The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013: Terrifying Forbidden Land, Eternal Tombfield

The fog grew thicker and darker, enveloping the sky.

As Carson Flores ran, he lost his sense of direction and found himself lost in the mist.

The fog seemed to have the power to conceal perception; Carson noticed that the range of his senses was diminishing, as if the entire world was rapidly shrinking around him.

Concealed perception?

Could the fog also conceal the old witch’s perception?

If so, his chances of escaping her would be much greater. After all, he could flee in any direction, and if she chose the wrong one, she might end up even further away.

”Carson...”

Carson suddenly turned around, his eyes filled with horror.

He actually heard Shirley Miller’s voice!

All Carson saw was dense fog with no trace of anyone.

”Brother!”

Samantha Tate’s voice also rose, filled with fear, ”It’s so dark here; brother, save me...”

Carson didn’t move.

He quickly took out a Lotus Seed and placed it in his mouth, immediately feeling his mind clear.

The calling voices were gone.

Illusions!

The fog here not only confused people’s perception and caused complete loss of direction but also created hallucinations!

He had only just entered; what would happen if he stayed a bit longer?

A sense of fear surged in Carson’s heart. Was this one of the reasons why the Eternal Tombfield was known as a place of no return?

Could he leave from above?

Carson leapt into the air, preparing to fly high, when a massive shadow suddenly flashed through the thick fog.

The shadow was at least a hundred meters long, swiftly moving through the fog like a giant beast swimming beneath the sea. The outline was blurry, but the terrifying presence enveloped the entire land.

Carson’s body trembled involuntarily due to the immense fear, beyond his control.

What in the world was that?

Carson hurriedly returned to the ground, his heart filled with dread. If he had already been in the sky, would he have collided with the massive figure, or would it have noticed him?

There were no landmarks between heaven and earth; the entire space was obscured by the thick black fog.

It was clearly daytime, but Carson felt as if he was trapped in the depths of a polar night.

”Swoosh!”

A huge figure burst out of the fog and charged towards Carson with incredible speed. It was a towering figure, three meters tall, resembling a human but with hair that seemed to flutter all over its body.

Carson, horrified, executed the Ground Shrinking Technique and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Behind Carson, there came a ghostly howling sound like that of an uncivilized savage from television, completely indecipherable of any emotion.

Cold sweat was forming on Carson’s forehead.

He was in trouble.

Within the fog, there were countless terrifying monsters, each exuding a horrendously fearful aura, like dreadful beasts lurking in the dark waiting to devour someone.

He was only a Nascent Soul; how could he possibly withstand this?

Even a powerful entity from the Hollow Void Realm, upon arriving here, would probably struggle only a bit more than himself...

Carson chose a direction based on feeling and ran for his life, no longer concerned whether the old witch was still behind him.

The fog was more terrifying!

Along the way, shadowy figures in the fog launched attacks on Carson, who relied on the Ground Shrinking Technique to narrowly dodge each assault and flee at high speed.

The attacking shadows included ground-dwelling giant beasts that ran as fast as lightning and large, bizarre birds of prey flying in the sky. But what they actually looked like, Carson didn’t dare to get close enough to see.

His movements seemed to disturb various terrifying presences in the dark, as more and more shadows attacked him.

Cold sweat dripped from the corners of Carson’s brow.

He realized he might have run in the wrong direction. Given the time he had spent entering here, if he had taken the right direction, he should have already left the foggy area; yet, he remained enveloped in it, unable to discern east from west.

While running and dodging without any point of reference, it was extremely easy to stray off course, similar to how difficult it is for a blindfolded person to walk in a straight line.

”Boom, boom, boom!”

Giant creatures stomped on the earth, rushing from afar, and gargantuan figures dived from the sky. Shadows loomed in the fog, their terrifying presence overshadowing everything.

Carson was surrounded!

A gigantic figure broke through the fog, diving straight for Carson.

For the first time, Carson saw the behemoth clearly: it had massive bat-like wings, a huge triangular head, a long, sharp snout, and a body as large as a hill, covered in fur but with ragged skin. The creature’s enormous eyes were all white, and an intense aura of death emanated from it.

It appeared so suddenly, bursting through the fog and charging directly at Carson with the speed of lightning.

Carson had no chance to dodge; the monster was already before him, its sharp mouth lunging at his chest.

At the critical moment, a delicate and fair arm appeared in front of him, striking out in mid-air.

The monster’s vast body instantly flipped like a ship overturned by a wave, tumbling to the side and crashing heavily onto the ground, stirring up a swirl of fog.

Carson shouted with joy, ”Fairy!”
