It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 650 Banica

At this moment, Feng Ling has arrived on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, in Banica, located in the Western Hemisphere.

Banica is composed of more than a thousand islands and is the largest island nation in the Western Hemisphere. Most of its territory has a tropical savanna climate and is rich in wildlife resources.

Before the alien invasion, the natural scenery here constantly attracted travelers from all over the world, and now it has become a sanctuary for surrounding countries—because the entire Banica is unpolluted.

For some reason, the pollution in the maze stops spreading as soon as it comes into contact with water, as if it is blocked by an invisible wall. Seawater is the most effective at isolating it, followed by rivers, while small streams and creeks are ineffective.

Some theological researchers believe this is because water has purifying power. In some Western folklore, rivers are often endowed with sacred or cleansing properties, and rushing rivers are especially regarded as natural barriers. A typical example is that vampires cannot cross flowing water.

However, this claim has not been accepted by the scientific community.

Feng Ling sat on the back of a kite, drifting over one of the islands of Banica. She saw thousands of refugees gathered below, and ships were sailing in from afar, the narrow coastline almost overwhelmed.

The sunlight cast the shadow of a colossal creature, while tiny humans cried out on the earth. The chaotic sounds, carried by the wind, reached Feng Ling's ears, so faint as to be almost inaudible.

Feng Ling had no intention of causing a disturbance. She found a deserted island so that the kite, which had been flying for four consecutive days, could rest.

She and Ye Zheng also needed rest. They hadn't had a chance to get out of bed for the past four days, and their bones were almost stiff.

The cat spider and the large insect were also in extremely poor condition.

The cat spider was previously abandoned in Ilanca and later transported to Lisa by Huang Yi's plane. This experience made it hate flying, while the giant worm itself prefers to stay underground and is very unaccustomed to high-altitude flight.

Feng Ling comforted them: "Just hang in there, you'll be almost home soon."

The cat spider and the big insect leaned limply against the kite, looking listless.

Ye Zheng asked Feng Ling, "You've had that kind of feeling again?"

Feng Ling nodded and looked at the distant sky. "Not only do they exist, but they are becoming more and more frequent. It's an abyss labyrinth without an abyss. I can't understand why the alien species would open the labyrinth entrance so frequently."

Ye Zheng snorted, "That Meteor is probably plotting something again."

Thinking of Meteor, Feng Ling was also a little annoyed. "Meteor is occupying the little skeleton's body, which makes it a bit difficult to deal with him. It's not very satisfying."

"Why not let them switch bodies back?" Ye Zheng said. "Since they signed a demon contract, both parties agreed to switch bodies back. As long as Little Skeleton shows up, Meteor should still come looking for Little Skeleton."

Just like before in Rissa, when the Painted Skin Ghost disguised himself as a little skeleton and appeared next to Feng Ling, it did attract Meteor. If the Frankenstein's monster hadn't suddenly interfered, Feng Ling's plan would actually have worked.

Ye Zheng asked, "Should we have Huang Yi arrange a plane to send the little skeleton over?"

Feng Ling sighed, "Why bother with her? As long as their bodies aren't switched back, Meteor won't go offline. There will be plenty of opportunities to catch Meteor; it'll just take a little more time."

After a two-second pause, Feng Ling continued in a low voice, "Whether it's a mutant or a maze, it's not a big deal. The most troublesome thing is this game. What exactly is this game? Where did it come from? The parrot said that there will be a points settlement before the game restarts, but what happens after the restart? What will the world become?"

Ye Zheng lowered his eyes, "Since it's called a reboot, then naturally it's a fresh start: new players, new mazes, new contamination..."

Feng Ling tilted her head in thought, "So I need to seize the initiative before the game restarts and become the most powerful game boss. Only in this way can I have enough power to deal with any kind of player, any kind of maze, and no matter how many times the game restarts."

Ye Zheng was initially feeling somewhat heavy-hearted, but when she heard her say that she wanted to become the most powerful game boss, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"You're quite ambitious, aren't you? The most powerful boss, the world's salvation depends on you." She teased. Feng Ling chuckled, "Whether I can save the world or not, I don't know, but I really like this feeling of others desperately trying to kill me, but I just can't die."

“You won’t die, Feng Ling,” Ye Zheng said.

“Of course,” Feng Ling said, hands on her hips, “none of us will die.”

Ye Zheng turned his face away, gazing at the distant scenery, and did not reply.

The helicopter roared in, the noise from its propellers displeasing the tiger. It wriggled and dug a burrow, burying its tiger head in the dirt.

The visitors were officials from Banica.

Feng Ling's movements have attracted worldwide attention. She landed in Banica and was immediately greeted by officials.

Every country hopes that she can resolve some troubles while traveling around the world, and Banica is no exception.

Although there is no pollution within Banica, the country is under great pressure due to problems in neighboring countries.

Thus, Feng Ling obtained detailed maps of surrounding countries, a map showing the distribution of contaminated areas in the maze, the physical characteristics of the contaminated entities, their skill performance, and other information for free.

In addition to providing intelligence, the Banica government also warmly prepared generous gifts.

Feng Ling politely declined again.

She is now frighteningly indifferent to fame and fortune; apart from cards or items that can enhance her strength, she has no interest in anything else.

However, she accepted the boat that Baniga gave her.

The crew took her, Ye Zheng, the weasel, the cat-spider, the giant insect, and the flower crown fairy to the western sea. At sea, they could occasionally encounter ships full of refugees. Some were ordinary cargo ships, some were old fishing boats, and some were luxury yachts. The scene was so spectacular that Feng Ling once thought that the country on the other side of the coast had been destroyed.

When she finally set foot on that unfamiliar land, she discovered...

Actually, it's alright.

It's nowhere near as bad as the unlucky Moogle.

The contaminated area of ​​the maze only occupies a very small part, equivalent to the fall of a city, but the entire nation is fleeing, which seems somewhat absurd.

This situation is due to the recent abnormal weather, which has worsened public opinion. The out-of-control public opinion has led to widespread panic among the people. Anyone with a little bit of wealth is trying to leave this land and go to the holy land of Banica, even though Banica is no longer able to accept more refugees. People believe that it is safer to drift at sea than to stay in the same place.

Feng Ling stood on the empty street, spread her arms, and took a deep breath.

"I feel like I'm getting closer, closer and closer," she said, then added uncertainly, "Could that maze that's spreading pollution be my maze?"

"Does it look like it?" Ye Zheng handed over the tablet, which contained all the information provided by Baniga, including video footage of the monster.

“I don’t think so.” Feng Ling stared at the screen. “But I can probably understand why everyone here has been scared away.”

I guess only you guys on the entire internet can tolerate my haphazard, disjointed writing style... Thank you.
