To prevent any mishaps, Lear has mobilized the most elite forces this time.
All 700 Cold-blooded Cavalry have been deployed.
40 Ancient Treant Guardians accompany the army.
15 squads of Dark Night Elves, fully loaded with arrows, are ready and waiting.
The Land of Crimson Rot has been imprinted into his mind.
As for heroes, there are six Level 15 Great Demons, a Level 14 Two-headed Giant Chief, a Level 13 Flesh Butcher, and a Level 12 Haggs.
In addition, there's a Level 14 Desolate Tomb and a Level 12 Crimson Queen Bee from the Land of Crimson Rot.
Cyclops, 10 Bubble Beasts, and 3 Swamp Boggarts also march with the army.
He left behind only a Level 15 Demon hero and 10 Ancient Treant Guardians to guard his territory.
The Great Demon alone can handle most of the troubles.
But for safety's sake, on the night of the 5th, Lear sent the Queen Bee Commander to sweep the Mire Swamp and the surrounding areas clean of any threats.
Eliminating any potential threat.
Lear strides forward, and after seeing the army gathered, he simply waves his hand to order the march without further words.
He flips and mounts onto an Ancient Treant Guardian, while the Dark Night Elves mount Swamp Giant-Horned Deer, following behind the Cold-blooded Cavalry.
The Swamp Giant-Horned Deer King has yet to submit, so for now, he uses the Treant as his mount.
However, this also looks pretty impressive.
The army moves swiftly, and without any wild beasts obstructing them, they reach the location where the Dark Naga was observed last time, even before noon.
Five to six hundred meters away, above a valley surrounded by hills, thick black fog swirls, obscuring the scene.
Different from last time, more than six squadrons of Dark Nagas are now guarding the entrance of the valley.
The enemy's strength has increased again.
Lear's brow furrows slightly.
After observing for a moment and gaining no further information, he turns to the Cyclops following them.
"Did you sense anything unusual?"
This six-meter-tall swamp creature, holding a huge metal Wolf Fang Club, looks at the Dark Naga with its massive single eye, and speaks in a deep, muffled voice.
"Sovereign, the black fog in that valley can cut off everything..."
Saying this, a bit of dread appears on its face.
"But I can vaguely sense that the force enslaving me has grown even stronger!"
Lear's gaze deepens.
Abyss Duke?!
Indeed I can't afford to delay any longer, or who knows what might emerge from within!
The more dangerous it is, the faster it needs to be eradicated.
As he contemplates, Lear looks towards the Crimson Queen Bee.
With a slight mental command, the Land of Crimson Rot opens an aperture.
He reaches in and pulls out a head-sized, jet-black, round metal ball.
Goblins Bombs, 4 Stars, capable of causing devastating damage within a 100-meter radius.
He had obtained a total of 5 Goblins Bombs from the Goblin Ruins, four 4-star ones and one 5-star one.
Gazing at the valley shrouded in the black mist, his eyes turn cold.
The Silent Black Mist can weaken the attributes of any life that enters by 60%.
This is a formidable blockade by the Dark Naga, and their black mist must be breached, or this battle cannot commence.
Previously, he didn't have a means to contend with it; now...let the bombs purify everything!
Goblins Bombs can be detonated directly using Spiritual Power, making them convenient to operate.
Lear channels his Spiritual Power into the bomb and then hands it over to the Crimson Queen Bee beside him.
Bubble Beasts could carry out the mission too, but they can only control bubbles from a distance of 200 meters, which might put them in danger.
Wasps can regenerate; if they die, they die.
The command is given.
A swarm of wasps marked with dark red spots flies down, lifting the Goblins Bombs together as they rise into the air.
After reaching a few hundred meters, they slowly approach the valley; the Silent Black Mist reaches about 300 meters high.
The swarm soon arrives overhead.
Lear issues a mental command.
They suddenly release the bombs, allowing them to fall freely.
Directly plummeting into the black mist.
The next moment.
Boom~
The Goblins Bombs didn't perform as expected by directly falling into the mist.
Instead, they seemed to bounce as if hitting a rubber surface, coming to a halt mid-air.
The black mist is enclosed by an invisible transparent shield.
Lear's pupils contract.
An unexpected development has occurred!
He prepares to recall the wasps and simultaneously retrieves two more Goblins Bombs.
So what if there's a shield; the first bomb will break it, and the second and third will go through.
He refuses to believe this shield can withstand a 4-star Goblins Bomb.
If it can't, he still has the 5-star one!
That's pretty extravagant.
But just as the swarm takes flight, Lear sees the black mist slowly churning, forming a massive hand.
The giant hand seems to sense something, grasps the Goblins Bombs suspended mid-air, and slowly pulls them into the black mist.
Seeing this, Lear's expression turns a bit curious.
The thing inside...is it taking the bomb inside?
A mental command.
The next moment, boom~ A terrifying sound like thunder reverberates.
Within the thick black mist, a mushroom cloud rises, carrying with it waves of intense heat.
The terrifying airwaves surge outward like a violent storm.
The dense black mist is swept away in an instant.
Like someone had poked a huge hole in the sky.
Along with it, there's a crisp sound of shattering glass, as if something inside was broken by the explosion.
Though the Goblins Bomb's damage range is only 100 meters, the actual impact can be tenfold.
A 4-star bomb is no cheap commodity.
The Silent Black Mist is violently dispelled, and then the entire valley's black mist slowly dissipates...
Simultaneously, a disturbance appears in front of the valley.
The Dark Nagas stationed there look up at the dispersing mist, immediately falling into a rage.
