Chapter 627: Meeting Fog Again at Winterfront (3)
Half a day later, the navigation system could no longer be used. Feng Qi put it back in his backpack.
For the rest of the journey, he could only advance by memory.
However, as the scenery was slightly different from what he remembered, it was difficult to distinguish the direction.
The compa.s.s was also affected, displaying noticeable errors due to the magnetic deviation in the polar region, rendering it unusable.
Hence, for the rest of the journey, Feng Qi slowed down.
During this period, he constantly corrected his position based on his senses and memories.
Ever since his mental power had increased, his memory had improved quite a bit. He could remember the iconic objects along the way.
For example, large rocks that were exposed to the snow.
After advancing non-stop for 28 hours, Feng Qi was still full of energy.
As for Mu Qing, she was not affected at all. This bit of stamina consumption was nothing to her.
On the other hand, Lu Yue was a little tired.
Lu Yue’s physique was not particularly strong. His strongest attack method was the Sword Force, which had nothing to do with physical strength.
However, he did not say anything along the way and followed closely. Sensing Lu Yue’s situation, Feng Qi chose to stop for the time being. The portable tent was put to use at this moment.
After setting up a portable tent in the nearby snow forest, he took out the compressed energy ointment and other food from his backpack.
The food tasted like wax.
However, the advantage was that it was easy to carry and could effectively replenish the energy consumed by the body and quickly recover stamina.
He was not in a hurry to head to the fog domain field.
After eating, Feng Qi chose to rest on the spot.
After returning to their tents to rest, Feng Qi closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The area near the domain field was the place where domain transcendent creatures wreaked havoc the most. Danger could appear at any time.
However, Feng Qi was not worried about this situation.
His sense of danger was instinctive. He could wake up at any time to deal with unexpected situations.
Furthermore, the three of them were not people ordinary domain creatures could challenge. Mu Qing was also guarding them.
No matter how many came, Mu Qing could easily crush them.
In an environment where the night was long and the day was short, their perception of time would weaken. After sleeping for more than to hours, they woke up one after another.
When Feng Qi walked out of the tent, he saw Mu Qing eating hardtack.
“Hungry?”
“A little, but I’ll be fine after eating some biscuits.” Mu Qing admitted frankly without feeling embarra.s.sed.
Mu Qing had long treated Feng Qi as her family.
In front of her family, there was no need to be too reserved.
At this moment, Lu Yue also came out of the tent. The fatigue in his eyes had disappeared.
“Let’s move out. We’re almost there.”
Then, the three of them began to reorganize themselves and continued to advance toward the fog domain field.
Finally, after half a day, they arrived at the area where the fog domain field was.
At the end of his line of sight, the domain light screen wrapped in thick fog stood there, connected to the sky.
“Follow according to the plan. Lu Yue, guard the outside. Mu Qing and I will go in to find Fog.”
Hearing his instructions, Mu Qing and Lu Yue immediately nodded.
Feng Qi’s plan was simple. He would show weakness first before being domineering.
Based on his understanding of Fog, if he launched a strong attack from the start, with Fog’s cautiousness, it would have reservations and not dare to appear rashly.
If Mu Qmg’s combat strength was too strong, Fog might even abandon the fog domain field and run away.
Letting Fog go was equivalent to burying a hidden danger for Star City and even human civilization.
Perhaps Fog, whose future had been changed, would not develop Flesh Sacrifice again. But with Fog’s ability, it would still set up other terrifying hidden dangers in the future.
Therefore, the exploration of the fog domain field had to be stable.
He would first tempt Fog to take the bait before killing it. He would not give it a chance to leave.
Lu Yue was the last line of defense, deployed to eliminate Fog if it managed to escape from the fog domain field.
After repeating the plan, Lu Yue hooked his finger gently. Immediately, Jian
Lan, who was behind him, let out a cry and floated beside him.
Unsheathing Jian Lan, a sharp sword aura circled Lu Yue.
Feng Qi and Mu Qing, who had taken off their skiing equipment, also walked towards the fog domain field.
When their bodies came into contact with the fog domain field barrier, they felt a slight resistance, before easily pa.s.sing through it.
As far as the eye could see, it was covered by thick fog.
No matter how strong his night vision was, he could not see the scene in front of him.
But Mu Qing was an exception.
Her gaze was like a torch, able to easily penetrate the materialized fog and see the scene in the distance.
“Ah Qi, there are many wandering ghosts in the fog,” Mu Qing reminded him.
“Our target is Fog. Don’t worry about the ghosts. They are all transformed from the souls of Fog’s dead clansmen.”
Apart from Fog’s clansmen, there were also many spiritual plants unique to the fog domain field.
As they advanced, they saw a blood-colored flower blooming in the fog. There was a faint blood mist lingering on the petals, emitting a rich fragrance.
Fog had introduced this blood-colored flower before.
There were two sources of food for the Fog Race in the domain world. One was weak races raised in captivity.
Just as humans raised livestock in captivity, the Fog Race had also captured a group of races, evaluating them based on meat quality, blood and Qi strength, and blood and Qi quality.
It was like humans letting livestock listen to soothing music to improve their mood and thus improve the quality of their meat.
The captured group of races raised by the Fog Race would also grow up in joy.
However, they would eventually become food for the Fog Race.
Another way to obtain blood and Qi was to eat the blood-colored flowers that covered the fog domain field. Eating this flower could allow one to obtain high-purity blood and Qi.
In the previous timeline, while working at the steelworks factory with Fog, Fog had often expressed its longing for the “blood orchids” in his hometown. He complained that the food humans ate was trash and that they might not even be willing to eat the blood food that was fed to them.
Amid the thick fog, many memories flashed through his mind.
In the previous timeline, Fog had turned into fog more than once to envelop him and carry him in flight or turn into fog to protect his safety.
But in this timeline, they were destined to be enemies.
After advancing a distance, Feng Qi suddenly stopped.
He felt the throbbing of his blood as if a mysterious power was stirring the
blood in his body and trying to control its circulation.
With such a familiar ability appearing, he knew that Fog was here.
At this moment, he had two options. The first was to transform into his Blood Source form and turn his blood into blood-colored energy to form a physical body. The second was to switch to his Skeletal form.
But he didn’t choose to do so.
If he were to fish out Fog, he had to make sacrifices.
He gave up struggling and let out a painful wail. The blood in his body flowed out through his pores and was sucked away by the mysterious power in the fog.
Looking at Feng Qi who was struggling in pain, Mu Qing was stunned for a moment. Then, she suddenly shouted.
“Ah Qi, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”
He was powerless to complain about Mu Qing’s melodramatic acting.
However, at this moment, hoa.r.s.e and sinister laughter and murmurs came from the black fog.
This voice seemed to have a magical power that constantly stirred the fear in
his heart. It could effectively reduce one’s combat strength.
However, the moment this voice sounded, Feng Qi and Mu Qing locked onto Fog’s location.
“I’m here, Friend!”
Mu Qing also raised her fist at this moment, and her body was instantly
enveloped by jade-colored light..
