The Black Cat finally found Sheerah, but Luo Hejin could not go to see her immediately.
Kajen's military had taken several measures against the serial murders of unknown snakes, one of which was a weakened version of the [Curfew].
During sleeping hours, no one was allowed to walk around freely.
Moreover, the military would send out teams to patrol at night in shifts. If someone wanted to go to the bathroom, they would have to inform the patrolling soldiers, who would then take them to the bathroom.
Law's freedom of movement was restricted, so he could not go to see Sheerah immediately. He would have to wait until the day when he was assigned to work.
Although he could not contact Sheerah immediately, he could use the Black Cat as a messenger to inform Sheerah in advance so that she could be mentally prepared.
Thus, the Black Cat, which had just returned to Law's side, turned into smoke again and moved along the ground towards Sheerah's location.
In the dark of the night, the Black Cat's black smoke quietly passed through the sleeping people. No one, including the patrolling soldiers, noticed the Black Cat's presence.
Fifteen minutes later, the Black Cat came to Sheerah's side. As soon as it was within ten meters of Sheerah, she opened her eyes and glanced at the Black Cat with a sharp and vigilant gaze.
Obviously, she was only in a light sleep and was highly vigilant. After all, she was a woman traveling alone, and it was normal for her to be so vigilant because of the snake murders.
After discovering the Black Cat, Sheerah's first reaction was to associate the snake murders with the black smoke.
But soon, she dismissed this possibility because she did not sense any malice from the Black Cat. Therefore, when she discovered the Black Cat, she did not take any unusual defensive actions.
Even though she did not sense any malice, Sheerah was still highly vigilant. She quietly released her telekinesis and covered her body.
The Black Cat looked around to make sure that no one was watching them. Then, it turned into a cat under Sheerah's watchful gaze, but it was smaller than usual.
Sheerah recognized the Black Cat at once, and her eyes flashed with joy.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw the Black Cat raise its paw in front of its mouth.
Seeing this, Sheerah swallowed her words. She watched as the Black Cat crept up to her and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Black Cat rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Other than being summoned by Emissary Luo, what other reason could there be?"
Sheila smiled. She knew about the existence of the Black Cat, but she was not familiar with the Black Cat, so she did not respond.
"Tomorrow, Luo will go to the forest to look for you. King seems to have given you a very high evaluation, so Luo is willing to let you join the team. It depends on whether you are willing or not." Black Cat stated his intentions.
"Going to the real Darkness Continent?"
The light in Sheerah's eyes was enough to cover the stars in the night sky. She had learned from Jinn that B.W.'s destination wasn't the Darkness Continent, but an imaginary continent that had been deceived.
"Yes."
Black Cat sized Sheerah up and couldn't see how she had become powerful. He said, "Even if you are willing to join the team, you will definitely have to …"
"I am willing!"
Sheerah's unhesitant reply made Black Cat stop mid-sentence.
Black Cat looked at the excited Sheerah, and his cheeks trembled.
This fellow … was just as King had said. She was like-minded with Luo.
No one could tell that Sheerah had any fear of the Darkness Continent. There was only the fearless drive of a newborn calf that was seen in Luo.
They were the same type of people.
Black Cat thought silently. As he turned to leave, he said, "Even if you are willing to join, you might not be able to pass Luo's interview."
Sheerah suppressed the excitement in her heart and watched as the Black Cat turned into smoke and disappeared into the night.
The next morning, another 99 corpses were found.
It was like this for the next few days. Some rumors with the word "curse" started to spread among the crowd because other than a non-scientific phenomenon, there was no other reason to explain what had happened in the past few days.
Not to mention the open land where there was little grass, no one had even seen a snake in the forest that was felled during the day.
Then, where did the snakes that killed so many people every day come from?
Even if they turned the ground over, they couldn't find a single hole, not even a small one.
Some people started to be afraid. This was natural, because no one knew if they would be the next person to be bitten to death.
The army couldn't do anything about the underlying panic and the brewing of rumors. The patrols they set up at night covered all areas, but even so, they didn't find anything strange.
This was because every single one of them had died silently. There were no signs of struggle before they died. Under such circumstances, what could they possibly do?
If not for the fact that the wounds on the victims were real, they would even suspect that the thing that killed them wasn't a snake.
Luo Hejin, who was not involved in the Black Snake incident, had no interest in it. After the people started to work, they went into the forest to look for Sheerah.
Since three-quarters of the forest had been felled, fewer people were assigned to cut down the trees today.
Under Kajen's command, the manpower started to focus on building houses. They were going to process the felled wood and build houses.
At the same time, Sheerah was felling trees in the forest.
The people who boarded the ship were not divided by gender, but by ability.
Regardless of their gender, since they had landed on the New World, they had to contribute.
"Creak!"
With the last chop, the tree fell. The noise didn't affect the people nearby, who were already used to it.
"When will Luo Hejin come?"
Sheerah thought to herself as she looked at the fallen tree.
She couldn't wait to see Law … Now, she was a loyal fan of L. Hunter. As for the made-up D. Hunter, she had already thrown it away.
"Huh?"
The look in Sheerah's eyes changed slightly when she sensed a faint malice behind her. She picked up the axe and continued to chop off the extra branches on the trunk.
In her previous travels, she was already familiar with this kind of malice, so she was more sensitive.
Behind a tree, a man with a head of spinach hair peeped at Sheerah, who was shrouded in a thin layer of mist. Hesitation and struggle appeared in his eyes.
He was one of the 23 infected. His name was Kun En, and his current level was Lv48, which was quite high.
There were fewer people felling trees today, so there wouldn't be people everywhere. Then he saw Sheerah.
The experience points of a telekinetic was equivalent to at least a thousand ordinary people.
