Rogge became alert when the mist surged below. As soon as the bloody mouth appeared, he flew upwards and dodged.
That mouth was filled with layers of huge, sharp teeth, which looked very scary.
"Wow! You're the only one with a big mouth!" Ofina was very angry when she saw something trying to eat her, and threw a dozen magic core bombs down.
"Bang!" The big mouth closed, and the huge teeth collided with each other, making a tooth-breaking sound.
"Boom! Boom!" A dull explosion sounded from the unknown giant beast's mouth. The magic core bomb blasted a big hole in what seemed to be the throat, and the energy impact spurted out with pieces of flesh and blood.
"Oh!" The giant beast opened its mouth, screamed and retreated into the mist.
Rogge did not pursue, but carried Ofina back to the tree hole.
"Brother, that thing looks like a big shark! I injured it!" Ofina said excitedly, not knowing what fear was.
The giant beast left the mist for more than ten seconds, and Rogge saw its appearance clearly. Not only him, but also everyone on standby above saw it.
"Roger, how are you?" Filia asked with concern.
"It's okay." Rogge squeezed the goddess's hand, "Nana initially confirmed that the mist is non-toxic and harmless to the human body."
"That's right." Ofina took out the medicine bottle and uncorked it in front of everyone, "This is the sample I got. Look, it's so good."
The fine particles of mist and dust stayed very stable in the medicine bottle, remaining relatively still, with no sign of movement visible to the naked eye.
"This... is obviously not an ordinary mist." Madeline said.
"Yes, and what's going on with that big shark? Why does it appear in the fog?" Matilda asked.
The giant beast, which looks similar to a shark, has well-developed dorsal and side fins, and a streamlined body. These are all characteristics of creatures living in the water.
But when they first arrived at the giant tree in the deep pit, Rogge threw a stone into the mist to test, and it was definitely not water underneath.
So for the giant beast to look like a fish, it must be because the mist has some characteristics of water.
Rogge carefully recalled the appearance of the giant beast. It seemed to have no gills, and had many long tentacles on its head and tail.
In other words, the mist itself is breathable and will not affect breathing, and when the dust particles in the mist move, they will produce strong enough fluctuations for the giant beast to distinguish.
"Let's wait for Nana to study it." Rogge said.
Ofina's little assistant Elena is not here, so she is the only one who does everything, and no one else can help.
But the girl's hands and feet were extremely nimble. A large number of bottles and jars and various arcane devices soon filled a table. Although Rogge couldn't understand it, he always felt that it had a high-level beauty.
Ofina's fingers danced on the table, studying the characteristics of the mist.
Everyone calmed down to watch, and they all sighed that the girl's little head was really smart, but such a complicated thing could not trouble her at all.
Perhaps it was because the characteristics of the mist were so peculiar that Ofina spent a little longer studying it.
Twenty minutes later, as a flame burst out of the medicine bottle, the experiment ended.
"Nana, how are you?"
Ophina picked up the small notebook she had recorded casually, took out a pair of glasses without lenses from her spiritual ring, put them on, then tied her smooth goose-yellow hair into a ponytail, and then explained to everyone:
"The strange mist is composed of tiny particles visible to the naked eye and appears black and gray."
"The particles are inactive and remain extremely stable without external forces."
"Non-toxic, odorless and harmless to living organisms."
"The light transmittance is medium, the breathability is good, and it has no effect of blocking magical elements and energy."
“It’s not inherently flammable but it’s combustible and releases a lot of heat energy when it burns.”
"The particles contain a special kind of energy. After comparing it with the small white flower, it is determined to be the power of illusion."
"To sum up, it is speculated that the fog particles are..."
"The remains of this illusory sacred tree!"
Ofina put her hands on her hips and slightly raised her crystal clear chin, proudly admiring the shocked expressions on everyone's faces.
"Do you understand?" Ofina took off her glasses, let down her hair, and regained her lovely appearance.
Lunt shook his head and the others nodded.
"Just understand, brother, let's make arrangements."
In technical discussions, everyone habitually ignores Lunt. In fact, no matter what the discussion is, Lunt's opinion is not important.
People are stupid and their brains are stupid, that's how it is.
The big guy just needs to get beat up.
Rogge pinched his brows, planning his next action and getting an idea.
"I don't know how thick this fog is. If the bottom of the pit is completely covered by fog, it will be very difficult to move."
"The mist and dust are the remains of the sacred tree. It contains illusory power and is very stable, so the creatures in it will evolve into the form of fish."
"It is also known from their appearance that the fog has existed for a long time."
"Filia, the fog and dust are flammable, so be careful."
Filia nodded, "I know, in the mist I won't need the Yanyang family's martial arts."
"Nana and I were still some distance away from the fog just now. Nana just threw a potion bottle into the fog and attracted the giant beast. It can be seen that the perception of creatures in the fog is extremely sharp."
"So we don't have to hide our whereabouts after entering the fog. On the contrary, everyone should use their full momentum. I will also let Canxing send out dragon power to scare away the creatures as much as possible."
"But won't this attract powerful creatures?" Madeleine asked.
