Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 308: Greed Island Shaman and Witch NPC
1 month 25 day.

"Greed Island", the second underground floor of Rimiru Castle.

The fluorescent light on the ceiling flickered twice, which was as uncomfortable as if the picture was obviously missing frames.

Abenganie, a brown-skinned man, was originally leaning on a chair with a backrest, leisurely flipping through the book "Shamanism Beliefs and Sacrifices". At this time, he couldn't help but look up.

It's time to find a new light bulb, he thought.

The fluorescent lights at the "Underground Lantern Teleport Point at Rimi Road Castle" are always on and are almost never turned off, which causes them to wear out very quickly.

After the theoretical cooldown of the "Teleportation Lantern" expires on January 1, there will basically be at least one person on duty in this room, such as Abenganie today.

However, this room is actually monitored by Duen, Yida and Elena at the same time. As long as there is any abnormality, they will know it as soon as possible.

The reason why there is still someone on duty is to just in case, in case there is a situation where German team needs emergency help immediately after returning.

Abenganie may not be able to provide sufficient and strong help in the critical moment, but at least there is a chance to do something.

He himself also likes this kind of life now.

Now his work is mainly divided into three parts.

The first part is to play his due role in the daily operation and version updates of "Greed Island".

Especially now that "Greed Island" has taken several months to complete the basic updates and modifications of the previous design, and the entire island game has entered the internal testing stage.

The version update was first proposed at the end of September last year, and now it is the end of January, with about four months in between.

After a month of internal testing and another month of making changes based on feedback from internal beta testers, Greed Island will be open to the public again.

In other words, there are now quite a few beta test players gathered on "Greed Island", most of whom are old players.

After changing his appearance and body shape, Abenganie played an NPC, "Shaman", during the beta test phase.

This is also the reason why he wanted to look at the book in his hand, he wanted to become one with his role.

His salary is so considerable that he is unwilling to slack off in this job, and he also feels a strong sense of belonging to "Greed Island".

In the game, as long as the player gives him certain task props or a certain amount of Jieni, he can clear the "card curse" for everyone, and even "remove the thoughts".

Of course, the "fees" charged by Abenganie vary under different circumstances and standards.

"Removing Thoughts" is definitely the highest level. If you are not a top player or a paying player, you cannot afford this "cost".

The second part is about training his direct subordinate, the female "Chimera Ant" - Hina.

Like Abenganie, she is also a "thought remover" and can do similar things as Abenganie, but she needs to be "pregnant" for a period of time.

Abenganie thought that disciplining this seemingly innocent and lively "girl" should not be a difficult task.

However, as they spent more time together, Abenganie became more and more aware of the "little devil" nature of Hina. She really was a person who loved to make trouble.

Abenganie had a headache when he thought about the fact that she was now taking his place, interacting with the beta test players without any restraints in the image of an NPC "witch". He didn't know what kind of troubles would arise.

However, what is quite strange is that in the "Greed Island Internal Test Forum", the feedback received showed that "Witch" is far more popular than "Shaman".

The group of beta test players seemed to like her eccentricity. After all, she did her job well, but she would always tease or scare the players.

The beta testers soon discovered this and posted a message in the Greed Island Beta Test Forum to explain the situation.

There are endless posts like "So cute...", "Want to be played with", "My wife", etc.

Instead of asking Greed Island Official to change the character setting of the "witch", they strongly demanded that it be retained, believing that this is the so-called "cute point".

I simply don’t know what it means.

Abenganie couldn't help frowning every time he thought about this. Were they all masochists?

Incomprehensible.

The third part is to be on duty at the "Lantern Teleport Point under the Limi Castle".

Abenganie basically has one day a week on duty here and two days off. During these three days, Hina will replace him on the "Greed Island".

Due to this feature, Abenganie is called "the official shaman who appears four days a week" by the beta testers.

And Hina is called "the lively and active wife who appears three days a week."

Yes, not "witch", but "wife".

This is the train of thought of the internal test players. They will even deliberately choose the time when Sina appears to come and increase the time of contact with Sina.

Abenganie doesn't care about it. He will get the same salary no matter what. If fewer players come to him, he will be happy to have more free time.

To be honest, he was really satisfied with his current life, and he sincerely didn't understand why Germain and others went to the "Dark Continent" to seek death.

The basement level of Limeilu Castle is the "Dark Continent Archives", and he would occasionally go there to look through the information.

Even with just a quick glance, Abenganie could tell the danger of the "Dark Continent".

He had no intention of going there at all, and after seeing this information, he became even more determined.

It's really good on "Greed Island". Abenganie has found his own value here and has a foreseeable future.

Currently, his authority level in "Greed Island" is A-level, but he is the most marginalized among the A-level.

However, he knew very well that as time went on, he would get closer and closer to the core.

Duen and Liszt need him, Granny Linnie needs him, and "Greed Island" needs him.

Most importantly, Germain needed him.

Abenganie turned another page of the book in his hand, his mind as clear as a mirror.

As long as he has not lost his "mind ability" to "eliminate thoughts", he will definitely have a special place here, and Hina cannot replace him in this regard.

Especially when Abenganie is in good condition, he can clear two "thoughts" at a time, which is something Hina cannot do at present.

Unless one day she gets pregnant with twins...

Abenganie was thinking about this when suddenly a faint purple light appeared beside him and shone on the side of his face, followed by the ripples of his mental energy.

He was stunned for a moment, then reacted and turned his head to look. He saw a "teleportation lantern" appearing at the center of a circular magic array.

came back?
Abenganie immediately put down the book, stood up, walked over quickly, and then after the light disappeared, he saw two familiar figures.

Germain in a tricorn hat and black hunter robe, and Xiaodi in black-framed glasses, a sweater and jeans.

They are back, they are really back.

Abenganie couldn't help but smile.

This smile was somewhat genuine, because his position on the "Island of Greed" was closely tied to that of Germain.

If something unexpected happened to Germain and he never came back, he would still have a place on the "Greed Island" because he is a "mind remover", but he would definitely not be able to reach a high position.

Germain is still alive and will return to Greed Island, and his influence will still be there.
