Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 380: Silva's Decision

In the gloomy attic of Jaeger Zoldyck, a large group of people gathered, which was rare.

They stared at what was before them, as quietly as bats returning to a cave.

“This is the ‘cure-all herb.’ ”

"This is the Alchemical Plant Metarion."

“This is the ‘No Man’s Stone’.”

German brings three kinds of "hope".

Among them, the "Herb of Cure for All Diseases" and the "Alchemical Plant Metarion" are soaked in a special solution to prevent them from withering.

The "No Man Stone" is covered in a special powder to keep it dry.

Jager, who lost his left hand and right leg and was forced to sit in a wheelchair, smiled, revealing his few teeth.

"It seems that you have indeed done it once again. It makes sense that Isaac Netero has so much trust in you."

Maha walked around the transparent container of "Herb of Cure for All Diseases" with his hands behind his back.

His hair had fallen out and the wrinkles on his face were slightly smoothed out. He smiled and looked like a kind and amiable old man.

"Before, Netero brought over processed 'Herb Injections' or 'Medicine Powders'. This is the first time I've seen the real thing."

"I didn't expect that such an ordinary-looking plant could have such powerful healing abilities."

Zeno, whose silver hair was still thick enough and sticking up toward the ceiling, gently twisted his shrimp-like beard with his fingers, but his focus was on the "Alchemical Plant Metarion".

"This is the treasure that alchemists dream of but cannot obtain... Germain, I heard that it can make "Nen users" not restricted by the "system", is that right?"

"That's not accurate." Germann, dressed in a black robe, stood aside, like a vampire count in the castle.

"Our "mind power" still needs to abide by the "system" restrictions, but with the help of "enchanted equipment" we can use the "transformation-related mind power" to transform the mind into the corresponding "elements." "

Zeno nodded in understanding, and paced around "Hope" just like his grandfather Maha.

Sheba didn't seem to have much emotion.

He was too tall, so when he looked at the "hope" in the container, he had to bend down. He looked at it for a long time before he stood up again.

"German, can I try one of the powers of Hope? For example... the No Man Stone?"

"Please do as you please." Germann replied, "This is a gift to the Zoldyck family. You have the final say on how to deal with it."

So, Shiba took one of the "No Man Stones" out of the dry powder in the container and soaked it in water.

After experiments, it was found that if the "unmanned stone" was away from the environment required for hatching for a long time, it would no longer be able to hatch and would actually turn into a kind of ore.

Everyone looked at the stone, which looked like a bead, releasing beautiful electric light in the water waves.

The next moment, Shiba reached out and fished out the still discharging "No Man's Stone" from the water, and calmly wiped off the water droplets with his fingers.

After the "No Man's Stone" dried, it no longer discharged electricity, and Shiba put it back into the dry powder for storage.

During the whole process, Shiba remained calm, and the onlookers did not show any surprise. They just watched his actions quietly.

For members of the Zoldyck family, receiving electric shocks is a compulsory course, something that must be experienced every day, just like three meals a day.

For Silva, the discharge of the "No Man Stone" was more like an electric therapy that soothed his body and mind.

"How much electricity can it release?" Shiba asked again.

"Each 'No Man's Stone' is different, but the average is about 20,000 kilowatts a day," German replied, "and that's not its limit."

"I can feel it." Shiba, who had personally touched the electric current emitted by the "No Man Stone", commented.

At this moment, he remembered the "Psychic ability" that Killua displayed in front of them an hour ago, which happened to be "Transformation-Lightning".

Although Killua can transform his own energy into lightning, he still needs to "recharge" from time to time as a "restriction and oath."

I'm afraid that Killua will not need to "recharge" until he grows to a higher stage, such as the stage of Feitan, the deceased member of the Phantom Troupe.

Are there such coincidences in the world?
Killua needs to "recharge" at this stage in order to maintain long-term and continuous combat power.

And the "No-Man Stone" just happens to be his "power bank".

Looking at the "No Man's Stone", Shiba couldn't help but be tempted.

"It seems that I should fulfill my promise." Jager said with a smile at this time.

"When Germain came last time, I told him that if he could bring back the "No Man Stone", I would let him contact Alluka."

After German left, Jager had already told Maha, Geno and Silba about this matter, but no one expressed their opinion at that time.

Jaeger brought up the old matter again, but Maha and Geno remained silent.

But their silence is actually a kind of tacit approval.

However, none of the three of them said anything definite, but instead looked at Shiba together.

