The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 254 Despair is a fatal disease

It's not over yet!
Wilhelm used the reaction force of stepping on the white whale to gracefully flip in mid-air and come to the head of the white whale. He wielded the sharp sword with both hands, slashing from the nose to the cheek, and finally stabbed at the huge eye.

He buried his hands deeply into the white whale's left eye, then he immediately gave up the inserted sword, and slashed horizontally with both newly drawn blades, and then thrust them upwards.

As a result, the beluga's left eye was cut into four pieces and fell off.

Fin plus left eye.

This is the result of the battle between Zun Zun and Wilhelm.

With the tacit cooperation of the two, the white whale being toyed with can only be like a fish on a chopping board to be slaughtered. The difference in their combat power is not affected by the overwhelming difference in their bodies at all.

Pure meat target.

Just when Zun Zun was wondering, "Is there really no way I can deal with the white whale?", the huge whale's body trembled slightly, and after losing one of its fins and an eye, it seemed to accept the humiliating fact.

"Roar------!"

An explosive roar came out from the white whale's mouth full of dense teeth. Zun Zun's body was unstable and he almost fell down because the earth dragon under him was difficult to control.

The fish's fins were cut off and its eye was gouged out.

Rage dyed the remaining eye of the white whale blood red, and its gaze forced the punitive team that wanted to charge back. Then, it trembled all over in hatred and anger, and then its body began to change.

Zun Zun, who was extremely sensitive to magic, immediately realized that it was about to use its ultimate move.

"Fram, back off!"

"Yes!"

Without caring about her spoils, the maid drove the Earth Dragon 180 degrees and quickly left the White Whale.

Wilhelm did the same. He jumped off the whale's back and blew a whistle. A handsome earth dragon came running and carried him away quickly.

Then Zun Zun saw the white whale open its mouth.

No, that's not a precise description.

To be more precise, it was the pits all over the white whale's body that opened up at the same time, making a piercing sound.

“————Gah!”

Screams flooded into the brain. It was an inharmonious sound that was impossible to imagine coming from this world. It was more annoying than the sound of sharp fingernails scratching on a blackboard, polluting everyone's brains auditorily.

The victims were not limited to humans, but beasts such as earth dragons also curled up out of instinctive fear.

This is a class difference.

It's like a dragon, the pinnacle of living things, with absolute dominance over the lower-level beasts.

From the countless mouths that emitted the piercing sound, an astonishing amount of white mist gushed out and poured onto the plain in an instant, turning the world illuminated by the effect of driving away the night into a sea of white.

His vision was obscured and his whole body shrank.

Subconsciously, I understood that White Whale finally regarded the expedition team as an enemy.

Zun Zun also felt dizzy.

The Red Demons are actually quite sensitive to magic, and most of them use this ability to judge things and directions. However, on the streets shrouded in magical fog, Zun Zun couldn't tell the direction at all. He seemed to know why he couldn't defeat the White Whale.

The huge body of the white whale is swimming in the air, with its small mouth open, making discordant sounds, as if it is sneering at these tiny humans who are overestimating their own abilities and trying to challenge it.

The expedition team led by Zun Zun and Wilhelm had definitely inflicted a lot of damage on the white whale, cutting off one of its fins and gouging out one of its eyes. Even if they couldn't bring about a conclusion, at least they could look forward to the outcome of the battle.

but now--

"Oh no, it's fog!"

The white mist continued to scream, spreading mist from countless mouths. The mist that fell from the sky continued to increase in area, and the range spread to the outside of Jiedao.

The field of vision gradually turned white.

The effect of the magic stone that drives away the night is gradually lost.

Visibility deteriorated, and it was difficult for the expedition team to work closely together on the fog-covered plain. More importantly, the white whale itself seemed to have merged into the sea of fog and disappeared.

Zun Zun couldn't grasp its location at all.

"Your Majesty!"

"It's okay! Trust my luck!"

Fram was a little nervous and didn't know what to do. Zun Zun held her thin shoulders to encourage her. At the same time, the crown on his forehead began to shrink. With his luck constantly rising, he signaled to his maid not to run around like a headless fly, but to rush in a certain direction.

When the earth dragon started to flee, a thick fog rushed over where they had just stood. The fog came in huge waves, and if they were a little late to dodge, they would be swallowed up along with the earth dragon.

There's nothing to be afraid of with just a little fog.

If you haven't seen the real thing, you may be dismissive of it, but once you see it, you will realize how terrible the fog is.

The thick fog will dissolve the ground of the plain wherever it touches, and any matter will disappear into thin air. Even the human body will not escape the same fate if it is directly swallowed up by the fog.

It turned out to be the case.

The master nodded in understanding.

The white mist was no different from ordinary fog, and the magical power it contained was almost the same. In addition, there was no luck bonus, so he would definitely be swallowed up by the white mist if he was not careful.

Natsuki Subaru's strange behavior can also be explained.

The white whale known as the Monster of the Mist.

