Just like that, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
They had entered an ancient battlefield with relics dating back thousands of years.
Under Leo Ray’s command,
a group of ten people formed a dense exploration team and slowly moved forward.
The specific arrangement was that Taylor and Gideon Black led the way at the front of the team, with Serena and Stella Clark on the sides of the formation, and Scarlett, Abigail, and Amelia at the rear.
As for the core position, it was naturally Leo Ray, Bianca White, and Linda.
After just a few steps, Leo Ray, who was in the middle of the team, was surprised to find that, the surrounding wasteland, previously covered in dust and sand, had begun to be filled with lush trees stretching as far as the eye could see.
On the branches of the trees, there were also colorful exotic birds pecking and building their nests.
In a daze, it was as if they had inexplicably stepped into a strange forest. However, when Leo Ray focused his energy and looked again,
the suddenly appearing trees once again became ethereal, like reflections in the water.
The feeling was akin to putting on VR glasses and then taking them off, leaving people marveling at the spectacle.
Without a doubt, the group had entered the range of the Mirage’s influence.
“Goodness, isn’t this essentially a 3D holographic version of a mirage?”
Realizing this, Leo Ray secretly praised it in his heart.
Status post.
The subordinates around Leo Ray also emitted low exclamations of surprise.
From this, it was evident that such a Mirage was not a common, strange natural phenomenon that could be seen casually.
After about five or six minutes of walking, a shallow, clear stream came into everyone’s view.
Under the illumination of the two suns above, one large and one small, the sparkling water surface was dazzling.
As they approached, even the pebbles and occasional fish and shrimp in the stream could be clearly seen, and their reflections could be seen as well.
In addition to his amazement. Leo Rav noticed that.
up to this point, not only could they see the illusory forest around them, but they could also clearly hear the crisp bird songs and the babbling sound of the stream.
It seemed that as they progressed deeper, the impact of the natural Illusion Realm on their senses was becoming more holistic.
“I must say, it’s getting more and more interesting.”
Leo Ray strode across the stream with great interest, looking at everything around him.
When crossing the stream, Leo Ray discovered that although the water surface was disturbed by the ripples and waves caused by his footsteps, he did not experience any resistance from the flow of water. It was a very peculiar feeling.
Next, a clearly maintained forest path appeared before the group of ten people.
Following the narrow forest path, the towering trees around them gradually became sparse, and the outline of a large city emerged.
At first glance, the city was exceptionally vast, seemingly endless.
The city walls were at least ten meters high, with numerous arrow towers on top, lined with strange pelican emblems and flags, appearing extraordinarily imposing and spectacular. “Lord, judging from the banners on the city’s head, the scene reflected by this mirage obviously does not belong to the Coldflame Kingdom or the neighboring city of Saint Night Kingdom.”
After staring at the distant city head for a while, Linda on the side bowed and said.
“It seems that we are enjoying a free travel.”
Leo Ray smiled slightly, waved his hand, and gestured for everyone to continue moving forward.
With the progress of the group, the magnificent city in front became clearer and clearer.
Moreover, a large number of pedestrians began to appear around.
Judging from their outfits, there were travelers passing by and residents of the city.
After testing, Leo Ray found that these people were like projections and could not interact with his own side.
However, apart from that, even the appearance of each pedestrian was completely reflected in front of him, and he could even hear the conversation between pedestrians.
Unfortunately, perhaps because the mirage was not fully reflected, he could only hear some incoherent words and phrases and could not understand the specific meaning.
“Lord, according to my senses, the location of the Mirage Eye is in the city not far away.”
On the other side, Scarlett touched the acne on her nose tip and came up to say, “Moreover, it’s easy to enter the mirage but difficult to leave. It will also make those with slightly weaker strength and ordinary people unconsciously move towards the Mirage Eye. If Uncle Kenneth and the others have accidentally entered here, then they are most likely to be near the Mirage Eye.”
“I see, let’s go straight into the city then.”
After thinking for a moment, Leo Ray immediately said with a nod.
Like this, it didn’t take long for the group to come directly to the towering city wall of this mysterious city.
At this moment, Leo Ray looked around and saw not only more than ten meters high city walls and densely packed arrow towers and fortresses but also a perfect protective city river, undoubtedly a large city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
“Our future territory should be developed according to this scale.”
After passing the wide metal bridge that spanned the protective city river, a touch of anticipation color appeared on Leo Ray’s face.
After that, passing the neat rows of black-armored soldiers on both sides of
the giant city gate, the group entered the city.
As soon as they stepped into the city gate, a very prosperous and spacious commercial street and noisy sounds immediately swept towards Leo Ray.
On both sides of the street, there were neatly lined rows of bustling shops and stalls.
As for the pedestrians on the road, it can only be described as a sea of people.
Wherever he looked, whether it was naughty children led by their parents, patrolling soldiers greeting enthusiastic shopkeepers at street corners, or women with vegetable baskets bargaining, there was a scene of prosperity and harmony everywhere.
Even when passing by a roast meat stall, Leo Ray smelled the fragrance of cumin.
“Not only vision and hearing but even smell is integrated here? It has to be said that this is truly an immersive experience.”
Thinking about this, Leo Ray looked around while continuing to move forward.
But at this moment, he unexpectedly found that the werewolf girl Bianca, who had been guarding him closely in the previous second, had suddenly disappeared as if vanished out of thin air.
At the same time, Abigail, Amelia, and Scarlett, who were behind him, also immediately discovered this and showed surprise as they began to look at each other.
“Stop moving, it seems we’ve run into trouble.”
At this moment, Leo Ray’s face suddenly shrank, and he called out to Gideon Black and Taylor in front to stop. Simultaneously, he reached for the hilt of his sword..
