Chapter 1727 Squad!

"What's so special about this place?" Zu Long raised an eyebrow.

“Of course there are. The things in this Ancient God Continent are extraordinary.” Ye Chuyun’s eyes burned with fervor.

This is his first target, the [Hand of Illusion].

The Hand of Illusion is hidden deep within this ancient god continent; it is something we must obtain.

The Hand of Illusion can upgrade life skills, unlock the Illusion Workshop, and even potentially materialize artifacts.

If we can obtain this item, the construction progress of the war fortress will surely advance by leaps and bounds.

"The Ancient God Continent is fraught with danger. The black mist is just the surface; the internal rules are distorted, and the spatial structure may be unstable. There are still unknown trials ahead," Ye Chuyun warned.

"Moreover, although this aerial continent is suspended in mid-air, one cannot fly freely in the void outside the land."

He pointed out the window: "Besides the continental fragments being able to float in the air on their own, this void is filled with an invisible, eroding wind."

"If you rashly leave the aircraft and expose yourself to the void, you will be torn apart by the gale in an instant and die without a complete corpse."

"Even for us, prolonged exposure would be extremely taxing and would make us very susceptible to losing our way."

"Therefore, the Narwhal spaceship is an indispensable shelter for us in this operation."

Upon hearing this, everyone carefully sensed the energy in the void and indeed found it to be unusually violent and chaotic, containing a hidden killing intent, which made them feel a chill.

It seems that flying here is not an option, at least not for now.

Moreover, apart from a few individuals, many people here do not have the ability to fly.

"Ye Wen, lock onto the coordinates of the Ancient God Continent and proceed at full speed," Ye Chuyun said.

"Yes, coordinates locked, distance approximately 3,700 kilometers, estimated full-speed travel time 45 minutes." Ye Wen quickly calculated and adjusted the course.

The cloud whale spaceship spewed flames from its tail once more, tearing through the void as it sped toward the ancient god continent shrouded in black mist.

During the voyage, Ye Chuyun shared the known information about the surrounding area and interior of the Ancient God Continent with everyone on the map, and began to conceive a specific exploration plan.

Forty-five minutes later, a huge shadow appeared in the void ahead.

It was a landmass far larger than ordinary floating continental fragments, with a flat, oval shape and an estimated diameter of over 500 kilometers.

A thick black fog, thousands of meters thick, enveloped the entire continent.

The black mist writhed as if alive, blocking most of the detection capabilities, making it impossible to see the specific situation inside the continent from the outside.

"A high-intensity energy barrier and a regular interference field have been detected. The black mist possesses corrosive energy, mental interference, and space distortion characteristics. The ship's rate of attrition is expected to increase more than five times after contact," Su Muyu reported.

"It's alright, the shields and outer shell of the Cloud Whale spaceship are strong enough to withstand it for a short time." Ye Chuyun waved his hand.

“Go straight through, Ye Wen. Find the docking points or entrance areas marked on the map. Usually, these types of continents will have passages for visitors.”

"Understood. Scanning weak points in the black fog and the structure of the continental edge..."

"Target detected on the southeastern edge of the mainland. The black fog concentration is relatively low, and there are regular square depressions on the ground, which may indicate a landing platform."

Ye Wen quickly made a discovery.

Ye Chuyun nodded slightly: "That should be it, let's rush over there."

The Narwhal spaceship adjusted its direction, its shield energy output increased to the maximum, and its surface shone with a strong light.

Then the bow of the ship plunged fiercely into the churning black fog in that area.

Chi Chi Chi!

The moment the ship's hull came into contact with the black mist, a piercing sound rang out, and the black mist was constantly corroding the shield.

The shield's light dimmed at a visible rate, and the energy reading dropped rapidly.

Moreover, red lightning bolts occasionally struck the shield from within the black mist, causing secondary damage.

Lightning continued to penetrate, and a small portion of it flowed into the bodies of the people after passing through the ship's hull. Those who were slightly weaker began to feel dizzy.

Ye Chuyun was prepared. With a wave of her hand, a beam of holy light shone down, instantly dispelling the aftershocks of lightning within everyone's bodies.

"Activate the Cloud Whale Protection, concentrate defense on the bow and bottom of the ship," Ye Chuyun calmly commanded.

A semi-transparent barrier appeared on the outer layer of the spaceship, overlapping with the original shield, instantly reducing the pressure.

The spaceship maintained its speed and stubbornly broke through the thick black fog.

Three minutes later, the spaceship finally arrived at its destination.

The spaceship successfully penetrated the black mist, revealing the huge square recessed platform below.

The platform is made of dark metal with strange runic markings on its edges.

Although covered in dust, its structure remains intact.

The platform connects to a wide avenue that extends deep into the mainland.

The Narwhal spacecraft was steadily docked in the center of the platform.

Looking out the window, everyone saw an even more magnificent view beyond the platform.

The interior of the Ancient God Continent was not shrouded in black mist like the exterior.

Conversely, although the sky was still obscured by the black fog above, making it appear somewhat gloomy, no black fog intruded.

"We've arrived." Ye Chuyun opened the hatch and stepped off the spaceship first.

Everyone followed, curiously and warily observing this mysterious continent.

Ye Chuyun turned around and faced the assembled crowd.

"Alright, now we need to discuss the next steps in our plan."

"The Ancient God Continent is full of opportunities, and there are five trials."

"We need to split up and tackle these five challenges simultaneously."

"Only after all five trials have been overcome will the path to the final treasure land be revealed."

Ye Chuyun glanced at everyone and began to assign teams.

"The first team only had me, so it was the most difficult."

He then looked at Zu Long.

"The second team, led by Senior Zu Long, is of the next highest difficulty. Team members: Bai Hang, Cai Kun, Xu Meng, Tian Mengxue..."

Ye Chuyun ordered seven or eight people in one go.

"The third team is led by Senior Kurosawa..."

"The fourth team, led by Senior Moro..."

"The fifth team will be led by Hongbao and Ye Mingyu." Ye Chuyun glanced at the two troublemakers, her tone serious.

"The difficulty is relatively low. Team members: Xiong Yuntao, Qiao Shanyun, Chu Yunlan..." He specifically pointed out Xiong Yuntao.

"Xiong Yuntao, keep an eye on the two of them and don't let them cause any trouble. Your missions are equally important."

Hongbao pursed her lips, but did not object.

Ye Mingyu nodded gently.

Xiong Yuntao patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, Alliance Leader, I've got it covered."

Ye Chuyun solemnly instructed everyone, "Our primary goal is to pass the test and create conditions for opening the final passage."

"If you find opportunities or materials that are suitable for yourself or your team during the process, you may acquire them at your discretion, but safety must be the top priority."

"The flow of time on the continent in the air seems to be slightly different from that on the ground, but the exact ratio is unknown. We need to hurry."

"After passing the test, try to return to this platform to reunite, or maintain contact through the Lingxi Channel established by Su Muyu and wait for the next instructions."

"Each team should check their equipment and supplies, and depart separately in ten minutes as planned."
