Elise slightly opened her mouth and let out a soft chirping sound.
A brightly colored butterfly slowly flew to Elise's side and landed on her shoulder.
This butterfly was cultivated by Elise using the corpses of cultists, and it is now largely immune to the effects of this fog.
After confirming that the butterfly was developing normally, Elise also sent it to the cultists' rest area.
Based on her near-death experience, she estimated that there was less than half an hour left before the shift change. However, half an hour would be enough time for this butterfly to lay its eggs on most of the cult members.
After marveling once again at the usefulness of the insects' abilities, Elise led the group to rest for a while, waiting for the butterfly's response that the mission was completed before leading them deeper into the territory.
Ordinary cult members are all on the outskirts of the ruins, with only a small number of core members here. As the captain of the patrol team, he has now been mostly sent away by Sally.
The real battle begins now.
Seeing Elise swagger straight in, Nora couldn't help but ask, "Is it really alright to be so presumptuous?"
"The deeper you go, the denser the fog becomes, and powerful plague cultists can sense all the changes in the plague they spread."
Although Elise's invisible mouth could make her unaffected by the fog, the appearance of a void within her perception range was enough to make even a fool realize that something was wrong.
Fortunately, their senses weren't strong enough to cover the entire underground ruins; otherwise, they would have been discovered as soon as they entered.
As Elise stepped deeper into the ruins, she felt the surrounding mist begin to surge, and a sinister voice suddenly rang out: "How dare they let intruders get here! What are the patrolmen outside doing?!"
The sound was very loud, echoing throughout the entire underground ruins.
Movements were already coming from deep within the ruins, but the outer area remained calm. Many cultists who were resting heard the noise and woke up, but their bodies were out of control.
They could even feel something wriggling inside their bodies, gradually taking over them. Their thoughts began to stiffen, and their throats began to emit strange insect-like chirps uncontrollably.
The chirping of insects gradually grew louder, starting from being barely audible.
Then these people walked toward the exit like zombies.
Although the insects have temporarily taken control of most of the peripheral believers' bodies, if they were allowed to go deeper inside, the insects inside their bodies would likely be easily poisoned and killed, and then Elise's previous efforts would be in vain.
The best option, of course, is to let those controlled cult members run away.
This also allows her to have no worries whatsoever.

"Someone's coming. Help me hold them off. I'll see if I can clear this fog."
As Elise finished speaking, an incredibly powerful suction force erupted from her body, and the dense mist began to be continuously absorbed by the invisible mouth, even forming a vortex around Elise.
At this moment, the Gluttony Brand on the back of Elise's hand felt slightly hot; sacrificing this mist unexpectedly brought her a significant boost to her attributes.
This made her suck even more vigorously.
Moreover, absorbing this mist can replenish her own energy consumption. Although it hasn't reached the point of forming a cycle, it has greatly reduced Elise's energy consumption.
If the mark of greed is added at this point, her attraction will increase even further.
The surrounding fog was being pulled in even faster.
Located deep within the ruins (a cult), the followers naturally sensed the changes in their surroundings. They began to manipulate the mist, engaging in a tug-of-war with the intruders.
You have to understand that they went to great lengths to create this fog. If they don't stop it, even if they kill the intruders, the losses will be enormous.
Jiu, who had been keeping a close watch on her surroundings, seemed to sense something and instantly left Iris's protective range, slamming her greatsword into a thick fog.
With a muffled groan, a cultist was sent flying out of the mist. Without hesitation, Nora activated her magic shockwave to accelerate, and before the cultist could recover, she killed him.
Bana was a sixth-order Plague Cultist, and the others were surprised that such a powerful companion was killed so easily.
Although Sally has basically lost her ability to fight, Elise did not let her sit idle. She directly took out a number of failed spatial rings from her spatial ring.
These failed products were all acquired by Elise. After being modified, they can be turned into space bombs that can cause small-scale spatial collapse.
Although the third one is extremely powerful, its trajectory is easily identifiable, so it is not very useful in mid- to high-level battles.
However, it is still very useful here, because Elise's target is not people, but the omnipresent fog.
