Become Supreme Will from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 253 The City in the House
A few months later, the four set off again.

This time they were traveling much faster than before, and the strength of Men Qi and the three of them had improved.

Especially after the three of them were taught the art of breathing and some national martial arts and combat techniques. Of course, this growth alone cannot play a decisive role in the Dark Continent.More importantly, there has been a transformation in mental ability, mentality and adaptability, as well as personal will.

Every area in the oasis seems to have a unique food chain and ecology, which is completely different from the desert. Therefore, the four of them must be careful everywhere they go.During this period, Hao would even use his soul to control some living beings as mounts, carrying a few people on the road.

Before, his ability did not reach this level, because the individual soul can seize human beings, but there is no way to control the creatures here, because most of the creatures have very huge life energy and have huge bodies. The soul wants to control a creature. It is extremely difficult to create such a large puppet.

The requirement for the ability to seize the body is that the soul and the body must be in harmony and form a certain balance before it can be controlled.

To put it bluntly...you can't pull a small cart with a big cart.

And if a large number of souls are put into one body, rejection will occur... and it will be even more uncontrollable.

But now, although there are no obvious changes on the system panel, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds. He can combine the majestic and numerous ghosts together to form a single consciousness that occupies the living body.

Therefore, they would sometimes ride on some beasts like horned dragons, woolly elephants or conch wildebeests to run wildly on the earth, and sometimes they would sit cross-legged on the backs of a group of birds and shuttle through the sky.

Even here, when they completely walked out of the oasis, it took a whole year.

In and out, more than three years have passed since they arrived in the Dark Continent...and they are still at the edge of the continent.

This trip also further proves that when Nitro and others explored the Dark Continent, they were wandering around the edge.

It feels like it would be difficult to reach the hinterland of the Dark Continent without spending more than ten years, or even decades.

Human life cannot bear this kind of consumption.

As time went by, several people became more and more aware of the horrors of the Dark Continent.

What's scary is not only the living organisms, but also the environment and climate...

For example, they once suffered a heavy rain. The rain came very quickly, without any warning, let alone clouds and fog. It just fell out of thin air.Rainwater is extremely corrosive. Each drop is as big as a fist. When it falls on the surface, it will erode a blackened hole like a strongly acidic solution.

Anthony almost died at that time... Fortunately, Hao used the condensed ghost mist to form a big umbrella, which covered several people's heads in time.

After the rainwater fell to the ground, it did not spread out, but still formed into clumps of transparent material... Later, they discovered that this 'rainwater' was actually a kind of microorganism and a kind of life form.They will appear in groups in a certain area and wander high in the sky. Once a large number of creatures are found, they will land, creating the illusion of 'raining'.

The hazy ghost is his telekinesis. With his current telekinesis strength, he can offset this energy damage and loss.

This is a unique 'climate phenomenon' in the Dark Continent.

They also encountered a kind of crystal clear flower, with branches and leaves spread out like a futon, and the leaves could reflect light like a mirror.But you must not look directly at it, because the 'mirror leaves' of the flowers will reflect a certain desire in people's hearts.

Gaibovich saw the resurrected Fant in the 'mirror' and wanted to get closer... Fortunately, Men Qi noticed the strangeness and pulled him back in time. Otherwise, if he got closer, he would be hidden under the ground by the mirror flower. The spikes become paralyzed and thus become food.

They had encountered such encounters too many times during this year, too many to count.

Various strange and dangerous situations also gave them a stronger insight into unknown dangers.

……

"Finally I saw the source of water..."

The next day, several bat-like butterflies fell from the sky.

After landing, Hao and others jumped off the back of the host creature.

Men Qi looked at the calm but wide river in front of him and smiled.

The river is quiet, sparkling and blue.

There is a river on the Dark Continent, but the land on the other side is at the end of the horizon.

"I just looked down from a high altitude. On the other side of the river is the 'thatched cottage' you mentioned, Captain."

Anthony echoed.

