Eeriebane Potion
Boer turned around and whispered the order.
The three Night Watcher took Alchemy Grenade from their waists and handed them all to the front row.
The two men in the front row held bronze swords in one hand and three hand grenades in the other, the pins already pulled between their fingers.
Lu Yuan unscrewed the cap of the Sandworm Oil bottle.
A strong, oily smell wafted out.
He took a match out of his pocket.
"Three."
The fingers in the front row gripped the pull ring tightly.
"Two."
Lu Yuan struck a match, and the flame flickered.
"One! Throw!"
Six Alchemy Grenade were thrown simultaneously.
They traced short arcs in the air before falling into the dense fungal layer ahead.
Boom! Boom! Boom boom boom boom!
A series of explosions imbued with Holy Light erupted in the narrow alley, carrying divine attributes and unique Alchemical Product.
The massive impact tore the bacterial layer apart, sending up clouds of green debris and grayish-white dust.
Several Carrion Ghost were swept up by the blast and slammed against the wall, turning into a pile of rubble.
More Carrion Ghost were startled by the explosion and fled to both sides.
A passage much narrower than before was blown open.
The blown-open fungal layer revealed the floor underneath.
The bronze color has turned black.
It was almost completely rotted through.
"Rush!"
Lu Yuan inserted a burning match into the mouth of the Sandworm Oil bottle.
The moment the Sandworm Oil was ignited, a ball of pure white light suddenly shone in my hand.
That light was several times brighter than an electric light bulb.
The Carrion Ghost around, upon seeing the light, scurried away as if they had encountered their natural enemy.
Lu Yuan forcefully hurled the burning Sandworm Oil at the left wall.
The glass bottle shattered, oil splattered, and Flame quickly spread along the wall.
The bright white firelight illuminated the entire street.
The fungal layer hissed and sizzled under the heat of the Flame, then quickly curled up and shattered.
The Carrion Ghost let out a sharp screech and desperately tried to escape from the range of firelight.
Nine people started running at the same time.
The bronze sword cleared the way, striking any Carrion Ghost that didn't have time to jump away.
Firearms suppressed both flanks.
The texture underfoot was disgusting.
Although the explosion had cleared away part of the bacterial layer, some residue remained on both sides, making a wet, squelching sound when stepped on.
A faint warmth emanated from the soles of the shoes.
Even though Sandworm Oil can repel Carrion Fungus to some extent, its residual properties still have a certain degree of corrosiveness.
But if you're fast enough, you won't have time to burn through the sole of the shoe.
"Don't stop!" Lu Yuan shouted.
Nine figures raced wildly in the firelight of the Sandworm Oil.
The firewall on the left illuminated half the street.
But in the darkness of the street on the right, the figures of Carrion Ghost continued to dart past, but the firelight suppressed them, and none dared to approach.
It ran for about thirty seconds.
The sensation underfoot has changed.
It changed from wet to dry.
The bacterial layer thinned out considerably here, but the smell of blood in the air became even stronger.
The line slowed down.
Everyone was panting heavily.
Boer looked down at the soles of his shoes.
The leather surface has been corroded into shallow grooves, and in thinner areas, the seams inside can be seen.
He raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan.
There was something new in his eyes.
It's not fear.
It is solemn.
A temporary team leader whom I had only known for less than an hour made the correct judgment based solely on observation, without any intelligence support.
He began to understand why Klaus had put this person in the captain's position.
Lu Yuan ignored Boer's gaze.
He is looking ahead.
The firelight illuminated a limited area, but it was enough to make out the outlines in the distance.
About 100 meters ahead.
The ground completely collapsed.
It was a dark, gaping hole, opening right in the middle of the street.
It is approximately ten meters in diameter.
The floorboards at the edge broke off downwards, revealing a dark hole underneath.
Carrion Fungus spread outwards from the edge of the hole, like pus seeping from a wound.
From deep within the cave entrance, a rustling sound could be heard continuously.
It looked like countless claws climbing on the rock face.
The cave entrance was gaping open about 100 meters ahead.
It was pitch black, like a wound that had grown after the earth had cracked open.
The fungal layer spread outwards from the edge of the cave entrance, and the sour, putrid smell was pungent and irritating.
The fire wall of Sandworm Oil was still burning behind us, its bright white light illuminating most of the street and everything ahead.
Then Lu Yuan noticed the change.
The moment the firelight shone into the cave entrance, the sounds inside changed.
It was originally a rustling crawling sound.
Now it's turned into a roar.
A low, hoarse roar, squeezed from the depths of the throat, rose and fell in waves.
It's not fear.
It's anger.
The light source stimulated them.
The first Ghoul crawled out from the edge of the cave entrance.
It moved extremely fast, on all fours, its back arched, like an enraged wild beast.
The second one followed immediately.
The third one.
The fourth one.
They poured out of the hole like an ant colony whose nest had been disturbed, their numbers far exceeding any wave encountered along the way.
And these are different.
He was not a skinny, bony pioneer.
It is larger in size, with fuller muscles, and thick veins can be seen pulsating beneath the grayish-red membrane.
The mouth extends from the lower jaw to the chest cavity, with three layers of teeth interlocking and mucus dripping down between them.
The main force has arrived.
Boer's face turned pale.
"At least twenty... no, more are still coming out..."
His voice was half-drunk by the roar.
Lu Yuan did not hesitate.
He reached his right hand to his waist and took out the bottle of Eeriebane Potion that Laurina had given him.
The small, round bottle had no label, only a Skull drawn by Laurina in charcoal.
Within a five-meter radius, not against the wind.
Lu Yuan raised his hand and glanced at it.
The wind came from the south and blew towards the cave entrance.
With the wind at your back.
The effective range of the Poison of Eeriebane Potion is five meters, but if it spreads with the help of the wind, the coverage area can be even larger.
However, the concentration will be diluted, and the lethality will be greatly reduced.
But that's enough.
You don't need to kill them; just clear a space around the entrance to the cave.
Cover your mouth and nose!
Lu Yuan gripped the round bottle tightly, channeling all the power in his body into his right arm.
It was thrown out.
The glass bottle traced a short arc in the air and flew straight towards the cave entrance.
Smack
The bottle shattered on the rubble at the edge of the hole.
A cloud of pink gas erupted from the debris.
It wasn't smoke, but something with a texture, like powder that had been liquefied and then instantly vaporized, with a faint, visible glow.
The night wind pushed it from behind, and the pink mist quickly spread out from the cave entrance, covering the entire Collapse Zone in just a few seconds.
Far exceeding five meters.
But Lu Yuan could see very clearly that the powdery mist had become very thin as it spread to the edges, and its color had changed from the initial thick pink to a light mist.
The concentration is insufficient.
The effect is most intense at the very center of the opening.
The bacterial layer curled up in patches, shrinking rapidly from the edges to the center like paper being baked by fire, emitting a dense hissing sound, and grayish-white foam rose from the surface before breaking apart and turning into powder.
The Carrion Ghost reacted even more violently.
The moment the powder touched their bodies, those shapeless gray fleshy lumps began to convulse, and a large number of bubbles rose from the mucus on their bodies. Then, their entire bodies collapsed and melted from the outside in, turning into a pool of steaming grayish-brown liquid.
