God's eyes cannot be deceived by illusions, but not everyone's eyes are so powerful.

In fact, the fact that illusion exists as a separate school of thought shows that people are not afraid of you knowing that it is fake, but want to make you unable to tell which one is real.

What everyone encountered was most likely some natural magical effects. The reasons for their formation are varied and it is difficult to generalize.

But one thing is certain, half an hour after we got back on the road, everyone had a strong urge to go home.

Alyssa used the words "We're almost there" and "Maybe we can find more treasures" to convince herself and others. After all, even though she knew it was fake, it was still very difficult to feel the bugs in her protective suit.

But there are also some that are completely unaffected.

One of them is Sista, a two-headed sea serpent that does not feel uncomfortable at all and even feels very happy.

The Sista's habitat covers a wide range, from the deep sea to muddy poison pools. It can survive in any of them. It doesn't care whether it is salt water or fresh water. For it, it's no different from going home.

The others are Benben and Sanafia.

The former is a golem, immune to all mental influences, while the latter is a replica of an ancient elf, with strong resistance to any mental spells or spell-like abilities.

But the others were all mortals, and soon after being tortured again and again, they began to consider whether or not to return.

Alyssa was actually a little hesitant. At worst, we could think of another way to go around. It would be too reckless to go straight through so bravely.

However, before everyone could come to any conclusion, something pushed them.

A gurgling sound of bubbles began to appear around. Since everyone was wearing a mask, no one heard the subtle sound. It was not until they noticed that Sista had stopped that everyone realized that there was something unusual around them.

Along with the appearance of bubbles, a large amount of water stains emerged from under the nearby black soil, as if a fountain was about to erupt.

But soon they discovered that this situation was not unique.

Finally, they heard a loud bang, so loud that they could hear it clearly even through their masks.

At the same time, disgusting black water suddenly erupted around them, and along with the liquid, some human-shaped creatures crawled out from it.

It was barely recognizable as a human, but the entire body was swollen and blue. Fortunately, everyone was wearing masks, otherwise they would have been suffocated by the stench of decay.

As they crawled out, horrible groans and the stench of rotting flesh began to spread around, and they limped towards the crowd.

"Free Fire!"

Drowned zombies mainly refer to a type of undead creature formed by the bodies of drowned people soaking in water for a long time. They are slightly higher level than ordinary zombies, and the difficulty in dealing with them is that they have too much juice.

Often when you chop something with a knife, regardless of whether you can kill it or not, you will definitely be sprayed with foul-smelling black corpse fluid. This stuff is poisonous and can spread plague, and it is extremely disgusting.

But when I met Alyssa and the others, I could only say...

These guys can save some money on cremation.

Energy weapons can easily knock down zombies. Their rotten and swollen flesh cannot resist the attack of energy weapons. Although there is too much juice on their bodies to be ignited immediately, it is very difficult to get close to them.

"Magic Flame Thrower, come up!"

Before the zombies could get up, soldiers carrying flamethrowers immediately turned on the valves at them, letting the flames purify everything!

These guys were not a problem for Alyssa and the others, but they caused a great psychological trauma. The clean and residue-free magic flame throwers quickly turned the group of zombies that fell to the ground into ashes, and the high temperature even dispersed a lot of the cold mist around them.

At about the same time as everyone was dealing with the zombies, the dispersing cold mist allowed everyone to see that not far away from them, there was a pile of huge granite boulders, which must have rolled into the reed-covered swamp a long time ago.

Obvious traces of artificial repairs can be seen on the top of the huge stone. Two symmetrical stone pillars stand high up, which should have been a stone arch.

The carving technique was rather crude, and it was not done by a machine. Alyssa judged that it was hammered out bit by bit with a hammer and a chisel.

It is unlikely that the Glow Ion Yin Order would create something like this. It is most likely left behind by people who were brought here through the portal while living here.

Most of the corpses and zombies in the swamp came from this place.

Similarly, this also means that the group is not far away from the area where people are active.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Alyssa and her friends haven't encountered any truly hostile locals yet. At most, they encountered those deformed savages at the beginning, but it felt more like they had encountered a group of wild beasts.

And this time...

To be honest, it doesn't feel very good.

The flames purified the zombies, and the high temperature also dispersed the cold fog a little.

Everyone moved forward along the huge rolling granite rocks. After only a minute or two, even though there was no wind, the cold mist in front of them suddenly dispersed to the left and right as if it had life.

A narrow path led up to a barren ridge.

Extinguished stone braziers can be seen on both sides of the road. They were supposed to be burning and providing lighting, but now only a cold, charred mark remains.

The stone brazier led the way to the high fog. At a very high place, a huge and blurry building could be vaguely seen appearing in the fog. Alyssa could even look up and see a tower-like structure in the fog.

It's a castle, or a fortress or something.

To be honest, to be able to build something like this is definitely not the work of one or two people. There must be a lot of people who live here, or who have lived here before.

In fact, considering that there is a water source nearby and the swamp can provide rich nutrients suitable for plant growth, except that the fog is a bit too thick, it can be regarded as a habitable area in the planet fortress.

Everyone stood at the bottom of the slope, and Alyssa recalibrated the direction to confirm that the nearest high-energy reaction they were looking for was in the direction of the castle.

According to the signal, it is very close, so close that I am already sticking to the reaction area.

"Let's go up, and don't open fire unless we are clearly attacked."

Considering that there might be people in the area who could be communicated with, Alyssa ordered them to exercise restraint.

When we got here, we had already walked out of the swamp, and going up were all solid rocks and fine dirt.

If Sista walked in front, it might scare the locals, so it was sent back to the end of the team to cover the retreat. Lieutenant Dui was still leading the way with a few people, and everyone followed closely behind.

Going up the slope, when everyone was about 20 to 30 meters from the ground, Sanafia suddenly pulled Alyssa:

“Sister Alyssa, look, there are a lot of blue things appearing over there.”

Everyone looked back and saw that a large area of ​​blue-green light had indeed emerged in the swamp they had just walked through. They were blue spheres at first, but soon turned into human shapes.

A word suddenly popped up in everyone's mind.

ghost.
