Global Fog Survival

Chapter 56: Killing the Lord-level Mutant “Mourning Watcher”

The ground trembled slightly, but that was all. When Colin swore a duel using the “Shield of the Just Knight,” no external force could interfere with this sacred duel! Colin devised this plan based on the characteristics of this mysterious item.

If it failed, he would send another group to “self-destruct” as the monster was too foolish to realize the strategy. However, the “Shield of the Just Knight” should ideally be used only once a day, with at least an hour between uses, and a maximum of three times; otherwise, it could drive the user insane before an hour passed.

Everything in the dueling arena was isolated, and the surroundings were obscured by a mysterious presence. Despite this, Colin and Sanna could still see some changes outside through the invisible barrier. Amidst the crimson heat and black mist, like flowing lava, Colin could feel the terrifying heat even without direct contact. The broken figure of the monster was completely engulfed by the terrifying explosion.

After activating the three oaths, Colin and Sanna watched the outside, observing the tall, shadowy figure in the flames. It seemed to stand in the massive blaze, neither blown away nor fallen, nor did it leave. Its condition was unknown.

[You feel its aura weakening rapidly. You know its recovery has reached its limit.]

[At this moment, although it hasn’t completely died, you realize you have defeated it.]

“It should have something valuable on it; otherwise, it wouldn’t stand still after such an explosion,” Colin speculated. To be safe, he notified the war chariot units to continue firing, planning to bombard it for another two minutes to ensure its demise.

Soon, the cannon fire ceased, and when the sound of “Duel Begins” echoed in their minds, Shana unhesitatingly said, “I surrender.” The next second, the distance closed, and they were back to their original positions.

Ignoring the extra “control,” Colin immediately felt the heat scorching his skin. The explosions had transformed the environment, with the ground melting in some places. The hot air, filled with black smoke, had reduced the oxygen content due to the intense combustion, causing a suffocating feeling.

Sanna stepped forward quickly, a gentle, cool green wind surrounding them, dispelling the acrid smoke and providing relief. She also reapplied various protective spells on Colin. Although the area had little effect on her due to her enhanced physique, she ensured Colin’s safety.

Three meters away stood a huge creature, its flesh completely charred and losing vitality. Most of its deformed flesh was gone, with only its golden ceremonial robe, wrapped head, and black metal mask intact. The massive candelabrum had been blown far away.

When Colin and Sanna appeared, Colin felt the monster seemingly glance at him, possibly the reason it clung to life. With a crash, the skeletal frame, unable to support its massive body, collapsed like an avalanche.

The lord-level mutant “Mourning Watcher” was finally dead. Its enormous head, nearly as tall as Colin, rolled to a stop a meter away, facing sideways.

Instantly, a notification appeared: [Congratulations to survivor “Colin” for becoming the world’s first to kill a lord-level mutant!]

[Rewards will be distributed: 9999 hard black bread, 1000 Fog Points, 3 Recovery Cards, 1 Treasure Map Fragment, a Level 2 Inventory Expansion Card, and a day’s worth of Life Blessing!]

[Rewards have been issued.]

[May all lords strive together.]

Immediately, Colin heard exclamations from nearby lords outside the forest. Simultaneously, deafening cheers erupted from Colin’s territory, including the saltpeter mines and other areas.

Victory! The world’s first kill! Everyone involved felt the blessing of “Life Blessing,” their bodies nearly doubling in strength. Despite not understanding how the system recognized them as a team, the benefits were evident, though only lasting a day. All the other rewards belonged solely to Colin.

The global chat channel went wild: “Oh my God, aren’t lord-level mutants invincible? Our top player gathered over a hundred people to fight one in a canyon and nearly got wiped out…”

“Killing a lord mutant? Must be cheating, right? Wait, it’s Colin? No surprise there!”

“I knew it! Explosives! It had to be explosives! Sulfur is in high demand! Colin must be behind it!”

“Indeed, only massive amounts of explosives could kill a lord-level mutant! Plus Colin’s war chariots made the difference; otherwise, lord-level mutants are monsters, even with mysterious items.”

“What? Explosives? Beware the multi-turret cultist. More is better! Big is beautiful! Infinite cannons, infinite glory! Colin, where are you? I’ll cross mountains to join you!”

“I just heard explosions! I’m in the same zone as Colin!”

“Then go join him! Stop bragging here! Colin’s a tough guy and trustworthy! You’ll be well-fed and safe! I’m so jealous!”

“By the way, I got a triggered mission to explore some ruins. Is it doable?”

“Don’t! Haven’t you watched ‘Daily Survival Tips’? Triggered missions usually have a lord-level mutants nearby. Going there is suicide!”

“Are lord-level mutants that tough? I just killed an elite mutant with an axe, lost a few minions, but it wasn’t that hard. Lords sound tough, but…”

“Not that hard? Haha, wait till you face one. You’ll understand.”

“Idiot, they’re trolling. By the way, are these rewards for the first kill? Mostly common resources, nothing really enhancing.”

“Get used to it, the system’s stingy. Only triggered missions have good stuff. I suspect the system withholds rewards, skimming off the top…”

“You think so too? My foul tainted blood rewards seemed short, given the monster’s size.”

“Agreed.”

“Stop the nonsense! Black bread isn’t good? An elite mutant nearly killed me, but a piece of black bread saved me. I’m making black bread armor!”
