119: A catastrophic fog landscape, the Crimson Dream Fog!
Su Lie met Xuxu's fervent gaze. He pretended to be nonchalant, putting his hands in his pockets, looking up at the golden patterns on the nearby wall, and feigning discomfort, he said, "Ugh! I feel so sticky! And there's a smell of... bugs..."
"Master! Please allow Xuxu to help you clean your clothes!"
Xuxu stood up, winked at Su Lie, and said with a smile.
"Mhm!"
Su Lie nodded in satisfaction and turned to walk up the winding staircase.
When he arrived on the first floor.
Su Keqing and Su Liya were already waiting beside the Solid Wood Bed.
They had prepared freshly boiled Exorcism Holy Water for Su Lie.
Upon seeing the divine radiance emanating from Su Lie, the two women's eyes shone brightly, and they quickly bowed sweetly, "Master!"
"Let's go! Big Sisters! I can't manage him all by myself, let's all go together!"
Xuxu winked at Su Keqing and the other woman.
Su Keqing's cheeks flushed, and she nodded repeatedly, "Mhm, mhm! This is a perfect chance to try out the new towels we sewed!"
Su Liya proactively followed them, "Master! I've been pondering a technique; please grant me your guidance!"
As the four entered the washroom.
Rustling sounds came from the grass outside the Shelter wall.
Seeing this, the Little Skeleton fired several Soul Fire Bullets toward the source of the sound.
The sound quickly died down.
Meanwhile, at the edge of the Gravity Oasis where the Shelter was located.
Red Mist actually illuminated the night sky, and like a living creature, it was slowly creeping toward the Shelter within the Gravity Oasis.
Intense streaks of white light were fiercely flashing at the dark boundary between the red Mist and the Gravity Oasis.
These white lights resembled lightning but made no sound.
Just like that.
Two hours later.
Su Lie walked out of the washroom feeling completely refreshed.
At this point, his experience points increased from 855 to 1055.
When he returned to the Solid Wood Bed, he noticed a patch of red in the night sky.
Su Lie quickly put on his equipment and headed outside.
Su Liya, who had just changed into simple cloth clothes, saw this and immediately followed him.
However.
She ran with some difficulty, as if her legs were injured.
By the time Su Lie reached the top of the courtyard wall.
He discovered.
A large amount of glowing red Mist had already spread throughout the Gravity Oasis.
The plants covered by this Mist seemed to have undergone some incredible transformation.
"What is that?"
Su Lie muttered in a low voice.
This change gave him a bad feeling.
He took out the Eye of Identification and aimed it at the vast, glowing red Mist several kilometers away.
Buzz!
In the blink of an eye, a light flashed within the Eye of Identification.
Information about the red Mist appeared within it.
[Scarlet Dream Mist: Calamity-level Mist landscape, a phantom dream Mist of an unnameable existence. All life drawn into it will undergo some uncontrollable mutation. Even if consciousness remains clear, they will be pulled into the Entering Dream. Only existences possessing the authority of a deity can find a way out of the dream. Note: This Scarlet Dream Mist is pervasive but cannot enter completely sealed rooms.]
"Hiss!"
Su Lie couldn't help but gasp upon seeing this, and immediately ordered Su Liya beside him, "Command all Little Skeletons to return to the Shelter! When they return, they must completely seal the glass doors of the sunroom dome!"
The sunroom dome possesses the characteristic of God-level sealing, which should be sufficient to block the penetration of the Scarlet Dream Mist.
Furthermore.
The main structure of the Shelter has the special effect of Aura Isolation.
This effectively prevents the life aura within the Shelter from leaking out.
This can prevent any beings that might exist within the Scarlet Dream Mist from sensing the life aura inside the Shelter, thereby avoiding unpredictable crises.
Hence.
He issued this command.
Afterward.
Su Lie quickly descended the wall and went to the Pigsty.
"Father! Some unknown danger is approaching outside!"
Su Dabao said solemnly.
Croak! Croak! Croak!
The Treasure-Swallowing Golden Toad immediately croaked twice, transmitting via Spirit communication: "Big Brother! Let's all transfer inside the Shelter!"
