Ripples were brewing under the calm sea.
From the beginning of Order all the way to the front line of the Towering Island, the energy of the apocalypse was extremely unstable. There was a possibility of encountering a whirlpool in this sea. It was unknown how it was formed, but sometimes there would be a huge whirlpool that sucked everything nearby into the deep sea.
At present, the situation inside the whirlpool was unknown. Even Legends would not easily enter it. They could only vaguely guess that it was related to the ruins at the bottom of the sea.
Chen Feng could not let the troops stay on the sea for too long because it would speed up the arrival of failure. The apocalypse was full of countless possibilities. Compared to luck, the probability of danger was 80%.
Therefore, Chen Feng needed to find a new foothold. That foothold would isolate Order from the Towering Island and become the new barrier and main battlefield for Order.
The exploration team did a thorough investigation of the surroundings.
Soon.
A huge island appeared in the line of sight of Order. There was a rather lush forest on it. This island was three times larger than the towering island. The only drawback was that it was quite a distance away from the towering island. This required strict surveillance and attention. This was because Order had to respond before they discovered that the City of Silver had sent troops.
"Stop!"
Chen Feng stared at the island in front of him. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
He was the destroyer on this unfamiliar island. He had to adjust his attitude so that it would not affect his next judgment. As the island was very large, Chen Feng could only choose a place to land. There was no natural harbor here, and war was imminent. Therefore, everything was being carried out in full swing.
Roar!
The low roar of a beast was heard.
There was a dense forest here. As it was in the corner of the deep sea, it was sealed off after the apocalypse. Under such circumstances, no one knew what kind of enemy was here.
Unlike the deserted islands in peacetime where there were only pure beasts, after the apocalypse, the dangerous creatures were not only the aborigines, sprints, and mutated creatures. There were also some species that were born with powerful strength.
Previously, the exploration team had described some of the monsters during their search. Those powerful monsters had the body of a gorilla, but their size was dozens of times larger than an ordinary gorilla. Fortunately, if they were not provoked, those behemoths would not take the initiative to attack humans. However, if they were accidentally provoked, they would definitely become terrifying existences!
These monsters could even weigh more than five tons. They had steel-like bones, and their huge fists could break mountains and crush stones with their bare hands. The energy of the apocalypse had further strengthened these terrifying fellows. This was the apocalypse. Any creature had the possibility to evolve!
As they continued to explore, some ugly creatures came into view.. They were Sludge Monsters!
There was no doubt that this was a group of creatures from another world.
Sludge Monsters were usually about eight feet in diameter, but sometimes they would be giant Sludge Monsters.
As the Ooze wriggled forward, its body lengthened until it was 16 to 32 feet long, then retracted forward from the rear, returning to its original diameter of about 8 feet. Again and again, the exercise behavior was realized.
Sludge Monsters usually moved slowly, but when they were searching for food or when they were threatened, they would explode with great speed. Don't be fooled by their clumsy appearance.
All Sludge Monsters, regardless of whether they were aggressive or not, were quite dangerous. This was because their composition contained a strong acid without exception. It was unknown whether this was a natural mixture or a chemical reaction within the Sludge Monsters.
Although Sludge Monsters were inorganic creatures, they still needed to hunt for food. After they caught their prey, their sticky bodies would quickly wrap around the prey so that it could not escape, and the strong acid would quickly digest and dissolve the prey. If a creature was swallowed by a Sludge Monster, it would be digested within a minute.
According to the intelligence, there were tens of thousands of Sludge Monsters here. These creatures could not have been born on this island. In addition, when Chen Feng stood at the bow of the ship, he smelled a familiar smell. It was a slightly fishy smell of sulfur.
There was the smell of the Abyss here.
As a knowledgeable person who had mastered a lot of knowledge about the Abyss, Chen Feng quickly analyzed which force these Sludge Monsters belonged to.
Faceless Lord
It was a chaotic and evil male demon lord. Its powers were Sludge Monsters, Poison, and Sloth.
Preferred Weapon: Heavy Hammer
Evil Emblem: A melting red eye
Temple: Cave, Garbage Dump, Sewage Pipe
Believers: Those who seek power from other planes, drug addicts, poisoners, and slackers.
A being who controlled an entire plane in the Abyss, Jupilex, was a name that would cause headaches to Abyssal creatures when they heard it.
Among the demon lords who could feel his influence on Grallion, Jupilex was probably the one who did not care about religious worship the least. His favorite Sludge Monster servants liked to spread his religion more than he did himself. In fact, it was debatable whether Jupilex even knew that he had believers. Only among the Drow, his belief was particularly widespread. They believed that he was the sponsor of poisons and toxins.
Of course, rather than a respectable entity, he was more of a source of power that was worth digging up. However, although Jupilex was not interested in the loyalty of his believers, he liked to absorb unwilling human bodies from the material plane into his protoplasts, and never rejected any sacrifice that his worshippers gave him.
The lord of any plane was not to be underestimated.
Jupilex's body was an amorphous, marble-like green ooze with black tar and hundreds of glaring red eyes the size of a human head. In battle, he could use a few of his acidic and poisonous tentacles to attack. The nature of these poisons changed from one attack to the next, making it difficult, if not impossible, to prepare for their destruction in advance.
Jupilex's poisons could even affect creatures that were not normally poisoned, further cementing his position as the Lord of Poisons. The acid secreted by his massive body was particularly effective on flesh and bone, and could also harm creatures that were immune to acid. But using irresistible poison and supernatural acid to attack his enemies was the simplest form of terror that Jupilex could unleash.
