1867 Setting off
“Alright. I’ve already set up a barrier magic array at the periphery of the cave before I arrived. With the holy protection magic array, we’ll be protected for at least 24 hours even if the pollution erupts. That’ll give us enough time to react.”
“We’ll act immediately after the holy magic array is completed.”
Lei Yu made a prompt decision and announced, “We must take down the base of the Mundt Gang immediately in case any accidents happen!”
“Understood!”
The officers of the Federation immediately gave orders to prepare for battle.
Ten minutes later, the team gathered at the entrance of the Mundt Gang’s encampment.
Due to the dangerous pollution in the base, Lei Yu arranged for Zhou Chen and most of his subordinates to guard the periphery of the base to reduce the possibility of the spread of pollution.
Lei Yu personally led his team, the Holy Court, and a small number of soldiers from the military department to investigate the interior of the Mundt Gang.
Seeing that the team was about to set off, Zhou Chen walked to Lei Yu’s side and asked in a low voice, “The leaders of the Mundt Gang, Meng Ruhui and Yin Mo, have been detained by us. They have just woken up. Should we ask them about the situation in their base?”
“They’ve already been polluted by the demonic seed. We can’t get anything out of them. There’s no need to waste time on them.”
Lei Yu waved his hand and looked at Autolia, saying, “This trip is unusually dangerous. The Holy Light has a great restraint on pollution. Your Holy Court will take the lead, and we will assist. The situation is urgent, Autolia, you cannot decline.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Autolia nodded slightly and raised the holy scepter in her hand. A golden light shone from the holy scepter and dispersed the black fog in the surrounding area.
“Let’s go.”
The Federation team slowly advanced toward the interior of the base.
At this moment, Meng Ruhui and Yin Mo, who were imprisoned in the temporary camp, had just woken up.
Looking at the polluted air that was spreading in the depths of the Mundt Gang’s base, Yin Mo’s expression darkened, and he even revealed a hint of despair.
“Big Brother, it’s the pollution. The contamination has already leaked out. The seal trap we left in the holy land has probably been triggered.”
“Yes.”
Yin Mo pursed his lips and said in a self-deprecating tone, “Aktu, that kid, is still so disobedient.”
“You can’t blame him. Unfortunately, I didn’t expect the Holy Court to pay so much attention to the black fog. They came so quickly that this operation was a complete failure.”
Meng Ruhui sighed in his heart.
He had miscalculated.
Originally, the black fog hiding in the holy land was his last bargaining chip to negotiate with the Federation.
However, he never expected that the Federation would not give them this chance at all. They did not even meet them. After realizing that things were not going well, they immediately took the initiative to attack.
The Federation was extremely decisive in handling this matter.
“Big Brother, do you think we still have the ability to turn the tables?”
Meng Ruhui smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I’m afraid it’ll be difficult.”
“Big Brother, Aktu has always been very obedient to us. He would never enter the holy land without any reason. I think he might have been instigated by that kid Fang Heng. That kid’s background is a bit strange.”
“Indeed. What do you want to say?”
“The seal outside the game rift!”
Yin Mo had not given up yet. He said in a deep voice, “If Fang Heng and Aktu entered the holy land together, they would naturally discover the problem with the seal. Fang Heng is very familiar with seals. What if they have the ability to break the seal? We might still have a chance?”
“It’s no use.”
Meng Ruhui had thought about everything. He couldn’t think of anything that could turn the tables.
“For the past two years, I’ve been trying to find a way to break the seal on the outer layer of the game rift. Unfortunately, the seal left behind by the Holy Court is too strong. It has a terrifying restraining effect on the black fog, so I haven’t been able to find a way.”
Yin Mo smiled bitterly as well.
“That’s right. We’ve searched all the people who are proficient in magic array…”
This was the logic.
However, he was not willing to fail like this.
Yin Mo looked up into the distance again, hoping for a miracle.
“Perhaps…”
Meng Ruhui’s rationality told him that there was no chance for him to turn the tables around. However, he still could not help but follow Yin Mo’s lead and asked, “Perhaps what?”
“It might be an opportunity for the people of the Holy Court to enter the sacred land. What if the demonic seed sealed in the game rift is stimulated by the holy power and escapes from the rift?”
Meng Ruhui smiled bitterly.
It was impossible.
The stimulation of the external holy seal was no less than that of Oracle Autolia. After so many years, it would have been triggered at that time. Why would it wait until now?
Yin Mo knew that he was probably daydreaming, but when he was about to die, his mind was filled with messy thoughts.
“Big Brother, I…”
Eh?
As Yin Mo spoke, he noticed something from the corner of his eye. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the encampment in the distance. His eyes were filled with astonishment.
“Big Brother, this…”
Meng Ruhui’s gaze was already focused on the black fog.
His eyes were also filled with astonishment.
Thick fog!
It was spreading outwards!
This abnormal spread…
Could it be caused by that thing sealed in the game rift?
Was it really triggered?
The two of them turned to look at each other at the same time.
The demonic seed!
…
Deep in the base of the Mundt Gang, many players from the forces of the City of Darkness gathered at the entrance of the collapsed sacred land.
The collapse of the passage had caused the morale of the players to collapse.
At the last moment, under the immense pressure from the Federation, everyone chose to fight with their backs to the wall!
Of course, it was impossible for them to rush out and fight the Federation to their deaths.
At this moment, everyone was digging around the collapsed entrance of the holy land. From time to time, they would carefully observe the two people beside them from the corner of their eyes.
Fana and Gu Qingzhu.
These two women who came out of nowhere were too terrifying!
The explosion in the sacred land had caused the passage to collapse, and the inside of the Mundt Gang was in chaos. The leaders of the remaining gangs in the City of Darkness were arguing with the people of the Mundt Gang, and they almost fought with each other.
At the critical moment, Gu Qingzhu made a move and easily killed two syndicate leaders who were causing trouble, shocking the players.
Then, under Gu Qingzhu’s cold death threat, the players calmed down.
Fana led the players to believe that there was something inside the sacred land that could help them turn the tables, so she desperately dug out the collapsed holy land passage, hoping to grab onto the last straw.
As they dug deeper, thick black fog leaked out from the cracks of the collapsed rocks.
“Faster! The Federation has previously barged in!”
“Bring some people to stall them for a while more!”
“Dammit, why don’t you send your people to die?”
Without a leader, the leaders of the remaining forces in the City of Darkness were giving orders. The entire headquarters was in chaos.
Gu Qingzhu had only watched coldly from the side from the beginning to the end.
“Keep your voices down!”
Suddenly, Gu Qingzhu gave a cry and jumped down from the rock that she was standing on. She stared at the rock where the black fog was leaking and shouted, “The aura leaking out is very abnormal. Hurry up and dig! They’re coming out soon!”
