The fog was as dense as ever.

If Liao Fan was not careful, he might fall into another trap!

Although he had a torch in his hand, there was no sense of security.

Liao Fan clearly remembered the woman’s miserable fate.

It was terrifying and strange at the same time.

Liao Fan slowed down a little.

One hundred and eighty enhanced torches were enough to last him the entire day!

[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for exploring 15% of this area. ]

Upon hearing this, Liao Fan took out the map and continued to update it.

This map was very important. It consisted of all the locations, routes, and contents that Liao Fan had come across.

[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for obtaining resin *1 ]

The sound of notifications continued to ring in his ears.

One of the villagers was collecting resin from not too far away!

Resin was a very important basic resource.

It could be used to make plastics, rubber, and various household items.

Just as Liao Fan was about to set off to fish in the stream, he heard a sound.

*Crack.*

His feet had stepped on a hard object.

He looked down.

It was a bone.

The bone definitely did not belong to a human!

*Whoosh.*

There was a cold wind. It was bone-chilling.

Liao Fan felt very uneasy.

After all, anything could happen in the fog.

He composed himself and picked up the torch.

Then, he looked around. 

The surroundings were very quiet. There were no movements either.

Liao Fan furrowed his brows and reminded his villagers to be careful.

Both of the villagers held the iron axe tightly in their hands.

They were also very nervous.

..

*Crack.*

Another crisp sound could be heard.

It was obviously another bone!

Liao Fan saw that there were dozens of bones lying on the ground.

Some of them had not completely decomposed, while others were decapitated.

It was a bloody mess. 

Liao Fan felt like he had just arrived in hell!

“Tsk…”

He took a deep breath.

‘A terrifying monster must be living here.’

Suddenly, Liao Fan’s eyes widened.

One of the corpse’s internal organs was also hollowed out!

It was exactly the same as the previous woman!

“Oh my God…”

The second villager uttered nervously. He was even sweating. His entire forehead was wet!

“Wait!”

Liao Fan dared not act rashly. 

Clearly, this place was dangerous.

However, he also made a discovery.

He proceeded to walk forward cautiously!

His vision gradually became clearer. 

‘There must be a treasure chest nearby!’

As he stared at the ground, the system’s synthesis options appeared.

[ Advanced Materials: Alloy mineral water, black python tendon ]

[ Do you want to proceed? ]

[ Increase: Strength +1 ]

[ Upgrade Requirements: Alloy mineral water, stone, wood, villagers, black python tendons, gushing spring water, et cetera. ]

[ 1. Super Alloy Shield Soldier: A warrior with superior strength and defense. ]

[ 2. Crossbow God: A warrior with a powerful ranged attack. ]



More and more options began to appear.

Liao Fan was so excited that he was trembling.

He had never seen these formulas before.

Since these options appeared in front of his eyes, that meant there must be precious resources nearby.

This area was high risk and high reward.

Liao Fan could also smell an unpleasant stench. 

It was rotten and stinky!

Such a pungent smell would make anyone feel nauseous!

Nonetheless, it did not stop Liao Fan from advancing!

He had to find these resources!

Otherwise, he would never be able to conquer the fog!

Cowering was not a manly trait at all!

Liao Fan was a careful person, not a wimp.

If he was not courageous, he would not have gone out to explore on the first day itself.

Even when his mark was destroyed, Liao Fan did not lose his rationality.

This was also a form of bravery!

Like now, he knew that he was putting himself in jeopardy, but the rewards outweigh the danger.

Besides, as long as he had his torches, the monster in the fog would not be able to harm him. 

This was why he dared to be so bold.

Liao Fan hastened his footsteps. 

He continued to step on the bones under his feet. 

It was impossible to tell if they belonged to a human or not.

Thirty seconds passed.

Liao Fan suddenly stopped. 

He spotted a silver treasure chest!

It was square-shaped.

Also, it was not very big. Compared to the treasure chest, it was only about one-tenth of the size.

‘I don’t think there’s a lot of resources inside.’

[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for discovering a Silver Treasure Chest! ]

[ Do you want to open it? ]

“Yes!”

Liao Fan instantly made up his mind!

[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for obtaining alloy mineral water *1, black python tendon *1 ]

There were only two items.

The alloy mineral water was stored in a glass bottle the size of a finger. It was a transparent, colorless liquid.

Without the system’s notification, Liao Fan would have never guessed what it was.

Now, he can evolve one of his villagers into a ‘Super Alloy Shield Soldier’!

Liao Fan glanced at the second villager who was behind him. 

Then, he placed the alloy mineral water into his inventory.

He was not in a hurry to use it.

As for the black python tendon, it should be one of the materials needed to evolve his villager into a ‘Crossbow God’. 

This trip was really worth it.

Anyway, the resin collection was still in progress.

Now, Liao Fan only needed to go fishing for some food. 

Everything was going smoothly!

‘15% of the area had been explored and two precious items were gained.

‘I even got an extra thatched cottage and a rare cyan stone.’

All of a sudden, Liao Fan heard a heart-wrenching roar!

Then, a pitch-black figure dashed out from the mist!
