Chapter 144: Chapter 143: Mutation in the Night

When Xu Xin gazed out from the treehouse window, Keke didn’t see the hill engulfed by the Red Mist.

This Red Mist must have started to spread after nightfall.

Wherever the eye could see, the outer hills were surrounded by a faint layer of Red Mist.

The entire Hilly Resource Zone seemed to be enclosed by thick walls of Red Mist, completely obscuring the interior.

And the area where the red was most concentrated was right at the entrance of the mine in front of them.

Because the surrounding Red Mist wall was formed by this mine, this ”gigantic mouth” spewing outward.

Xu Xin noticed that in the ”eye sockets” of the ”giant,” there was a flickering white glow, as if a pair of open eyes were watching Xu Xin standing before it.

”White glowing light?”

Xu Xin remembered that deep inside the mine, the giant cave emitted this glowing white light. And they had discussed it in [Explorers], the light in the depths of others’ caves was also white.

Could there be high-level resources there?

Xu Xin used his identifying ability to look, but saw no light of any color.

It’s not a resource, so why does it glow?

Could it really be the eyes of this giant?

As he stared at the glowing spots, Xu Xin felt a tingle at the back of his neck and shifted his gaze to the resource zone inside the hill.

The resource zone was shrouded in red mist; to enter it, one would first have to enter this mist.

Xu Xin hesitated. The danger within the mist was unknown. Plus, he had to consider if inhaling the mist would affect him.

He knew inhaling the mist made him dizzy, but under the influence of Orange (Blue)’s Spiritual Power, the effect was minimal.

However, inhaling too much could still cause irreversible harm, like... mutating his body.

After all, this red mist had a substantial connection to the underground world, likely emanating from there.

”Hmph!” Keke exclaimed, pushing Xu Xin.

Keke sensed danger; it clearly didn’t want him to enter.

... better to retreat, since it’s not something that absolutely must be done—it doesn’t warrant risking danger for it.

As for the Chang Yin Family’s matters, we can plan it later. There’s no need to risk life exploring.

... speaking of which, isn’t this situation caused by their sacrifices at the altar!

Xu Xin swiped open his watch; both the regional channel and [Explorers] were silent.

Xu Xin asked in the group chat: ”Are there any abnormal occurrences in your cave?”

Someone quickly responded.

Zhao Xiaochuan: ”I’m at the cave now, feeling it’s quite eerie so I wanted to check again. There’s nothing unusual, just the scent emanating from the cave makes me giddy. No, I need to leave!”

Li Wenxi: ”My cave is far from the treehouse, so I don’t know if anything’s happening, what’s wrong, is there a problem on your side?”

Xu Xin frowned, suddenly realizing the Hilly Resource Zone was outside a three-kilometer range.

Xu Xin: ”Nothing, just a bit concerned.”

He then called Ji Chaoyang; after a few seconds, the call connected: ”What’s up Xu Xin?”

”Is there anything happening at your altar?”

”Altar?” Ji Chaoyang’s voice was puzzled, ”I’m not sure, I’m inside the treehouse right now.”

”Do you want to go check it out? I’ve encountered trouble here, the kind of red mist is spewing from the cave, surrounding the altar.”

”...” Footsteps were heard, then Ji Chaoyang spoke, ”From the window where I am, nothing seems unusual. I’ll go take a look at the altar; we’ll keep in touch.”

”Alright.”

Ending the call, Xu Xin stared at the mist-covered resource zone, deep in thought.

Ji Chaoyang also had a mount and could quickly reach the altar.

If nothing unusual was happening on his side, the situation here was likely caused by the Chang Yin Family’s sacrifice.

Perhaps they were within this Red Mist right now, at the altar!

As Xu Xin contemplated, Mimi suddenly took two steps forward. Before Xu Xin could react, it leapt forward and dashed into the Red Mist.

The bat, which had been resting on its back, flew down and flapped its wings twice, landing on Xu Xin’s shoulder.

Keke, lying on Silver King, glanced sideways at the bat but didn’t start fussing with this poor little creature.

”Ah...” Xu Xin attempted to stop Mimi but fell silent.

What shocked him unfolded.

As Mimi entered the mist-covered area, the ground it tread on cracked open, and numerous vines burst forth from the earth, launching a fierce attack on Mimi!

Even if Mimi didn’t unleash its swiftest speed, it was beyond the reach of these vines.
