Chapter 376 Blackening
"There is such a thing as darkness... Could there be a master talking about it?"

"Little girl, I'm going to talk to you about this."

"Say what?"

"Tell me a story about my elder brother."

"Your brother?"

"That's right, I also hang out with others, but my boss is more powerful."

No sooner had the thought entered his mind than the will of darkness began to touch him.

Xu Le was slightly taken aback.

Is this... the warning Ye Fury gave him?

Is it to prevent him and ordinary people like Bai Jing from talking too much about the power of darkness?
No, the power of darkness should be spread out, so that as the source of darkness, Night Fury can be more powerful.

"Doesn't make sense?"

Just when Xu Le was wondering, the power of darkness continuously emerged from his body.

The intensity of this dark power can be described as substantive.

The dark mist completely enveloped him, and at this time Xu Le...

The black mist is silent and full of majesty, like a king sitting on the throne of darkness and supported by darkness.

Xu Le's stunned expression at this time, in Bai Jing's eyes, is cold and playful.

Looking at Xu Le who was surrounded by black mist and surrounded by darkness, Bai Jing felt a sense of admiration for no reason.

"The Lord of Darkness..."

"Do not……"

Xu Le wanted to explain what happened to him just now, it wasn't the effect of the show he created at all, it was all his brother's fault!

But looking at the admiration in Bai Jing's eyes, he suddenly felt that this seemed pretty good.

"Brother, what do you mean..."

Bai Jing didn't understand the confusion in Xu Le's heart at this time, she had already confirmed a fact.

Even if Xu Le is not the Lord of Darkness, he has a great relationship with the Lord of Darkness.

"So if you want to control the power of darkness, you must get the approval of the Lord of Darkness?
I probably know what you're trying to do, evil warlock. "

Xu Le: ...

I don't even know what I'm going to do, and you know?
Xu Le was very puzzled, but he still smiled calmly.

"Oh? Then tell me, what do I want to do?"

"You want to spread, take a walk, I have already guessed your mind, although you did not impose on me, but all kinds of guidance have always brought me to the position you want."

The corners of Xu Le's mouth twitched. He knew very well that every woman is very good at making up brains.

And they have no doubts about the content of their brains.

So Xu Le is not going to continue to explain.

"Then... what are you going to do to gain the approval of the Lord of Darkness?"

"That depends on what you want me to do."

"You are too weak, let's start by becoming stronger."

"How to use dark particles?"

"Haven't you been approved by the Lord of Darkness yet? So, don't worry..."

"understood."

After the conversation, although Bai Jing felt coerced by Xu Le, she got an affirmative answer and felt more at ease.

At least she didn't go down the wrong path and didn't lose herself.

The next thing is to get the approval of Darkness, or... Xu Le's approval.

"Shall I become stronger?"

Bai Jing clenched her fist.

……

The development tasks are proceeding step by step.

During this process, Xu Le learned a lot of basic knowledge of mercenaries, strange types, rules of area alternation, and so on.

Although there is a gap between his level of strength and other members of the mercenary group, in terms of basic knowledge, he is not ahead.

The fact that three people must have my teacher has been confirmed, and Xu Le patiently studied these things.

Learn more about the weird species, and study the birth of the fruit.

For the rest of the team, with the power increase of the lightning fruit, the task progress is undoubtedly much faster.

Especially Chang Fengle, he has made rapid progress, and he has advanced to master the power of Thunderbolt.

It's only been a few days.

Of course, the ability of lightning amplification is much simpler than elementalization, so it's nothing special.

Compared with the large army, the situation on Bai Jing's side is a bit erratic.

Sometimes she appears and sometimes disappears.

The whole person became mysterious, and everyone in the team felt strange.

The former sunshine, enthusiasm, and generous Bai Jing disappeared.

Bai Jing at this time, in just two weeks, her every aspect has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The first is character.

Now Bai Jing became taciturn. Unless it was an important task, she basically didn't speak, and she stopped chatting with those mercenaries.

