Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 475 Conditions for Triggering a Large Instance

The firewood was burning fiercely, crackling and sparks flying in the night sky.

Killua held his chin in his hand and repeated his question in the silence of the others: "Do you think we can become the owners of the Sky Arena now?"

"That depends on which OP we're challenging." Hanzo put his hands on his knees, his bald head shining like a light bulb under the firelight, "There's a gap between OPs."

"So it depends on luck?" asked Baokuer, who was wearing a tall soft hat and carrying a bow and arrow on his back.

"Almost... I heard Killua and Gon mention before that Mr. Germain's apprentice, Kurapika, is one of the owners of the Sky Arena. If the owner we challenge is him, the probability of winning is still very low, right?"

"Well...if it's him, yes."

Hanzo and Bakur spoke to each other and answered Killua's question.

Killua looked down at his hands, and there was a faint flickering and squeaking sound between his fingers.

Now that Kurapika was mentioned, he couldn't help but recall the three more formal battles he had with Kurapika.

Once was during the final exam for the Professional Hunter in 1999, once was at the end of the trial in the Sky Arena, and once was during the team formation on Greed Island.

Without exception, he was defeated every time, but the last time, he could already feel himself getting closer to Kurapika.

The next time I meet Kurapika, will I be able to defeat him?
Not sure.

However, if I have to choose a host to challenge and win in order to become the new host, then I must choose Kurapika...

Killua actually doesn't care much about the identity, status and rights of the owner of the Sky Arena.

What he cared about was to formally defeat this young man who had defeated him many times in a formal occasion.

"You guys are going off topic a bit, aren't you?" Mi Ji fanned his neck with his fat hands, "Aren't we discussing whether we've been fooled?"

"Being tricked?" Xiaojie had been watching the live broadcast of the battle between Zhixi and the OP, and did not pay attention to the conversation between the three brothers of the Zoldyck family.

Mi Ji had been with this eccentric hedgehog-headed boy for more than half a year and was familiar with his personality, so he patiently explained.

"Before I finished the main storyline of Greed Island Z, I was posting messages on the forum and saw someone had discovered a secret large-scale dungeon."

"So, I started an investigation and collected some intelligence that seemed reliable, which led to our current operation."

"No wonder you can find the hidden door and the entry method faster than a ninja like me." Hanzo touched his chin and nodded with relief.

"Of course, I came prepared."

It was rare for Mi Ji to be praised. He had basically received frustration education in the Zoldyck family. Now he couldn't help but raise his chin with pride.

"In short, the name of this large-scale dungeon is "Chimera Ant King", which is hard not to remind people of the Chimera Ant invasion at the end of 1998."

"This copy is obviously based on that incident..."

"To open the hidden door, you must complete the tasks of Ikarugo the Octopus, Wilfin the Jackal, and Hina the White Rabbit."

"After that, they'll mention how terrifying the Chimera Ant King is, and then we'll have the prerequisites for entering the hidden door."

"After entering, the enemies we will face will be many vicious Chimera Ants." "And Ikarugo, Wilfin, Sina and others will suddenly appear to help and guide us forward."

"From the plot, we know that they are the kind-hearted group among the Chimera Ants, willing to coexist peacefully with humans. The Chimera Ant King and his subordinates have the exact opposite attitude..."

Mi Ji became more and more excited as he spoke, and as a veteran gamer, he had already started to immerse himself in the plot.

"Chimera Ant King..." Killua muttered, "I remember that the one that Germain and President Netero wiped out together was the Chimera Ant King Meruem... Could this dungeon be asking us to fight the Ant King Meruem?"

"Definitely not." Mi Ji shook his head. "I asked my father and grandfather. They also went to the Republic of Dongguduo at that time. They knew how terrible Meruem was."

"The Ant King here is definitely not as strong as Meruem. Not to mention that Greed Island can't create such a BOSS, even if they did, there is no one here who can really beat him."

"Even if we all join together, we are still no match for Meruem. We may not even be able to get past his guards. Greed Island Z would never design a boss of this difficulty."

"So, according to my guess, the ant king here is probably stronger than Leiza in the coastal city of Shoufulabi, which will make the difficulty of the entire dungeon higher than the main story."

Mi Ji's analysis was so clear and logical that everyone was stunned by him. Then Xiao Jie took the lead in applauding, and the others followed suit.

"Okay." Mi Ji blushed for the first time, and interrupted, "The problem now is that we haven't seen the ant king yet. What's going on?"

They have entered the dungeon according to the methods mentioned on the forum and started their journey of upgrading, fighting monsters and collecting cards.

Under the guidance of Ikarugo, Wilfin and Sina, they will arrive at different areas and challenge the three guards under the Ant King.

Of course, these three guards are far apart, deep in their own checkpoints, and will not cooperate with each other.

Everyone just needs to fight the guards one by one, and finally they will unlock the achievement of defeating three guards and get to the location of the Ant King.

After they teamed up to defeat the three guards, they came to this area during the day today, but after waiting for a long time, they didn't even see the shadow of the Ant King.

Mi Ji had to go to the forum to look for strategies again, and finally he found the trigger condition - that is, to wait until 0 o'clock in this wilderness.

However, it was already 0:16 and they still hadn't seen the Ant King. This made Mi Ji wonder if he had been fooled by the people on the forum.

At present, the only teams that have completed the main storyline are their team and Juezijuela’s team, but there is no team that has completed this large copy.

The guide on the forum might really be an April Fools' joke, after all, no one has succeeded...

However, they are willing to give it a try. If they succeed in meeting and defeating the Ant King, they will become the first team to clear both the main quest and the large-scale dungeon.

Although Mi Ji didn't say it, judging from the way he personally handled everything, he actually likes the game Greedy Island Z very much.

If he could get the achievement of "the first team to clear both the main quest and the dungeon", he would be the person with the greatest sense of accomplishment.

"No way." At this point, Mi Ji could only sigh, "Let's wait a little longer. If we wait until 1 o'clock, the Ant King will still..."

"Shh." Killua suddenly stretched out his finger and put it on his lips, signaling everyone to be quiet, "Here he comes. I heard the sound and felt his presence."

Everyone was startled and looked in one direction.

I saw a figure standing on the arch-shaped stone pillar, exuding a strong sense of oppression.

Ant King, here we go!