"At the eleven o'clock position, fifty meters away, inject magic and then teleport there."
Although Elise couldn't find the cultists in the fog, she could sense the direction the fog was being pulled. As long as she threw the bombs in that direction, she would be sure to hit the target.
Without hesitation, Sally activated the space bomb and teleported there, just as Elise had instructed.
At the teleportation point, a spatial rift appeared without warning, and the spatial turbulence sucked everything in its vicinity in, including the mist and an unfortunate cultist.
The spatial rift appeared for only a moment, but the surrounding area was cleared out.
Without the cultists pulling at her, the mist was instantly sucked in by Elise.
"Let's continue."
"it is good."
Having learned from her first experience, Sally continued to send out space bombs, creating spatial rifts that sucked in two more unfortunate souls.
Although it was very efficient, the cost was also high. In just a short time, Elise had already burned through several thousand gold coins.
"Quickly inform His Holiness the Bishop. The other party is very likely a follower of the King of Gluttony. If this continues, the Pale Breath will be completely devoured."
"His Holiness the Bishop is already on his way back. Let's try to hold on for now."
"What about external support?"
There was no response from the outside.
No sooner had the cultist finished speaking than a giant sword came crashing down upon him, but the moment it touched him, he disintegrated into a cloud of white mist.
Just as he was about to reform, an unparalleled suction force came, instantly pulling him in and sucking him in.
Elise had somehow arrived at the central area deep within the ruins, where she could better absorb the surrounding mist.
She had overheard the cultists' conversation and was surprised that the Plague Source's follower was not present, which explained why the invasion was so easy.
It would be great if this place could be cleaned up before he gets back.
However, just as Elise had this thought, she saw a ratman tear through space and appear directly in front of everyone.
The mist that Elise had been constantly devouring froze at this moment, and then all of it gathered in his hand.
Looking at the much smaller cloud of mist in his hand, the ratman frowned slightly, his shrill voice filled with anger: "Damn wretch, spit out my Pale Breath!"
As the ratman finished speaking, his seventh-level aura erupted instantly.
However, Elise remained calm, even a mocking smile playing on her lips: "You should say that to Him."
"Don't think that just because you're a follower of the King of Gluttony, you can control me."
“I’m just a mere fourth-tier cultivator, what merit do I have?” Elise said, taking a step back to shield Vanessa in front of her. “I have another chosen one of the gods here, why don’t you play with her for a while?”
As Elise issued her command, Vanessa instantly entered battle mode. An incredibly powerful gravity pressed down on the ratman, who was caught off guard and instantly turned into white mist, dissipating and then gathering again in the distance.
"Damn it, how did the Glutton's followers end up with the Earth Goddess's followers?" And didn't the Earth Goddess and her followers disappear a long time ago? Where did they come from?
The rat-man knew that even if he asked, the other party would not tell him, so he did not speak and instead began to focus on dealing with the fellow seventh-rank follower.
With the Pale Breath withdrawn, the cultists' figures were exposed to everyone.
Nora coughed a few times, spitting out some blood, and then excitedly charged towards the cultists, wielding two greatswords.
At this time, she was not only infected by the plague, but also had many signs of corrosion on her body. There was even a deep wound that exposed the bone. It was because she had accidentally been stained with the blood of cultists. The moment the blood touched her, she dug out that piece of flesh, but even so, the injury was difficult to heal.
She now understood why Elise had said this place was disgusting.
At this moment, Elise also activated her Joyful Angel form.
The moment a cultist was looked at by Elise, he was horrified to find himself uttering stiff, uncontrollable sounds.
"O Mother who gives birth to all things, the eternal and immortal great mother, I beseech you to bestow your gaze!"
After the cultist uttered the prayer under Elise's control, he let out a piercing scream, which even momentarily drew the attention of the ratmen who were fighting Vanessa.
His belly began to swell at a visible rate.
Elise covered her mouth excitedly.
Volume 1: Chapter 224 Come, Enter My Body
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd and the excited look of Elise, the cultist with the swollen belly stopped struggling, and a twisted arm ripped open his stomach.