Then there was a change in her makeup.

Originally, Bai Jing could only put on some light makeup, she looked like a normal sunny girl.

But now she is different.

There are many embellishments on the makeup, first of all, there are more eye shadows.

Originally, Bai Jing didn't have eyeshadow at all, but now she has it, and Xu Le doesn't know where she got it, maybe it's always in her bag?Then take it out at this time?
Then there is the short hair that has been cut before, and has undergone some trimming at this time.

The whole person looks very cold, making people feel that she is difficult to get along with.

In fact, this is also the appearance that Bai Jing deliberately created.

She didn't want other people to know too much about herself, just let their impression stay in the past.

As for Bai Jing's current strength, it has become unpredictable.

She often ran out to kill Weird solo.

This is a very risky move, but in this case, no one can stop her.

Days passed by, and when the task time was about a month, the team finally encountered a situation.

They found the body of another team member.

Bai Jing stared at the corpse in front of her with an unfathomable expression.

When the other mercenaries saw the corpse, they immediately made some analysis.

"Their planned route shouldn't be here. Why did the corpse appear in this place?"

"Could it be a grotesque or a drag of a beast?"

"Have you been attacked by anything?"

Bai Jing touched the corpse with her hand, based on her inference and the condition of the corpse.

The time of death should be within 2-3 days, that is to say, they have been attacked a few days ago.

"Their bodies showed no signs of bites, they looked as if they were suffocated to death, I don't know what kind of ability it is."

"asphyxia?"

"Suffocated, didn't eat the corpse, and dragged the corpse for a certain distance. This weird behavior is a bit special."

Bai Jing rubbed her chin, which was somewhat like Xu Le.

She suddenly realized this when she was thinking, and then quickly put her hand down.

He turned to look at Xu Le, wanting to see if that guy looked at him.

But when he looked over, he realized that Xu Le had been teasing his cat all the time, and had no intention of paying attention to her at all.

"Hmph, playing with things and losing one's mind."

When Bai Jing checked the body, she cremated the body together with others.

If the corpse is placed outside, if the conditions for spawning monsters are met, it will become a living corpse.

They don't want to kill their former teammates.

"Is he the only one?"

"Yes, just one."

Bai Jing nodded. The deceased was a member of the 9-member team and an old player.

The 9-person team was very reliable in doing things and tasks, but unexpectedly they overturned here.

"From now on, all vigilant and moving forward to see what other discoveries are made."

"Yes."

The team marched again and explored for another half a day. At 2-3 pm, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

The sky became a little darker.

"Is it cloudy? Is it going to rain?"

"It doesn't feel like it."

At this time, not only these mercenaries, but even Xu Le himself felt something strange.

"Water vapor."

"Ah? What did the elder brother say? I didn't hear clearly just now." Chang Fengle asked quickly.

He knew very well that as long as Xu Le opened his mouth, it must be important information.

"I said, there is a lot of water vapor here."

"Water vapor? Is it fog?"

"It's a bit similar, but it's not something that appears normally. There should be someone who can control the water vapor, or something weird."

Chang Fengle nodded.

"So that's it, oh, I have to tell Sister Bai quickly!"

After getting Xu Le's information, Chang Fengle hurried to Bai Jing's place, acted as a microphone, and told Bai Jing about Xu Le's discovery about water vapor.

"Isn't it fog, but water vapor?"

Bai Jing waved the air a few times with her hand, and indeed she could see some fine droplets of water.

This concentration is much higher than that of fog.

"Water vapor, suffocation..."

Bai Jing suddenly remembered the mercenary who died before.

He was suffocated.

"Is it possible that if there is a lot of water vapor around, it will become more and more difficult for us to breathe, and after a certain level, we will suffocate?"

Bai Jing looked at Chang Fengle, but Chang Fengle didn't understand this.

"Uh, I don't understand what Sister Bai said at all, how about I help you ask elder brother?"

