Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 451 The future of Meteor Street lies in the seeds of hope planted today

Qiduo took a slow breath and exhaled evenly: "Xiao Di, we have a suggestion. I hope you can listen to it before making a decision."

"Oh... okay." Although Xiaodi felt a little strange, she still agreed.

Qiduo placed his hands on the table and continued seriously.

"It's like this... Our Hunter Association has lost a lot of members during the chaos of BW1, so we are interested in inviting new members to join."

"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. We cannot use the examination selection system of the six continents in the new world, so we chose the fastest and most flexible way."

"That means that I, Michai Storm, Satsuma, and others will conduct a thorough background check and directly invite those we deem suitable to join the Hunter Association."

"There are only three names on this list at the moment. One is you, one is Hua Shi Dou Lang, and the last one is Merewong."

"Huashi Doulang and Merewong have already agreed to our request. Although the formalities are not complete, they are now professional hunters."

"What I want to ask is, Xiaodi, are you willing to join the Hunter Association and become a professional hunter?"

Xiaodi never thought that he could skip the hunter exam and become a professional hunter directly.

She blinked her big eyes and subconsciously looked at German and Biscuit beside her.

However, German and Biscuit both shook their heads and said nothing, letting her make her own decision.

Seeing that the two closest people would not help her make a decision, she had to think about it herself and asked:

"Hmm... I want to know, what benefits can I get if I join the Hunter Association?"

Qido first looked at President Netero and Micai Istrom, and after exchanging glances with them, he looked at Xiaodi again.

"First, you will obtain all the full rights of a professional hunter. This is the most basic."

"Second, we will take into account your achievements as an amateur hunter and allow you to be promoted directly to a one-star hunter. You will also gain the full rights of a one-star hunter."

"third……"

Having said this, Qiduo paused and his expression became more serious.

"We know that you have never given up investing in your hometown, Meteor Street, and you also know that we are currently having a secret collaboration with Meteor Street."

"The origin of Meteor Street is a landfill, racial discrimination, skin color discrimination, etc., and it eventually evolved into a gathering place for stateless people without social identity."

"This area, which is comparable to a small country, is like being tied up... It will be an extremely difficult and long task to untie Meteor Street."

"After the Chimera Ant invasion, the old order of Meteor Street collapsed, and a new order of Meteor Street was established."

"At present, the new Meteor Street executives are basically inclined to cooperate with us, but there are still many things that need to be communicated."

"Your and Sheila's dual identities as professional hunters and people from Meteor Street will make communication smoother, and the people from Meteor Street will be more willing to trust you."

"We will need your help in the future, and we also promise you that we will help Meteor Street break free and make it recognized by the Six Continents society."

Speaking of Meteor Street, it really touched upon what Xiaodi was concerned about.

She was silent for a while, and couldn't help asking, "How are you going to help Meteor Street untie the knot?"

"It's very simple." Qiduo adjusted his thin-rimmed glasses, "Let Meteor Street integrate into the future trend in advance and make it an indispensable place in the future."

Xiaodi shook her head in confusion.

Qiduo further explained: "The foreseeable future trend is that the six continents will continue to invest in the New World, building towns, factories, and schools here..."

"The future of mankind undoubtedly lies in the New World, in the Dark Continent...

"However, the geographical location of Meteor Street is not close to the New World."

"However, German's teleportation lantern, Greed Island's teleportation technology, and the future Age of Exploration will change all of this."

"As long as Meteor Street is willing to integrate into it and become a part of it, everything will be a different matter."

"Of course, the beginning is always the most difficult. Meteor Street will encounter many obstacles from all sides of the six continents."

"But we believe that, just like the countless gold rushes in history, the population of the six continents will flock to the New World like crazy."

"There will be a shortage of labor over in the Six Continents. If they want to earn more and get more, they will realize the benefits of the people of Meteor Street who have lower labor costs."

"At that time, they will take the initiative to come and invest in Meteor Street, build roads to the entrance of Meteor Street, and build factories on Meteor Street."

"To do this, we need a stable Meteor Street ruling order, a Meteor Street that is gradually whitewashed, and a group of Meteor Street people who are no longer one-sidedly xenophobic."

“These things need to be planned in advance, and we need to get the support and understanding of the people of Meteor Street.”

“Perhaps half a century later, we will be able to see a completely different Meteor Street. Xiaodi, you can promote this event, or you can witness it.”

The problem with Meteor Street can actually be attributed to the fact that the six continents cannot see the role of Meteor Street in the world's overall distribution, nor do they regard the people of Meteor Street as labor.

The six continents are more satisfied with competing for limited resources within their existing territories, and certainly do not want another force to step onto the world stage and get a piece of the pie.

However, now the great vision of "exploring and developing the universe" is beckoning to the six continents.

This is like people who suddenly stand at the forefront of the times and make their first pot of gold. How many people would be satisfied with this and be willing to return to their previous positions and do their previous small business?

Once their focus shifts from the six continents to the new continent, sooner or later they will free up a large industrial chain, waiting to be taken over by regions with lower costs.

Meteor Street is waiting for this trend, and by then people from the six continents will debate for them and untie them.

The future picture of Meteor Street that Qiduo described was so beautiful that Xiaodi couldn't even imagine it with her limited knowledge.

But she did feel the pulsation of the seeds of hope breaking through the barren, crowded and polluted land of Meteor Street.

Xiaodi didn't say anything or express her opinion. Qiduo didn't know what she meant, so he turned to look at German.

Germann also has the dual identities of a Meteor Street native and a professional hunter, but everyone knows that Germann does not have a strong sense of belonging to Meteor Street.

His attitude towards Meteor Street was more due to Xiaodi's attitude, so when Qiduo looked at him, he just shook his head slightly.

German knew Xiaodi. She just had the habit of blocking out external things when thinking, like a single thread. She couldn't handle too many things at once.

Be patient and give her some time, she will figure it out.

Sure enough, a moment later, just when Qiduo was about to say something, Xiaodi suddenly woke up from his thoughts.

"I think this is fine," she said. "I am willing to join the Hunter Association. Regardless of whether your promise can come true or not, I am willing to do something for this matter."

"Since you need my help and Meteor Street needs your help, I will choose to help you."
