This made Long's eyes flash. This child... was only partially relieved, but deep down in his heart, he still hadn't given up.

"I haven't had any contact with Killua since we separated... I guess he's still traveling somewhere, or he's already returned home."

Xiaojie laughed.

“It still tastes familiar…”

Long ate a few bites and said, "It's delicious."

"Hahaha... Before I came, I told Aunt Carter that Mr. Long will be very happy after eating it." Xiao Jie smiled.

"So...what do you want to tell me?"

Long asked softly.

Hearing this, Xiaojie put down his lunch box.

Under Jin's gaze, he stood up and bowed vigorously to Long, "Thank you for your care all the time."

The reason he was able to survive was that Oboro took action first, and then Alluka. In that state at that time, if Oboro had not stopped him, his soul would have been annihilated and he would have died without a doubt.

Even relying on that unknown power won't work.

Long looked at Xiaojie's serious expression, then looked at Jin and shook his head.

This guy, Jin Fulisi... is such a thief!

Even if he beat Jin once, he had to admire the other party's brain... Moreover, he became the president more by taking advantage of the situation.

Both Pariston and Jinfulis have monstrous brains, the difference is that Jin has seen through "life", while Pariston still thinks about many complex factors such as the situation and human nature.

Xiaojie came to see him sincerely, wanting to express his gratitude and say farewell.

But Jinfulis had other ideas. If there was anyone else in this world who could restore Gon's strength...it would be no one except Oboro.

"Are you really willing?"

Long stared at Xiaojie and suddenly said in a deep voice.

Xiao Jie raised his head, looked at Long's face, and suddenly smiled: "What can I do if I am unwilling to accept it... Jin also said that I am lucky to be alive, and I should not have any unrealistic fantasies."

"For ordinary people, becoming a hunter can be seen as a journey from 0 to 100, which requires gradual improvement. You were like this before. However, although your starting point was 0, there were hidden attributes below this 0 that had not yet been allocated, which was your potential. Every time others become stronger, they may only allocate 1 attribute, but you have 10 points... So, when you were a rookie, the value that seemed to be 0 might actually be 100."

Long made an analogy, "You are also 0 now, but the difference is that you not only have no hidden attributes, but you also owe... If you want to start over, you must first fill up the attributes you owe. In addition, after paying off the debt and starting from 0 again, you may not have any allocated potential values... If you want to become a hunter again, it will be ten or a hundred times more difficult than for ordinary people."

"You... still have the potential to become a hunter. Do you want to continue?"

Hazy said.

Xiaojie... hesitated.

If it weren't for Aunt Carter, and if it weren't for this time on Whale Island, returning to the warmth of family life, he might have agreed without hesitation.

"Ugh."

Hazy sighed softly.

"Qi... is a kind of life energy that comes from our bodies. The reason you can't feel it is because your Qi is too weak... Your body is now just a shriveled shell, without a single drop of oil or water."

"Your potential spiritual power has also been exhausted due to your overdrawn power... causing your perception to be even worse than that of an ordinary person."

"But Qi... always exists. It has not disappeared. The fact that you are still alive is the best proof of that."

Hazy said calmly.

"If you want to sense it, first you need to stimulate your blood and flesh to increase its concentration, and second, you need to amplify your five senses... The breathing technique I taught you before is only the simplest one. The higher the level of breathing, the deeper the resonance between your spirit and body. In addition, the Qi... is not only limited to the body's internal organs, but also external organs. The human world... the entire nature is a natural aura. You can also feed yourself by absorbing the cleanest and purest Qi in nature... But the premise of all this is that your body must recover to a certain degree."

"You are too fragile now. Even if I teach you the method of breathing and running, you will find it difficult to bear it... If I guess correctly, you should have secretly tried to run the breath of breathing in private, right?"

Hazy asked.

"Ah."

Xiaojie nodded.

"Isn't it painful?"

Long said bluntly: "Now...any breath that is even slightly more intense could cost you your life."

"You...are you going to try again?"

Long started eating again. "My ability is not omnipotent. The soul can do many things, but there are also many things... that it cannot do. My ability is mixed with negative energy, so... I can't use it for the purpose of 'healing'."

He said this to Jin.

"It's up to you to choose."

"Your destiny is in your own hands."

After saying this, Long stopped bothering Xiaojie.

