"What the hell!"
Looking at the scene before them, everyone felt their scalps go numb.
They had never thought that in such a short period of time, the curse within the cursed land would explode out.
Moreover, it had happened in such a terrifying manner.
In just a short period of time, the power within the cursed land quickly rose, and the curse power within the cursed land became hundreds of times stronger.
Let alone seeing such a terrifying increase, they had never even heard of such a thing before.
At this moment, everyone present understood that the Cursed Land before them was obviously not ordinary. It was definitely a top-notch Cursed Land.
Otherwise, it would not have been so terrifying.
The result of the curse exploding out from the cursed land was naturally quite terrifying.
Within the cursed land, because of the holy item, they were not affected by the curse power and were able to survive.
However, even so, the city in the distance was not spared.
"Lil 'Ming!"
In that instant, many people's expressions fell.
These people in front of him were all cursed people who were transferred from the nearby mainland, and some were even officials.
It was impossible for people to live in this world without any attachments.
This was especially so for cursed people like them.
Therefore, more or less, they all had relatives in the city or nearby.
Chen Rou's expression completely fell.
Her little brother was also in the city.
Looking at the time, Chen Heng was most likely still in school.
"What the hell!"
Thinking to there, her expression became ashen and unsightly.
This incident was something that no one had expected.
Everyone, including the officials, had underestimated the horrors of the Cursed Land and made the wrong judgment.
According to the government officials' estimates, as long as the alliance's members could come, they would be able to deal with this cursed land.
However, judging from the current situation, even if the members of the coalition team rushed over, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths in the face of the current situation.
Moreover, they would be sent to their deaths themselves.
The scene before them was incredibly horrifying.
However, there was no way for them to escape.
"Let's go!"
Standing there, many thoughts flashed through Chen Rou's mind.
In the end, Chen Rou opened her eyes and her expression became resolute, "Let's go back!
"At this point, our mission has already failed. There's no point in staying here any longer."
"Let's go back."
"If we're lucky, we might be able to rush back to the city and help the people in the city migrate."
Then, she turned around and looked at the rest of the people beside her.
Facing Chen Rou's gaze, everyone nodded silently and did not refute.
It wasn't that he didn't have any other thoughts, but they had already lost all meaning at this moment.
After all, if they continued to stay at this place, they would only end up dead.
The only way to survive was to leave this place and return to the city outside.
As for whether they would leave through the city or stay in the city to help the others escape like Chen Rou said, that was a problem for later.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through their minds, but in the end, they nodded in unison.
In the outside world.
Along with the turmoil in the Cursed Lands, the outside world had also undergone some changes.
Following the eruption of the Curse Energy, the distance between the Cursed Lands and the city was getting closer and closer.
It was the same everywhere.
Because of this, it brought about a very obvious change.
An inexplicable hazy mist began to spread.
This fog came in a very strange manner. It enveloped the surrounding area and enveloped the entire region.
Different people had different reactions to this.
Some people's expressions greatly changed as they sensed danger. Others looked quite confused, not knowing what was going on.
Evidently, this scene was quite rare, and it was very rare to see such a thing.
However, most people still maintained their original path of life and did not change much.
After all, to most people, even though these abnormalities were worth paying attention to, their current lives were more important.
Evidently, most people did not know what they were going to face.
Ring, ring, ring …
A clear bell rang out.
Within a spacious classroom, a middle-aged teacher stood on a podium with a pointer in his hand, earnestly lecturing.
As the bell rang out, the class concluded.
The teacher paused for a moment before smiling and getting up to leave.
Following the teacher's departure, the students on the scene stood up one after another and streamed out.
They were either playing around, or with other companions, whispering to each other.
Compared to everyone else, Chen Heng seemed quite calm.
After the class ended, he silently took out a book from his bag and started to read.
Only when he heard some sounds from outside did he turn his attention elsewhere.
"Fog! Black fog! "
A series of shouts rang out at this moment.
Hearing these sounds, Chen Heng turned and looked out, and he could not help but frown.
In the outside world, waves of hazy black mist were rising, appearing one by one.
At first glance, it was exceptionally eye-catching and unique.