"Mhm! That's exactly why I came here!"
Su Lie nodded, "You follow Su Dabao and stay in the Shelter's Sacrifice Garden!"
"Father! Don't worry! I will take good care of them!"
Su Dabao used his mouth to open the pigpen and led the 39 chicks and 2 piglets toward the Shelter.
By the time Su Lie walked out of the Pigsty, the 184 Little Skeletons guarding the city wall had successively returned to the Shelter.
After all the Little Skeletons had returned to the Shelter.
Su Liya insisted on checking all the doors again, and only after confirming they were closed did she descend from the wall.
At this moment.
Looking out from the Shelter courtyard, the red light grew brighter and brighter.
Su Liya paused, and solemnly asked Su Lie, who was waiting for her, "Master! The Vegetable Garden and the spiritual field..."
Su Lie pulled Su Liya through the Shelter door, and while closing the door, he said carelessly, "The seeds have all been collected! If there are any losses, we'll just lose a batch of vegetables and grain, that's all!"
"Mhm!"
Su Liya's cheeks were slightly red, and she lowered her head, her heart pounding.
After returning to the Shelter.
Su Lie allowed the Little Skeletons on duty to rest in the space outside the second-floor war room.
He, meanwhile, went to the Watchtower.
Standing on the top floor of the Watchtower.
Through the Invisibility window, he saw the Scarlet Dream Mist getting closer and closer to the Shelter.
This glowing Mist seemed to have come specifically for the Shelter.
It actually formed a siege around the Shelter.
Su Lie observed for about twenty minutes.
The Scarlet Dream Mist quickly enveloped the Shelter.
Inside the Mist.
Su Lie saw glowing spiritual bodies, like souls, densely forming this massive Scarlet Dream Mist.
At the same time, he heard whimpering wails, terrifying cries for help, and all sorts of other sounds.
After observing for a moment.
Su Lie sighed and turned to walk downstairs.
He had already issued a strict order, forbidding anyone from leaving the Shelter and going into the courtyard.
After returning to the Solid Wood Bed.
Su Lie had the Little Skeleton bring two purification water buckets.
The insect salt in the buckets had completely purified the contamination aura of the Source Insect Secret Demon.
The insect salt was now usable by humans.
Only then did Su Lie enter the Chat Group.
[Current Survivor Count: 13.9 billion]
"Another billion people died!"
Su Lie sighed; the number of Survivors was dwindling rapidly.
He entered the chat page.
He saw.
The earliest few pages were filled with trading questions and answers.
Upon reaching the pages covering the current night.
Su Lie discovered that he wasn't the only one experiencing this Calamity-level disaster; almost all Survivors had encountered disasters of varying severity.
It seemed only the type of disaster he faced was unique.
"Holy crap! Brothers! We have an earthquake here! The walls I just built yesterday all collapsed, only the upgradable Shelter is fine!"
"You got an earthquake! Brother! I'm dealing with a damn flood here! The water is past my knees, what should I do? Should I run away? But it's night! Emergency help!"
"Idiot! In this situation, you should quickly run to the roof of the Shelter! Use your wood to make a raft!"
"Waaah! Waaah! I'm about to be roasted alive! I suddenly have a volcano erupting here! Half of my Shelter is buried in lava, and I can't get out! Luckily my Shelter has the Indestructible special effect, or else I'd be saying goodbye to you all!"
"It looks like a collective event tonight! I'm slightly better off; only two meteorites fell next to my Shelter, shaking half of it down and destroying a field I was growing outside!"
"Haha! You guys have terrible luck! I'm perfectly fine! It's quiet outside! Awesome!"
"Don't celebrate too soon! Others are facing geological disasters, but if you run into a beast tide or a monster tide..."
"Holy crap! Did your mouth get blessed or something? Shit! My Shelter is being hit by something unknown... Holy crap! I'm going to die..."
... Looking at the dense stream of messages.
Su Lie summarized a piece of intelligence and immediately posted it in the group: "Everyone! These disasters must be appearing based on our individual strengths!"
As soon as he said this.
The next second, hundreds of millions of inquiries instantly flooded the chat...
