World Online-Chapter 234 Pink Mist(2)

The sounds of the army behind Jake slowly started to fade away. It was like they didn't exist anymore.

Jake cold hear barely anything at all. Even his breathing became obscure to him, and that was saying something.

"Is the mist numbing my hearing? That doesn't make sense. If it is poison, I should get a message from the system telling me that I am poisoned or at least that I have received a debuff." Jake muttered.

Nothing that was going on made sense to him.

"I just need to find the enemy and stop this pink mist." Jake told himself as he turned around.

The enemy could creep up from anywhere. The mist was dense enough to completely invalid Jake's sense of sight.

Except his sense of touch, the rest of his senses seemed to be taken away in this battle.

"At least I am not forced to look at darkness like in the path of saints. Anything is better than that." Jake smiled as he reminisced about the past.

But it took all but a second before Jake returned to his calm posture, his sword perfectly positioned as he tried his best to sense any changes around him.

"I have to walk forward. Wherever forward is." Jake decided as he took a step forward.

Although he did turn around, he made sure to remember which way right was.

As he was walking forward, he could hear the sound of people talking.

"Are they my men?" Jake thought to himself.

He tried walking toward the sound, but it was becoming more and more obscure. Like the sounds were moving away from Jake.

"I don't seem to recall those voices. And Phoenix's men shouldn't come this far out already. Everyone has orders to stay near the army at times like this. It might be the enemy." Jake suddenly realized.

His legs suddenly propelled him forward as he ran toward the moving voice.

But then, he skid to a halt as he turned to the left this time.

"Another voice? From the left this time?"

Jake turned around full circle once more, and this time, he had absolutely no idea where he was in place.

Looking at the edge of his screen though, he could see the map of absolutely blank space that told him nothing about where he was.

"That means that this cannot obscure my vision of the game panel. I should be allowed to chat with my members." Jake smiled as he opened his chat window, quick bursting a few messages.

Then, he looked around.

"At this rate, it could well be something like the path of saints, with some sort of illusion. I broke out of that one, so I should be able to break out of this one." Jake told himself.

As he took one step forward, he felt a slight gust blow at his back.

Turning back, he pointed the sword toward where the gust came from.

There was nothing natural about that feeling. It was warm and moist. Like someone was breathing on his neck.

"Who is it? Show yourself!" Jake shouted.

"Hehehe."

A seductive voice laughed. The same seductive voice started traveling around Jake, circling him in a speed that wasn't supposed to be possible.

"A fast monster, probably a woman." Jake quickly analyzed what was going on here. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"And it hesitates to attack. What could that mean?" Jake wondered.

He knew that in a situation like this, the enemy had so many ways to attack Jake, and yet it didn't. The monster that Jake was fighting was waiting for something. Something strong.

Grrrrr….

Jake heard a growl from his right, and his eyes dilated.

Ssssss

A sharp sound suddenly ensued,

The pink muse around Jake suddenly split for a second, which let Jake look at what he just pierced.

A wolf. The exact same ones that had fled an hour ago.

"The wolves are not responsible for the pink mist. There is no way. And the way this one attacked, they are also blind in this pink mist." Jake understood.

"Is the monster using the wolves? This might be the right time to use the epic item that I gave Myriad Arrows." Jake chuckled as he thought to himself.

He didn't try to actively cut the mist around him though. Even though his curiosity was getting the best of him and he really wanted to know who was behind the smile, he also knew that it was a better idea to stay calm and not waste one's energy.

"Shadow King?" From behind Jake, he heard a familiar voice.

Jake turned around, and he could see a vague silhouette among the pink mist. From the voice and the alluring silhouette, Jake could recognize who it was in an instant.

"Phoenix?" Jake asked.

The silhouette took one step forward, and Jake could see who it was.

His initial guess was right. It was Phoenix. Her red hair almost blended into the pink mist around her, but her armor didn't. It shone, almost defining her presence.

"Looks like the pink mist doesn't obscure my vision when I see someone who is right next to me." Jake thought to himself.

"What the hell is happening? I took a few steps forward, and all of a sudden, here I am, facing you." Phoenix said.

"Wait, what? A few steps? Does that mean I am going in the wrong direction?" Jake stopped.

But then, he composed himself.

"One second. How do I know I can trust you." Jake asked.

"What are you talking about?" Phoenix asked, a curious look on her eyes.

"This is a clear illusion of some sorts. How do I know that you are who you claim to be?" Jake asked.

"Tell me one thing that only both of us know. Tell me about what happened between us two days ago." Jake declared.
