Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 127 Silence
The egg of an unknown mythical beast.

A sphere made of gold.

Fossilized claws of ancient creatures.

Violin of the late music master Fei Hemen.

There is only a few documented records of the Vault Box of the Lost Kingdom.

The Corundum Heart gemstone excavated from the ruins of the ancient city of Pombo.

The golden scepter of the desert kingdom of Selma, which has been destroyed for three hundred years.

This is the championship prize for this year's Fighting Olympics.

In this world where collecting is popular, the premium is beyond imagination, so just hearing the names of these prizes can give you a sense of money.

But compared to treasures with a heavy sense of history such as the Dome Box, Moro was more concerned about the nutritional dishes of the fantasy beast eggs mentioned by Mengqi.

Can enhance the mind...

This kind of thing has never been revealed in the original book.

While Moreau was surprised, he suddenly realized that the power of thought is essentially the application of life energy.

If the mythical beast is a creature with great vitality, then it makes sense.

Moreau then thought of the chapter about gourmet hunters in the original book, which only stopped at the hunter test and there was no more information after that.

If I have to mention one, there is also Lin Nie from the Hunter Association, who appeared twice in the election episode.

He was a veteran gourmet hunter who had traveled with Netero to the Dark Continent.

Perhaps that experienced gourmet hunter also knows how to discover the nutritional value of fantasy beast-level ingredients.

"Are there many mythical beasts?"

Moro looked at Mengqi and asked impatiently.

As for food, Moreau believes that it is a way for human beings to survive in the world and satisfy both the spirit and the body.

On this basis, if it could also meet the need to enhance mental energy, that would be perfect.

"Very few."

The excitement on Meng Qi's face faded a bit, and this concise answer actually revealed some disappointment in her heart.

The world is so big.

There are secret realms and demonic areas in every region of the six continents.

Especially the Demon Realm, which is rich in various top-quality ingredients.

However, in such a vibrant ecosystem, it is rare to see mythical beasts.

Therefore, the number of mythical beasts currently registered in the biological database can be said to be very small.

So much so that after seeing this fantasy beast egg with a dark purple diamond pattern, even the organizers of the Sky Arena Fighting Olympics were not sure what species it was.

The strength of its vitality can only be monitored through certain means, so as to classify it into the biological level range of fantasy beasts.

Moreover, the hatching method of the eggs of fantasy beasts like this has always been an unknown mystery.

Therefore, from the perspective of the organizers of the Fighting Olympics, the significance of the Fantasy Beast Egg is more of a tonic reward given to fighters.

"This thing is really rare."

Meng Qi paused and said with heartfelt emotion.

In the entire world, only a place with great power and financial resources like the Sky Arena can be so extravagant as to use the egg of a fantasy beast as one of the championship prizes.

"It seems that it may be more common in the Dark Continent."

Moro was also a little disappointed. After all, this was also a way to improve one's strength, but it was one of the few things that could not be bought with money.

He stared at the photo of the mythical beast egg on the screen of his mobile phone with sharp eyes.

This fantasy beast egg must not be missed.

"Moro, what is this dark continent you just mentioned?"

Mengqi was attracted by the dark continent that Moreau mentioned.

Are mythical beasts more common only in the Dark Continent?
But she had never heard of such a place.

"You do not know?"

Moreau asked subconsciously.

Menqi was confused for a moment and thought, should I know this?

Looking at Mengqi's reaction, Moro immediately realized that in the Hunter Association, any news about the "Dark Continent" had long been listed as one of the taboos by Netero, not to mention the news control from V5.

In other words, it is normal that Menqi did not know about the Dark Continent during this period.

"The Dark Continent... is a vast land outside the world map."

Moreau describes it simply.

But just the words "outside the world map" aroused Menqi's great curiosity.

Even Hua Shi Dou Lang and Kalista, who were only interested in fighting, couldn't help but prick up their ears.

They are actually similar to Moreau, and they care more about the benefits that the mythical beast eggs can bring to physical strength.

If there really is a place where mythical beasts are often seen...

