Hunter: I'm really not a mind remover

Chapter 449 The Gate of Hell
After a few minutes.

Moyou hung up the phone, frowning.

The night wind in the mountains blew the whirling sound of leaves, and when it hit the body, it was wrapped in wisps of heat.

But Moyou felt cold in his heart.

At first, Moyou was startled when he heard that Hawke was running out of time, but then he thought of the curse of "King of Libra".

As long as it is a phenomenon related to "mind", it is easy to handle, and there is always a solution.

But after listening to Qi Duo's narration, Moyou's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

The problem Hawk is facing now is indeed brought about by "Nian", it's just that kind of phenomenon...

is an irreversible loss of life.

Just like the cost of using "absolute time" by Kurapika...

It's not an injury, so it can't be solved by the healing ability.

It is not a curse, so it cannot be solved by the ability to eliminate thoughts.

This is the end of life among birth, old age, sickness and death.

Maybe in a month, maybe in a week, or tomorrow.

Hawke may fall into dead silence forever when he closes his eyes.

Moyou lowered his head, as if the picture of Hawk lying on the rocking chair in the daytime flashed before his eyes, his brows frowned even tighter.

"By the way, I have counterpoint cornerstones."

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a gleam of light shone in Moyou's eyes.

But the luster suddenly stopped at the next moment.

"The first 'Counterpoint Stone' has been used by me..."

Moyou muttered to himself, and then thought of the stone tablet of the legendary road, he couldn't help but stabilize his mind, and his spirit sank into the space of consciousness.

Under the night sky full of bright stars, the burning campfire brings light and warmth.

Not far from the bonfire, a stone tablet surrounded by plants stands quietly.

On the front of the stele, there are only three grooves inlaid with dark purple beads.

This is the result of destroying the Phantom Troupe in the Sky Arena, but it is still two dark purple beads away from the second "Counterstone"...

Not to mention whether the "counterpoint cornerstone" can work, just condensing a deep purple bead requires a huge reputation, and it can't be done in a short time.

Moyou silently withdrew from the space of consciousness.

Facing the scorching evening wind, he thought of the universal wishing machine for beating the enemy's family.

However, how could the beating enemy family, which is extremely afraid of Nanika, take a huge risk for an outsider.

Even if Moyu pulls out a needle in Kiya's head, the Dadike family realizes that Nanika's "wishing ability" also has a "force" mechanism...

The most likely development will be that the Beating Enemy family, who learned the secret, immediately restrained Qiya, the key that can unlock Nanika's ability, and then tried every means to get rid of any outsiders.

Moyu took a long breath and rejected the method of using the "Wishing Machine" to prolong Hawk's life.

"Nitolomi..."

Finally, Moyu thought of Nitolomi from the Dark Continent.

It is one of the five hopes known to mankind to exist in the Dark Continent, and it is a longevity food that can prolong life.

But how to go to the Dark Continent, and how to get Nitolomi, are all difficult things.

But Moyu had no choice.

If Hawk is aging normally, then wait for the time limit to come.

Then Moyu will not choose to go to the perilous Dark Continent to find Nitolomi in order to prolong Hawk's life, but will accompany Hawke in his later years, so that Hawke can live through the last moment of his life without regret.

"Five Great Hopes, Five Great Disasters... If I remember correctly, the 'disaster' in the area where Nitolomi is located is the Hell Ringing Two-Tailed Snake, but I forgot which direction Nitolomi is in the Dark Continent..."

Moyou tried hard to recall the original information about the Dark Continent.

But how could he remember some trivial things so clearly.

Besides, he himself has no interest in the Dark Continent. After coming to this world, he has never paid attention to the Dark Continent.

To say why-

There are many reasons.

He once overlooked the world and the dark continent beyond the world from the reader's perspective.

So it is very clear about the vastness, danger, mystery, and treachery of the Dark Continent...

He knew that Nitero, the strongest in the world, challenged the Dark Continent for the second time, but he was rejected in both cases, and in the end he couldn't even cross the threshold.

Perhaps because he was deeply aware of the horror of the Dark Continent, Nitero regarded exploring the Dark Continent as a taboo for the Hunter Association after his return.

But to professional hunters, the mystery and the unknown are no different from the wonderful things exuding fragrance, which always make them flock to them.

For this reason, Netero had to exercise various methods and rights, just to do his best to close the road to explore the dark continent.

This shows how dangerous the Dark Continent is, and it can make the strongest in the world so fearful.

Moyu also knows...

According to the public and even non-public records kept by the Transit and Navigation Bureau, human beings have never completed a round trip to the Dark Continent by their own strength, and the survival rate of exploring the Dark Continent is infinitely close to zero.

