Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 399: Breaking the Cysts One by One as Previewed
To date, the Black Serpent of Slander has demonstrated five abilities.

"Mask of Malice", "Absorbing Malice", "Murderous Impact", "Super-Speed ​​Regeneration" and "Dark Warp".

The following four abilities, no matter which one, require the consumption of malice in a cyst.

The Black Serpent of Slander has nine cysts, meaning it has ample resources to use the four abilities mentioned above.

However, once the cyst is emptied and becomes transparent, the cyst itself becomes fragile and easily destroyed.

Germann took the opportunity to destroy two of the cysts, leaving the Black Snake of Slander with only seven levels of malice, further weakening its combat power.

The Black Snake of Slander was apparently aware of Germain's intentions.

After blasting Germann into the swamp mud, it stood up most of its body, looking down with vertical pupils.

At the same time, the tail on the lower half of its body swayed back and forth at the place where German fell.

What it does is simple.

That is, like playing whack-a-mole, repeatedly hitting German who tried to swim out of the mud back into the deep mud with his tail.

In this way, the Black Snake of Slander will be able to always have the upper hand and wear German down little by little.

However, something unexpected happened.

It felt a powerful energy, like a tall tower, rising from the depths of the swamp.

At first, it thought it was German, so it was ready to whip it with its tail.

However, when a pair of furry, sharp claws tore through the surface of the mud, it knew it was wrong.

Chaos roared and burst out!

It is just a huge skeleton covered with a layer of long black hair, but it has extraordinary vitality and looks extremely ferocious.

The tail of the black snake of slander chopped down, but was accurately grasped by Chaos's roaring claws, and the sharp claws pierced directly into the scales.

The black snake hissed in pain.

The roaring beast exerted more and more strength, and soon put its other sharp claw on it, using both claws to tear the snake's tail off!
The black snake didn't care about anything else and immediately screamed at the roaring beast!

"Murderous Attack"!
The roaring beast was suddenly attacked and could hardly resist, and was about to fall over.

But in the end, it held on tenaciously and responded with a roar!
"Chaos Roar"!
Two destructive cannons with different mechanisms but the same essence collided with each other in mid-air, making an explosive sound and causing a strong wind!

The rain falling from the sky was blown sideways by the strong wind, so that for a short period of time, not a drop of rain fell here!
While the roaring beast was in a stalemate with the black snake, Germain crawled out of the bubbling mud.

He shook off the mud that covered his body, took only a glance at the two giant beasts that were in a strategic stalemate, and then took action.

The scene before him was exactly what he wanted to see. He wanted to roar at the beast and temporarily hold the black snake back.

The abilities of the Black Snake are still quite troublesome.

A "killing shock" that can almost break a person's mind with just one strike.

"Super-speed regeneration" that can heal any injury.

Even with such a huge body, it can perform the "Dark Warp" of instant teleportation.

German couldn't let Black Snake keep using these abilities to his advantage.

While the roaring beast and the black snake were bombarding each other, he was as quiet as a shadow and quietly came behind the black snake.

Then, he jumped lightly onto the snake like an antelope leaping on a cliff, and continued to climb up by stepping on the gaps between the raised scales.

The black snake didn't notice for a while that the hateful human had climbed onto its body again. Germann was like an arrow shot out, darting along the snake's scales, first passing over the two cysts he had destroyed before, and then coming to the third and fourth cysts.

The malice within the transparent shell had already been consumed in the previous "Dark Leap" and the current "Murderous Impact".

Now is the time when they are most vulnerable.

Germann took the meat saw from the spider-like hands that extended from his body.

He raised the meat saw like a butcher and chopped the rusty teeth hard on one of the transparent cysts.

Pop! The cyst burst and a sticky fluid oozes out, which looks disgusting.

But German was neither in the mood nor had the time to care about so many things.

After he cut open the cyst, he immediately moved and walked quickly towards another transparent cyst.

Black Snake hadn't had time to use "Malicious Absorption", so the cyst was of course vulnerable.

Bang! German raised his hand and slashed again, easily breaking the cyst, and pus burst out!
As a result, the black snake was left with only five-segment cysts.

The black snake finally recovered from the confrontation with the roaring beast and noticed German who was destroying its snake.

It was so angry that it twisted and shook for a while, trying to throw German off again.

But German was like an extremely difficult insect, clinging to the snake's scales, standing still as a mountain.

The Black Snake had no other choice but to use the malice of a cyst again in exchange for "Dark Leap".

Swoosh! The huge black snake under German suddenly disappeared, and in his hand there was only a piece of scale that he had grabbed with great force.

This did not surprise German at all, as he once again walked ahead, having rehearsed the scene in his mind.

As if he had done it countless times, he grasped the Holy Moonlight Sword with both hands, turned around, and fired a mind cannon at his back!
boom--

The mind cannon, which was intertwined with silver-white holy light and blue moonlight, flew towards the black snake that tore through space and appeared at the expected position.

The black snake originally wanted to catch Germanman off guard, but it didn't expect that it had just "darkly folded" here, and was caught off guard by Germanman's telekinesis!

It had no choice but to hastily let out a sharp scream and responded with a "killing attack".

Boom—the familiar sound of explosion was heard, and there was another stalemate, but this time it was between German and Black Snake.

Thinking about it carefully, it couldn't remember how many times it had been forced to make a choice.

This made it even more difficult to accept, because it meant that this human being had forced it into a very passive position!

It wanted to do something to disrupt the current rhythm and prevent German from taking the lead.

Black Snake decided to attack Germain with two moves at once, using both "Mask of Malice" and "Snake Tail Sweep".

Germann was using "Mind Cannon" to counter Black Snake's "Murderous Impact".

In his current situation, he obviously had no energy left to defend against other attacks.

"Mask of Malice" and "Snake Tail Sweep" were aimed at Germann's back, one on the left and one on the right.

However, German still has a companion.

Roar--

The roaring beast roared, first swung its claws to tear apart those "malicious masks", and then at the critical moment, it grabbed the snake's tail that was swinging over!
It exerted its strength so suddenly that the black snake could not keep its balance. In a moment of carelessness, Germann's "mind cannon" had already blasted its "murderous impact" into energy fragments!
