A few minutes later.

Moyu hung up the phone and frowned.

The night wind in the mountains made the leaves rustle, and when it hit the body, it carried wisps of heat.

But Moyu felt cold in his heart.

At first, Moyu was shocked when he heard that Hawke was running out of time, but then he thought of the curse of the "King's Scale".

As long as it is a phenomenon related to "thoughts", it will be easy to deal with, and there will always be a solution.

But after listening to Chiduo's narration, Moyou's heart sank to the bottom.

The problem Hawke is facing now is indeed caused by "thoughts", it's just that kind of phenomenon...

It is an irreversible loss of life.

Just like the cost of Kurapika's use of "Absolute Time"...

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

It's not a curse, so it can't be solved by the ability to remove thoughts.

This is the end of life in the midst of birth, old age, illness and death.

Maybe it’s a month from now, maybe it’s a week from now, maybe it’s tomorrow.

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

Moyu lowered his head, and the scene of Hawke lying on the rocking chair during the day seemed to pass before his eyes, and his brows furrowed even more tightly.

"By the way, I have the cornerstone of my matchup."

A sudden inspiration flashed in his mind, and a glimmer of light lit up in Moyu's eyes.

But the luster suddenly stopped at the next moment.

"I have already used the first 'counterpoint cornerstone'..."

Moyu murmured to himself, and then thought of the stone tablet on the Legend Road. He couldn't help but steady his mind and sink into the space of consciousness.

Under the night sky full of bright stars, a bonfire brings light and warmth.

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

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

This is the result of wiping out the Phantom Troupe in the Sky Arena, but there are still two dark purple beads left to condense the second "Confrontation Cornerstone"...

Not to mention whether the "counterpoint cornerstone" can work, just condensing a dark purple bead requires a huge reputation, which cannot be achieved in a short time.

Moyu silently exited the consciousness space.

Facing the hot evening breeze, he thought of the universal wishing machine that could defeat the enemy and the Hakka family.

However, how could the Kamike family, who were extremely afraid of Naniga, take huge risks for an outsider?

Even if Moyu pulls out a needle from Killua's head, making the Hakka family realize that Naniga's "wishing ability" also has a "forced" mechanism...

The most likely development is that after learning the secret, the Kami Ke family will immediately restrain Killua, the key that can unlock Naniga's ability, and then find ways to deal with any outsider.

Moyu breathed a sigh of relief and rejected the method of using the "wishing machine" to extend Hawke's life.

"Nitolomi..."

Finally, Moyu thought of Nitolomi in the Dark Continent.

It is one of the five greatest hopes known to mankind that exists in the Dark Continent. It is a longevity food that can extend life.

But how to get to the Dark Continent and how to get Nitolomi are both as difficult as climbing to the sky.

But Moyu had no other choice.

Assume Hawke ages normally and waits for the time limit to come.

Then Moyu will not choose to go to the dangerous dark continent to find Nitolomi in order to extend Hawke's life. Instead, he will accompany Hawke in his later years, allowing Hawke to spend the last moment of his life without regrets.

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

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

But how could he remember some trivial things so clearly.

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

To tell you why——

There are many reasons.

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

So I know very well the vastness, danger, mystery, and treachery of the Dark Continent...

He knew that Nitro, who was once the strongest in the world, challenged the Dark Continent for the second time, only to be rejected. In the end, he could not even cross the threshold.

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

But for professional hunters, mystery and the unknown are nothing more than wonderful things exuding fragrant scent, which always attract them.

For this reason, Nitro had to use various means and rights, just to do his best to close the road to explore the dark continent.

This shows how dangerous the Dark Continent is, which can make the world's strongest people so fearful.

Moyu also knows...

According to the public and even non-public records kept by the Ferry Navigation Bureau, humans 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.

at last--

If the responsibilities of the Ferry Administration, which covers the entire world, were condensed into a concise sentence, it would be...

Don’t let anyone go to the Dark Continent!

So much so that Jin in the original book was unable to get permission to go to the Dark Continent no matter what. Even if he had the idea of ​​​​smuggling, he would eventually be restrained by Nitro.

So when the character "Bi Yangde" suddenly burst into the world's sight, and raised his arms high, he shouted out the bold words of leading all mankind to open up the dark continent...

In the original work, even though Jin felt unhappy about being the first to get there, he still had to admit Biyang De's qualifications, and even thought about asking Biyang De to take him to the Dark Continent.

Moyo is not Kim, nor is he Biyangde.

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

But now he——

All I need is a Nitolomi plant.

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

"Ask Kim's opinion."

Moyu took out his recently put away mobile phone and dialed Jin's number.

A few seconds later.

However, there was a notification sound from the phone that the other party had been turned off.

"Are you busy?"

Moyu put down his phone and thought about what Jin said some time ago about dealing with a biological disaster.

Professional hunters will basically choose to turn off their phones or set their phones to silent when executing a commission or hunting a target.

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

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

In the past, only a few lights were left on at night.

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

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

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 the lamp with a new one.

The furnishings in the room were as before, except that they were cleaned very clean. Under the light of the light, there was basically no dust.

