Chapter 358 Chapter 358 – Result of the Search
?And searched...
Nick had been searching like this for over two hours by now.
For two hours, he had been scratching every single spot on the floor with his spear.
Was there really a body somewhere in the Swallowing Swamp?
It didn't seem like it.
What if the Specter could move its body, and it simply kept avoiding Nick?
What if it just swam away whenever Nick approached it?
Like this, Nick would never be able to capture it.
Most people would have this concern, but Nick didn't.
After all, for the Specter to avoid him, it would first need to know where Nick was, and if it knew where Nick was, his ability would have deactivated.
Yet, his ability was still active.
The Specter had no idea that Nick was here, even after two hours of Nick poking around the Swallowing Swamp.
By now, it was obvious that the Swallowing Swamp wasn't some kind of predator that just waited for the perfect opportunity to strike.
If it only attacked people after they searched through the swamp for hours, it would have never gained any food, even if the world were filled with life.
So, Nick kept moving his spear back and forth.
For two more hours.
Nick had been inside the swamp for over four hours now, and he was pretty sure that he had checked through almost every part of the center.
'Is it not in the center?' Nick thought with furrowed brows.
Usually, one could find the Specter in the middle of its domain if it had one.
'But there are also cases where Specters are not in the middle of their domain,' Nick thought. 'After all, if the Infestation were in the middle of the infested area, it would have long since been caught.'
'Guess I should check.'
Nick grabbed the spear with his hand while remaining submerged.
Since he was no longer searching through the deepest part, he didn't need to use his legs anymore.
However, Nick stayed submerged since he wanted to be absolutely sure that his ability wasn't deactivated by Jason peeking over.
The search became faster since Nick could now swing his spear much more skillfully and faster.
Feet just weren't made to handle spears.
Nick kept circling around the middle of the Swallowing Swamp for another two hours.
He had been looking for over six hours by now.
However, Nick didn't stop.
