The moment they retreated to the Extreme Plain, Brando frowned.
He originally thought that he would see a messy battlefield. Or at the very least, Phoenix Fire, Magadal, and the others had not yet defeated the Void Predators, but at least they should have the upper hand.
However, the first thing he saw was an endless thin layer of fog. This fog pervaded the wilderness and hills far and near, and seemed somewhat out of place in this pitch-black world with crisscrossing Lines of Law.
It was just that it was different from the chaotic fog they had seen in the Sea of Magic. The latter was majestic as if it was the power of a world, but the fog here was strange and quiet, as if there were unknown creatures lurking inside.
This fog shrouded the front, as thin as a shroud floating on the water. When Brando looked into it, he immediately felt a slight dizziness, and the system also issued a timely warning.
His willpower was far beyond that of ordinary people, but he was still affected by this fog. This showed how powerful this fog was.
Brando immediately recognized that this was the Mind Fog, a very rare ability of demons.
This gave him a bad premonition. The Mind Fog was actually a variant of dark magic, and most high-grade demons had such power. But they rarely did so. First, because it was unnecessary, and second, because to create such a large-scale fog, they needed to use the means of live sacrifice.
Could it be that Akentu had brought the Sheep-Head believers here too?
He subconsciously looked up at Ferofa and the others, but found that these dragons also had a cautious look on their faces.
And at this time, Aloz's voice came from behind, "Brando, how are things over there?"
As soon as the little female dragon came out of the fog, she hurriedly said, "Brando, not good, Fang Qi is gone!" But when she saw Ferofa and the others not far away, her expression changed, and for a moment, she looked at her former companion with a complicated expression.
Ferofa also looked at her quietly, motionless, but there was no extra expression on her face.
"Fang Qi is missing?" Brando was shocked. If Fang Qi disappeared, there were only two possibilities. Either he escaped during the chaos, or he was taken away.
The former conjecture was not impossible. Fang Qi had always been different from them. Although he was a man of his words, in front of the mystery of the jade, as the successor of the Ghost Chariot, it was inevitable that he would have ulterior motives.
Although Brando never liked to be suspicious, he still asked cautiously, "Where's Miss Delfien?"
"That woman … She's still here." The female dragon looked at Fu Luofa and said.
"What about the ship?"
"I sent Mister Liu and Huang Huo over, but there is still no news."
"What happened?"
"When we were fighting, a fog suddenly appeared. Many Lesser Demons appeared in the fog. Everyone hurriedly gathered and found that Fang Qi had already disappeared."
Brando frowned. In fact, he had already made up his mind. He raised his head and looked at Fu Luofa. The seemingly unfamiliar black-haired girl also shifted her gaze from Aloz and looked at him.
Brando knew that the ship was stranded on the 'beach', and Fang Qi did not have the ability to get it back to the sea. He only asked for insurance purposes.
And if Fang Qi left because of the Jade Heart, he would most likely take Delfien away. This should not take much effort for him at that time.
But he did not do so, so the remaining possibilities were self-evident.
And there were only two groups of people who could take Fang Qi away. One of them was Fu Luofa and her people, and the other force was Akentu and his minions. Of course, the latter was more likely, but Brando still could not rule out the former.
Besides, who knew if this was a trick by the other side.
Although Brando did not think it was necessary.
Fu Luofa's calm eyes were very persuasive. Although she did not speak, Brando still subconsciously cleared the suspicion of these few dragons.
"Don't you have anything to say?" He asked.
"If you don't believe us, there's no point in saying anything. If you believe us, there's no need for us to say anything," Fu Luofa replied simply.
She paused and thought for a moment before asking, "I have a question. Who is Fang Qi?"
"He's our companion." Brando replied. At the same time, he observed Fu Luofa's expression as if he wanted to see if she was lying. But to his disappointment, the girl only had one expression from beginning to end.
"I'm not interested in that. What I mean is, why did Akentu take him away?"
"Are you so sure that it was Akentu who took him away?" Brando frowned and said, "How can I be sure that this is not deliberately misleading?"
"I don't care what others think. This is just my judgment, and I don't need others to believe it," Fu Luofa replied, "because now I'm the one asking a question, not answering your question."
