Chapter 111: Call for help signal

After taking a rest and stabilizing his emotions, Cheez began to evaluate the gains and losses of this mission.
Let's start with the gains. The biggest gain for him this time was that he managed to increase the energy collection accuracy of the simulator to about 21%, which was more than any previous attacks he had experienced.
During their escape, a large number of monsters in the mud pit below gradually died, and Cheez was surprised to find that such a small pool could hide so many monsters.
And also, the unexpected discovery that the Black Sludge Monster has a different dangerous reaction to the Death Curse; Various traces show that the Welfare Family is not simply a victim, they definitely have major issues; The origins of the monsters are related to the eerie rift, which leads to an unknown destination, but it makes Chiz feel very dangerous; And there are many undiscovered secrets hidden in the mystery realm, such as the sudden appearance of giant monsters and so on.
There is nothing else.
As for what was lost, it is not particularly much. The snake monster venom that had been accumulated for a long time has been completely used up. It is almost impossible to use venom for such a large-scale monster slaughter next time.
You need to know that these venom are accumulated from the time Qizhao captured the snake monster, and it's going to take a long time to extract so much from the snake monster that is already on its last breath.
Moreover, he dare not continue to play around in other mud pools. If every deep spot hides a monster like this, no matter how many chis he goes to it won't be enough for them to kill.
This also means that if a new and more efficient way to hunt monsters cannot be found, Chiz's progress in leveling up will be difficult to improve, after all, ordinary swords are difficult to effectively damage monsters.
Also, his two giant werewolves were seriously injured, which is nothing, no matter how much he lost.
He also needs to consider one thing, whether the new monster that suddenly attacked him earlier is the only one, and if it is still looking for him. If this thing is wandering around the secret realm, Qiz would not be able to guarantee his safety. For the sake of safety, he needs to consider whether to end this mission in advance.
……
As he pondered, the fluorescent bottle by his side flashed for the fourth time with white light, and only then did he realize that he had been in the secret realm for two days. In other words, he had gone without sleep for a full two days.
Before I didn't know, it was fine. But now that I suddenly remembered, sleepiness surges up in waves, and my brain feels rusty and can't function.
He needs to take a good rest to ensure he has enough energy for the upcoming actions.
……
Chi Z is awakened by a burst of rapid red flashing. He has probably slept for four or five hours, and waking up he feels refreshed and clear-minded, except for the annoying flashing red light from the fluorescent bottle.
"Is there anyone in distress? Should we go take a look?"
He pondered over the fluorescent bottle for a moment and finally decided to go and check it out. If he could meet Blanka, he would tell her the information he obtained and discuss with her before deciding whether to end the mission early or not.
However, he is not particularly anxious. If this person has encountered the monster that attacked him earlier, going now would be suicidal. If not, he should be able to hold on a little longer.
Before leaving, Qiz visited the prison cell where the snake monster was being held again. He had run out of all the venom in his hands and wanted to see if he could squeeze some more out.
The guy was twisted into a round shape by Qiz's sadistic sense of humor, making it look a bit like the Holy Lord.
It kept extending and retracting its tongue through the small hole left by the iron helmet, seemingly sensing Chiz's proximity. Although its skeletal structure was tightly locked, its muscles began to tremble involuntarily.
Keez opened the iron chin of the central head of the circular snake dish, and the snake monster's big mouth gradually expanded with the iron chin. He checked the production of venom in the venom sac because it had been harvested not long ago, and there was only a small amount of venom left inside.
After squeezing out the few drops of venom from its fangs and collecting them in a bottle, Qiz patted the enormous helmet on its head.
"Good girl! If you don't want to die, you need to work hard in producing venom!"
Not knowing if it understood, the snake monster's body trembled violently again.
Chiz lifted its head and grabbed a large iron bucket next to it, shoving a huge funnel into its throat and pouring in a dark, sticky substance – a nutrient solution specially prepared for the snake monster, consisting of leftover meat from Alistair and some medicinal ingredients that aid in accelerating venom production.
After feeding the snake creature, Kees made some preparations before leaving the suitcase, taking only a small number of toxins with him.
Considering that Lancelot cannot assist him for a long time, he also carried all the explosive bottles and some useful potions with him. He also selected a few giant werewolves and placed them in an easily accessible position, ready to wake them up and throw them out to attract attention in critical moments.
…………
The black mist outside became even denser, and Chiz raised the fluorescent bottle high above his head after taking out the suitcase.
The flashing red light from the fluorescent bottle seemed to have reached its limit, only able to illuminate less than half the range compared to when they just entered.
Around, the black mist has undergone new changes. Chi Zi raised one hand and carefully felt it. There seemed to be a mysterious breeze in the secret realm, and most of the black mist illuminated by the light seemed to be constantly rolling under the breeze.
He took a few steps forward, and the surrounding black mist formed small whirlwinds as he moved.
In just a few seconds, his exposed skin felt a slight burning sensation, and the already sparse magical energy in the environment seemed to become even thinner. Even the recently replenished magical energy in his body had a tendency to dissipate to the outside world, although it wasn't particularly noticeable.
Chiz immediately realized that the situation was not good. If the black mist continued to thicken or undergo any other changes, it could further hinder their actions.
The bubble spell that Chiz had re-cast before coming out was now also unstable. Chiz furrowed his brow and tightened his grip on his wand to reinforce it once again.
It is even more difficult to cast spells now, as if someone has applied a layer of magical suppressant on his wand, which feels very uncomfortable.
"What is happening? It has deteriorated so much in just a few hours. Could it be because I released something deadly?"
Chiz's mood is very heavy, and now he is thinking about finding the person who sent the distress signal as soon as possible to see if Blanca is with him. If she is not, she must find another way to let her know about the news of the new monster.
He lifted his head and stared at the fluorescent bottle that flickered with red light. He saw the luminous liquid inside gathering and flickering in one direction, indicating the position of the player who shattered the bottle.
Without further delay, he cautiously started moving towards that direction.