Although they are the elders of the Zoldyck family, they do not use their seniority to bully others. They are very clear that Silva is now the leader of the Zoldyck family.

The three Zoldyck family elders need to know the limits and cannot have it all. If they want to take control of the family, they should not have stepped down in the first place.

An example of someone who does the opposite of what they do is President Netero.

Even at an advanced age, President Netero has not yet trained a successor to the Hunter Association, and even if there is a successor, he has not delegated power to anyone. President Netero seems to be lax and undisciplined, but in fact, he is more dedicated and devoted than Maha, Jaeger, and Zeno, and he will never stop until his death.

This is not actually a good thing.

However, he has changed in the past year, perhaps he has really seen "hope".

Shiba knew that everyone's eyes were focused on him.

He thought calmly for a while, then his sharp eyes looked at German through his sparse silver bangs.

"What do you want to do by contacting Alluka?"

"I want to learn more about the 'Mist Creatures' and then decide whether to target them or the 'Double-Tailed Snake Hell Bell' as my next target."

Germain replied.

Shiba shook his head. He obviously misunderstood what Germain meant.

"You should have a basic understanding of Alluka's ability and cost. I will not allow you to use his "wish" to achieve your goals. That is too dangerous."

"I understand." German said, "I will not make a wish to Alluka, nor will I let anyone else make a wish for me."

"I just want to get in touch with her, meet her once, and get a general impression of her. You can monitor and observe the whole process, and I can accept any "restrictions" you put in place."

Germann looked at Jaeger, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and said, "If necessary, I am willing to sign the Blood Oath Shackles."

There was silence in the attic for a while.

"No need." Silva said, "I'll take you to see Alluka."

He also knew that the "mist-like creature Ai" from the Dark Continent in Alluka's body would have to be dealt with sooner or later, and the opportunity to solve it lay with German.

Half an hour later, Shiba led the way and Germain followed him, passing through one heavy gate after another.

In addition to them, there were two other people traveling together on this trip, namely Qiya and Ziponian.

Finally, there was only one last gate left in front of them.

However, after it was opened, Xiba let Ziponian go in first, and the others stayed outside.

After a while, Ziponian came out.

She was tall and sturdy, wearing a monocle, and smiling as if nothing had happened.

If we ignore the blood on her fingers...

"Master Aluka wants my little finger nail." Zibonian explained, then bowed to Shiba and said, "Master Shiba, I'm leaving now."

"Yeah." Shiba nodded.

Afterwards, Ziponian turned into a shadow and quickly left the corridor with many gates.

Silva allowed German to contact Alluka, but of course there were no restrictions at all.

He just knew that the best way to limit it was to use the rule of "making a wish and acting cute".

The last "wisher" was Mi Ji, who wanted an expensive, high-performance computer.

Alluka fulfilled this wish.

Generally speaking, such "making a wish" and the "acting coquettishly" undertaken by the later comer should not be too troublesome.

The result was exactly as Silva expected. Alluka's first act of "acting cute" only cost Ziponian the nail of his little finger.

In Silva's opinion, if Alluka wants to reach the state of "making a wish", Ziponian will need to satisfy the other two "coquettishness".

And if Ziponian satisfies one of his "coquetry" and leaves directly halfway, then Alluka cannot change the object of his "coquetry".

In other words, as long as Ziponian no longer appears in front of Alluka, Alluka will not be able to fulfill the wishes of others.

However, if Ziponian dies due to any reason, it will be regarded as "failure of acting coquettishly".

Everything is back on track, and the difficulty of "satisfying others by acting cute" will be reduced to the lowest level.

This is also one of the reasons why the Zoldyck family decided to lock up Alluka even though they knew there was such a restriction method.

"We can go in now," said Sheba.

In fact, before Silva had finished speaking, Killua had already walked in quickly, followed by Germain and Silva.

A scream of surprise was heard from inside the room.

When German walked into this fairly spacious, enclosed cell, the first thing he saw was the floor full of dolls of various sizes, and then he saw Alluka.

Alluka's hair color is still inherited from her mother Kiku, which is pure black, long and straight.

She is petite, wearing a shrine maiden costume, and the headband on her head is engraved with the four expressions of "joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness".

At this time, Alluka was enjoying the long-lost warm hug from her favorite brother, with a satisfied expression on her cute face.

Shiba just watched with his arms folded across his chest, without making any noise to interrupt.

At the same time, other members of the Zoldyck family were watching this scene in the monitoring room.
