Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World

Meeting directly in the capital would be too conspicuous, so they chose to meet in the coastal city of Nanami, which is closer to the capital.

Yingren Kingdom is located on the edge of the six continents, beyond which lies a vast and boundless sea.

Most people don't know what lies at the end of this ocean; only a few know that at the end of the ocean lies the Dark Continent.

Perhaps it's because this place is geographically closest to the Dark Continent.

So strange things often happen here, or strange things appear.

Among them, the most well-known is the famous local mirage.

Sea markets were a type of activity that occurred in many cities of Yingren Kingdom, just like in other coastal areas.

Every morning, fishing boats go out to sea to catch seafood and bring it to the market to sell.

Fishing boats can be roughly divided into two types according to the time they go out to sea: one is short-haul fishing, which is usually a small boat that goes out to fish on the same day and returns on the same day.

Another type is the long-haul voyage, which is generally larger and the return time is uncertain, usually around a week.

Longer voyages make it easier to catch rare ingredients and items, but they are also more dangerous.

If any special items are caught, they will be sold to the local auction house, where they will be appraised and then auctioned off.

What's most special is that the seafood here is unusual, and strange items often appear.

【Seven Seas】possesses the largest bay in the Kingdom of Yingren, with an extremely large scale of sea city, and has also been rated as one of the famous tourist attractions of the six continents.

After Lynn arrived, he first met up with his two apprentices who had arrived earlier, and then, while waiting for Gail and the others, he disguised himself and went for a stroll.

There are many strange and unusual products in [Haishi].

It seems that people can see anything related to the ocean here.

There are also unique local activities, such as "seashell gambling".

Fishermen would gather the seashells they caught and sell them at the sea market, selling them in a gambling-like manner, similar to gambling on stones.

If you're lucky, you might find a high-value pearl, which could be a meteoric rise to wealth; conversely, it could plunge you into despair.

Lynn was just browsing casually and had no interest in gambling on seashells.

However, as he passed a stall, his attention fell on a shell that was slightly larger than the others and had a dazzling appearance.

He could sense unusual energy fluctuations within it.

The shell was priced at 200 million jin, but Lynn bought it without batting an eye.

He is now incredibly wealthy; 2 million is just a drop in the ocean. If you changed the number from 10,000 to 100 million, it would be more accurate.

After buying it, Lynn did not open it on the spot. Instead, he took Leorio and Kurapika to a secluded corner, placed the "Nothing from Something" door sticker on the wall, and then went inside.

Since acquiring the "Create Something from Nothing" door sticker, he basically no longer needs to stay in hotels.

living room.

Lynn didn't even have to exert any force before the shell was pulled open, the upper and lower shells were bent 180 degrees, and it was difficult to put it back into its original shape.

In an instant, dazzling, colorful light emerged from the shell, a common characteristic of shells—their interiors are multicolored.

However, the scene inside surprised the three of them even more.

Leorio's expression turned serious, and he subconsciously asked in confusion, "What is this?"

Inside the glossy giant clam, there was half-shrunken, gradually desiccated shell meat, along with some similar pieces of seafood.

A blood-red pearl, slightly smaller than a fist, sat quietly among a pile of "mummified corpses," radiating an eerie yet captivating color.

Ordinary pearls are usually white or purple, but this blood-red pearl looks like it's filled with blood, with a deep red color throughout.

Kurapika exclaimed in surprise, "It's a blood-red pearl?"

Lynn muttered to himself, feeling that the pearl seemed a bit sinister.

Instead of attacking directly, he sent Gengar out to take a look.

It makes it easier to identify some strange and unusual items.

"Gengui?"

Gengar looked around, even licking the blood-red pearl a few times, before finally drawing a conclusion.

This pearl can replenish itself by absorbing the life force of surrounding creatures.

The richer the blood color, the more life force it has absorbed.

Sure enough, the strange appearance inside the shell was caused by this blood-red pearl, which could absorb life force.

If we only see the cost, does it have any other effects?

Lynn studied it further and discovered the use of the blood-red pearl.

Simply replenish its life force regularly, and the wearer's aging process can be slowed down.

In other words, it transfers the life force of another person to the wearer, making it a rather sinister treasure.

This... seems quite useful. To exaggerate a bit, it's like transferring someone else's lifespan to oneself, but it's not a one-to-one ratio, so the efficiency isn't that high.

Even so, this is a treasure that countless powerful and wealthy people dream of.

Keep it for now; you might need it later.

Chapter 212 Three members of the Satan Clan! This is your graveyard!

Lynn stored the Crimson Pearl in the Gate of Babylon, and then met with Gal and the others that evening.

Lots of people.

The Reges royal family put in a lot of effort for this attack, dispatching an elite force of dozens of Nen users.

It also includes assistance from other forces such as the Hunter Association.

Just as the Kingdom of Yingren could seek help from the Seven Deadly Sins and the Satan Clan, the Reges Royal Family could also utilize its own connections.

Without exception, they were all experts, elite talents, at least B-level; those of lower levels were not suitable to participate in the attack.

The team was led by the A+ rank Nen user with fire-type abilities, and another A+ rank user.

If we add Bisji and Lynn, these are four A+ level powerhouses, whose high-end combat strength has already surpassed that of the Yingren Kingdom.