"Yes, but as long as we enter the mist, we cannot avoid fighting powerful creatures. Instead of avoiding them, it is better to actively ask for a fight."
"Hey, this doesn't seem like your style." Matilda tickled Roger's chin with her index finger to tease him.
"Ahem..." Rogge slapped away Matilda's mischievous hand, "I want to be more steady. If there is enough time, I will even try to blow away this fog."
"But if Xi Kong hasn't left yet, she still has her own agenda. The sooner we act, the better."
"Nana said that the fog and dust have medium light transmittance, so everyone's vision will definitely be blocked, so you need to make adjustments during the battle."
"By the way, here's this for you!" Ofina gave everyone a round ball the size of an apple.
Rogge curiously played with the ball that felt good in his hand. Suddenly he saw a button and asked, "Nana, what is this?"
However, someone had faster hands, and Lunt had already pressed the button.
"Ah!!" The ball gave off a strong light, and Lunt howled miserably, "My eyes!"
"Hahaha, teach you how to press randomly! If I give you a bomb, Linlin will become a widow!" Ofina mocked, raised her hand and released the blessing spell on Lunt.
An An stuck out her tongue and quietly moved her finger that was about to press the button.
"This is the luminous ball I made. When it enters the fog later, everyone can press the button to know each other's position."
"The little girl has so many tricks up her sleeves!" Matilda stretched out her hand to rub the girl's face.
Rogge couldn't help but sigh at Ophina's rich storage. It seemed that he had to take a time to carefully check out what weird things she had invented.
"Okay, everyone is ready to go. If the depth of the fog is limited, we will break out quickly, otherwise we will reach the bottom of the pit as soon as possible."
"Lunt, Madeleine, Matilda, Leiyin, starting with that."
"Me, Filia, An'an, Canxing, in the middle."
"Nana, Roya Farah, Winnie, Xuan Qing, the queen."
"Okay!" Ofina, who usually disagreed with Roya Farah, agreed very simply this time. She took the girl and jumped on Xuan Qing's back.
"Sister Winnie, please move quickly."
"Okay." Winnie showed a harmless smile and sat behind Ophina.
Three flying spirit beasts carried everyone close to the fog, and Rogge asked Ofina to throw a luminous ball down.
The luminous ball fell down for about two hundred meters and turned into a small dim light spot when the light suddenly disappeared.
But the last bit of light it emits is enough for the three spirit beasts and Rogge, who have excellent eyesight, to see clearly the surrounding situation.
A huge beast devoured it.
There was no point in waiting, Rogge made a gesture to Matilda, and everyone followed the agreement with full momentum.
Sure enough, there was a commotion in the mist, mist surged everywhere, and beasts roared continuously.
Lei Yin was not afraid at all and flew into the mist first, followed by Canxing and Xuanqing.
Descending to the position where the luminous ball disappeared just now, the figure of the giant beast has disappeared.
Thinking about it, the aura released by a Martial Saint, a Martial King, and three Spirit Kings is extraordinary. Canxing has even activated the power of the Star Dragon, and the giant beasts without any strength dare not approach at all.
The visibility in the fog is about one thousand meters, just like normal foggy weather. You can see some things clearly, but not much.
Under this kind of visibility, everyone can still react as long as they are not particularly powerful opponents who are good at speed.
The team continued to descend. The route Rogge chose was to go down close to the trunk of the Illusion God Tree, which ensured that there was a high probability that one side would not be attacked.
Along the way, Rogge saw many creatures in the mist, which were similar to what he had guessed. Almost all of them looked like fish, shrimps and crabs, with no birds or dragons at all.
Roger discovered two interesting creatures.
A kind of "little fish" disguised itself as tree bark and trembled close to the real bark under the influence of everyone's momentum.
A kind of "big fish" has a flower blooming on its head. The flower is actually an alienated form of the fish's fin.
This phenomenon in which an organism imitates another organism or other objects in the simulated environment to obtain benefits is called mimicry.
The existence of mimicry also proves that the fog environment is maintained for a long time.
This special environment gave birth to special creatures, like an unknown ocean, full of vitality.
The pit seemed to have no bottom. The lower it went, the darker the light became, and the small balls of light on everyone's bodies became more obvious.
An An, who was sitting behind Rogge, hugged Rogge's waist tightly. She was not taking advantage of the opportunity, but she was really afraid.
An An was originally very excited when she heard that she was going to go into the mist. But when they really came in, as the light gradually disappeared, the surrounding environment became more and more weird, and An An's excitement turned into nervousness and fear.
If it weren't for the clearly visible little spots of light on her teammates, she would have been able to wrap a pair of long legs around Rogge's waist.
Just like this, Rogge could clearly feel two soft masses of pressure on his back.
An'an's portion is not small.
Just as he was concentrating, Filia in front of him suddenly said: "Roger, something is coming."
As the light weakens, the visibility decreases. Rogge's eyesight advantage no longer exists, and his perception is not as good as that of Martial King-level Philia.
When Rogge heard this, he immediately prepared his bow and arrows for battle.
To the left of Canxing, the fog surged strongly.
An ugly and ferocious face appeared in front of everyone.
