Hunter X Hunter: A Natural Trait Nemesis

Chapter 50: Lost Meile Wetland, Hisoka Will Take Action (5/5)

Zhou Jue appreciates his new skills.

He estimated that if the second gear was turned on, the strength and speed could be increased by up to three times in about one minute.

But the cost of doing so is torn muscles, ruptured ligaments, and burst bones.

If you only use 1.5 times the force, you will only strain a large area of the muscle.

‘It’s a bit like Kaioken. ’ Zhou Jue’s thinking spread out.

Ta-ta-ta...

The candidates continued on their way, and the atmosphere gradually became quiet.

They have been running for an hour, and many candidates have exhausted their physical strength and have no extra energy to chat.

One of the candidates who bottomed out was Leorio.

His physical strength is considered outstanding among ordinary people, but among those who participated in the assessment, it is only average.

At this moment, I was already exhausted.

"Lerio, are you okay?" Gon asked worriedly.

"No, it's okay!" Leorio gasped, but his movements became slower and slower, "I can still... persevere!"

"Lerio..." Kurapika also looked at him worriedly.

The two followed Leorio, slowing down.

Ta-ta-ta...

Satsuki didn't care about these things, he just walked forward.

The same goes for Zhou Jue.

In the original work, Gon and the other three were deceived by Tonpa and went to the enchanting cedar tree, where they fell into hallucinations.

Leorio and Kurapika both saw their worst fears.

But with Gon's help, the two broke free from the illusion.

At the same time, the words they inadvertently said while falling into hallucinations also became an opportunity for them to have a heart-to-heart talk.

‘It seems like this is an opportunity for Gon and Killua to get to know each other. ’ Zhou Jue thought in his mind.

This is an important node in the original work.

Now that Tonpa’s role is gone, I wonder what will happen?

But Zhou Jue doesn't care.

He wasn't a nanny, so how could he care about Gon in everything?

No matter how big the plot changes, it doesn't matter to him.

…

Ta-ta...ta-ta...

Three hours later.

The number of candidates following Saci has dropped by nearly half, leaving only about two hundred people.

boom!

Suddenly, there was an explosion on the side of the tunnel, and the wall was violently knocked open by the shock wave.

Four people who were lagging behind jumped out from inside.

"Success!"

Gon landed smoothly and shouted excitedly.

"What's going on?" Saci stopped and looked back at the four of them.

"Sorry, we blew up the wall!" Gon scratched his head, looking apologetic.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you can follow up, it's allowed to blow up the wall." Saji shook his head and looked at the blown hole again, a little surprised: "It's... the area of the haunted cedar tree. If you enter that area, It’s really amazing that he survived.”

Even people who master mind can get stuck there.

What's more, how many people haven't mastered Nian yet?

Satsuki's compliment was sincere.

"Hahaha, we are lucky too." Gon scratched his head and laughed: "Killua said that the tunnel is twisted and folded. Only through the ghostly cedar trees can we catch up with you, so I had to give it a try."

Killua said?

Zhou Jue heard this word and looked at the white-haired boy holding the skateboard in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Killua still met Gon without Tonpa.

Is there something attracting these two people to each other?

Zhou Jue looked at it for a few times and then looked away.

Everything is fine, he doesn't care.

"The final impact stage is coming, everyone, hurry up." Saci said to the candidates, turned around and continued to 'walk' forward.

Hearing the final sprint, the remaining candidates were in high spirits.

They squeezed out the last strength of their bodies and tried their best to keep up with Sats in front.

Uh-huh!

Not long after, a dazzling white light appeared.

Everyone ran toward the light, and after a few breaths, they escaped from the dark tunnel and arrived at a small valley.

Outside the valley, the fresh and moist air blows in with the mountain breeze.

The candidates were refreshed and opened their eyes wide.

Everyone was surprised by the beautiful scenery in front of them.

All I saw was that the land was flat and filled with huge waters.

The water seems to be boundless, reflecting countless plants and trees, and at the same time reflecting the sky, as if bright colors are painted in the water, forming a strange picture like a vast mirror.

And in the water, there are hills of various sizes.

There are lush trees growing on the hills, and large expanses of aquatic plants surround the edges.

From time to time, birds appear, circling and playing, or looking for food in the water.

"So beautiful..." Gon admired deeply.

"Shimeile Wetland." Saji put his hands in his pockets and explained: "We generally call it the Trickster's Lair. This is the only way to enter the second venue."

"In this wetland, there are all kinds of rare animals that are not found in the outside world."

"Most of these beasts feed on humans and are cunning and greedy in nature."

Bangdang...

As he spoke, the tunnel behind him slowly lowered its gate.

The candidates looked back in surprise and saw that the way they came had been blocked.

"Next, you must continue to follow my footsteps and be careful not to fall into the trap, otherwise you will die." Saci warned.

"Don't let him fool you!"

At this time, suddenly there was a shout from the side.

A man walked out from behind the mountain, holding a human-shaped object in his hand. He pointed at Sats angrily and shouted: "This guy is a fake, I am the real examiner!"

After saying this, many candidates looked surprised.

Zhou Jue stood aside expressionlessly. He remembered that this seemed to be some conspiracy by an examinee to frame the examiner with the help of a human-faced ape that looked very similar to Saci.

"Look at this!"

The man threw what he was holding.

A ball of cloth fell to the ground dullly. After the cloth unfolded, a human ape with slender arms and legs was revealed inside.

The face of this ape is very similar to the examiner Satsuki!

"This is the human-faced ape that lives in the Shimeile Wetland. It often pretends to be human and deceives us into traps..." The man suddenly pointed at Saci, with anger on his face, and said: "This guy is the human-faced ape's partner. If you want to Trick us into the belly of the monster!"

The candidates were immediately in an uproar.

Leorio also stepped forward to compare the face of the human-faced ape with Satsuki's face. After confirming that they were similar, his face immediately became ugly.

"Could it be that you are really..." Leorio looked at Satsuki in disbelief.

"I also think this guy is a fake."

"Yes, this guy is very suspicious!"

"You actually pretended to be an examiner and deceived us for so long!"

The candidates were excited and pointed the finger at Sats.

Saci said nothing and looked at everyone in silence.

‘No, what kind of logic is this? ’ Zhou Jue looked on in confusion, unable to understand the brain circuits of these candidates.

Why did a so-called man-faced ape come from nowhere and look like the examiner Satsuki, so why did he think there was something wrong with Satsuki?

'It doesn't matter, Hisoka will take action. ’

Zhou Jue stood aside and looked at Hisoka from the corner of his eye.

call out!

Suddenly, several playing cards flew out at extremely fast speeds.
