Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

A few days after Xiao Jin successfully broke through to the Crimson Purple level, the entire Golden Horned Sky Beetle family also broke through to the Deep Blue level. Now, only Xiao Bai is still at the Emerald Green level.

After communicating with Liu Heng and Song Yufei, I learned that a strong tornado had also occurred in their area. Song Yufei was alright, as the shelter was located at the foot of a cliff with three sides composed of huge rocks.

Only the area in front of the shelter was open, so when the tornado passed by, it only swept away two steel cannons and a small warehouse, so the damage was not too great.

However, Liu Heng's situation was rather dire. His shelter was located in a plain, and when the tornado struck, it was in the 30-day relocation cooldown period, making it impossible for him to relocate again.

With no mountains nearby to provide shelter, many businesses were destroyed by the tornado.

The good news is that the main facilities of the shelter were not damaged, so the foundation is still intact.

In comparison, Mo Ming was extremely lucky.

Thanks to the barrier above, the tornado was blocked, and Xiao Jin even received an epic boost from the tornado.

Not only did he master a brilliant new talent, he also earned an exclusive title that even Mo Ming envied.

……

Beep beep!

It was a group message from Mr. Su.

Su Zhenguo: We have some information about the mysterious guest we discovered some time ago that we'd like to share with everyone.

Su Zhenguo: We captured a mysterious guest alive and extracted some information from him.

Su Zhenguo: It can be basically confirmed that the mysterious guests are a group of orcs from the Endless Abyss, of various races.

Su Zhenguo: This appearance is for a large-scale operation, but the specific details are still unknown.

Su Zhenguo: Therefore, please be extremely careful. If you have any new leads, please contact us so we can discuss countermeasures together!

A large-scale operation?

Upon seeing these words, Mo Ming couldn't help but recall that Asya had previously sent Tony and Moto to find the Goat Man Romani with the Azure Flame Vermilion Fruit to refine a pill that could make wild beasts become ferocious for a short period of time.

I wonder if it's related to this large-scale operation?

But what the hell!

As long as you don't mess with me, you can do whatever you want. I'll just develop my own power. Savior? Let whoever wants to be one be one!

The outer perimeter of the territory at this time.

Two groups of people, totaling more than twenty orcs, were standing still, led by Hawkes and Lopez.

"Captain Hawkes, what do you say, should we just go in?" the minotaur asked Hawkes.

"Hmm! Be careful, this place is too eerie."

"Oh dear, Sisi, I'm a little scared. How about I wait for you outside?" Judging from the voice, it was none other than Luo Pei.

Hawkes couldn't take it anymore and roared, "You sissy, if you talk to me like that again, do you believe I'll eat you alive?"

Lopez's team was also stunned by Hawkes' appearance, some even trying not to laugh. What could they do? Their captain was anything but manly!

"Hmph! You stinky man..."

"Stop dawdling. Leave two of you behind. The rest of you come in with me. Be careful."

Hawkes gave the order, and everyone followed him into the dense fog.

Lopez stayed outside with another minotaur.

Not far behind them, a pair of eyes were also staring intently at them.

Near the Great Lake.

The fifth and sixth squads, led by the yellow minotaurs Kenda and Boda, along with the technicians, are also approaching the direction of the Momin Shelter.

Along the way, they continuously used atomized pollen to identify footprints in order to determine their direction of travel.

At this moment, Mo Ming, who was refreshing his bracelet in the main hall, suddenly received a message from above that a large number of people had entered the territory.

"Two directions?"

Mo Ming was somewhat surprised. He knew about the forest from the beginning, but what about the lake?

Could it be... that the buried bloodstains have been discovered?

Whatever the situation, now that we're here, let's not leave.

Mo Ming sent Xiong Da and Xiong Er to provide support in two different directions. Although the enemy had a large number of people, they did not have any experts at the Crimson Purple level. Xiong Da and Xiong Er, along with the giant man-eating flower and the pre-set traps, would be able to take care of all the enemies. They should try to leave two alive.

Although Mo Ming wasn't particularly interested in the large-scale operation Su Lao mentioned, he still wanted to learn more about the orcs.

I have a feeling that there will be many more battles with them later on. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

At the same time, Mo Ming also instructed Shangshang to monitor the number of people and to activate the barrier at the appropriate time, with the aim of ensuring that no one escaped.

We must maintain the secrecy of our place and keep the enemy guessing, which will greatly improve our security.

......

"Captain Hawkes, look over there."

Following the direction his subordinate pointed, Hawkes smiled with a hint of contempt. "These childish traps are only good for catching wild boars. To us, they're like toys in a game. Let's cut them down."

After saying that, his subordinates each took a hit and chopped the trap that Mo Ming had painstakingly set up to shreds, and then burst into laughter.

Little did they know, this was just a smokescreen; an even bigger surprise awaited them.

"what......"

A pitiful scream suddenly rang out, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound to see that a companion had been caught in a large animal trap.

Seeing their companion wince in pain, Hawkes and the others worked together to pry open the animal trap and throw it aside.

"Everyone be careful, watch your step, there are large animal traps here."

"Ah...ah..."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than another shrill scream rang out from the other side.

The sound lasted only a moment before abruptly stopping.

Inside a large pit, the yellow minotaur lay sprawled out, his chest pierced by several golden bamboo stalks, his life extinguished.

Seeing this tragic scene, Hawkes immediately abandoned his contemptuous attitude and began to feel nervous.

"Everyone stay put. There are many traps here. Use your weapons to scout ahead before proceeding," Hawkes quickly decided.

However, they had already entered the dangerous trap zone set up by Mo Ming, and Shang Shang, as an intelligence agent, reported their location to the two enormous creatures that were lurking in the shadows.

Simply using weapons to scout ahead isn't enough to save your life.

brush!brush!brush!

Several thick vines suddenly attacked from beneath their feet, and before the two minotaurs could react, they were dragged directly into the depths of the mist.

The result was predictable! It inevitably became food for the giant man-eating plant.

In a panic, many minotaurs scattered and fled, and then...

Then they stepped into other traps.

Pit, animal trap, rope trap...

Screams filled the entire outer perimeter of the territory.

Upon hearing the sound, Luo Pei and the other minotaur sensed something was wrong, but dared not go in to investigate. After exchanging glances, they had no choice but to run back.

However......