Moyu came to the window, raised his hand to push open the window, and vaguely heard Hawke's hearty laughter coming from the other side of the courtyard, as well as Menqi's echo.

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

Moyu stopped at the window, thought about it, and decided to hide his plan to go to the Dark Continent to find Nitolomi from Hawke.

"I definitely can't do it alone."

Turning off the too bright light, Moyu sat on the bed.

The environment in 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.

Moyu lowered his eyes, and the figures of Menqi, Bisiji, Pyoen, Kangzai, Mo Laowu and others passed through his mind...

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

That is tantamount to walking through a mountain of knives and into a sea of ​​fire, and you may die at any time and at any time.

more importantly--

Everyone's pursuits are different.

In fact, there are not many people like Jin and Biyande who aspire to the Dark Continent.

Moyu bent over, folded his hands to hold the phone, and stared at the floor in deep thought.

He is hesitating...

Anyway, let’s wait for Jin’s call back.

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

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

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

Aizhen continent.

The sky was turbulent and there were no stars or moon.

Somewhere in an inaccessible mountain forest, there was a pale, naked and slender figure running away.

If Moyu were here, he would definitely recognize this figure as Mammon, whom he had not seen for a long time.

But at this moment, Mamen looked particularly embarrassed, even miserable.

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

The right arm hangs weakly at the side, dangling like a rootless duckweed as the body runs. The bat-shaped wings on the back were also severely damaged, with one side completely broken off and only half of the other side left.

suddenly--

A stream of light wrapped in thought energy fell from mid-air in front of Mamen.

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

The stream of light then dissipated, revealing Jin's figure.

He looked at Mammon, who was seriously injured, and suggested tiredly: "You can't escape. As far as the current situation is concerned, negotiation is the only option that can keep you alive."

"..."

Mamen was silent, and her face, with only one black eye left, looked slightly ferocious.

At this time, a flash of lightning flashed across the sky.

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

That was Kate's figure, together with Jin who had just landed, forming a double-team on the fleeing Mamen.

Jin's eyes pierced through the darkness, fell on Mamen, and said in a negotiating tone: "We will give you the opportunity to negotiate, it depends on whether you are willing to accept it."

"Gu, Gu Gu..."

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

From Kim and Kate's perspective, one could hear the sneer and ridicule in the laughter.

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

After a few seconds.

Mammen slowly stopped laughing and looked at Jin with cold eyes. As for Kate behind him, he never looked back to take another look.

The reason why he was seriously injured and ended up in this situation was mostly because of the man in front of him who proposed the negotiation.

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

There was no trace of sarcasm in Mammon's tone: "Why are you so hypocritical? You know very well... Once I stay away from human settlements, it is equivalent to losing the most basic guarantee."

"At least you're alive."

Jin looked at Mammon with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

Using coercive means to compress the living environment of a certain creature is a very cruel act.

But as a human being, there is no reason to let Mammon base its living environment on human life.

more importantly--

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

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

"..."

Jin was silent when he heard this.

Mammon's chest rose and fell sharply, and she said word by word: "I understand what to do to survive better, so I have never killed any human being."

"But a lot of people died because of you."

Jin did not agree with Mammon's statement and immediately refuted it.

Mammon did not defend himself, but said coldly: "Their death was due to their inability to control their greed."

"You have the right to defend this, and that 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 he could use this point of view in subsequent negotiations.

This is his attitude and concession towards this incident, and it is also the goodwill he released towards the act of "survival".

However, Mammon did not accept Jin's kindness.

His face was distorted, 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 still people who deserve to die? A human I know said..."

"Do you accept negotiations?"

Jin interrupted Mammon.

He knew that the human being Mammon was talking about was Moyu, but he was not interested in listening to Mammon continue to elaborate on the persecution of human beings.

And allowing Mammon to accept negotiations is a prerequisite for subsequent exchanges.

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

Otherwise, with Moyu's bounty hunter style of conduct, his attitude on the matter of "life and death of criminals" would probably be on the same side as Mammon.

"..."

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

If he accepts the Warcraft Management Regulations and is restricted to a demonic realm similar to no man's land, it will be a kind of slow death for him.

And he also knew that human beings' concessions to aliens were very limited.

Mammon knew that the human in front of her clearly had the ability to kill him, but she still wanted to give him a chance to negotiate. This was already a sign of goodwill.

But he didn't want to accept this handout.

"In some of your human religious beliefs, there is a cognition called the 'Gate of Hell'."

Mammon did not respond to the negotiation, but instead mentioned things that had nothing to do with the matter.

Jin's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't know what he meant for the moment.

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

"I will open the passage. To you humans, that should be the gate to hell."

Sand-like powder spilled from her fingers, and Mammon's eyes were empty and dark, as if there was bottomless malice hidden in them.

Immediately afterwards, a surging black aura suddenly burst out from Mammon.

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

It seems that the negotiation is not accepted, so the only option is...

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 was slowly blown away by the wind.

This phenomenon seems to be that all the strength is exhausted in order to activate a certain ability.

Think of what Mammon said just now about "opening the passage" and "the gate to hell"...

"..."

Jin's brows furrowed.

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