Then no fighter can resist this temptation.

Meng Qi's eyes sparkled when she heard this. She didn't show any disappointment at all. She asked excitedly and eagerly, "And then what?"

"It's hard to explain in a few words."

Moreau shook his head.

Meng Qi's excitement froze again, but she adjusted herself the next moment and said seriously: "It's okay, I'm very patient, you can take your time..."

"Yeah, but I don't have the patience."

"?"

Meng Qi was stunned, looking at the casual Moro, she really wanted to jump up and strangle this guy by the neck.

It arouses people's curiosity, and then comes to an abrupt end!

What a bastard!
Men Qi felt a surge of irritation in her heart, but she could only suppress it.

Moro did not continue the topic of the Dark Continent, but took Hua Shi Dou Lang's mobile phone and looked at the pictures of the Corundum Heart Gem and the Dome Box.

The former is an Asscher-type square orange corundum gemstone.

The square orange gemstone is decorated with intricate facets, creating a spider-web-like stepped effect, revealing a more balanced light in its elegance.

Gems of this shape are rare.

Moreover, it was discovered in the ruins of the ancient city of Pombo that was destroyed in a volcanic eruption, which gives it a special value.

Biscuit will definitely like this gem.

The latter is a dome-shaped treasure box with a hemispherical cover inlaid with precious objects such as agate, jade, pearls, and gems, while the box body is dotted with tiny seven-colored gems.

Just one glance and you'll feel it's incredibly luxurious.

I don’t know what this dome-shaped treasure box was originally intended to hold.

But I guess that's what Biscuit likes too.

As for the other prizes, it is impossible to tell whether they have any spiritual energy attached to them just by looking at the photos.

But judging from the name and brief message, the possibility of it being attached with spiritual energy is very high.

Especially the violin of Fei Hemeng.

"The prizes are so rich that it's hard to imagine. This championship... must be won."

After looking at the photos, many thoughts suddenly came to Moro's mind.

Kalista sighed on the side: "Sky Arena is too rich."

"Ah."

Hua Shi Dou Lang smiled.

Moro returned the phone to Hua Shi Dou Lang, thinking that the Sky Arena's annual revenue from ticket sales and peripheral product sales alone was an income that was unimaginable for ordinary people, not to mention the large amount of income from direct opening of the market.

This is no longer something that can be described simply as "too rich".

In order to get these prizes, you need to get the post owner qualification quickly.

Moro thought silently, and from time to time he could feel the resentful gaze coming from Mengqi's direction.

"Menqi, if you want to know more, go find a travelogue called New World Chronicles. The content there will be more detailed than my description and can satisfy your curiosity, of course, if you can find that book."

"A new world journey?"

Upon hearing this, Men Qi quickly put away her resentful expression, and instead looked full of anticipation, remembering the name of the travel journal firmly in her mind.

As soon as she has free time, she will go look for this travel book.

Moro looked at Mengqi's reaction and felt that the young gourmet hunter seemed to be happy a little too early.

Journey to the New World is a book written hundreds of years ago. It was originally regarded as a book describing the world imagined by a madman.

No one knows that the world described in the book really exists.

Therefore, no one really thinks of this book as a travelogue, but rather classifies it as science fiction, and the response has always been mediocre.

Until now, it has been a book of fantasy.

As far as the second-hand market around the world is concerned, it is possible that it is something that cannot be bought with money, just like the Fantasy Beast Egg.

But that was none of his business.

The next morning.

When Moro woke up from his bed, he felt refreshed and full of strength.

"This feeling……"

Straightening his upper body, Moro looked down at his hands in surprise.

Before, under the high pressure of death, daily training was extremely hard.

Even before going to bed, I have to train myself until I can't hold on any longer before going to sleep.

This results in people waking up the next day exhausted both mentally and physically, and often unable to recover to their full potential.

However, now I have not only recovered well, but I also feel like my energy is overflowing.

“This is the power of medicinal cuisine.”

Morrow suddenly clenched his fists.

well.

Grasp the better point.

