Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Chapter 560: System Failure

The system that Klein possessed was typically very efficient.

Once something was located, it could basically analyze the situation of everything within his visual range.

However, there seemed to be an accident this time.

First of all, when Klein searched this unknown area, he discovered that there were a few spaces that were indistinct. He had no idea what was inside.

A few of the caves that could be explored were basically indistinct as well. He could only think and reason about the situation.

Klein frowned slightly. This situation shouldn’t be a problem with the system itself. He believed in the system’s accuracy.

In that case, there must be something nearby that prevented the system from exploring and interfering with it?

In other words, there was a mysterious force coiling around the area that could affect the illusory system. There was no need to mention anything else.

Therefore, Klein suspected that the force wasn’t natural, and there were traces of human manipulation.

After learning of the situation, Klein was very curious. He wanted to see who was the ruler of this mysterious land.

Klein sighed softly. “If my guess is correct, this place shouldn’t be completely uninhabited. Not only is this place inhabited, there’s also a mysterious ruler…”

This could explain why the mysterious black man who had captured the innocent girl had inexplicably entered this space.

It wasn’t like he wanted to commit suicide. Perhaps this place was his lair.

After hearing Klein’s speculation, both of them were shocked.

James blinked. “You mean to say that someone tampered with this place and prevented anyone from approaching in order to ensure that their ruling position and territory wouldn’t be disturbed?”

Then who were the rulers who lived here? And what method and power did they rely on to maintain this sense of mystery and strangeness?

Gray and James were also curious.

Since everything was man-made and not a power that appeared out of nowhere, there was no longer such fear in their hearts.

After searching, they finally found the cave that had been developed based on their experience.

As expected, it was pitch-black inside, with no end in sight.

Even with all sorts of lighting methods, they were unable to illuminate the darkness within.

Klein tried using his x-ray vision once again to observe the situation inside the cave. He discovered that it was indeed dark.

This darkness wasn’t something that he was born with. Instead, it was like a black cloth covering this layer of space. No matter what method he used, he couldn’t open it.

James frowned. “Do you think that the reason for this darkness is that some magical spell was used?”

Gray nodded slightly. “That’s right. I’ve heard of it before. It’s said that some unpresentable black mages have mastered this type of spell…”

It was like a barrier. As long as it enveloped this layer of space, the entire space would turn into darkness, unable to be illuminated by any means.

“It’s really very similar to the current situation, so I suspect that this is caused by black magic!”

Hearing James say this, Klein’s eyes lit up. This was consistent with his previous speculation.

However, when he thought of black mages, Klein’s first impression was of Demon King Saxe and the black mages under him.

Those black mages were talents that he had searched for from various dimensions. Although black magic couldn’t be used in public, there were indeed quite a few experts among them.

However, when he recalled the chaotic battle that day, Klein still remembered it clearly.

Those black mages were indeed extremely weak. It seemed like Demon King Saxe hadn’t found a true expert, and the true expert might be right in front of them!

If the one who ruled this mysterious dimension was really a legendary black mage, then this person’s identity was definitely no trifling matter.

“Gray, you know more about black mages. Think about it carefully. Are there any more famous figures in this circle?”

Gray stroked his chin as he fell into deep thought.

To be honest, black mages generally didn’t act openly, so they tried their best to hide their identity.

If there was really one person who could be considered the best in black magic, there was only one.

That person was the famous Constantine!

Constantine?

Klein seemed to have heard of this person’s name, but he didn’t expect that this person was a black mage.

According to Gray, he had heard of Constantine’s name a long time ago.

This person was elusive, and his position was a mystery.

The only thing that was certain was that he had a mysterious power that others couldn’t reach. Many people were very curious about his true identity.

However, this person was indeed very mysterious. Other than knowing his name, no other information could be found.

Later on, people gradually realized that the power he used was not quite right. It seemed to be the natural power of black magic.

Black mages were also divided into two types. One was to choose an unorthodox method to achieve their own unspeakable secrets.

On the other hand, they were born with such power, so they could not choose.

The latter number was relatively small, and Constantine happened to be one of them.

And the power of black magic contained in him had reached a certain level. Although he kept a low profile, everyone knew about him.

Klein asked curiously, “Are you saying that if there’s someone in this world who can use black magic to control a space, it’s very likely that it’s the legendary Constantine?”

Klein was also rather curious. These people were born with the power of black magic, but they weren’t recognized by people of the same path.

It was indeed a very frustrating thing to be a street rat that could only hide one’s identity and be beaten by everyone.

And a master with powerful black magic would gradually become abnormal in this long period of darkness and depression. It was very likely that he would do something that would make one’s hair stand on end!

Klein suddenly recalled that the black-robed man who had captured the innocent girl was one of the black mages?

The few of them groped their way into the darkness of the void. It was as though it was beneficial to the outside world. As long as they entered, they wouldn’t be able to see anything.

Even the scenery outside the cave seemed to be hidden in the darkness, making it impossible to see anything.

People’s eyes actually had the ability to adapt to the darkness. When they were in the darkness, they would gradually be able to see the things in front of them clearly.

This space was different. No matter how long they were in it, the surrounding darkness did not change at all.

If the darkness of the night was acceptable to people, this kind of darkness was simply suffocating.

Without being able to see anything at all, the few of them could only feel their way forward.

Fortunately, the sound could still be transmitted normally, and they could judge the general situation by the sound of their footsteps.
