On the Throne: The King of Black and White

Deep in the forest in the deserted area, hundreds of strange beasts were frantically besieging a young man.

Their whole bodies were wrapped with powerful flame gauze, and even the claw blades of some two alien beasts were still flowing with alienated luster.

The alien beasts showed no reservations, activated all the amplifications, and attacked each other with full fury.

And that young male.

He was holding a pitch black slender straight knife, and there was no aura of power about him.

Relying only on the purest physical strength, he wielded his blade and fought with the angry beasts.

This is a completely unfair matchup.

But the strange thing is that the one who has the upper hand is the human who didn't use any energy.

Clang! puff! puff……

The long black knife passed by, and the terrifying power crushed the power entanglement of a certain C-level beast.

The blade cut through the flesh, bringing up bright red blood, and the figures of the strange beasts fell one after another.

Lin Xiao waved the black blade and moved freely among the beasts.

He carefully chopped and stabbed every blow, feeling the feel of the light knife tearing apart the strange beasts, and kept summarizing it in his mind.

[One-handed sword-lv1: experience value +5]

[One-handed sword-lv1: experience value +6]

[One-handed sword-lv1: experience value +6]

……

Half an hour later.

The ground was stained with blood, and all the alien beasts fell under the slender black knife.

Lin Xiao shook off the scarlet stain on the black knife and nodded with satisfaction.

This group of strange beasts enjoyed the guzheng playing mixed with hypnosis and illusion, and received his painting and sketching services.

Now, it counts as a performance fee for him.

Turning around, Lin Xiao saw two unexpected figures.

It's Le Suxin and Captain Lei Ming.

"Why are you here?"

The location of these two people's activities is generally different from Lin Xiao's location.

"I'm tired from the alienation practice, come here to relax..." The silver-haired female hunter looked at the slender black knife in Lin Xiao's hand, raised her eyebrows and asked:

"Young man, are you starting to pursue frequency like me now?"

"...I just want to practice more weapons."

Le Su put his hand on his chin, nodded and said:

"I feel like your one-handed sword skills are pretty good, and your proficiency is comparable to some hunters' main weapons."

"After all, the techniques are interoperable..." Lin Xiao smiled softly and put the black knife into his body.

Among the weapons he has brushed, swords account for the largest proportion.

Although the one-handed sword is currently only level 1, its actual combat ability is already comparable to level 2 skills.

"Captain Lei Ming..." Lin Xiao looked at the man with evasive eyes and asked:

"Are you looking for me for something?"

Lei Ming crossed his arms and was silent for a while.

Immediately, he turned away and said, "Nothing!"

"I'm bored, come here and see how you use Tiansuo Zangetsu!"

"...What the hell?" Lin Xiao's mouth twitched.

He probably knew what the other party wanted to do.

The Thunder Team has only the last stop left before this mission location, the Chilly Lake.

If nothing unexpected happens, we will arrive tomorrow afternoon, and... we will complete the task the day after tomorrow at the latest.

This person was probably struggling with whether to leave the deserted area directly or go to the Valley of Darkness with Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao felt that he obviously wanted to go, but because of his face, he did not dare to admit his thoughts.

...Is this kind of awkward personality common among dead houses?

Lin Xiao didn't understand, but he still gave him the steps thoughtfully:

"I heard that the ghosts are very dense this year, and the Pink Sugar and Explosion Teams are a little busy."

"Captain Thunder, do you want to go over and help?"

"Really?" Lei Ming turned his head, his face glowing.

"Well...then there's nothing we can do. As fellow hunters, when others are in trouble, of course we need to help."

Captain Thunder nodded, seeming to have convinced himself.

"Okay! Ichigo, I'll go with you then!"

The man shook his fist in the air and grinned:

"That pink-haired fat lady Bai Mengmei must be grateful to us! Hahaha!"

……

"..." Lin Xiao's face was expressionless, his eyes subtly staring at Lei Ming's leaving figure.

"Young man..." Shuangjian Le Suxin patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder and said lightly:

"You have to get used to it. Captain can be a bit arrogant sometimes."

"...What is tsundere?" Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment.

"How can I explain it to you..." Le Suxin pondered for a moment and said:

"In the short movies, those people who say no but are very honest are called tsundere!"

Lin Xiao: "...!??"

Lin Xiao felt even more unable to understand this vocabulary.

……

the next day.

boom! boom! boom…

Under the path opened by the black flame beam, the Thunder Team arrived at the Cold Lake.

This is a medium-sized lake, and the light blue lake water seems to contain some kind of cold energy particles.

