Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 126 "German and others' judgment on the ancient labyrinth city" (I)

"In this case, their brutality and reproductive capacity will soar from B to A."

"Once we successfully capture a living being, the 'black air' we saw at that time will enter our bodies and begin to infect, parasitize, reproduce, and use our bodies to start the next reincarnation."

"Their 'number' is only C-level, which means that each group of 'black air' is considered as a whole."

"However, their 'destructive power' is Class A, which means once you are infected and parasitized, you are basically doomed."

"It should be said that during the initial period of time, the host may not have died yet, and watched helplessly as he lost control of his body and parts of his limbs turned into giant spheres..."

"It would be better to die then."

“Therefore, V5 believes that the “comprehensive index” of “Plant Weapon Gold and Silver Ingots” is B.”

"That is, 'This dangerous creature must be exterminated as soon as possible. Although the method has been mastered, the cost is extremely high and the risk is huge. It is necessary to launch national and international level actions.'"

“This is actually a very pertinent judgment.”

Germain listened quietly.

He suddenly understood what Bisiji and Sambika meant and came to the same conclusion as them.

"You mean... the key lies in the 'Ancient Labyrinth City' and the 'Herb of All Diseases'. The 'Herb of All Diseases' is used as bait to lure those creatures with natural keen perception to come."

"The Ancient Labyrinth City is like a giant pitcher plant, waiting for its prey to slip in and make it very difficult to climb out."

"At this time, the 'Plant Weapon Gold and Silver Ingots' that digest them appear, turning them into nutrients to nourish the land of the 'Ancient Labyrinth City' and the 'Herbs for Curing All Diseases', completing a cycle."

"Yes. We discussed this before, and we all agree on this." Biscuit said, "But there are still two big doubts."

"First, the efficacy of the 'herb that cures all diseases' is only mentioned in the book 'New World Chronicles'. Does it really have the efficacy of curing all diseases?"

"Or is it simply emitting a 'fragrance' to attract prey?"

Germain then raised his second question: "The 'Ancient Labyrinth City' is clearly a man-made structure. What was the intention of the builders?"

"Is it an abandoned residence, or is it a sacrificial site like the 'Minotaur's Labyrinth' in mythology? Or is it both?"

"Bingo!" Biscuit snapped his fingers and winked at German. It is much easier to talk to someone who is quick-witted, as their ideas are often in sync.

German walked towards the cylinders that emitted a strange green glow under the fluorescent lights, and carefully observed the motionless corpses of the "Plant Weapon Gold and Silver Ingots" inside through the cold transparent covers.

"Research can't be accomplished overnight." Biscuit quietly came to his side, patted his strong lower back, and touched him, "You have to be patient, we will know more sooner or later."

She knew how obsessed Germain was with the Dark Continent, the Five Hopes, and the Five Disasters, and she had managed to get quite a bit of information before she met them.

Germain nodded silently.

They only stayed in the "research institute" for less than a quarter of an hour before they both left and came to the bright flowers outside, where they met Xiaodi who had returned from a nearby town.

"Little one." Biscuit said in surprise, "You're back?"

"Yeah." Xiaodi nodded and looked at German.

"German."

She was not surprised that Germain was here, and she just raised her right hand symbolically and greeted Germain in a socially polite manner. However, her expression was still as stiff as that of a third-rate actor.

"Little one." Germann was not much better. "Did your shopping go well? Did you forget anything?"

"No." Xiaodi walked around the fragile flowers and green grass, walked to the side of Germain and Biscuit, and adjusted his heavy black-framed glasses. "I'm not a forgetful person."

If you are not the forgetful person, who is?
Biscuit secretly stuck out his tongue, then came forward to ask a few questions, and then confirmed that Xiaodi did not miss anything this time.

"I told you I'm not a forgetful person." Xiaodi said as if it was a matter of course.

She is indeed very reliable most of the time, but the problem is that no one knows when she will forget something, and what's worse is that no one knows what exactly she has forgotten.

For example, now, she suddenly tilted her head and looked upwards, which meant that she was thinking and searching for the remaining memories in her mind.

"Wait a minute... I think I do have something to tell you..."

German and Biscuit looked at each other and both remained silent in tacit understanding.

Xiaodi is now like an old machine. Once it is interrupted, she will have to wait one or two hours before she can remember what she wants to remember.

"Ah." Xiaodi blinked her big eyes and remembered something. "This morning, Shira sent me a text message about the Phantom Troupe."

She reached into the pocket of her tight jeans, pulled out her unfeminine cell phone, flipped out the message, and showed it to Germain and Biscuit.

"They are all in Meteor Street. They are no longer scattered and are selecting new members to fill the vacancies."

"To avoid being exposed, I have left and will not be returning to Meteor Street for two to three months. The donation on your behalf is on hold for now. Sorry, I cannot take the risk."

Germain read it carefully. "Kuroro was very calm. He retracted the uninjured legs of the spider and sewed new ones. This put Hisoka and I at a disadvantage."

As long as the members of the "Phantom Troupe" are not alone, it will be quite troublesome to deal with them.

However, German was very patient, and as time went by, they would always reveal their flaws.

"We will help you if necessary." Biscuit promised, "I was the one who advised you to stay away from the Phantom Troupe as soon as possible. Now I can't just stand by and watch."

German nodded at her, then looked at Xiaodi: "Since Sheila is not willing to be your donation agent for the time being, what are you going to do about Meteor Street?"

"Then we'll have to forget about it for now." Xiaodi blinked and said calmly, "I have a certain understanding of Kuroro and the others. It's too risky to donate to Meteor Street now."

German couldn't quite understand Xiaodi's obsession with Meteor Street.

Although he had memories of living in Meteor Street, he saw it from a third-person perspective, so it was like a movie to him.

I feel touched, but I don’t really think I’m living in a movie.

At the same time, German doesn't think that Xiaodi's donation, which is just a drop in the bucket, can really change Meteor Street much.

Just as he had thought before, as long as the international order of the six continents did not change, Meteor Street alone would not be able to cause any trouble.

It will always be the garbage disposal site of the six continents in various senses.

He didn't understand, but he respected Xiaodi's choice and would not try to change her: "That's fine. After the Phantom Troupe is destroyed, you can pick up this matter again."
