TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 430: Searching the city



Chapter 430: Searching the city

The sound of something hitting the floor hard was heard.

The man looked like a ball bouncing from side to side.

"Ahh ..." He was breathless and extremely tired from the loss of blood.

His pale, lifeless body can be seen when his clothes are back to normal.

"Fellow, I appreciate your help." The man was lying on the floor and almost asleep, but he did not forget to thank Liu Yang for his great help.

If Liu Yang refused to offer help, he would already be dead.

"You are welcome" Liu Yang replied casually under the steel helmet before he started walking. He had no reason to stay or continue to help the man lying on the floor.

"Fellow, could you wait a while? I just need some time to recover, can you wait that long? I will pay for it and for the previous help" The man was a little nervous about his situation. He was already severely injured and very tired.

If any tree or creature attacks him, he has no chance of defending himself.

"How much time do you need?" Liu Yang was already looking forward to seeing Lida again. He already received a message from her.

Besides, members of the slave market were also in the City of Lamentation waiting for him.

"I just need five minutes. The effects of the potion are quick" The man did not dare to delay. He drank a bright white potion.

coff !!! cofff !!!

When the liquid was swallowed and went down to his stomach, he started coughing up blood with green spots. The stains were a type of poison that the trees had injected into his body.

His heavy injuries were healed at an impressive rate while all his blood and energy were restored. But the great danger of this is that the user's body got a little tired and needed a little rest.

The man lay on the floor and closed his eyes.

Liu Yang looked at this scene and found it a little funny. He hadn't even agreed to wait for five minutes, but the other side had fallen asleep.

(That person ... How did he get into that kind of situation?) Liu Yang thought.

Looking at the person lying on the floor, he decided to wait a while.

The reward the man was offering attracted Liu Yang's attention a little.

Common items such as a potion, equipment, and money were not of interest to Liu Yang, the only things that aroused his interest were strange or rare skills, strange items, or precious information.

As the person looked like a nobleman, Liu Yang thought he would have any of these three things he was looking for.

Shuoooo !!!!! Shuoooo !!!!! Shuoooo !!!!!

Without giving Liu Yang time to rest, several hundred branches shoot towards him and the man lying on the ground.

"Fuck!!!" Liu Yang clenched his teeth and ran towards the man lying on the floor and swung the sword everywhere as he spun his body at the same time.

The scene was like a knight dancing while cutting the branches.

The cut branches fall to the ground like a rain of wood, but the instant they touch the ground, the branches dry up and are absorbed by the soil as a nutrient.

"This is getting really annoying ..." Liu Yang murmured under the helmet.

But why didn't he put up a barrier to protect the man? The answer was simple.

In the areas around the Wild Region, barriers cannot be used, at least barrier creatures using barrier devices. The only barriers that work are people's skills.

Since Liu Yang didn't have that kind of skill, he could only attack and cut the sharp branches.

It seemed that the system prevented people from using barriers in that part of the Xinia Continent. Not even the special barriers used inside the mine work in areas close to the Wild Region.

Thus, Liu Yang could only cut and rotate for a few minutes until the person lying on the floor wakes up.

Four minutes later ...

"Ahhh!!" As if he had woken up from a nightmare, the man woke up suddenly while screaming. He was a little scared.

"I'm still alive??!! He looked around and saw that Liu Yang was spinning and cutting the sharp branches that attack both of them.

"Fellow, I thank you for your help again." He realized that Liu Yang spent the last four or five minutes protecting him.

"You are welcome," Liu Yang commented casually.

"Can you protect yourself? A person with enough confidence to come to that place shouldn't be weak, right?" Liu Yang started to stop cutting the branches that were attacking the man.

As he was already awake and was very well, Liu Yang no longer needed to protect him.

"Yea. The little rest was enough for me to recover my energy" His body shone and a set of light steel armor covered his body. He looked like a knight, but he was without his helmet.

A two-meter-long sword appeared in his hands, he cut towards the sharp branches.

slash!!! slash!!!

The branches were easily cut as if they were made of paper. This shows that he had a lot of points in the strength attribute.

"About my reward, what do you have for me?" Liu Yang asked.

"Well Fellow, I just have a few useless things with me. Things like potions and equipment, but I can assure you that when we arrive in the city, I will reward you appropriately" He spoke honestly.

"Do you know the way to the city?" Liu Yang did not know the exact location of the city, he only knew the direction vaguely because Zily gave a map, but as he did not even know where he was currently, so it was difficult for Liu Yang to find the city.

The only thing he was doing was walking at random and following the map uncertainly. 

"I only know the way vaguely. My map is accurate, but I don't know where I am because this is a living forest and it is always changing direction. The only way to know if we are on the right path is to look for a small mountain smaller than the trees." He explained.

The City of Lamentations was underground, so it was very difficult to find the city walking at random. The only way to know if the city was close or not was to find a small mountain, that was the clue.

"I see ... So it's not much different from my situation ..."

"But there is a way to look for the city, we just need to explore the soil with special equipment. As the city is underground, we can analyze the underground and see the city"

"Do you have the device to do this?" Liu Yang also had this equipment, but he preferred not to take it off to avoid some problems. He preferred to keep it hidden.

"Yea. I will use this right away "
