After successfully arriving at their destination and having a good night's sleep, Meg was not in a hurry to wake up the mother and daughter who were still asleep. He changed into his chef's uniform and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
There were not many ingredients in the fridge, but they were quite complete.
Meg made a pot of congee with pork and century egg and fried dough sticks.
"How did we get underwater?" Irina held Amy's hand and walked to the kitchen door. She looked at Meg, who was scooping up the fried dough sticks, and asked in confusion.
"I saw a lot of fish. Father, are we having grilled fish for lunch today?" Amy asked with sparkling eyes.
"It's harder to be discovered underwater. We're already near the black fog." Meg first answered Irina's question, then looked at Amy and nodded. "If Amy wants to eat, then let's have grilled fish for lunch."
"Okay!" Amy nodded happily.
"Black fog." Irina walked to the side of the restaurant and looked out through the transparent wall. She soon noticed the surging black fog in the distance. Although it was hundreds of meters away, she could still feel the disgusting aura of death.
"Let's have breakfast first. After breakfast, we'll go and check out the situation. The black fog is larger than I expected. Besides, we need to know where we are now," Meg said to Irina.
"Okay." Irina nodded and brought Amy to wash up. Then, they ate the breakfast that Meg had made.
After breakfast, everyone went to the central control room. Meg canceled the takeover mode and manually drove the mobile restaurant slowly toward the black fog. He stopped 100 meters away.
After getting closer, the surging black fog became clearer. The black fog was as thick as black ink. Just looking at it made people feel a sense of frustration.
"Should I use the Holy Light to clear it?" Irina asked.
"Let me check it out first." Meg shook his head. His finger slid on the screen, and he called out the tripod drone. He clicked to launch it.
A small water droplet-shaped submarine was ejected, and steered toward the black fog silently. Soon, the big screen in the central control room showed the images sent back by the submarine. All kinds of fish could be seen clearly.
Ugly Duckling lay in front of the screen and tried to grab those fish with its fat claws and stuff them into its mouth.
"Is this your new pet?" Irina looked at the image in astonishment. This was the first time she had seen a magical beast that could transmit images back from such a long distance.
"Sort of." Meg nodded.... He did not know how to explain the existence of such advanced technology.
The image turned black as soon as the submarine entered the black fog. However, the camera mode was quickly changed to infrared mode. There were still all kinds of fish in the surging black fog.
However, there seemed to be some strange changes in their appearance and bones. They grew sharp teeth, and they were attacking and swallowing each other in the black fog. Meg saw a huge crayfish using its pincers to snap a conger eel. There were also many fish that attacked the small submarine. However, they were easily dodged by the accelerated submarine.
"These fish look so scary," Amy said fearfully as she curled up in Irina's arms.
"Could it be because of the black fog?" Irina looked at this scene with a grave expression. Those fish that were swallowing each other seemed to have lost their minds.
"That's most likely the case. It seems like the influence of the black fog is more serious than we thought." Mag also nodded with a grave expression. Right now, the black fog only had a radius of several hundred meters, and only a school of fish was affected. If the black fog expanded and engulfed some of the more powerful species, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The small submarine quickly reached the shore. A bamboo dragonfly-shaped propeller appeared on top of the water droplet. It silently rose into the air and activated the aerial photography mode.
The island was not large. It was an irregular circle with a diameter of less than a kilometer. The black fog had already shrouded the entire island and was spreading in all directions with the island as the center.
Through the infrared camera, they could see a group of monkeys on the island. Just like the school of fish at the bottom of the sea, the monkeys were also killing each other. Mutilated monkey corpses could be seen everywhere. Some of them were even three meters tall. After swallowing each other, these monkeys seemed to have evolved.
"Looks like this is an uninhabited island," Meg said softly. This was the only thing that made him feel relieved. He was ready to retrieve the drone.
"Father, look. There's a round fatty over there," Amy suddenly said as she pointed to the bottom right of the screen.
"This is?" Only a blurry round figure could be seen on the screen. Turning the camera and zooming in, there was indeed a big fatty kneeling in front of a stone statue in the center of the screen. Because it was too round, it looked like a round ball.
Only a rough outline of the stone statue could be seen in the thick black fog. It seemed to be a skeleton.
"With this body shape, it might be a demon from the Abyss Demon Clan," Irina said as she leaned forward slightly.
"Our current position is 350 kilometers west of the Abyss Island. It's still within the waters of the Abyss Island, so it's very likely that it's the abyssal demons." Mag nodded in agreement after glancing at the map.
Previously, when the Abyss Demon Clan and the Giant Dragon Clan were negotiating peace, he had received an Abyss Demon and had a deep impression of the big fatty riding a pig.
Moreover, the Abyss Demon Clan was also one of the masterminds in the ambush. Abyss Lord Alfreid was on Irina's kill list for this trip.
Initially, they thought that it was an uninhabited island. They did not expect that an Abyss Demon would be involved, causing a sudden change in the black fog clearing operation.
"He seems to be saying something. Perhaps we can find out what happened to Borg from him." Meg turned the drone's invisibility function to the maximum and slowly approached the voice.
With the cover of the trees, the drone quickly approached the Abyss Demon. A dream-like voice gradually became clearer.
"I … Alfreid … serve the master … power … offer my soul …" The drone stopped about ten meters away. They could see the meatball that was like a small mountain. The words he said intermittently shocked Meg and Irina.
"I didn't expect it to be Alfreid. Offering his soul in exchange for power. Is he making a deal with the devil?" Irina frowned.
"What's a deal with the devil?" Meg asked, puzzled.
"This is an ancient legend. Fallen creatures sell their souls to the devil in exchange for terrifying power. This is a deal with the devil," Irina said softly.
"I'm afraid this is not just a legend." Meg looked at Alfreid, whose body was gradually expanding, and said with a serious expression.
