Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Dia shook her head and calmly looked at the devastated jungle along the way.

Starting from this direction, we should be able to return to the place where Morel first encountered Neferpitou.

Judging from the fact that Nefertiti hasn't yet learned how to use the Big Four banks, Ant Nest is probably still in its early stages.

Then,

The King of Ants, Meruem, may not have been born yet!

Although we don't know where Chairman Netero has gone, if we can deal with the Chimera Ant King before him, things will be much simpler from here on out.

With that in mind, Dia had already made her decision.

He looked at Norb and Poxon:

"I need to check the nest of that chimera ant. If the nest is full of beings of this level, then we will have to ask the international community for help and request the use of weapons of mass destruction!"

Poxon nodded without hesitation.

She always did whatever Dia said, without caring what the other person actually wanted to do.

Norb, on the contrary, hesitated briefly.

He certainly understood what Dia was saying and realized the importance of exploring the anthill.

but.

The ferocious aura Neferpitou unleashed at the entrance just now really gave him a fright!

This is almost at the level of psychological trauma.

Norb didn't understand.

Why did Dia still have the courage to venture deep into the monster's lair after facing such a terrifying creature?

What if it really is filled with those terrifying monsters from before?

Whether he lives or dies is not important.

He's in his current state, but what if he drags Dia down at a crucial moment?

Moreover, the seriously injured Mo Laowu is still in his [Four-Dimensional Apartment], so it's really not suitable to take him on any more dangerous missions...

After thinking it over and over, Norb shook his head:

"I can't go. I don't know if you can tell, but right now, I don't have the courage to face a monster of that level again."

“If you’re not in a hurry, we can go back and rest first, and take Mo Laowu to the hospital for emergency treatment. Then we can come back and find an opportunity to explore the ant nest.”

This suggestion is also reasonable.

But Dia knew very well that the Ant King was a powerful enemy for whom time could not be wasted.

So he grabbed Poxon's hand and said bluntly:

"You take Mo Laowu to the emergency room first, and Boke and I will go."

"You...that's too dangerous!"

Norb stared in astonishment at Dia, who insisted on going to the anthill, completely bewildered as to what the other was in such a hurry for.

Dia simply waved her hand, leaving behind the words "We won't die," and strode forward through the destroyed jungle.

Chapter 480 The Premature Ant King × Gravity

This is different from what Nob said.

Unlike them, Netero did not conduct investigations in the NGL Autonomous Region, but instead returned to the Republic of Localio after a certain turning point.

Almost at the same time that Morel and Neferpitou were engaged in a life-or-death struggle.

Nitero crossed the Miyala Mountains, which separate the two countries, alone, and arrived at a little-known small city called Dori.

On a flat rooftop (as shown in the picture below), a man sits casually.

Seemingly sensing someone approaching, the man turned his head thoughtfully.

I saw Chairman Netero, who was silent and unnoticed.

"Yo, President."

Kim didn't seem surprised that someone could find him, and greeted Netero with a smile.

Or rather, he wasn't surprised that Netero was able to find him.

For one of the greatest hunters of all time, finding someone couldn't be easier.

Netero stroked his beard, walked behind King, and sighed with a touch of melancholy:

"I'm really getting old. In the old days, I could walk right up to people before they even noticed me."

"That 'other party' shouldn't include me. To be fair, Chairman, your 'entanglement' is more stable than it was more than ten years ago."

Jin calmly gazed at the distant horizon.

Time has not only brought Nitero aging, but also experience and unparalleled skill, like two sides of a coin.

A strong wind swept across the rooftops, ruffling Netero's white beard and the hem of his golden robe. The afternoon sunlight seemed to freeze in this serene moment.

Netero chuckled softly:

“You look a lot like me when I was young, almost as bad as I did back then. What about Pariston?”

"If you think it's a little short, then it's a little short, old man."

Instead of taking the initiative to argue, Kim turned around and denied something else:

“Pariston wasn’t with me.”

"Now or all along?"

Netero asked with a chuckle, his face showing he knew everything.

"Tsk..."

Jin clicked his tongue unhappily and reached out to grab his hat:

"What a cunning old man... right now."

"That kid won't see me now..."

Netero chuckled strangely.

"Like a primary school student who loses a fight but gets sullen because the teacher favors someone else... Remember to quote that line to Pariston next time you see him."

Jin glanced speechlessly at the childish guy beside him.

At that moment, he seemed to vaguely understand the breakdown of Doomian and Qiduo.

"He probably didn't have a strong desire to go to the New World, did he?"

Nitro continued to press:

"Wouldn't your chances of success be lower if you partnered with him than if you did it yourself?"

Jin replied:

"If I have more time, say another year or two, theoretically that's how it should be."

"In other words, the situation has become so tense that even you feel it's too late."

Nitro said.

Jin nodded:

"Although I didn't act with the principle of 'the faster the better,' some things have indeed developed in a way that has exceeded my expectations."

"Not only me, but even your son, Pariston, and even Chido's father, all have this inexplicable feeling of being extremely anxious."

Jin narrowed his eyes and said incisively:

"It's almost as if there's an invisible force sticking into their backsides, making them run desperately toward the Dark Continent, something they themselves didn't even realize."

"Oh?"

Netero looked at the hunter before him, perhaps the most astonishing hunter in the last hundred years besides Dia, and asked curiously:

"If that feeling really exists, don't you feel it?"

"That's the scary part, I feel that way too..."

Jin placed his right hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat, which seemed to be a fraction of a beat faster than usual.

"Two weeks ago, I went to the International Navigation Bureau to apply for the qualification to explore the New World, but I was rejected at the first stage."

"Why?"

"Educational background".

Netero couldn't help but chuckle and laugh, which made King even more annoyed:

"Those office workers don't even put on an act."

“I haven’t been to school for a long time, I don’t even have a primary school diploma. They filled in prenatal education for my education and then said that my education level was not up to standard.”

"But it's the same. Even graduating from elementary school isn't enough, high school isn't enough, and even PhDs will be rejected. Maybe only someone like Qiduo can pass the education hurdle, but even after passing this hurdle, there's another one."

Jin sighed:

"Actually, I should have realized this a long time ago. Applying now is a complete waste of time."

"But at that time I was like I had lost my mind, and I applied without thinking, which wasted my time."

Nitro continued:

"This isn't normal, is it?"

"Correct."

Jin suddenly shut his mouth, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long pause, he slowly said:

"It's not normal, but... it's quite common."