This means that just reaching the Dark Continent is already an extremely difficult challenge.

finally--

If you can condense the responsibilities of the Transit Bureau, which manages the entire world, into one simple sentence, then it is...

Don't let anyone go to the Dark Continent!

So much so that Jin in the original book could not get permission to go to the Dark Continent anyway. Even if he had the idea of ​​smuggling, he would eventually be suppressed by Netero.

So when the character "Biyang De" suddenly broke into the world's field of vision, and raised his arms and shouted the heroic words to lead all mankind to open up the dark continent...

Even if Jin in the original book had a feeling of being upset by others, he still had to admit Biyangde's qualifications, and even wanted to let Biyangde take him to the Dark Continent.

Moyu is not Jin nor Biyangde.

He didn't have Jin's dream of exploring the dark continent as his life goal, nor did he have the ambition to conquer the unknown land like Yang De.

But now he—

Simply need a Nitolomi plant.

It's just that this kind of thing is definitely not something he can do alone.

"Ask Kim's opinion."

Moyou took out the mobile phone that had just been put away, and dialed Jin's number.

After a few seconds.

There was a sound from the mobile phone that the other party had turned off.

"Are you busy?"

Moyou put down his phone, thinking of what Jin said some time ago that he was going to deal with a biological disaster.

When professional hunters perform commissions or hunt targets, they will basically choose to turn off the phone or adjust the phone to silent.

Let Jin choose to shut down, it seems that this biological catastrophe is not a trivial matter.

Moyou sent Jin a text message to call back when he had time, then put away his phone and looked towards the brightly lit temple in the distance.

In the past, when night fell, there were only a few lights left.

But the arrival of Menqi and Xiaodi made Hawke turn on all the lights in the temple.

Moyou stared at the lights in the temple, sighed after a long time, and walked back to the temple slowly.

The night is getting darker.

Moyu returned to his room.

Turning on the light, the bright light made him immediately realize that Hawke had replaced a new lamp.

The furnishings in the room were the same as before, but they were cleaned very cleanly, and under the illumination of the lights, there was basically no dust to be seen.

Moyou came to the window, raised his hand and opened the window, and vaguely heard Hawke's hearty laughter and Menqi's echoing voice from the other side of the courtyard.

From the laughter, it was obvious that Hawke was very happy.

Moyou stopped by the window, thought for a while, and decided to hide from Hawke the plan to go to the Dark Continent to find Nitolomi.

"I can't do it alone."

After turning off the too bright electric light, Moyu sat on the bed.

The environment of the Dark Continent is extremely cruel and full of countless unknown dangers.

To travel far in this environment, you must have professional skills that can cope with various situations.

Moyou lowered his eyes, and the figures of Men Qi, Bi Siji, Pyorn, Kang Zai, Mo Laowu and others flashed in his mind...

He needs help, but not everyone dares to challenge the Dark Continent.

That is tantamount to crossing a mountain of swords into a sea of ​​fire, and you may die anytime, anywhere.

more importantly--

Everyone's pursuit is different.

There are actually not many people like Jin and Bi Yangde who are aiming for the Dark Continent.

Moyou bent over, clasped the phone with both hands, and stared down at the floor, lost in thought.

He is hesitating...

Anyway, wait for Kim's call back first.

Before that, all he can decide is how to use the set of rewards such as the cornerstone of the mind space, the effect of the oath, and the memory capacity.

Originally, he was more inclined to use this set of ability materials for "offensive"...

But if he really wants to go to the Dark Continent, then he obviously needs a shadow space similar to the "four-dimensional apartment".

Ezen Continent.

The sky was full of wind and clouds, and the stars and the moon were not seen.

In a remote mountain forest, there was a slender, pale and naked figure running away.

If Moyou was here, he would definitely recognize this figure as Mamen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

It's just that Mamen looks particularly embarrassed at this moment, and it can even be said to be tragic.

There was a wound on his waist and abdomen that was suspected to be cut by a sickle, and blood was gurgling.

The right arm hangs weakly on the side of the body, dangling like a rootless duckweed as the body runs, and the bat-shaped wings on the back are also severely injured, one side is broken at the root, and the other side is only a small half.

suddenly--

A stream of light wrapped in thoughts fell from midair in front of Mamen.

Seeing the stream of light fall, Mammon's face twitched, and she was forced to slow down and stop.

The streamer then dissipated, revealing Jin's figure.

He looked at Mamen, who was seriously injured, and suggested with some fatigue: "You can't escape. As far as the status quo is concerned, negotiation is the only option for you to survive."

"..."

Mammon remained silent, her face with only one black eyeball looked a little ferocious.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.