It's those buildings that look like human houses.

Men Qi walked to the river. Without saying a word, he waved his hand and the sharp sword suddenly appeared, splitting the river into two and raising large water droplets at the same time.

The woman's eyes quickly glanced at the depths of the river split by the sword, and then looked at the water droplets falling against the sunlight. Then, she watched a bright red floating on the river dozens of meters away, and said lightly: "No problem. "

As soon as he finished speaking, the corpse of a water creature floated out from the water, looking very strange.

But for a few people, it is already normal.

What kind of "strange" things have they not seen in the past few years?

If there are living things inhabiting it, the safety of the water quality can basically be ensured. If there are no living things in the water, then you really need to be careful!
Hearing the sound, Hao controlled several birds to come forward to drink water. After waiting for a while, he confirmed that there was no abnormality, and then nodded.

Although there are some water sources in the oasis, due to the weird ecological environment, a few people dare not drink it. In that case, even drinking the blood of monsters is much safer than those water sources.

Because some water quality may belong to 'microorganisms' and is not real 'water'.

The one in front of us is undoubtedly the real source of water... This kind of reserve and area cannot be achieved by weird things or microorganisms.

Of course, the special region and environment must mean that there is a food chain and ecological chain belonging to it in this river.

The four of them freshened up briefly.

refreshed.

When they see the water now... they all have a strange feeling.

As for the clothes they are wearing now, they are also a kind of 'hope', or they can be called 'treasures'.

It is a kind of monster in the oasis, with a body as soft as a silkworm, but with the head of a baby. They call it the swaddling insect, and it is woven from the silk it spits out.

This kind of silk is extremely hard and difficult to break or destroy. The most interesting thing is that the silk will become strong or soft according to the individual's range of movement and strength.

Wearing it, it feels as light as nothing.

The weaving process is not artificial. Instead, after the silk comes into contact with the human body, it will automatically fit into the body shape and even turn into any color you want... Of course, the one who controls all this is the swaddling worm itself. .

They are very cute, but also very dangerous. They are hidden in various types of vegetation and are difficult to find... Their hunting method also uses this kind of 'silk thread'.

The black clothes that Long was currently wearing, including the combat uniforms that Men Qi and the others were wearing that tightly wrapped their bodies, all benefited from the existence of swaddling insects.

This silk texture can effectively avoid physical damage and strengthen their defensive attributes.

boom!
During the cleaning process of the four people, the river in the distance suddenly turned up with white waves. It felt like they were on the sea. A huge 'whale' jumped high from the water and suddenly crashed down.The calm river water suddenly appeared with ripples like a tsunami.

But they were particularly calm.

They just glanced at it and continued their combing.

As long as any living being does not unleash 'malice' on them, they will not bother to deal with it.

After finishing washing up first, he turned on the system.

Within a year, his ecological score rose to 45.

The status of the food chain remains unchanged.

This made Hao realize one thing. He had absorbed countless souls this year. Even so, the growth was still slow.This shows that...at the edge of the Dark Continent alone, the soul energy dropped by these species, no matter how much magic power and armor are stacked, will still have little effect.

Moreover, the growth rate of the score has obviously slowed down. This is just like in the human world. As the strength increases, the role of ordinary souls also decreases.

It will get harder the further you go.Unless he can enter a 'high-level map', beyond the level of the food chain he is currently in contact with.

Hao is now very much like a level 30 player, gaining experience in a level 20 map... If Men Qi and the others are not following, Hao thinks that in addition to some regular creatures, there are also all the weird things he has encountered so far. ...Looking at the desert and oasis alone, he is already the boss-level life form in these two maps.

Many food chains will be ruthlessly destroyed and changed with his appearance.

The river surged ashore, flooding everything with the force of a tsunami like a natural disaster.

Several mounts flew into the sky.

After a while, the wave receded, and Men Qi and the others broke out of the water again and stepped onto the land.

If this had been three years ago when they first came to the Dark Continent, the three of them would have been washed away.

