Using the 'Come Together' spell card again, golden and white light led Ji Xing and his party of 15 people to land on the coastline, with the town of Shoufulabi in sight.
"That's over there...eh?"
Just when Kurapika was about to introduce the way, most people noticed a few other people standing by the beach, either wary or confused.
"they are……"
"The group of guys hired by Batra to join forces to monopolize spell cards."
"Are you trying to steal our cards?"
"BOOK!"
Kurapika, Gon Killua, and Zetsu Zeira immediately called out their card collections and made defensive gestures with spell cards.
The four strangers standing on the coast were startled, showing surprise. They raised their hands and said, "Finally we've waited for you. We don't have any ill intentions. We just have something to discuss with you. We won't call out the card collection book. Please believe us." Sincerity!"
Kurapika and the others looked at each other, focusing on Kurapika first, and then on Bisji and Ji Xing. When Ji Xing was in the team, he should be the least worried about sneak attacks...
Seeing that Ji Xing did not express his position, Kurapika walked up the first few steps and asked, "What do you want?"
Four people trotted over from the opposite side. The leader introduced himself: "I am Nikkens. I believe you should know how we are clearing the game."
He nodded to Kurapika, then looked at Zetsu Zeela: "Our three groups of players should be the closest to clearing the game. To be honest, we have collected a total of 88 types of cards, and we should be slightly ahead of you two. Let’s form a group.”
"Huh? So many?" Xiaojie exclaimed softly.
"There are already 88 types?" Kurapika also said: "Then what are you doing now..."
"I'm not here to invite you to join, let alone to 'persuade'." Nikkens said with a smile: "Everyone is working hard to pass the game and compete fairly for the 50 billion reward. This time you are here for 'a Are you from Ping's coastline?"
Kurapika guessed the other party's intention: "Fair competition?"
"Yes." Nikkens nodded: "The card limit of 'One Ping of Coastline' is only 3. If you use the spell card to 'copy' and copy two more, then we have no hope of collecting them anyway. Conflicts will inevitably break out.”
At this point, he shook his hands: "Of course, I don't mean any threats. I just hope that everyone will not use this method to hinder each other, and just simply race."
A tall young man next to him, wearing glasses and with small white hair, said: "In fact, we can also 'occupy tasks' alternately, let fifteen people rotate, and keep you out of the task..."
"Ganshu." Nikkens frowned.
"I know." Gan Shu smiled friendly and took a step forward: "Just to give you an example, I have been playing this game for five years and I am tired of playing it. I really hope there will be a result as soon as possible, no matter who it is. Cleared, everything is fine.”
"I understand." Kurapika looked at the people around him and said, "If you don't have any other opinions, it's up to me to decide. We only need two pieces of 'one ping of coastline'. Juezi Jue and I Get one for each person, and you can fight for the remaining card quota yourself.
But as the price for our concession, you have the card 'Archangel's Breath', right? Please let us make a copy, this will not speed up our collection, we are going to use it. "
Melody looked over with some emotion.
Nikkens said: "This way... I will discuss it with everyone when I go back, and everyone will agree. Now we only have return cards with us. I hope you understand."
Kurapika nodded, while Gan Shu asked curiously: "Only you and Juezu Juela need it? There are a few here who probably don't belong to your two teams... I'm sorry, this is not distrust, it's just these few... I haven’t seen him very often.”
He half-raised his head and looked at Ji Xing, who stood over two meters tall and stood out among the team.
This sentence obviously refers to Ji Xing.
Of course I haven't seen him before. If I hadn't met by chance, I wouldn't have imagined that I wouldn't have met such a powerful person in the game... Piyanna felt a little proud and lucky in her heart.
"Ji Xing doesn't need a card." Xiaojie said directly: "He is just helping to gather the number of people!"
"Ji Xing?" Gan Shu seemed to be particularly interested in Ji Xing and thought for a while before saying, "Speaking of which... this tall appearance reminds me of a story that was circulated more than two months ago.
According to those guys who often stare at the novice cabin, a monster came on the island, and with just a roar, it shocked everyone who was observing him from a distance, causing everyone to flee..."
"Isn't that proven to be a rumor? How could someone do that?" Nikkens laughed, laughing, unable to laugh anymore.
He and the other two companions looked at Kurapika and the others with blank expressions. Except for the two who made up the numbers, they all had expressions of inquiry and "You actually did that kind of thing after entering the game."
This is real? ! A roar can injure someone hundreds of meters away and a kilometer away? !
What is that? Doesn't that mean it can directly roar us to death in front of us? !
"It seems to be true." Gan Shu showed admiration, took two steps forward, faced Ji Xing and stretched out his hands respectfully: "Who are you?"
Ji Xing looked at him, shook his head and reached out to hold hands with him: "Ji Xing, one of the twelve branches of the Hunter Association, have you heard of it?"
