After the highly contaminating mycophilic liquid is put into use in a targeted manner, and before effective defense methods are available, its power will be catastrophic.

After crossing the defense line set up by the Sith on the outside of the Tower Land, the gray-black smoke can no longer be blocked and suppressed, especially as the mycophilic bacteria group that can regard the vertical pupil's body as a breeding ground is growing. After that, its scale, scope and speed of spread exceeded everyone’s imagination.

Therefore, for Raymond, who had prepared the mycophilic liquid, what he saw in front of him was particularly shocking.

The gray-black smoke that seemed thin but was actually extremely dense eventually formed a mycophilic fungus belt that was tens of meters high and nearly a hundred meters wide. It was continuously promoted and adjusted by the various wind spells released by the coalition forces. , advancing towards the interior of the Tower Land at an extremely fast speed.

Mycophilic bacteria, which have a corrosive effect on ordinary substances, have cut off a layer of the surface of the areas they pass through. As its concentration continues to increase, its coverage area continues to increase, and it is devouring After catching many vertical pupils who wanted to use various methods to dissipate them or slow them down, the Sith tribe, which had suffered heavy losses, completely gave up their resistance and retreated directly.

The coalition forces formed from the Far West, in the first month after launching the offensive, overwhelmingly destroyed the two lines of defense established by the Sith tribe in the western part of the earth, and then the third line of defense of the Sith tribe. They encountered resolute and tenacious resistance everywhere, with some heavy losses.

However, with the input of the mycophilic fluid that Moritz obtained from Raymond, the situation of the battle changed drastically.

Unable to resist the erosion of the mycophilic fungus, the Sith tribe collapsed thousands of miles away. After dismantling all the strongholds they established outside the Tower Land, they seemed to regard the Tower Land as their last territory and wanted to develop the most powerful force. Tough resistance.

However, the mycophilic bacteria liquid mixed with the devil's gene has strong engulfing and ablation properties, making it impossible to get rid of it once it reaches a large scale, and there is no possibility of even stopping its spread.

Therefore, when the battle situation was quickly established, what was revealed in front of the coalition forces was the land of high towers without any resistance, and everything that had been destroyed by the war.

Raymond did not act with the coalition forces. Together with little Alice, who was pulled out from the coalition forces, she accompanied the old dean Seurat and Talist to prepare to go to the independent space where the Council of Elders was located. Therefore, when crossing the occupied areas covered by mycophilic bacteria, we can see the different appearances of the smoke on both sides formed by the mycophilic bacteria.

Although the areas that have not been eroded by the mycophilic bacteria are devastated and full of ruins, the prosperity of the original land of towers can still be vaguely seen.

Although the remaining collapsed buildings were very different from what Raymond remembered, and most of the plants on the ground had been eradicated, you could still see the exquisite building materials. and the greenery of a plantation or flowerbed.

But in the areas where mycophilic bacteria had entered, everything turned purple-black. The remaining surfaces of the buildings in the ruins seemed to have been watered by strong acid, with pits and even rising gases of various colors. .

The ground surface became soft as if it had been soaked for a long time, and the supposedly solid foundation stones were loosened and turned into a substance like limestone.

The air is filled with a slightly acidic and slightly choking smell, and the dust or fine particles mixed in the air are mostly the strongest parts of the body of the vertical pupils and seem to be difficult to be digested by the mycophilic bacteria. resulting in residues.

Because it needs to pass through many polluted areas. Therefore, everyone has released double protection for themselves, but the mycophilus fused with the devil's gene has the effect of devouring any material and energy. Therefore, even if Raymond has reached the eighth level, he can only do so through the constant loss of mana and energy in his body. After entering, quickly leave.

Veronica, who seemed to have mastered the idea of ​​exchanging identities with little Alice, hid the moment she was found by Raymond. Therefore, little Alice, whose intellectual development was still stuck at the age of eight, was very worried about Raymond's appearance. I was delighted, and seemed to become more happy and relaxed after hitting the road.

"I remember it was a plantation there, and the pink cherry fruits produced were delicious..."

As little Alice opened her mouth, what Raymond saw when he turned his gaze was the rolled up purple-black soil on the hillside and the stinking ponds formed by pollution.

"Oops. It seems to be Aunt El's manor. Why is there no fountain anymore..."

"Which side... that side is my sister's favorite liquidambar orchard. They supply all the fruits at home. How did it become like this..."

She was mumbling her opinions, but little Alice's tone was getting lower and lower, and the frustration and loss in her expression made the old dean Seurat a little unbearable, so he patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.

Raymond had previously conducted various deductions on the consequences of mycophilic bacteria. However, the many mutations produced by the mycophilic bacteria in the open environment made the consequences beyond Raymond's imagination. It also made him come to a conclusion that he didn't want to believe after asking the chip to be reanalyzed.

Five hundred years!

The mutated bacterial flora that eroded the vertical pupils will take more than a hundred years to become harmless based on the rate at which their abilities decay with each generation.

However, if the environment it affects is to be restored to its original suitability for human habitation, it will take more than three hundred years for the probiotic flora in the original environment to gradually emerge, and then the environment of the Tower Land can be repaired.

It is equivalent to five times the originally expected time, and this is also based on the fact that the mycophilic bacteria can no longer produce special abilities during the reproduction process. Therefore, if various possibilities are added to it, then if you want to allow humans to regain their It will most likely take longer to return to the Tower Land.

Sensing that Raymond was a little depressed, the old dean Seurat spoke. "Raymond, the symbolic significance of the Tower Land to human wizards is greater than the significance of its existence. Even if the ancient wizards once established prosperity and glory from here, the real loss is at best psychological. I have regrets..."

"But it all started with me, and in order to maximize the effectiveness, I even gave some of the characteristics of the wormwood to this mold-loving fungus, making them more dangerous and difficult to control..."

"But from this, the entire plane will be grateful for your efforts. If the Sith tribe is completely expelled, no matter whether it is the warcraft on the surface or the creatures under the black abyss, they will all be saved because of your efforts. Be kind to humans, and in that case the time for human wizards to restore prosperity will be greatly shortened!"

The kind explanation made Raymond feel a little better. After a little boost of spirit, he increased his speed. Under the guidance of Talister, he quickly arrived at the mountain range where the Elder Council was located.

It's just that the lush forests here have disappeared in Talister's memory.

It seems that the mountains that have experienced tragic wars are full of collapsed peaks and exposed broken rocks. The mountains that have lost their vegetation coverage have become barren, and even the road that winds between the mountains leading to the high mountains. The river in the land of the tower has also changed its color due to the pollution of the lower reaches, causing mycophilic bacteria to flow upstream, filling the air with a slightly sour smell.

Talister, who led everyone here, relaxed his tense expression after releasing some kind of exploration spell, and muttered to the old dean Seurat before starting the arrangement. "It should not have been captured, but there must have been a violent conflict here, which caused the entrance to be hidden deeper..."

Hearing this, the one-eyed sandman Shaliman who came close to Raymond at some point, with a light shining in his one eye, quietly transmitted the message to Raymond. "Sir, can you take this opportunity to take out the light of sand that my master said was left in the Elder Council..." (To be continued ~^~)
