Hell Ape, Part II

Immediately upon entering the forest, Yong Hai took his group and began traveling toward the stronghold. He had decided to lie in wait and ambush the people who arrived.

Unfortunately, something strange had happened to him and his group while they were traveling. A strange fog had rolled in. So thick was this fog that none of them could see more than a few chih in any direction. Even his hand was barely visible as he waved it in front of his face.

“W-what’s going on?! Where did this fog come from?!”

“I can’t see!”

“Wh-where are you guys?!”

The people who journeyed with him panicked. Their startled screams reverberated throughout the forest. Yong Hai wanted to shout at all of them to shut up, but he never got the chance before a gigantic vine wrapped around his waist and hauled him into the air.
