Chapter 626: Chapter 375: Scaling the Summit of the Giant Peak (7.4K!)_3
```
Here...
there was also fog.
It was an extremely dense, indissoluble red fog.
The red fog was like clouds, enveloping the peak of Black Peak, and from a distance, it looked like a giant red hat placed atop a black pillar of the sky.
"The foul red fog!"
Mu Yuan had thought that atop this black giant peak, there might be some kind of a superb treasure land, or a Miracle Building with significant functions, which was why Fang of the Jackal Wolf stationed heavy troops at the foot of the mountain. However, he didn't expect it to be such an eerie place.
His brows furrowed.
To a Monster Overlord, such a place shrouded in red fog might be more beneficial than any so-called treasure land or Miracle Building.
His intuition told him that this place contained great misfortune and could likely lead to a major disaster. Discover worlds on m-v le-mpyr
Indeed, as Sario flew forward, bringing them closer to the land shrouded in red fog, the urgent prompt from heaven and earth began to sound in their ears.
「叮!」
「Prompt: Your hero 'Duo Lai' has discovered the Heart of Corruption under construction. Please clear it out as soon as possible, please clear it out as soon as possible, please clear it out as soon as possible.」
「Prompt:...」
「Prompt:...」
The prompt from heaven and earth seemed even more urgent than usual.
Mu Yuan's expression changed.
The red fog was so thick it was viscous, preventing him from seeing what was inside the fog, but he had heard of the term 'Heart of Corruption' before.
It was mentioned in the foundational information of the pioneering department.
After all, he was a reservist lord of the pioneering department, and previously he received some basic information from Liu Miumiu at the behest of the Lord of Han Yue City.
It was called basic, but it was only basic within the pioneering department. It included numerous pieces of intelligence that ordinary lords and high-rank professionals could not access.
One of them went like this:
「In the deepest parts of the wilderness lies the land shrouded in red fog. That is a playground for monsters, perpetually wrapped in indissoluble, dense red fog that blocks out the light of day, similar to the scenes during the Red Fog Disaster Moon period.
However, even during the Disaster Moon, the red fog floating between heaven and earth by the Tai Xuan Alliance is far less than one-tenth or one-twentieth of that which is in the deepest parts.」
「The land covered in red fog does not always remain unchanged; humans have transformed some of the Red Mist Land into ordinary wilderness where beings can live, but there are also some wilderness areas that have fallen to the invasion of the red fog.」
「The sign that a wilderness area has fallen is...」
Heart of Corruption!
Once the red fog covers the entire domain, living beings will completely lose their space to survive, and the territories of the Miracle Territory will also be eroded by the red fog. By then, high-order monsters and legendary monsters will continue to emerge from the depths of the wilderness, completely devouring the vitality of the entire domain.
This is an extinction-level disaster.
In fact, Natural Garden and Giant Stone Ridge probably escaped from some land shrouded in red fog a long time ago.
But...
"Why is there a Heart of Corruption here?"
"Fang of the Jackal Wolf is constructing the Heart of Corruption? That doesn't make sense."
It wasn't that Mu Yuan underestimated Fang of the Jackal Wolf, but rather, they simply didn't have the status or capability to construct something of the level of the Heart of Corruption.
Behind Fang of the Jackal Wolf, there must be a greater power!
Mu Yuan thought of the giant dragon monsters that appeared in the battle to defend Tianyuan City the day before yesterday.
His brows pinched together, deep in thought.
Duo Lai, after waiting for a while, couldn't help but prod Mu Yuan, "What should we do now?"
It gestured towards the thick red fog in the distance, asking whether to charge in or not.
"Charge!"
No matter the situation, he must eradicate the Heart of Corruption, otherwise Tianyuan City would completely lose its living space.
He was quite certain of it.
Once the Heart of Corruption is completed, the red fog will spread in all directions, overshadowing the skies and eroding the land. Not to mention the Tianyuan Territory, even the Han Yue Territory might not have the capacity to survive in such a region.
This Heart of Corruption has brought an almost ordained death, and it cannot be allowed to remain!
However, the place was truly sinister, even Duo Lai was somewhat afraid, and Sario also didn't brazenly say he would charge up.
They needed to be cautious.
The black giant peak occupied a special position, with natural enchantments and spatial fields on the outside, preventing him from using the Reconnaissance Sky Eye for observation.
The Sophia Raven returned to the stage.
Her body was surrounded by fluttering black feathers, constantly shaping into Created Black Crows. Among them, three crows had taken her a lot of effort to create and were noticeably fatter than the others.
These fatter crows did not have a significant improvement in reconnaissance capabilities; rather, they contained more abundant energy inside their bodies, making them more resistant to impact than ordinary crows.
This was the 'Black Crow·Sturdy Edition' that Sophia had slightly adjusted and developed based on the situation just now.
Dozens of black crows plunged into the red fog.
Sophia exclaimed with a "huh".
"What's wrong?" Mu Yuan asked.
Sophia said, "My crows weren't destroyed immediately, it seems there are no guards inside."
Mu Yuan asked, "No danger?"
Sophia said, "No, it's not that there's no danger. Indeed, at the moment, there don't seem to be any monsters inside, but the ubiquitous red fog is the danger. The red fog is eroding!"
Underneath the red fog, the feathers of each Created Black Crow slowly began to turn from black to red.
A sinister and vivid red.
And faintly, one by one, eyes started to form on the feathers, gradually becoming more terrifying.
Pop——
The link with the black crow broke.
Before the connection broke, Mu Yuan could see through the other surviving crows that the previously mentioned Crow No. 9 was still alive, or rather it had become "more alive". Before, it was merely a lifeless Created Black Crow, and now, it had become a black crow monster.
It had become corrupt.
Under the erosion of the red fog, it had transformed into a monster.
The whole process took no more than twenty to thirty seconds.
Pop pop pop pop pop——
One by one, the links with the Created Black Crows broke, and the three fatter crows only managed to hold out for about twenty seconds longer.
