Zhang Xiaoman’s carefree days inside the warship did not last long, as he quickly received a ssage from Lan Gu.
"We’ve discovered a resource point ahead, but it’s being blocked by monsters. We request the Extre Star Elder to join us in defeating them."
"Resource point? Monsters...?"
Zhang Xiaoman imdiately rushed out from the spaceship, following the trail of Lan Gu and others to a nearby resource point.
"Extre Star Elder, you’re here!"
A disciple of the Lan family saw him and respectfully bowed.
At this mont, the Lan family mbers were already locked in battle with a group of monsters.
These were ferocious beasts shrouded entirely in green mist, roughly the size of an average human, resembling mutants from Guleng Star, with extraordinarily long limbs and hideous, nacing features. They moved with extre agility.
The most crucial aspect was that these monsters were enveloped in a green aura—a mist that pervaded the surrounding environnt, highly toxic. Even Control Level powerhouses, if they rely touched it slightly, would be imdiately corroded into a pool of blood in agony.
This was the first wave of catastrophe that the Lan family encountered in the Plague Relics region.
Zhang Xiaoman’s pupils suddenly contracted. From the timid appearance of the Lan family disciples, it was clear they were extrely wary of this toxic mist, unable to fully engage these monsters. Even with their might, in an all-encompassing suppressive environnt like this, they were still being beaten back, step by step.
"It’s the Plague Army! Remnants of the Plague God! Who would’ve thought they still survive after all these years, and their power has only grown stronger!"
This Lan family disciple obviously knew sothing about these monsters and seed to have visited the relics before, having witnessed them firsthand.
Zhang Xiaoman was not unfamiliar with these guys either. After all, they are the most common obstacle within the Plague Relics, and he had read so related materials before coming here.
He just did not expect these monsters’ strength to be so formidable. Not only was their physical power terrifying, but their poisonous mist also ard them as if they were equipped to the teeth, rendering even a Peak Level like Lan Gu helpless against them.
"Ji Xing, you’re here."
Among the crowd, a figure retreated quickly; it was the current Lan Clan Leader, Lan Gu.
"Lan Clan Leader."
"Ji Xing, I heard you ntioning before that you have strong resistance to toxic attacks. Can you handle these Plague Army creatures?"
The situation at the front was urgent, and Lan Gu wasted no ti, getting straight to the point.
Zhang Xiaoman kept his eyes on the battle ahead while asking about the specific situation.
"Ah, we don’t know whether our luck is good or bad this ti. Initially, we searched for several days and didn’t expect to find a resource point so quickly. According to the survey team, there should be a large Olharast Rock mine ahead. This rare mineral is top-grade material for crafting equipnt, and I’m sure you’ve heard of it. Naturally, we are determined to acquire it..."
"Unfortunately, a group of Plague Army monsters is entrenched near this ore vein. They used to be warriors who followed the Plague God in nurous campaigns. After the Plague God’s demise, they were trapped in this space, enduring till now without perishing. The Demon Clan’s constitution is indeed unexpectedly resilient..."
"As you can see, our disciples can’t get close to them and can only try to maintain distance for a long-range attack. Elder Lan Li and I can engage in long-range bombardnts, but doing so would inevitably cause severe damage to the ore vein, sothing we utterly wish to avoid..."
"Ji Xing, I previously heard you ntion your capability to resist the Poison King Guard’s poisonous attacks, which are remarkably powerful and botherso insects within the Desert Worm Clan. Therefore, I’d like you to see if you can drive away those monsters. As long as you can lead them outside the ore vein’s range, we can unleash thunderous asures to destroy them!"
"..."
Listening to Lan Gu’s explanation, Zhang Xiaoman gradually comprehended the current situation.
The resource point in front of him was actually an Olharast Rock vein, extrely rare and precious, akin to Dragon Sleep Stone from Dragon Sleep Mountain.
From its scale, there was much more Olharast Rock here than in the batch at Star Alliance’s Dragon Sleep Mountain Cave, significantly more. The sight of it made even Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes heat up with desire.
Now he understood why the major families were so intent on not missing the exploration opportunity inside the relics. Their brief departure had already yielded such gains, unimaginable in the outside world.
The only pity was that this treasured find could only be seen but not consud. The Olharast Vein was guarded by a group of Plague Army monsters, and the terror of their poisonous aura gave Lan Gu and the others a headache. Moreover, to prevent damage to the ore vein below, even the few peak Control Level figures dared not strike with full force, fearing they would damage the vein with a careless move.
Thus, the best solution was naturally to find soone to lure away those monsters. Once driven out of the ore vein’s range, Lan Gu and others could go all out, and even if these Plague Army monsters were incredibly powerful, they would ultimately fall against the full force of peak Control Level existences.
