Chapter 23 Corruption

Alvin was tripped by an unknown animal bone.

At the end of the grass is a large open space, with corrupted road markings floating in the center.

"Finally found it! I just said I would definitely not go the wrong way!" Captain Murphy also breathed a sigh of relief.

Priest Minara did not respond to him and walked straight to the Tao Biao and observed: the original golden Tao Biao had turned into an unknown gray-black, emitting a disgusting aura.

"How did Dao Biao become like this?" Captain Murphy frowned tightly.

Alvin observed around: there were some animals' bones scattered on the ground, some of which were already very dry, and some were stained with blood: "Is this a nest of a wild beast? Perhaps Dao Biao was accidentally destroyed by a certain wild beast."

"No, according to Ms. Aureese and Ms. Salolaz, the Tao marks here are all destroyed from the inside out." Minara said as she observed Tao marks carefully.

"The most urgent task is to remove the old road marks and then place the new road marks!" Captain Murphy looked at the sky: "It has been a long time, and we don't have much time!"

"This mark floated in mid-air, how can we get it down?" Alvin was a little curious.

"There is another base underground, which should have been buried in the soil. Just dig out the base and destroy it." Captain Murphy took out a small shovel from the package.

Alvin placed the confinement mark in his hand on the ground, took Murphy's shovel, and began to dig under the corroded mark.

With a shovel down, Alvin only felt that the soil below was particularly soft, like silt!

With a little force on his shoulder, a shovel of soil was dug out: a foul stench gushed out from the ground!

"Damn, this soil smells so smelly!" Alvin said, covering his nose.

Priest Minara and Captain Murphy did not respond to him. Both of them stared at the dirt dug out by Alvin...

Alvin also looked at the eyes of the two people, saying it was soil, but it was blood-red! Alvin used a shovel to open it, and some organic tissue could be vaguely seen inside: the source of the stench was found, Alvin waved a few more shovels and dug out more things: the skull of the sheep, the horns of the cow, and even the undecayed animal eyeballs!

"So, this mark was placed on the animal's cemetery at that time?" Alvin said.

"Impossible. The placement of the road mark requires good conditions. No one will place it in the place where animal corpses are buried!" Captain Murphy said in a deep voice as he looked at the animal corpses on the ground.

"Then these animals died here after the Tao mark was placed." Evan made a reasoning according to Captain Murphy's words.

"As far as I know, except for the animals with preliminary wisdom like Lei Xiang, they will choose cemeteries when they die. I have never heard of argali gathering together to die. The elderly argali cannot escape the attacks of steppe wolves at night!" Priest Minara added his opinion.

Alvin stopped talking, but he thought of the tentacle he saw in Yueying Valley after he got drunk last time: Maybe some existence in the cave would kill the beast dragged into the cave, and then send the residual body here in some way!

Alvin thought about all kinds of possibilities, but Captain Murphy interrupted his thoughts: "Okay, no matter what, what we have to do now is to destroy the corrupt Taoist mark and replace it with a new Taoist mark."

Minara once again casts a light shield to Ivan to isolate the stench on the ground. Ivan picks up the shovel and continues to dig.

The shovel brought by Captain Murphy was a little small. After spending a while, Alvin finally dug out the pedestal base in the ground! At this time, there was a big hole on the ground.

Throwing the base out, Alvin quickly climbed out of the pit. Although there was a light shield covering the smell, he still felt very disgusting.

After the base was thrown out, the main body of the Taoist specimen floating in the air began to shake. As soon as Alvin crawled out of the pit, the Taoist specimen in the sky fell down - broken into several sections scattered in the pit.

"The Taoist marks made of metal are so fragile!" Alvin looked at the Taoist mark fragments on the ground: the broken mouth kept emitting a black breath!

"There must be no more signs in this place. We have to find another place!" Murphy said with a kick on the bone on the ground.

"Will the changes in location affect the confinement effect of the road mark?" Alvin said with some concern.

"As long as it does not exceed the scope, there will be no impact!" Captain Murphy said.

After a pause, Captain Murphy said again: "Now we have to find a flat and relatively solid place nearby." Looking at the dense grass around, Captain Murphy smiled and said: "Let's both of us throw Priest Minara into the sky together!"

Alvin shook his head and said, "That would fall to her!"

Priest Minara came over and gave Alvin a blank look: "Never underestimate a spellcaster!"

...

Alvin and Murphy held Minara's foot together: Then they exerted force together, and Minara was thrown vertically into the air!

Feeling that she had reached the highest point, the holy light flashed around Minara: her body suddenly became as light as a feather - floating technique.

Taking advantage of the slow fall time, Minara quickly observed the terrain around...

After a moment, Minara finally landed on the ground: "We need a small slope to the north, and there should be road markings on the top of the slope!"

After packing up his things, the three of them hurried to the north.

After another baptism of grass, the three of them finally walked out of the dense grass.

Captain Murphy explored around and finally confirmed the location where the confinement mark was placed.

According to Minara's request, Evan placed the Taoist mark upright on the ground, opened the repulsive power array on the base. During a wave of arcane waves, the base separated from the Taoist specimen and slowly rose, and finally floated in mid-air: a wave of light visible to the naked eye was emitted from the top of the Taoist mark, and an invisible force spread to the entire Moon Shadow Valley.

"The task is done! I don't know how the other two teams have completed it." Looking at the Tao Biao in the air, Priest Minara said softly.

"By the way, the arcane mark!" Captain Murphy suddenly thought of what Saloras said: a gentle holy light hit the trail mark, and the arcane mark attached to it slowly dissipated!

"It's time to set out near the innermost cave!" Alvin looked at the vaguely visible cave in the distance, feeling a little worried: what he saw last time had a shadow!

"Come over now, maybe we are the first one to arrive!" Captain Murphy finally checked the confinement mark, and a few people left the hill.

Although the journey this time is farther than before, the road conditions are much better! Alvin and the other two walked through a sparse forest, then walked through a gravel field and arrived.

"It seems that we are not the first one!" Alvin said to Ereda Gemini, who was sitting on the ground resting in the distance.
