Chapter 636 Cap 634: Impossible To Have A Smooth Trip Part 2(Chapter Preview)

Name:Will Of Chaos Author:
After the cloud of poisonous birds passed, did we go our separate ways, did we encounter aerial monsters a few more times? None of them as numerous as those black birds from before.

On the second night, we had to blast a hole through the poison clouds to get to the ground, the poisonous rain that started in the afternoon was still in full swing but Joseph knew where we should go so we only stayed 10 or 15 minutes in the rain poisonous before arriving at a stone hut.

As soon as we enter the stone hut Joseph throws some more silver coins into a magic circle on the wall which activates after absorbing the coins, so three spells were active.

The first was a barrier against physical attacks, the second was a barrier with detox effects and the third was an Illusory barrier.

"< Wash >" (I)

"< Dry >" (I)

"< Detoxing Light >" (I)

I use some spells to make the place cleaner and get rid of any traces of poison while Joseph lights up the room with a magical stone of light.

I look around and see some simple beds and some chairs, much the same as in the cave last night.

I sit on one of the beds and realize it's not comfortable, so I use my lines to make a bed for myself like in the old days when I was still a Goblin.

"Want me to create one for you too?" (I)

"I would very much appreciate that generosity." (Joseph)

"Alright, it's no effort at all." (I)

I created a bed of webs for Joseph too.

"Is this rain going to last long?" (I)

"I hope not, hopefully in the morning the sky will be clear again, it would make our trip much better." (Joseph)

"Why is this place so poisonous?" (I)

"I understand a monster being poisonous or even some plants containing poison, but I can't understand how everything in this great forest can be poisonous, even the weather being poisonous is already too much for me to understand." (I)

"This forest became like this as a result of the battle of an ancient Demon King and a Hero, this was millennia ago before the World Tree was in this forest." (Joseph)

"For those who have a lot of power, their battles can leave permanent marks on the environment." (Joseph)

"(A battle that can change an entire environment...)" (I)

I couldn't help but think of the level of destruction of such a battle to create such an aggressive environment, what was the power level of this Hero and the Demon King? Why were they fighting?

I had a few questions in my head, but they were irrelevant, the only thing that mattered was the fact that such a fight was able to change the environment of an entire forest of that size.

It reminds me of the mountain that disappeared when the Fairy Kings fought the Heretic God of Corpses in the mountain range.

That day they weren't even fighting in the real world from what I heard from Vanessa and Nix, but even then only a minor repercussion of the battle made a giant mountain disappear as if it never existed.

"(How far does the power level of this world go?)" (I)

"(If someone like that came after me or the people beside me, would I be able to protect my family and friends?)" (I)

Once again I realized that I'm still weak, I had heard several times that people from the Morr Continent and the Dark Continent are weaker than the other continents.

Elsaris told me this, Vanessa told me this and even Nix told me this, it worries me that the Church of Light can have people of that level of strength and they will change those people behind me one day.

"(When I leave this continent I will have to be even more discreet.)" (I)

"Are you okay?" (Joseph)

"..." (I)

I look at Joseph, question looking at me strangely, his question didn't get me out of my thoughts.

Sigh

"I'm fine, I just got lost in my thoughts momentarily, this is something that happens often." (I)

After that, he and I chatted a bit, then to pass the time we played some card games before bed.

------------

The next morning the poison rain had stopped, but unfortunately, the weather was still cloudy with those macabre clouds full of poison.

Also, the smell of poison is very strong everywhere, and pools of poison were everywhere, this would be a nightmare for someone who didn't have a way to deal with so much poison, but for me, it was just a strange smelling place.

Joseph and I went back to flying on our respective mounts, according to him we should arrive at our destination the following night.

Late in the morning we suddenly noticed something, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and in a few minutes the wind got so strong that the flying monsters started to be blown away by the wind, but of course, that wouldn't bother Ragnar or a Hippogriff who continued flying.

It was at that moment that a tornado formed, a green tornado, it was a poison tornado, but the worst was not that, the worst was that it wasn't just one tornado, there were dozens.

"Why do these things always have to happen!?" (I)

The tornadoes weren't just pulling us in, they were concentrating the area's venom in one place making it hard to breathe.

"< Cyclic Barrier >" (I)

I create a barrier around me and Ragnar who is spinning with a powerful wind magic, with that I manage to ward off the poison and give Ragnar the opportunity to fly between the tornadoes which took 30 minutes due to the large number and strength of the tornadoes, but in the last tornado suddenly a green tentacle came out of the tornado trying to cling to us, luckily the barrier defended but it broke.

As soon as the spinning tornado pulled that tentacle in again, I took this opportunity to get away as quickly as possible, when we leave the tornado area I stand next to Joseph.

"What was that?" (I)

"I'm not sure, but it could be a poisonous slime." (Joseph)

"That was too big to be a slime." (I)

"Should be a Great Poison Slime, they form when dozens or hundreds of Slimes come together." (Joseph)

"(A defense mechanism like schools of small fish?)" (I)

Some small fish in my ancient world gather in large schools to ward off predators, Joseph probably means that Slimes do something similar.

After the tornadoes the trip was pretty smooth, probably the tornadoes scared the monsters in the area that hid.
