Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1106: Chapter 540: Splitting of the Battlefield

This Disaster Fog indeed has sufficient intelligence, or rather, are the Horror Demons within intelligent enough to start a counterattack? Do they want to divide the team?

Is it some Horror Demon’s ability, or has some kind of Taboo Item been activated?

“Detected space distortion!”

“Suspected to be Demon Abyss Mountain’s Taboo Item: Abyss Dark Side!”

“According to the plan, advance in teams!”

“Prioritize uniting with fellow compatriots within the Disaster Fog!”

Ye Boshou’s heart sank, but he was not surprised.

They had considered many tactics against the Disaster Fog, naturally considering whether Demon Abyss Mountain had strengthened Disaster Fog No. 49.

And they had researched all known Taboo Items from Demon Abyss Mountain from the human side.

Now, this effect of space pulling is Demon Abyss Mountain’s Taboo Item, the Abyss Dark Side, also known as Dark Side Triple Heaven.

It is a mysterious spatial technology that unfolds the world corresponding to the Physical World into three parts and throws the lives within into three spaces. It seems like three worlds are overlapping, but actually, it segregates the Physical World into three parts.

If the Physical World is viewed as a piece of paper, then this Taboo Item folds it twice. To reach other worlds, one must pass through a certain ‘point’.

It is said that the civilization of Demon Abyss Mountain relied on this Taboo Item to avoid invasions from other civilizations, using it as their reliable means of defense.

Now, this Taboo Item is used as a weapon thrown into the Disaster Fog.

The malicious intent is clear; the citizens inside the Disaster Fog require the human side’s protective strength. Yet, this spatial division will scatter human combat strength deployments. This is extremely dangerous within the Disaster Fog full of Horror Demons.

When Li Yelai rushed out of the thick fog, the number of people behind him had greatly reduced.

The army of over three thousand originally was now less than a hundred, still following closely beside Li Yelai. Among them were Ba Shu Guards, as well as Spiritual Ability Users. The Champion Team One following closely beside Li Yelai was more than halved. The captain-level fighters like Fuyun, Gu Yue, and others were nowhere to be seen.

On the contrary, Long Lie, who was relatively far from Li Yelai, was still there.

“Were they assigned to other spaces? Is this a random dispersion, or was it intentional by some Horror Demon?” Long Lie asked warily, looking around.

Cheese looked around too: “Whatever it is, they did separate us.”

“Indeed, we must prioritize resolving this Taboo Item. The battlefield segmentation strategy is too disadvantageous for humans.” Li Yelai responded.

The surroundings were extremely eerie and quiet.

Jagged mountains appeared between high-rise buildings, with even skyscrapers tilting against a pitch-black mountainside.

It seems to be a chaotic combination of part of the Forbidden Zone’s terrain and the Giant City.

Li Yelai was not panicked but followed the agreement. He released fireworks into the sky, and soon, several fireworks responded from afar in the sky.

The group locked onto the firework closest to them and quickly approached it.

At the same time, waves of Spiritual Energy surged, detecting whether there were any signs of Horror Demons or humans around.

A few minutes later, Li Yelai and Long Lie’s expressions slightly changed; their physiques were stronger, allowing them to smell a pungent scent of blood earlier.

Ye Boshou, who was at the front, suddenly raised his hand, signaling the team to stop, and silently led Li Yelai and other Spiritual Ability Users forward.

The next moment, as they passed through a quiet street, they stopped in their tracks.

In front of them lay a bloody ruin.

More than twenty human soldiers and hundreds of civilian corpses covered the street, with even a few Spiritual Ability Users and Iron Guards among them.

This team of soldiers seemed to have been suddenly ambushed by some kind of monster while escorting civilians.

War vehicles were torn apart, firearms broken, bodies cruelly shredded, with many bodies missing necks or jaws.

The blood on the walls and the ground had coagulated and turned black. Faces of fear or anger were permanently frozen.

A young mother desperately clutched her child, trying to use her body to block harm. Yet, her body was pierced through, along with the child in her arms.

A Mountain City Guard angrily swung their War Axe but was besieged, forcibly stripped of their Battle Armor, their head torn off.

Witnessing the bloody scene, Li Yelai and others had veins popping.

The anger of their fellow men being slain made them wish to blade their enemies in blood right now!

What skill does it show to ambush soldiers and civilians? If you have the ability, come fight the Champion!

Cheese then pointed to the distance, and following her finger, Li Yelai saw a tank.

On the tank’s tracks leaned the body of a headless Spiritual Ability User, who had been shattered in the head. Even in death, the Battle Blade in his hand had not slackened.

Beside him, the blood-written words had long coagulated.

It was a… No, it was an unfinished ‘Quiet’ character.

This was a warning left by the Spiritual Ability User with his last strength for those who came after!

Quiet… What does it mean? To be quiet?

But we’ve come all this way, and there doesn’t seem to be any danger?

Meanwhile, Li Yelai and others also sensed a faint breath in the overturned tank.

‘There are survivors?’ The few exchanged glances, somewhat incredulous.

The enemy clearly had the ability to tear apart vehicles and tanks, so why were there survivors in the tank? Were they not discovered?

After quieting the rear team, Li Yelai and the others silently approached the tank.

Soon, Cheese’s lips moved slightly, and a faint sound…
