lun chose to leave at the last moment when the giant wolf pounced.
The wooden house in his mind disappeared in an instant.
Returning to the safety of the archive point again, Chen Lun's reaction this time was even more violent, he fell to the ground on the spot, rolling with his head in his hands, and his mouth was retching constantly.
"Ugh! Yes! ”
The muffled growl continued for several minutes before it slowly calmed down.
Chen Lun lay motionless on the ground, sweat soaking his back clip.
He stared calmly at the ceiling and forced a smile.
Just like last time, he managed to get the complete knowledge of the low and middle sequences of the conspiracy pathway!
[Sequence 9 - The Thief] and [Sequence 8 - The Lockpick] have been mastered and are duplicates, but [Sequence 7 - Assassin], [Sequence 6 - The Shadowless] and [Sequence 5 - The Undertaker] have not ...... Now it's all in one go!
Although the sanity reserve of the Maggie statue was reduced by nearly two thousand points again, Chen Lun thought it was worth it. He felt as if he had discovered a real treasure hidden in the fairyland!
But in this way, the crisis in the small town of Gatzt seems like an almost impossible task...... The white cocoon of the corpse mountain is not at all the high-level existence that I can touch now. ’
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
Hours later.
Chen Lun returned to the present world, and after taking the tranquilizer and thirst potion, he took a rest.
In the wee hours of the night, he entered the wonderland again.
This time, he headed straight for the River of Blood region.
The purpose is clear, the intention is to find the pollution wonders there, and to receive the corresponding knowledge of the flesh pathway. But this time, it didn't go well.
He searched carefully at the bottom of the canyon, along the river beach, and explored back and forth around the blood lake several times, but he did not find the source of pollution similar to the "inverted giant tree" and the "white cocoon of the corpse mountain......
In the end, Chen Lun even endured his nausea and used his "spiritual breath" to sink to the bottom of the blood lake...... But in the end, there was nothing to gain except to fight with the giant octopus monster.
The strength of the octopus monster was also at the limit level of the middle sequence, but Chen Lun didn't have the heart to entangle with it too much, and finally chose to leave, leaving that guy to toss around in the blood lake for a while.
Chen Lun was a little disappointed.
He gave up on the Blood Lake for the time being.
As for the Crystal Mountains area, it was not suitable for the current past, so the idea of continuing to search for pollution wonders was finally dispelled.
'When you're a little stronger, let's look for it again.' ’
He let out a long breath and left the fairyland.

Jewel Bang.
In a red-stricken city.
Polaris, Su Keying, Dongyang Chenxi and others are gathering in an abandoned warehouse.
"It's over, it's over...... I'm afraid I can't do this task! All this time of hard work has been in vain! ”
Doghead Jin leaned against a rusty iron pipe and sighed.
The two female players, Bald and Kucha Nana, glanced at him and complained:
"Can you please stop saying discouragement, it's very demoralizing!"
"I'm not wrong......"
Doghead Jin clasped his elbows in his hands and pouted.
The rest of the people didn't make a sound, just looked at the three people who were led by Polaris, Dongyang and Chenxi.
Their faces were not good-looking, and they were solemn and contemplative.
"I'm sorry, this time my intelligence work is not in place, I didn't expect the red disaster here to be so big...... At that time, I should have chosen another city. ”
Dongyang said in a deep voice to the other teammates.
"You can't be blamed for this, Dongyang, we were able to receive the task of the shelter in the first place, and it was all thanks to you...... And the other red-stricken areas are not necessarily easy, after all, this is a city-level red disaster, which is different from the small towns and villages we used to fight against. ”
Polaris patted the other on the shoulder and comforted.
"We left Amber City and crossed such a long distance to get here, the initial investment is already a sunk cost, now is not the time to be discouraged, we are only one step away from victory!"
At this time, Chenxi interjected more calmly:
"That's what I said, but how to solve the things that the team leader told us...... If we lose the chain and cause the 'Extraordinary Alliance' to fail, the punishment is very severe! ”
The expressions of the crowd suddenly returned to dullness.
The atmosphere briefly fell into a cold field.
The rewards for this quest are quite numerous, not only the [Imperial Soldier] subclass reward, but also a high amount of experience and some mysterious substances...... The most important thing is that they can also complete the second part of the circus's main quest and accumulate contributions!
They are unwilling to give up, but they face great difficulties.
The situation of the whole mission is to take the shelter as the leader and leader, and unite the recruited transcendents or transcendent forces to go to the Red Disaster Area to meet the Red Apple Church.
At first, it was nothing, everything went well, but until today, the "Extraordinary Alliance" faced the final hurdle, that is, the high-end combat power of the church district.
Polaris, their team, was tasked by the leader to lure out the three priests in the church area and kill them one by one. The problem is that they are both only Sequence 9 Transcendentals, while Priest is a mid-Sequence, and the gap between the two is too large.
Even if they rely on their immortal bodies to consume the number of resurrections to fight hard, they must output enough...... However, none of their attacks can break the Priest's defenses, and the Circus's Inkwell Bomb has limited damage to the mid-sequence transcendents.
Everything is deadlocked.
"Even the strongest North Star among us can't fight the priest at all...... Last time, I used 'Portrait of Jack', but that kind of prop is hard to come by. ”
Dongyang shook his head helplessly.
"Why don't we go to the lake hut and have a look, maybe the circus shop has been updated in the past two days."
Su Keying weakly made a suggestion on the side.
The others shook their heads, not holding out much hope.
"Then go and see, now you can only seize every opportunity."
Dongyang sighed.