The only thing he could think of was the breathing method... but due to Xiaojie's condition, breathing might allow him to reopen the door to hunters, but it might also be a poison that would take his life.

Some losses cannot be compensated by external capabilities.

He can only rely on his inner self...and with Xiaojie's current body, it is difficult to develop his inner self.

More often than not, it is about squeezing out the last bit of potential that comes with deadly danger, and then slowly replenishing it through external energy.

Of course, there is another way.

That is... the Dark Continent.

The life energy in that world is strange and huge...there are all kinds of unknown things.

Maybe there is a treasure that can help Xiaojie recover, but now... Long himself hasn't set out yet, the road ahead is unknown, who can guarantee it?

Moreover, in this kind of matter... the most important thing is Xiaojie's 'heart'.

Whether his thoughts can be revived is closely related to his "heart".

...

An hour later, Jin took Xiaojie and left on the monster.

Long looked at the black spot in the sky and whispered: "After all, it is still the blood of Fu Li Shi..."

Chapter 240 Set off, heading for the Dark Continent!

A few days later, a small group of 23 people led by Long officially set out for the Dark Continent.

The route they were going to take was the direction that the Ochima Federation had explored back then, that is, from the northernmost point of the human continent, straight to the top of the island in the lake.

Judging from the map, the lake where the human world lives is elliptical in shape. If extended from the east to the west, the distance is the longest and the journey time is the longest.

As for the upper and lower parts, they should be relatively shorter.

But it's also more dangerous.

Because the previous few times humans traveled to the Dark Continent, especially Netero and Biond, they did not take this route.

In the team, except for the six members of the Long Team, the remaining seventeen were not members of the Hunter Association. Five of them were the strongest fighters selected by V5 from the military of their respective countries, and they were also Nen users. The remaining twelve were the top characters in various industries... Here, everyone signed a contract with V5.

Some did not want to miss this opportunity and actively applied to go with Long and his friends, while others made deals with V5.

And Long has absolute say in this team.

In fact, Long didn't want to bring so many people, but considering that V5 also had its concerns, he let it go.

The ship they left on was not big, and could only accommodate about a hundred people, but it was made with humanity's most advanced technology... It had many functions and was considered a medium-sized ship.

Long also dealt with various matters before leaving.

Their actions this time were extremely secretive. Even the middle and senior management of the Hunter Association and the Fields Family were not aware of the time and location of their departure.

Therefore, no one came to see him off.

It was on a sunny morning that he left the human world.

……

After getting on the boat, Long got to know the others briefly.

He didn't need to remind her about some matters and rules after arriving in the Dark Continent.

These people can be selected and go together... V5 has already been "trained" or "informed" almost enough.

It would take several months to travel from the island in the lake to the dark continent at the speed of their ship.

During the journey, they will stop at some islands along the route to replenish supplies.

Ever since Long said he would lead the team to the Dark Continent, v5 had already begun to deploy, such as carrying out auxiliary work on this route.

Set up a small base on the isolated island closest to the Dark Continent as a transit point, etc.

There is no need to worry about these things...the power of humanity began to manifest itself at this moment.

As for life on the ship, there is nothing much to say, it is very boring.

Some members were excited when they first boarded the ship, but as they got closer to the Dark Continent, they gradually became worried.

I can clearly feel that the situation is different.

And Long's brain has been filtering limited information.

On the one hand, today’s human beings have limited understanding of the Dark Continent.

On the other hand, it's a picture.

In his previous life, he had seen some simple illustrations inserted into anime or comics when the Dark Continent was mentioned.

This... is all he knows about the Dark Continent.

"From Netero's report to V5 and the diary written by Byander, danger and opportunity coexist... This seems to be a specific balance in the Dark Continent. Danger naturally refers to disasters, while opportunities refer to some kind of 'hope' or resources that are beneficial to the human world... It has always been like this."

The next day, Long stood on the deck at the bow, leaning on the railing, looking at the sparkling sea with his thick brows furrowed.

He reached the summit of the human world and possessed abilities that were almost as powerful as a disaster. Even so, he felt heavy-hearted as he set out on this journey to the Dark Continent.

It’s like after finally training a character to the maximum level, suddenly, you have to start from the novice village again.

"team leader."

At this time, Men Qi and his five companions also boarded the deck, and Anthony shouted with a relaxed expression.