Compared to normal fog, this fog was not only strange, but it was also quite unique. As the sun shone on it, it did not show any signs of dissipating and instead became denser and denser, as if it was going to drown the entire city.
This unusual scene attracted everyone's attention.
"What a strange fog!"
In the surroundings, many people sighed in amazement. They felt that the scene before them was extremely strange.
Of course, in actuality, it was quite strange.
Of course, normal fog would not look like this.
The reason why it had become like this was because of something else.
Sitting on his seat and looking at this scene, Chen Heng frowned.
"Curse power?"
Sensing the power around him, he was not too sure.
The power that filled the surroundings was none other than an extremely pure and powerful Curse Power.
However, compared to the curse power that Chen Heng had sensed in the past, this curse power was simply too powerful and terrifying.
The massive power of the curse continued to emerge from a certain place in the distance, spreading towards the surroundings of the city, almost covering the entire city.
With such a terrifying range and immense power, even Chen Heng could not help but feel quite surprised.
As such, he looked around and sent out his mental energy to sense the situation around him.
Under his mental energy's detection, he was able to see the situation around him.
The hazy fog kept appearing, shrouding everything in all directions.
This mist was condensed from the power of the curse. On the surface, it seemed ordinary, but in reality, it contained a strange power that was particularly unique.
What was even more unique was that there were certain existences within the fog.
Sitting there, Chen Heng could sense that.
As the fog rose, shadows that were hidden in the fog gradually appeared in all directions and arrived in this world.
They had come with the fog, and it seemed that they had their own objectives.
A bloody stench came with his mental energy.
Chen Heng immediately frowned.
"The so-called cursed lands?"
Sitting there, he muttered to himself as this thought flashed through his mind.
He had heard about the so-called cursed lands from Yang Cheng and Wu Yu before.
In this world, the so-called cursed lands were usually located in a different dimension.
Normally, these dimensions would not interact with the real world.
However, as time passed, some existences in the real world would occasionally bring the cursed lands over, connecting them to the real world.
When that time came, the existences in the cursed lands would use this opportunity to come to the real world.
Of course, the creatures in the cursed lands were not compatible with the real world.
If they directly appeared in the real world, they would be easily suppressed by the real world's environment and would easily disappear.
As such, they needed a medium.
The black fog in front of Chen Heng was the medium for the curse.
Within the black fog, the curse from the cursed lands could unleash its peak power, and it would not be affected by the real world's environment.
From how Chen Heng saw it, this was a kind of coverage.
The power from the cursed lands was covering the real world, temporarily twisting the laws in this region, resulting in this scene.
After witnessing this scene, it wasn't hard to guess what would happen next.
"It's about to begin …"
Chen Heng silently got up and looked at the outside world.
His line of sight seemed to pierce through layers of isolation, instantly looking into the distance, peeking into a certain direction.
"Almighty Holy Mother …"
In the spacious and splendid church, a series of deep prayers rang out.
In all directions, strange whispers could be heard, as if demons were muttering in one's ears, tempting one to go into the abyss and become a demon.
Meanwhile, in various places, thick curse power had already surged, starting to produce some reactions.
Within the church, light flashed.
In places that ordinary people could not see, the Holy Mother Statue gave off waves of golden light, instinctively expelling the evil in the surroundings and protecting this region.
Back at home, the clone that Chen Heng had split off and fused into the Mother Goddess statue was still active. It seemed to sense something and slowly opened its eyes.
A strange feeling appeared.
In that moment, his main body and clone connected, and a sense appeared, allowing him to understand what was happening.
"Almighty Holy Mother … please send down your divine power to destroy these demons …"
By the side, the middle-aged priest was still muttering to himself, his entire body trembling.
Unlike the others, the middle-aged priest had been given a trace of power by Chen Heng, so he could clearly see the situation around him. He knew just how dangerous the situation was.
Within the region, massive amounts of curse energy were brewing, ready to explode out at any moment.
And the power of these curses, to the middle-aged priest, was full of evil.
At this point, only the church in front of him, under the statue of the Virgin Mary, could give him some sense of security.
This was also the reason why he was here.
"I have to leave …"
Time passed, and in that moment, Chen Heng grasped the situation around him through his clone.
