Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Meanwhile, Diya had already run far away using the time stop.

He has discovered the officer's secret.

He detected the surveillance from the [Ripple Radar]; it was probably some kind of extremely keen sixth sense that allowed him to feel that he was being watched.

Diya silently hollowed out the detection range of the [Ripple Radar], deliberately leaving the garden undetected.

As long as someone walks out of that "garden vacuum" within the radar range, the ripple vacuum will expand accordingly, ensuring that the ripple does not cover the officer.

It must be said that the officer was indeed extremely suitable as a patrolman.

After bypassing a palace that belonged to some unknown princess, Dia wandered around the buildings without daring to enter.

If not on the ground, would it be underground?

He readily accepted good advice and continued to extend and expand the ripple radar underground.

Sure enough, after Dia's ripples extended downwards for a distance, a thick concrete wall entered his detection range!

'Found it! Now we need to find the entrance.'

Diya rallied her spirits and carefully searched for the entrance inch by inch along the cement wall.

Before long, following the extension of the wall, a regular staircase appeared in his ripple radar.

The staircase runs diagonally, leading straight to an inconspicuous corner of the king's palace, into a hidden, spacious room.

'A locked room?'

Diya's eyes narrowed, knowing that the next step would be the most difficult part of the entire infiltration.

He needs to infiltrate the royal palace, right under King Naspi's nose, enter the secret chamber, find a way to open the treasury, and among the countless treasures, find an inconspicuous stone that may or may not even exist.

During this period, he could not make any big commotion, nor could anyone see his face, and he had to constantly consider whether he could escape.

Thinking of this, Dia felt a pang of toothache.

This is quite difficult.

If his time stop could last longer, the pressure wouldn't be so great, but the key to extending the time stop might be hidden in the national treasury...

That's incredibly stubborn and inflexible.

However, Dia did not succumb to despair.

There is another option right now.

That method requires him to enter the secret room at least once, after which it becomes much simpler.

Thinking of this, Dia took a deep breath, slowed her pace, and quietly crept towards Naspi's royal palace without making a sound.

The palace gates were unlocked, and Dia decisively activated time stop, entering the gates without making a sound during the frozen time.

"call……"

He exhaled a breath almost imperceptibly.

Diya looked up at the dark interior of the royal palace and, following the route in her memory, groped her way toward the secret chamber.

Chapter 359 The Kings of Past Dynasties...Are Still Alive? × Weird Beast

Inside the royal palace.

In the darkness, Dia calmly observed his surroundings. With his powerful eyesight, he could barely make out his environment.

The first floor of the main hall was extremely spacious, with red, high-quality cashmere curtains hanging on the walls, and huge portraits of the kings of Kakin hanging on the walls.

The entire first floor is supported by eight massive, finely patterned stone pillars that hold up the ceiling, with a huge staircase in the center leading to the second floor.

'The second floor should be the throne room and Naspi's resting place; it's off-limits...'

Dia walked around the giant pillar and headed towards the passageway on the side.

The passageway itself has extremely poor visibility, and there is no trace of surveillance. It is hard to say what Naspi's mentality was in not installing surveillance in the palace.

It was as if there was some secret that absolutely could not be known to anyone.

In the passageway, Dia turned several corners and descended many winding staircases, feeling as if she were descending into the deepest underground.

The surrounding temperature gradually decreased as Diya descended.

Suddenly he noticed that his vision was getting brighter and brighter, and gradually electric lights appeared, illuminating the surrounding environment.

After some time, Dia passed through several rooms and forks in the road and found a huge steel door that was firmly sealed shut.

Diya looked up at the large iron gate in front of her. She estimated that the gate was about 20 meters high and, although it was not very thick, it was covered with strange [writing].

'It's the word "god" again...'

Dia naturally recognized the strange symbols in front of her.

Although he didn't understand the mysterious concept of the character "神" (shen, meaning god), he had at least studied under a master like Jin for a period of time, so he could still identify whether it was the character "神".

Under the lamplight, the tiny, densely packed divine characters on the iron gate emitted an inconspicuous, faint glow, as if some kind of magical power was flowing within them.

Dia guessed that the inscription on the gate was something like "hard" or "unshakable".

