"Just as Kamil said, the winds here are in a special state."
The Soft Wind, Fuyi, entered the Mist Battlefield and immediately felt an atmosphere distinct from the outside.
Although there was still wind here, the wind seemed to be split into countless segments; you could only perceive the wind around you.
As soon as you walked a few more steps, the familiar wind from before changed its nature again.
It seemed as if the entire Mist Battlefield was in an unstable space, where each step transported you to a different location, rather than a continuous and complete path.
Therefore, the wind perceived by Fuyi was quite fragmented.
However, even if the wind felt disconnected, it didn’t mean the wind was actually interrupted. Its essence remained continuous; the contradictory situation was very likely due to external intervention.
As for what kind of force it was, considering the words of the Dangross group and the past information obtained from Mr. Feng about the Wizard World, Fuyi had a vague answer in mind.
It paused for a moment and controlled a strand of soft wind casually, attempting to send a message outward.
But when the strand of wind entered the mist, it didn’t leave the battlefield; instead, it vanished.
Fuyi seemed to have anticipated this phenomenon and, after pondering briefly, chose not to experiment further. It directly ventured into the depths of the mist.
During the journey, Fuyi encountered no danger, yet the mist enveloped it all around, as if it had entered a misty cage. If it weren’t for its ability to detect the scent of wind at different stages, it might have wondered whether it was standing still.
It kept walking, seemingly walking aimlessly, yet in truth... it was indeed walking aimlessly.
It had a general direction in mind for its search but hadn’t yet found the right timing. So, it decided to wander around, measuring this peculiar mist with its steps.
After walking for about three minutes, Fuyi stopped.
"Hmm... familiar wind, but not a familiar place." A glint of joy appeared in Fuyi’s eyes; unlike others trapped without escape, its understanding of wind far surpassed the illusionist’s arrangements.
Therefore, even though Angel took all considerations, including energy interception, element distribution...etc., into account when setting up the illusionary realm to make 99% of those trapped feel confused, before the true essence of "wind," clues to breakthrough could still be found.
Like now, after wandering aimlessly, Fuyi smelled the familiar wind.
And from the familiar wind, it sensed the paths the wind once traveled.
Even though the illusion was constantly changing, the essence of the wind would not change. It simply needed to encounter the segments of wind along different paths to gradually understand the entire illusion.
This was indeed Fuyi’s plan.
Proven feasible, as it sensed the familiar wind, its mood gradually became lighter, following the wind’s path forward.
Around five minutes later, a vague wind trail formed in Fuyi’s mind.
Many scenes within the trail emerged before its eyes.
In the incomplete scenes, it finally saw things besides mist.
It was a wind-type creature, shaped like a green-black wind eye. Fuyi had never seen a similar wind-type creature on Wind Island before; undoubtedly, this should be one of Hurricane’s subordinate brought to conquer Wind Island.
The wind eye silently stayed in the mist, looking left and right, seemingly waiting for something.
Fuyi thought for a moment, turning its body into an invisible wind, drifting close to the wind eye along the wind trail.
As it emerged from the mist, excitement flickered in the single eye of the wind eye, and it couldn’t help but approach. But when it recognized the incoming as Fuyi, disappointment clearly reflected in its pupil.
"So it’s Prince Soft Wind." Despite its disappointment, the wind eye secretly sighed in relief. Should it encounter other wind creatures from White Cloud Village, it wouldn’t fare well, but as long as it didn’t provoke Soft Wind, a prominent being like Fuyi, the wind eye knew it wouldn’t endure any hardship.
The wind eye was indeed wise, as Fuyi had no intention of dealing with it but came to inquire about the Mist Battlefield.
The wind eye didn’t hide anything, narrating its experiences wholly. It hoped Prince Soft Wind could take it away from here, even if it meant capture by Wind Island.
However, Fuyi hadn’t found a way out itself, let alone able to bring the wind eye along. So, after listening to its experiences, Fuyi turned to leave.
The haste in its departure resulted from two aspects: firstly, the wind eye lacked useful information, only confirming the strength enveloping the Mist Battlefield; secondly, because Fuyi smelled familiar wind again, and this time from the wind trail, it saw a familiar figure.
One of Hurricane’s four great wind commanders—Komira.
The wind trail indicated that Komira was constantly moving, and if not pursued quickly, Komira might leave the wind trail again.
Within seconds, Fuyi, going full throttle, finally witnessed the massive tri-headed creature resembling a small hill in the distance—it was Komira.
As it approached Komira, intending to communicate, close observation revealed that Komira was unlike the previous wind eye, free-thinking, and mobile; it seemed to be trapped in some kind of hallucination, completely ignoring everything around it, walking mindlessly in Mist Battlefield as the wind blew.
Fuyi studied Komira’s situation closely and discovered something slightly horrifying.
Upon entering the Mist Battlefield, Fuyi immediately felt the enveloping energy within. After verifying some facts along with its analysis, it discerned this Mist Battlefield was likely shrouded by a powerful illusionary realm.
In other words, the Mist Battlefield originated from an illusion crafted by a human called Angel.
Previously, Fuyi believed the illusion’s persistence relied on Angel continuously expending energy, but upon seeing Komira, it realized its assumption was incorrect.
On Komira, Fuyi identified a connection echoing the aura of the illusionary realm.
This illusionary realm was set by Angel, but its maintenance wasn’t through Angel; instead, it was Komira.
Relying solely on Komira’s power might not suffice; perhaps aside from Komira, other wind commanders also functioned as similar "energy suppliers."
If this were truly the case, Fuyi contemplated a way to dismantle the illusionary realm.
By directly removing these energy suppliers, without subsequent energy supply, this illusion would naturally dissipate.
Yet how to remove them? If one did not comprehend illusions, there was but one method—to kill the energy suppliers completely.
With this thought, Fuyi couldn’t help but gasp.
With Hurricane currently trapped within the Mist Illusion, it believed, considering Hurricane’s strength, if it encountered Komira in the Mist Battlefield, it would certainly discern this information.