Those who survived after facing the Faceless Lord told stories of Jupilex extracting fluids such as blood and tears from living creatures, then injecting these fluids into a destructive ooze before returning the extracted fluids to the person whose body it had been extracted from, allowing it to be consumed painfully from the body. Others said that the Faceless Lord had the ability to turn the air into a thick, disgusting suspension that was both uncomfortable and difficult to pass through. Even if the air around Jupilex did not thicken, the stench of his presence could kill plants and peel flesh from bones. Of course, the Demon Lord had other means of attack, and so far, no one had survived his atrocities to warn the world.
What did this mean?
When faced with the Faceless Lord, no matter how powerful the warrior or the mage, they would all cower in fear. No one could escape from the hands of the Faceless Lord. This was the conclusion drawn from countless years of challenges.
Jupilex's kingdom in the Abyss was known as the Pit, which consisted of intricate sewer-like catacombs and tunnels that snaked beneath dozens of other Abyss countries. To some extent, the Pit functioned like the sewer system of the Abyss. It had the ability to connect all the major cities on the plane. Many creatures used the Pit to secretly move or destroy evidence from country to country, but when they did so, they had to be careful to avoid Jupiter, or otherwise ensure that there were enough "distractions" to keep him busy while the travellers went about their business.
The Faceless Lord roamed the bottom of the pit almost randomly, often appearing in certain areas but rarely visiting other areas. This caused other strange and dangerous creatures to claim sovereignty over these areas.
Some said in private that the tunnels and pipes in the Pit could even extend to many worlds on the Material Plane. This theory was supported by the fact that Jupilex was far more famous in many worlds than the other Demon Lords.
Chen Feng fell into silence for a few minutes after this knowledge came to him. This was a great existence that could stretch its stinking hands to other planes.
Like many other non-humanoid demon lords, Jupilex had existed before the rise of demonic life in the Abyss. In those primitive times, he was similar to a real Demon Lord without intelligence.
When the Demon Lords appeared in the Abyss, this Jupilex's original form encountered more and more demons as it searched the tunnels in the Pit. At first, it just devoured them, but as it did so, it began to retain fragments of their evil minds. Over time, Jupilex accumulated countless fragments of personality and formed his own wisdom.
In this regard, the Lie Demons and the Faceless Lord were surprisingly similar. They both relied on devouring to gain power and knowledge.
However, the new Jupilex, who dug out the personality from the demon's mind, became a demon himself. When he swallowed and digested a now-forgotten Demon Lord with tunnels and toxins, Jupilex became a fully developed Demon Lord.
In theory, the Faceless Lord had the characteristic of unlimited devouring and growth. It was unimaginable what would happen if his protoplasmic body devoured a real god.
After searching through his memories, Chen Feng obtained a one-sided image of the Faceless Lord. The Faceless Lord was an extremely ugly overlord. It was said that even he couldn't bear to see his own appearance. If a mortal saw him, they would die immediately.
Moreover, Chen Feng had even found the prayers of his believers.
"Glory to the darkness, my silent master, guardian of plagues, father of slimes, Jupilex!"
Jupilex's servants were probably one of the most disgusting creatures in the Multiverse. Their skin was covered with mucus and they always emitted a foul smell. Jupilex's servants had no status in normal society, but the more powerful servants could rely on disguises to move around the civilized world.
Warriors and barbarians would sometimes become Jupilex's servants, and the priests who served the Demon Lord would often embark on this different path.
Jupilex's servants always acted alone. Apart from undead creatures, gelatinous monsters, and cancerous sorcerers, no one could stand the smell.
And now, the strange smell that appeared in this land was most likely the work of the Faceless Lord's believers.
This was a tricky situation.
Chen Feng frowned slightly. This world was extremely huge. Since the establishment of order two years ago, apart from the several tens of kilometers of land that they controlled, they did not have much authority over other environments. This was the end of the world, a world that had attracted countless powerful enemies and monsters due to the presence of energy.
Under such circumstances, especially in unfamiliar areas and islands, it was very likely that dark forces from other worlds were entrenched. For example, this newly discovered land.
Everything here was extremely annoying. Before they even reached the shore, they were already frowning because of the smell in the air.
Looking for a new land?
That was impossible.
According to the intelligence, the City of Silver had accumulated a large number of soldiers on the island. With Order stopping the food supply, the City of Silver's food supply was decreasing day by day. In order to survive, the City of Silver's upper echelons had to respond accordingly!
Chen Feng had no choice. This island was undoubtedly the most suitable place for Order to settle down. What he needed to do now was to drive away the natives who occupied this place.
Chen Feng had offended too many powerhouses, and he did not care about adding another Faceless Lord.
As the fleet docked nearby, Chen Feng's figure flew up. When he was dozens of meters in the air, Chen Feng saw many monsters that should not have appeared in this world.
Beneath his feet was a dense forest.
He could see broken trees and huge footprints on the ground. The Sludge Monster's figure was easy to recognize. After its smelly and soft body swept across the ground, the originally thick ground began to smell as if it was being corroded. It was impossible to restore it to its original state in a short period of time.
And because of the energy, some plants had mutated. Those plants had become predators. They were no longer satisfied with ordinary flies and mosquitoes, but became bigger and stronger creatures.
The situation on this island was roughly the same.
In terms of environment, this place was much worse than the island, so Chen Feng would probably need a long time to develop this place. Unfortunately, the City of Silver and this war were destined not to give him much time.
So …
Chen Feng rubbed his brows and said to the messenger, "Begin Plan A."
"Yes!" The warrior received the reply and hurriedly went to pass on the order.
When dealing with a troublesome relationship, the most appropriate thing to do was to sever it. When dealing with a dilapidated house, the best thing to do was to rebuild it. As for this island full of unknowns, what Chen Feng needed to do now was to completely destroy it. All vegetation and life would perish, leaving behind a barren military fortress that was most suitable for warriors to use as a foothold.
