Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

[World] A crimson gaze gently fell on the invisible force field surrounding Naspi, his fist quietly clenching and then slowly relaxing.

Naspi was extremely vigilant, and his body was constantly enveloped in this strange force field and heavy Nen aura.

With the power of a punch from [World] that is not enhanced by Nen, it is difficult to guarantee a one-hit kill.

It would be more likely if it were Dia herself.

However, Dia wanted to see what the other party was observing, perhaps it was related to what he was looking for, and it would be easy to alert them if he made a move now.

'Um? '

Nasby frowned, then suddenly turned to look behind him, his eyes serious as he warily scanned his surroundings.

Just now, a sense of crisis inexplicably rose in his heart. Although it was not strong, the sense of crisis itself was an unusual omen.

The air was damp, and gusts of cold wind drifted in through the window, swirling around before silently crashing against the wall and disappearing.

This place is constantly moldy and damp.

There was no one in Nasby's sight.

His sense of crisis gradually subsided.

'illusion?'

After a while, he looked away with a puzzled expression, but he was no longer as engrossed as before. Instead, he became more cautious and wary of any possible unexpected situations around him.

It was only from his perspective, which he couldn't see.

A golden, ethereal figure also peeked out, looking down at the building not far from him...

--------------

50 floors.

The candles that Feitan and the others carried had already gone out.

In this damp room, no one was willing to bother lighting the wick—even if they did, it wouldn't burn for long.

Snapped!

A considerable force struck Ruby's shoulder, jolting him out of his daze.

'Oh right, the patrol team has changed...'

Ruby slowly got up, like a tired old horse, and slowly walked towards the central staircase.

He was really tired.

According to the normal schedule, Ruby should have been laid to rest several days ago, but unfortunately, his cremation slot was taken.

The tumor in his brain often woke him up in his sleep, making him feel as if he were back on the calm sea.

He often wondered if he had survived that sea.

Did I really drift across an ocean all by myself, from the continent of Eurubian all the way to this distant ancient empire?

Did I really experience that long, seemingly endless period of time, when the sun was scorching and scorching?

The excruciating pain emanating from between his bones told him—

Yes, absolutely true.

"Cough cough..."

Ruby coughed twice, which is quite rare for a Nen user.

"Rubik, are you alright?"

Torrebellum's questioning voice came from the southwest corner of the room.

He has always been a warm-hearted person; otherwise, he wouldn't have developed the ability to transfer harm to others.

Ruby replied:

"fine."

Unfortunately, even God cannot remove all the suffering in this world.

It's a relentless cycle, where everyone is like tattered clothes spinning in a broken-down Siemens washing machine, obliviously and unknowingly conforming.

Ruby sat down silently, looking at the four shadowy figures in the four corners of the room.

They are, in fact, just like themselves, slaves to fate.

It's just that Ruby already knew, while they didn't, that's all.

and many more?

Ruby glanced at the room again, puzzled.

Four shadowy figures sat silently in the four corners of the room, saying nothing, as silent as corpses.

Is there really this many people in this room?

1, 2, 3, 4...

Ruby counted again, mentally counting heads as she went:

'Me, Torrebellum, Notor, and Feitan, four people in total…'

But the figures in the four corners of the room, plus Ruby himself, made up five people.

Ruby got goosebumps instantly, and a chill ran down her spine.

There's one more person!

Who snuck in? And when did they snuck in?

Ruby was shocked that none of the five Nen users had noticed that there was suddenly another person beside them!

And the most important issue now is...

Which one is extra?

'Trebellum spoke about the southwest corner before, so that's where he is. We can probably deduce the other corners as well…'

Ruby did the calculations and came to a conclusion.

He looked towards the southeast corner where he had been standing.

There, a stiff figure, its face obscured, stood silently, hugging its knees.

This person just patted him on the shoulder and completed the "shift change" with him.

That's the person who snuck in!

Chapter 441 [The Unforgivable Sinner] × The Secret of the Divine Artifact

In urban legends, there is a psychic game called the Four-Player Game.

The specific gameplay involves finding four fearless friends to occupy four corners of the room.

Then, after turning off all the lights, starting with one person, tap the next person's shoulder in a clockwise order and switch places with them.

Following this logic, there should be a situation in the room where three people occupy a corner and one person is walking around, leaving one corner empty and preventing the game from continuing.

But sometimes...

There will also be situations where the game can continue.

That means there is now a "fifth person" in the room who has never been there before.

Ruby swallowed hard and silently activated the power of [Apocalypse]. The next moment, a parchment slowly appeared and unfolded between his palms.

one two three four……

There are six dots flashing on the parchment!

Ruby stared in astonishment at the parchment scroll, where near the point representing him, there were two points that almost overlapped!

"Who are these two people?!"

Ruby looked around blankly.

There's clearly no one here.

But the next moment, he realized what was happening. He looked up and went up one floor along the spiral staircase.

There must be two people hiding in the upper floors, almost overlapping with him!

Ruby stared at it for a long time.

The stairwell was pitch black, and there seemed to be nothing there.

But he knew it in his heart.

Someone must be hiding there, quietly watching him!

He remained silent, like a hunter waiting for his prey to make a mistake.

Ruby shook his head, putting the unexpected discovery aside for the time being.

There is another problem right now.

There are six dots on the parchment. If you remove the two people upstairs, and remove him and the other three, then there are none left.

That is,

The "person" in the southeast corner was not included in the Book of Revelation...

Ruby's eye twitched as he looked towards the southeast corner.

The person crouched in the corner, head down, exuding a sinister atmosphere. Their skin was unusually pale, and their face was hidden in the shadows, as if absorbing all the already dim light, making their face invisible.

It's too cold here.

The oppressive, damp chill in the air seemed to seep into Ruby's bones, causing him to shiver involuntarily.

The side effects of the [Revelation] have left him with almost one foot in the realm of [Absolute].

This also exacerbated the fear and repression that Rubi experienced under such immense pressure.

He unconsciously began to let his mind wander:
