After some time the battle ended.

If you want to find so many Monster, you may not be able to find one that will last forever.

Dick came to the half-human spider and gently took Lantern away from its hand.

He found that the bottom of Lantern was translucent and seemed to be made of some kind of glass product, and inside there was a figure of Tiny lying there with its eyes closed. He looked at the small figure with four transparent wings behind it, and was wearing a colorful dress that seemed to be sewn from petals.

"What's going on?" Dick didn't know what he meant, but he put out the torch Flames in his hand and found that he was not affected by the mist.

Soul Lantern had already obtained it, Dick turned around and walked towards his partner.

However, after only taking two steps, Dick turned back, walked to the body of the centaur spider, snatched the sword that was still clenched in his hand, took off its scabbard, and threw them into the space backpack together.

"It's a good thing. Maybe I can give it to a demon hunter when I get back."

He then turned around and looked at the three companions who were already walking towards him.

"I'm sorry, I was controlled just now and I haven't been able to help you much." The archer said apologetically.

"Anyway, our goal has been achieved, look." Dick raised Lantern, "You see the little guy inside, what is this?"

"What little guy? What's inside? The outside is obviously made of objects that block our sight. Dick, what are you talking about?" the dwarf asked in confusion.

Dick thoughtfully said, "It doesn't matter, let's hit the road."

"Okay, now I will show you the way." The archer pointed in a direction and said, "Go forward along that road, and we will reach a checkpoint. There will be a blocker inside. After killing him, you can go straight to the palace."

They did as they were told, and everyone moved forward, and Dick discovered that Lantern could illuminate a very wide range. Even if they had stepped into the thicker crimson mist ahead, they could still maintain high visibility without any harm.

While Dick was moving forward, he also entered the spiritual space. The reason was for no other reason than that after killing the half-man spider and gaining 300 energy points, plus all the other Monsters, his Energy Points number reached 3400 points.

When he wanted to add the remaining Energy Points to [Time Traveler], he found that 1000 Energy Points disappeared directly.

Time Traveler: You can return to the time node half an hour ago or half an hour later, as long as you are in good health.

"At this time, the skills on the panel are almost full, and the skill [Time Traveler] seems to need to be used with caution, and it costs a lot of Energy Points to upgrade, so you don't need to pay too much attention to the panel in the future."

Suddenly, Dick heard "Please, please help me." It was the voice of a little girl. He looked around and found no one. He thought he was hallucinating, so he continued walking forward, and the voice sounded again.

"What's wrong? Dick." The pastor turned around and asked.

Dick waved his hand, "Wait a minute."

Then, he placed Lantern on the ground and found that the voice calling for help disappeared, and he could no longer see the little guy inside through the glass barrier.

"So that's it, she's communicating with me."

Dick picked up Lantern again, and the voice sounded again, "Please, please help me."

"Tell me, little one, who are you? What is going on?"

"You finally noticed me. I was so tired just now that I fell asleep. Now when I woke up, I found that the evil man no longer had control over me. When I saw your handsome face, I saw that you were a kind-hearted person. Turn the switch above and you can set me free. Please."

"You haven't said what you are yet?"

"I am the Flower Elf. I was captured by these villains to fight against the erosion of the crimson mist. I saw a little friend die in front of my eyes. You don't even know it. They never gave me food or drink. I have been locked up here for several years."

"You have to let me think about it." After saying that, Dick was about to put down Lantern. He wanted to discuss it with everyone.

"Damn human, damn guy, I curse you to give birth to a child without an asshole. When I get out, I will cut you into pieces!" The child's voice immediately became vicious.

However this is of no avail.

Dick has put down Lantern and looks at the other three teammates.

"What's going on?" asked the dwarf.

"There is a little guy inside who calls himself the Flower Elf, and he wants me to let her go."

Then, Dick looked at the archer. "Have you heard of the Flower Elf?"

"I have indeed heard and seen it when I was a child. My mother once said that when the crimson mist infects this land, many children can see that magical and naughty little creature. Although they are a little bad, they have a very good character. They dig nectar like bees and guide people when they are lost.

"By the way, what does she look like?"

"She looks very cute, has four translucent wings, and wears a neon dress."

"She should be the Flower Elf. But you need to discuss it with her. After we lose her, we may lose the power to break through the crimson mist. Let's see if there is any way for us to resist this mist."

"Okay." Dick mentioned Lantern again.

"Oh, kindhearted person, I know you will not give up on me. As long as you help me a little, I will definitely repay you heavily in the future." The voice of the flower elf sounded again, her tone was full of gentleness, without the vicious feeling just now.

"You can repay me now and help us solve the problem of this crimson fog, because we have to go through this fog and continue to move forward."

"This is a very simple matter, but first you need to let me out."

Dick only hesitated for a moment, then gently turned the rotating device above.

"No, damn it, it hurts so much, stop!"

"What's wrong?"

"You turned it in the wrong direction. Turning it to the left is the cruel half-human spider's way of punishing me, but turning it to the right is the way to release me."

"You didn't tell me earlier." Dick followed the flower elf's instructions and slowly rotated the device to the right. He was afraid that if he rotated too fast and made a mistake again, the flower elf inside might die suddenly.

After two rotations, the upper cover was removed, and a tiny golden dot flew out. It was extremely small, less than half the size of Dick's palm.

