Da Fei had no choice but to say, "Thank you, elder sir, for taking us in. I'll go out immediately to meet up with the troops!"

Tai Da shook his head. "Not possible. It's impossible to do it in a day. We can only have the Tree Elf Army stand guard in place to protect our lumber. I don't know how powerful the Mercury Fog is, but Tree Spirits are not plants; they're essentially Spiritual Creatures and should be able to resist the corrosion of Mercury Fog."
