115: Trapped Luo Mu

On the streets of An City, a couple was evacuating their child from the poisonous fog.

They were the last to leave this area; everyone else had already fled when the Poison Spiders first began their rampage.

"Daddy, there's a monster!"

The five or six-year-old child pointed in a direction and shouted, but his father casually dismissed it:

"Okay, okay, Daddy is Ultraman, so we're not afraid even if a monster comes."

However, the father didn't take it seriously in his heart.

Besides the pervasive poisonous fog, there wasn't even a single Mutated Creature around, so where would a monster come from?

But suddenly, he felt the ground tremble slightly, and when he looked back, he saw a monster three or four stories tall walking towards him.

Immediately, he and his wife were about to flee with their child, only to find a giant black cat appearing on the other side.

"Daddy, quickly turn into Ultraman, quickly fight the monster!"

The child excitedly called out, but her mother quickly covered her mouth.

The man also shielded his wife and child behind him, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.

He was just an ordinary Swordsman Professional; where would he get the ability to fight monsters?

These two behemoths, they must be Mutated Creatures, right? How could they appear here?

However, the man's question didn't linger for long before he was immediately drawn to a figure on the giant black bear.

That seemed to be a person, looking at them.

The person was lowered by the giant bear and walked towards them, asking:

"Excuse me, have you seen a Squinty-eyed Man before?"

"Or, have you seen a team of Professionals, led by a young man about this tall?"

Gu Qinghan gestured Luo Mu's height, his face showing no emotion.

After Chen Yuting left, Gu Qinghan lingered in place for a long time before finally pulling himself together.

Chen Yuting's departure was too sudden, so sudden that he wasn't even a little prepared.

Moreover, Chen Yuting wasn't dead, but was trapped in a place she was unwilling to speak of.

But since this was a game that had never appeared before, would he one day be able to find this place?

Gu Qinghan didn't know, but he would make this a primary goal besides becoming stronger and surviving.

And to figure these things out, he needed to become powerful, and at the same time find Luo Mu and the previous Squinty-eyed Man.

As fellow Time Walkers, the other party should know some things.

The man quickly shook his head; he hadn't seen these people.

However, his wife behind him hesitated for a moment and said:

"When I went out to inquire about news this morning, I did see a young man this tall; does he look like this...?"

The woman briefly described his appearance, which confirmed to Gu Qinghan that it was Luo Mu.

Immediately, he pressed on:

"Where were they then? Take me there."

The woman showed a somewhat troubled expression and looked at her husband, saying:

"You should be able to find it yourself; it's near a stadium in the distance."

"They were discussing something at the entrance at the time; I just glanced and left."

"Specific location?"

"Just turn right at the fourth intersection ahead, and you'll see that stadium."

"If you go now, they might still be nearby."

Gu Qinghan nodded, thanked her, and immediately rushed in that direction.

Ten minutes later, Gu Qinghan saw the stadium the woman had mentioned.

The huge sign had long since fallen, leaving only the dilapidated main gate still standing firm.

However, Gu Qinghan immediately noticed something was wrong.

Faint green poisonous fog was seeping from the windows and main entrance of this stadium.

This area originally had no poisonous fog, and only here did it exist, making it hard not to suspect it was intentional.

"Someone here can control the poisonous fog?"

Gu Qinghan immediately thought of this possibility, then looked at the building surrounded by poisonous fog.

In this situation, the strength of a Professional who can control poison would definitely be greatly enhanced.

So, was this stadium meant to trap people, or to defend against outsiders breaking in?

Gu Qinghan understood that hesitation was useless at this point; he just needed to follow the Bear King inside to find out.

Although he himself was not afraid of these toxins, he also needed to guard against potential dangers hidden within the poisonous fog.

But only after the Bear King crashed through the stadium's main gate did Gu Qinghan realize that the poisonous fog here actually enveloped the entire stadium.

Coupled with a thickness of dozens of meters, it was almost impossible for a normal person to break through this layer of poisonous fog.

This was like a giant cage, separating the inside and outside worlds.

Fortunately, the Bear King was sturdy enough to pass directly through this poisonous fog.

And not long after passing through, Gu Qinghan saw a somewhat disheveled team.

It was Luo Mu and his group.

Seeing Gu Qinghan again, Luo Mu was visibly excited, but he couldn't hide the paleness on his face.

Gu Qinghan frowned, and only after confirming that Luo Mu was just overly exhausted did he ask:

"What happened to you all? Why are you trapped here?"

Luo Mu gritted his teeth, pointing at the poisonous fog that resembled a cage, and said:

"Yesterday, we heard that there was a Professional nearby who could control poison, so we thought of finding him to see if he could help you."

"But after we found them today, they made us pay two magic crystals at the entrance, and once we entered, we were trapped by the suddenly appearing poisonous fog."

Gu Qinghan pondered for a moment, looking at the massive amount of poisonous fog around, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled:

"Even if the other party can control poison, such a large-scale poisonous fog wouldn't be easily manipulated by him, would it?"

It was a joke; if a Professional of level ten or so could easily mobilize so much poisonous fog, then An City would be his backyard.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Luo Mu, these poisonous fogs must have appeared very quickly around them, not giving Luo Mu much reaction time.

Luo Mu also shook his head; to be honest, he hadn't expected such a situation to occur either.

Suddenly, he looked behind Gu Qinghan and asked in confusion:

"Where's Sister Yuting? Didn't she come in with you?"

Gu Qinghan pursed his lips and briefly explained Chen Yuting's situation.

Luo Mu's expression froze on his face; although he hadn't spent much time with Chen Yuting, he had already come to regard her as half a sister-in-law.

With his understanding of Gu Qinghan, how could he not see the subtle feelings between them?

But very quickly, he asked again:

"Do you really believe everything Sister Yuting said? Like the Time travel (transmigration)..."

"Yes, because after she reappeared, I noticed her eyes were clearly off."

"That feeling was like seeing an important person after a long time... And, look at this."

As Gu Qinghan spoke, he casually summoned a Berserker Skeleton beside him.

At this moment, the skeleton's appearance was completely different from before.

Previously, they all wore thick armor, and their color was darker; from the outside, they even looked no different from real people.

But now, its armor had turned into pale white Bone Spike.

At the edges of the Bone Spike, there were ferocious and sharp Bone Spikes, and even its face was completely exposed, allowing one to see the fiercely burning soul fire in its eye sockets at a glance.

Even the weapon in its hand had turned into a huge axe that looked like it was ground from white bones.

Luo Mu was completely stunned; such a skeleton looked several times more visually impactful than before!
