Capítulo 120: Miasma and Poison!

[Bonfire Point - Corruption Abyss Outpost]

Ryan set his notebook aside with a heavy sigh. The notes left by Loic, the deputy leader of the Seventh Scouting Hunting Group, had unraveled some mysteries of the enigmatic island but also posed new riddles.

Firstly, the notes spoke of the Red Sun's influence on humans, it promised benefits to those who could withstand its harsh impact, albeit at a cost. This notion of 'Red Sun Evolution' process mentioned by Silver, yet the nature of the "little price" remained a disturbing unknown.

Secondly, Ryan's instincts about the path ahead were confirmed. The increasing foul stench was a harbinger of substantial peril. Beyond the mere mention of "Ancient Dragon Traces," the deputy's warnings about the "miasma poison" had set Ryan's nerves on edge. The words 'miasma' and 'poison' alone were enough to chill the spine, and their combination was nothing short of ominous.
