My dear witch, please turn evil according to the script!

Chapter 392 The Legend of That Lord

I didn't think about the Eternal Runestone any further.

Roland began to focus his attention on the fog disaster in front of him.

According to Squad Leader Kron, the fog disaster has now entered its third stage.

If the squad members cannot dispel the fog before it materializes, then the situation will be beyond the capacity of a single squad to handle.

According to the other party, to resolve the fog that is beginning to spread rapidly and generate powerful entities, a large-scale military operation would be necessary.

Moreover, it would require numerous powerful individuals and an unknown amount of time to barely resolve the situation.

According to what he said, the effects of the spreading fog would mean that powerful individuals who rely on magic might not be able to unleash their full strength, and only warrior-type professions that rely on physical strength would be able to exert their normal power.

Tsk... this fog sounds a bit like myself.

They all selected the "Mage Killer" keyword.

However, I did take too long before.

Slight tremors began to appear within the fog.

It wasn't fog being blown by the wind, but rather a pale white monster beginning to move within it.

As the monstrous creature, whose form seemed poised to disintegrate at any moment, attacked a demon warrior unaware of the impending danger, a sharp spike shimmering with silver and black suddenly appeared, piercing through him and instantly obliterating his existence.

"Retreat. The worst-case scenario you predicted has already occurred."

"Leave the rest to me."

Roland, controlling the Holy Sword Durandal, which was liquefied from the Moon Spirit Essence, instantly killed three newly formed entities in the blink of an eye, and then addressed all the team members.

But Cologne seemed hesitant: "Sir! Aren't you coming with us?"

"No. What do you think I came here for?"

"Don't worry, I have a way to leave."

"At least we have more options than you guys."

"Of course, if you don't want to leave, you can stay and help clean up any fish that slipped through the net."

"In addition, although it cannot be completely eliminated, I have found that small stabilizers can at least detour the path of the fog's spread."

"Insert all the stabilizers you brought to slow down the spread of the fog as much as possible."

"By the way, if you really intend to stay, then don't stray too far from me. Five hundred meters is the limit of my reaction distance."

"Any further away, I can't guarantee your safety."

As Roland spoke, he stood still and manipulated the Holy Sword to annihilate those entities that seemed to appear out of thin air.

However, although these entities have very high physical strength, they do require beings of the extraordinary level to deal with them.

But it seems to be the type of enemy with high defense and low health.

Once you can break through the defenses, dealing with it becomes very easy.

For example, someone like Roland, who possesses a holy sword, can destroy an entity if he can hit it.

This feeling is much easier to deal with than those shadowy monsters at sea.

Of course, this is ignoring the quantity.

Although Roland's rate of eliminating entities and the rate of entities generated by the mist are currently relatively equal, Roland can clearly feel that the rate at which the monsters in the mist are generating is starting to increase.

But it's not a big problem. Not to mention that I haven't gone all out yet, I'm not without help around me.

After Roland's words, all the members of the Thorn Squad chose to stay.

The squad of more than ten people had a clear division of labor at this moment. Some inserted stabilizers, while others provided cover and began to support their teammates, holding off any potential enemies. Even though their strength was not enough to deal with the enemy, they could still hold them off for a short time.

What they had to do was hold out until Roland discovered it, and then provide support.

After sending a distress message, Vice-Captain Reinitz also began to provide Captain Cologne with magical assistance.

As the only two members of the team at the Transcendent level, they are the ones who can actually help Roland get rid of some of the stragglers.

However, they soon realized that Roland was really thinking highly of them by letting them stay.

When the white-haired girl with a pair of curved dragon horns spread her dragon wings and flew into the sky, spewing down a dark purple dragon breath containing a terrifying aura of death, both the entity within the mist and the mist itself were reduced to nothingness by the scorching flames.

Suddenly, the fog, which hadn't had time to spread much outwards, began to shrink violently.

Roland's eyes lit up.

Having fused with a fragment of divinity, Roland could now clearly see the true power behind the dragon's breath's ability to dispel the mist—divinity.

Yes, although it was merely a possession, the power that Polysia was displaying at this moment did indeed contain an extremely pure and powerful divinity.

It was precisely these dragon breaths, imbued with divine power, that forcefully suppressed the spreading mist.

Meanwhile, Polycia, who was already proficient in using her power, did not start coughing after a couple of breaths. Instead, she flew through the air with ease, occasionally exhaling a breath of dragon's breath to suppress the range of the mist.

