"Something's wrong."
After arriving at the island town, Rogge spoke and stretched out his hand.
The sky was gloomy, as if covered with a layer of coal dust rags, and countless gray fluff was floating in the air, like a twilight snow.
"This town seems to have been deserted for some time."
Lina came to a pile of ashes, frowned slightly, and spoke softly.
Then she noticed something in front of her.
"Rogge, Yas, look at that."
Rogge and others looked in the direction of the sound.
In the center of the town, countless gray floating fibers were piled up in clusters, surrounding an altar-like building, on which a ball of gray dim flame was burning. It looked extremely strange.
[Twilight Flame]
[Explanation: The final burning of life is the fuel for the twilight flame, which will continuously provide power to its source.]
Twilight flame
Roger frowned.
Considering the situation on the island, this ball of twilight flame seems to be the root cause of the island's lifelessness.
Those ashes are probably the transformation of the islanders.
This made Roger take a deep breath and feel a little headache.
He originally came to Dusk Bayses to rest, but he didn't expect that the island was now dead silent and there was no one in sight.
Who did this again
Pagan? Or a supernatural being? Or some kind of supernatural creature
"Forget it, let's leave here and find an island with people."
At this moment, Rogge had no intention of tracing the source. He planned to find an island to rest first, and search for extraordinary materials and look for opportunities for promotion.
So, everyone boarded the Green to the next island of Dusk Byses.
…
However, before the Green had time to travel far, it ran into trouble.
In the distance from the Green, a group of strange gray ships were approaching, carrying thick gray embers.
On top of these ships, there were some terrifying creatures made of floating cotton wool, looking like ghosts. They had strange lights flashing in their eyes and were staring at the Green.
[Twilight Soul]
[Type: Monster]
[Quality: Elite]
[Level: 28]
[Rank: Extraordinary]
[Explanation: The twilight soul wandering on the sea is made up of gray floating cotton. Perhaps it is that strange power that supports its human form.]
"Okay, I'll deliver it to your door."
Roger sneered.
He had no intention of getting involved in this matter and wanted to understand the situation first.
Unexpectedly, trouble came knocking on my door.
In this case, Rogge certainly won't sit idly by and wait for death.
call out!
Rogge gave a slight signal with his eyes, and Nomi bent his bow and drew his arrows. Three arrows flew quickly towards the fleet in the distance.
However, the bows and arrows penetrated these twilight creatures, and the ships beneath them actually had the properties of floating catkins, so the arrows had no effect at all.
"Huh..."
In the ghost fleet, the leading ghost raised his hand and let out a hoarse roar.
It is commanding the fleet to charge towards the Green!
call!
The twilight fleet was like a number of sharp gray cones, coming menacingly amidst the flying catkins.
"Please... prepare to fight!"
Rogge shouted, then drew out the Jinmu, and with a wave of his hand, the blade instantly ignited with blazing spiritual flames.
The rest of the people also took out their weapons and prepared for battle.
…
[You killed the Dusk Soul and gained combat experience. ]
With a wave of his hand, Rogge swung the brocade wooden sword burning with spiritual flames and cut off the last Dusk Soul, burning it to ashes.
Lina also retracted the dagger in her hand and looked at the melting gray fluff.
"It seems that the entire Twilight Baises Islands are likely to be infected by this strange force."
She looked ahead at the still uninhabited island.
"Rogge, what should we do now?"
She inquired.
After thinking for a moment, Rogge made a decision: "Let's move on. Now that we have come this far, let's see who is behind this."
If Dusk Byses cannot be resupplied, then they will have no choice but to head to other islands.
But the other islands are far away and require a long sailing distance.
…
"Captain, there is a fishing boat not far away."
Nomi put down the telescope and said to Rogge.
"I saw it." Rogge nodded. As a superhuman, he had excellent eyesight. It was a normal ship with people on it. "Pull the boat over."
Soon, the Green approached the ship.
The people on the fishing boat seemed very happy to see the arrival of the Green.
Both sides soon stopped.
"Good afternoon, dear Captain. I am Elberto, a fisherman."
When he saw Rogge, he seemed very excited, his eyes shining, like an innocent man who saw a life-saving straw.
Roger narrowed his eyes and chuckled meaningfully.
"Oh? Fishermen?"
"Why are you the only one around here? Where are the other islanders on the Dusk Baises Islands?"
Hearing this, Elberto looked disappointed: "I don't know either. I just came back from outside. I don't know why Baises suddenly became like this..."
“However, before I left, I saw other islanders heading to the main island. I don’t know what happened there.”
He sighed.
"Main island? What do the islanders go to the main island for?" Nomi was a little confused when she heard this, and she began to guess the reason behind this matter.
However, Roger nodded at him and then smiled inexplicably.
"So, you want to lure us to the main island, right?"
Roger stared into his eyes and said.
When Elberto on the opposite side heard this, his pupils shrank slightly and his face froze for a moment.
But he quickly adjusted himself so that no one could tell anything was wrong.
"Captain, what do you mean by this... I don't quite understand..."
Elberto pretended to be confused and forced a smile.
Swish!
Rogge didn't waste any words with him and slashed out with the Jinmu sword wrapped in spiritual flame.
An arm fell off.
However, surprisingly, the arm fell to the ground and turned into a ball of floating cotton in an instant.
There was no blood coming out of Elberto's wound, but a gray mass.
Seeing this, Elberto's smiling face gradually disappeared, and he became expressionless: "Haha, you are worthy of being an apostle-level transcendent. You can easily see through my disguise. It's amazing."
"How did you find out?"
"I thought you were someone special, but you're so cunning and even the bait you throw out is low-quality stuff."
Roger sneered.
The guy in front of him didn't understand yet, but he was exposed the moment he was seen by Rogge.
