Chapter 16: The Clues
The street was not far from the headquarters of the Hurricane Adventure Troupe, and Senjurou followed Taio for less than ten minutes before he came to a three-story stone house with rough decorations.
Pushing open the door, the two of them came to the living room on the first floor under the respectful eyes of the young adventurers in the room.
As soon as they sat down, a maid brought a steaming black drink.
Chijuro picked it up and tasted it.
Well, similar to the taste of coffee.
"Mr. Theo, I can see that you are very much loved by the members."
"Mr. Purgatory has won the award, I just did what a regiment leader should do, so I was recognized by the members of the group, and it is not worth mentioning."
"It's not easy to do your part."
Drinking the drink in the cup, feeling the bitter and sweet taste, Tai'an smiled: "Mr. Purgatory, I'm a rough person, so I'm not polite, I'll be straightforward." â
"In the early years, I had been helped by Ms. Mosca, and I had always wanted to find an opportunity to repay her, and now that I have finally arrived, it really makes me feel emotional. Therefore, I will take on the role of guide this time. â
"According to Ms. Mosca, Mr. Purgatory is going to explore the 'dark zone', so I don't know, how far does he want to go?" [space]
Hearing this, Chijuro asked suspiciously: "To extent?" â
Seeing his reaction, Tai'an immediately understood that the little gentleman on the other side was not very clear about the situation in the dark zone, and explained with a smile: "This is what our locals call us. Depending on the concentration of energy and the degree of danger, we divide the Dark Zone into four areas, from shallow to deep. â
"They are the outer area, the tidal wave area, the high-risk area, and the deepest core area."
"The outer area is the safest area in the entire dark zone, there are few dark monsters, and the level is basically in the middle of the alpha level, which is suitable for the experience of newcomers. Of course, after all these years, if you want to find the Ghost Crystal in the outer area, you know. â
"The tidal wave area, as the name suggests, the secluded energy concentration in this area is like the tide of the sea, rising and falling, and at the highest peak, there may even be a ghostly monster at the peak of the alpha level, so if you want to explore in this area, if you don't have the strength of the late alpha level, don't go to death. Almost all of the phantom crystals in the outside world are produced from this area. â
"High-risk area, just listen to the name, you know how dangerous this area is. The concentration of secluded energy here is already very high, as long as ordinary people come into contact with it, they will definitely die, even if they are supernatural, they can't stay in it for too long, otherwise it is very easy to become a deformed monster that has lost their consciousness and is eroded by it. There are no dark creatures that appear here that are lower than the beta level, and even I can't stay in this area for long, if I am unlucky and encounter more than five beta-level ghost monsters, I will definitely die in the environment there. â
"As for the final core area, Mr. Purgatory, I'm not afraid of your jokes, but as soon as I took a step, a great horror swelled up in my heart, as if I would die here in the next moment. In a hurry, I exited the core area, so I don't know what happened. However, I am sure that in the core area, there must be an omega-level ghostly monster. â
"Because I don't know your strength, sir, I take the liberty of asking, which area does sir plan to go deep into?"
Speaking of this, Tai'an glanced at the young man opposite, but a strong curiosity appeared in his heart.
In his correspondence with Mosca, he learned that this little gentleman named "Purgatory" was a very powerful existence, but at this moment, when he looked closely, in his eyes, the young man was like an ordinary person, and there was no trace of transcendent existence in his body.
But this is clearly impossible.
So, is it because the gap between yourself and the other party is too large, which leads to the perception error? However, the peak of Beta, who is only a line away from Omega, unless he surpasses himself by a big stage, how can this happen.
However, beyond oneself by a big stage, it is at least a super powerhouse at the peak of the omega level, and even, a legendary existence above......
Startled by the thoughts in his heart, TÊo quickly gathered his mind and set his eyes on Senjuro opposite, expecting his answer.
"Hmm...... So that's the case, so does the alliance know about the situation here? Without replying to the other party's question, Senjuro asked with some confusion.
It stands to reason that when it comes to an omega-level ghostly monster, how could the alliance let it exist.
"Yes." Teo replied, as if he saw Chijuro's doubts, and explained, "Actually, it's not just the 'Dark Zone', there are Omega-level terrifying and ghostly monsters in the core areas of all semi-secluded areas. â
"But recently, the concentration of dark energy in the dark zone has indeed increased, and there have been many 'cases of erosion' among adventurers in the tidal zone."
"I've reported this situation to the Alliance, but I don't know when a commissioner will come to investigate the matter."
Nodding his head to understand, Qianjurou pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, then Mr. Theo, tomorrow I will trouble you to take me to the high-risk area first." By the way, do you have a map of the Dark Zone here? â
"High-risk zone, I see. In the case of the map, there is, but the environment of the semi-secluded area will change with the change of the energy concentration of the secluded area, although it is updated every month, but the accuracy of the map can only be used as a reference for the general direction. And I only have a map here that marks the first half of the high-risk zone. The concentration of dark energy in the second half of the high-risk zone is already ridiculously high, and the surface terrain changes almost daily, making it difficult to record markings. â
"That's already good, could you please give me a map, Mr. Theo?"
"Absolutely! I won't give it to ordinary people, but with Ms. Mosca's connections, Mr. Purgatory's business is my business, and as long as it doesn't violate my principles, I'll do my best to meet your request. â
"Thank you so much."
Chewing his head in thanks, Qianjurou smiled: "After this time, I will trouble you to take care of it." â
"Haha, it should, it should. By the way, Mr. Purgatory is tired of traveling and should be tired, I will take you to the guest room to rest, I already have someone to prepare the materials that need to be prepared, Mr. Purgatory has a good rest, and we can set off directly tomorrow. â
(Ahem, readers, grandfathers, I haven't written a chapter for a long time, so I'll write it after a long time today.) At the end of the Demon Slayer chapter, after entering the new world, due to the need to expand the world background, the plot in the early stage is relatively dull, and there is no climax. But now that the introduction has been almost introduced, next, the pace of the plot will be accelerated, please look forward to it all readers~Love your author bacteria~)
