Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1682 - Chapter 1682 Chapter 965 Breaking into the Black Fog_2

Chapter 1682: Chapter 965: Breaking into the Black Fog_2 Chapter 1682: Chapter 965: Breaking into the Black Fog_2 The first thing that hit him was a strong smell of blood and the taste of scorching heat. Then, he was faced with a dismal scene, as if night had fallen, making it hard to discern the specifics.

Guided by Ariel Watson’s light orb, Leo Ray stepped out of the hotel lobby and onto the chaotic street outside, taking it all in.

Overhead, a heavy black fog was swirling around, blocking out the sun entirely.

The street was in shambles. Fallen noble flags and scattered pieces of weaponry littered the ground everywhere, but there were no bodies in sight.

From this, it was easy to see that this was not the main battlefield of the previous encirclement in the Central City Area but rather the scene left behind by the opposing forces in their panicked flight.

The strong smell of blood, however, made it abundantly clear just how brutal the battle must have been.

Leo Ray didn’t have time to contemplate it further. He quickly spread his light-purple magical wings and flew to the highest point in the area, a spacious open-air balcony. He then activated his divine power, God’s Stone, to sense the surroundings.

The eye of the storm should be the most violent and chaotic part of a Dimensional Storm. Coupled with the limited area of Central City Area, it should not be difficult to sense it.

However, Leo Ray was stunned to find that there were more than a dozen suspected storm eyes scattered throughout the Central City Area, far apart from each other. There wasn’t enough time to check them one by one.

Moreover, the energy particles in the Dimensional Storm were extremely unstable, and any disturbance could potentially accelerate the progress of the storm.

Therefore, allowing Jasper Richardson to use a teleportation spell here was clearly not a wise choice.

“Lord, it seems the situation is more complicated than we thought. For the time being, I can’t accurately determine the exact location of the storm eye,” Jasper said.

Jasper frowned as he bowed respectfully. “The Central City Area has just experienced a large battle, causing the energy in the air to be extremely disordered. The fact that this dimensional storm was artificially created makes it even less predictable.”

“Mr. Lane, what should we do now?”

Hearing Jasper’s words, the elders who had just arrived, including Thomas, eagerly asked for instructions: “Please give your orders, Mr. Lane!”

“It seems that relying solely on sensing will not pinpoint the exact location of the storm eye. Luckily, we have a backup strategy.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly to assure Thomas and the others that there was no need to worry. A small fairy with transparent wings, Little Illusion, appeared on Leo Ray’s shoulder.

“Lord, I have already consumed a significant amount of energy. I cannot maximize my sensing abilities. I need your assistance,” Little Illusion said, nodding earnestly to Leo Ray, ready for action.

Seeing Little Illusion’s emergence, the elders suddenly understood.

Although they did not know the origin of Little Illusion, they clearly understood that this mysterious creature possessed illusion techniques comparable to a fifth-tier power, which enabled Mr. Lane to deceive them initially.

As the Sanders Family was one of the leading forces in determining the dimensional storm detection mechanism in the Cold Flame Kingdom, the elders also had a fair understanding of dimensional storms.

Another product of the Dimensional Storm was naturally formed illusions, and the closer the area was to the storm eye, the more genuine and condensed the illusions.

Therefore, using illusion techniques and normal detection methods interchangeably could undoubtedly eliminate interference to the greatest extent and locate the storm eye as quickly as possible.

“I will now give you a portion of the divine power,” Leo Ray said.

While the elders of the Sanders Family had an epiphany, Leo Ray nodded at Little Illusion. He then lightly touched Little Illusion with his finger and began to slowly infuse energy.

Little Illusion, a divine creation whose real form was God’s Stone, had the same essence as a divine emblem and could perfectly adapt to this divine power.

As Leo Ray’s energy slowly infused, Little Illusion’s eyes glowed brightly, and a peculiar sensing power immediately spread out, creating ripples in the oppressive and dark surroundings.

Jasper also closed his eyes and concentrated. With senses heightened, he began to communicate with Little Illusion.

Soon, Little Illusion and Jasper both opened their eyes and said in unison to Leo Ray: “Lord, we know the location of the storm eye!”

“Let’s go immediately.” Leo Ray, with his magic wings primed and ready, was guided by Jasper Richardson and Little Illusion, rushing towards the target location.

But around Leo Ray, there was nothing but boundless black fog accompanied by a pair of unblinking, resolute eyes.

As they pushed through the thick fog, they quickly reached the main battlefield in the Central City Area from not long ago.

Our side had made a clean sweep in this region, ultimately annihilating twelve legions of the enemy.

The area was almost razed to the ground, covered with broken tiles and ruins, bearing no semblance to its previous appearance.

Burnt arrows and remnants of spells were strewn across every broken wall, with still-fresh blood visible everywhere, dripping slowly from the walls.

Scattered about the entire street were the corpses and severed limbs of soldiers from both sides, their sight evoking a sense of bleakness and blood red despair.

But Leo Ray and his accompanying party didn’t have time to indulge in the war-torn sceneries resembling the end of the world; they continued to march towards their summer destination.

After crossing a few blocks, the scene before their eyes left everyone dumbstruck once more.

Before them was another field full of bodies, but this time, all flags of the Sanders Family strewn on the ground were torn and tattered.

“Cole?! Kowen?!”

Old Thomas, who was closely following Leo Ray, immediately recognized the decapitated bodies of the commanders lying in the front, his eyes filled with shock and sorrow.

“Buzz!”

“Laura!”

The elders, Kane and Elder Evan, who arrived shortly after, also found the bodies of their respective commanders. They were either cut in half or beheaded, each one having suffered a brutal death.

The commander’s bodies were scattered around a much larger number of soldiers’ bodies, all of them looking terrified, as if they were caught trying to escape from the battlefield.

Suddenly, an unsettling atmosphere filled the team.

How did the Sanders forces, whom they came to rescue, end up dead on the scene?

“Don’t be deceived by what you see; it’s just an illusion created by spellcasting!”

Without any hesitation, Leo Ray nodded at Little Illusion.

“Such petty tricks won’t fool an Elf like me!”

As Little Illusion flapped her transparent wings, a visible light gray energy fluctuation spread out quickly.

Where the light gray energy swept across, the crowded bodies of the Sanders soldiers vanished into thin air, as if they never existed.

“These are indeed illusions. The illusionists can mimic the corpses of our Sanders family but can’t replicate our undying brave souls. Our commanders would never leave the battlefield and abandon their soldiers!”

Elders like Thomas quickly came to their senses and once again congregated around Leo Ray.

“Don’t stop; we’ve no choice but to press on.”

Leo Ray, abandoning his hesitation, increased his pace, pressing on deeper into the thick fog.

Before long, a sudden brightness dazzled their eyes.

They found a circular area up ahead where the weather was fair, and the sun was bright, forming a striking contrast with the surrounding pervasive black fog.

But in the center of that bright area, there was a pitch-black energy ball spinning wildly, whipping up fierce winds.

That was the core of the storm.

The sight brought relief to everyone. As long as they destroyed the dimensional core within, everything would be solved!

But just then, the energy ball, which resembled the dimensional core, suddenly burst open, tearing apart a massive spatial rift.
