Lin Yun was looking left and right, referring to the layout of the Black Tower and the Cloud Fort and quickly discovering many flaws of the Flame Demon Fort. In contrast, a few of the flaws of the Flame Demon Fort could be exploited and might be fatal during an attack.
Lin Yun was lost in thought when a hoarse voice echoed in his ears.
"Oh, isn't this Mafa Merlin of the Merlin Family? What, you also came to the Storm Fort? Is there no one from the Merlin Family? "
Lin Yun frowned and turned to look. He saw a pale-skinned man in his thirties sneering.
Lin Yun ignored that man in a luxurious robe and kept observing the Storm Fort.
Lin Yun's actions made Kans Charlotte extremely angry.
'That damned guy actually let me see Mafa Merlin here. I hadn't expected him to run so fast, actually running to the Raging Flame Plane. An abandoned child of the Merlin Family dares to offend our Charlotte Family? I'm talking to that damned guy, but he actually ignores me.'
Kans Charlotte's expression turned cold. He had been traveling before, and when he returned to the Charlotte Family, he vaguely heard that a guy named Mafa Merlin of the Merlin Family dared to oppose them. Moreover, they suffered a loss, and some members of the Family were killed by Mafa Merlin.
But Kans Charlotte wasn't very clear about the specifics. He only remembered that person and looked at his portrait. At the time, he didn't care. He was only a High Mage. If he saw him, he would just get rid of him.
In any case, how could the Merlin Family start a war with the Charlotte Family without any evidence? The Merlin Family had shown signs of rising again in the past few years, but the Charlotte Family wasn't something that could be bullied.
As a key member of the Family, Kans Charlotte simply looked down on a member of the Merlin Family, let alone a High Mage who had been coveted by the Merlin Family and barely returned to the Merlin Family.
But now, that damned guy actually dared to ignore him. This was simply intolerable. He had just been thinking that that damned guy had already advanced to the Archmage realm. Did he think that he could ignore Kans Charlotte just because he advanced to the Archmage realm?
"Mafa Merlin, do you think that you can be proud of advancing to the Archmage realm? I'm talking to you. Hmph, I was originally thinking of making you apologize to the Charlotte Family in front of everyone in the Storm Fort. But now, it looks like I need to teach you a lesson. "
Kans Charlotte raised his head, his pale face brimming with pride, as if he was forgiving Lin Yun.
Not far away, Whis and Zeuss had also noticed the situation. They looked at Kans Charlotte with gloating smiles.
"That kid seems to be a member of the Charlotte Family …"
"Yeah, the Charlotte Family has truly declined. Could it be that they can't even distinguish the most basic things? Who can be offended and who can't?"
"That guy is quite talented. He is already a 5th Rank Archmage in his thirties. He can be considered an outstanding member of the Charlotte Family, but unfortunately, his brain isn't that good."
"It seems that Lord Merlin had a conflict with the Charlotte Family before, but I don't know the specifics. Looking at Kans Charlotte's appearance, it shouldn't be a big conflict. Could it be that that guy wants to escalate the conflict?"
Whis and Zeuss sneered as they watched the show. In any case, the Charlotte Family didn't have a close relationship with them. Making Lord Merlin unhappy for that guy wasn't worth it.
Kans Charlotte stood on the side with a few people, a smile that wasn't a smile on his face as he looked at Lin Yun.
'He is only a dispensable outsider of the Merlin Family, how could he dare to offend our Charlotte Family? There are so many people here today, as long as he dares to contradict me, I'll have an excuse. At that time, the Merlin Family definitely wouldn't offend us because of him. Instead, they'd make him apologize to our Charlotte Family.
'It's best to make a big commotion. That way, we'll have an excuse to make things difficult for the Merlin Family. I heard that the Merlin Family's recent gains were pretty good. Not only did they control a few forts, but they even had a share of the resources of the Horn of Fertility.' Damnit, our Merlin Family is so weak in the Raging Flame Plane, yet they actually have the richest resources in the Horn of Fertility. '
Kans Charlotte raised his head, waiting for Lin Yun to keep apologizing with a pale expression. That way, he would be able to demand an exorbitant price and get a huge slice of the cake.
But Lin Yun didn't even glance at him. His eyes kept observing the Storm Fort, and the few people next to Lin Yun also didn't pay attention to Kans Charlotte.
Disdain could be seen on Xiuban's face as he looked at Kans Charlotte's thin body and pale complexion. He then looked at Carnage in his hand and estimated that he wouldn't even be able to use his strength before that thin guy was killed.
