Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 214 Jin's Decision

The Shadow Tower did not cause much of a stir.

After all, very few people know about the situation.

Meanwhile, Baal and the others gathered information on various secret realms, hoping to see if anyone else had made similar discoveries.

However, they had less money and couldn't gather intelligence as quickly as Jin.

With Jin spending lavishly, he collected a great deal of information about the secret realms.

First, the daily limit for the number of secret realms has been basically determined, which is fifty.

The maximum number of players in a dungeon is no more than fifty.

Some dungeons have become fixed, namely those that require combat, and they are all kinds of beasts, beasts that have mastered Nen.

There are usually one to five special dungeon instances every day.

Special secret realms inhabited by intelligent beings, puzzle-solving types, "paranormal" types, and combat types, etc.

The "rewards" of these special dungeons are different.

You can obtain some special items from it, not limited to spirit crystals and various divine creations, or materials that do not exist in reality.

This also includes tickets to Sky Arena.

Based on several days of observation, Jin has confirmed that these secret realms will no longer be upgraded.

It's settled now.

The true "Greater Rift" is the Shadow Tower.

The Shadow Tower, a labyrinth of many mazes.

Jin believes that it wouldn't be surprising if some kind of dungeon hunter appeared in the future.

This is a truly world-changing force, and even King had to admire what Lucci had demonstrated.

In the past few days, some teams have naturally started trying to conquer the labyrinth within the Shadow Tower.

However, information about the Shadow Tower was kept very secret, and only a small number of adventurers knew about it.

However, Kim probably won't be able to keep it a secret for long.

After all, some people in the Adventurers' Guild have already spent a lot of money collecting tickets.

Today, Kim is going to see Lucci.

As for Lucci, he remained in the Grail Palace.

It can be said that he spends most of his time here now, even when he's cultivating.

Alternatively, we could go to the Basen rainforest to set things up.

His cultivation has now reached a bottleneck, and external aids can no longer help him with his cultivation.

He spends most of his time practicing "Iron Block" to unblock his entire body with Qi.

The immense life energy allows Lucci to still look like a young man even without using Transmutation, even though he's already over thirty.

The practice of "iron blocks" can indeed slow down aging and extend lifespan.

This phenomenon is not only seen in Lucci, but also in Netero.

I wonder if Yang De has arrived at the Dark Continent yet?

"Hmm!" Lucci suddenly noticed that the Holy Grail had lit up.

"This probability has also occurred?" Lucci sensed it and instantly understood the reason.

It turns out that a Nen user died in the secret realm, and there were remnants of their Nen even after death.

Unfortunately, after death, the mind is essentially a collection of "emotions," and it will inevitably be absorbed by the Holy Grail, leaving you with nothing to do but be absorbed by it.

It became the power of the Holy Grail.

"The lingering thoughts after death can be described as the vengeful spirit's obsession, but unfortunately, they cannot last long."

Unless it's like Kuroro's ability to absorb post-death powers into his own, they will disappear after the "goal" is achieved.

Just like Neferpitou wanted to kill Gon, of course, Neferpitou's Death Thought would be useless against the enhanced and grown Gon. Assuming that Neferpitou's Death Thought could kill Gon, it would disappear after killing Gon and would not exist forever.

"Compared to ordinary emotions, the emotions achieved through these post-death thoughts are much richer, provide more to the Holy Grail, and these things can also be utilized."

These are also "memories," which can allow the Holy Grail to create a more "vivid" existence.

"Artificial humans" may soon be a reality.

This is just the beginning.

Lucci believes that once the base number is large, it will only increase.

The entire human world is his "nurturing ground," and they will all help him grow.

With gradual development, he will eventually conquer the Dark Continent by mastering immense power.

At least Lucci felt that with his current strength, he could easily make his way in the Dark Continent.

Even the five great calamities don't seem so terrible to Lucci now.

Even with the Zoldyck family's "omnipotent wish-granting machine" yet to appear, Lucci isn't too worried, not to mention the limits of its rules.

Now that he possesses the Holy Grail, he can also be said to have mastered the "rules".

Lucci looked at the various secret realms again, and then checked on the seven people.

He soon received a message from his secretary.

Kim Freecss wants to see him.

"Haha!" Lucci smiled knowingly. He wasn't surprised that Jin wanted to see him. In the current situation, even if Greed Island were to be released, it wouldn't really matter.

Of course, Lucci was still quite curious about Greed Island and wanted to use the knowledge from Greed Island as nourishment for the Sky Arena.

Lucci disappeared into the Holy Grail Palace.

It was still in that martial arts hall.

Compared to the somewhat unkempt King, Lucci actually appears much younger in front of King.

"Long time no see, Kim."

Lucci did not show any unfamiliarity.

This made Jin realize that this person might have been watching him all along.

"It has indeed been a long time since I last saw Examiner Lucci." Unlike many others, he did not address Lucci as "Sir."

Despite Lucci's formidable and mysterious strength, he did not subdue King.

"Tell me, what's the purpose of your visit today?" Lucci said casually.

Jin tried his best to appear normal in front of Lucci, but in reality, he was shocked. Kneeling in front of Lucci, he could feel a kind of "suppression" coming from Lucci.

He had never experienced this feeling before, only when he first saw that enormous magical dragon.

That is a kind of "submission" of lower organisms to higher organisms.

Lucci gave King the feeling that he was no longer human, but some kind of higher being.

He had experienced this feeling with another person, Netero, the chairman of the Hunter Association, but it was nowhere near as strong as it was with Lucci in front of him.

The current metal element is not yet one of the twelve earthly branches, or rather, the current twelve earthly branches have not yet fully appeared, but the candidates that Netero uses for "play" have actually been slowly emerging.

As for the metal element of the "Pig" (亥), if it weren't for Lu Qi's influence, it would probably have become one of the twelve earthly branches in a few years.

Despite the "suppression," Jin was no ordinary person and tried his best to resist this feeling, which was also like a kind of cultivation.

Then he slowly began to explain his purpose.

The original plan was to sell Greed Island game consoles later.

But now King has decided to "incorporate" Greed Island into the secret realm.

These decisions were made together with my companions.