"Let's go."

Immediately, Hao gave an order.

The team jumped on the back of the mount again and flew high into the sky.

Go straight to the other side.

A few hours later, at dusk.

The four finally arrived at their destination.

A new area, an area with human structures standing on the surface.

There are actually only a dozen buildings in this area, scattered across the land, and each building is extremely far apart.

The size of a single house is dozens or even hundreds of times that of a human palace. It feels like the space inside the house can accommodate a small town. From the outside, it feels like a majestic and majestic maze.

The main body of the house is made of soil and stones, and the roof seems to be covered with grass and trees, but in fact, it is a piece of land covered with trees, flowers and plants, like a suspended island.

It takes a few people to fly high enough to see the entire room.

Viewed from the air, it does look a bit like an earth house or a thatched house.

After landing, Hao's expression was solemn.

The appearance of this kind of building means that... there must be traces of human civilization here.

Beside them, the three men from Men Qi, who were already experienced, could not help but feel shocked.

It looked like nothing from the sky, but when they stood on the ground, they felt the impact deeply. They raised their heads and couldn't even see the top of the house... It seemed like a huge wall bordering the sky was standing in front of them. What's even more amazing is that the light was just The open door of this house is several kilometers long to the left and right.

If they hadn't seen the shape of the entire building in advance, they wouldn't even realize that there was a 'door' in front of them.

Because the door area is so large, for these little humans, it is almost an unobstructed view without any obstruction.

"There...is a city inside this place?"

Anthony's voice trembled.

As far as he could see, he saw many undulating buildings in the darker space inside the house, all with the style of human architecture.

"Captain, when I just flew down, I noticed that there seemed to be a lot of life forms moving on the roof... They seemed to have been living on the roof for a long time, forming a unique ecology." Men Qi looked serious.

The roof of this building is equivalent to a certain area of ​​​​the oasis, which is unimaginably large.

"a little cold."

Anthony said again.

Where they were standing now, the house was almost blocked by the sky. There was no sunlight, and the temperature naturally dropped sharply.

Moreover, the closer they get to the 'city in a room', the more contradictory they feel as they transition from day to night.

"A few little ants... broke into human homes."

Hazy murmured.

"Follow me."

After speaking, he took the lead and walked ahead.

On the way, Hao summoned Meruem and several other spirits and asked them to search the area.

Men Qi and the other three also remained vigilant and looked around.

As long as the scattered spirits are not too far away, Hazy will sense them as soon as they are discovered.

Between him and the spirit body, he 'shares everything'.

The process of walking from the outside to the inside took an hour.

"No signs of life..."

Hazy frowned.

The four of them did not enter the "room" directly. Instead, they sent a large number of ghosts roaring into the sky and pouring into the dark space to conduct a search.

But when these ghosts spread to the furthest extreme distance and automatically turned into black energy and dissipated, he did not receive any 'feedback'.

"A dead city?"

Now you can see the city scene in the room.

It was really a cityscape that gave him the illusion of returning to the human world.

Because the buildings in the house are very small, just like the human world...not doubled.

It's just that the architectural style is relatively old... You can still see streets one after another, and there are burning appliances like street lamps.

This is quite strange. There are obviously various creatures on the roof, but there is no one in the room.

"Is it a ruins?"

Men Qi asked curiously.

This is similar to the information held by the human side.

Some people have also discovered a 'mysterious ancient empty city ruins', a maze city on the other side of the Dark Continent.

The environment is different.

And...the plant weapon gold and silver ingots among the five major disasters are the 'Guardians'.

Does that mean there are some kind of 'guards' here too?

"That ancient labyrinth city once completely defeated the troops sent by the United States. There were only two survivors... It can be seen that even if there are no living bodies, there must be other dangers here." He replied in a deep voice: "I didn't sense it. Life can only mean that it does not yet have a soul form...some microorganisms or weird things may still exist."

"This place is very similar to the labyrinth city..."

"It's a...city within a house."
