"We seemed to have hit the wrong person just now …"
"Is it Little Eight?"
"Little Eight, are you alright?"
No one replied. It was as if Little Eight had disappeared from this world. Everyone's face turned pale, and their emotions began to fluctuate.
"Little Twelve, what about you? Are you alright? "
Little Twelve did not reply. Everyone immediately reacted. What happened just now was definitely a conspiracy.
"Are you all stupid? Before you destroy the illusion nodes, don't do anything! "The hunchbacked man's fierce voice spread throughout the fog.
Everyone trembled in fear. The hunchbacked man was the strongest in their group. His strength had already reached the peak of a level 3 apprentice. Rumor had it that he was once a seed apprentice of a sorcerer organization, but because of some evil deeds, he was chased out. However, his inheritance was far more powerful than everyone else's.
"Who is attacking me? Ah — "Someone screamed again.
"Third Brother, what happened to you?"
"That kid is sneakily attacking me. Don't do anything. I can still hold on. Be careful not to fall into a trap." Third Brother's voice was filled with fear.
Everyone could only listen to Third Brother's screams, but they did not dare to do anything. In the end, Third Brother's voice became weaker and weaker. When they shouted again, Third Brother was no longer breathing.
The third person disappeared in the fog. No one knew if he had fallen or been captured.
So far, they did not even catch a glimpse of the other party's figure.
"Real and fake, real and fake. Playing this game with us." The hunchbacked man's expression changed. "The rest of you, prepare to defend yourselves. Try your best to find the illusion nodes. If there are any problems, I will deal with them."
The others nodded.
However, after the hunchbacked man's words, there was no news of anyone being attacked for a long time.
The hunchbacked man's eyes darkened. Since the other party did not do anything, he had to quickly find the weakness of this fog illusion.
However, after a while, the hunchbacked man suddenly clenched his fists. "This illusion is too powerful. The Eye of Barrier Breaker can't see through this fog."
How could it be? It was just the most basic fog illusion. How could he not see any flaws? The hunchbacked man became more and more alarmed as he ventured deeper. He was certain that they were now in the middle of the hurricane. The fog seemed to be surging along with the hurricane, but he could not find any sense of direction.
From time to time, the wind would come from the east, but after he went over, the wind would come from the west. It was as if they were not in a hurricane, but in a tornado.
"Big Brother, I was attacked by that brat!" While the hunchbacked man was still looking for a way out, Little Seven's voice entered his ears.
The hunchbacked man rushed over without hesitation, wanting to save Little Seven. When he rushed over, he still couldn't see Xiao Qi's figure. In other words, ever since he entered the misty illusion, he hadn't seen anyone at all. He could only vaguely hear their voices.
The hunchbacked man seemed to come to his senses slowly. "This is not just a visual fog. This illusion also confuses our sense of direction!"
No wonder the others attacked Little Eight when Little Twelve called for help. It was because they had misjudged the direction. Angor was toying with their sense of direction as if he was toying with it.
The hunchbacked man even believed that Angor didn't even lift his hand from the beginning. He simply played with their minds and the fog.
The hunchbacked man quickly shared his thoughts with the others.
However, after a long while, he did not receive any response from anyone else. The hunchbacked man was puzzled. Could it be that the others had already been affected?
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, "I've found the illusion nodes. Attack according to the directions I tell you. You'll definitely be able to break this damned illusion!"
As soon as this sentence was spoken, it received a response from the crowd.
"Great!", "We'll do whatever you say, Big Brother!", "Let's let that brat taste the power of the Thirteen Rat Brothers!"
The hunchbacked man paled. That wasn't his voice!
It was Angor! He was imitating his voice!
"Don't believe him!" The hunchbacked man yelled. He regretted not using Spirit Bond to connect everyone before the battle. Otherwise, they wouldn't be in such a passive situation.
The hunchbacked man's call did not receive any response. After a long while, an abundant energy fluctuation erupted in the Illusory Realm.
The hunchbacked man's expression grew darker and darker as he screamed in agony. He knew there was no turning back now. No wonder Angor didn't care about them at all. He had the power to crush them all.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the hunchbacked man.
"It's you!" It was Angor. Without hesitation, the hunchbacked man used his strongest attack, Green Poison Corrosion, in an attempt to take Angor's life.
