Chapter 829: Pillar of Greed [1]

"I don't see anything. The mist is far too thick." 

Ryan muttered as he extended his hand, where a small device gently floated back into the palm of his hand. The device was compact, roughly the size of a rubric's cube, and it featured complex circuitry all around its body.

"I've tried using the heat sensor in the drone, but that also doesn't seem to work. The fog seems to be hiding everything that is inside." 

"What about sounds?" 

An older voice echoed. It belonged to Leopold, who was standing beside him with a pack of gum in his hands.

"Hav..mhm.. the drones look for any sounds that are coming from beneath…munch… that would probably do the trick." 

"I've tried." 

Ryan shook his head. 

"It blocks everything. From sunlight to all electromagnetic waves and sounds. We're on our own." 

"Well… that sucks."