After spending two days confirming the usefulness of the medicinal dietary supplements, Moro turned to thinking about how to "test the results."

The level symbols of the annual rings can only be used to test the improvement of the level of temperament and have nothing to do with changes in physical strength.

When it comes to testing changes in physical strength, Moro quickly thought of a method.

That is the Trial Gate of the Zoldyck Family, a huge double stone gate consisting of seven doors.

The left and right sides of the first stone door at the bottom weigh two tons each.

After that, the weight will double with each additional stone door.

So the total weight of the seven doors is 256 tons.

If I remember correctly, Killua was able to push open the third door weighing 16 tons just by strength.

After acquiring the ability of mind control, he directly pushed open the fifth door with the intervention of mind energy.

of course.

The Gate of Trial should have a giant structure similar to a hinge to fix the stone gate and assist the flexibility of pushing the stone gate.

Therefore, even if one can push open the first trial door, it does not necessarily mean that the thrust has reached 4 tons.

"If I rely purely on my physical fitness, with my current strength, I'm afraid I can't even open the first door. With the intervention of 'Mind Qi', I should be able to open the first door easily."

Moreau stared at his clenched fist.

He had never practiced physical strength.

Since I mastered the power of thought, I no longer have the extra time and energy to focus on this.

Now with the help of medicinal cuisine, we have come up with ideas in this regard.

"Let's squander this 'energy' first."

Moro slowly closed his eyes and entered the state of "absoluteness", carefully experiencing the feeling of losing the support of his mental energy.

A few seconds later.

Moro opened his eyes, looked at the wall in front of him, and a small flying star popped out between his fingers.

Pah.

The small flying star hit the wall, making a small sound.

"Or not."

Moro tried to use "Hide" to eliminate the shape and traces of the flying star, but there was no progress.

I don’t know if it’s because the technique is too difficult or I’m not using the right method.

So much so that there has been no progress.

Moreau sighed.

He has enough imagination to support his understanding and cognition of the framework of the mind ability system, but he still lacks sufficient experience and theory in more delicate and advanced techniques.

Maybe something was wrong, but he didn't realize it.

If you are not aware of the problem, there is naturally no way to solve it.

If there is a famous teacher to guide you, he should be able to see the problem immediately.

"Could it be that because of the 'mind leaving the body', it has increased the difficulty of casting 'invisibility'?" Moro pondered.

After creating the Flying Star tactical system, he already had the idea of applying "hidden" to Flying Star.

During this period of time, whenever I have free time, I will set aside some time to practice.

But the current situation of no progress inevitably made him wonder what went wrong, and he felt sorry for wasting time.

In the following time, Moro didn't bother to wash or eat, and he squandered his energy at the moment.

Moreau didn't stop until he felt a little tired.

"It doesn't work."

There was still no progress, which gave Moro a headache.

"Let's try another approach."

Moro took a deep breath to adjust his state, then gathered his thoughts on his hands.

Mobilize, compress, control and shape.

The thought lingering on the palm of his hand soon took the shape of a tiger's head and fangs.

It was the Tiger Bite Fist that he copied from Hua Shi Dou Lang yesterday.

Morrow raised his hands up and down, and suddenly punched into the air.

I saw the tiger-head, fang-like thought ball on the fist suddenly extend and pounce forward to bite.

Moreau held his breath and concentrated his mind.

As he tried his best to control it, the tiger-head-and-fang-shaped energy below suddenly disappeared without a trace of its existence.

The next moment.

A table in the room was hit by the tiger-head-and-fang-like energy and disintegrated in an instant.

But a chair next to the table was also hit and disintegrated out of nowhere.

Surprisingly, he was hit by another group of tiger-head-and-fang-shaped mental energy that had disappeared without a trace of its existence.

"Huh, huh..."

Morrow suddenly began to breathe heavily.

The change in his physical condition caused the tiger-head-and-fang-shaped thought ball extending from his hands to disintegrate instantly.

“It succeeded, but it was too difficult.”

After adjusting his breathing, Moro showed no joy at all.

