Life at Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 457 Exploration, King of Birds

"Boom" sound.

A creature that looks like a tiger is collapsed.

One of them put away his knife, and the other took out a glass bottle.

He activated the mental energy in his hand and a suction force appeared in the glass bottle. The wound of this creature that looked like a tiger continued to bleed, and the blood was absorbed by the glass bottle.

Someone else immediately went up to cut up and separate the body, and kept putting it into the Adventurer's Mark.

“I thought the Dark Continent would be very dangerous, but it seems not to be the case.” One of them said, and he was also holding a special divine creation to prevent the smell of blood from spreading around.

"Don't be careless. Did you read all the information in vain? We are only outside the outer area of ​​Lake Mobius. According to Master Lucci, we are still within the affected area."

As for what kind of influence it is, it is naturally the influence of the "barrier".

The camp has been fully built and has begun to explore outward. Their exploration team is composed of members of the Gale Guild.

"We haven't encountered any real danger yet." The captain, who was the leader, warned.

This is not some secret dungeon, but a real dangerous world, and no one can predict what danger you might suddenly encounter.

"And aren't there enough problems these days?"

It has been nine days since Lucci and his large group set foot on the Dark Continent.

It took nine days to set up the camp, and we continued to explore and map the geography, and learn about and study various animals and plants.

The first problem we encounter is naturally airborne disease.

Even for many biologists, it is impossible to study it thoroughly at the first time, and some people get the disease naturally.

Even those who have the ability to read minds could not resist it, but fortunately this large team was well prepared.

There are people with healing abilities, as well as great doctors, and the people with Nen abilities themselves are strong enough, so it didn't cause any major impact.

Lu Qi and Bi Yangde's plan was simple, they would take one step at a time and steadily head towards the swamp where the longevity rice was grown.

Find out the surrounding situation clearly.

The threat posed by these nine-day creatures is the lowest, because all of them are extremely powerful.

As long as they don't encounter an opponent that is overwhelmed by their size, or an existence under the rules of the Five Great Disasters, they won't be greatly impacted.

The real threat comes from environmental changes, possible diseases, and threats from various microorganisms.

People always need to breathe.

Of course, these threats are also small.

We have just set foot on the Dark Continent, and we have discovered many animals and plants that do not exist in the human world, as well as many variants, just on the outskirts.

As for minerals, more exploration is needed.

Since the purpose of this trip was to obtain longevity rice, most of the rest of the gains along the way were focused on medicinal herbs and plants.

Especially plants, after all, as long as they can be planted, they may trigger the development of multiple industries.

Soon another person came back and fell from the sky.

He turned into an eagle and flew in the sky, looking ahead. To be more precise, he merged with his mind beast and of course used the invisibility technique.

Try to hide your breath as much as possible, the air is never a safe place.

"Captain, there is a cliff ahead, but judging by this continent, where we are now may just be a high ground, and there seems to be a watershed from there..."

The exploration team members report what they see.

Starting from that cliff, all kinds of plants are large, and even an ordinary grass is taller than a person.

Of course, he also saw various creatures, such as dinosaurs, which were everywhere.

Judging by sight alone, although these creatures are huge, they do not pose a threat to them.

But he did not venture beyond the heights.

Who knows what will happen.

"No sub-human species were found nearby."

The Dark Continent naturally has intelligent life, and magical beasts and sub-human races are among them.

But these were not found in this outskirts of Lake Mobius.

"Okay, another demarcation area? Well, that's all for today, let's go back to camp now." The captain gave the order.

Suddenly, a light appeared in their pockets.

"Is this someone asking for help? It's Team Three."

"I remember that No. 3 is the Summoning Guild, right? They are stronger, yet they need help." Someone was surprised.

"We must have encountered a danger that cannot be solved. Let's go there quickly."

They definitely need support.

The fewer people come to the Dark Continent, the more dangerous it is.

There were fifteen teams in total, ten of which were from the Adventurer's Guild of Kerry City, and five were teams composed of other people.

And in one of these "highlands".

A buzzing sound rang out.

There are "hornets" the size of adults all around, which should not cause any harm.

But there are still a lot of surging flowers and vines nearby. Carnivorous plants and carnivorous grasses are not rare things in the Dark Continent.

And there are quite a few of them.

The people from the Summoning Guild had bad luck as they encountered the overlord of this area.

In the Dark Continent, all creatures have their own areas of activity and will not easily leave their living areas because that would mean danger.

The people of the summoning guild were surrounded.

All around them are their "summoned beasts", some of which are mind beasts, while others are pets they have personally raised.

There are dogs, snakes, cats, and so on.

Most of them are from the operation and release departments.

Ten of them can form a team of hundreds.

But there were too many flowers, vines and "bumblebees" and they were dragged here.

Among them, the Bumblebee is a bit overshadowed.

Who knew that the beehive here was actually disguised as a big tree. By the time they discovered it, it was too late.

Of course, for these masters of telepathic abilities, this is actually nothing. If they are given time, it can be solved.

But there were too many bumblebees and flowers and vines that died here, and all kinds of smells were emerging, and they were afraid that they would attract other creatures.

That's why I asked for help.

It is worth mentioning that there are some differences between the landing location of their landing this time and that of the Ochima Federation.

There are no relevant records.

The "blood" of these bumblebees carries a strange fragrance, who knows what it will attract.

"As expected, insects are the most troublesome. After all, most of them live in groups, especially those insects like queen bees and queen ants."

The most powerful thing about the Zerg is the explosion of troops.

At this time, the land not far away suddenly surged, a hole was dug out, and new creatures joined the battle.

