Chapter 5: A Lantern That Can Overcome All Obstacles

Chapter 5: A Lantern That Can Overcome All Obstacles
"Pfft!"

When German pulled the bloody meat saw out of the wolf's body, he also took away the wolf's last breath.

The meat saw was covered with sticky blood and flowed on German's right wrist, making it look like he was wearing a dark red glove.

He killed the demon wolf and absorbed its resentment, but it seemed that the individual demon wolf was not strong enough and its resentment did not bring any harm to German.

German shook his head. Although it was a pity that he did not receive the "Gift of Resentment", at least he found out from the experiment that the musket and the meat saw were very useful.

He paused, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly felt something was wrong and looked around.

All I saw were pairs of scarlet eyes lighting up in the darkness all around, so densely packed that it was creepy.

A group of ferocious and hungry demon wolves.

At this moment, the positions of hunter and prey seemed to have reversed.

"Crack!"

Germann swung the handle of the meat saw hard, and the blade and the handle separated.

The entire meat saw became longer, and the range of its impact naturally expanded.

It's also time to try out the meat saw's transformation cut.

The demon wolves pounced on him one after another.

While using the flow technique, he switched the defense created by the energy wrapped around his body between firm (whole body) and hard (local) to be on the safe side.

On the other hand, he used Zhou's technique to cover the meat saw with Qi to increase its hardness.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

German began a frenzied killing spree, using both muskets and meat saws. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and the whole scene was extremely bloody.

However, there were too many demon wolves, and the sharp fangs of one of them still bit Germann's arm, which he was unable to defend with his Qi in time.

It tore off a small piece of flesh, causing Germann to bleed profusely.

However, instead of retreating, German chased after him, the severe pain making him more focused.

He swung his knife twice and chopped the wolf that had bitten him to the ground.

With the help of his musket, meat saw and the terrain obstacles of the dense forest, Germann chopped down the magic wolves one by one.

The remaining few demon wolves howled in fear, turned their bodies, and hid in the bushes, fleeing far away from the monster.

After confirming that there were no demon wolves around, German lowered his meat saw and musket, let out a long breath, and began to regulate his breathing.

It turned out that I shouldn't have fought so many demon wolves at once.

He is still adapting to this body and the ability to fight with telekinesis, and is gradually mastering some tricks. He is still a novice in combat.

His 10 points of vitality were just enough for him to survive the siege of wolves.

In addition, in order to test his Nen ability in all aspects, he used excess firepower in almost every attack, which also greatly consumed his 12 points of stamina.

For him now, using all his Nen abilities without restraint is still quite a burden.

However, even though he was covered in blood, he was actually hardly injured. The blood that was soaked on his body was basically the blood of the demon wolves.

He killed more than twenty demon wolves and finally got some rewards.

The resentment of the demon wolves gathered, allowing German to improve 1 "attribute" and forcibly increase "spiritual pressure" by 1 point.

Without hesitation, Germann increased his vitality by 1 point.

"Vigorous constitution: 11"

"Endurance: 12"

"Vision Pressure: 2"

Well... Germain has already fully experienced the combat performance of the meat saw and the musket, and now it is the turn of the lantern.

A purple light lit up, and a lantern suddenly appeared at Germain's feet.

Four ugly messenger ghosts were clinging to the lantern, and the words "Cooling down countdown 0:00" were displayed on the lantern. German currently only had two lanterns, one of which he could carry around freely, and the other was fixed in a certain location.

It was a lantern that had existed from the beginning and could not be recovered by Germain.

The place where it is located is called "Dark Continent".

He couldn't help but shift his gaze away from the continent in the center of Lake Mobius and look towards the vast, boundless, and dangerous dark continent.

Human beings today only live in a corner of the world, but the Dark Continent is actually the real world.

Germain wanted to go there and take a look.

It is not only to see what the Dark Continent looks like in the unfinished world view of Hunter x Hunter, but also to see where the limits of oneself as a human being are.

If there is no such goal and everyone still follows the rules as in the original world, then this journey will be meaningless.

However, the Dark Continent is extremely dangerous, so dangerous that there have been very few survivors throughout history, and even if someone survives, they will bring back terrible "disasters".

Even if you insist on going, you must first pass the "V5" of the world's five major countries, and then pass the "guide" and "gatekeeper" before you can arrive.

The original German, however, had the means to travel directly to and from the Dark Continent, bypassing V5, the guide and the gatekeeper.

However, when he saw that the teleportation location was the Dark Continent, he chose without hesitation to seal the lantern permanently and would never let anyone else know the lantern's abilities except himself.

German could understand the original self.

Most of the Dark Continent’s intelligence and travel methods are controlled by the V5 powers, and they want to monopolize all the benefits obtained from the Dark Continent.

Once the world knew about the lantern's teleportation ability, it would cause endless trouble. This was the original body's concern and choice.

But even so, the lantern did not let him go.

The Lantern siphoned out his soul and shredded it as the price of the teleportation ability.

The new soul now has the opportunity to take over the magpie's nest.

The current German has made a decision completely opposite to his original self.

He placed the lantern, which emitted a strange purple light, in the dense forest and reached out his hand to one of the white messenger ghosts.

The little devil let out an obvious scream of surprise, and rushed over, grabbing Germanman's little finger with his two skinny little hands, as if afraid that he would pull back.

The other three little ghosts wailed.

"Take me to the Dark Continent," German ordered.

The messenger imp holding his little finger nodded repeatedly.

"Om-"

After a dazzling flash, German opened his eyes and was miraculously transported to a wilderness by the lanterns in the dense forest.

It is night in the dense forest, but it is day here.

There were piles of weeds at my feet. From a distance, there was not a single tree. There were only low hills on both sides that looked like riverbeds.

Germain blinked.

Is this somewhere in the Dark Continent? It looks very ordinary, and not as dangerous as I imagined.

The lantern here was also glowing faintly, and clinging to the lantern base were also four little messenger ghosts, but it was unclear if they were the same four as before.

There was also a line of words displayed on the lantern - "Cooling Countdown 0:59", and the next moment it changed to "Cooling Countdown 0:58".

I see. It takes 1 minute before I can use the lantern again. During this time, I can't leave the Dark Continent?
German looked around for a while, wondering whether he should explore and not waste this precious opportunity, and then he noticed something unusual.

This abnormality made him pause before taking the first step forward.

Quiet……

It has been too quiet here since a while ago. Even though there is so much flowing air, it feels like a graveyard.
