Wizard System: Dissecting a Mutated Monster From the Start - Chapter 12
It was a vast plain that stretched as far as the eye could see. There was nothing special about it, but when Edward and the others arrived at the exact location given by the system, a pale white mist was swirling around.
With the help of the moonlight from the sky, the knights and their maids, Alicia, could clearly see the whirlpool-shaped fog in front of them.
“Is this what Young Master Edward is looking for?” Alicia looked at the fog floating in the air and asked in confusion.
Even the knights were confused.
They came to the dangerous Golin Mountain Range just for this thing?
The Golin Mountain Range was ridiculously large to begin with, and it was located deep within the mountain range that no one had explored for many years. The legends regarding the Land of Fog were even recorded down by adventurers who were old or had turned into skeletons.

In recent years, no one would come to such a desolate and dangerous place.
“System, check the vortex in front of us.” Without answering the maid’s question, Edward looked at the entrance in front of him and asked the system.
[System prompt: According to the wave diagram, the mysterious power of this place has reached its peak. According to the deduction of the system, this place is the gate to the Land of Fog. Do you want to analyze the method to open it?]
“Analyze the activation method!” Edward’s eyes flickered. If nothing went wrong, this was his true destination.
[System prompt: Analyzing the mysterious power in the host’s body… analysis completed. Using the mysterious power in the host’s body as the collision force, the mysterious power in the gate will exceed the peak. There is a high chance of opening the Land of Fog!]
After hearing that, Edward summoned the mysterious power that he had never used before and covered his palm.
……
The pale blue fluorescent light wrapped around his hand and gently touched the swirling mist before him.
The moment they made contact, Edward clearly felt the mysterious power in his hand disappear.
The vortex in front of him began to spin and expand, as though the mysterious power within had reached the designated point.
Edward led his knights and maids into the whirlpool. The fog in front of them gradually increased, and their bodies moved through it.
This should be the Land of Fog!
Edward thought to himself as he looked at the mist floating around him, visibility less than five meters.
There seemed to be a plowed path beneath their feet, and Edward did not choose to advance recklessly.
According to the legends of this Land of Fog, it had appeared at least 500 years ago.
During this period, there was definitely no lack of elites who entered, but not many came out in the end.
Travelers or knights would be confused by the fog in front of them and the path under their feet. They would not be able to see the entirety of this Land of Fog. This was also the main reason why they were lost here.
However, Edward was no ordinary person.
In the depths of his soul was a system that could simulate the terrain.
“Scan the entire Land of Fog and form a three-dimensional model.”
[System prompt: Scanning the Land of Fog… Estimated time: 10 minutes, please hold on!]
Ten minutes?
It looked like this Land of Fog was ridiculously large!
Fortunately, he had the help of the system.
Edward thought to himself as he looked at the fog floating around him.
[System prompt: Scan complete. Creating a three-dimensional model. Please wait a moment.]
A blue virtual terrain that only Edward could see appeared in the air. In this ridiculously large Land of Fog, a red spot caught his attention.
That was the only building in the Land of Fog.
That was his destination, the mysterious ruins!
And… as he looked at the pathways all over the three-dimensional model, Edward was glad he was not following the path he was walking on originally.
“This place is extremely dangerous. If you make the slightest mistake, you will be lost. What awaits you is death!”
“Next, tie yourselves together with ropes. Don’t trust your vision. I’ll lead the way.”
After the knights tied themselves to a rope, Edward took the maid’s hand and started following the route given by the system.
The journey from the entrance to the distant ruins was extremely long.
Along the way, Edward saw countless lost skeletons lying on the ground in despair. There was no food or salvation, only the fear of death.
Even the path beneath his feet was getting more and more deviated. At first, Edward was still in the habitual state of mind, but when he saw that he was off course, he quickly shut off his sense of sight.
All his energy was focused on the route given by the system.
The little maid beside him was already trembling in fear.
The knights behind him also appeared somewhat dazed.
The fog here not only obstructed one’s vision but also confused one’s thoughts.
After walking for nearly three hours, Edward finally reached the center of the Land of Fog.
That was the location of the ruins.
It was a tall staircase made of countless stones. The fog obscured everything from view.
The stones were all square-shaped, and the space between the bricks was very tight. The gaps were very narrow.
As far as Edward knew, with the level of craftsmanship in this world, it was impossible to create such a small margin of error.
At the moment, his guesses were being verified step by step.
This was the ancient mysterious ruins!
“Young Master Edward, is this what you are looking for?” Finally, a knight asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
Such a grand project had truly shocked them.
“Let’s go. If nothing goes wrong, the thing we’re looking for is up there.” Edward sounded strangely calm.
At this moment, the mysterious energy wave diagram given by the system in his mind was already flashing red.
The building was not tall, and Edward reached the entrance without much effort.
In front of them was a three-meter-long gate. On both sides of the gate was a three-meter-tall guardian statue.
On the statue was a giant that looked like a human. It had a dull appearance and a tall and sturdy body.
Its huge body gave people a sense of pressure.
A few knights took the initiative to check if there were any traps.
However, at this moment, Edward’s system gave an intense alarm.
[System prompt: Detected that the mysterious power within the two statues is rising rapidly. Please note, please note!]
[System prompt: Analyzing in progress. This time, the mysterious power’s reaction level is 2!]
