The extremely high concentration of dark energy in the environment makes the Netherworld no longer suitable for those with vitality to stay.

Before arriving, Raymond thought that the Netherworld should be as dark, damp and cold as the Abyss Plane, but in fact, when he started moving, he found that his imagination was quite different from the actual situation here.

The dark energy generated in the ordinary plane is in conflict with the plane itself, so even if there is a naturally generated area with high dark energy, it is difficult to cause too much impact on the surrounding environment.

However, the dark energy in the Netherworld is part of the plane itself, so it not only has a strong adsorption effect, but also has a certain corrosive effect. If necessary measures are not taken for protection, then those with vitality will soon be assimilated or even dissolved.

Yes, it is dissolved!

It is like clear water being poured into a dry desert. With strong absorption and penetration capabilities, no matter how much there is, there will be no residue.

But just to obtain data like this, Raymond also paid an unexpected price.

The low-level ghosts he encountered in the swamp before were the result of his sudden intrusion and the conflict caused by his being noticed. When he used the radiant light released by the light magic to move forward, he became like a "beacon" in the darkness, causing many underworld creatures who were sensitive to light energy to gather around him from all directions.

The lowest-level ghosts naturally did not dare to approach.

The slightly higher-level ghosts or resentful spirits followed behind.

But those underworld creatures with a little wisdom and a certain foundation of strength eventually swarmed in fearlessly after their numbers grew to a certain extent. And they made a hissing sound similar to a low-frequency shock wave, summoning more underworld creatures to gather in his direction.

The underworld creatures, whether visible or invisible, have different forms and great differences in strength, but the common feature they have is that once they start to gather, they will never stop. No matter how heavy the damage is, they rarely feel fear or similar emotions. It is almost a tough attitude of fighting to the death.

The deterrence formed by the light energy is only effective for the lowest level of underworld creatures, so Raymond was besieged because he was not careful for a moment after leaving the swamp.

Ghosts, resentful spirits and other underworld creatures similar to spiritual bodies, even if they cannot break through Raymond's protective barrier after forming a scale, being besieged by underworld creatures for a long time is a taboo in the underworld.

Because no one knows what kind of powerful creatures will eventually appear due to the gathering of underworld creatures like this chain reaction.

Therefore, after Raymond realized that he was surrounded at the edge of the swamp, he launched an offensive without hesitation.

The deterrence of light energy is too low, but the consumption is not small.

The howling and screaming of underworld creatures caused by mental shock will cause their gathering speed to continue to rise.

Only the impact of the shock wave is like a crusher for these low-level underworld creatures. Any underworld creatures within the range of the shock wave will be silently killed under the impact of the shock wave and dissipated into the most basic dark energy.

Only after finding a way to deal with it, the confrontation at the edge of the swamp became a little weird.

But after canceling the glare formed by the light energy, Raymond was in an absolutely dark environment. The red glow formed by the visual organs of the Netherworld creatures around him became the simplest way to identify their density.

The isolation barrier released made him seem to be in the center of an invisible sphere. Although he was constantly attacked by Netherworld creatures from all directions, he remained motionless.

The shock wave released by him would fan out and kill all Netherworld creatures within a range of 30 meters in front.

But this attack method would cause the concentration of dark energy in front of him to increase instantly, inducing those Netherworld creatures that were not hit by the shock wave to become more and more crazy, quickly rushing into such an area, and began to devour the extremely high concentration of dark energy!

Raymond, who was surrounded by many Netherworld creatures, was like sweeping. The shock waves that were constantly released allowed him to move in a small range within a range of 30 meters. As his sweeping speed continued to increase, Raymond, who was quickly breaking out in a spiral shape, finally realized that the density of the Netherworld creatures blocking the front had decreased in vain, and he did not hesitate to increase his speed and drill into the swamp he had just left!

Continuous short-distance space jumps made these Netherworld creatures that gathered from all directions quickly lose their target. After absorbing the dark energy emitted by the Netherworld creatures that Raymond was killed, they slowly evacuated one after another.

Because the Siren main priest Miori had specifically explained that the release of Netherworld perception would cause the perception of high-level Netherworld creatures, Raymond did not rely on perception to explore after arriving, which led to the Netherworld creatures being detected by him after they gathered and formed an encirclement, and he almost suffered a loss!

So after retreating dozens of kilometers, Raymond changed direction and started moving forward, suppressing his perception fluctuations to the lowest limit, and scanned the area at a sixty-degree angle in front of him in a fan-shaped manner, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

The weak and intermittent perception allowed Raymond to finally expand the range he controlled to hundreds of meters away.

The Netherworld creatures that could sense his perception were all slightly stronger, and the Netherworld creatures that could sense Raymond's perception strength at the first time would be frightened out of their hiding places and flee in a panic!

The strength of the Netherworld creatures of different types varies greatly.

The data collected by the chip on the reaction of the Netherworld creatures when they sensed Raymond's perception showed the sensitivity of the Netherworld creatures to the range of perception fluctuations, so that when Raymond arrived at the edge of the swamp again, he could finally keep his perception strength and detection range constant, which could avoid his perception detection and avoid most of the Netherworld creatures.

The low-level ghosts are the most numerous in the swamp area. They are weak in strength but have an instinctive greed for dark energy, which makes them the lowest component of the Netherworld food chain and suffer from the prey of high-level Netherworld creatures.

The slightly higher-level ghosts no longer choose to gather, but cruise around the lower-level ghosts, choose the opportunity to enter the gathering area of ​​the lower-level ghosts, and quickly evacuate after quickly completing the hunt, avoiding the spontaneous counterattack of the lower-level ghosts.

Above these relatively higher-level ghosts are extremely special resentful souls. They have no fixed form but have relatively strong control ability. They make the lower-level ghosts gather in the area under their control like breeders, and devour the lower-level ghosts around them at a fixed frequency, so that their own strength can be steadily improved.

But these ghost creatures, whether living in groups or alone, are actually the objects of prey in this swamp area.

Because the netherworld creatures that truly rule the entire swamp area have never been discovered by Raymond.

According to the information provided by the Siren tribe over the years, in the muddy and humid swamp, a creature called water ghost by the Siren tribe is the real ruler.

This water ghost with unknown form, unknown strength and unknown number lurks in the depths of the swamp, waiting for an opportunity to move through the changes in energy fluctuations.

Raymond, who left the swamp with full of caution, never found the creatures of the underworld that occupied the ruling class. Even when he was besieged before, he could not detect any signs of the existence of such creatures of the underworld.

But the saying "the biggest risk in the underworld comes from the existence that is not noticed" is the definition of the underworld given by the Siren tribe. Not encountering it is naturally the best result. Raymond, who does not have much time, will naturally not take the initiative to explore the existence of such water ghosts...
