A new day begins.

The team searching for Nitolomi headed for the depths of the Dark Continent.

It may be that there is some kind of mysterious energy influence. The deeper it goes, the weirder and more dangerous the creatures inside are.

It is manifested in appearance, because it can't see people, it grows freely like a deep-sea species, and it is ugly in various forms.

As for the strength, it can still be handled, and troublesome ones can be avoided.

Among the creatures they encountered, some of them were recorded in the data, the highest level of danger was B.

It theoretically belongs to the same level as the chimera ants that once ravaged NGL.

But in retrospect, the B-level of chimeric ants may refer to the level before the ants did not accidentally learn to read and did not produce intelligence on a large scale.

Because the creatures Shencheng and the others encountered were actually far inferior to the Ant King.

This is mainly because they don't think systematically, and rely solely on the race's innate sexual strength and special abilities to fight.

Intellectual aspects are even more indescribable.

As we all know, the level of human intelligence is inseparable from the influence of their own genes, but what is more important is the shaping of the external environment of society and family education.

This environmental factor relies on the human civilization built by the huge number of human beings and the peaceful environment.

Its content, after careful study, may be able to write biology or sociology papers.

In ecology there is a saying of rk selection.

To put it simply, the biological quality of the k strategy, such as the prenatal and postnatal care of modern humans, fine cultivation, and high survival rate.

The biological weight of the r strategy, for example, some fish will produce a huge number of eggs, the survival rate is low, but it can also maintain the survival of the species under a large base.

In the Dark Continent, the strength threshold required to engage in k-strategy is very high.

Most of these powerful creatures have a fertility rate far below the level of intergenerational replacement, and some of them are not carbon-based life forms at all. Their populations are too low to be civilized, and it is impossible to know them from birth.

Just like Nanika, although her abilities are very buggy, she was really innocent after being locked up in a small black room for 12 years.

In recent years, I have grown up after traveling outside with Yalujia.

Those who engage in r-strategy are basically cannon fodder, and they are precarious, let alone long-term development.

In a sense, humans are the chosen ones.

Those ultimate creatures that seem to be very powerful and perfect, if they can't reach the level of crossing the vacuum, such power may not be useful, and they will still be buried with the earth in the end.

From the current point of view, it is more hopeful for human beings to go to the stars and the sea.

The gatekeeper's contract is largely to protect this spiritual wealth of mankind.

In short, while continuously improving the knowledge of various alien creatures, the team kept moving at high speed for several days.

The surrounding climate and geology have changed.

Creatures that can barely be counted as mammals have gradually disappeared, and now everyone encounters more poisonous substances that look like snakes, rats, and mosquitoes.

These things are very hellish.

For example, transparent, colorless, sharp-toothed, and extremely tiny carnivorous insects will approach them unconsciously, and some disgusting ones will penetrate into the body through nostrils and ear holes.

... Better not give them the chance.

Another example is the extremely fast mutant locust that can eat up all the animals and plants on the surface in an instant.

We can only drive them back with fire, and then take the opportunity to run out of their path.

In addition, there are plants that are buried deep in the soil and are extremely concealed. They suddenly stretch out their tentacles and pull other life into the ground to devour them. What's more frightening is that these plants are also aggregated.

Melody accidentally got caught in a trick. For this reason, everyone had to fight against all such underground plants within a 10m radius while fishing her up from the ground.

Although I don't want to admit it, Hisoka's trick "flexible love" really played a big role at that time.

Facing this kind of intensity and continuous attacks, if their team wasn't an elite team, they would probably have downsized a long time ago.

"...So far, everything has gone smoothly, but this is because we are exploring on the shoulders of our predecessors."

Walking on the muddy ground covered with weeds, Kurapika said seriously, "Although the information is from many years ago, the change is not too big."

"But after that we have to go into the swamp."

The melody lifted the spirits: "The hell bell there is a two-tailed snake. It has not been cracked yet. The best known result in the record is to escape."

Perhaps Chairman Netero and some other people also encountered the two-tailed snake and survived, but after all, it is only a guess, and there is no actual record.

This is also the creature she most wants to find out, which may be related to the Dark Sonata.

