In Kent City, the Ancient Ganyu Kingdom, the hotel suite owned by the Hunter Association was filled with people.
"Ah, are everyone here?" Food hunter Men Qi sat carelessly on a chair, glanced around and exclaimed, "It seems that this year's hunter exam is very lively!"
"Because this year's exam content includes island hunting battles, more people must be arranged to follow the candidates closely." Assistant to the president of the Hunter Association, a bean-faced man wearing a suit explained while holding the information in his hand.
As the name suggests, his entire head looks like an enlarged mung bean, so everyone calls him Mr. Bean-faced Man.
"Okay, you continue chatting, I'm going to give out number tags to the candidates." The bean-faced man said and turned around and left the room.
At this time, Aisia, Matos and other professional hunters were leaning against the wall. They were all wearing the same black suit, tie and white shirt, which was considered the uniform attire of their exam assistants.
"Wow, who made this suggestion?" Menqi was constantly looking at the people sitting next to her as she spoke, which were all the examiners in charge of the hunter test this time.
"It's me." A man with a punk head and orange glasses smiled and narrowed his eyes into thin slits. "I will set the questions for the third and fourth rounds of the test this time."
The entire hunter examination adopts an elimination system. Candidates need to go through rounds of elimination tests until the final passer is selected and issued a professional hunter's license.
Obtaining this license is only the first step to becoming a professional hunter. The second step is to learn to read.
Of course, Nian is a secret that only a few people in this world know. Unless ordinary people are gifted or have other opportunities, they can only come into contact with the secret of Nian by passing the formal hunter examination. In other words, mastering the power that only a few people in this world have.
There are billions of people in the world, but there are only more than 600 professional hunters registered in the Hunter Association. Together with some other unregistered scattered ability users, the number will not exceed a thousand at most.
After all, a hunter's license is very valuable. It can use 95% of the public facilities in the world for free, and it also provides VIP treatment. For example, the airship tickets for Althea and Thomas to come to Kent City are free first-class seats. They don't need to spend a penny, and they can be booked at any time, so there is no need to compete with others for tickets.
What's more, a person with a hunter's license does not need to be legally responsible if he causes the death of others during his mission.
To put it bluntly, the world of professional hunters is a place where strength is the most important thing and where the weak eat the strong.
When Althea first traveled through time, it took her some time to get used to it. The world she is in now and the world she once lived in have completely different worldviews.
In short, no matter what, anyone with the ability to awaken thoughts will pass the hunter test and become a professional hunter. Therefore, there will not be too many individual people registered outside. One thousand people are already too many for her to count.
As for why the practice of Nian has not been popularized, it is naturally because if everyone mastered powerful power, it would be unimaginable what the world would become. Therefore, the hunter test was created to screen those who are truly suitable to be hunters. Teach them how to read and use it, and become the help of the association.
On the contrary, it is impossible for this world to be without people with telekinesis abilities who use their power to kill innocent people indiscriminately. At this time, bounty hunters will take action.
"My name is Libo, a one-star bounty hunter and prison warden for felons." The punk-headed examiner introduced himself again.
"No wonder." After everyone heard that he was a bounty hunter, they felt that it was normal for him to bring up the "isolated island hunting" scenario as a test question.
Having to face and deal with dangerous enemies at all times, bounty hunters are the most dangerous of all professional hunters.
"What about you, what questions were asked this time?" Libo asked again with a smile, "Who was in charge of the first round of testing?"
"It's me, Satz, the relic hunter." The man in the purple suit on Menqi's left spoke, but interestingly, he only had a beard and no mouth, and he didn't know where the sound came from. "As for the content of the exam, I think everyone will know it soon."
Aisiya watched curiously as the examiners exchanged information. The last ones to introduce themselves were Menqi and her assistant Buhaci. Both of them were food hunters and were jointly responsible for the second exam, but she said the exam questions had not yet been decided.
"Actually, I have a concern." Satz, the examiner of the first test, suddenly said, "Among the candidates this time, have you noticed that No. 44 is the guy who seriously injured the examiner last year? .”
As he spoke, he pointed to the surveillance screen in the room, which was broadcasting the arrival status of the candidates in real time, as well as the scene of the bean-faced people handing out number tags to everyone in the order of arrival.
At this time, the underground tunnel at the examination location was already crowded with people, but candidate No. 44 happened to appear in the corner of the camera, because he was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with flamboyant red hair, and his face. The clown makeup with stars and water droplets on it, as well as the white vampire-like skin and dangerous aura, stood out among the ordinary candidates with ordinary faces.
"Wow, he's very handsome." Althea couldn't help but say, causing the atmosphere in the room to become silent for a few seconds.
Everyone looked in her direction, and Matos beside her couldn't help but cover her face and hold her forehead. The expression on his face that was hard to explain seemed to say: I specifically asked you to come here for a mission, not to catch handsome guys! ! He is really tired of having such subordinates!
"I think he's handsome too, but this kind of man is still too dangerous." The food hunter Men Qi was the first to speak and broke the silence. He also echoed Aisia's words. Who said that among the examiners here, only Men Qi is a girl? , is still a beautiful girl in her early twenties, so naturally she is the only one who can resonate with Althea.
"Menqi, your strength isn't bad either." Li Bo, the examiner in charge of the third and fourth tests, chuckled, "The youngest one-star hunter in history."
"Oh, he's not my type." Menqi crossed his legs and explained, "Compared to this lunatic, I still prefer the gentle one."
"Yes, Menqi, your personality is too fiery." Buha, who is also a food hunter, stabbed at him, "Only gentle and good-natured men are suitable for you."
"Asshole, Bu Ha Ci! What do you mean, do you say I have a bad character?!" Menqi's forehead was throbbing with veins.
