"Another hidden quest?"
Jiang Han looked at the item in his hand with interest.
Just looking at its exterior, it resembled a rhombus-shaped crystal, but the texture was much heavier, and it felt slightly rough to the touch.
Jiang Han put away the [Guidance of the Holy Spirit].
Since entering 《Doomsday》, he had only received two hidden quests in total.
One was 'Forbidden Condemner' triggered by the Chapter of Brutality, and the other was this 'Finding the Lost Holy Spirit'.
The former had some clues, because of the Brutal Fang, Jiang Han had some idea, it was in the Abyss Continent, he could go when his level was high enough.
As for this so-called 'Holy Spirit', he really had no clue at all.
He didn't even know what a Holy Spirit was.
BOSS? Equipment? Item?
Or something else?
"Forget it, take it one step at a time, the boat will right itself when it reaches the pier."
Jiang Han didn't care too much, looked ahead, the white figure condensed in the center of the torch had completely disappeared, it seemed its appearance was just to release this token.
[Ding! You have completed the challenge of the Holy Spirit Arena, and are being teleported...]
The system prompt sounded, and Jiang Han's figure became blurred.
……
Outside Water Moon City.
"Elder, this gray fog seems to have become even more terrifying."
Several figures gathered together, facing each other.
The middle-aged man in black armor looked extremely solemn, "At this rate of spread, it will affect Water Moon City in at most one day."
"Indeed, and the concentration of the gray fog is visibly increasing. Now, even if we return to the area where we were before, I'm afraid there will be danger to our lives."
"Very likely."
The others echoed in agreement.
Looking at Melz's eyes, there was more admiration.
Worthy of being a Divine-level powerhouse, he actually had such precognitive abilities, detecting the danger in advance!
Fortunately, they were not reckless, otherwise they would probably be in big trouble now.
"This kid... what did he do inside?"
Listening to the discussion of the others, Melz was also a little puzzled.
Not long after they left the gray fog, the gray fog suddenly soared, if there was no trick in it, no one would believe it.
"By the way, Elder, that friend of yours..."
The middle-aged man in black armor suddenly remembered something and asked in a low voice, "Will there be any problems?"
"Problems?"
Melz snorted disapprovingly.
He knew what the middle-aged man meant, not doubting Ye Han's identity, but whether there would be problems under the concentration of this gray fog.
"Don't worry, I don't know about other people, but if it's this kid, his life is as tough as a cockroach, he won't die even if Water Moon City explodes."
Melz waved his hand dismissively.
What a joke, a character who can enter and leave the Fire God Temple at will, who knows if he has any trump cards in his hand.
This little gray fog can poison him to death?
Then Melz would rather believe that the end of the world is tomorrow when he wakes up.
"This..."
The others looked at each other, a little unbelievable, they were frightened by the concentration of this gray fog.
"Elder, is your friend also Divine-level?" Someone asked cautiously.
"Divine-level? He's far from it."
Melz curled his lips, "Only level forty-something."
"Then you are so confident?"
It would be better not to explain, but with this explanation, everyone became even more confused.
Only level forty-something?
Not even past the level fifty mark, even the most talented person would be crushed to death with one finger, right?
"I can't explain it to you, in short, this kid is very evil, you know what I mean."
"Don't ask about things in society."
Melz waved his hand impatiently.
"Okay."
The others didn't dare to say more.
But they all vaguely felt in their hearts, was the elder being fooled?
But when they thought of that person being able to enter and leave the gray fog at will, it didn't seem like he had no ability...
In short, two words: tangled.
It's not that they didn't believe Melz, but this kind of thing was really beyond their comprehension, it was difficult to convince people just by talking.
"Don't discuss these things."
Melz looked into the distance and said, "The speed of this gray fog's invasion has increased again, you guys go to Water Moon City now and let all the residents accelerate their evacuation, abandon everything that should be abandoned."
"At this rate, Water Moon City will be completely covered in less than half a day, this city... definitely can't be saved."
Everyone glanced at the gray fog in the distance, the boundless fog was rolling in, like thousands of horses galloping, the speed of spread could be seen with the naked eye even from such a distance.
"What exactly happened?"
Everyone's hearts couldn't help but become heavy, and they also knew the seriousness of the matter, and quickly changed direction and headed towards Water Moon City.
"Wait!"
However, before they could go far, they heard Melz's voice, "No need to go!"
The middle-aged man in black armor looked at Melz with a puzzled expression: "Elder?"
Melz's voice sounded again: "The gray fog, it's gone!"
"Ah?"
Everyone was stunned, and subconsciously looked up into the distance.
"Holy crap?!"
A cry of astonishment cut through the sky, shaking the trees and scattering the birds.
Five faces of confusion.
Except for Melz who was slightly calmer, the other five stood in place in a daze, motionless like sculptures.
Because what was reflected in their pupils was a scene of beautiful mountains and clear waters.
The gray fog that was rolling in had disappeared without a trace.
……
At the same time.
Inside Water Moon City.
"Auntie Xena, are you leaving Water Moon City?"
Aisha stood in the corner and asked in a lost tone.
Xena, leaning against the door, was silent for a while, but nodded:
"..., Yes, little Aisha, we must leave."
"Then... what about Daddy?"
Aisha twisted her two index fingers together, her little face full of worry and loss, "Has Daddy recovered? Can he leave with you?"
"He..."
Xena opened her mouth, a trace of intolerance flashed in her eyes, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Aisha's father was infected with black fog, although it was not strong, but when he arrived in the city, a long time had passed, even if she used advanced cleansing techniques, she couldn't dispel the gray fog.
She could only rely on healing techniques and medicine to keep him alive.
But how should she tell this poor child this fact?
"Auntie Xena..."
Xena's silence still made the clever Aisha realize something, big tears fell, Aisha pinched the corners of her skirt tightly, her small body trembling uncontrollably with fear: "Auntie Xena, please, wait a little longer, okay? Wait a little longer, okay?"
"Daddy will definitely get better, little Aisha is very good, Daddy... Daddy said, as long as little Aisha is good, he will get better."
"And... and Lord Ye Han has already come to help us, hasn't he?"
