Chapter 14: Everlasting Crimson fog (2/5)
None of them could hide their curiosity as they waited on the hero's reply—they wondered what sort of sophisticated method the hero was going to employ.
But it was quite the opposite of what they expected.
"We should not step onto the bridge until tomorrow morning. In the meantime, we should come up with ways to make nose masks to shield our noses from inhaling the everlasting crimson fog."
Alister responded, causing silence to prevail over the gathering for a short while.
"At night, the chances of us facing corrupted humans are really high. Corrupted humans are basically corpses—they cannot be affected by the hallucinogenic content of the crimson fog. Since they only attack at night, we should go by morning."
Alister explained.
The eyes of the crew brightened in realization.
"I can't promise these masks will block all the crimson fog, but some protection is better than none."
Silence continued for a few seconds after he was done explaining, as the crew began to realize how effective the simple method the hero had suggested was to their current predicament.
"This is brilliant," King Julian said. "How did we never think of this?"
Back in the Muzez Kingdom, both his advisors and the True Light Wizards had spent long, exhausting hours racking their brains yet still failed to devise any viable solution to prevent the calamities at the bridge. Even with more than enough time on their hands, they could not produce an effective plan.