Just now, his concentration reached the point where he even forgot to breathe, but he could only barely complete the casting of "Hide".

At this level, the combat value in battle is not high.

The more critical question is -

Even suppressing the "conjoined mind group" is so difficult, so when will I be able to master the skill of using "invisibility" on the flying stars?
No wonder there has been no progress for so long.

And judging from the results, there is little point in practicing this technique.

In other words, it is incompatible with the characteristics of the offensive release system, which is straightforward, simple and rough.

The offensive release system itself focuses on the power of the mental energy released out of the body.

"Hidden" is mainly reflected in the suppression of mental energy, which is generally more conducive to coordination with functional abilities.

For example, Kurapika's materialized chains, Hisoka's retractable love, and Machi's thought threads.

Moreau lay on his back on the bed, his mind racing but he couldn't come to a conclusion.

"Forget it, I don't want to."

Moreau closed his eyes and took a moment to rest.

His first game time has been set, it's 4 o'clock this afternoon.

After finishing this game, he planned to go to Kukulu Mountain to test the waters with the Trial Gate of the Zoldyck Family.

It takes less than two days to fly from the Sky Arena to Kukuru Mountain.

During the journey, we are basically on the airship, so it will not interfere with our practice.

Four p.m.

The arena venue on the 221st floor.

The noisy voices filled every corner of the venue.

The venue was once again packed.

After all, it is a competition above 200 floors, and in terms of viewing experience, it is far better than those below 200 floors.

"Let us give a warm welcome to the two climbers."

As the commentator's passionate voice intervened, the noise in the venue subsided at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The contestant entering from the east passage is Xia Li, who has achieved a record of 9 wins and 3 losses. According to the promotion rules, as long as Xia Li wins one more victory, he will be qualified to challenge the host."

“So we have reason to believe that today’s Xiali players will definitely go all out and give us a wonderful game!”

"Look, the contestant coming from the west passage is none other than the Thinker Moreau who shined in the arena two months ago."

"For some unknown reason, after reaching the 200th floor, contestant Moro did not immediately choose to challenge for the position of floor master, but instead remained silent for two months."

"But now we see Morrow has stepped into the ring, no matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter anymore."

"What's important is that we here will witness a wonderful battle today!!!"

The commentator's words aroused the anticipation of the audience.

The noise, which had just subsided, suddenly showed signs of reviving.

In the audience, many 200-level contestants came to the scene.

The result of today's game will affect the competition for the position of OP to a certain extent.

“It’s really getting a lot of attention.”

Somewhere in the audience, a gentle young man wearing glasses silently scanned the venue and could see one Nen user after another.

The gentlemanly young man is named Yun Gu, and he is Bisiji's apprentice.

He has just arrived and intends to use the environment of the Sky Arena to hone his fighting skills, but he is currently in a wait-and-see attitude.

I just happened to notice this game and bought a ticket to enter.

But after entering, he quickly noticed something strange.

The Nen users who came to watch the game...

That's a bit too much.

"Is it because of the 'Combat Olympics'?"

Yun Gu raised his hand to his chin, his eyes filled with thought.

In fact, rather than personally getting involved in battles, he prefers to observe the strengths and weaknesses of others from a bystander's perspective, and then improve his own strength by learning from their strengths and making up for their weaknesses.

Because of this behavior, I always attract some gossip from my master.

In addition to this reason, another reason that prompted Yun Gu to come to the Sky Arena was the approaching Fighting Olympics.

This made Yun Gu clearly feel a strong atmosphere.

"I feel like my blood is starting to boil."

Listening to the chaotic shouts from all around, Yun Gu smiled and then looked at the two contestants who had already walked onto the stage.

"Both of these guys seem to have strong energy."

Staring at the mental energy of Moro and Xia Li on the ring, Yun Gu put himself in their shoes and compared them, and felt that they were just as good.

However, before both parties use "Lian", this initial judgment is not completely accurate.

So Yun Gu also began to look forward to this battle.

In the arena.

