Zenas accepted Josiah's order to explore Aleslota.
He temporarily let Josiah take care of the little girl he adopted while he boarded the Merfolk's ship and headed to the coastline of Aleslota.
Zenas had lived in the human world for a long time and had learned the sentimentality of humans. When he boarded the Merfolk's ship, he actually bid farewell to his child and rushed to the battlefield with a sense of tragedy.
But this sense of tragedy was soon replaced by an instinctive sense of danger.
The Merfolk's ship docked at a dilapidated port in Aleslota.
This port town had obviously not been taken care of for many years. The surrounding area was full of traces of the invasion of the sea. Even the ground at the edge of the port was inhabited by creatures like conches and barnacles.
"Is this really our hometown?"
"Your grandfather was born in Osprey port. I also lived here when I was young … But … Sigh …"
Zenas heard the discussion of the Merfolk on the ship, but he did not ask them for details.
Josiah sent him to explore Aleslota for two purposes. The first was to confirm the safety of the port and the second was to build a portal connecting Berchemont and the port.
Zenas jumped off the ship alone and stepped on the barnacle-filled port floor.
The dark green flames of sin spread out from Zenas' body, and the parasitic creatures on the ground were instantly incinerated into ashes.
Zenas had just released his flames of sin and was about to walk deeper into the port. The ears on his forehead twitched as he heard a strange groan.
The groan came from the port building. A deformed human or mermaid slid out of the window.
The mermaid's body was occupied by a large number of barnacles just like the port floor. The back of her body had even turned into some kind of soft tissue like a slug.
"It seems like the Grey Fog caused the humans living here to become like this. Is it because they are close to the sea that they have become marine products?"
The soft voice of a Day Banshee sounded in Zenas' ears. This Day Banshee was controlled by Josiah.
"This place seems to be rich in marine products."
The Day Banshee floated in the air and looked left and right for a while. When the ship carrying the Merfolk neared the port,
The mutated creatures that resided in the shadows of the port all crawled out from the shadows and slowly moved towards the edge of the port.
"Your Highness Josiah, should we burn them all?"
Even after living in the human world for so many years, Zenas was still a merciless demon of sin. The 'all' here naturally included the creatures distorted by the Grey Fog.
"Should I try to purify it first?"
Josiah stared at the humanoid creatures that moved like slugs. They did not seem to have any intention of attacking, but the combination of humanoid slugs and barnacles could be the main characters in any horror movie or game.
The Sea Race people on the ship were obviously frightened by these creatures. They stood on the ship for a while and did not dare to come down. However, there were still some brave Sea Race people who took the initiative to get off the ship and returned to their homeland that had changed beyond recognition.
Among them was the representative of the Sea Race, Hemina, and the short tentacle wand that was helping to push her wheelchair.
The short tentacle wand pushed Hemina's wheelchair all the way to the back of the Day Banshee and the demon of sin.
"May I ask if you are Mr. Josiah?" Hemina asked.
"Eh, how did you recognize me?"
Josiah controlled the Day Banshee to turn around. His voice was also that of a gentle girl.
"The way you speak … Last time at the World Culture Exhibition, it left a deep impression on me," Hemina said.
Was this a compliment or a tease?
Josiah gave up on pursuing those unimportant matters. The short tentacle wand waved excitedly at Josiah as if it had seen its idol. It was the kind of idol that suddenly turned into a girl.
"Your Highness Josiah, are you planning to clean up the Sea Race that are infested by the Grey Fog?"
Beside Hemina was a woman with her eyes closed. From the way she was dressed, one could tell that she was not an ordinary person.
Josiah remembered that this woman was the queen of the Waterfront Kingdom. Unfortunately, the giant tortoise was not interested in humans. This queen was only in name, and Josiah could not remember her actual name.
"I plan to first try to purify the Grey Fog on their bodies. If I can't purify it, then I will have to transcend them," Josiah said.
"Transcend?" The queen of the Waterfront Kingdom repeated the word 'Josiah'.
"It means to send them on their way."
"This … Your Highness Josiah, do you have a way to save them?"
She was not like the giant tortoise that did not care about anything. She was probably the only leader of the Sea Race. If she could save this group of people, it would be a great help to the morale of the entire Sea Race.
"Zenas, first build a portal that connects to the back of Berchemont."
Josiah directly used his actions to explain his method of purification.
Zenas waved his hand, and soon a dark green portal appeared beside him.
"Catch."
Josiah picked up the Daytime Banshee's voice and said. Zenas quickly reacted and caught the thing that was thrown out from the other side of the portal.
This thing was, of course, the 'Leuder Scroll'.
"This is …"
She looked at the tied up Leuder. Coupled with the fact that the person who caught her was a sinful demon, this scene would be enough for a city lord to form an army to encircle and annihilate.
"Very useful Grey Fog Purifier. Alright, Zenas, I will teach you how to use it." Josiah controlled the Daytime Banshee to float in front of Zenas and said, "Don't think of her as a human or a goddess. She is a flashlight, or a glowing tree."
"Your Highness Josiah, I still don't understand how to do this." Zenas put the 'Leuder Scroll' on his shoulder and fell into a state of confusion.
Hemina and the queen were also wondering how a girl wrapped in a quilt could purify the Grey Fog around her.
"Point the front of the creature that is crawling towards you," Josiah directly gave a more specific instruction.
Zenas followed Josiah's instruction and pointed the front of the Leuder Scroll at the crawling slug.
"Let me think about where the activation button is."
Josiah controlled the Daytime Banshee to reach her translucent hand into Leuder's body.
Leuder and Josiah had also signed a contract, which allowed Josiah to use the Tree of Dark Elves inside Leuder's body.
"Found it." This was not Josiah's first time controlling the World Tree's power of faith. After controlling the World Tree of the High Elves, Josiah was already familiar with the process … to make the World Tree release its own power of faith.
This included … the direction of the release.
In the next second, under the astonished gazes of the two Seafolk, the front of the Leuder Scroll released a large amount of power of faith and directly hit the crawling slug.
The slug let out a pained wail, and the parts of its body that had been corroded by the Grey Fog visibly turned back into its human form.
"See, it's simple." The Daytime Banshee clapped her hands and puffed out her chest with her hands on her hips.
This also officially announced that the Leuder Scroll had turned into a Leuder Cannon …
"Zenas, fire a few more shots at the densely packed area." Josiah controlled the output of the power of faith and signaled for Zenas to change targets.
A large group of slug had gathered in a house in the distance, and they were crawling towards them in a row.
Under Josiah's command, Zenas aimed at the group of slug, and another light beam formed by the power of faith was fired from Leuder's forehead.
The sinful demon swept the Leuder Cannon on his shoulder in a straight line. This special effect was similar to a laser cannon leaving a deep ravine on the ground … except that the dissipation of the Grey Fog had replaced the effect of the explosion.
"It seems like they might be purified, but it will take some time."
Josiah stopped the output of the Leuder Cannon, and glanced at the group of slug that had been hit by the light beam of faith.
The deformed parts of their bodies began to recover as the gray fog faded. However, some of the unlucky ones lost their legs or arms, and some of the deformed ones died directly.
This was probably the best outcome for them.
"Your Excellency Josiah … on its shoulder …" The Queen of the Waterfront Kingdom was completely dumbfounded.
