We arrived in front of the city gates and we can see a part of the walls, clearly, a big battle took place here, the walls were broken with a big hole in place and the city gates which were made of wood as thick as my body seen from the front was completely rotted and splintered.
The parts of the wall that weren't destroyed were scarred by many different types of attacks, but all we saw were ruins that from a long ti ago, there were moss and strange plants growing from the walls, and there were also clearly poisonous mushrooms growing from parts of the rotting gate of the City.
"Clearly a big battle took place here." (I)
"There are a lot of rare ingredients around here, it worries ." (Ivan)
"Like this?" (I)
"The mosses on the city walls are called ghost mosses, they grow in places with a lot of ectoplasm, this is a substance generated by Spectral-type undead." (Ivan)
"The plants along with the moss are another ingredient called Illusory herb, this plant grows by absorbing energy released from the spectral bodies." (Ivan)
"The mushrooms near the gate are mushrooms of despair, it grows by absorbing miasma in places where wailing moans are constantly heard." (Ivan)
"You learned a lot about ingredients..." (Irina)
"One of my wives from when I was still alive was a Combat Alchemist, she went to many dangerous places just to get rare ingredients, I always listened to her stories and saw many of these ingredients with her, plus my daughter also has many ingredients and is always reading alchemy books, she also talks about her research." (Ivan)
,m "I understand where you're going, you ended up learning a lot because of your coexistence with Alchemists of great talent." (I)
"No master, he's saying that all these ingredients are found in places where Ghosts gather, plus there's a lot of those ingredients here." (Hela)
"But the monsters at the gates we're seeing are Zombies." (Vanessa)
"I don't see any Ghosts." (I)
"They must be inside the city, let's finish off these Zombies first." (rica)
"< Fangs of the Infernal Beast > 15" (rica)
"< Purifying Light Spears > 21" (Vanessa)
Magic circles appear at the feet of the largest Zombies, these magic circles are the flaming jaws of a beast that rips the Zombies to pieces with a single bite as their bodies are incinerated until there is nothing left.
More than 20 magic circles appear on top of Vanessa's head lighting up the surroundings and drawing the attention of many undead in the surroundings who run towards us, so from these magic circles co 5 spears of condensed light from each one, just one attack from these spears of light defeats one of the weaker and more nurous Zombies that rica left for Vanessa to take care of.
"You two did well, now let's go into the city." (I)
As we continue to approach the city gate I use my lines coming out of my fingertips to collect the monster cores, I also take the opportunity to collect the alchemy ingredients that are plentiful in this area that Ivan talked about.
As soon as we passed through the gate I could already feel the difference in temperature, inside the city the temperature was a little lower and I noticed that the miasma was stronger.
I looked at the stone buildings in the surroundings, most of them were destroyed, but there were still so buildings in decent condition, there were strange trees and plants everywhere, the moss Ivan talked about earlier was everywhere we could see it, this ans that the number of Ghosts is Spectral-type Undead must be large.
It was strange to see a dead and dry forest inside a city as if it had swallowed the city, I also noticed that there were dry red spots on the walls, the wind blowing through the buildings, and trees seed to carry voices screaming for help.
"The curse energy is (2) or even (3) stronger within the city." (I)
"I can feel Ghosts around." (Hela)
"How many?" (I)
"Thousands are everywhere." (Hela)
I look up at the new sky and the 3 Suns at the top of the sky faintly, but the light barely reaches where we were, the fog was starting to beco a bigger impedint than expected.
A translucent creature cos out of rica's shadow and tries to grab her from behind, but I'm faster, I focus my Aura on my hand and grab the monster by the neck.
Soon I grip her neck so hard it breaks like it's made of glass, then her body scatters leaving just another core on the floor.
"Stay alert, they're coming." (I)
Because of the mist and the miasma in the surroundings, the monsters that were previously hidden began to appear little by little, there were many Ghosts of different types of monsters, but the most complicated was a Ghost with a maid outfit that used wind elent magic like Humans, she built magic circles quickly and was able to dodge everyone's attacks due to her speed.
In the end, it took an area attack to defeat this Undead, this Ghost was only Grade SS as predicted but it was very fast.
The other was a giant Spectral monster that devoured other Ghosts and Spirits, as soon as it appeared it ca towards or should I say towards my shadow, it seems that it felt Nix and wanted to devour her.
This monster was like a very fat person without a head, instead, it had a giant mouth in the barrel that could swallow whole.
His attack was a fog that caused hallucination and fired a bolt of paralyzing energy from his large mouth, Irius had to pretend to be paralyzed for the enemy to approach with the big mouth open only to be cut in half by a sword whose blade is glowing. with the elent of Light.
With so many battles going on in the middle of the day we took a long ti in the city, when it finally beca night and the light of the Suns disappeared completely we were already in the center of the small town where there were many mutilated body parts on the ground, they were just bone fragnts, but it was enough to imagine the massacre that took place there.
I looked around and everything was so dark with horrifying whispers in the wind possessed trees that moved strangely, it was at that mont when I looked around that I noticed sothing that made laugh.
"I just realized that so things have different anings depending on where you are." (I)
"What are you talking about, Father?" (Vanessa)
"In my old world, it was called Ghost Town when the city was empty or abandoned." (I)
"But in this world the aning is different, the na Ghost Town expresses its aning literally..." (I)
When night fell, many Ghosts and Spectral-type Undead began to appear from the ground, trees, buildings, and even so items while others that had turned into other races as cursed weapons.
Enemies blocked the sky with their sheer numbers, plus the environnt itself suddenly beca more terrifying.
The stains of dried blood turned to fresh blood running down the walls, and the whisper of help or pain that he heard whenever the wind blew could now be heard clearly all the ti.
Among the Ghosts were Specters who were intelligent spectral-type Undead who could control Ghosts, use spells or curses, and could steal their victims' vitality without needing to get close.
"I think this ti it might be a lot for these 5 to fight so many enemies, even more so with a smart one coordinating them." (I)
