Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem - Chapter 1561 - 525: The Old Witch’s Terms, Snatching Her!
Cao Xing furrowed his brows, “Again, someone by my side? Can’t it be me?”
The Old Witch slowly shook her head, “No, it can only be him.”
“Of course, this condition won’t affect him.”
“On the contrary, it might even bring him considerable benefits.”
Yet Cao Xing was skeptical, “Is there really such a good deal?”
“Forget it, let’s cut to the chase. I agree with you, just help me bring Eliza back.”
For Cao Xing, the Eternal Frozen Sea was a concern for later.
During this period, he could continue to develop and enhance his power.
But Eliza’s situation was different.
The entity within the mist, who knows where it wants to take her, and what it’s trying to awaken inside her.
Even if Cao Xing becomes stronger and can rescue this little girl later.
Would Eliza at that time still be the Eliza he knows?
Cao Xing was uncertain.
So, even though he knew the Old Witch might have set a trap for him, he had no choice but to take the plunge.
Hearing his agreement, the Old Witch’s lips curled into a smile.
“You’ve made the right choice, young man, haha…”
With that, she turned into a wisp of black smoke and vanished from sight…
Everyone stood amidst the mist.
War Angel Liu Muxue radiated a gentle light, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
They looked at their Lord, a similarly reluctant look in their eyes.
If… their power were just a bit stronger, Eliza wouldn’t have been taken, and Cao Xing wouldn’t have to agree to the Old Witch’s terrifying conditions.
Determined in their hearts, they were resolved to become stronger!
But at this moment, Cao Xing was more worried whether the Old Witch could successfully bring Eliza back.
Just then—
Cao Xing suddenly felt a strong tremor from deep within the distant mist!
It was as if some terrifying upheaval had occurred within the mist!
The tremor’s range was vast.
Not only the area where his territory was located, but even the surrounding mountains of the Gale Snow Plain began to shake!
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The earth trembled incessantly, causing long-accumulated snow on some mountains to collapse.
Survivors of the Gale Snow Plain were jolted awake from their slumber by the strong tremor and began to speak in the chat channel.
“Damn! What happened? Is this an earthquake?”
“No way! Just as the Fog Disaster is about to end, now an earthquake? How are we supposed to live?”
“Don’t panic, everyone. It seems like only our Gale Snow Plain is experiencing this tremor, which means it’s a localized earthquake and will pass soon.”
“That makes sense…”
…
At this moment, Cao Xing’s expression remained serious.
He seemed to have realized something.
The Old Witch must’ve gone to snatch someone for him!
Perhaps, even directly engaged in a fight!
And this made Cao Xing realize again that the power of the Old Witch might be beyond imagination.
The entity she mentioned, which was blocked by the system, must be incredibly terrifying.
Yet even so, she still engaged in battle with the entity in the mist.
Even their battle covered the entire Gale Snow Plain.
This level of power was beyond Cao Xing’s understanding.
Meanwhile, the mist continued to emit tremors.
An endless mist rapidly gathered toward a particular area, causing even the mist on Cao Xing’s side to thin considerably.
Even shadows within the mist began charging forward, seemingly in reinforcement.
It was clear that the Old Witch’s power was somewhat terrifying, forcing the entity within the mist to take serious action.
However, the battle did not last long; within minutes, it gradually subsided.
The mist fell into a deathly silence once again, bringing renewed caution to the group.
After waiting for a moment, the surroundings remained silent.
“Is this… is the battle over?”
“What about the Old Witch? And what about the Eliza she promised to bring back?”
Just as he was filled with doubt, a figure slowly emerged from the mist ahead.
Sarah and Assam promptly raised their weapons, ready for battle.
But when the figure fully emerged from the mist and approached the group, they all focused their gaze.
It was Eliza, wrapped in a cotton coat, her face pale.
Upon seeing this, the group was overjoyed!
Even Cao Xing couldn’t contain his delight.
The Old Witch truly did it, successfully bringing Eliza back.
Heli rushed over and grasped her arm.
“Eliza! How are you?”
However, Eliza remained in a vacant state.
In response to Heli’s concern, she only slightly turned her head to glance.
Then, she tilted and collapsed, seemingly losing all consciousness.
Seeing this, Heli stood frozen, a bit at a loss.
Cao Xing also furrowed his brows slightly.
But now wasn’t the time to address this.
During their wait, the surrounding mist grew denser, indicating they were still not out of danger.
Cao Xing quickly said, “Sarah, pick her up, we’re returning to the territory now.”
The Dark Elf Assassin vanished upon command and swiftly hoisted the fainting Eliza.
Cao Xing swiftly pressed the communication device on his ear and said, “Jode, pull us back, just make sure not to pull the vines too hard and snap them.”
