The circle was difficult to master. Although it varied from person to person, most telekinesis users couldn't expand the range of the circle. Even releasing it was difficult.
Of the three remaining bodyguards, only the young man with the buzz cut knew how to use the circle.
Since they couldn't turn on the light source, he suggested using the circle to investigate their surroundings in the darkness.
This wasn't a whim, but he clearly felt that there was something watching him in the darkness, and it wasn't just one or two.
In fact, when he asked the question, he wondered if he was being too sensitive.
At least, before his teammates answered, he wasn't sure if his feeling was correct.
"I feel it too, and … there's a lot."
"Yes, but we've been here for a while. If there really is something here, it would have attacked us already, right?"
The other two bodyguards were telekinesis users and were more sensitive in this aspect. They could feel the many gazes coming from the darkness.
Their answers confirmed the soldier's suspicions. The chill that rose from his spine grew stronger and spread throughout his body in an instant.
Both Jim Carrey and Norman weren't telekinesis users, so they didn't feel anything strange. At this moment, when they heard the conversation between the three soldiers, they panicked even more.
In this pitch-black and extremely quiet environment, what kind of situation was the most terrifying?
You didn't know what was watching you in the darkness.
And when you knew something was watching you in the darkness, you couldn't feel the existence of that thing.
You couldn't hear it, and you couldn't see it.
However, something that could threaten your life was definitely around you.
Perhaps, that thing is looking at you, only a palm's distance away from each other.
But you didn't have the slightest awareness of it.
Jim Carrey and Norman didn't have the ability to protect themselves. If something happened, the outcome was self-evident.
The former could barely maintain his calm, but the latter could only hold on tightly to the glass container containing the vanilla. His emotions were on the verge of collapse.
Perhaps deep in his heart, he knew very well that this grand crossing operation would end in failure.
Such a large and luxurious team, so what if they got the vanilla? They were the only ones who survived, and there were only three people who could be considered combat power.
How could they cross the sea of trees that took the lives of hundreds of team members?
If they didn't cross the sea of trees, they wouldn't be able to return to the coastline. If they didn't return to the coastline, how could they return to the six continents?
"Failed, another failure. Is there really no way for humans to get hope …?"
Norman's fingertips that were pressed against the glass container turned white. The terrified and desperate expression on his face was something that no one in the darkness could see.
In the history of the crossing operation, all human countries in their heyday had put in all their efforts to challenge to the Darkness Continent, but all of them had failed..
This time, the Ferry Challenge had gathered the strongest teams from the five great countries, but they still failed. They failed when they were just a hair's breadth away from success.
Until now, the Darkness Continent document had been sealed in the Ferry Administration's database. Rows of cold numbers were recorded on it.
... this operation........................

.............. to........................ to.
................ to to. to.. to......

Only his hands that were tightly hugging the glass container still held a tiny bit of hope.
Norman was an old man.
It wasn't just his age. It also referred to the time he had been in contact with research related to the Darkness Continent.
As a researcher who wanted to rely on research to find out the true colors of the so-called 'hope' and 'calamity', he had always dreamed of being able to research 'hope' as he wished.
He knew how powerful a country was. Therefore, even though he knew the upper limit of the threat of calamity, he still believed that humans would be able to 'conquer' the Darkness Continent one day, just like how the six continents were doing now …
Humans should be at the top of the food chain, enjoying all the things that could bring them benefits.
But now, he realized that the thoughts he had hidden in his heart were too naive.
That was right. The Darkness Continent was Pandora's Box. Humans didn't even have the ability to open the box, let alone touch it.
"We're too insignificant here. We're too insignificant."
The corners of Norman's lips moved slightly as he mumbled to himself.
He, who was on the verge of breaking down, had no idea that another group of humans in the ancient maze city had not only obtained over 400 vanilla leaves here, but they had also plucked the matured Nitolomi from the swamp.
Just as Norman's thoughts were running wild, the three soldiers had a discussion as they slowly moved in. In the end, they decided to let the soldier with the buzz cut release the sphere to check out the surrounding environment.
Under the premise that there were magical beasts chasing after them, releasing the sphere in the darkness would easily expose their position.
However, in order to find a sense of security and to check out the source of the line of sight in the darkness, they still decided to use the sphere.
The soldier with the buzz cut focused and controlled the psychic power that covered the surface of his body. He imagined that he was blowing bubbles, blowing his psychic power out of the light membrane and expanding it in all directions.
It was indeed difficult to perfectly master such a technique that had extremely strict requirements on one's control.
The soldier with the buzz cut could use the sphere, but he needed the assistance of his imagination.
As a result, he was extremely weak in the process of using the sphere.
The sphere of light seeped through the darkness and slowly pushed outwards.
The light was invisible to Jim Carrey and Norman, but in the eyes of the other two soldiers with psychic power, it was like a light in the darkness, very conspicuous.
"How is it? Did you find anything? "
The soldier carrying Norman lowered his voice and asked nervously. In fact, he hoped that the soldier with the buzz cut could finish the exploration quickly and then put away the sphere to avoid being detected by the magical beasts chasing after them.
"Sundries, tables, cabinets, a lot of … jars."
The soldier with the buzz cut's facial features were tangled together, trying to distinguish the shape fed back by the sphere.
In just ten seconds of exploration, the sphere he released showed signs of collapsing.
The good news was that he did not find any kind of creature or a body similar to a human gold and silver ingot parasite for the time being.
But before they could rejoice, the three soldiers' bodies all shook.
When the round light membrane slowly passed diagonally in front of them, dozens of slightly narrowed eyes … just leaked some white light, floating in the air, staring at them.
“！！！！！”
.....
On the roof of a wall building in the ancient maze city.
Giles was pulled to the roof by Machi's psychic thread. After seeing Law and his party, he only said one sentence and then lost consciousness.
This suddenly made it difficult for Law to handle.
He still wanted to ask Giles for information, so he certainly could not wait for Giles to wake up naturally.
Old White's [The Fool's Means] could only summon the aura of the archangel by luck and let Giles recover instantly. Otherwise, it would take a long time.
Therefore, the only way to make Giles wake up immediately was … Fairy Burn Grass and lichens.
Today's stock of Fairy Burn Grass was pitifully small. As a life-saving prop, it was naturally impossible to use it on Giles.