He reached out and pressed his hand against the door, feeling its surface.

The door was probably not made of simple steel or high-strength alloy; it was likely made of the same material as the short knife that Xiangpu had given him.

As a kind of enchantment, the word "divine" cannot possibly have the same effect on every material.

According to Kim.

After trying tens of thousands of industrial-grade materials, researchers discovered an extremely rare metal that can more thoroughly unleash the power of the divine characters attached to it.

This metal is extremely expensive, with a market price approaching one million jenny per kilogram.

This matter was deciphered by ancient occult craftsmen as early as ancient times, who then created a considerable number of peculiar magical artifacts.

The gate in front of us is probably made entirely of that rare metal.

The estimated value of the materials used in this door alone is astronomical.

With such an expensive construction cost, its defensive capabilities are probably unmatched by ordinary iron gates.

Diya tried to push it, but it felt as if the door was connected to space and he couldn't push it at all. If it weren't for the divine character, he would have torn the metal door to shreds like a rag long ago.

and……

Diya could vaguely sense the special fluctuations emanating from these divine characters, and she suspected that these divine characters might also have the effect of resisting some kind of spatial ability.

In this way, even some Nen users with teleportation abilities cannot bypass the surface defenses.

Diya turned her head and tried the wall next to the metal door, and found that the feedback was similar, much worse than the metal door, but still difficult to move.

The wall itself is made of special cement with a large number of steel bars embedded in it, making it extremely difficult to damage and almost inevitably causing a huge noise.

'Perhaps similar divine characters were also written inside the rooms for protection, to prevent a repeat of the Maginot Line situation. But Kakin seems to know so much about divine characters?'

Diya stared in astonishment at everything before her. Kakin, this ancient nation that had risen so rapidly in the last thirty years, truly possessed extraordinary foundations.

'We're pretty sure we haven't gone the wrong way; all we need to do is figure out how to open this door.'

He estimated that about nine minutes had passed since he left the Third Prince's palace. Time was of the essence, and he had to speed things up.

Dia raised his hand, a flash of white light appeared, and a huge scalpel appeared in his hand.

Kido's scalpel was developed to destroy Nen creations, and since the word "God" is essentially from the same source as Nen, it should also be able to destroy them!

呲——

With a flash of light, the long blade of Dia's knife pierced the iron gate as easily as cutting through butter!

In an instant, the character "神" (divine) on the door, like a flock of startled birds, emitted a blinding white light and trembled.

But before long, this sudden anomaly gradually subsided and returned to calm.

Diya waited for it to calm down completely, then twisted her wrist and gripped the handle of the knife with her large hand, like a hydraulic clamp, and began to cut the door.

Regardless of its strength, the scalpel is far superior to ordinary swords in terms of sharpness. At this moment, it cuts a small square hole in the metal door in front of it as easily as cutting tofu.

In an instant, green light refracted slightly from the cave entrance, and Dia felt a strange chill seem to drift out as well.

This cold air was extremely unusual. Even with Diya's current robust physique, she could feel a distinct chill, as if it were an extremely cold room.

'Is something being stored in here...?'

Diya frowned, put the iron door she had cut off aside, and observed it through the hole for a while.

Looking through the opening, all you could see were rows of strange square structures; there seemed to be many electronic devices emitting faint beeping sounds in the room.

After observing for a while and confirming that there were no problems, Dia decisively bent down and peered into the cave...

……

I don't know when or where.

"what?"

Jin ate his bento box, looked up at Kenzaki, and asked in surprise:

"You're asking if ghosts exist in this world?"

Kenzaki nodded fiercely, repeatedly gesturing with his trembling pupils for Jin to look behind him.

Jin ignored him, simply biting his chopsticks and letting out a strange laugh:

"Hehehe... What are you saying..."

"Of course there are ghosts in this world!"

Kenzaki's eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, staring at the strangely behaving Kin, too shocked to speak.

"Not only ghosts and fairies, but also souls exist in this world."

Jin grinned as he looked at the terrified, dumbfounded tool in front of him:

"Don't use your shallow scientific knowledge to question this completely absurd world, or it might collapse..."

But then he seemed to think to himself and said:

"I think I said this to someone before... Oh right, that kid Dia asked me this question before, ahahaha..."
