Chapter 189: Mystery Behind Laughing Alligator Forest

"Ah... No, not that place." The lioness cried out as she had bitter memories about that laughing alligator forest.

"Why not, sister Helia?" Nyla asked in puzzlement as she could see Lia was amused seeing the blonde-haired beauty's sour reaction.

"Because This forest will make you laugh after you kill an alligator beast. It releases a laughing gas that makes us laugh even if we don't want.

Lia was able to be calm at that place as she has a higher level of spiritual power than me due to her innate skill [Eyes of destiny] which helps her control her mind better but That's not the same case for me."

Helia explained in an annoyed tone as she remembered her experience at the Laughing Alligator Forest.

As Helia finished telling, Lia decided to tell them more about that place.

"We went there when she had broken through to the black stage as she wanted to accompany me to the places with Silver stage beasts. However, Helia has yet to reach the silver stage as she hunts alone now and father doesn't get much time to accompany me on the adventure to the corrupted land.

So he doesn't allow me to go there either due to the dangers that linger in the advanced regions. Even in the Shamor Empire, most people cultivate to reach a higher rank after the black stage as the dangers increase in the corrupted land." Lia said in a gentle tone and explained.

"Oh, I was wondering why Sis Lia doesn't go on adventures like us. So that's the case." The Magenta-haired beauty spoke, her voice flickered with a hint of awe.

"What kind of place is this Laughing Alligator Forest and how does that work?" Rio asked as this topic piqued his interest, his brows rising high.

"It's an abnormal forest in the corrupted land with intoxicated Alligator beasts. They only came out of the pool when its night as the water in the river starts to fill with the alcoholic effects due to the lack of sunlight.

But even if those alligator beasts escape the river at night, there is still water remaining in their body that they consumed earlier in the day that wasn't digested so the content left inside them makes these alligator beasts intoxicated and also off guard against the enemies." Lia described as she had studied these beasts when she went there last time with Helia.

"Big sis, You said the river reacts when in the lack of Sunlight but when water is in the alligator's body it won't receive any sunlight so why is that?" Nyla's voice was filled with puzzlement as she asked with curiosity.

"It's something related to the ancient law of Yin and Yang. In the day we get Yang from Sun and at night we get Yin from the moonlight or the darkness. That is what affects the water in the river and the alligator's body.

So this is also why that place would be best to farm for black-stage cores as you don't have to worry about getting attacked by the beast when they are in intoxicated stats." Lia said, her voice relaxed as she talked about how that place worked.

"Then why not everyone goes there to farm if it's that easy?" Rio asked, thinking there should be some dark side to this place that she didn't talk about otherwise Helia may have surely brought Nyla to that place for faster advancement.

"You're very sharp, Rio. Even Helia didn't ask me this question to me although she disliked this place. The reason is simple, we can not stay in the laughing Allegator forest for a very long period of time.

This can increase the yin in our body and will imbalance due to inhaling the night air at that place which consists of the mist produced from the same river.

So it's better to stay at this laughing alligator forest for only seventy-two hours at most and in that time you won't be able to kill many black-stage beasts since the laughing alligators only come out at midnight when the river's yin energy is at its peak." Lia explained in a serious tone.

"That makes sense," Rio mumbled.

Hearing about the details, Nyla and Rio finally understood why this place could be bad for them.

"Do we really have to go to that laughing Alligator forest?" Helia asked the sourness reflected in her tone, expressing her unwillingness to go there.

"It won't be an issue for Rio to farm at other places in corrupted land as I know about his strength better than anyone else but Nyla would benefit the most if she also joins in.

This way they can both benefit from going to that laughing alligator forest as it is a treasure trove for black stage warriors and only a few know about this place and fear the mysterious unbalancing Yin phenomenon.

Since Rio needs black stage cors and Nyla requires to ascend to the next stage then that would be the best place for them to hunt. If you still don't want to go then I don't mind bringing them there myself." Lia said in a calm voice as she was thinking to replace Helia on their adventure.

"Ah... you don't leave me a choice. I don't want you to be bothered by this problem yet you still want to go. I will just bring them there even if I have to go through that crazy laughing trauma." Helia spoke, her voice flowed with bitterness but she agreed to go there as it was the best place for Nyla.

"It's not a bad thing to laugh once in a while," Rio commented, turning left to say it to the Blonde-haired beauty.