The sudden light reflected a figure in the distance behind Mammon.

It was the figure of Kate, and together with Jin, who had just landed, formed a front and back double-teaming trend against the fleeing Mamen.

Jin's gaze pierced the darkness, landed on Mammon, and said in a negotiating tone: "We will give you a chance to negotiate, and it depends on whether you are willing to accept it."

"Coo, coo coo..."

Mammon's shoulders twitched slightly, and she let out a slightly weird laugh.

From the perspective of Jin and Kate, they could hear the sneer and sarcasm in that laughter.

But the two of them didn't care and waited patiently for Mammon's reply.

after a few seconds.

Mammon slowly stopped laughing, and looked at Jin indifferently. As for Kate behind him, he never looked back from the beginning to the end.

The reason why he was seriously injured and fell into such a field was more because of the man in front of him who proposed to negotiate.

"The so-called negotiation...is it to make the process of me being forced to accept the 'Warcraft Management Regulations' more formal?"

Mammon's tone did not hide the irony: "Why are you so hypocritical, you know very well... Once I stay away from the human settlement, it is equivalent to losing the most basic security."

"At least you can live."

There was a trace of complexity in Jin's gaze towards Mammon.

It is a very cruel behavior to use coercive means to compress the living environment of a certain creature.

But as the human side, there is no reason to allow Mammon to base the living environment on human life.

more importantly--

They have the status of professional hunters, and they also need to fulfill the responsibilities entrusted to them by the Hunter Association.

Hearing Jin's words, Mammon's face became more ferocious, and his voice suddenly became hoarse and deep: "To me, what's the difference between that and death?"

"..."

Jin Wenyan was silent.

Mammon's chest rose and fell sharply, and he paused every word: "I know what to do to survive better, so I have never killed any human beings."

"But many people died because of you."

Jin disagreed with Mammon's statement, and immediately refuted it.

Mamen didn't make any excuses either, but said coldly: "The cause of their death is that they couldn't control their greedy desires."

"You have the right to justify this, and this will be one of your negotiating assets."

Jin looked calm, and did not point out Mammon's ability to induce greed, but reminded Mammon that this point of view could be used in subsequent negotiations.

This is his attitude and concession towards this incident, as well as his goodwill towards the act of "survival".

However, Mammon did not accept Jin's kindness.

His face was contorted, and an aura mixed with strands of black emerged from his pale and bloodless body.

"Even if those humans died because of me, aren't they all damned? A human I know said..."

"Are you open to negotiation?"

Jin interrupted Mammon.

He knew that the human being that Mammon was talking about was Moyu, but he was not interested in listening to Mammon's continued explanation of the persecution of human beings.

Letting Mammon accept the negotiation is a prerequisite for subsequent exchanges.

At this time, Jin was a little thankful that he didn't insist on letting Moyou come with him.

Otherwise, with Moyu's style of acting as a bounty hunter, deciding the matter of "life and death of criminals", I'm afraid he will stand in the same camp as Mammon.

"..."

Facing the so-called negotiation mentioned by Jin again, Mammon fell silent suddenly, and then sneered silently.

To him, if he accepts the management regulations of monsters and is confined to a demonic domain similar to no man's land, it is a kind of slow death for him.

And he also knows that human beings' concessions to alien races are very limited.

Mammon knew that the human being in front of him clearly had the ability to kill him, but it was already an act of goodwill to give him a chance to negotiate.

But he did not want to accept this handout.

"In a certain religious belief of your humans, there is a cognition called 'the gate of hell'."

Instead of responding to the negotiation, Mammon mentioned things that had nothing to do with the matter.

Jin's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't understand the meaning for the time being.

Mamen suddenly raised his hand and took off the black agate-like eyeball, holding it between his narrow and sharp fingers, and crushed the black eyeball without hesitation.

"I will open the passage. For you humans, it should be the gate of hell."

The fine sand-like powder spilled from the fingers, Mammon's eyes were empty and dark, and there seemed to be bottomless malice hidden in them.

Immediately afterwards, a surging black aura erupted from Mammon's body.

Jin and Kate's complexion changed, and they all prepared for battle as if they were conditioned reflexes.

It seems that they do not accept the negotiation, so they can only...

Kim and Kate thought in unison.

however--

Just when they were preparing to fight, they saw that Mammon shrouded in a surging aura gradually turned into fine sand like a weathered statue, and then was slowly blown away by the wind.

This phenomenon seems to have exhausted its strength in order to activate a certain ability.

Reminiscent of what Mammon said just now about "opening the passage" and "the gates of hell"...

"..."

Jin frowned.

He didn't know what Mammon did in the end, but he had a vague premonition.
