Chapter 71: The Real Mistwood, So Everything Before Was Just the Beginner’s Village!
“Hu~”
Lynn let out a long breath.
The unnecessary noises that had been surging within his divine sense finally cald down completely.
He could now finally understand why, in his past life, those immortals were always going into seclusion for closed-door cultivation.
Once the range of his divine sense expanded to ten thousand ters, the amount of information beca explosively vast!
Without the functions of blocking and filtering, he simply wouldn’t have been able to bear it!
In fact—
These functions weren’t sothing Lynn conjured up out of thin air.
Back during his first ascension, when his divine sense had just begun to expand,
Lynn’s subconscious had already started filtering information.
Things like how the leaves drifted, or how bugs fought—such trivial matters,
He had long since stopped paying attention to them.
His focus had basically locked onto the townspeople and the monitoring of potential dangers.
This ti, he had rely refined the filtering process to specifically screen out the various kinds of human-related information.
It ca naturally, smooth and familiar.
“This feels so comfortable!”
Lynn felt that his consciousness was much clearer now,
As if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
Only then did he have the leisure to properly take a look at the vast expanse newly covered by his divine sense.
But with just one glance, he was utterly astonished!
“Eh? What is this thing…”
Lynn’s divine sense probed deep underground.
Roughly six kiloters away from the Handicraft Zone of the small town, within a hilly area,
He found a dense, heavy vein.
It was dark, intricate, and carried the cold, tallic texture of ore.
It wound through the underground, stretching for several kiloters!
“Iron ore!”
“This is actually a large iron ore vein!”
Lynn’s heart surged with joy.
This was truly like getting a pillow just when one wanted to sleep!
For all the ti since Holy Light Town’s developnt began, iron had always been a weak point.
Weapons, farm tools, nails—what didn’t require iron?
They had all been purchased from Oak Town at high prices, or “generously sponsored” by Old John.
The cost was high, not to ntion the dependency on others.
But with this iron vein, self-sufficiency was no longer a dream!
“The distance isn’t far, only six kiloters.”
“If I organize so miners to extract it, even building a long-term outpost there wouldn’t be an issue—I could keep constant watch over it.”
“As for transportation…”
Lynn quickly calculated the potential risks along the route.
His divine sense swept through the area along the way.
The ghouls had long been nearly wiped out, and the scattered few that remained posed no threat.
As for ordinary wild beasts—
To humans in this world who had mastered extraordinary power, they weren’t any real threat at all.
Even an ordinary First-tier formal Knight could easily kill tigers or black bears.
And even large creatures like elephants wouldn’t stand a chance against an elite Knight.
“Wait a minute…”
A sudden thought struck Lynn.
“Wasn’t it said that Mistwood was teeming with magical beasts?”
“Why is it that within my active range, I haven’t seen a single trace of them—only normal wild animals?”
He hadn’t thought much of it before,
Assuming the outer area was simply safer.
But now that his divine sense’s range was so vast, there should at least be so clues, shouldn’t there?
Driven by curiosity,
Lynn directed his divine sense like a searchlight, sweeping deeper into the forest.
And with just that one sweep, the truth was revealed!
“Damn!”
“So we’ve been wandering in the ‘beginner’s village’ all this ti!”
At the edge of Lynn’s divine sense range—
Roughly nine kiloters away—
The once-clear woodland view suddenly beca shrouded in a thick, impenetrable white mist!
That mist churned and rolled, carrying an eerie, cold, and sinister aura.
It was the signature of Mistwood—the miasma!
“The area shrouded in miasma—that’s the real Mistwood!”
Lynn suddenly understood everything.
The area where Holy Light Town was located, including their previous range of activity,
Was rely the outermost outer edge of Mistwood!
It was the very border of the safe zone!
They hadn’t even touched the edge of the miasma!
No wonder there were no magical beasts appearing.
