Caelan and Audrey did not linger in their current location any longer.
The two of them immediately pressed forward, advancing at a brisk pace.
The [Plague Walls] they had encountered earlier served as a warning: they were about to leave the Forsaken Lands and enter one of the four Deadly Zones, the Blighted Lands.
Unlike the Forsaken Lands, the Blighted Lands felt more expansive, the space opening up into wide corridors and strange clearings.
Every so often, glowing spores clung to the walls, flickering with brilliant colors, as though the very environment had been infused with life.
For a fleeting moment, Caelan experienced a sensation that reminded him of wandering through a familiar bar back in his world, a strange sense of déjà vu washing over him.
But beside him, Audrey spoke with serious concern.
"Master Caelan, you need to be careful. Everything here is likely highly toxic. We should move quickly and avoid disturbing the spores at all costs," she warned.