Angor didn't move at all. He didn't even try to dodge the attack. The hunchbacked man was about to succeed, but he didn't look happy at all. Angor wasn't afraid at all. Something must be wrong!
As expected, when the green poison mist covered Angor's figure, it wasn't Angor who screamed in agony.
The mist slowly dispersed, revealing Angor's body. His other twelve brothers were now standing in front of him.
While the hunchbacked man was still panicking, a calm voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Crescent Barrage."
Before the hunchbacked man could turn around, he was already drowned by countless wind blades.
Crescent Barrage was only a level-1 cantrip, and he was defeated by a level-1 cantrip!
The hunchbacked man finally realized that numbers were useless against an illusionist. He could control your speech, your sense of direction, and even your emotions.
Angor had many ways to toy with them. He could even kill them one by one.
However, the other party had only used a fog illusion and a few small tricks. Thirteen of their brothers had been completely annihilated here. Such a person was simply not someone they could kill … Thinking back to what they had said earlier, it all seemed like a joke at this moment.
The hunchbacked man fell into a dark, sweet illusion in his regret.
Angor removed the mist. In a short time, these people were killed one by one in a battle of attrition.
Angor shook his head as he watched Toby use the sequence of gravity to keep the dead bodies floating in the air. He didn't find anything useful after a quick check. They were even poorer than when he first came to Brute Cavern. He only found a single-use space capsule on the hunchbacked man's body. After a closer look, Angor found that the capsule contained all the other people's belongings.
How pitiful and poor.
Angor cleaned up the corpses and tossed them into the sea. As for their souls, he didn't know when they would be born. Angor wasn't interested in waiting. He would just let them wander around Devil's Water.
In the end, he only left one person alive. It was the hunchbacked man. He was still alive. He was only unconscious due to his severe injuries.
Angor only spared his life because he wanted to learn more about the Rat Ant Society.
He planned to keep a few more people alive so that he could gather more information. However, all of them were poisoned to death by the hunchbacked man. Fate was not in his control.
After taking care of these people, Angor prepared to return to The Limpet. He couldn't see anything on the vast sea. The only thing he could see was the rolling waves caused by the hurricane.
Angor considered for a moment and tried to sense the energy signature he left on The Limpet.
The hurricane was so strong that it mixed up the natural energy in the area. Angor couldn't find the exact location of The Limpet. He could only vaguely sense its general direction.
"Northwest? That's a bit far," Angor muttered. He carried the unconscious hunchbacked man and ordered Toby to fly forward.
He was worried that Toby would go too fast and enter the core area of Summerdew Ridge without permission. If that happened, he would offend Summerdew Witch. Therefore, he only asked Toby to maintain the speed of the hurricane. He didn't even need to use the sequence of gravity.
Ten minutes later, Toby had already eaten a magic flower to maintain his Gryphon form.
Angor could clearly feel that he had entered a new channel. He couldn't see the Undead Jellyfish anymore. However, the hurricane did not stop and continued to blow inwards.
Another five minutes passed.
Angor looked at the pitch-black sea with a puzzled look.
Was this the Summerdew Ridge? According to the map he saw, the ridge had many reefs and islands. Also, The Limpet wasn't slowing down at all. Didn't they say to circle around the ridge instead of entering the inner area?
A while later, Angor was out of the hurricane's range.
At the same time, he sensed something strange around him. It was a chilling aura that was slowly eating away at his life force like maggots.
Angor already felt that something was wrong. Was this the Summerdew Ridge where The Limpet used to travel? Or was this the same place? Definitely not!
Maybe something happened on the way and The Limpet entered another area of the sea.
Angor knew that the Death Ring was surrounded by terrifying waters. His best option right now was to turn back. But even if he did that, he wouldn't be able to get out of here without a guide.
He decided to tell Toby to hurry up and find The Limpet first. He wanted to know what was going on before deciding on anything else.
Following the energy signature, Toby soon arrived at The Limpet's location.
He could already tell that The Limpet was in a bad condition even before he boarded the ship.
It was a small island with a radius of about one kilometer. There were no mountains or buildings on the island, only dark, vine-like plants.
The Limpet was entangled by the vines and dragged ashore.
The Limpet was also being stared at by countless dark eyes. The eyes hidden in the dark vines were filled with malice and hatred.
Also, he sensed something familiar from those hostile gazes.
