The red-purple mist soon enveloped the entire fortress, and it was still expanding at terrifying speed.
10 miles… 20 miles… and as it approached the 30 miles, Albert City's west wall was slowly growing closer to it.
It was still 4: a.m., and it was quite dark. The red-purple mist appeared like a black cloud of dust that was quickly making its way to Albert City.
"What the…" A patrolling guard on the city wall finally noticed it, and he was bewildered as he clearly couldn't tell if it was really a dust storm or something else. Nevertheless, he still quickly headed toward the post to report this strangeness.
However, he didn't even reach the guard post on the city wall when he sensed something and turned around and saw the darkness, which seemed over a mile away was now only a few hundred away. From this distance, he finally noticed the red-purple mist, and his eyes winded.
