Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

The 47th hero arrives

Bang, bang, bang--

Leorio could clearly feel his heart beating rapidly, his body temperature rising, sweat pouring down, and his clothes sticking to his body.

It had only been five minutes since the Ant King appeared, and in these five minutes, the Ant King had almost pushed their team into a desperate situation.

This Ant King BOSS, which was based on Meruem, used his tail whip as soon as he came up, and three consecutive hits instantly emptied the health bar of Bakuer, who had no time to react.

Bakuer had to choose to teleport back to the nearest teleport point from Elena's palace, and then use the "Spell Card·Magnetism" to rush to this battlefield again.

And this process took nearly five minutes.

Before Bakuer returned, the Ant King killed Xiaojie, who had been at the forefront, causing the team to lose members again.

However, the situation of continuous loss of members did not actually exceed the battle plan designed in advance by Mi Ji.

Normally, none of them could defeat the Ant King in a head-on battle, but the game mechanism of Greed Island Z gave them a chance.

They would use the collected cards to directly attack the Ant King or give him abnormal status, constantly weakening his long and thick health bar.

The team members would continue to fight the Ant King until all the cards that could be brought here immediately, such as "magnetic force", were exhausted.

When the Ant King's health bar was emptied, as long as at least one team member was "alive", it would be the victory of their team.

However, if all team members died before the death of the Ant King, their challenge would be considered a failure.

All the status of the Ant King would be reset, and when they challenged again, they would have to face the Ant King in his prime.

In this way, the more team members there are, the more advantageous it is to fight a single BOSS like the Ant King, but the rewards allocated to each member later will be less.

The upper limit of the number of team members in this dungeon is eight.

How to choose depends on the individual wishes of the team.

In addition, due to the special nature of Alluka, the holographic projection, she is not counted among the team members who survived on the scene.

She can neither attack the enemy nor the enemy can attack her, and she has no concept of life and death on Greed Island.

In other words, when only she and the Ant King are left on the scene, it is the victory of the Ant King.

Killua, Gon, Miki and others have never expected Alluka to participate in direct combat.

Everyone is more about letting her use her special nature to scout the enemy and cheer on the scene, so that she at least has a sense of participation.

And Alluka, who has always been lonely, is very satisfied with this treatment.

At this moment, Leorio really hopes that he can become a holographic projection like Alluka, so that he doesn't have to face the oppression of the Ant King.

He knows that it is just a monster composed of data, and he knows that he will not really die, but when facing the attack of the Ant King, he still can't help but be afraid.

Just as Mi Ji was shouting now——

"What? This damage is too high?!"

"Why does he have such a thick 'shield'?! Hanzo, don't use all your cards on his shield!"

"Such a strong desire to attack? An attack mode that will kill you if you take a combo, right? I'm really impressed!"

Soon, Mi Ji's shouting and commanding came to an abrupt end, because the ant king flashed in front of him who was quite noisy and killed him in an instant.

Leorio couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and then gritted his teeth again, continuing to use his release-type telepathy ability to blast his fists from a distance to harass the ant king's actions.

The fist flew out from the ground and hammered the ant king's abdomen and chin.

The ant king didn't even look at it, and easily dodged it. Leorio's attack didn't even scratch off a trace of its health bar, but the interference effect was achieved.

But the next moment, Leorio saw the ant king turned his head to look at him and rushed over.

Leorio was trembling all over, but he still kept his center of gravity down and continued to use his telekinetic fist to attack the rushing ant king.

Whether it worked or not, he had to do it.

Killua, Hanzo, and Bakuro, who had just resurrected and rushed back, used their own methods to stop the ant king's attack.

However, once the ant king locked onto Leorio, he would not easily change his target before he died.

Swish——

The tail whip made a bang in the air, and the shocked Leorio's head was blown to pieces.

He quickly turned into light particles and disappeared to Elena's palace.

At this time, Xiaojie also rushed back.

"Let's use that card." He suggested to Killua, "Use that "SS-level card·Hero Arrival"! ”

Although the card library of Greed Island Z has been expanded, the number of SS-level cards has only increased from the original 5 to the current 10.

And "Hero Arrives" is one of the SS-level cards. Only the team that has cleared the main storyline can get one, and it will disappear after use.

"Hero Arrives: When you are in Greed Island, you can pay half of your health to summon the most powerful NPC you have ever met to fight alongside you. After 3 minutes, the NPC will disappear."

And this SS-level card is in Killua's magic book library.

Killa looked up and saw that after such a round of fierce fighting, the Ant King's health bar was about five-sixths, and it was indeed too difficult for them to wear it down alone.

Now is indeed the best time to use "Hero Arrives".

He also knew that the "most powerful NPC ever encountered" he summoned must be Leiza.

With Leiza's 3 minutes of help, even if he deliberately let it go, he should be able to reduce the King of Ants' health and greatly reduce the pressure on everyone.

So, Killua first used his own mind ability - "Godspeed·Wind and Thunder" to dodge the King of Ants' fixed three-hit combo, and then used "Hero Arrives" in the magic book.

Soon, his health bar dropped by half.

At the same time, a summoning light flashed in the air, then fell from the sky and slammed on the ground.

Before the smoke and dust had dispersed, Killua pointed at the King of Ants and shouted: "Leiza, help us withstand the King of Ants' attack, we can..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stunned.

Not only Killua, but also Gon, Hanzo, Bakuer, Alluka, and Miki who had just resurrected and rushed over, were stunned.

Because the NPC that came was not Leiza, but another NPC that they were familiar with and had indeed met before, and it completely met all the summoning conditions of "Hero Arrives".

But didn't Duen of Limeilu Castle say that he was not on Greed Island?

Germain pressed the brim of his tricorn hat, first glanced at Killua and the others, and then looked at the ant king who borrowed the image of Meruem.

The ant king's movements suddenly stagnated and stopped in place. After some unknown calculation, he actually started the second stage without hesitation.

The dark energy burst out, and the ant king's strength, speed, and defense were all improved. It stood in place, staring at Germain vigilantly.