Right now, he could sense just how dangerous the situation was.
The cursed land was exploding, and massive amounts of curse energy were about to descend.
This city had already taken one step into the abyss of destruction and would soon disappear and turn into ruins.
This was undoubtedly a great danger.
It was just that within this danger, there were also great opportunities.
It was just that it depended on whether or not one could grasp them.
This was the case for Chen Heng.
The invasion of the cursed land was a disaster for others.
However, to Chen Heng, as long as he did things well, he might be able to gain something.
Thinking to there, he smiled and got up. As everyone else watched on, he slowly walked forwards.
His figure was quickly engulfed by the black fog and swallowed by it.
Within the region, dense curse energy was devouring the surrounding lifeforce.
In the surroundings, there were already many people who had been killed.
If things went on like this, it would only be a matter of time before this city was completely destroyed.
As he walked within the black fog, Chen Heng could occasionally hear sounds coming from all around him.
There seemed to be the sound of a broadcast, calling for all the residents of the city to leave.
From the looks of it, the officials finally understood that there was no turning back now.
They started to organize residents to move, wanting to reduce their losses.
However, by now, it was too late.
This city was not small, and there were at least hundreds of people living here.
With so many people, how could it be easy to move them all out?
However, by now, there was nothing he could do.
He could only take it one step at a time.
Chen Heng continued onwards, not stopping at all because of the sounds around him.
In the distance, there were cursed existences coming towards him, and they would occasionally clash with Chen Heng's body.
However, Chen Heng did not react to these collisions at all. Instead, the cursed existences that clashed with him dissipated.
Even though the curse energy still existed, it evidently did not affect Chen Heng much.
Soon, he arrived at his destination and returned to the church.
By now, the scene within the church was completely different.
A few corpses were laid out there, revealing themselves to the world.
The corpses' faces were twisted and savage, as if they had suffered great torture before dying.
Above the corpses, there were a few twisted cursed existences eating the corpses, looking incredibly excited.
Looking at this scene, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head and waved his hand.
A bit of power slowly spread out and appeared, directly causing the curse in front of him to change and dissipate.
There was only some black fog left, and nothing else could be seen.
Following this, Chen Heng strode forwards.
Under his gaze, the church in front of him seemed exceptionally different from the other places.
Under the corrosion of the curse energy, other places were gradually being corroded, as if they were being infected by the cursed land's aura.
Only the church in front of him was still shimmering with golden light. It was like an invisible domain that protected this place.
This layer of golden light was the divine power that Chen Heng had left behind.
More accurately speaking, it was the faith energy that the believers had left behind, and after being transformed by Chen Heng, it had turned into thick divine power.
Right now, this divine power was accumulating within, forming a barrier that prevented the curse energy from corroding it.
Chen Heng could sense that there seemed to be many creatures hiding within.
Many of them gave off auras that Chen Heng felt were familiar with.
Sensing these things, Chen Heng continued to walk forwards.
"Don't go in."
A voice sounded out from behind him.
At some point, two figures had appeared behind him.
They stood there and looked at Chen Heng before saying seriously, "Right now, the various places are in chaos. Rather than wasting time here, it's best to leave."
They looked at Chen Heng as they spoke.
These two people were the elderly man and young man who had heard Chen Heng speak before.
At this moment, they seemed to have made preparations to leave the city.
It was not difficult for them to make this choice.
After all, from the current situation, this city could not be saved. If they continued to stay here, they would just be throwing away their lives.
Therefore, leaving this place was the best choice.
However, before leaving, they still came here to see if they could take Chen Heng with them.
Putting aside everything else, Chen Heng's special abilities had left a deep impression in their hearts.
As such, they decided to come and take Chen Heng with them while they still had some time.
From how they saw it, it would not be difficult to do this.
After all, this city was about to be destroyed, and if they continued to stay here, they would just die.
They were sure that once Chen Heng saw this, he would obediently leave with them.
However, what they did not expect was that Chen Heng did not have much of a reaction to their words. He only paused for a moment before continuing onwards.
Under their watchful eyes, his figure slowly moved forward and walked into the church.
In front of him, as if sensing his arrival, the door of the church automatically opened.
