I'm extremely interested in Nen abilities.

Bisky laughed and said, "And what about you?"

Xiao Di thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "I don't know either."

"Although those people are all idiots, they're right about one thing." Just as Jingyang and his companions were about to head to the castle, a figure appeared out of nowhere at the foot of the hill, looking up at the castle as well, and said to them, "Going to this castle won't do any good. Going in empty-handed will only result in coming out empty-handed. The conditions for clearing this game are already very clear: collect 100 designated cards to clear the game, otherwise, forget about it."

NPCs?

Jingyang and Xiaodi stared intently at the suddenly appearing fellow. This person was wearing a wizard's cloak like Gandalf's, and had a fake mustache glued on—it wasn't that Jingyang had good eyesight, but rather that the mustache looked so fake and unprofessional.

Ignoring the man, Jingyang and the other two leaped one after another, heading towards the castle along the mountain path.

On the way, Bisky said, "Gam = Elijah, he's actually here. Yeah, he must be here."

"What?" Little Drop asked curiously as she leaped around.

Bisky said, "That guy was a two-star game hunter from the guild. I haven't heard from him in ages; turns out he's here." She laughed, "Looks like this game is giving him a headache..."

-

Just as Jingyang and his companions entered the main city, 10 kilometers away in the wilderness, behind a circle formed by a thumb and forefinger, on a tree, was an eye filled with interest...

"How perceptive!" Hisoka smiled happily. "Looks like I'll have to wait for them to act alone. I'll need to be more patient..."

We almost got caught...

?

Or has it already been discovered?

Hisoka's smile grew increasingly grotesque. He seemed to thoroughly enjoy the unfavorable situation, as if the thrill of walking on the edge of danger was almost making him want to ejaculate.

As for why he was here, that's quite simple.

Hisoka was intrigued when the man he thought he had killed suddenly reappeared, seemingly alive and well. Of course, he didn't really remember the passerby he had killed casually, but the man's obvious fear and terror when he met him suddenly brought back Hisoka's memories.

Isn't this the kid next to those two nemesis he encountered at the hospital? He should have killed him after that, so why isn't he dead?

Whenever Hisoka gets interested, it's always Chiro who suffers.

After a series of skillful card tricks, the magician learned that Chiro had indeed been healed by those two nemesis, and from the terrified rascal, he learned where those two nemesis had gone... to a place called Greed Island.

Hisoka had never heard of Greed Island, and he had no interest in newspapers, video games, or anything like that. However, after a brief investigation, Hisoka quickly learned everything he could.

Greed Island...Hunter Test...

Hisoka stood on a tree, toying with a deck of cards, gazing at the distant view of the main city that Jingyang and the other two had entered.

-

"anyone there?"

Three people, from shortest to tallest, walked in through the castle gate, with the tallest one shouting loudly into the castle.

Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Is anyone there?

The sound echoed in the castle hall.

"Nobody's here." Little Drop looked around.

Bisky said, "It's very quiet."

Jingyang said, "It's a bit too quiet."

The three of them walked around the hall, going to the showroom, living room, study, entertainment room... but they couldn't find a single person anywhere.

"The books in the study are neatly arranged, as if no one has touched them," Xiao Di said.

“The sheets and pillows in the bedroom were spotless, as if no one had ever lived there,” Bisky said. “And there were no ingredients in the dining room kitchen, and the tableware didn’t look like it had been used.”

"Is it just a front? Has no one ever lived here?"

As Jingyang spoke, he ran his finger across the coffee table in the living room, and not a speck of dust was visible.

It's so clean and tidy, it doesn't look like no one has ever lived here.

The three exchanged a glance and quickly walked out the door.

A few minutes later, the squinty-eyed Lei Zha pushed open the door and shouted, "Du En, Li Si Te, weren't three people here just now? This is terrible! If I'm not mistaken, the one who looks like a little girl is the legendary two-star gem hunter who likes to act young, and the super petty Aunt Bisky! If you upset her, it'll be a disaster..."

"Is this guy threatening us?"