Morrow and Charlie stood in the ring, and the referee was entering the ring.

Taking advantage of this gap, Moreau observed Charlie.

A pair of eyebrow-less eyes naturally have a vicious look, and combined with the aura of a self-proclaimed predator, they are quite intimidating.

It's just that the basic skills are a bit lacking.

But since he was able to achieve nine wins on the 200th floor, his actual combat skills should not be too bad. It is also possible that his Nen ability is extremely combat-specific.

A more specific judgment can only be made after the official fight.

Anyway, no matter what type of ability the opponent has, Moro had no intention of using the abilities of "Starlight Condensation" and "Flying Star of Fraud" in the ring from the beginning.

At this time, the referee came between the two.

"The match is based on a points-based knockout system and there is no time limit."

At this point, the referee glanced back and forth at Morrow and Charlie, then took two steps back, waved his arms crisply, and said, "Start!"

As the referee finished speaking, the battle was about to begin under the gazes of countless expectant people.

Charlie, who was eyeing the victory eagerly, was like a wound-up spring. He attacked Moreau first without even trying.

Does this confidence come from ability or some other reason?
Moreau didn't intend to think about this question.

It was definitely not because he was careless.

But before the two sides got closer, he had the means to suppress Xia Li's momentum.

"Tiger Bite True Fist"

Morrow assumed the starting posture of the tiger bite fist, with the classic upper left hand hanging and lower right hand hanging, making a pose as if a tiger opened its mouth and showed its fangs.

Suddenly, Moro's upper left hand pushed forward, and the thoughts lingering on it suddenly roared silently and pounced on Xia Li.

"too slow!"

Xia Li saw it clearly and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Wet Body"

This is Xia Li's transformation ability, which can give the mental energy on his body a slippery property.

With this ability, Xiali is extremely adept at close combat, and can use his slippery properties in attack and defense to make his opponent's punches and kicks slide to the side, thus exposing an open goal.

This trick has been tried and tested and has always worked.

However, as the characteristics of his ability were revealed, most of his opponents found the weaknesses of this ability.

That is, it is impossible to slide away sharp objects, as well as mental attacks that are more powerful than slippery objects.

In fact, his three defeats were due to his opponents exploiting his weaknesses.

This is why he decisively took action against Moreau.

A stranger, it is highly likely that you don't know his abilities.

Charlie was certain of this because Moreau did not bring any weapons with him on stage.

"As long as I get close, I'll definitely win!"

Using the ability of his slippery body, Xiali greatly reduced the friction with the ground of the ring, and his speed suddenly increased.

In an instant, he not only avoided the tiger-headed ball of energy that was pouncing on him, but also closed the distance in one fell swoop.

At this moment, he seemed to see victory.

however--

Don't wait for Xia Li to be happy too early.

There was a sudden blow to the chin.

Bang!
Xia Li flew upwards, and his consciousness became blurred in an instant.

“W-What…I was attacked…?!”

As he flew into the air, a doubt flashed through Xia Li's mind, and then his consciousness was swallowed by darkness.

below.

Moro silently put away the other tiger head energy that he had used "Hide" to erase all traces of its existence.

At this moment.

The entire conference hall fell into deathly silence.

The countless gazes that were originally full of expectation were now filled with confusion.

Edge of the ring.

The referee didn't even walk away, but turned around and looked at the scene with a stiff expression.

On the commentary desk.

The beautiful young commentator seemed to be strangled by the neck, with her mouth open, but she forced herself to swallow the words she had organized.

Because it all happened so fast.

She was just about to give a vivid account of Xia Li's superb body movements.

But the next moment, I saw Xiali flying up for no apparent reason.

So, what happened?!
This was also the question in the minds of the vast majority of the audience at the venue.

"This……"

Seeing the battle end at the speed of light, even Yun Gu, who had a deep understanding of the ability of telekinesis, was amazed.

I don’t know whether to say that Charlie was too reckless, or that Morrow’s ability to hit the vital points was too strong?

But one thing is for sure...

That boy is very strong!
