The Hell Bells twin-tailed snake used its bell-shaped organ as a medium to emit a bell that could infect killing intent, causing creatures that heard the sound to become bloodthirsty.
Its range of activity was in the swamp to the southeast.
According to the known records, the Ochima Alliance sent a team of 1,100 people to the swamp in order to find the longevity food, Nitolomi.
However, before the team could even step into the swamp, 99% of the members became the bait of the Hell Bells. In the end, only 11 people escaped the territory of the Hell Bells in a sorry state.
Law had seen the Hell Bells twin-tailed snake in the dream parasitic by the mirage ticks and personally experienced the horror of the Hell Bells.
Other than the similarity in appearance, there was no evidence to prove that the Hell Bells twin-tailed snake in the dream was the same one that destroyed the Ochima Alliance team.
Among the five known hopes of the east of the Darkness Continent, Law felt that the most important one to obtain was Nitolomi, which could increase one's lifespan.
Therefore, when he returned to the Darkness Continent this time, he didn't choose to land on the west of the Darkness Continent, which he was more familiar with. Instead, he set his sights on the east of the Darkness Continent.
He had experienced the spiritual baptism of the mirage ticks and had the information left behind by the pioneers. He felt that it wouldn't be difficult to obtain Nitolomi.
He actually had this thought for a long time.
At the beginning, he even thought about Melody.
The twin-tailed snake could infect its prey with killing intent through sound, which was in line with the characteristics of the release system. Melody's psychokinesis also belonged to the release system. She could play the flute and calm the listener's mind.
There seemed to be a mutual restraint between the two.
Therefore, Law had thought that Melody's ability might be the nemesis of the twin-tailed snake since a long time ago.
Unfortunately, Melody didn't have the heart to explore the Darkness Continent, so Law didn't extend an olive branch to her.
If Melody was with the team, this operation would probably be more successful.
No one in the team objected to Law's plan to obtain Nitolomi.
After all, the pursuit of longevity was a string that could easily move people's hearts.
Who wouldn't be willing to live longer?
Even if some people didn't have such thoughts before, after knowing the existence of Nitolomi, they would definitely not let go if they could obtain it.
If the team wanted to go to the swamp, they had to first pass through the dangerous sea of trees.
At the entrance of the forest, they encountered a supernatural creature like the ice silkworm. This made them think that the forest would be more dangerous and they were constantly on guard.
However, the team traveled through the forest peacefully for three days.
It wasn't that they didn't encounter any danger, but compared to the Ice Silkworm, the creatures they encountered during these three days were nothing. At best, they were just food to fill the gaps between their teeth.
None of the things they encountered along the way were worth their time. In addition, Dongba's radar was constantly running, so the team's progress was much smoother. There was no need to worry too much.
Such a peaceful exploration also made Nick, who had the worst mentality in the team, feel a lot more at ease.
The team's goal was very clear, so they didn't take the initiative to cause trouble. Their focus was on their journey.
Ten days later, the team passed through the sea of trees and entered the vast grassland.
The terrain of the grassland here was not flat. Looking from afar, it was uneven and slightly undulating, like a gentle sea wave.
The grass on the ground was growing quite well, reaching a height that exceeded the knees.
Looking from the edge of the grassland, there were no living creatures in the air or on the ground.
However, no one could be sure that there was no danger under the grass.
"Through this grassland, you can see the swamp where Nitolomi is." Law looked at the quiet grassland and said, "We have Norb's fourth-dimensional apartment, so we don't have to rush through the grassland."
Speaking of this, Law looked up at the sky.
The grassland with almost zero visibility under the feet was not suitable for a temporary camp.
If they rushed through the grassland, they would encounter the two-tailed snake in a tired state.
The original Ochima Alliance was easily wiped out by the two-tailed snake's bell because it was difficult to take care of both the front and the tail.
Law and the others had Norb, so they could enter the safe fourth-dimensional apartment to rest at any time and anywhere to ensure that they could meet potential threats at 100% state.
The team didn't stay too long and stepped directly into the grassland.
Dongba suggested, "Do you want to reduce the scope of the investigation to make the duration longer?"
Law shook his head decisively, "No, the scope of the investigation is very important. Even if the duration is shortened, the scope can't be reduced. If your Telekinesis consumption exceeds the red line, then take the lichen assigned to you directly."
Dongba hesitated, "Wouldn't it be too wasteful?"
Law glanced at him and said calmly, "In the team, you are the only one who doesn't have to think about saving the consumption of lichen. That's why I assigned you twice the amount."
"Understood."
Dongba was used to being given important tasks by Law, so he didn't say much.
The team moved forward steadily, not fast, but steady.
They marched during the day and rested in Norb's fourth-dimensional apartment at night.
Two days later, the team crossed the grassland and stood on a small grassy hill.
Looking up ahead, the muddy swamp came into view.
Golden haystack shaped low water grass could be seen everywhere, covering the swamp.
The muddy river was like the spreading roots of a tree, shuttling through countless haystack-shaped water grasses, like the fine veins on a leaf.
Seemingly small amounts of water floated on the soil, and the sun fell vertically, reflecting a little luster.
The swamp here didn't only have short water grasses. Small patches of forest made up of more than ten trees were scattered here and there.
"According to the Ferry Bureau's records, the witness saw the twintails on the tree, but it's hard to guarantee that the twintails won't move under the water grass," Kim said.
"It's okay, we can use a safe method to find the twintails and Nitolomi's location."
"What method?"
Five minutes later, the team arrived at Norb's largest fourth-dimensional apartment. Only the Black Cat stayed outside, accompanied by Nick's little fox psychic beast, but the Black Cat couldn't see the psychic beast.
It was something invisible.
This was Nick's psychic ability. On the basis of gaining the target's trust, he could conjure a little fox psychic beast that only he could see. It would always be by the target's side, unafraid of any harm.
The images seen by the little fox would be transmitted to Nick's right eye, and he could freely adjust his vision within a range of twenty meters.
Although the Black Cat wasn't unafraid of any harm like the little fox, he was very mobile and was a psychic beast, so he was most suitable to be the scout.
"I'm ready."
Nick stuffed a big handful of grass into his mouth and immediately looked up at the wall in the room.
On the side, everyone followed his gaze and looked at the wall.
Nick's psychic power floated in his right eye, turned into a beam of light and imprinted on the wall, projecting the little fox psychic beast's vision.
The Black Cat, the little fox, and Norb's fourth-dimensional apartment.
With the combination of several abilities, it could exert a zero-risk scouting effect.
"This reminds me of an underwater camera," Sa Ling said sincerely.
Her statement was immediately agreed by several people present.
After seeing Nick's vision projection, Law stuck the Black Cat's ears on the wall next to the image and said, "If you hear it, slap yourself."
In the projected image, the materialized Black Cat without ears subconsciously raised his hand to slap himself, but he quickly reacted and stopped abruptly.
The dark face showed anger in an instant, and he cursed a few times. However, the people in the fourth-dimensional apartment couldn't hear the Black Cat's voice at all, but they could probably tell that the Black Cat was cursing.
"The test is over, you can go into the swamp. Raise your right hand to show that you heard the order." Law smiled and let the Black Cat begin scouting.