"That's right, the two-tailed snake and the nitolomi live in the same environment, and it's almost impossible to avoid them."

Kurapika said, "So don't take it lightly."

"Also, there are earplugs for each person in your pocket, don't forget to wear them when you need them, maybe they will be useful."

The pre-preparation was indeed very detailed.

Xiaojie sighed wildly: "I always feel that Kurapika after entering the Dark Continent has the feeling of Aunt Mitt."

"Not bad! Kurapika, you have become like a mother!"

Leorio booed excitedly.

And on Kurapika's side, the originally hanging fist gradually hardened... It is self-evident what Leori and Xiaojie will face next.

Shencheng whispered wisely, "It's probably because of worrying too much."

Qi Ya replied, "Indeed."

He breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and thanked Kurapika vaguely.

God knows, the person who used to play the role of this worrying mother was Qi Ya herself.

Thanks to Kurapika for taking on this heavy responsibility now.

Just kidding.

Everyone in the team is still watching their surroundings vigilantly.

Especially after stepping into the swamp, everyone was engrossed.

Nitolomi is a rare plant that grows here, and the number is not much.

Its characteristics are also well documented, the jagged and thin leaves, the rhizome is black, and the fruit it bears is extremely pure white, and the size is similar to a grain of rice, so it is called "rice".

There have been records of transplanting in history, but unfortunately, they failed.

The researchers could not answer the principle of this.

After all, this swamp is the wilderness, not a well-behaved medicine field where people can pick it.

It is not easy to find such a small grass in a vast area, not to mention there are all kinds of creatures from the underworld staring at them, wanting to have some extra food.

Although everyone played circles from time to time, the melody also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

But the creatures in this strange land seem to be integrated with the overall environment and belong to nature.

Just like Xiaojie who tricked Hisoka into taking the number plate during the hunter exam, he is usually in a near-extreme state, and it is difficult to be noticed.

It's a complete enemy.

Falling into the vast ocean of many snakes, ants, insects and beasts, I searched for it without a clue, but there was no result.

"There's nothing here, it's all mud."

Difficult to get his feet out of the mud, looking at the dirty shoes, Leorio complained involuntarily.

"Be quiet, Leorio."

Kurapika subconsciously said, "We can't continue to investigate like you."

Normally, this topic should stop here.

But today's Leorio was controlled by a wave of emotions in his heart, and he became more serious.

"Wait for me, the only thing I said is the sentence just now."

Leorio yelled, "Where will it affect the reconnaissance?"

Kurapika walked forward on his own: "It will make us unable to hear the sound."

"Even if I didn't speak, didn't you hear any clues?"

It may be because there has been no progress, resulting in anxiety, and the two couldn't help but say a few more words.

This made Melody frown.

Originally, that sentence didn't affect her, but after such a quarrel, people couldn't hear it clearly.

On the other hand, Xiaojie also has other ideas.

"It's not a matter of speaking or not speaking."

Xiaojie suddenly said, "It's because our efficiency of acting together is too low, why don't we act separately!"

"No, that's too dangerous."

Kurapika immediately refused.

But Xiaojie is a stubborn donkey character who can't pull back eight cows after making a decision.

Growing up, she has not suffered a huge blow, so this character is naturally difficult to get rid of.

Gon and Kurapika disagree at this time.

The public says that the public is right, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is right, and no one can convince anyone for a while.

Coupled with the addition of several other people, the scene became more or less chaotic.

"I don't care."

Qi Ya's eyes darkened, and he stomped a poisonous frog that fired spikes under his feet, emitting a burnt aroma.

Alluka shook her head, a little confused.

He knew that if Xiaojie left, his brother would definitely follow.

It stands to reason that he should go with Kira, but Alluka doesn't want us to be separated.

Shencheng didn't speak for the time being, because she suddenly wanted to play fast-paced games, because she had an inexplicable game addiction.

"Well~, it just so happens that I'm almost a little bored."

Just when everyone was exploring and having a conflict of opinion, Hisoka suddenly interjected, "If there is still no decent opponent after this..."

"Among you, let someone come and have a fight with me?"

As he spoke, he licked his lips and put his thumb between his middle finger and ring finger, making a meaningful gesture.