This is the idea of ​​the Reges royal family.

What they didn't know was that during this time, Lynn had grown into an S-level, and even had several A+ level subordinates.

Lynn was fairly satisfied with the preparations made by the Reges royal family.

At least they took into account the involvement of other forces, so they dispatched enough personnel.

According to Gluttony's report, Yingren Kingdom seems to have anticipated this and, in order to prevent an attack, has summoned Pride and Greed, two of the Seven Deadly Sins, who are currently in the palace.

The possibility that other forces were present cannot be ruled out.

During the discussion, Lynn also gained a better understanding of Gail and the others' plans.

Comparatively speaking, the moral standards of the Reges royal family are higher than those of the Yingren Kingdom.

Although it was for revenge, they did not intend to harm the people by creating opportunities like the Satanic tribe; instead, they went straight to the point and launched a night raid on the palace.

The time was set for 2 a.m. two days later.

Two days passed incredibly quickly, in the blink of an eye.

Under the night.

As planned, the group split into two teams and launched an attack on the palace, which quickly caused chaos at the two entrances to the palace.

Reges's side and the Yingren Kingdom's side were fighting together.

The roles of offense and defense have reversed.

Although both are attacks, this attack by Reges is fundamentally different from the previous attack launched by the Yingren Kingdom.

Yingren Kingdom has a clear objective: to kill Amy, prevent her from becoming the new queen, and incidentally weaken the power of the Reges royal family.

Reges had no particular goal, only one purpose: revenge. So they didn't need to consider anything else; all they had to do was fight.

Because all sides had the advantage in combat power, Reges quickly gained the upper hand until the reinforcements from Yingren Kingdom arrived.

Peng!

Gail's face was icy cold. Her right hand transformed into the shape of a black venomous snake, its fangs precisely biting the ninja's neck, injecting a powerful paralyzing toxin.

In just a moment, the latter's eyes rolled back and he collapsed.

Before Gai Lu could catch her breath, a crimson arrow of blood shot towards her and pierced her right hand before she could react.

Gai Lu's pupils contracted, and as she retreated rapidly, her snake-like eyes fixed on the three figures emerging from the depths of the entrance.

It was none other than the three from the Satan tribe: Sitang, Yingwu, and Hejian.

"Heh, the Twelve Earthly Branches truly live up to their name." He grinned, the blood-red birthmark on his right cheek making his smile rather ugly.

His arrow was aimed at Gail's throat just now, and the fact that Gail was able to avoid it is enough to demonstrate his strength.

That's fine too. If he didn't have the strength, he wouldn't have had enough of killing.

Immediately, a strong sense of death surged from his body. With a wave of his hand, the blood flowing on the field seemed to come alive, surging and transforming into scarlet arrows in mid-air, shooting towards the crowd.

The sudden attack caught many who were not strong enough to defend themselves in time. Arrows of blood pierced through their bodies, and many were hit and died on the spot.

In just one round, more than a dozen people fell.

A death wish?!

Gail frowned. There was only one kind of person who could use the Death Thought so freely: the Satanic!

The Satan race is small in number, but each member is quite powerful. Moreover, those three are probably not the weakest members of the Satan race, but rather among the most powerful.

I never imagined that Yingren Kingdom could hire someone like that... Is it because someone from the Satan Clan died in the last attack?

So, does the Satanic race intend to use this opportunity to exact revenge?

This attack caused even more blood to flow on the field. As expected, the blood surged towards He Jian, like a huge blood-red water ball floating in the air, a horrifying sight.

This blood could become the weapon that takes their lives at any moment!

This is the power of the Demon Child that He Jian possesses.

He can manipulate his own or others' blood to achieve purposes such as offense and defense.

You can use your own blood freely, but excessive blood loss can be life-threatening, while using someone else's blood requires meeting certain conditions.

It can be either the blood of a dead person, i.e., unclaimed blood, or blood extracted from a wounded person at close range using the power of death. Of course, this will be affected by the difference in strength between the two parties.

The old man's gaze remained unwavering as he glanced at the altar, losing interest once Lynn was not present.

Keep killing.

Lynn will appear as long as the killing continues.

Reggies' side, of course, would not allow them to continue killing.

Those two are probably not much weaker than me, and that old man... Bisji's expression was cold. After analyzing the situation of the three, she kicked diagonally downwards with her toes, and the sound was loud.

In an instant, several stone slabs shattered, and countless fragments of stone, carrying dust and smoke, drifted forward, directly obscuring the three people's vision.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, most of Reges's side retreated, as the ensuing battle was not something they could participate in.

Those who remained were at least A- grade, so their numbers were small.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Kenny, another A+ rank Nen user who uses fire, gathered his hands in front of his chest through the smoke and dust, and at that moment, his powerful Nen energy transformed into scalding flames and burst forth.

A terrifying pillar of fire pierced through the smoke, landing on the blood barrier like a fire dragon, evaporating a large amount of blood, and then striking the empty ground with undiminished momentum.

There was no sign of anyone, only the shrine standing silently in the background.

Nobody here?

Kenny raised an eyebrow and instinctively stepped back.

Almost instantly, two shadow tigers, resembling tigers, sprang out from the shadows where he had just been standing, roaring as they lunged at him.

Kenny quickly raised his hand and released flames, destroying the two Shadow Tigers.
