The shadow of the eyeball was the sub-consciousness of the [Observer] on the World Tree that was projected onto Tofuri's body.
From the beginning to the end, Eyeball had been a bystander, quietly observing everything unfolding from Otofuri's perspective.
As long as it didn't reveal itself, even Ebon, who had lived for hundreds of years, wouldn't be able to detect its existence.
At this moment, it actually took the initiative to reveal itself.
Even though it didn't reveal its complete form, the leaked aura and vague outline had completely exposed its existence.
Compared to the fear and panic of the deep-sea humans when they saw the outline of the eyeball, Ebon was shocked.
He had been in the Darkness Continent for hundreds of years. In terms of vigilance and sharpness, he boasted that no one was stronger than him.
However, he actually didn't detect the existence of that unknown object.
One must know that when he landed on the coastline of the Ejin Continent, he had thoroughly checked to ensure that no [Calamity] followed him. What was this unknown object that suddenly appeared before him?
"Even the most perfect [Invisibility] can't hide the aura of its existence, but this unknown object …"
Don Furoshi suddenly pulled away and looked at the eyeball that was gradually revealing its form in the air with a serious expression.
"Could it be the Scavenger that I've never seen before?"
Although the eyeballs didn't show any hostility, nor did they show any signs of attack, Otofuri didn't let his guard down at all.
One of the most dangerous things on the Darkness Continent was the [Scavenger] that came and went without a trace.
Those Scavenger were the most unreasonable and terrifying existence. They didn't have any possibility of communication and would randomly "devour" living and non-living things along the way.
Ebon had encountered seven types of Scavenger, and they were similar to the eyeball in front of him. They didn't show any hostility, but they had the silent but most dangerous invasive ability.
Apart from the shock and lingering fear, Higashi felt even more fortunate.
This was the border of the Republic of Bartokia. It was less than half a day's journey from the Sky Arena and less than three days' journey from the Withered Mountain.
If it weren't for the spaceship being forced to land due to a sudden storm and being entangled by the group of deep-sea humans who were extremely vengeful, perhaps he would've already arrived at the Withered Mountain and brought this unknown object over.
At that time, if this unknown object was really a Scavenger, it might even harm Kim and the others.
Ebon stared at the eyeball vigilantly and didn't act rashly. However, he was secretly prepared to escape.
After the eyeball was exposed, he didn't pay any further attention to Ebon and the deep-sea humans around him.
In fact, being exposed wasn't his intention.
However, the [Scavenger] that he sensed in an instant caused him, who didn't have human emotions, to lose his [Stability] and reveal himself.
[Has the drawing board been opened?]
[Although it was only for a moment, why is it like this?]
[It shouldn't be like this]
[Only the region of the Darkness Continent can satisfy the conditions for the drawing board to open the entrance.]
[Not see …]
[Who's the effect of the Scavenger?
[Could it be …]
His eyes silently looked in the direction of the Ulubian Continent, and the male human with a huge shadow appeared in his consciousness.
The moment he revealed himself, he cast an observation shadow somewhere in the skies of the Ulubian Continent far away.
However, from the opening of a gap on the drawing board to the gap disappearing without a trace, it was too late when he realized it and projected the observation shadow.
He couldn't even observe the slightest bit of information.
Since it was too late to observe, the Scavenger decisively withdrew his [Attention] from the distance and turned to look at the deep-sea humans present, as well as Ebon, who was vigilant against him.
From Ebon's landing on the coastline of Ebon, destroying a team of deep-sea humans, taking a spaceship to the Withered Mountain but was forced to land due to a storm. In the end, he was entangled by the deep-sea humans. Throughout the whole process, the Scavenger's Scavenger had been there.
In his original plan, he wanted to use Tofuri's role as a [Parasite] to get close to Law, and then observe.
But plans couldn't keep up with changes.
The Scavenger's thoughts changed at this moment.
So, he spoke for the first time.
After so many years, he appeared again to communicate with humans.
"Ebon's Scavenger."
The voice wasn't clear enough and sounded neither male nor female.
When the Scavenger called his name, Ebon's eyes narrowed.
At this moment, he ruled out the possibility of the Scavenger being the Scavenger.
Because the Scavenger didn't communicate with humans.
The Scavenger's gaze fell on Ebon's body, and he said calmly, "I know you have a lot of questions now, but I need you to get rid of these deep-sea humans first."
Ebon was slightly startled and quickly calculated the gains and losses.
He wanted to figure out the origin and purpose of the Scavenger, plus he had to kill all the deep-sea humans around him.
Immediately, he didn't agree on the surface, but he responded to the Scavenger's words with actions.
He summoned the Scavenger and turned into a dragon to attack the surrounding deep-sea humans.
So far, he still didn't know how the deep-sea humans could accurately track him down. He only felt that this kind of entanglement was really troublesome.
Long-range attacks always allowed the user to be in a safer area when attacking. This was also the reason why Ebon chose to specialize in this aspect.
After all, in the harsh environment of the Darkness Continent, he would often encounter unreasonable things. Long-range attacks were one of the best weapons to use as a probing method.
Relying on the ability that he had honed for a long time, Ebon still didn't give the surrounding deep-sea humans a chance to get close to him.
In the end, this group of deep-sea humans didn't even manage to touch the corner of Ebon's clothes. They followed in the footsteps of their companions who died in Ebon's hands.
After eliminating this group of deep-sea humans, Ebon stood in a safe area and raised his head to look at the Scavenger. He asked, "Who exactly are you?"
The Scavenger didn't answer directly. Instead, he said, "As a human who has evolved from an abomination, your strength is no longer inferior to those humans who have removed their restrictions. Before I answer your question, you have to seal your vitality into your body and not let any of it leak out."
"You're talking about 'absolute', right? Without knowing your identity, why would I take the initiative to take the risk?"
Closing the fine pore was equivalent to taking the initiative to remove the weapon and armor.
How could Ebon agree so foolishly?
The Scavenger said, "If you don't seal your vitality, I won't be able to remove the things hidden in your body."
Actually, as long as the Scavenger was willing, he could remove the things on Ebon's body with just a thought.
However, he was an [Observer], so he would not interfere with anything that existed in the world.
Ebon frowned when he heard this. He backed off doubtfully and widened the distance between him and the Scavenger.
Seeing Ebon's cautious action, the Scavenger didn't have any reaction.
After widening the distance enough, Ebon stared at the Scavenger while closing the fine pore and sealing the aura into his body.
When he did this, a palm-sized orange starfish with eyes on its back suddenly slid down from his shoulder and landed on the grass.
Looking at the starfish that suddenly appeared, Ebon raised his brows.
