Deities: Starting From Goblins Chapter 1249

Chapter 1249: Chapter 688 Black Myth_2 Chapter 1249: Chapter 688 Black Myth_2 “What are you all staring at with such wide eyes like copper bells? I truly have none left.” Elder Talon Skyler keenly caught the unusual gaze of those around him, his brows furrowing as he retorted with a touch of displeasure in his voice. He disliked being ogled as if a rare beast on exhibit, especially when he himself hadn't done anything wrong.

Hearing this, the Sect Disciples exchanged looks, then calmly withdrew their probing eyes. Although puzzled, they respected Elder Talon Skyler's imposing manner and refrained from asking out loud, choosing not to press further, but they muttered among themselves, “Elder Talon Skyler's reaction is quite over-the-top, and we haven't even said a thing!”

The atmosphere suddenly turned subtle, and upon seeing this, Logan cleared his throat to break the silence, “Alright, don't just stand there, let's prepare to board the ship.” His words carried an unquestionable authority, prompting everyone to start moving, organizing their gear, and getting ready to embark.

However, just as Logan was about to lead everyone onto the ship, Elder Talon Skyler suddenly blocked his path. Startled, Logan looked at Elder Talon Skyler with confusion, “Elder Talon, what is it?”

Elder Talon Skyler's expression was grave as he slowly spoke, “Logan, there are some things I want to discuss with you.” His tone conveyed an earnest seriousness that made Logan also sober up and listen intently.

“Regarding that item, I indeed took it from you, but I did not mean to conceal it. The situation was urgent at the time, and I grabbed it without thinking, only to lack any opportunity to tell you after.” Elder Talon Skyler explained, a flicker of apology in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Logan suddenly understood, and any misunderstanding vanished in an instant. He patted Elder Talon Skyler's shoulder, laughing, “Haha, so that's what happened. I wronged you. Don't worry, between brothers like us, this little matter is nothing.”

Elder Talon Skyler nodded, a silent sigh of relief escaping him. He knew Logan was magnanimous and wouldn't hold onto such trifles, but still felt it was essential to clarify to avoid any future misunderstandings.

With the misunderstanding between them dispelled, the mood lightened once more. Logan led everyone onto the ship that would start a new voyage. As the vessel slowly drifted away from the shore, everyone's excitement swelled. They knew that unknown challenges and opportunities awaited, but as long as they stayed united, nothing could stop their progress.

Onboard, Logan and Elder Talon Skyler stood side by side, gazing into the distance with determination and anticipation in their eyes, as if they could already see the glittering future ahead. Around them, the Sect Disciples discussed the upcoming adventure or shared amusing anecdotes, their laughter and chatter filling the cabin.

As the ship continued its journey, they faced a variety of challenges and hardships. Yet no matter what adversity they encountered, Logan and Elder Talon Skyler used their wisdom and courage to guide everyone through. Their tacit understanding and trust grew with each ordeal, becoming an indispensable pillar in the hearts of their companions.

Eventually, when they returned triumphant from their exploratory mission, everyone held deep admiration and gratitude for Logan and Elder Talon Skyler. They knew that it was under the guidance of these two leaders that they achieved such a resounding success. And the small item that sparked the misunderstanding became a symbol of their friendship, treasured deep within their hearts.

“There's one more place we need to visit, Mist City! Have any of you heard of it?” The leading man, Logan, spoke with a hint of mystery and anticipation, his eyes sweeping over the faces of the group, trying to catch a glimpse of surprise or curiosity.

“Mist City?” A young Sect Disciple frowned, seemingly familiar with the name, “Isn't that the legendary place that leads to the Spirit World? It's said to be shrouded in thick fog all year round, making it difficult for outsiders to find an entrance.”

“Exactly, it's that Mist City.” Logan nodded affirmatively, determination shining in his eyes, “Mist City holds the barrier that leads to the Spirit World, the critical point of our adventure. But the situation there is far more complex than you imagine.”

He paused, then continued, “Most people there are Half-demon Half-human, possessing the dual bloodlines of humans and Demon Beasts, and thus they are extremely cautious of outsiders. If we want to enter Mist City, we must disguise ourselves to blend in.”

As his words fell, he took out a pile of animal hides and intricately made beast-shaped masks from his backpack. These masks were so lifelike it seemed they could instantly transform a human face into that of a Demon Beast.

“Look, these are our disguises,” Logan explained while showing off the masks, “Only with these disguises can we enter Mist City safely, without being detected by the Half-demon beings.”

The others in the team exchanged surprised glances, clearly taken aback by Logan's suggestion. Although they had heard legends of Mist City, they had never imagined they would one day set foot in that mysterious place.

“Are we going to see the City Lord?” a Sect Disciple asked doubtfully, “Why do we need to see him? Is he the key figure to the Spirit World?”

“You guessed correctly,” Logan nodded, “The City Lord is the most powerful person in Mist City and the only one who knows how to navigate to the depths of the Spirit World. Only with his permission can we have the chance to reach the deepest parts to seek out the legendary treasure.”

He spoke each word with conviction, leaving no room for doubt. However, the people from other Sects looked at him with skepticism, wondering if Elder Talon Skyler could be deceiving them.

“Elder Talon Skyler, this isn't really a funny joke,” a Sect Disciple couldn't help but say, “If you're lying to us, you know the consequences. We don't want to be stuck in a dangerous situation because of your prank.”

Logan's expression grew stern upon hearing this; he knew he hadn't fully convinced everyone. So, he took a deep breath and said slowly, “I understand your concerns, but please believe me, every word I say is true. Mist City does exist, and the City Lord truly is our key to the Spirit World. If we can successfully meet with the City Lord and get his assistance, the likelihood of success for this expedition will greatly increase.”

His sincere and firm tone caused the others to waver. Seeing the confidence in Logan's eyes, they couldn't help but feel a surge of trust.

“Alright, we believe you,” finally, a Sect Disciple spoke up, “But we must ensure our safety. Before entering Mist City, we need to prepare thoroughly and make sure nothing goes wrong.”

Logan nodded in agreement. He knew this adventure was fraught with the unknown and dangerous, but if they stood united and faced the challenges together, they would surely reach their destination.

Thus, everyone got busy preparing. They dressed in animal hides and put on their beast-shaped masks, disguising themselves as Demon Beasts. Under Logan's leadership, they cautiously made their way through the dense forest, following a winding path towards Mist City.

As they ventured deeper, the scenery around them became eerily different. Dense fog hung in the air, like a thick veil obscuring the road ahead. They could only rely on Logan's guidance and the map in their hands, advancing with difficulty.
