Extra: Wherever the Dark Continent Looks (II)

Extra: Dark Continent·Wherever the Eyes Go (II)

The diary left by the past ferry crew gave Lin Nie and his three companions some clues about "that gaze".

This made them directly associate it with the dark forest they had walked through before and the clean water source.

But compared to this clue that might bring some value, what is more concerning is the timing of the appearance of the "diary".

It was too coincidental...

So much so that Lin Nie, who likes to fantasize the most in the team, couldn't help but be suspicious.

Or maybe it was because he was always surrounded by "unknown eyes" during this period, so he subconsciously thought that this diary might be deliberately arranged by "some existence".

He had to be alert to this possibility.

At least Lin Nie didn't dare to be careless.

Holding the diary in his hand, Lin Nie looked at Jager, who was about the same height as him, and then looked up at Netero, who was strong and tall, waiting for the views and opinions of the two teammates.

However, after a few seconds, neither Jager nor Netero spoke, and there was a sense of déjà vu of staring at each other.

"..."

After a short silence, Lin Nie's thin eyebrows twitched and asked, "You two... don't you have anything to say?"

"..."

The place suddenly became quiet again.

Netero and Jaeger showed puzzled expressions one after another.

"Should I say something?"

This is Jaeger's words.

"Ah?"

This is Netero's reaction.

The corners of Lin Nie's mouth twitched twice without a trace, and then he remained silent.

"Ah..."

She sighed helplessly and gave up the idea of ​​getting "opinions" from Jaeger and Netero.

That's right...

These two guys.

One was born in the Zoldyck family and has always solved all problems with combat capabilities.

The other is a war faction with a head full of fighting desires and muscles. He is also the type of person who can stop the enemy with generals and cover the water with earth.

For them, no matter what attacks the darkness ahead, they just need to use their fists to repel it.

If you can't fight back, then be fully aware and embrace death...

Lin Nie, who understood this, quietly put away his diary, and then walked towards the predetermined route without saying a word.

Netero and Jaeger first glanced at Lin Nie's back, and then looked at each other.

What's wrong?

Didn't they say that they would fight whatever came?

The two saw the same question in each other's eyes.

The team continued to move forward.

That "gaze" that came from nowhere has been lingering.

As time goes by, its presence is gradually increasing.

Sometimes, you can keenly feel that "that gaze" is staring at you nearby.

Even when you look towards the source of the gaze, although you can still clearly feel the existence of the gaze, there is always nothing in your sight.

Although you haven't felt any sense of crisis for the time being, it gives Lin Nie a sense of oppression of "countdown".

Among the entire team, only Netero was completely calm, thinking that he could use "Hundred-style Guanyin" to solve the problem when "that gaze" revealed its true face.

The team moved forward slowly.

Netero was in front, Jaeger was behind, and Lin Nie was in the middle.

This was the formation they had been taking during the exploration.

Not long after.

The team came to a relatively sparse forest.

Compared with the various gigantic environments of the Dark Continent, the normal forest in front of them might be more like a patch of grass on the Dark Continent.

Without much hesitation, the team walked into the forest according to the established route.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the orange-red afterglow fell in the forest.

Netero walked in front with a steady look in his eyes.

As a reinforcement system that has reached the peak, Netero has a momentum to break all the dangers ahead.

It is this momentum that is radiated invisibly that gives Lin Nie and Jaeger enough confidence.

They can always believe in Netero standing in front.

Rustle——

The wind blows the branches and leaves, and the sound does not stop.

When the last ray of afterglow disappeared, the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees suddenly glowed with green light.

Before Netero and his companions could observe this change carefully, a trace of murderous intent suddenly flashed.

The murderous intent,

came from the back of the team.

Netero and Lin Nie seemed to have no reaction at all, and Jage, who was at the back of the team, also looked forward, focusing his attention on the plants glowing green.

The murderous intent from the back attacked Jage's back with a sharp force.

At this moment.

Although Jage's attention was on those glowing plants, his limbs seemed to react automatically, and his naturally hanging arms suddenly whipped at the black shadow attacking from behind like a whip.

Bang!

A dull sound suddenly appeared in the green light.

The black shadow that originally attacked Jage's back was blocked by the whip-like arm and flew back, and then landed steadily on the ground in the forest, whispering a series of obscure syllables.

At this time, Netero and Lin Nie turned around and looked at the place where the sound came from.

What came into view was a semi-humanoid monster more than two meters tall.

There was a pair of curved black horns on the monster's head, and a pair of golden vertical pupils flashed with human interest. His body was covered with thick black hair, but even so, it could not cover the muscles that bulged like rocks.

But the upper body was so strong, but the lower limbs were slender and curved.

"Sub-humanoid monster...?"

Seeing the true face of the attacker, Nitro raised his eyebrows slightly, subconsciously thinking of the gatekeeper.