The name of the "Dusk Deceiver" was so conspicuous that Rogge couldn't help but see it.
However, this guy's strength is too low, at best he is semi-supernormal, and he is definitely a bait.
Look, after just a few words, he couldn't wait to bare his dangerous fangs towards Rogge.
"Tell me, who are you and why are you doing all this?"
Roger stared at him.
Elberto on the opposite side did not say anything, but just gave Rogge a creepy smile.
"Want to know the truth?"
"Then let's go to the main island, hehe..."
Seeing this, Rogge didn't waste any words with him. He just raised his hand and chopped the bait to pieces.
"This guy actually pretended to be a human to deceive us. How despicable!"
Nomi said angrily. She was stunned by being deceived just now and even felt sorry for this guy.
"He went to great lengths to lure us to the main island. There must be a trap there."
Lina said with a frown.
Roger's eyes were calm: "Since he wants us to go so much, then let's go and take a look."
Dusk Baises, the main island.
It looked like snow was falling from the sky here.
However, the "snow" here is actually gray floating flakes in the air, and it is much thicker.
They piled up in the air and covered the ground, making the entire main island look eerie and dark.
The Green was docked at the pier.
Here, they finally saw other ships.
However, these boats were covered with dust and fluff, and it was obvious that no one had used them for a long time.
"Huh..."
A large group of Dusk Spirits wandered aimlessly on the dock.
They came to greet Rogge.
"Are you sure? Don't let this guy trick you."
Lina looked at him.
Rogge smiled slightly, jumped off the boat and landed on the main island.
To him, nothing was too dangerous, only too troublesome.
Then, without any hesitation, he lifted up the illusory black stone with one hand and infused it with mental power.
Buzz—
An invisible force exploded, and Rogge raised his hand and clenched it.
call!
The sky is full of floating catkins flying wildly.
The power of illusion and reality alternated, and in a moment, a monster figure solidified.
In the end, a monster with a shrunken but extremely thin body, skin and bones, and two protruding eyeballs was strangled by Rogge and struggled desperately.
[Twilight Messenger]
[Type: Dependent]
[Quality: Lord]
[Level: 50]
[Rank: Agent]
[Description: Leading priests, cunning and treacherous subordinate creatures, they are born from the power of dusk.]
"Damn it! Let me go!"
"How did you do that? This is impossible!"
The monster's voice was shrill and piercing, and it was unbelievable.
It couldn't believe that all its heavy arrangements were so vulnerable in front of the man in front of it.
He just stretched out his hand and I was caught without any resistance.
This is simply unbelievable!
sieve!
Spiritual flames rose and spread along Rogue's arm to the entire body of the monster.
In an instant, the monster began to wail in the spiritual flames and died miserably.
Bang.
A charred body fell to the ground, lifeless.
The illusory power on Rogge's body also faded away instantly, and he let out a breath.
[You killed the Dusk Messenger and gained combat experience.]
[Your level has reached the upper limit of the current rank. You can upgrade your rank to improve your level. ]
[Please select the direction to use the overflow experience.]
Rogge chose to upgrade his skill level.
Then he looked up at the sky.
The gray floating cotton wool in the sky stopped.
These gray fluff began to disappear quickly like the tide.
"Is it the person behind the scenes?" Lina frowned slightly. She didn't expect the battle to end so quickly. "Why didn't you give him a break to ask him about the details?"
Hearing this, Roger smiled but said nothing.
If we leave it alive, maybe it will be Rogge who dies soon...
If it weren't for the illusory black stone that gave him powerful abilities while also offsetting his rank power, he would most likely not be a match for this guy.
Besides, this is this guy's home ground, and if we're not careful, it might run away.
"Now we can go in and take a look."
As he spoke, he squatted down and picked up the dropped items beside the body of the Duskbringer.
[You obtained: Dusk Eyeball x 1. ]
[You obtained: Dusk Sacrifice Slate x 1. ]
After Roger examined the two items, he handed the slate to Mira.
"Look at this."
He couldn't understand the words and symbols on it, so he could only give it to Mira to read.
Instead, he checked the information of [Twilight Eyeball].
Well, it can be used as material, and can also be used as a key component of some special rituals...
Roger was thinking.
Mira behind him suddenly spoke up: "It's the Eye of Twilight."
Roger turned and looked at her.
"They are preparing a ritual for something called the 'Eye of Twilight.'"
"this… "
Mira frowned again.
"… They use living people as sacrifices to this thing called the 'Eye of Twilight'!"
"Twilight Eyes?"
"Could it be another evil god?"
Roger frowned.
I encountered another bad luck.
call-
Just as everyone was stopping, something strange happened.
The gray fluff that had originally stopped suddenly began to fly wildly again at this moment.
Shockingly, the island below them also began to relax rapidly.
Then, it began to slowly rotate, as if it was going to sweep them to the center of the island!
"No, let's go!"
Rogge suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly reminded the others.
Everyone hurried towards the Green.
Fortunately, the spreading and rotating speed of the floating catkins was not too fast, and they still had time to react.
But Rogge saw with his own eyes that the corpse of the Dusk Messenger on the ground was slowly assimilated into gray floating cotton by this mysterious force and sank into it.
Wow!
A ash storm began to form.
This spread from the entire island, and the entire sky was dyed gray.
"Luckily we escaped, the entire island no longer exists."
Nomi looked at the main island in front of him and said with fear.
“Stay away from here!”
Roger watched all this calmly.
The Green quickly turned and sailed away from the main island of Dusk Baises.
Just after they left, the main island turned into a gray tornado.
In the center of the storm, there seemed to be a huge purple-gray circular object that was emitting power.
That's the source!
It's the "Eye of Twilight"!
I don't know if the death of the Duskbringer stimulated it, but it erupted silently.