The topic went off track for some reason, but someone finally realized this and tried to get everyone's attention back.
"In short, there are such dangerous people among this year's candidates, so everyone must be careful." The examiner of the first test, the ruin hunter Saji, said.
"Oh, by the way, I'll give you another piece of information." The bounty hunter Li Bo also said, "It is said that the people who beat the enemy and the Hakka family this time will also come to take the hunter exam."
"Wow, it's so exciting. No wonder the examiners this year are all star hunters." Menqi said in surprise, "What are they killers doing here to take the exam?"
Satz: "Probably a hunter's license is required for assassination missions."
The four examiners here, except for Menqi's assistant Buha Ci, the other three are all one-star hunters, who have made outstanding contributions among professional hunters. In other words, they are the best among hunters.
"After all, the association doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes as last year. It would be too embarrassing for our examiners." Satz added, "Okay, it's almost time. We should arrange the manpower for the next test."
He said, looking at the associate hunters around him who were wearing uniforms, and said, "After the candidates exit the underground tunnel according to the established plan, you will follow up and observe randomly, and then score and evaluate those candidates according to the table until the final test. No problem?"
"No problem." Everyone in the room replied one after another.
"That's OK." After Satz finished speaking, he seemed a little uneasy after thinking about something, and continued to explain, "Especially those dangerous people must be vigilant."
Quite fittingly, as soon as he finished speaking, a scream that resounded through the tunnel came from the large monitor screen, as well as a voice that sounded very sexy to Althea.
'You have to apologize properly if you bump into someone~~'
The screen turned and showed a popular-looking candidate who had his arm broken off.
"Is that No. 44, who can't help but kill?" Satz frowned, "Who will be responsible for this No. 44?"
After he asked, the room fell silent. No one wanted to follow such a dangerous candidate closely, and they might even lose their lives.
"How about you come, I'll leave the number 44 to you." Menqi suddenly spoke and winked at Aisia.
There is no other reason, just because Althea just said that the other party is handsome.
All the assistant examiners present immediately cast sympathetic glances.
Althea:......
No, no, no, although the other party is handsome, it is unnecessary. If this is the case, how can she fish?
"Ahem..." She coughed slightly and suggested, "Why not draw lots randomly, it's the fairest."
"Okay, okay." Menqi shrugged, with 'How could you give up this great opportunity' written all over his face.
Now that the examiner has made the decision, everyone has decided to draw lots when they need to follow the candidates one-on-one. Now, when there are more candidates than examiners, we will temporarily adapt to the situation.
"Okay, it's time." After finally setting all the details, Satz, who was in charge of the first test, stood up first. "I'm going to the examination room first, see you later."
…
"What to do? How to arrange manpower now?"
After the four examiners left the room one after another to prepare the test content, only the assistant examiners were left.
"It's not about adapting to circumstances."
"Oh, it's just a matter of improvisation. Who is going to be No. 44? We have to send someone. This is the guy named by the examiner."
Everyone fell silent.
Not to mention, at least half of these hunters are parallel imports, otherwise they would not apply for such a boring task.
Those who are truly capable and ambitious are independent hunters who shine in their own understanding like those examiners.
"Let's draw lots."
Finally, the examiner Ma Shita, who was affiliated with the Hunter Association Examination Committee, broke the silence, "Only the two people mentioned by the examiner just now will be drawn. No. 44 and No. 99."
"Why is there suddenly another number ninety-nine?"
Ma Shitai: "I just received the latest news from the association. Candidate No. 99 has confirmed his identity. Killua is a member of the number one assassin family that requires special attention."
When everyone heard this, they all gasped again.
"Damn it, if I had known there were so many perverts in this hunter exam, I wouldn't have come."
"Okay, stop barking. Time is running out. Start pumping now."
A few minutes later……
Matos' face turned green when he looked at the No. 44 lottery in his hand, and he looked at Althea beside him as if asking for help.
"Stop looking." Althea twitched her lips slightly and showed him the white paper in her hand, with 'ninety-nine' clearly written on it.
Matos:…
Matos looked up to the sky and sighed: "Oh my God, God is going to destroy my team!"
"Hahaha, let's go." Everyone immediately patted Matos's shoulders happily, with faces filled with joy, "Brother, take care!"
Matos:…
Matos was so sad and angry that he subconsciously wanted to seek comfort from Althea, who was next to him and had the same illness. As a result, when I turned around, I saw that she was mindlessly playing with her phone again.
"Asia!"
"Ah, what's wrong?" Althea looked at the phone screen and raised her lips slightly, because her cheap partner who said he had to take an exam and had no time to reply actually sent her another message.
[Magician:/Wrongful Baba]
[Aiyahaiya: What’s wrong? Do you miss me? Didn't you say you have an exam today? Why did you have time to send me a message? Did you not do well in the exam? Baby? 】
[Magician: No, it went very smoothly, but it was too smooth and a bit boring. It’s a shame I was looking forward to it so much yesterday~/Grudge]
After seeing the news, Althea immediately laughed out loud, feeling a little gloating about her misfortune.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you." Matos looked at the woman next to him who was looking at her cell phone speechlessly, "Let's go. If you don't leave, it will be too late. We have to arrive before the candidates..."
[Hey, my dear, why don’t you find something to do? For example, getting close to the examiner and teacher can increase your impression points. 】
[Magician: Hmm, what a suggestion~/Love]
"I know, I know." Althea reluctantly put down her phone, quickly walked out of the room and rushed to the location of the first test.
…
What she didn't expect was that fifteen minutes later, when Althea had just arrived at her destination examination room and had not had time to breathe, she received another text message from her cheap partner.
[Magician: The examiner said that if I get close to him again, he will disqualify me from the exam~/Grudge/Grudge]
Althea:......
What did you do to the examiner? ?