Lin Nie immediately looked at Jaeger's arm and asked, "Are you injured?"

"Small injury."

Jaeger looked normal, staring at the sub-humanoid monster that suddenly attacked him with a dead look in his eyes.

Thanks to the brutal training he experienced since childhood, after being exposed to telekinesis, he naturally developed the ability to respond to any attack unconsciously.

Just now, he relied on this ability to fend off the attack from the demi-humanoid monster in time.

But even if he didn't have this ability, he could still react to the fleeting murderous intention.

Nitro and Lin Nie can also do this.

What's a pity is that his manifest energy is not as good as his opponent's, so the arm used to fight back is already red and swollen.

"Humans are so rare, hey..."

The black-horned monster looked at the three Nitros with interest, and then fixed its gaze on Jaeger.

"Among the three of you, you are the strongest, right?"

Based on the results of the attack just now, the Black-Horned Monster believed that Jaeger, the only one who responded, was the strongest among the three.

It's just that what he said sounded to the ears of the three Nitros as a series of obscure syllables.

Noticing the reactions of the three Nitros, the Black-Horned Demonic Beast realized the language barrier.

"We need to solve the language problem first..."

The black-horned monster grinned and suddenly tore off a piece of flesh with thick hair from its chest.

This act of self-mutilation without warning caused the three of Nitro to be surprised and confused.

The black-horned monster ignored Nitro's and the others' reactions and said to himself: "What I give you will be rewarded."

As soon as he finished speaking,

The palm holding the hair and flesh emitted a burst of red light, and then the hair and flesh in the red light quietly annihilated into ashes.

The sacrifice is completed!

"you--"

Letting the hair, flesh and blood in his hands turn to ashes, the black-horned monster looked at the three Nitros again and asked, "Is he a 'stowaway'?"

The words that came out were no longer obscure syllables, but a lingua franca with a straight tone.

He used the ability of sacrifice to solve the language problem by using part of his own flesh and blood as a sacrifice.

"Um?"

Nitro, Lin Nie, and Jaeger, who were in a fighting state, were all slightly startled when they heard the common language of the black-horned monster.

Without the intention to find out the reason, and without answering the other party's intention, Nitro subconsciously asked: "Then you are a 'peeper', right?"

The reason why I ask this question——

It was because Nitro noticed that after the black-haired monster appeared, the haunting "gaze" suddenly disappeared.

"???"

However, the Black-Horned Monster did not understand the meaning of Nitro's rhetorical question at all.

"What voyeur? My name is Spudimen!"

Faced with Nitro's rhetorical question, the black-horned monster's eyes slightly widened and he proudly announced his name.

Spuddy Gate -

It was the gatekeeper who summoned the guide for Moyu and his party many years later.

It's just that compared to the indifferent temperament that kept people away from thousands of miles away many years later, the current Spudimen has a vibrant vitality, and...

The positivity that comes with being exposed to novelty.

despite this--

In Spudimen's eyes, the three human beings Nitro, Lin Nie, and Jaeger are still food and prey that can sharpen his strength.

That's right,

He wanted to kill the three Nitros in a hunting way and then eat them.

Jaeger, who was most sensitive to murderous intent, understood Spudimen's intentions at this moment.

So he moved a small step forward.

Jaeger's actions were noticed by Spudimen, and he couldn't help but grin.

The next moment.

Spudimen's figure seemed to have crossed space and appeared out of thin air beside Jaeger.

However, before Spudimen could take action, Jaeger's eyes were lifeless, and his blade-like palm had already stabbed Spudimen's vital point in advance.

Such a well-timed counterattack was like predicting Spudimen's attack intention.

Spudimen never expected Jaeger to be able to respond at such a speed, but his reaction was also terrifying. He swept back at the last moment to avoid Jaeger's sword.

"interesting."

Stabilizing his body, Spudimen stared at Jaeger with lustrous eyes and said excitedly: "You are indeed the strongest one."

The basis for this judgment is still reaction speed.

During the confrontation just now, he still noticed that Nitro and Lin Nie had no reaction at all.

However--

What Spudimen didn't know was that Nitro and Lin Nie also saw Jaeger move forward a small step.

In the eyes of Nitro and Lin Nie, Jaeger's move was equivalent to saying: I'll do it.

Therefore, Nitro and Lin Nie did not intervene.

Listening to Spudimen's excited assertion, a question mark suddenly appeared on Jaeger's head.

"The strongest one?"

"whispering sound……"

"How can I be the strongest one?"

"The real strongest one is the one behind me."

"The Isaac Nitro I admire and admire!"

"If you don't even have this bit of vision, then I can probably win."

Jaeger slowly made an offensive gesture and muttered to himself.

I’ll do some extras from time to time. After writing about the Nitro Trio, I’ll write another extra about Moyu. Well, there’s no charge.

I want to create a group, but the one-click group-joining function is not working well, so I am too lazy to do it.
