Chapter 1027: Harness the chariot

Noland Lee, following the Deconstruction Results of the trio from Deconstruction Hickman Arlington, searched for the treasures they had hidden outdoors one by one.

This process lasted for about two hours.

At the same time, teams from the Wizard Advancement Association and other wizard forces arrived.

The Pure Light Court arrived the earliest, occupying the area with the best geographical environment.

There was an Underground River, a sand field, and two Shadow Demon Beasts Nests.

The Pure Light Court happened to use the ready-made materials to research the features of the Pollution Zone.

...

The Wizard Advancement Association chose to set up camp in a place known as the Plague Cavern.

That place was located in the southwest corner of the Pollution Zone, and further west was the Dark Abyss of Baldur’s Gate.

Their choice of this location was mainly targeting the fleeing Shadow Death Laborers.

It was said that near the Plague Cavern, the Wizard Advancement Association encountered many Shadow Death Laborers.

They gathered these laborers for interrogation.

Those who could provide valid information could become laborers of the Wizard Advancement Association.

Those without value were subject to “purification” treatment, that is, the Shadow Death Laborers and the Shadow Fragments would be exterminated together.

——The Shadow Death Laborers were not members of the Ulnas Ring and were not protected by the Ulnas Ring Law. The actions of the Wizard Advancement Association did not breach any laws.

Wizard forces that arrived later built their Temporary Camps around the Pollution Zone according to the order of arrival.

From Professor Erica, Noland learned:

The total number of wizard forces present at the scene reached as many as 37.

Wealth Creation Society of Baldur’s Gate, Laron Rockbone of Laron Grand Canyon, Pangula Family, Nature Branch and Energy Shaping Branch of Hotams, Crawling City, Tomb King, and other forces Noland was familiar with, all came to join in the excitement.

According to Ulnas Ring Law, any wizard force that has registered can perform Magic Experiments at the site before the Pollution Zone becomes an extraordinary national phenomenon.

Only after it becomes an extraordinary national phenomenon will a designated Magic Research Institute be established to be responsible for the phenomenon.

About the time Noland finished scavenging the Magic Treasure, preliminary exploration results of the Pollution Zone emerged.

This was an extensive Pollution Zone.

Spanning 200 kilometers east to west and extending 600 kilometers north to south, it stretched along the meridian running in a north-south direction.

In the north, it connected to the battlefield of the Underground Fungi People and Greyrock Dwarves and extended to the Dark Zone underneath Moon Bay in the south. It reached the Dark Zone of the Eternal Lightning Ravine to the west and touched the Dark Zone of Buzzing Mountain Ridge in the east.

The battlefield of the Underground Fungi People and Greyrock Dwarves was a place called Greyrock Clusters, boasting numerous greyrock plots that could cultivate healing mushrooms.

The Ground Level area right above Greyrock Clusters was the Balkan Tavern, a tavern facility encompassing housing, trade, entertainment, fortress, and brewing functions.

Luckily, the Pollution Zone had not expanded to the ground level.

Moon Bay, Eternal Lightning Ravine, Buzzing Mountain Ridge, and the Balkan Tavern were relatively safe.

Denise Green and others lingering near the Eternal Lightning Ravine probably didn’t need to urgently evacuate. noveldrama

The reason for the “probably” not needing to evacuate was due to the unstable nature of the Pollution Zone.

Within the first 24 Hours after the emergence of the Pollution Zone, all wizard forces lingering nearby Detected the phenomenon of the zone expanding outwards.

The Pollution Zone was expanding at a rate of 50 meters every 24 Hours, stretching out in all directions.

Its expansion direction included both above and below ground.

Continuing at this rate, it was estimated that in about 100 days, the wizards at Ground Level would see the Pollution Zone break through the soil.

This phenomenon undoubtedly sounded an Alarm Bell for the wizards.

Because many extraordinary resources located below sea level would be swallowed by the Pollution Zone.

For example, the Thunder Crystal Core from the Eternal Lightning Ravine, Lightning Phantoms, and Barren Stone from the Barren Stone Quarry.

Therefore, at dawn on Day Two, as soon as it was light, the Wizard Advancement Association sent out a warning letter to all wizards in Thousand Peak Ridge.

All wizards assigned a Research Task must complete their tasks as soon as possible.

And those wizard forces that have Magic Industries in Thousand Peak Ridge must find ways to stop the expansion of the Pollution Zone or face the tragic fate of their industries being swallowed by the Pollution Zone.

In addition, the Wizard Advancement Association also offered a suggestion:

Do not build immovable Temporary Camps; use Magic Buildings with floating features that can hover in the air instead.

No one can ensure that the Pollution Zone won’t suddenly expand by several cycles, dragging the nearby Temporary Camps into it.

What troubled the Head of the Wizard Advancement Association most was that they had yet to find a way to stop the expansion of the Pollution Zone.

Under normal logic:

Once the gaps in the Star Filtering Net were closed, the Pollution Zone should have ceased to move.

But now, even though the gap had been closed, the Pollution Zone was still expanding.

At this stage, stopping the expansion of the Pollution Zone became the first Research Task issued by the Wizard Advancement Association, and everyone was invited to participate.

As long as someone could find a way to stop the expansion of the Pollution Zone, the Wizard Advancement Association would provide a massive number of Magic Gems as a Reward.

It was estimated that the number of Magic Gems would not be less than 10,000.

In short, the Wizard Advancement Association had encountered real trouble this time.

And the resulting Pressure fell on Mabel’s head.

She wished she could complete the task of “transforming the Lightning Phantom into a magic puppet” right now and then take Philia and the others back to the Ulnas Circle for refuge.