After circling Dick, the flower elf laughed happily and said, "Hahaha, I, the flower fairy, have come out again. I will rule the sea of flowers again and let those little bees feel my fear."

After all, it also revealed a pointed tiger tooth, which seemed to reflect evil under the light.

"By the way, what's your name?" the flower elf said proudly, holding Tiny's arm in front of her chest.

"My name is Dick, and I am a demon hunter."

"Very good, Dick, hahahaha, do you know what suffering I have suffered in these years?

"There is no nectar, no dew, and all day long I have only the stinky farts I excrete when I am hungry to keep me company. I almost vomit just thinking about this feeling. Oh, by the way, what did I promise you just now?"

Dick watched the flower elf playing tricks with a smile on his face, and the little guy seemed quite bored when he saw that Dick was not fooled. He shook his little head and stretched his fingers forward. A white halo enveloped everyone, and then Dick felt something different.

A new talent has appeared in the elven spiritual space - the temporary talent "Flower Fairy's Blessing". You can walk in the corrosive mist at will, and it is valid for 99 years.

It seems that this flower elf is really generous.

"I just said, Dick, Flower Fairy never owes anyone a favor, and now we have settled our grudges."

After saying that, she dragged a long ray of light and quickly circled several times in the air and flew towards the sky.

"Ah, so beautiful. I saw the flower elf when I was a child. Since this land was corroded, it took me decades to see it again." The archer on the side said with emotion.

The dwarf waved his hand and said, "But it seems we haven't changed much."

"Then put out the torch first." Dick said.

Everyone did as they were told, and then they really didn't feel any corrosion coming from them. It seemed that the flower elf really kept his promise.

"Let's move on." Dick said, and then everyone continued on their way.

After walking for a while, everyone came to a towering city wall with a closed city gate, and directly above the city wall stood an extremely fat man. His body was shining with gold. If you look closely, you can see that it is an armor made of gold coins.

It seems that he should be the gatekeeper.

In the rest of the city wall, there are dozens of adventurers scattered, holding weapons on guard.

Dick was thinking about how to blow open the city gate, when the shining golden man spoke.

"Huh? Why isn't that half-human, half-spider Monster here?

"Why did you come here by yourself?

"They are not afraid of the erosion of the crimson mist. They seem to be a group of favored ones by the king."

"Yes, we are indeed the king's favored ones." Dick said as he wished, "The guide was really too busy, so we came here by ourselves."

"Hmm? Did you bring his nameplate?"

Nameplate? What nameplate?

Dick thought to himself that he had not noticed such details at all, but he couldn't help but answer at this time.

After only a short pause, Dick immediately said, "Ah, that nameplate, I forgot to ask the guide for it."

"Forget it, it's not your fault. That guy is always neglectful. I don't know why the king trusts him so much. Someone, open the city gate."

As he finished speaking, a creaking sound was heard inside the city wall, and then the door was slowly opened inside. Dick secretly glanced at the three teammates and walked in first, and the other three followed him with wary expressions.

After passing through the passage of the city gate, there was another creaking sound behind him, and the city gate was closed tightly again.

At the same time, the tall golden man had also walked off the city wall and looked at Dick with a proud look on his face, surrounded by dozens of mercenary adventurers.

"Humph, damn guy, I just used a little trick to figure out that you are not the king's favored one. Where did you get that nameplate? Kill them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of arrows were fired at everyone. Dick quickly formed a seal with his right hand, and a stream of light flashed past, and a translucent defensive cover surrounded everyone.

There was a clanking sound of impact, and the shield's defensive cover instantly dimmed.

Dick felt something bad when he saw this, and immediately activated his talent "Blood of Madness". Just when he was about to perform the next move, he saw the golden man grabbing a handful of gold coins from his body, and then he moved forward. As soon as it was thrown, at a speed that Dick couldn't see clearly, he directly ignored the defensive shield, and a clanging sound sounded in front of Dick, knocking it away and hitting the city wall behind him, and the bricks and stones of the city wall were knocked off.

Dick was horrified, how could someone be so powerful? His sternum was already sunken and he had difficulty breathing. Dick was seriously injured with just one blow.

When his teammates saw this situation, they thought the same thing.

Dick is recognized by several people as the most powerful person. He can't block the blow of the golden man, let alone others.

An atmosphere of tension and despair spread around the three of them.

The golden man didn't stop, but he seemed to have lost a little weight. I don't know if this was the demon hunter's illusion.

He grabbed a handful of gold coins from his body and threw them towards the priest.

The dwarf was trying to block the trajectory of the gold coin, but he was not as fast as the gold coin. In an instant, the elf priest who was hit in the chest took three steps back, his face turned pale, and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Dream Shadow." The dwarf shouted, no longer caring about the golden man, and ran towards his lover.

"No!" Dream Shadow stretched out his hand and shouted, but it was too late at this time. The gold coins behind him were thrown out again, and the target was the dwarf.

The jingling sound sounded again, and a gold coin hit the back of the dwarf's head, but to no avail, the gold coin fell from the back of the dwarf's head.

Looking back, the dwarf warrior had a look of astonishment on his face, and Dick had clearly noticed that the golden man's figure had weakened again. He suddenly had an idea Blink and shouted, "Take out all the gold coins you have and throw them away."

He was the first to throw out the more than two thousand gold coins in his pocket, which were the things he needed before leaving. Just as the orcs said before, gold coins are the universal currency of all worlds, and he just prepared them for emergencies.