Fire ants as big as adults quickly crawled out of the pits and gnawed on the corpses of the bumblebees. The bumblebees and flowers, plants and vines also sent some of their forces to attack the fire ants.

Their stress was relieved, but they felt the situation was even worse.

Because at this time, there was a huge sound of birds singing in the air.

If you could see it, you would find that a giant bird flew out from a giant tree not far from the high ground, with a wingspan of more than thirty meters.

"Hah!" There is also a unique sound of birds singing.

There was a strong gust of wind, and the fire ants and bumblebees became even more violent.

"Look!"

Although they had seen various large creatures in the ocean during the voyage, seeing them again made them feel afraid to look directly at them.

Moreover, this unknown giant blue bird has a strong breath of life.

With a loud "bang", the earth shook.

“So that’s the pothole we found before!”

A huge bird's beak fell from the sky, and the fire ants and bumblebees quickly fell into it.

Just like a chick eating rice.

But the change of perspective is a very scary thing.

In particular, there are the most dead bumblebees around them, and the bird's beak mainly eats this area of ​​​​bumblebees.

Fortunately, they all dodged and took back their pets and mind beasts to avoid any impact.

The Bumblebees that were originally besieging them were in complete chaos.

They began to flee in all directions.

The entire ground was shaking and there were strong winds around.

It was all caused by the giant blue bird's beak pecking the ground and its wings flapping.

Of course, they were not the only ones who saw this scene. Other teams that came to support also saw it, even though they had already been mentally prepared.

But when you really see this giant bird creature as big as a building, you will still feel a sense of fear.

This is a fear that comes from the genetic memory of life, a fear of large creatures.

Fortunately, the giant blue bird's main attention was on the bumblebees and fire ants, and not on humans.

The bodies of the hornets were quickly eaten up, and many of them had already run back to their nests. The giant bird didn't care.

Many flowers, plants and vines were also killed or injured and all fled.

Here you can see movable flowers and vines, which is quite rare when you see them for the first time.

The giant bird didn't care. It scratched the ground with its huge claws, and a large groove appeared on the ground in an instant. At the same time, the fire ants hidden in the ground were dug out.

Apparently, this giant bird prefers creatures like fire ants to bumblebees.

The deeper they dug, the more they found fire ant eggs and the queen ant, which they ate directly.

Lucci, who was in the camp, was the first to sense the movement in the distance and left the camp without hesitation.

Among the fifteen teams, one was led by Bi Yangde.

"Should I say it's bad luck?" Bi Yangde laughed and didn't seem to be worried about this sudden change.

His eyes were looking towards the sky.

In the Dark Continent, it is easy to see various situations where the mantis stalks the cicada, and then the oriole waits behind.

The giant bird's eating behavior may attract larger creatures.

It stopped at a distance and seemed to find nothing. It seemed that there were no other large creatures nearby.

Of course, also worth noting is this giant bird. Does it live in a group?

The dangers faced by creatures in the Dark Continent also vary according to their species. Creatures that live in groups are far more dangerous than those that live alone.

Even among the five major disasters, some people live in groups.

It's hard to deal with just one, and if a large number of them come, it will be like a doomsday disaster.

Lucci was very fast, so he naturally discovered the giant blue bird.

Suddenly the giant bird seemed to sense something.

He lowered his head, raised it up, and looked in one direction.

It was exactly the direction where Lucci was.

A "hehe" voice was heard.

It was this giant bird that was conveying some kind of message.

Of course Lucci didn't understand, but he understood the meaning.

Not what Lucci understood, but what came from Phoenix.

The Phoenix flew out of Lucci's body, with flames rising high and expanding rapidly, and soon turned into a giant firebird.

The original Phoenix did not have this body shape, but it is a mind beast, not just a magical animal.

As long as the mental energy is sufficient, it can naturally become this big.

The message conveyed by the giant bird is "King".

Obviously, this giant bird is also intelligent, just not completely intelligent.

Phoenix also responded to this voice.

The giant blue bird flew up and flew towards Phoenix, but it flew lower than Phoenix.

There were continuous shouts of "He He", and Lucci was constantly shouting: King, King, King.

Obviously, the giant bird probably didn't know what this meant, but Lucci could already feel its submission.

Thinking about how the Phoenix can lead the evolution of birds in the Bassen Rainforest, the phoenix itself is also a very special existence among magical animals.

However, since the World Tree exists in this world, it is possible that there are also Phoenixes in the native world.

Is the Phoenix the "king" of all birds?

Lu Qi didn't quite understand.

But I don't mind exploring this.

He had originally been planning to explore cautiously, but it seemed like he could go for it boldly.

His actions in the Dark Continent were not suitable for being with a large force.

After leaving a message to Bi Yangde, Lucci teleported to Phoenix's body, so his fire naturally could not hurt him.

The giant blue bird led the "king" to his nest.

Lucci didn't mind taking a look.

Soon they flew out of the "high ground".

Various flying creatures in the sky were constantly avoiding it, but some birds also joined in the flight. Lucci could feel that these birds were afraid of this giant blue bird.

But he still followed the Phoenix.

It feels like a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix.

As more birds joined in, Phoenix cried out excitedly, and Lucci also discovered that these birds were sending out air masses that poured into Phoenix's body.

As the "master", Lucci immediately felt the changes.

These air are the life breath of these birds. Only by allowing more birds to offer him this life breath can Phoenix evolve again.

It is basically certain that phoenixes also exist in this dark continent, and they may even be some kind of powerful race.

Soon they arrived at the giant blue bird's nest, a tree taller than the world tree in the human world. Several smaller birds flew out from the tree.

All the birds are cheering "King".