"Ah." Gan Shu exclaimed softly, "Of course, that's a senior member of the association! It's just...it's been five years since I entered the game, and I haven't heard of your name, but anyway, it's great to have you here."
He held Ji Xing's hands tightly and said: "As more and more cards are collected, we are actually worried about what those 'killing players' will do, such as bomb monsters, scissor monsters... Those guys seem to be completely dedicated to killing people. It’s fun, but it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not interested in completing the game. It’s really troublesome to grab cards.”
"Oh? Are there any players who enjoy killing people?" Ji Xing said, "It's really outrageous."
"Indeed." Kenneth confirmed and said respectfully: "I didn't expect you to be the master of the twelve branches of the Hunter Association... But Gan Shu, dealing with those murderous players is also the only way for us to pass the level. Don't take responsibility, There’s no reason to shift the responsibility to the Twelve Branches, right?”
"Ah, that's not what I meant." Gan Shu quickly stopped his hand and nodded apologetically to Ji Xing.
'It's a bit strange. 'At the same moment, a trace of doubt flashed across the faces of Kurapika and Bisji, and their gazes paused briefly on Gan Shu.
His behavior...seems a little strange?
As for Gan Shu, who was apologizing on the surface, his heartbeat was unnaturally accelerated at this moment, but he controlled his emotional fluctuations with his strong self-control.
Turns out to be the twelve branches of the Hunter Association?
No wonder the man named Ji Xing in front of me has a completely different level from other telekinesis users. He is the biggest obstacle for me to clear the game!
It's not a coincidence at all, including blocking 15 people here this time was all done deliberately by him.
More than two months ago, he began to investigate the rumors about the roar that scared away more than a dozen people. Although those guys were so frightened when asked about it that they seemed to have seen ghosts and were incoherent, it was still enough for him to restore most of the facts... This Man, too strong.
Fortunately, although it was a little unexpected, the bomb was finally successfully planted on him. No one could detect it before it was activated. It detonated immediately after it was activated, which at least destroyed his combat effectiveness!
Among the others, the only ones that are difficult to deal with are Kurapika and Zetsu Zeira.
As a bomb demon himself, he backed away with a smile and said, "It's a request for help and a kind reminder. Everyone should be careful about those guys from the bomb demon."
"Don't be careful." Ji Xing said.
Bang——
As the words fell, a subtle muffled sound suddenly rose. A few people could see an afterimage passing by, while more people could only see Gan Shu's head suddenly turning into a top for some unknown reason!
His body did not move, but his head rotated more than ten times in an instant with his neck as the center! The glasses he was wearing were thrown away, and the smile on his face turned into confusion and sluggishness in the rotation, until he looked behind him and fell to the ground with the completely lifeless body!
The surrounding area was silent for two seconds.
"ah--!!"
Screams erupted.
"Ganshu?!"
"what happened?!"
"What happened?!"
Kenneth and the other three were shocked and alert. Xiaojie asked at the same time: "Why? Ji Xing?"
"Is he a bomb demon?" Kurapika made a judgment: "He used telekinesis to plant a bomb for Mr. Ji Xing while shaking hands?"
Melody danced to the beat with her hands: "As expected, I don't need to remind you that when that person shook hands with Mr. Ji Xing just now, his heartbeat was full of malice."
Bisji looked at the corpse on the ground, folded his arms and hummed: "Why are you seeking death? He could have been a good sparring opponent."
"That's true." Killua shook his head.
Piyanna swallowed and muttered: "We can't let people be prepared."
Did they... all see clearly? Juezi Juela could also make similar inferences based on the current situation, but he didn't see Ji Xing's movements at that moment!
Ji Xing's strength in destroying the twelve members of the Phantom Troupe on his own is undeniable, but how much progress have these children made compared to when Mr. Batra and I met them together? !
As for the two people who made up the numbers, they were already stunned. Kenneth and the other three were also stunned when they heard these conversations.
"Ganshu is the bomb demon?"
"This is impossible!"
"He has always been an important companion to us!"
"Furthermore, he is the one who is most wary of the Bomb Demon. He always reminds everyone to be careful..."
"You, what evidence do you have?!"
Whether he ignored Gan Shu with the bomb on his body or explained to the three people in front of him, it was a bit embarrassing for Ji Xing. He shook his head and said: "Let's go, hurry up and complete the mission."
At the same time, in the town of Shoufu Labi, bandits gathered in the tavern.
A man wearing a cartoon bear coat carefully adjusted his hood and nodded with satisfaction in the mirror: "Hey, that's it!"
A tall, strong man with squinting eyes behind him said with a smile: "Is it necessary...Jin?"
3k, there will be two more updates tomorrow, and it will still be late.
