  Chapter 972 Lake Heart Island

An emerald green acid mist fills all around Rhodes, Rhodes The line of sight can only be maintained within a very small range.

At this time, the special skill reconnaissance that Rhodes had learned was just enough to play a role, expanding Rhodes' line of sight a lot, but it was still very limited.

If it wasn't for the cues coming from the perception that made Rhodes aware of the location of the Divine Item component, Rhodes might have been lost in this environment where there is nothing as a marker.

Walking all the way, the creatures that might exist in the acid mist did not appear. When Rhodes cast Surging Waves Subtle Steps on himself for the third time, he finally came to a piece of land.

All around is also filled with acid mist. Looking around, Rhodes can't see any creatures. If it is not for perception, the position of the Divine Item part is getting closer and closer, Rhodes will even doubt himself moving forward. direction.

There is a solid touch under the feet, no longer the floating feeling of walking on the acid by relying on Surging Waves Subtle Steps, Rhodes knows that this is the Lake Heart Island in Savina's mouth.

After crossing the Plague Lake and arriving on the island, Rhodes felt a little relieved. Compared with the previous scene on the lake, at this time, he did not need to continue to consume mana and cast Surging Waves Subtle Steps. Even if you encounter an enemy and need to fight, you don't have to worry about other creatures hiding under the acid.

Before coming here, Rhodes had thought about what form the sorcerer might take in this area.

In Rhodes' view, if they want to maintain the existence of the town on Lake Heart Island, the most likely way for these magicians is to use the magic ceremony to raise a special barrier, Completely isolate the inner area for its own purpose.

For creatures without Legendary Grade resistance, this area shrouded in acid mist has undoubtedly become a restricted area for their actions. The disturbance of alien creatures.

Even though they had already boarded Lake Heart Island, the signs of the acid mist had not subsided, and Rhodes had not seen any traces of creatures in his sight.

For this reason, Rhodes only thinks that he is still in the outermost periphery of this area and has not been able to touch the core area here. Perhaps only by going deep into it can he discover the real anomaly.

He kept going like this. After a while, Rhodes saw the outline of a shadow appear behind the emerald green acid mist, and Rhodes couldn't confirm what it was through the acid mist.

Due to the obstructed line of sight, Rhodes can only confirm the scene in front of him when he gets close enough. For this reason, Rhodes travels a lot faster and remains vigilant enough in his heart.

As the distance shortened, what was originally obscured by the acid mist also revealed its full picture in front of Rhodes.

It was a wall that had already collapsed for the most part. In this environment full of acid mist, it had existed for an unknown amount of time, and it extended into the distance. The wall in front of Rhodes is full of corrosion marks, and the remaining clods are of different heights, and not far away is an opening of the size for the carriage to pass through.

Relying on his own knowledge, Rhodes was able to identify that the wall in front of him should be a structure similar to a city wall, but it has long since been abandoned. Requires the existence of a city wall.

Perhaps because of being in the acid mist for a long time, the land under Rhodes' feet, including the part of the city wall left in front of him, is full of corrosion marks, but it has not completely melted away, and it still remains. There are parts of the shape.

According to Savina, when the lizardmen who lived near the lake of plague, collected the acid in the pool as a weapon, most of the utensils they contained were also made of mud from the lake. Using other materials, I am afraid that the utensils containing it will be corroded before the acid can be used.

Along the opening on the city wall, Rhodes entered this area without any hesitation.

The existence of Legendary Grade resistance allows Rhodes to move freely in this area. Rhodes has a lot of doubts about this special area in front of him.

After entering it, there are more and more abandoned buildings around. Unlike the city wall, many buildings cannot withstand the corrosion of acid mist due to the material. In the position of the foundation, there are fragments all over the ground.

Only a few buildings still retain part of their former structures after most of them collapsed, revealing strangely shaped shadows under the shroud of acid fog.

Having noticed this, Rhodes didn't even bother to check it out, even when he noticed the shadows appearing in the acid mist.

Perhaps due to the age, there should have been some remnants on the street where Rhodes walked, but Rhodes looked around and saw nothing but corroded and disembodied lumps. Even if Rhodes wanted to get any clues from it, I'm afraid it would be difficult to do so.

Rhodes is still imperceptible to the existence of death energy. In this acid fog, death energy seems to have disappeared. Anything that exists in it will lose its original form under complete corrosion. As with other things, corpses are naturally the first to be destroyed by corrosion.

The signal from the perception is still as strong as ever. Although Rhodes is very concerned about the surrounding environment, he still has not forgotten the real purpose of this trip.

What made Rhodes very concerned was that the end of his trip, the source of the signal in his perception, was not far from him, and it seemed that it should be somewhere in the city.

According to the information previously learned from Thief Guild and Savina, in Rhodes' view, the abandoned town where he is currently located should be a town once established by a magician.

Although the buildings in the city have been corroded for a long time, Rhodes can't judge what kind of creature built the town in front of him from the architectural style alone, but Rhodes has such a hunch in his heart. A town that has close ties with the sorcerer.

After walking through the city for a while, passing over many collapsed buildings, Rhodes finally arrived at the destination of the trip.

Rhodes stopped himself in front of a ruin formed by a collapsed building.

The signal from his perception made Rhodes realize that the Divine Item parts he wanted to acquire during his trip were buried deep in the ruins, and he didn't know how long it had existed.

Rhodes looked all around, still a verdant scene, no expected enemies, no possible battle, not even a living creature, and the last Divine Item he wanted to get , is at his feet, waiting for his acquisition.