The entire lake was exuding cold air, with curls of white smoke floating above it.

"There may be B-level exotic beasts hidden in this lake, which is not suitable for you to train at all."

Captain Lei Ming crawled up a dark purple electric snake in his hand and said solemnly:

"This time, you just need to salvage the giant blue pearl..."

Boom!

A violent thunderstorm broke out from Lei Ming and poured into the light blue lake.

Just like an electric fish.

The deep purple thunder tongue spreads along the lake water to the entire lake.

Thunderbolt, thunderbolt…

The whole lake of cold air was sizzling, and the surface of the lake began to surge.

Captain Lei Ming did not hold back this time and used all his strength for the first time in a long time.

Thousands of aquatic beasts were stunned by the thunderstorm shock of the B-level hunter, and floated up with their bellies turned.

Lei Ming picked up the purple battle ax and said to everyone:

"I'll clear the way with Lin Xiao, you guys follow."

Amidst the splashing sound of entering the water, the Thunder Team all dived into the cold lake.

In this icy lake, Lin Xiao looked at the underwater world without any strangeness.

The depth is more than a hundred meters, and the giant blue pearl is among the ice crystal clams hidden at the bottom of the lake.

The number of salvage required for the mission...20.

Lin Xiao did not go looking for ice crystal clams. His mission was to find those strange beasts that had not been stunned by Captain Thunder.

Spear ghost fish, giant spider crab, ice-cold octopus...

There are B-level ones, and there are also some C-level high-risk ones that have slipped through the cracks.

Under the water, they are an obstacle to the Thunder Team's mission.

The black knife appeared in Lin Xiao's hand, and the body passed by, and the strange beasts were cut into pieces one by one.

……

Giant blue pearls are not that easy to find.

Those ice crystal clams are very gentle and have no offensive capabilities.

But the problem is, they may be lurking deep beneath the lake bottom.

Moreover, the shells on the outside are all static power crystals, without any energy fluctuations, and the hunters cannot detect them at all.

You cannot use power to blast it out.

Because these ice crystal clams are harmless renewable resources to the Hunter Association.

In order not to harm them, the Thunder Team could only explore and dig carefully.

night.

puff!puff!puff……

The soaked Thunder Team came to the shore and breathed in the fresh air.

"Land!" Silver Shield Jiang Jing raised her hands in the air and shouted with joy.

"You're so brave!" A Bin, the angry hammer, was so moved that he fell to the ground.

"These damn things are so hard to find..."

Butcher Sun Ke held the blue pearl about ten centimeters in size in his hand and sighed:

"Fortunately, Lin Xiao is very good at energy crystallization, otherwise, it would probably take an extra day."

Under water, Lin Xiao used static crystals to condense a number of digging tools for his teammates to use.

He himself also controlled the giant crystal arm and dug frantically at the bottom of the lake, and finally managed to collect 20 giant blue pearls today.

"Captain..." Lin Xiao looked at Captain Lei Ming and asked:

"Would you like to rest or contact the Hunter Association?"

"It's too late..." Lei Ming rubbed his wet hair and said helplessly:

"Go back to the chariot and stay one night, then leave tomorrow morning..."

……

Use power to remove moisture from clothes.

Lin Xiao lay on the crystal chair, took out his mobile phone, and looked at the group.

Ling Xue just sent several messages——

[We flew into the sky and saw the lake from a distance! 】

[It is on the southeast side of the Valley of Darkness. We entered from the west entrance, and the direction is completely opposite! 】

[Why did Bai Shan and the others run over there? 】

【Snow Girl Question Mark.ipg】

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he remembered...

The Iron Team that Bai Shan belonged to went from the direction of the creeping grass forbidden bush that he had cut.

As for Captain Explosive Flame and Captain Pink Sugar, they probably thought it was troublesome to weed, so they went in another direction.

Therefore, the entrance of the Iron Team is completely different from that of Qiangwei's two teams.

No wonder they haven't met each other for so long...

Lin Xiao shook his head and typed:

[Have you seen Bai Shan and the others? 】

[Not yet, but...I saw a chariot from the sky at noon]

[It should be theirs, the hunters are not here, they are probably going to kill the ghosts]

[Tomorrow, our two teams should be able to get there]

That's quite a coincidence, he will go there tomorrow too...

I glanced at the experience value in the panel, gathered energy -lv2 (92.5%), static energy -lv2 (64.8%)...

Lin Xiao chuckled and typed:

[OK, see you all tomorrow]

【? ? ? 】

Miss Lingxue sent a question mark.
