The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior

The anomalous spatial rift would randomly, and at irregular intervals, unleash monsters that posed a threat to nearby humans.

There was also an extremely rare chance that a Boss-level monster would materialize.

The appearance of a Boss often triggered an alternate space upheaval, leading to a massive monster tide that swept through everything, leaving devastation in its wake!

Therefore, any area with an anomalous spatial rift is not suitable for habitation.

Only by thoroughly conquering the existing alternate space and closing the rift it produces can the area return to a habitable state.

"This is the place."

Lin Ye gazed at the anomalous spatial rift emitting a sinister red glow before him, swiftly recalling all the information he could gather before setting out.

Alternate Space No. 1026112, 'Mist Marsh.'

This alternate space was a swamp veiled in fog year-round, significantly impairing the movement and vision of anyone who entered, thus preventing them from fully utilizing their combat capabilities.

Within this mire, there were monsters adept in stealth like the Mire Wanderer, alongside the thick-skinned, high-resistance Mire Monster, and swift, high-attack Mist Slayers, among others...

It could be said that this single alternate space contains an assortment of sinister creatures, each despised by everyone who encounters them, terrifying even to dogs.

Combined with an environment that perfectly complements their attributes, this alternate space reigns supreme in its repulsiveness.

So much so that over the years, no one has been able to conquer it.

Yet, at this moment, Lin Ye stepped inside without a trace of hesitation.

Crossing the rift, Lin Ye found himself in a dark, damp marshland; the air around him was ripe with a foul stench.

This was the distinctive stench of decay unique to swamps, possessing mild toxicity, but those who could enter here were at least Level 25 Professionals, strong enough to disregard such toxic gas that only harmed ordinary people.

Lin Ye observed the dense fog around him; he could hardly see clearly beyond a radius of three meters, and beyond that, everything was shrouded in obscurity.

At a distance of five to six meters, he was completely submerged in a world of fog, enveloped in the unknown.

Many monsters have an alert range that exceeds even ten meters.

In such an environment, you wouldn't even know the precise location of the monster attacking you, leaving you extremely passive.

By the time you fully comprehend the dread of this fog, when you attempt to exit, you'll find you can no longer locate the rift through which you entered.

Ultimately, you can only become utterly lost in this marsh and perish here, decaying within it.

"This place is indeed extraordinarily nauseating..."

Even Lin Ye, with all his experience, acknowledged that the repulsiveness of this anomalous spatial rift ranked remarkably high.

The materials he reviewed invariably ended with advice urging anyone who read them not to tread lightly into this marsh.

Because this place is simply impossible to conquer!

The authors of those documents were extraordinarily fortunate to have escaped from this mire.

Those adventurers who became trapped in the fog, unable to find the exit rift, had long become skeletal remains within the swamp.

Lin Ye activated True Sight, and everything before him gradually became clearer.

Although the effect wasn't as superb as in normal conditions, it was adequate.

At the very least, Lin Ye could see clearly within a twenty to thirty-meter radius around him.

[Quest Initialized!]

[Quest Objective: Banish the fog, let sunlight return to this area]

At this moment, the quest objective finally appeared before Lin Ye's eyes.

This type of quest was deemed one of the most troublesome within secret realms and alternate spaces because sometimes you didn't even know how to fulfill it.

It wasn't as straightforward as those tasks to eliminate a certain number of monsters.

Another aspect that Lin Ye found particularly inconvenient,

This environment was incredibly unfriendly to his mechanical animals.

Crows flying into the mist ended up virtually blind.

And the little mice found it impossible to move through the marsh, making them entirely ineffective.

This time, Lin Ye refrained from deploying his little animals to assist his actions.

Lin Ye stepped forward; however, his steps did not sink into the marsh but floated above it instead.

Utilizing the skill 'Space Manipulation,' he could walk as if on solid ground anywhere.

With the 'True Sight' talent, the restrictions of the Mist Marsh alternate space on Lin Ye were far less severe than suggested in various reports.

"Roar!"

As Lin Ye advanced a short distance, a monster emerged from the swamp, lunging fiercely at him.

Lin Ye, raising his magic staff, summoned Holy Light to smite down, instantly slaying the Mire Lurker with the Punishment Technique.

Without giving it another glance, Lin Ye continued forward.

Though the Air Burst Technique's destructive power far outstripped the Punishment Technique, Lin Ye was most adept with the latter.

He had reached a point where casting Holy Light Spells came as naturally as breathing.

His proficiency in space spells, however, clearly lagged behind.

...

"Where on earth did Lin Ye venture off to in pursuit of a secret realm? It's nearly been twenty days now! Why hasn't he surfaced yet?"

At the side of the public toilet on Shan City's Professional Plaza, Liang Liankang, who's been stationed there for twenty days, was starting to crumble under the strain.

Although there were shifts, guarding a public toilet for twenty continuous days was... almost unthinkable!

"Stop complaining; for secret realms above Level 20, it's not uncommon for them to take a fortnight or more,"

Added Wu Ziqi, standing somewhat irritably nearby.

Liang Liankang merely let out a sigh.

He was utterly at his wit's end.

...

Several days passed in succession, and within this marshland, Lin Ye discovered a number of valuable items he hadn't found even amidst the ruins of old Shan City.

"I should've anticipated the higher quality of the relics here!"

Lin Ye picked up yet another Level 30 Orange Relic.

Since venturing into this secret realm, this marked the third high-quality relic he'd acquired!

Under normal circumstances, these three relics would already suffice to elevate a Level 25 Professional to Level 30.

Yet considering Lin Ye had dual professions, the three relics were probably only enough to boost his Healer level to Level 28.

Lin Ye picked up a skull adjacent to the relic and placed it into his spatial bag.

Orange relics could only be condensed from the posthumous remains of S-Class Talent professionals.

Clearly, those daring to adventure into this alternate space were young professionals, confident in their own genius.

It's unfortunate they underestimated the marsh's danger, rendering them lost and forever trapped within.

But Lin Ye was determined to put an end to this mire.
