Chapter 78 78. Care From the Boss

"Who are the Misty Cultists?"

Kota repeated An Le's question, but his eyes were very deep.

In the end, he shook his head and did not give a positive response: "Now is not the time to think about such things."

"That's not important anymore. Destroying the [Fog Core] is our immediate goal."

An Le nodded, as if she didn't want to pursue further: "Yes!"

Pushing open the door of the apartment, a group of people held flashlights and walked into the deep darkness.

——Due to the influence of the fog, all the electrical appliances in the apartment seemed to be destroyed, and the lights, bugs, and monitors all failed to work.

Naturally.

As they entered, under the light of the flashlight, the white mist, like a living creature, attached to their body surface and licked people's bodies.

Fortunately, An Le and the others had already put on special uniforms.

——This uniform was originally designed to deal with this situation.

——Not only did they wrap their bodies tightly, but according to Kota, a certain amount of "anti-supernatural substance" was added to it, and a special manufacturing process was adopted to prevent the mist from invading, but it would not affect them The display of its own extraordinary power.

Coupled with the helmet, it is no exaggeration to say that it is fully armed.

But even so, the team members still instinctively felt uncomfortable the moment they entered the white mist.

This is not only the discomfort that acts on the body, but also comes from the soul, from the biological instinct.

[The "mist" believed by the Misty Sect is essentially lost, unknowable, and chaotic. 】

[The meaning of the birth of that kind of fog is to return all orderly and living things to a lost state, so there is also a saying that the full name of the fog is "lost fog."]

An Le recalled the knowledge he read in that book.

Oh no, it's not so much "memory", it's better to say that they popped out at the right time, like bubbles surfacing.

[Intelligent creatures with rational existence, such as human beings, will instinctively feel uncomfortable when they are in the fog. 】

[This is because the two are engaged in an original and essential confrontation-lostness and rationality that follow the rules cannot coexist. 】

[And the longer you stay in the mist, the more severely you will be affected. 】

[It’s just that basically, the fog that comes from the call of the Misty Cultists, compared to those in the “beyond the sky” and the “land of silence”, is just a lot of loss and dilution. According to rumors, even Even a C-level transcendent can't last a second under the high concentration of fog. 】

"Everyone, get ready, I'm going to activate my ability."

At this moment, Fumino Asuka spoke.

The air seemed to vibrate slightly, and an invisible thread passed through the fog and the uniform, connecting them.

In an instant, An Le felt that the field of vision expanded several times, from his single perspective to a wide angle.

This is the effect achieved by Fumino Asuka's extraordinary ability - vision sharing!

This ability, in normal times, may seem unremarkable.

But in such an environment where the surroundings are pitch black, covered by white mist, visibility is reduced, and danger may appear at any time, it can play a miraculous effect.

This is one of the reasons why Asuka insisted on following.

In An Le's field of vision, the scene in the dark apartment is still its original appearance.

The hall on the first floor is still the hall, the walls are still the walls, the floor is still the floor, just

The sense of distance between them has undergone some subtle changes?

To use a simple analogy, two vases were only five meters apart, but now, in Anle's eyes, they seem to be separated by more than ten meters.

In this white mist, the space is like elastic rubber, being stretched and squeezed to varying degrees.

Even if he hadn't read the "Mist Sect" miscellaneous talk, Guangta had explained this to An Le and the others before entering the door.

An Le also tried to use the power of shadow.

Just as Kota had told him in advance, the surrounding darkness should be Anle's home field, but it was difficult for him to sneak into the sea of ​​shadows normally.

However, it is not impossible to invoke the power of shadows at all.

Take an inappropriate analogy.

If the shadows outside the apartment are connected to a vast ocean of shadows;

Then in the white mist, there is only a shallow stream left in the shadow. Even if it can still dive, it can only submerge half of the body at most, and the connection with the shadow is also weakened.

'This mist is really weird. '

But to be honest, An Le didn't feel uncomfortable.

It was similar to the white mist erupting from Eric's body when he first met Kota in the alley last time. Walking in this level of mist had little effect on him.

On the other hand, Guangtai and the others all showed uncomfortable expressions to varying degrees.

An Le didn't think it was his problem, but silently commented: 'Your ability to bear is not very good. '

'It still needs to be strengthened. '

*****

It took about five or six minutes.

A group of people finally passed through the hall on the first floor and came to the stairs of the apartment.

It's not that they are stagnant, but because the distance from the door to the stairs is extremely far away in the fog, and it has been stretched to several times its original size.

The only thing that can be called lucky is that the team members did not encounter the enemy's attack.

【The mists that come to this world are all called from the "Land of Silence", so in the process of transmitting the mists, there is a certain possibility that they will engulf the existence there. 】

[Usually, because the creatures living in the "Land of Silence" are too powerful, the probability of transporting a whole one is not high, but cases of transporting their cells or certain characteristics happen from time to time. 】

This piece of knowledge does not come from "Miscellaneous Talks on the Misty Cult", but another "Case Analysis on Thirteen Actions of Misty Cultists" that contains relatively little taboo knowledge.

Compared with the former who will talk about various aspects, the latter focuses on the deeds of the believers, using this to summarize their laws of action, and also draws some conclusions - because its name is too long, it will be called "Case Analysis" later.

Walking up the stairs, there was silence all around, only the footsteps of his companions could be heard.

If you listen carefully, you can hear one or two particularly strong heartbeats.

Even though Kota has basically ruled out the suspicion of the widow on the second floor, rescuing ordinary citizens can be counted as one of their goals.

Just coming to the door, the team members were surprised to find out.

The widow's door was ajar.

As if waiting for their arrival?

Guangtai was about to open the door and enter, but An Le took the initiative to say, "Let me come."

Others may not know it, but An Le, the boss, is very aware of the current situation of employee number two.

After losing the power of Hui, Kota's strength has dropped significantly. It is hard to say whether there is a D-level now, even if there are two or three extraordinary relics as cards to deal with emergencies.

But at the moment, it is still easy to be surprised.

Guangtai's family knew about his family affairs and the current situation, so he didn't insist and cast a grateful look at Anle.

'I haven't drained your surplus value yet, so I can't die so easily. '

‘At the very least, you have to turn that 50-point initial investment into a 500-point return! '

With this in mind, An Le slowly opened the door.

Thanks to "Worriless Sword", " # 99" and "Seven Nights and Seven Leafs" for the reward of 100 coins! Thank you so much!