Kans Charlotte's expression slowly became gloomy as he fiercely glared at Lin Yun. His expression became more and more unsightly until flames started burning in his eyes.
'That guy, how could he dare to treat me like this? He dares to directly ignore me, ignore our Charlotte Family? '
For a long time, no one on Lin Yun's side paid attention to Kans Charlotte. Lin Yun had more or less finished observing the Storm Fort's layout.
Just as Kans Charlotte was about to say something, Lin Yun suddenly remembered that there was someone next to him.
"Eh? Who are you? Do you have something to say? "
A proud expression appeared in Kans Charlotte's eyes. 'Damned guy, you finally couldn't bear it? Keep pretending, keep pretending! Seeing that I was about to get angry, you immediately changed your attitude. '
"I'm Kans Charlotte, the Charlotte Family's …"
Kans Charlotte raised his head and only said a few words before Lin Yun seemed to recall something.
"Ah, sorry, I have something to say …"
After saying that, Lin Yun left Kans Charlotte and walked towards Weiss, who wasn't far away.
"Sir Weiss, I have something to ask you. I don't know if it's convenient for you to say it."
Weiss had a warm smile on his face.
"Sir Mafa, you are too polite. You can ask whatever you want to ask. As long as it isn't an important secret of the Black Tower, it's not inconvenient."
Lin Yun smiled and pointed outside the Storm Fort.
"When I came in, I discovered a strange valley not far from the Storm Fort. It was shrouded in black mist …"
Weiss had a flash of understanding and chuckled.
"Haha, I knew Sir Mafa would definitely ask about this. A powerful Artisan like Sir Mafa would definitely want to understand something strange. There's nothing inconvenient about that. That valley is called the Poison Mist Valley. No one knows how old that valley has been. In any case, that valley already existed when we came to the Raging Flame Plane.
"At the beginning, we also investigated the Poison Mist Valley and discovered that the black mist is poisonous. It contains highly toxic poison and is very corrosive. Ordinary people can't go in at all. Once they go in, they will die.
"At first, we also lost a lot of manpower, but the Storm Fort's geographical location was too important. We couldn't casually give it up, so the Cloud Tower and our Black Tower joined hands and dispatched two 8th Rank Archmages.
"But these two experienced 8th Rank Archmages couldn't clearly investigate inside. Not only did they gain nothing, but they were also corroded by the poisonous mist. They decisively gave up and escaped, almost dying. Afterwards, no one paid attention to that Poison Mist Valley.
"Moreover, that Poison Mist Valley hadn't changed in so many years, so it didn't affect anything.
"Sir Mafa, could it be that you want to investigate that Poison Mist Valley? "I advise you not to go. We already investigated it, and there is nothing valuable inside. Moreover, it is very dangerous. That poison's corrosive properties are very high. As long as you don't go in, there won't be any danger."
Lin Yun nodded, but he didn't say whether to go or not.
"Okay, thank you Sir Weiss for telling me this."
When Weiss said that the black mist was poisonous, Lin Yun suddenly felt enlightened. He now understood why he had felt so strange before.
It wasn't just because there was such a strange valley next to the Storm Fort, it was also because he felt a sense of déjà vu towards that black mist.
Lin Yun said a few words to Weiss before leading his people to settle down.
In the distance, Kans Charlotte was gnashing his teeth as he fiercely glared at Lin Yun's back. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
He didn't dare to interrupt Mafa Merlin and Weiss' conversation. Now that Mafa Merlin had left, how could he cause trouble for Mafa Merlin while Sir Weiss was watching? Wouldn't that be disrespecting Sir Weiss?
'Damned b * stard, don't think I didn't see through your little trick. You actually asked Sir Weiss to help you escape. Don't think of escaping so easily.'
Kans Charlotte left in a huff …
At night, Lin Yun led Xiuban, Reina, and Anderfa to quietly leave the Storm Fort and reach the entrance of the Poison Mist Valley.
They looked at the calmly drifting mist that seemed to be blocked by a layer of invisible obstruction. One step away from the Poison Mist Valley was a completely different environment.
After raising his shield, Lin Yun took the lead and entered the Poison Mist Valley, followed by Xiuban and Reina.
Lin Yun frowned when he didn't feel any obstruction after entering the Poison Mist Valley. This was clearly abnormal. Even if the Poison Mist didn't drift away, it was impossible for it to be completely gone within one step.
Clearly, something or a special environment had turned this Poison Mist Valley into an independent small world. As far as the eye could see, the surroundings were filled with black mist, but it looked completely different from the outside.