"Forget it, don't ask him, everyone, we may be in danger now, and this water vapor may be the cause of the suffocation.

So... back off. "

"clear."

When it came to reminders about their own lives, these people responded directly and honestly.

They didn't even intend to argue with Bai Jing.

"Then, let's go quickly."

"Together."

The team retreated slowly, proceeding in an orderly manner.

But after about 10 minutes, everyone felt something was wrong.

The surrounding water vapor showed no signs of dissipating, but instead became thicker.

At this time, their line of sight has already been affected to some extent, and their visibility has dropped from a few hundred meters before to about 100 meters.

Everyone's clothes have been soaked, the men are better, and the women are more transparent.

There are 3 women in the team, including Bai Jing, all of whom don't look very good-looking.

But no one paid attention to this except Xu Le.

They have bigger problems.

breathe!

There was a lot of water vapor in the air, and it became difficult for them to breathe.

Even if warriors can hold their breath for a long time, they cannot withstand such an environment.

"Xiaobai? What should I do now? If this continues, I will really suffocate to death."

Yongbing are not afraid to face the enemy, but they are afraid to face the unknown.

Now they haven't even seen the face of the enemy, and they have already fallen into a situation where they may be wiped out. This is unacceptable to everyone.

"Yes, Xiaobai, hurry up and think of a way."

"What's the noise? If there was a way, I would have said it."

Bai Jing's head hurts, and their team has no warlocks, except Xu Le.

The martial artist's ability to deal with this special situation is really incomparable to that of the warlock.

Not only those mercenaries, even she herself can't help it.

Right now... it seems that only one person can break the situation.

"Ding Ke, what should we do now?"

Meow? ~
Bai Jing ignored Ding Ke's dissatisfaction, stared at Xu Le closely, and waited for Xu Le's answer.

"You want to save this team?"

Xu Le's question made Bai Jing feel cold.

"Has the situation gotten so bad... to protect the team?"

"It was really bad because even I didn't see what the weirdness of the shot was, or even if it was weird.

Is the situation here a natural disaster, or is something really weird at work. "

Hearing what Xu Le said, Bai Jing's face became even uglier.

"Will you abandon us?"

"Is it too heavy to give up this rhetoric?"

Bai Jing shook her head slightly:

"I know you must have a way to escape, even if you are in danger, you will not die, so you can be so unscrupulous in the wild.

You can go out at night, swim in dangerous lakes, kill a level 4 ancient god, and plant a tree.

But these are different for us, we are mercenaries, this is our job, pay back the money with our lives. "

Seeing Bai Jing's excited look, Xu Le was a little puzzled:
"You tell me this, what exactly do you want to express?"

"I want to express... I just don't want them to die."

Xu Le looked at Bai Jing, who had turned to "blacken" in front of him, and suddenly laughed.

The previous "blackening" of this woman.

In addition to really being in contact with the power of darkness, more... In fact, it is just a disguise to hide his mastery of darkness.

In times of real crisis, she would still stand up, speak for these mercenaries, and still think about the safety of these mercenaries.

She still hasn't changed, she's still the same guide as before.

This performance...is pretty good.

"At times like this, you still can't help but think about other people. This doesn't seem to fit your definition of darkness. Shouldn't the darkness in your eyes be associated with evil?"

"I just, I just feel like there's no point in dying like this."

"Any death is meaningless. To die is to die."

Bai Jing didn't want to discuss the definition of death with Xu Le, she just wanted to take these people out alive.

"I'm sorry, please help me." Bai Jing suddenly lowered her head.

Before that, whether Bai Jing asked for power or threatened to blacken her for her own growth, she never bowed her head to Xu Le.

But in the face of real death, she finally chose to give in.

"I didn't say to give them up, let them gather some firewood and prepare to light a fire."

"The flame dispelled? Wouldn't it cause more water vapor to be released, and then suffocate myself?"

"Of course not, this is the flame that determines your fate."
