《World of Experts 》Chapter 109: The Mist Became Denser
Advertisement
One had to say that, Shi Hao’s hundred men squad was indeed elite. Their equipment were all +2 tier 3 items. In addition, there were the buffs of Shi Hao’s Soul of the Warrior and Shadow Dragon Soul. Very quickly, the enemy troops were completely wiped out, not even leaving a pierce of armor. In this operation, a few player soldiers were injured by the stray arrows, but no one died.
Upon seeing this, Su Wu was not that impressed. This kind of matter was normal for Blowing Wind Left A Passion. However, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to compliment Blowing Wind Left A Passion and said: “Brother Wind is so amazing. Even before you take action, these clay chickens and pottery dogs already collapsed. If you personally take action, then I fear even that Qin Zheng also has to flee. Isn’t that right, Little Xiao?”
With his last sentence, he obviously wanted to strike while the iron was hot and make Su Xiao completely realize the strength of Blowing Wind Left A Passion. Su Wu often told Su Xiao, how could a man without strength be counted as a man? However, Su Xiao always refuted. Naturally, she would refute this time too.
Su Xiao’s eyes were cold as she said: “If Brother Hao also had such a material foundation and had such equipment, then how do you know that he wouldn’t do it even better?”
“You!” Su Wu immediately glared with anger. However, Blowing Wind Left A Passion clapped his hands and said: “Lady Xiao, well said! However, how do you know that these things of mine are not earned by me? Hahahaha! Let’s not talk about these things. It seems something is strange, let me so forward and take a look.”
Shi Hao slowly led Su Wu and Su Xiao forward. At this moment, the system had yet to recover some corpses. Shi Hao took a closer look. Sure enough! These people obviously weren’t Dragon Spring Mountain’s people. These two groups wiped out by Shi Hao were both player groups! The equipment on their body explained everything.

In fact, Shi Hao had already suspected this point when he saw the other party actually had many stray arrows flying. However, he was unable to understand it. Why those two player-groups insisted on attacking another player like this? Moreover, those two groups were obviously fighting fiercely before. What exactly was the reason?
Shi Hao remained puzzled even after much thoughts. Su Xiao had also noticed this point. But time waits for no one, and it was unknown where Qin Zheng had gone. Shi Hao still had to lead the team and move forward. He couldn’t say he didn’t want a billion copper coins and withdraw midway. However, the deeper he went, the stranger he felt!
Shi Hao thought. What’s going on here? Other than those two player-groups they met at the beginning, Shi Hao’s group didn’t run into anyone else. Moreover, there were no traps or ambushes along the way. If they advanced like this, then at most, a day later, they would definitely find that mysterious stronghold hidden in Dragon Spring Mountain. Could it be that those guys were idiots? Did that A grade historical NPC a brainless guy like Su Wu?
No! Absolutely impossible. But what kind of scheme was the other party playing? Until it was clear, Shi Hao couldn’t sit still and kept frowning.
Yes! After a long time, Shi Hao suddenly grasped a clue. Feng Xi! Yes, Feng Xi. Looking back at that incident, why did Feng Xi launch an attack on Shi Hao’s military camp without rhyme and reason? Was it purely because Feng Xi was stupid? Although Feng Xi was stupid, he was also a historical NPC. It was very unlikely that the system would make him a complete idiot. Then, Feng Xi must be affected by something, which caused him and his men to make the wrong judgments. He regarded Shi Hao as the rebels of Dragon Spring Mountain. Even when they were fighting at a close distance, he didn’t notice that Shi Hao was a player force via the equipment of Shi Hao’s troops.

Eh? Now that he thought about it, wasn’t the inexplicable behavior of those two groups also the same as Feng Xi? Infighting! Yes, their behavior and Feng Xi’s behavior were too similar. And the biggest things they had in common were, they had all entered Dragon Spring Mountain, and they had been wandering in the mist of Dragon Spring Mountain for a long time. Not good! There is a problem with this mist! It definitely has a problem.
Shi Hao immediately shouted: “Stop! Everyone, remain on standby.”
If someone looked carefully, then they would notice that Shi Hao was a bit flustered at this moment. Shi Hao was very clear. This was definitely not a trivial matter. Even if the other people attacked them from the front and the back, Shi Hao’s men could resist it without much pressure. But if his men lost control, then what should he do? Therefore, Shi Hao became tense. This was also the first time that Su Wu and Su Xiao had seen Blowing Wind Left A Passion so flustered since they met him.
Su Xiao stepped forward and asked: “Could it be that there was a problem with those two groups? Why are you like this? This is not like your usual style.”
Su Wu also stepped forward and asked: “Yes! Brother Wind, what’s wrong?”
Shi Hao didn’t reply immediately. After a long silence, he said: “Something came up, I’ll go offline first. Wait for me, I’ll return immediately.” After speaking, Shi Hao suddenly disappeared in front of Su Wu and Su Xiao.
Not long after, Shi Hao suddenly appeared again at the same place where he had disappeared before. At this moment, there was confidence in his eyes. Without a doubt, Shi Hao had already found a solution to this problem.
Shi Hao shouted: “All hands, set out, march towards the place with the densest mist…” In this fashion, Shi Hao’s group continued to advance forward. Su Wu and Su Xiao didn’t notice any abnormality.
Meanwhile, in a hidden location of Dragon Spring Mountain, a person dressed in a yellow robe suddenly frowned. Upon a closer look, there was a white-robed person beside that yellow-robed person.
The white-robed person asked: “What’s wrong? Did something happen…”
The yellow-robed person nodded and said: “It seems that someone has noticed my formation and is rapidly moving towards the formation core. At this speed, I’m afraid they will find the formation core soon! Although my formation can make people gradually have hallucinations, this person’s group hasn’t been here for long. We can only hope that those people who had already fallen in the illusion formation will earn us some time.”
The white-robed person smiled and said: “No matter! Even if those people are unable to earn some time, I will not let other people destroy your formation core. I’ll go and return immediately.” The white-robed person pulled out his sword and walked away.
However, not long after the white-robed person left, that yellow-robed person sighed meaningfully, and he looked very anxious. No one knew what that yellow-robed person was anxious about. Merely, one seemed to vaguely hear that yellow-robed man muttering to himself: “Brother Wu, ah, Brother Wu. Perhaps, that person is our true savior. I guess your sword cannot hurt him. There is no need to go to obstruct him…”
Merely, this yellow-robed man was a bit too late to say it. That white-robed man couldn’t hear him. That white-robed man had already arrived at this formation’s core.
At this moment, in the depths of the dense mist, the mist was very dense with blood light…

Nor from the Crust, the mysterious substance that covered the same planets and held the resources they all fought for. No, the freedom from being oppressed by those with more power and to finally decide where to go and where to set down roots and call home.

I only recommend it for the fans who are not faint of heart. This work will contain swears, violence and occasional sexual dialogue. With that fair warning done, I plan to constantly edit previous chapters as I go back to them, so they are all subject to change over time. Most of the events will remain the same but as I get more time to write I'd like to add details that I couldn't add while constrained for time. Thank you for taking the time to check out Monolith!
