Five hundred and ninetieth chapters Black Stone Forest

...

After confirming that the camp showed no signs of devilish activities, a new reconnaissance team was soon formed.

Maisie set out first with Agesha to search the camp. Fifty First Army soldiers escorted Soloya, Axia and others who lacked escape ability to follow closely in order to find out the reason for the dissipation of the red fog.

"We're almost here," Lightning gestured to Maisie, "reduce the height."

"Ao!"

Agesha poked her head out and saw the rocky beach appearing in front of her. As the little girl said, the thick red mist had disappeared without a trace, revealing the dark brown earth. Unlike the dark green forest around, there was not a single tree in the camp, as if the ground had been torn off.

This was the first time she had approached the devil's residence.

As a member of the original Secret Society, Agesha couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Lightning is about to land, repeated, lightning is about to land."

"Be careful, and when encountering any possible danger, remember to escape immediately." Roland's voice came from the other end of the magic stone.

"Lightning understands."

Maisie gathered her wings and swooped towards the earth.

The scenery under her feet changed one after another, from the blue sea to the gray and white rugged stone walls, and finally the wet brown earth. Aegas felt a shock all over her body, and the huge terrifying beast fell steadily on the ground.

"The devil lives in such a place?" Lightning was amazed. "I didn't think it was seen from the sky before, but now I see it really is very strange."

Agesha deeply felt the same.

There are dark stone towers everywhere on the empty land, like staggered black forests. The dark spots seen from the sky basically come from these alien buildings - about three or four stories tall, and the short ones just passed over their heads. In terms of density, they are far more than those front-line camps.

It seems that in addition to storing red fog, these stone towers have other functions.

"Although I don't know what happened to them, it shouldn't be too far away from now on the time of the incident," she judged.

"Why do you say that?" Lightning asked curiously.

"Because the stone tower has not yet withered completely," Aegas pointed to the nearest black stone tower. "They only have their surfaces become darker, far from being rough and fragile. This is completely different from the desolate place left by the Union after seizing the frontline camp. It only means that the devil has not made any plans to retreat, or...the decision was very hasty." She paused, "Let's go to the center of the camp to take a look, it is the tall tower where the Eye Demon is, and maybe you can find something."

"I hope Axia can find out the reason--ah!" The lightning that was walking in front suddenly screamed and sank into the ground in an instant. Maisie was so scared that she immediately turned into a dove and soared into the air. Aegas also summoned Han Bing to stand in front of her.

"I'm fine," Before the two of them could react next, the little girl flew out of the hole and slapped the soil on her body and complained, "Who is digging a pit here to harm people!"

What a shocking little devil. Aegas breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to disperse the ice wall, the other party's next words made her heart rise again.

"Hey, there's a devil here!"

"Really," Maisie landed on top of her head, "but it seems to be dead."

"It should be," the little girl patted her chest and said with lingering fear, "Or I'll be in trouble."

Aegas held the ice spear in his hand and leaned over to take a look. As Maisie said, a mad demon stood in the pit with his head hanging down, and the exposed skin had dried and curled, like a salted fish exposed to the sun.

"I remember Sylvie once said that these devils are usually hidden underground, right?" She further confirmed her judgment. Whether they decided to retreat at that time or encountered other changes, things must have happened very suddenly. Otherwise, these devils would not have exhausted the red fog little by little until they died without waiting for new orders.

"Then let's fly and look for it," muttered Lightning, "I don't want to fall into the pit anymore."

She carried Aegas on her back and walked slowly against the ground. After the three of them walked around several rows of stone towers, the vision in front of her suddenly became clear.

An open place appeared in the camp.

"This is..." Aegasa took a deep breath. Judging from the scene, the void was obviously not left by the devil deliberately. A huge hole appeared in the center of the vacant land, almost the size of a Border Town Square, with many stone tower fragments scattered around. The three of them stood at the entrance of the cave and looked down. The hole was deep and it was difficult to see where they were leading.

"It's like where you found you," Lightning burst his mouth, "Do you want me to go down and investigate first?"

"Don't go!"

"No!"

Agesha and Maisie stopped them at the same time.

"Okay," the little girl sighed, showing a look of regret. Since she was punished by His Majesty to do the test questions, her adventure has been much more restrained. "Then let's go around first."

The rest of the camp was similar, and of course the three of them did not have any gains. Maisie found many magic stones in a flat-topped stone tower, as well as a withered and dead Chaos beast - at that time she just wanted to stop on it, but she didn't expect to find a narrow entrance to the patio, probably the airway used by the devil to pour into the red fog.

Two days later, the First Army also arrived at the Rock Beach.

Lian found a cracked slit in the mountains and dug a path on the cliff for only one person to walk. Heavy machine guns and other equipment were transported by Maisie. It took a lot of effort to get fifty soldiers and witches into the inland.

This is also the first contact between human indigenous people and alien races.

Even the most determined soldier was still afraid and panic when he saw the incredible scene in front of him. Roland had long anticipated this and ordered everyone to camp near the entrance of the cliff to avoid being too nervous. As for Asha's replay work, he would not allow the First Army to participate in the bystander.

According to Agesha's inference, the disappearance time of the camp tower should be one and a half to one month before. If the retrospective time exceeds one week, Ahsha's magic consumption will increase rapidly. As for things a month ago, they can only be played back once a day. There is no way to take advantage of it, so I can only try it slowly.

Among the large pile of magic stones transported back by Maisie, there are many practical varieties. Although the quality is far less than the seizure from the demon of fear, it is worse than nothing. It can be said that the mage tower that is about to be completed now is only a living devil.

It was a long process to find out the exact time of the incident. While waiting for the results and developing new things, Roland received a second secret letter from the fjord.