Brando was silently stunned for a moment and could not help but look back at Aloz. He thought to himself, so Fu Luofa's usual personality was like this. It was hard to imagine that the little female dragon was willing to be with someone with such a personality.
Aloz just stared blankly at her former companion, as if she had lost her soul.
At this time, Brando saw one of the dragons behind Fu Luofa whispering something in her ear. The girl's face showed a rare look of shock and anger, "Fang Qi is the Nine Phoenix with you?"
"What?"
"Forgive me for not accompanying you!" Fu Luo Fa and the other dragons seemed to have encountered something urgent, and they all turned around and left. Brando was stunned for a moment. He wanted to make them stay, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea.
The little female dragon opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she could not make a sound. She could only watch the other party's back disappear into the fog.
After a long while, she turned her head and said, "Brando, Fu … and them?"
"It seems that they are not completely on the same side as Akentu. That demon has other intentions and included them in his calculations." Brando also looked in that direction and replied.
"Then we …?"
"Go and gather everyone. Things may become a little troublesome."
Brendel furrowed his brows. He did not leave Fu Luofa behind because he had already guessed the possibility behind. In that case, there was no need to waste time on these dragons controlled by the Twilight Dragon. If they left earlier, they might be able to cause some trouble for Akentu.
Brando had already guessed that Akentu's purpose was the Stagnation Realm. In fact, they had inferred this before going here. It was just that he did not expect that the Lord of Purgatory was so impatient that he personally took action before the seal was lifted.
He had overestimated the importance of the Twilight Dragon to the Stagnation Realm, but he did not expect that he still underestimated it. The secret was so urgent that a high-grade demon lord would not hesitate to take a great risk to take action. It should be known that if all three of Akentu's clones unfortunately fell outside, the seal that maintained it would probably be extended for thousands of years.
Everyone quickly gathered together. Even Huang Huo and Mr. Liu, who were sent by Aloz to check the stranded sailboat, were called back. Brando explained his inference, and everyone felt the seriousness of the situation. However, the others did not think too much about it. They just subconsciously thought that they could not let the Twilight Dragon get the Orb of Nature first.
At that moment, no one said anything. The Prime Minister's daughter also began to re-infer the calculation process that was interrupted by the previous battle. It took less than a quarter of an hour to find the way to the Stagnation Realm again.
They did not encounter any trouble along the way. Although it was obvious that Akentu had left many of his minions along the way, Fu Luofa and the others seemed to have passed through here first. Most of Akentu's minions were turned into broken corpses by the angry dragons. The remaining few that escaped the net did not cause any trouble for Brando and the others.
However, Brando felt a little puzzled along the way. Obviously, Fu Luofa and Akentu were very clear about the location of the Stagnation Realm. Along the way, whether it was Akentu's arrangement or the traces left by Fu Luofa and the others, they had never deviated from the scope of Delfien's calculation.
This was not to say that Brando thought that only the Prime Minister's daughter in the world could crack the strange formula and calculate the location of the Mystery of the Emerald. What made him curious was that the Sheep Head Cult knew this place like the back of their hand. From the layout of the cult in the Sacred Land of Atuk, they had obviously figured out the secrets inside and outside the Moons Channel. Otherwise, Fu Luofa and the others would not be able to come in and out of this place so easily.
But in this case, why did the Sheep Head Cult never send people to the Nine Phoenix to find the descendants of the Jade Phoenix and the Phantom Chariot in the past few decades?
Otherwise, they would have opened the Stagnation Realm long ago. How could he bring Huang Huo and Fang Qi to this place?
Even if the descendants of the Jade Phoenix and the Phantom Chariot were more noble than the average person, they were often heavily guarded. But not every descendant of the Jade Phoenix and the Phantom Chariot were Huang Huo and Fang Qi. In fact, the existence of Huang Huo and Fang Qi in a huge family was in the minority. They could even be regarded as the core existence. But in the periphery, there were many descendants of the Jade Phoenix and the Phantom Chariot bloodline.
Just like in Erouine, core members of the royal family like Haruz, Gryphine, the eldest prince, and Chiara were also considered the descendants of the 'royal' bloodline. But there were also descendants of the 'royal' bloodline like Amandina, Ling, and Lotus who were wandering outside, not to mention some branches of the family. Not everyone had a high status.
