Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 437: The Mass Cave and the Poison Pot
"Mo Laowu and Guanxi have encountered the enemy." Mi Cai Yishi Storm said to the people around him while holding the ball, "He suggested that we change our current route."

The tall and strong Yin Tai lowered his head, his thick lips opening and closing: "Aren't we going to support them? Are the two of them okay?"

"They said they can defeat the enemy." Mi Cai Ishistrom simply repeated the conversation with Mo Laowu, "But it will probably take a lot of time and energy."

Rumbling--

There were bursts of loud noises in front of them, like rumbling thunder, and the ground was shaking slightly.

Micai Eaststorm subconsciously pressed the brim of Cow Spot's hat: "Their battle has begun."

President Netero twisted his neck, making a crackling sound, and then looked in another direction: "Since they said so, let's listen to their advice."

Everyone was stunned, and then they understood President Netero's determination. They were not the kind of people who were hesitant and difficult to make decisions, so they all nodded in agreement.

As a hunter, it is impossible to stop moving forward because of a choice. Even if you make a wrong decision, it is much better than not making a decision and making things worse.

Mi Cai Ishistrom nodded, picked up the ball again, and talked to Mo Laowu: "Okay, we understand, I wish you all the best."

After a long time, Mo Laowu's voice came from the other side of the ball: "I wish you all the best. I have to end the call... squeak... squeak..."

The communication between them was obviously interfered by some force. Everyone frowned uneasily, but no one overturned their previous conclusion.

At times like this, just trust Mo Laowu's judgment and his and Guan Xi's strength.

The group changed their route and made a long detour. While listening to the noise in the distance, they still couldn't help but worry in their hearts.

They were worried that if the sound continued, it would mean that Mo Laowu and Guan Xi were locked in a tough battle. They were also worried that if the sound stopped, it would mean that the winner had been decided and one side would suffer casualties.

Although Mo Laowu said that they were confident, it did not mean that they could win easily. Perhaps the battle situation was 60-40.

However, as they got closer and closer to the eerie castle, all the wild thoughts in everyone's minds faded away, and they were chilled all over and had to focus on their own safety.

The enemies they are about to face will probably be even more terrifying than those Mo Laowu and his men encountered.

Soon, dark clouds covered the city, and a wall of twisted and tangled stone pillars spread out before them, with only a wide staircase leading directly to the upper level.

However, no matter how you look at it, the gap between the walls looks like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, and the stairs leading up are the throat and esophagus of the giant beast.

They had to take the initiative to deliver it.

"I'll go in front." German said proactively. Without waiting for everyone to react, he had already walked to the front of the queue and was the first to step onto the stone steps.

The next moment, he gained fragments of knowledge.

"The city of malice created by sacrificing lives, the ongoing ritual to bring back the demigod, has been half successful. Now it's time to find the original power..."

Everyone had no objection to German leading the way, and the group followed closely behind the black-robed figure, climbing the long stone steps and walking to the end.

However, after walking a few steps up, everyone couldn't help but look to both sides, and then they saw a horrifying scene.

On both sides of the stone steps were sunken holes in the ground, and inside the holes were crowded naked, bloody bodies.

Looking from above, the crowd could hardly tell whether they were alive or dead.

All they could see was them biting each other's throats with their mutated fangs, drinking blood, and tearing open each other's bellies with their mutated claws, feasting on their internal organs. The entire cave and stone walls were scarlet, and they could hear screams.

Wisps of black smoke emerged from the sticky and smelly hole.

They floated into the air like ominous ribbons, condensed into dark clouds, and then turned into sinful raindrops, falling at the end of the stone steps.

German just took a look and his gaze returned to the stairs. He kept looking at the end of the stairs and guarded against possible attacks.

"Thousands of people are killing each other here." Biscuit felt sick and frowned. "Is this also part of the 'Egg in the Pot Ceremony'?"

Micai Istrom pursed his lips and said, "I think that since the crash of BW1, all the creatures on this isolated island have become part of the 'Egg in the Pot Ceremony'."

"Whether you like it or not, two hundred thousand creatures, plus the 'indigenous people' on this island, cannot escape from this 'octagonal cage'."

He glanced at President Netero, who did not make any comment, and at Germain, who was walking in the front.

"If we want to put an end to all this, we must uproot the flower of sin. President Netero and Germain probably think so."

Biscuit nodded sullenly.

She had to admit that she couldn't be as steadfast in her path and goals as President Germain and Netero.

Even Jin and Xiaodi, even Michai Storm, Potobai and other twelve members, will have times when their minds waver.

However, President Germain and Netero will not be fooled by the chaotic appearance and will continue to move forward. They will always stick to the most important goal.

Michel Esstrom is right. If we really want to end the suffering of these people in the cave, we must eradicate the root of the problem, otherwise everything will be in vain.

The group could only ignore their miserable condition and listen to their wailing, and walk up the stone steps silently.

Finally, they saw the end of the stone steps.

"Here it comes." German, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. "Something is coming."

After receiving the reminder, everyone raised their already alert posture to the maximum level of combat readiness, adjusted their breathing, and paid close attention to the movements around them.

At the end of the stone steps, there was a graceful figure sitting on a dark thorn stone seat.

Her skin was pierced all over by the sharp protrusions of the stone base, and blood spread out like the hem of her skirt. She hung her head and held the pot of poison in both hands.

The tiny, golden fairy girl flapped her transparent wings, flew out of the poison pot, landed on the woman's shoulder, and sat down.

She held her chin and looked at everyone with interest, her small legs swinging.

Beside the stone base was turbid black fog, which twisted and changed into human faces. They seemed to be trying to break free from the shackles and keep rushing forward, but were pulled back by the black fog.

However, soon four thicker black fogs separated from it. They circled in the air and then flew towards the crowd with a roar.

Puff puff puff——

They landed at the four corners of the wide stone steps, surrounding everyone in the center. Then, one huge monster after another walked out of the black fog.