Meanwhile, in the castle living room, which was littered with items, snacks, magazines, and game cartridges, Duen looked at "Leizha" shouting loudly in the empty castle living room and said with a cold sweat on his forehead.

Chapter 239 Dice

"anyone there?"

"Hey Hey hey?"

"Wouldn't it be impolite not to come out?"

The squinty-eyed, burly man named "Leizha" paced back and forth in the empty hall of the city lord's castle, his shouts echoing back and forth, but no one responded.

Isn't this the place?

Jingyang also had some doubts.

In the Greed Island arc of the manga, Duen and Li Si Te, two of the game designers, sent Gon an invitation card from the castle lord directly after Gon completed the entire game, indicating the location of the castle... As for whether the castle that Gon, Killua, and the others arrived at that time is the same castle that Jing Yang is currently in, Jing Yang is really not sure.

Wearing Lei Zha's skin, Jing Yang wandered around the empty castle for a couple more rounds before regretfully leaving through the gate.

The short, refined-looking Li Site, dressed in an elegant butler's attire, watched quietly as "Leizha" left the castle gate, his hands behind his back. He chuckled, "Looks like it's a transformation-type Nen ability! Duen, do you think this guy who transformed into Leizha's appearance is the Nen user himself, or just a materialized puppet?"

Li Si turned around and saw that on the living room carpet, which was covered with clutter, Du En, with his messy curly hair, was lying on his side, holding a game controller and engrossed in playing a game on a large CRT computer screen.

It wasn't until Li Si Te asked again that the disheveled Du En yawned: "The point is why you turned into Lei Zha's appearance, right? As far as I know, no player has triggered any of the levels Lei Zha is in charge of. Logically speaking, even if a player has a transformation-type Nen ability, there's no reason for them to choose to become his appearance!"

As one of the game designers responsible for the release system, Lei Zha is responsible for serving as the final boss of the designated card No. 2, "A Plot of Coastline". This card is extremely rare, and can even be considered the hardest card to obtain in the game. Not only is it the hardest to obtain, but even information about the card's whereabouts is very difficult to come by.

Fourteen players need to arrive at the seaside town of Shoufulabi, where Leiza is located, simultaneously to trigger special dialogues between certain NPCs in the town, pointing to Leiza's location, and only then will they have a chance to enter the process of fighting the boss and obtaining treasures.

The boss, Leizha, is ridiculously strong.

In the original timeline, excluding the unknown force of Bisky who was just coasting along, if it weren't for Hisoka's Nen ability "Bungee Gum" being too restrained within the rules of Leza's volleyball game, he wouldn't be able to stick to the volleyball like chewing gum... Even if Gon and Killua broke their hands, they still wouldn't be able to pass the test of Leza, this squinty-eyed boss, and obtain the No. 2 card.

Gon and Killua cleared the game in Hunter x Hunter 1999, and it's only 1996 now. Let alone clearing the game and getting the No.2 card from Razor, the hundreds of players on Greed Island don't even know where the No.2 card is or how to trigger it, let alone have ever seen the boss Razor.

"You're all so arrogant! You won't even see me?"

Suddenly, an arrogant voice came from the gate. Li Si looked over and could barely keep his calm smile on his handsome face. Even Du En was drawn to the voice and saw "Golden = Freecss" walking back into the castle gate. Several black lines appeared on his forehead.

"No matter who it is, it doesn't even try to hide the fact that it's pretending..." Li Site stood there with his hands behind his back, speechless as he watched "Jin" walk towards him and pass right through him as if it were nothing.

Watching "King" wander around his magazines, game console, and snacks, Duen's eyebrows twitched: "Even though he can't see us, and even though I know this guy isn't King, seeing that face still makes me really uncomfortable..."

Jing Yang was completely unaware of this. All he could see was an empty castle hall. Not wanting to have made a wasted trip, he reluctantly put on his "golden" skin again and wandered around the various rooms inside and outside the castle, but still couldn't see a single person.

"So, the only option left is to honestly collect all the levels?"

Back in the hall, Jingyang muttered to himself.