However, Roland soon realized the drawbacks of this approach.

Although Polycia's attack did suppress the spread of the mist and even eliminate it, the mist, which had been pushed back, began to spread again after the attack stopped.

It only encountered resistance to diffusion when its range was affected by the stabilizer's function, after which it chose to diffuse around to the other side. "Is this only a temporary solution, not a permanent one?"

"Based on current observations and some information revealed by the Demon King... the mist is essentially an external force; the mist is merely a manifestation of it, and it is not simply fog in essence."

"The energy emitted by the stabilizer is essentially reinforcing the current space structure."

"In other words... to dispel the fog, what we essentially need to do is ensure the stability of the space?"

Thinking of this, Roland recalled the spell the Demon King had once mentioned: the Spatial Stabilizing Anchor.

In the mouth of the Demon King, whose memories had not yet been fully restored, this was a somewhat useless skill.

Stabilize spatial instability caused by external forces.

That is the sole purpose of this technique.

At that time, on the sea, Flam used this technique to resolve the crisis.

He didn't know this technique himself, but... he had seen it before.

Although he didn't understand the structure of the technique, he could still discern some of the underlying principles.

Once the same principle is understood, it will not be an insurmountable difficulty or problem for Roland, who has almost completely mastered all runic magic.

"Boom!!!"

This was the first time Roland had gone all out after fusing with the divine fragments and fully recovering his body.

Although he did not use the power of the Holy Sword, with the passive blessing of the Eternal Runestone and the power of the Sun Runestone projection, Roland was already able to exert combat power close to that of a legendary rank.

A surge of magical and spiritual power emanated from Roland, and countless runes formed from magical power began to be anchored to the Great Source under the influence of his spiritual power.

As words connect with each other, sentences begin to form.

When sentences are strung together, paragraphs are formed.

Just as if the rules of the world were written by the gods, under Roland's control and with the blessing of the Rune King's Badge, countless strings began to take effect.

Countless runes circled around Roland, flew out, and then formed again.

After countless similar rune segments were formed, the mist that was originally spreading outward was immediately controlled by the rune magic cast by Roland.

"As expected... the technology used in the so-called stabilizer is exactly the same as the principle of the space stabilizing anchor."

"think carefully……"

After the situation had stabilized for the time being, Roland took out his previously recorded notes and began to review them.

The above are the runic characters he copied down after closely observing the structure of the stabilizer.

—Expelling those who do not belong to this world, stabilizing the boundaries of the world—this is the meaning of the runic characters that I can recognize.

The remaining rune sets are for amplification.

There were also some characters that he couldn't recognize. He initially thought they were demon script, but after wandering around Enwa, he realized that they were not demon script.

It seems we need to ask the person who left behind this technology.

As for now...

"Nina, please help clear away the remaining entities. I need to concentrate on dispelling the fog."

"Pollysia, keep spraying dragon breath, keep spraying wherever there's mist!"

After giving a brief instruction, Cellina quickly nodded and rushed out. Surrounded by golden light, she was like a large light source in the dim night, making it hard for anyone to take their eyes off her.

Meanwhile, Polusia accelerated the process of spewing dragon breath. Although she had to be careful to avoid Cellina, who was moving at high speed in the fog, it was generally a fairly easy and stress-relieving task.

With the combined efforts of the two, Roland continuously increased the power of the spell.

He has applied the spatial stabilizing anchor at least thirty times before the fog began to recede.

It wasn't that the spell used by this runic magic was ineffective, but rather that an unknown force was constantly eroding the runic magic released by Roland.

If these runes hadn't contained the faint divinity within Roland's magic, they would probably have been destroyed in an instant.

It's no wonder that a stabilizer is needed to function... Runes without a support are too easy to destroy.

However, this was not a problem for Roland, whose casting speed far exceeded the speed at which the force destroyed the integrity of the runic magic.

In less than three minutes, Roland had finished dispelling the fog.

Although he was mentally exhausted, he had gained a better understanding of the fog phenomenon.

For example, how does the evil god who inflicts disasters exert its influence?

In other words, as long as the breach in the evil god's power is sealed, the danger facing the demon race can be temporarily eliminated.

Roland had already imagined this method.

Since Enwa's spatial structure and magical environment are not very stable, we should try to stabilize them through external forces.

Behind Roland, Cologne, Reinitz, and even the entire Thorn Squad were stunned.

This sir actually managed to dispel the three-stage fog disaster all by himself!
