Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 199 Entering the Secret Realm

These adventurers, despite having some strength, were no match for Silva.

Silva was blocking the way, waiting for Illumi's arrival. However, since they were in the middle of a river, Illumi had only just learned Nen and hadn't even started training in Transmutation yet, nor could he walk on water.

It will probably take some effort to enter the secret realm.

"Who are you? If you're not an adventurer, what's the point of stopping us?" The brief exchange was enough for them to see the difference in their abilities.

All he could think about was the famous martial artist in Kerry City.

Unfortunately, Silva was not a martial artist.

"You'll just need to wait a moment."

Upon hearing Silva's words, the adventurers' expressions all changed.

"Did the Red Dragons invite you?" one of the adventurers asked immediately.

A red dragon? What's that?

Silva looked puzzled.

Seeing Silva's expression, they knew that it wasn't someone the Red Dragon had sent.

The Red Dragon is not a single person, but a group of adventurers who named themselves the Red Dragon.

There are quite a few adventurers now, and naturally, they have started to form groups.

Furthermore, based on the members of the adventurers, most of them have now reached a consensus.

That is why very few people from various martial arts dojos become adventurers, as if it is a deliberate choice.

For some people who know Lucci, this is interpreted as an attempt to support another force, otherwise the Adventurers' Guild would not have existed.

Because of this speculation, the various martial arts schools did not actively intervene in the matter of the secret realm dungeon.

Being chosen as an adventurer is great, but not being chosen is no big deal.

Even the Conrad family didn't actively intervene.

The Red Dragon adventurer's team is currently the largest among all adventurer teams, and it also has a lot of funds.

Whether there is someone behind the scenes remains unknown.

However, the opponent's preparation was indeed far superior to that of many adventurers.

There's also plenty of money to hire servants to deliver the message.

At least half of the secret realms that appear every day now fall into the hands of the Red Dragons.

These adventurers mistakenly believed that Silva was a Nen master hired by the Red Dragon and was preventing other adventurers from entering the dungeon.

"Then why are you stopping us?"

If we can't win by fighting, then we can only try to negotiate.

Just then, the sound of a speedboat appeared again, indicating that adventurers were approaching.

It drove straight toward the person in the crack.

Silva naturally wanted to stop him.

"Stop!" Silva had already produced a Nen blast in his hand, and the power of his ki seemed quite terrifying.

The speedboat immediately stopped. There were also Nen users on board, though their strength was significantly different from the first group to arrive.

What happened?

While Silva was threatening the adventurers on the speedboat, several other adventurers nearby were planning to rush over.

This time, Silva showed no mercy and knocked him unconscious.

If he could, Silva wouldn't mind killing people directly, but unfortunately this is Kree City.

With his strength, he could simply kill someone and leave without much trouble, unless the higher-ups intervened.

And they wouldn't make things difficult for him just because of a few people.

I just didn't want things to get too complicated, since I'd be staying here for a while.

That's incredibly fast; it's definitely at the level of a 200-story building.

In Kerry City today, a person's strength is judged by the height of their apartment building.

Previously, even those who couldn't use Nen had a chance to reach the 200th floor, but now that's rarely possible. Basically, once you reach the 150th floor, you'll encounter mostly Nen masters.

The 200th floor is a huge dividing line.

I was initially thinking that with so many people, the other side wouldn't be able to react in time and we'd be able to get through.

Other speedboats arrived, but were forced to stop by Silba once again.

"Your behavior will not be recognized by the Adventurers' Guild." Someone tried to intimidate Silva by using the name of the Adventurers' Guild.

The relationship between the dungeon and Lucci was already considered a fact by this group of adventurers, even though it was indeed true.

It took about seventeen minutes for Illumi to arrive.

He stepped on the railing on the riverbank and jumped, landing directly on top of a motorboat.

"Father." Illumi arrived rather late.

But there's no other way; unlike Silva, he can't use Moonwalk to move through the air and quickly approach the location of the dungeon.

Given the chance, he would definitely learn this method.

It's so convenient.

"Only this once." Silva nodded slightly when he saw Illumi appear, and said this.

The meaning is clear: this time, Illumi was blocked from entering the secret realm, giving him a chance to enter only once. Next time, it will be up to Illumi himself.

"I understand." Illumi looked at the secret realm rift in the distance.

"Then I'll go in." With that, he leaped again, jumping into the crack in the secret realm.

The other adventurers breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this.

"Then please do as you wish." After saying that, he left directly.

Among them, the fastest to react were the adventurers who were initially stronger and had mastered Moonwalk.

All five people entered smoothly.

Then four more people entered.

The cracks only turned "red" when they were full.

Others were also surprised when they saw it.

"It's a group of ten people."

"Damn it, this means they'll take up all the spots for entering the secret realm." Some adventurers were quite annoyed.

If this situation doesn't change, then future dungeons will be monopolized by a few people.

"Doesn't the Adventurers' Guild have any explanation?"

"What do you mean? What do you mean? We're just weaker than others; we're lucky to have become adventurers."

As for Jin, who was still studying the matter, they didn't take him seriously. This wasn't the first time they had seen such a strange person.

"So what do we do now? Leave? Or wait here?"

"Of course we'll wait. That brat dared to enter the secret realm; he's probably going to die inside. This time it's a ten-person challenge, so it'll definitely be even more dangerous," someone thought maliciously.

"You're overthinking it. Since that kid is the son of that expert, he must be quite strong too, and he's also a Nen user."

"To date, there has never been a case of a Nen user dying in a secret realm."

Some of the ordinary adventurers felt a pang of bitterness in their hearts.

If things continue like this, they will have no chance of becoming Nen users.

Although it hasn't been officially announced, rumors are circulating among adventurers that there's a chance they'll unlock a Nen ability slot and become Nen users after clearing a secret realm dungeon or killing monsters within it.
