Chapter 353: Extremely Dark

The reason why it is unreasonable is because I know very well in my heart that human nature cannot stand the test.

Either way, it's important for me to understand the rules of the game in a dark world.

I walked up to a child and withdrew the concealment.

He was startled at the moment when I suddenly appeared, and his shoulders trembled twice, but the darkness of the environment shaped his bravery, and he quickly stabilized his mind, raised his head, and looked at me with a puzzled expression.

In the fluorescence, I could see his face and he could see mine.

At this time, the children around me also stood up and looked at me vigilantly.

I raised the corners of my mouth slightly, smiling.

Seeing me laugh, the vigilance in the eyes of these children deepened a little.

In their eyes, the smile I showed was not only not the slightest kindness, but full of aggression.

A smile, in this world, seems to be a unique emblem of the strong, and only when they face the weak, will they show a similar expression.

I know, it may not be particularly easy to understand, it doesn't matter, what happens next, you may not be able to understand it.

I pulled a chocolate bar out of my backpack, tore open the wrapper, and handed it to the boy who spotted me first.

The boy sniffed what I had given him, then his eyes lit up as if he had discovered a new world, and then he stuffed the whole chocolate bar into his mouth and chewed it greedily, recklessly savoring every hint of sweetness in his mouth.

At that moment, a taller child pounced like a tiger and grabbed the boy by the neck, and before he could choke him, the boy had quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.

The taller boy opened his mouth and found that it was empty, and his eyes burst into extreme anger.

I pulled out another chocolate bar and handed it to the tall man.

Like the former, he quickly shoved the food into his mouth and chewed greedily, only more slowly and with a more relaxed expression on his face.

Of all the children, this boy was the most burly and tallest, and he must have been the head of the children here, and no one dared to snatch food from his mouth.

I waited for him to swallow the chocolate in his mouth, and I watched silently without any extra moves.

Once he had swallowed all the chocolate in his mouth, he pointed to my backpack and spread his hand out at me.

That means, let me give him the backpack.

I still didn't say anything, just stared at him silently.

The silence seemed to irritate him, and he immediately bent down, picked up a scrap of iron from the ground, and then pointed vigorously at my backpack again: "Leave your bag behind." ”

As he spoke, every child present picked up their belongings from the ground, most of them holding scrap iron in their hands, and very few found stones on the ground.

In everyone, there is a strong sense of murderous intent and greed.

As early as when I appeared, they already had murderous intent in their hearts, but this is when greed peaked.

I sighed silently in my heart and performed the invisibility technique again, hiding my form.

Because of the blessing of the light array, and the light here is dim enough, the concealment technique is enough to make me disappear without a trace in front of everyone's eyes.

A bunch of children stared at where I had just stood, all stunned.

The tall man kept licking his lips, as if trying to remind himself with the aftertaste of chocolate that everything that had just happened was true, and that there had indeed been a person in front of him just now.

I ignored the children, found a path where no one was around, and quickly left the shantytown.

After a brief trial, I have figured out the rules of the game in this world.

The children didn't just pick up pieces of iron and stones from the ground, they didn't just want to scare me, they wanted to kill me, take food, water, and meat from me.

At the beginning, they had murderous intent towards me, and at that time they didn't know that I had other food on me, and at that time, I was the food in their eyes.

It's just that they don't know my details, so they don't dare to do it rashly.

Before the big man stretched out his hands to me, I noticed a detail, that is, the children standing at the opposite end of the shanty town were looking at him, it was indeed a very dark world for me, but these children had long been accustomed to the darkness, and even I could notice that someone was giving him a look, and he could see what these two eyes meant.

If I'm not mistaken, the meaning of those two glances is probably "He came alone, without company." ”

After learning my details, the tall man immediately decided to kill without the slightest hesitation.

You know, he was still only twelve or thirteen years old.

But the older the child, the more they can reflect the rules of the game in the world in which they live.

It is a world that is completely plunged into darkness, from the environment to humanity, immersed in darkness.

But in such a world, the rules of the game are also unusually simple and straightforward, and whoever has the biggest fist is the axiom.

In this place, the intrigue and deceit of the outside world have been diluted, and under the extreme pressure of survival, the most primitive and barbaric force is the hub that maintains everything.

Alas, not long after I stepped into the underworld, I began to miss the open sea.

It's not a place for people at all!

After coming into contact with the children in the shantytown, I hid myself completely, and I had planned to find a local guide, but now it seems that this intention is as stupid as it gets, but if I talk to anyone, he will gather the people around me to attack me.

Because I look like I'm from the surface world, and I have food with me, the people here have good reasons to take my life.

I walked in the dark for nearly two hours, passing through several shanty towns, at first, as I went deeper and deeper, the fluorescence became brighter and brighter, until the light around me was as gray as the evening, and the intensity of the light did not change in any way.

But until now, I still don't know where the fluorescence floating in the air comes from.

As we passed over a shantytown with a less strong stench, there was a sudden deafening scream in the distance, and the sound was so terrible that it seemed to have been squeezed straight out of a person's chest.

I immediately stopped and listened hard with my ears sideways.

A terrible roar rang out again, spreading and wandering through the dark world.

It wasn't the voice of one person, but a group of people screaming at the same time.

I sighed inwardly, then pulled out the barrel of my gun, tightened the tip, and felt it in the direction where the roar was coming from.
