"Muxue, you go ahead and lead the way."
As soon as the command was given, the vines tied to everyone’s waists tightened instantly, pulling them toward the direction of the Territory.
Aura of Light emanating from Liu Muxue, she took her place at the front of the group.
Everyone then followed swiftly behind her.
Not long after their advance, a strange sound suddenly ca from within the mist.
"Oooh——"
The sound seed to carry a certain anger, and so kind of eeriness...
Within the mist, it seed like sothing wanted to take Eliza back!
"Splash!"
A vast Shadow, like a wave, charged rapidly toward them.
Seeing this, Cao Xing’s expression instantly tensed.
He had no intention of fighting these Monsters in the mist.
"Let’s move quickly and return to the Territory."
Upon hearing this, everyone unleashed their Extre Speed!
Then, they frantically advanced according to the direction of the Tree Vines tied around their waists.
At the Territory, Jode, who was pulling at the Tree Vines, continuously tugged at them.
The endless mist around blocked the view, so Cao Xing simply stopped distinguishing directions and advanced based on the direction of the Tree Vines.
At that mont, Isabell continued to release her Light with all her might!
With concern in her eyes, she gazed into the mist ahead.
At the sa ti.
Cao Xing and Sarah, along with others, were still sprinting quickly through the mist.
As they got closer to the Wall, more and more creatures from within the mist approached them swiftly.
The distance of five to six kiloters was crossed by them in just a few dozen seconds!
Soon, Cao Xing spotted a faint glimr of Light and knew without a doubt that it was the path indicated by Isabell.
"Quick! Let’s enter the Territory directly!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone surged forward once again, even Blom unleashed an unprecedented Speed.
Upon entering the two-kiloter range of the Territory, it was as if they returned from a mysterious world to their own.
The surrounding mist thinned considerably, allowing everyone to clearly see the outline of the Wall.
A sense of relief surged in their hearts.
However, Cao Xing could sense that the creatures in the mist hadn’t given up and were still approaching swiftly.
He quickly pressed his Communication Device and switched to the team channel: "Everyone, return to your rooms imdiately, and close the doors and windows!"
"Without my command, no one is allowed to co out."
Once the words fell, everyone in the Territory retreated to their rooms at once and extinguished their lights.
As Cao Xing returned to the Territory, he looked at Jode and Isabell on the Wall.
"Co with !"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two figures stopped their actions and followed Cao Xing swiftly toward the center of the Territory, heading straight for the Lord Castle.
Quickly, everyone sward into the spacious castle hall.
Then with a ’bang,’ they shut the oak door!
As they entered, Liu Muxue reverted to normal, and everyone stopped emitting aura.
The entire Territory plunged into complete Darkness.
Inside the Lord Castle, everyone was slightly panting, calming their racing hearts.
anwhile.
A dense crawling sound rapidly approached, climbing over the Wall in the blink of an eye, reaching the interior of the Territory.
"Rustle... rustle..."
Then, from one residential house to another in the Territory, the sound of ’bang bang bang’ from collisions echoed!
Further, Cao Xing even heard the sound of so buildings collapsing!
"Boom! Boom rumble!"
Clearly, the creatures in the mist were very angry, even starting to attack the buildings in the Territory.
Everyone held their Weapons tightly, not moving a single inch, ready to fight at any mont.
In such an oppressive atmosphere, every second felt like an eternity.
Cao Xing even thought of simply going out and fighting them.
After all, it’s almost dawn now.
However, perhaps due to so unwritten Rule, those eerie creatures didn’t break through the door to force their way in.
At least until now, Cao Xing hadn’t heard of any mber being attacked.
So he gradually abandoned this idea.
Ti reached 5:15 in the early morning...
The ti for the Sun to rise was getting nearer.
Yet, the closer it got to Dawn, the darker it beca.
The number of eerie creatures outside kept increasing, with even knocking sounds coming from the windows beside everyone.
The terrifying atmosphere was almost suffocating.
Until...
Ti reached 5:45 in the early morning...
When the first ray of Dawn’s Light shot out from the distant horizon, penetrating layers of Shadows.
The dense crawling and banging noises were abruptly cut off, as if by an Invisible hand.
Then, as if receiving so instruction, they retreated at Extre Speed like receding tides.
"Splash..."
Everyone could clearly hear that the creatures in the mist had crossed back over the Wall, moving far away from the Territory.
However, Cao Xing and the others still didn’t venture out, instead continuing to wait in their respective rooms.
Until, ti reached 6:00 in the early morning.
When the Sun had fully risen, and Dawn’s rays dispersed the mist that covered the entire world completely.

...
Upon seeing the prompts at that mont.
The entire chat channel erupted into a frenzy.
Survivors excitedly sent ssages in the chat channel.
"Woohoo! It’s finally over, we survived another day, it wasn’t easy!"
"Yeah, it wasn’t easy, but fortunately, everyone made it through."
"We have another period of stable developnt now, during this ti, I must stock up on lots of food and resources, and then strengthen the Territory’s capacity, damn it!"
" too, damn it, if such a prolonged disaster happens next ti, we won’t be so miserable."
The eleven-day-long Chenmai Fog Disaster made all the Survivors determined to hoard more resources!
...
...
anwhile.
Liu Muxue and Sarah along with others still stayed inside the Lord Castle, listening to the exterior noises.
Until several minutes passed, they discovered that the surroundings remained in a state of quietness, confirming that the Monsters probably had gone.
Cao Xing made a gesture.
In the crowd, Sarah quickly stood up and went to the door.
She gently pushed open the main door of the Lord Castle, poked her head out to confirm, and then said.
"All is normal."
For a mont, everyone in the castle who had been on alert for almost an hour, relaxed slightly.
Cao Xing quickly switched to the team channel and ordered: "Alright, everyone can lift the alert and safely co out."
The next mont, a cheer erupted around his ears.
The staff and Combat Personnel, appeared quite elated, and rushed out of their rooms.
Cao Xing didn’t go out imdiately, instead looking at Eliza, who was still in Fainting.
The little girl’s eyes were shut tightly, her face pale.
Though nothing Abnormal appeared on the [Status] bar, it seed she wouldn’t wake up in a short ti.
"Heli, take Eliza back to the room for rest first." Cao Xing instructed.
"Yes, Lord!"
After speaking, Heli walked over, assisted Eliza up, and headed toward the door.
Cao Xing also led everyone out of the Lord Castle.
When they stepped outside, they imdiately felt that the entire world was different.
The mist that shrouded the Territory for more than ten days had completely dissipated.
Their visibility also restored to its normal state.