Then a twisted humanoid monster emerged from its belly, and upon closer inspection, it seemed to bear some resemblance to the cultist.
The humanoid monster had just been born when it let out a piercing scream, like the cry of an infant.
But the next second, it was pierced by Elise's arrow, and the arrow formed by the power of gluttony instantly devoured the humanoid monster.
Elise just seduced the other party in the guise of the Angel of Pleasure, but she didn't completely seduce him; she merely controlled the cultist to utter the prayer of the Nine-Headed Mother.
Logically speaking, to request the attention of the gods, one needs not only prayers but also focused spiritual communication. As a cultist of plague, it is impossible for him to obtain the attention of other gods simply through prayers.
But there are always some special deities, and the Nine-Headed Mother is one of them.
Whoever speaks His prayer will receive His attention.
The consequences of being watched are quite simple, as clearly demonstrated by that cult member.
That means she's pregnant, but what will be born is hard to say.
Elise once randomly accepted the faith of the Nine-Headed Mother, but she didn't even make use of that ability before being killed by one of the protagonists.
She conceived of this method ever since she discovered her charm power, which allowed her to control parts of a target's body.
It's quite lethal and has a knack for being disgusting.
But Elise was somewhat worried that if she used too much, she might attract the attention of the Nine-Headed Mother.
However, there shouldn't be any problems for the time being.
Thinking of this, Elise set her sights on another cultist, a look of pleasure appearing in her eyes.
The cultist also found himself unable to make a sound, so he didn't hesitate to create a highly poisonous plague, which rendered him mute.
As long as no sound is made, that situation will not occur for the time being.
Seeing how decisive the other party was, Elise curled her lip and continued to look at the other cultists.
With this example in mind, the other cult members didn't hesitate to poison their own voices and simultaneously surrounded Elise.
If they don't kill Elise, this dangerous person, first, they won't be able to talk.
Elise was clearly aware that she would be surrounded, but that was exactly what she wanted. As the cultists focused their attention on her, the mark of pleasure in her eyes glowed pink.
The cultists below the fifth level instantly fell into a daze, and their thoughts began to become sluggish.
Lingmeng Qi Ershan Ling Si 々 Qi? Si
The cultists of the fifth rank and above were also suffering. They seemed to have only just realized how beautiful Elise was, and yet they wanted to harm such a beautiful being.
Each movement became hesitant.
Fortunately, there weren't many of these cultists; otherwise, even in her form as the Angel of Pleasure, Elise probably wouldn't have been able to control so many beings of the fifth rank or higher at once.
As for the sixth tier, Elise didn't even try to control it. It wasn't that she couldn't, but the consumption was too great. It was better to let Nora help her.
The two had collaborated before, and after seeing that Elise had controlled the cultists of the fifth rank and below, Nora knew what Elise was planning to do.
Without hesitation, she drew her god-slaying weapon and began attacking the remaining sixth-tier cultists.
But Nora was only one person, and could only stop a limited number of cultists. In the end, two sixth-tier cultists still managed to get close to Elise.
But just as they approached, Sally's figure suddenly appeared, and a giant axe taller than a person cleaved down instantly, smashing a cultist into a white mist.
Meanwhile, Elise took advantage of the moment to unleash her Gluttony, absorbing a small portion of the white mist.
When the white mist condensed again, the lower half of the sixth-level cultist had already disappeared.
Meanwhile, another cultist had successfully approached Elise, splashing out a large amount of dark green blood that exploded the moment it got close to her.
The cultist's eyes lit up at the sight, but he soon realized that the woman had disappeared from his blast radius.
Not far away, Sally coughed violently a few times, then said in a hoarse voice, "I really can't go on."
After saying that, she squeezed out the last bit of her magic power and teleported herself away from the battlefield.

Staying there will only cause trouble for others, and it would be even more complicated if someone took them hostage, so leaving is the best option.
This is a good opportunity for her to recover her magic power. If anything unexpected happens later, she can use the insects to locate Elise and then teleport directly to pick her up.
He originally thought that Elizabeth brought him here to simply test his current combat power, but who knew that she would lead him directly to the cult's lair.
