The sudden chaos within the assembly site caught Wen Yu's attention, and soon Ray brought Soot Skin to Wen Yu.

After Soot Skin reported the events inside the Insect Tribe's cave to Wen Yu, Wen Yu's mood could be best described as terrible.

"Sir, what do you think..."

Soot Skin cautiously asked, clearly holding onto the hopeful vision that Wen Yu might save some of the Insect Tribe.

However, worse was yet to come.

Before Wen Yu could finish considering how to handle the situation, a strange scent, as if perfume was sprayed on feces, assaulted his senses!

Wen Yu frowned and looked down.

When he saw tiny wisps of green air rising from the ground, Wen Yu immediately understood that it was already too late to do anything...

The toxic mist had spread into the assembly site from underground, through the soil!

Seeing this, Soot Skin decisively stopped speaking, his two massive forelimbs trembling slightly, as if in fear, while Ray's face turned pale.

It was obvious what would happen once the toxins spread from underground to the surface layer...

Sure enough, in the blink of an eye when the green light rose, the assembly site erupted into greater chaos — countless Third-level and below mutant creatures frantically chased after the green mist, greedily inhaling the rising green smoke, then were entirely corroded by the toxins, turning into even more intense sources of the Plague!

In just a moment, the entire New Hope Assembly Site became a Plague Hell.

Watching the low-grade mutant beasts go mad and the above Level 4 creatures stand at a loss around him, Wen Yu was silent for a while, then unexpectedly gave a bitter laugh.

"What a trick..."

Now, Wen Yu already guessed why the Level Lock was opened so far in advance and also realized what the code name of Plague, which only existed in the data and had never appeared, had done...

For these things happening outside the assembly site, Wen Yu was simply unable to reach them!

"What can be done?"

Ray, eyes dazed, watched the New Hope Assembly Site in complete disarray. Helpless mutterings escaped his mouth but received no response at all.

What can be done? Wen Yu also had no better solution for such a situation — when the toxins seeped out from underground, all surface low-grade mutant beasts were already fully infected by the Plague. In just a few seconds, they would become part of the Plague, and the time was too short for Wen Yu to save them!

As for the Demon Beast Corpses and above Level 4 mutant beasts, they were completely unconcerned by the Plague. The light green Plague was at most a bit unpleasant, and Wen Yu simply didn't need to do anything for them.

Can't help the low-grade, and don't need to help the high-grade...

An unspeakable awkwardness filled Wen Yu's heart. After a while, Wen Yu sighed lightly: "Find some professionists or mutant beasts with purification or flame abilities and see if they can deal with these things."

Ray silently nodded, turning and walking toward the distance.

...

The chaos came swiftly and left just as quickly.

In less than a minute, all the chaos in the assembly site ceased — except for a few low-grade flying mutant beasts, all remaining low-grade life forms were completely corroded by the Plague!

The dense green light spread within Wen Yu's Pitch-dark Barrier, and Wen Yu listened to the cries and wails inside the assembly site with an expressionless face, eventually turning all into a sigh. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Underground, Wen Yu naturally had defenses set up. In fact, Wen Yu's Pitch-dark Barrier was a gigantic sphere, encapsulating both above and below ground, but the Plague had merged with the river water, integrating into the river, with no life fluctuations or energy response. Wen Yu's Pitch-dark Barrier couldn't automatically identify these viruses hidden in the water — this was the fundamental reason for the disaster.

Moreover, the worse part was that these green toxic mists didn't affect the Demon Tribe in the slightest! Just looking at the Demon Beast Corpses in the assembly site that hadn't been disposed of, with no change despite the toxic smoke's corrosion, Wen Yu could speculate that this toxic mist was solely designed for Earth's life forms.

Just with the Level 6 Level Lock broken, the Demon Tribe had already presented a great gift to the New Hope Assembly Site!

However, this still wasn't the worst of it...

When the green light dissipated over the New Hope Assembly Site, the Demon Realm's Gate outside seemed to respond to the Plague, almost simultaneously undergoing a change!

The erupting demonic qi clouds quickly diluted and dwindled until they vanished completely, and inside the Demon Realm's Gate, shadowy figures loomed, followed by a three-meter-long, leg as thick as a Stone Pillar stepping out from within.

With a "rumble," the ground shook, countless dense cracks spread from the massive foot, and a high-pitched voice sounded from within the Demon Realm's Gate.

"Warriors! Charge with me!"

The next moment, a nearly ten-meter-high beast, resembling a rhinoceros with a single horn and covered in gray scales, stepped out of the Demon Realm's Gate. Atop the beast, a nearly three-meter-high brawny Ancient Demon spawn held up an iron flail, letting out a thunderous roar.

Then, the Ancient Demon Knight squeezed his legs tightly, and the beast beneath, receiving the signal from the Knight, immediately moved its massive limbs, exhaling thick white air from its nostrils and mouth, with blood-red eyes charging wildly towards the place where the Black Light surged in the distance!

Behind the demon spawn knight, more knights surged out from within the Demon Realm's Gate, following closely behind the lead Ancient Demon spawn, resembling a tidal wave of steel, in an instant trampling down the low-grade demon spawn group surrounding the New Hope Assembly Site, directly charging into the Almighty Demon Vine's defense range!

...

When the demonic qi ceased spewing forth, sensing the powerful presences surging out from within the Demon Realm's Gate, Wen Yu silently flew up the city wall, looking towards the direction of the surging presences.

What met his eyes was the scene of the Demon Tribe's Level 6 cavalry army fiercely charging the Almighty Demon Vine.

The emerald green vines sensed the stronger demonic presence, rising immediately, countless thick vines clawing furiously, rapidly sweeping towards the Heavy Armored Knights.

However, the Demon Tribe's Level 6 Heavy Armored Knights in the vanguard were truly not comparable to those low-grade demon spawns.

The lead Ancient Demon Spawn emitted a "jiejie" strange laugh, countless wind blades condensed around his body, instantly slicing all surrounding vines to pieces, forcefully opening up a path to the New Hope Assembly Site for the comrades behind.

Watching the Almighty Demon Vine being violently crushed by the Demon Tribe Knights, Wen Yu took a deep breath.

These Level 6 giants would indeed be the final test of this trip to Africa...
