Lu Li and Anna landed outside the walls of Flarend City.
The Blood Dandelions around them hadn't diminished; they still enveloped the land, confirming the city's affliction by their invasion.
However, they feared fire, so perhaps Flarend City wasn't as...irreversible as the Arlen Kingdom.
When one looked through the blood-red veil, they could see smoke rising from various parts of the city, indicating that some people had survived and knew the dandelions' weakness.
Lu Li and Anna, who had donned a black robe, walked into the eerily silent city from the gate. The fog-like Blood Dandelions parted from around them. The streets were littered with mummified corpses, desiccated as if baked dry, with a layer of red fuzz growing on their emaciated bodies—no need to get close to know what it was.
It was after dawn when they arrived, the only time residents would leave their homes.