"That's how it should be done, isn't it?" Li Site was right next to Jing Yang, but Jing Yang couldn't hear or see him.

"I feel like this is such a hassle!" Jing Yang scratched his head. When he was reading the Hunter x Hunter manga, he wasn't particularly fond of the Greed Island arc. He preferred the part in that arc where Bisky guided Killua and Gon in training their Nen abilities.

"He finds playing games too troublesome, is there something wrong with him?" Du En, who was playing games while lying on his side, scratched his messy hair, which looked like a bird's nest, with a look of incomprehension.

Just as Jingyang was about to leave the castle gate, he suddenly stopped and looked back.

"Don't worry, you can't fake it," Li Site smiled.

“No, he’s not trying to trick us out, but…” Du En was surprised, and Li Si Te quickly noticed that Jing Yang’s gaze was not directed at the castle hall, but rather… he was looking up.

Jingyang frowned, somewhat puzzled, looking at the empty castle hall with only a huge chandelier on the ceiling.

Just now, I think I felt something in that spot?

With a sudden thought, Jingyang reached into his robes and grasped the jade pendant engraved with the character "God." His eyes focused on the chandelier on the ceiling, carefully observing it... Gradually, he seemed to see a blurry, seemingly rugged sphere above the chandelier, outlined by thick black lines.

"Hey, can he see that thing?!" Duen exclaimed in surprise, jumping up on the spot.

"Don't rush, take another look..." Li Site stared intently at the "gold" that was so close at hand. He saw the other party squat down deeply, gather a large amount of energy in his legs, and then leap into the air, jumping twenty or thirty meters high, grabbing the chandelier with one hand and hanging in mid-air.

But even as they got closer, the blurry things in Jingyang's eyes didn't become any clearer.

He tried to reach out and grab it, but he couldn't feel anything solid.

Swish!

Jing Yang flicked his wrist, and a blade-like aura emerged from his hand—the 'Drinking Thoughts Sword'.

What is he trying to do?

Can you please stop being so reckless?

Although Du En and Li Si Te didn't know what the air blade in "Jin's" hand was for or what its specific abilities were, they were already planning to intervene. However, at that moment, "Jin" thought for a moment, then put the air blade away and let go of it, falling back to the ground from the chandelier.

After all, this is a world of Nen abilities where strange and unusual powers emerge one after another. It's better to be careful about the unknown... Jing Yang took one last look at the blurry spherical shadow outlined by the thick black lines on the chandelier, and then slipped out of the gate and left the castle.

This time, after waiting for a while, he really left and didn't come back with another skin.

"Surprised all the time, it's really not good for the heart." Duen breathed a sigh of relief and lay back down in the pile of magazines and game cartridges that looked like a garbage dump.

Li Site looked up at the black icosahedron that seemed to float in mid-air above the chandelier, resembling a giant die. Suddenly, he looked towards the second-floor railing of the castle. There, a blond middle-aged man stood, his hands in his suit pockets, also gazing at the black icosahedron that was floating and rotating above the chandelier.

Arantriel said, "King and Leza were both designers of Greed Island, so how could they not enter the real castle? He's mistaken."

Below, Li Si raised his voice and asked, "What brings you here?"

“I helped design this game, can’t I come?” Arantriel jumped down from the second floor.

Chapter 240 Flashback

The castle on the mountain, the "gold" who came out of the gate, wiped his waist and pulled out a tiger skin skirt out of thin air.

Suddenly, "Jin's" appearance twisted and deformed, its size increased, and it transformed back into Jingyang's appearance.

The tiger-skin skirt transformed into a wisp of Nen energy, and after landing, it reverted to the form of the Miserable Moon Tiger Warrior II. It paced a few steps and looked up at Jing Yang.

Jingyang made a rough estimate.

Wu Er's "72 Transformations" is a collaborative Nen ability. It doesn't consume Wu Er's ki, but rather the ki of the person wearing Wu Er's tiger-skin skirt to transform. Furthermore, the greater the difference between the transformed form and the original, the more ki is consumed per second.
