Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

On the road.

The chameleon-like imposter led the way, with Chen Xi and Yang Wei following side by side.

Looking at the chameleon-like fake human who kept glancing back, Chen Xi said coldly:

"What are you looking at?"

"Are you expecting us to fall off here?!"

"without!"

"What are you saying, boss?!"

"How could this dragon boat, which is a soft solid, fall down? I was just using a tactical turn around!"

Under Chen Xi's firm and brutal teaching, the chameleon-like fake man consciously changed his address to "boss".

Chen Xi sneered inwardly upon seeing this.

This guy really knows that you can't stand on the Jelly Sea if you have a dragon-related forbidden item.

Although the chameleon imposter had doubts about being knocked unconscious, he was pretty sure that Chen Xi had taken the Dragon Summoning Flute.

Therefore, he didn't mention a word about the loss of the Dragon Summoning Flute, which seemed to indicate that he had planned to trap Chen Xi from the very beginning.

Unfortunately, Chen Xi had already gone down there, so naturally he wouldn't fall for it.

Sometimes it really comes down to luck. If the chameleon imposter had been identified from the start, we would have been tricked by this trick.

And so the three of them traveled for a day and a night.

Although this route was different from the direction of Paradise Lost in her mind, Chen Xi didn't care.

It's not bad at all.

Even if Chen Xi were to head towards Paradise Lost, he would need to reach a certain level of strength before entering.

Since so many secrets point to this safe zone, it must be something extraordinary.

Sufficient preparations must be made.

"Um?"

"That is..."

Chen Xi stopped and looked at the area in front of him, which resembled a black mist, muttering to himself.

He remembered Lu Xitong saying that there was no concept of day and night inside the Black Tower.

It's always in a "bright" state, like a room with the lights on after the curtains are drawn.

"That one ahead should be the 'Great Dark Heaven,' a regional area with a very large scope, encompassing both the Doom Zone and the Safe Zone."

"And that special safe zone that can be upgraded is located in the Dark Sky, along the direction of Longyang."

"It was very dark inside, and the visibility was very poor, which led to the creation of something rather unique."

"Chimpanzees."

"This gorilla can light a lamp and illuminate your way in the dark, so it's called the gorilla that lights a lamp."

"The behavior of gorillas lighting lamps only occurs in the Great Darkness. We need to rely on this to find that special safe zone."

So this is the Great Dark Heaven...

Chen Xi had heard Lu Xitong mention it, and today was the first time she had met him.

They traveled in silence as the three entered the Great Dark World.

As soon as Chen Xi entered, he sensed the difference between this place and the black mist.

Although the black mist is black, its darkness is a progressive process, and before reaching the Black Tower, the darkness can be seen through.

But not here. The black here, though not pure black, is completely impenetrable.

The air here is impenetrable, not just visually, but also in terms of sound.

Upon entering, Chen Xi was surprised to find that the distance he could see and the range he could hear were exactly the same!

"Yang Wei, where can you see?"

"Probably that rock up ahead?" Yang Wei pointed ahead and replied without much thought.

Over by the stone...

At such a close distance, Chen Xi could tell at a glance that the stone was about 50 meters away from the two of them.

As for his words...

You can roughly see the oddly shaped tree behind the rock, and the distance between the two is exactly half.

In other words, Chen Xi's sensory perception range, including his eyesight and hearing, is limited to 100 meters.

For a superhuman who has progressed 100% in Stage II, this visual distance, while not enough to be considered "deaf and mute," is equivalent to 800 degrees of myopia.

People can't distinguish between humans and animals beyond one meter!

Just then.

"Boss!"

Suddenly, Yang Wei raised his hand and pointed to a spot not far away.

A figure is slowly disappearing.

Whoosh!

Almost simultaneously, Chen Xi rushed forward.

With his current physical abilities, he could cover that distance in less than a second.

The Chameleon Pseudo-Man's ability is to change its own color according to the surrounding colors, making it blend in.

The Dark Sky was the perfect place for him to escape, so how could Chen Xi not pay attention to it?

Therefore, Chen Xi acted the moment Yang Wei spoke.

"Smack."

He grabbed the other person's arm.

"Hmm? This feel..." Chen Xi's pupils flickered slightly, a hint of doubt flashing across his face.

"Boss!"

Yang Wei quickly followed, after all, it was less than 50 meters away.

But what we saw was not a chameleon-like fake making excuses and begging for mercy, but a mere shell.

A hollowed-out human dragon skin.

The back depicts a human figure, while the front shows the shape of a lizard.

"He got away."

"I didn't expect that his Stage II abilities would include such a method as escaping like a cicada shedding its shell."

"He never had the chance to use it before, so he never did. Now the environment is just right."

"So what do we do now?"

"Should we go out, or stay here and continue looking for that gorilla?"

Yang Wei often seeks advice from Chen Xi.

Chen Xi is positioned in three directions, so it's impossible for him to be trapped here.

As for the chameleon fake man.

Each time the Dragon Summoning Flute is blown, even the progress of an Adaptor will decrease. Therefore, the Chameleon Pseudo-human's strength is at Tier II with 0% progress, which is even worse than Yang Wei's.

He poses no threat, but he can navigate.

"It's okay, I can still find that so-called gorilla."

After Chen Xi finished speaking, he took out a water-shaped figurine.

Then pour the liquid inside onto the ground.

The water, when it falls to the ground, doesn't stagnate but flows in one direction.

"Lu Xitong mentioned the matter of the gorilla lighting the lamp to me."

"To find this so-called gorilla, you first need to find the slope."

"The exact location of the gorillas is not fixed, but you can find them by following the gentlest slope."

"Boss is brilliant!" Yang Wei nodded mindlessly.

After that, Chen Xi began to repeat the operation. Although he kept going along the slope with a low gradient, the difference in slope was not obvious, basically only about 1 degree.

So even if you change directions many times, you won't get very deep into the territory.

Fortunately, Chen Xishui had plenty of water, and with the spirit of the Foolish Old Man Who Moved Mountains, he continued walking for a week.

I saw that so-called gorilla.

And you know what? It really was a gorilla, about two meters tall, with red hair, wearing sunglasses, and a hairstyle that looked like it had used a whole bottle of hairspray to make it look like it was wearing sky-high heels.

He was carrying a lantern that had been extinguished, inside which was a white candle.

They are walking forward step by step, at a very slow pace, comparable to an old woman with a hunched back.

Chen Xi didn't understand why someone would wear sunglasses in such a dark place, but she respected it!

"Road sign!"

Yang Wei pointed at the gorilla and said excitedly.

This was the first unfamiliar name he saw after being resurrected in the Black Tower.

"A road sign...looks like I've found the right place."

Chen Xi confirmed, and then prepared to walk over, but Yang Wei grabbed her arm:

"Boss, why don't you test this gorilla's attack potential with the figurine first?"

"This isn't like your cautious style."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xi gave Yang Wei a meaningful look:

"No need, because your eyes have already given me the answer."

"Yang Wei, I underestimated your abilities in the past..."

"You have no idea how special your extraordinary characteristics are."

"Your 'truth' can only be described as 'eye-opening'!"
