The second week after Dorothy came to "Lantern Town", a violent wind passed from the southwest of the Dark Mist Mountains and swept across the entire wilderness.

In the strong wind, the doors and windows of the inner buildings in the town were closed tightly, and the howling wind was everywhere. Nowadays, there were very few members patrolling the streets, and many members were hiding indoors.

In the ring-shaped restaurant, Bright Flame candle lights hang from above, illuminating the environment. Some students gather around the table to play cards and chess, some discuss new things they have learned recently, and some sit quietly in the corner reading a book.

The wind and snow are blowing outside, but there is a warm and lively atmosphere here.

Sildiya was sitting in a separate room on the second floor of the restaurant, with a small stove burning in the room. She folded her legs in black stockings and sat on the sofa. She read through the knowledge books of the "Six Points Glass School" and learned the advanced glass forging techniques. She occasionally sat up, drank some brewed coffee, and then wrote down the key points and her own thoughts.

The room was a little quiet, the windows were shaking slightly due to the wind, and occasionally the lively noises coming from downstairs could be heard.

In the wilderness more than twenty miles away from the town, a four-man cavalry team was advancing hard in the wind and snow. They could hardly see what was ahead. Even the gaps in their helmets were stained with a little frost, sealing the narrow field of vision.

The leader of this team is the "Third Order" Knight. A pale halo curtain exudes under his feet, spreading to form a small circular wall, protecting the three people behind him from being eroded and blown by the wind and snow.

"We are almost there. The front should be the newly established station "Lantern Town" last year, where we can take a rest." The captain encouraged the team members behind him.

"Yes, sir."

The group of people once again immersed themselves in the wind and snow and quickly disappeared into the snow and wind, making them difficult to detect.

At night, Sylutia was sleeping in bed when he suddenly heard a knock on the door downstairs and the bell in front of the door was also ringing.

She sat up from the bed, picked up the coat on the side, wrapped it temporarily, and then walked downstairs wearing slippers.

Opening the door, she saw several familiar patrol members.

"Did something happen?" She knew that something probably happened when she called her so late.

"Yes, several members from the deep station of the Dark Mist Mountains have just arrived. They are exhausted, extremely weak and hungry, and they have something very important to report to you."

"Give it to me?" Sylutia is a little strange. Although she is the leader of the town, her strength and qualifications are still relatively young. Generally, envoys from large-scale bases will only stop in the town and rarely look for themselves.

"I understand, take me to see him." She tightened her coat with both hands and walked out.

Walking through the snowy streets, Sylutia arrived at the medical training residence, where two doctors were taking care of the messenger on the bed, one of whom was "third-level" Knight, and the other three were "second-level" Knight Attendant.

Knight's condition is not bad, but the remaining three are unconscious. It seems that their ability to reach the town is their limit.

Arriving in front of Knight, the other person's head was already hanging down from time to time, and he was exhausted and sleepy.

"I am Sylutia, what happened?" The girl looked at him with curiosity.

Hearing the girl's clear voice, the other party reluctantly raised his head, his vision was a little blurry, and the only impression in his mind was those moving blue eyes.

It's so beautiful, he muttered to himself, then remembered his mission and began to tell Sylutia about what happened to "Iron Wall High Cliff".

"My team members and I may have also encountered infection and erosion. You must check and deal with it carefully, and try to isolate us as much as possible..." He felt that his mind was a little dizzy, which was something he had never felt since he entered the third level.

After listening to the other party's description, Sylutia looked at his status.

[Sword of Amos Lv.5(Castle)]: You can raise the long sword in your hand, respond to the oath you made, and exert a powerful slashing light blade. (Can be used once every three days)

The strength is very strong, Sylutia thought silently in his heart after analyzing the opponent's state.

This is the most powerful third-level Transcendent she has ever seen. If this Knight were to challenge the Petrification Lizard and Giant Spider she had encountered before, it would be almost easy.

However, depending on the opponent's situation, he was still tortured by the strange "Grey Mud". This kind of enemy is not so much a monster that is difficult to defeat, but rather a mutated virus or bacteria that makes it difficult for people to attack. This leads to the crisis in the "Iron Wall High Cliff" station.

Thinking about the root of the problem and the risks, Sylutia makes people close this place temporarily.

"Don't go out yet, stay here." She glanced at everyone present, her pupils flickering with brilliance.

Now, not only "Iron Wall High Cliff" is being eroded by "Grey Mud", but even the town where she is located may have been infected. If it is not dealt with as soon as possible, once it spreads, she will be unable to recover.

Although she doesn't understand what kind of strange things these "Grey Mud" are, fortunately, she can now use her observation ability far beyond ordinary people to find the corners and traces of their existence to prevent them from doing evil.

"I need to Purification everyone on site and the environment here."

She spread her hands, and a faint silver glow was outlined behind the girl, forming a beautiful pattern. One of the beautiful girls closed her eyes and gently held the water bottle with both hands. The mouth of the bottle was rippled with light, and a faint silver glow was poured out like water.

[Sylutia's Clear Spring](Radiant Moon)

The clear spring water containing the power of Purification can be used for irrigation and washing, and can remove the pollution caused by Aspect Power such as "Distortion", "Dead Ember" and so on.

The members present looked at this scene curiously, only feeling a faint mist envelope their bodies and fill the room, and then some corners flickered slightly, and then everything dissipated and everything returned to purity.
