Passing through the dense black fog, Yang Yu joined up with the main force.
Under the command of Ikaro Flo and other members of [Collecting Corpses in Coffins], the expedition team captured and purified the powerful spirits that rushed over from all around in an orderly manner.
Without Yang Yu's roaming and command, the organization would occasionally encounter some problems, but there were many capable people participating in this crusade. Even if there were small problems, those people could stop them before the problems escalated.
Thanks to this great fortune, the team suffered almost no casualties and remained intact.
Yang Yu was very satisfied with this. He immediately threw himself into the battle, wandering around the edge of the team, injuring the attacking spirits one by one, without giving any further commands.
Icaro Flo could sense the direction from which Yang Yu and the others were coming. There was a powerful spirit there. Just as he was about to speak, Yang Yu told Icaro Flo not to waste time and energy on the spirit, and to wait until the spirit really decided to attack before launching the attack.
The powerful spirit remained in the black fog and showed no signs of attacking. Ikaro Flo decided to follow Yang Yu's advice and withdraw his attention from the spirit.
Iyas pulled the bowstring, and an arrow of light formed in her hand.
With the help of the flower basket to complete the lock, Iyas's light arrow cut through the sky.
The spirit that Iyas locked onto was Zero Shu. The light arrows created a storm in the black fog, and countless spirits were annihilated in an instant. However, this strong holy light was easily avoided by Zero Shu.
After arriving at Iyas's side and explaining the situation, Iyas followed Yang Yu's advice and ignored Ling Shu. She continued to detonate her holy light in the vast black fog to disperse the black fog.
As time passed, the black fog that covered the sky became shorter.
Bai Jin, flying in the sky, overlooked the earth. The black fog that covered the entire mountain began to shrink, and barren land was exposed in some places.
The speed at which the black fog creates stitched black birds also slows down as the black fog weakens.
The number was reduced from being too overwhelming at the beginning to a level that even half of the magician troops could handle it easily.
Leaving half of the people to deal with the black birds that were flying over, Bai Jin led the rest of the people to concentrate and chant magic.
Several huge magic circles formed in the sky. Almost at the same time, flashing electric currents burst out from all the magic circles. Terrifying thunderbolts fell from the sky and exploded in the black fog.
As magic attacked, the black mist continued to surge, as if it had consciousness, shrinking and standing still, trying to avoid the magic that was striking them.
However, lightning magic is extremely fast, and even if the black fog uses all its strength, it cannot stop the lightning from exploding in the black fog.
A large number of weak spirits were transformed into tiny points of shining light by the damage caused by the falling lightning and disappeared completely.
Some spirits burrowed into the ground to hide, but unexpectedly, the magic spells penetrated the ground and completely destroyed them.
After the unremitting efforts of the magician troops, the black fog was shrinking rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seizing the opportunity, the expedition team took the initiative to attack the black fog all around.
The black fog was unable to escape and the spirits within it fled madly.
The expedition team pursued cautiously, and while ensuring their own safety, they swung the holy light and magic in their hands to disperse the black fog and destroy the powerful spirits within.
Time flies like a white horse, and it’s over in the blink of an eye.
The sky was just getting light, and the night had not yet completely retreated. Only a few clusters of black mist remained on the ground, constantly jumping and shivering.
Some spirits emerged from the black fog and attacked the expedition team, but they could no longer cause trouble to Yang Yu and his team.
After confirming that the remaining black fog could no longer pose a threat to the team, Yang Yu gave the order:
"Rest where you are. Those whose names I called, go scout the caves we dug yesterday."
Hearing Yang Yu's voice, several soldiers who were barely strong enough collapsed to the ground. It felt like this battle had exhausted all the energy of their entire lives.
The others breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Many people did not rest immediately. They did not know whether it was a good idea to rest like this. They also gradually realized the intention of the Curse Cult to send out the black fog.
If the Curse Cult is really stalling for time, we must not waste time here.
Several people suggested that Yang Yu immediately enter the cave and wipe out the Curse Cult, but Yang Yu dissuaded them with a few words and they just stayed where they were to rest.
With the panel, no one knows the situation of everyone present better than Yang Yu.
Health points and magic power can be replenished through various potions, but mental fatigue cannot be cured by potions, especially for those who have lost their companions who they have been with day and night. They must be comforted and allowed to turn their grief and anger into strength.
He found a few magicians and psychics who were in good mental state and asked them to investigate the situation of the hole made by Bai Jin under the leadership of Iyas. Yang Yu called the liaison officer and quickly contacted the officials of the Teren Republic through the crystal ball to inform them of what had just happened.
There are many matters that need to be dealt with in the capital of the Republic of Terun. In the past two days, every official has been unable to sleep or eat and is exhausted.
Just pacifying the people and dispatching personnel are enough to give them a headache, not to mention the possible landing of the evil dragon's offspring, the coming of the devil and so on.
Despite being tired, upon hearing the call from Yang Yu, the officials of the Republic of Terun gathered together as much as possible to listen to Yang Yu's report.
When hearing the injury figures, many officials of the Republic of Tren frowned.
The area that Yang Yu and his team were heading to was in a relatively closed mountain area. They had already lost so many people before they even entered and saw the believers of the Curse Sect. If something really happened in the territory of the Curse Sect, they would most likely be wiped out.
Many officials remained silent, and began to waver as to whether they should continue to fight against the curse sect.
At this moment, Usger asked Yang Yu:
"Can we continue?"
Yang Yu replied, "It should be OK. But the soldiers are already very tired from fighting in a state of high tension and fear. I decided to let them rest for a while before attacking. Is that ok?"
"You are the commander-in-chief. You have the final say there."
"If you have reinforcements, please send them over immediately. I will make a conspicuous mark at the entrance of the cave."
"We're already gathering them. They should be here by noon today."
"That's fine. One more thing. Everyone here is very brave. Even if the crusade fails in the end, don't blame them. They have done a good job. Many things to come will require their fighting power."
"Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
“Just a mention.
Because of the demon's attack, he blamed the original expedition team for not using their full strength.
There are many such people.
If the heroes are discouraged, no one will stand up in the future."
"I see.
You said so
The next crusade
How sure are you?" Usger asked.
Other officials of the Terun Republic also turned sideways, waiting for Yang Yu's answer.
Yang Yu just smiled and said, "I can't make a conclusion without seeing them. It's possible that we can win 0-10 or 10-10. There is no sure-fire way to win, so I asked you to consider the possibility that we might fail."