The nature of the fog can be roughly divided into two types. One is the diffusion type, which covers the entire street and expands the range of roaming and activities; the other is the annihilation type, which makes the entire land disappear right before your eyes.

The latter type of attack, which was accompanied by destructive nature, was a method of attack that had never been seen before, and its threat was obvious at a glance.

Needless to say, the destructive power.

But the effects don’t stop there.

Crusch waved away the dense fog, wiped his sweaty forehead, and took a deep breath while looking around at the assembled teams. "How many people are missing?"

"There are 12 people in my team, and only... 3 are left."

"Who's missing?"

"have no idea……!"

Facing the Duchess's anxious questioning, the middle-aged captain squeezed out a response and shook his head. He was not the only one.

“13 people left!”

"6 people!"

"8 people!"

“…One person.”

The same reports were submitted one after another. Every team leader could not remember the names of their missing companions. Even the team leader with only one person left bit his lower lip in pain. They were fighting side by side just now, but in the blink of an eye, he couldn't even remember the names of his companions... What a joke!
"——Mist of Destruction!"

Otto's molars were chattering and his body was shaking with fear.

As the name suggests, beings that disappear when encountering fog will have their memories of their existence erased along with them. The only thing left in this world is the fact that someone has disappeared, but their existence does not exist in anyone's memory.

……wrong.

It will also remain in Natsuki Subaru's memory.

But he was also feeling very uncomfortable and was equally frightened and at a loss. Natsuki Subaru finally understood the true nature of the horrifying fear that he had experienced in his previous reincarnations.

Although it was not appropriate to do so in such an occasion, everyone still spontaneously counted how many people had disappeared.

21 people.

The first wave of fog alone caused the expedition team to lose a small group of members. They didn't even know their names, pasts, or experiences, let alone have a way to erect a monument for them.

but--

"Do not be afraid!"

Crusch's voice pierced through the fog, and she shouted loudly: "From now on, the critical moment begins! Our attack worked on the white whale, and the feeling in your hands has proved it! It is indeed very powerful and unexpected. If we die, in the worst case, there may be no trace left! But-"

She drew her sword and held it high to the sky.

"For the dead whose names cannot even be left on their tombstones, for the weak who will be exposed to the threat of the fog in the future world, we must defeat it even if it means sacrificing our lives! Follow me!"

"Oh oh oh————!"
Everyone raised their weapons to the sky and shouted.

At the same time, under Crusch’s command, Ferris stuffed the magic stone into the barrel, and with the sound of an explosion, the magic stone was shot into the sky above the fog.

The radiance of the magic stone that shattered in the sky cleared away the white fog that obscured the vision in one go.

It does not dispel all the fog that fills the plains, but only reduces the concentration of the fog to resolve the situation where it is difficult to maintain vision.

But even this alone has a significant effect.

The white whale's fog is formed by the mutation of its huge magic power. In other words, it spreads its huge magic power to form fog.

The original effect of the magic stone is to force the surrounding magic power to return to non-attribute or invalidate, but using the power of this magic stone can make the magic power filled with fog become harmless and dispel it.

If the magic-repelling stone was too powerful, there would be a risk of weakening the power of Zun Zun and the others' magical attacks, but since the residual mist could still be seen, there was no need to worry about that aspect.

Just right for the current situation!

The moment Zun Zun noticed that the fog had become thinner and his senses were no longer disturbed by the magic, he suddenly locked onto the white whale about 30 meters above and to the side of him.

"Light of Saber!"

“——Gah!”

Lightning shot out again, tearing open the white whale's huge body. The wound on its left fin had healed quietly, but the lost fin could never grow back.

I feel particularly jealous when I see my enemies.

The white whale howled again with bloodshot eyes. The high-pitched cry sounded like a woman's scream, and the disgust that surged up made people want to cover their ears. It sounded like a roar and a laugh, a completely different weirdness in the dimension, carrying the turbulent fog back and forth.

Licking the plains.

"Ah...ah...!"

Before he could react, Zun Zun found that Fram was covering her ears in pain, her little face wrinkled and she kept slapping her ears, as if she wanted to swat something out of her head.

"Fram!?"

"It's something like magic intoxication. Maybe the white whale used the sound just now and the fog to directly interfere with the mind!"

The one who explained to him was Rem, who had rushed over at some point, and she also had a distressed expression on her face.

But compared to Rem and Fram, the other soldiers were in greater pain. Some were foaming at the mouth, rolling their eyes and convulsing, some were groaning and grabbing their hands tightly, and some were gritting their teeth and pounding their heads on the ground.

Symptoms are inconsistent.

But what is certain is that madness can be transmitted through the medium of fog.

Zun Zun looked at the huge white whale swimming in the sky and couldn't help but raise his middle finger to it and cursed:
"Are you a super high school level despair!?"

“————Gah!”

It was not known whether Zun Zun’s curse reached the white whale’s ears. It shouted again with a cheerful mood. Soon it found something wrong and cast a humane doubt on Zun Zun.

——How come you (I) are okay?

Skillful.

Zun Zun also had the same doubts.
