Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 507: Sleeping, both existing and not existing
After killing the first Apostle of God, Germain obtained 2 teleportation lanterns, bringing the total number of teleportation lanterns in his hand to 21.

This is quite a large number.

Afterwards, his Hunter Badge and Gu Badge absorbed the Collector's resentment.

Although he was unable to form a body like those large species, he was able to condense a strange object for him.

"Collector's Head: Consume a type of resentment gifting instrument to lock a type of life into the cabinet of curiosities. The duration of the lockup depends on the target's strength."

A pretty good blocking ability, it's a greatly enhanced version of Showto's "Dark Inn".

After examining these, Germain walked over to the burnt, completely reduced to ashes, remains of the collector.

He looked down at the ritual stone formation that was similar to an ancient labyrinth, a coastal fortress, and a deep-sea gate, but it contained three different powers.

Suddenly, the ritual stone formation emitted light as he approached. His mind moved, and it resonated with the ritual stone formation. When he looked at the hunter badge again, he saw the clue.

"Special Teleportation Point: Collector's Ritual Stone Circle"

Another "special teleportation point".

In this way, German has lit up 11 of the 8 fixed teleportation points.

Now there are only two known bays with mist-like creatures left, and two unknown ones that have not yet been visited.

However, at this point, German could guess where the remaining two were.

He did not hesitate any longer, and raised the Funeral Blade, gathering all the energy in his body, and mobilized a terrifying force. He chopped down at the ritual stone formation under his feet.

boom--

Amid the explosion, the ritual stone formation was destroyed and collapsed, and terrifying telekinesis and shrill wails emerged from it.

Invisible waves spread out, sweeping across the area again and again, blowing away a large area of ​​rock from the already devastated land.

The flesh and blood monsters that were still nearby stopped their wriggling, biting, fusion, and transformation.

After feeling the fluctuations coming from the ritual stone formation, their sanity seemed to return for a brief moment, and they understood fear.

The scarlet monsters suddenly moved one by one.

They screamed in panic and hurriedly fled away from the ritual stone formation. Like the receding tide, they soon disappeared in the gray mist of the early morning.

In less than a quarter of an hour, all the flesh and blood monsters that had crowded the area just now retreated, and the place was as clean as if it had been carefully swept by a broom.

After destroying the first ritual stone formation, Germain set up a teleportation lantern here in its place.

「Normal Teleport Point: Collector’s Ritual Ruins」

After a while, a golden light jumped back and forth in the distance, getting closer and closer, and then stood firm in front of the eyes, revealing a golden appearance.

He looked a little disheveled, his hat was gone, revealing the spiky hair that was the symbol of the Fuli family. His clothes were torn and had several red wounds.

"It seems that you have defeated the first Apostle of God and destroyed the first ritual stone formation."

"No wonder those flesh-and-blood monsters that surrounded me fled as if they had seen a ghost. But even if they stay, I can deal with them."

German had no intention of hiding anything from his companion and briefly recounted the entire process of the battle.

Jin touched his palm and said with a smile, "That's right. There was indeed a strange gust of wind blowing not long ago."

"But it did help me. It cleared out a large number of the bloody monsters that were pouring in, and relieved my pressure."

"By the way, where did Dong go? If he were with us, at least you and I would have a helper, and everything would go more smoothly." German also found it strange. This was inconsistent with the promise Dong had made before, which led to two possibilities.

The first possibility is that they have only known Dong for a short time, and perhaps everyone has misjudged him.

Even though Dong is Jin's ancestor, it doesn't mean that he will necessarily tell them the truth. Maybe he is a liar.

The second possibility is that Dong encountered something on the way here, which delayed him and prevented him from arriving here to meet up with the other two as scheduled, and his life or death is unknown now.

However, the first possibility is still very small, because they found the first ritual stone formation according to Dong's map and instructions.

German and Jin decided to wait for Dong here for a while to see if they could meet up with each other.

However, when the morning mist dissipated, the sun rose, and the earth was bright, they still did not see Dong.

"Let's go." Germann used the "circle" to explore the surroundings for the last time, but still could not find any trace of Dong. "No matter what happened to him, we have to go to the location of the next ritual stone formation."

Time is still very urgent.

"Okay, let me leave some marks on him first."

Jin was originally sitting cross-legged, but he stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and walked towards the destroyed ritual stone formation.

He left marks and words there, and whenever Dong came here, he could see the conspicuous reminder, and with a little clever puzzle solving, he could find out their movements.

Jin wasn't worried that the puzzles he left behind would be too difficult; with East's wisdom, solving them should be easy.

German and Jin were not worried about Dong's safety. In the entire West Coast, there were only a handful of people who could truly threaten his life. Even if he couldn't defeat them, he could at least escape.

Click click click——

A four-wheeled carriage pulled by two horses materialized under Germann's will. The two men sat on it, and the carriage began to creak as it moved.

Inside the carriage, German rested quietly while sensing the situations of each transmission point he had lit up.

The ancient maze castle, the coastal fortress, the Greed Island... nothing seemed unusual. Everything was in order and everyone was taking action.

Slowly, he actually fell asleep.

As mentioned before, Germann basically doesn't need sleep now.

His body seemed to be integrated with nature, with life energy flowing harmoniously inside and outside his body.

However, at this moment, when he really fell asleep, Jin opened his eyes in doubt.

Being in the same carriage as Germain, it was impossible for him not to notice something strange about Germain. He looked over and could see that Germain was indeed sitting there.

However, it felt as if German was no longer here, as if he had completely disappeared or was somewhere very far away.

This abnormal state continued when German fell asleep, causing Jin to shudder instinctively.

Counter-intuitive…

Jin held on for a long time, but his scalp felt numb and his body felt cold, so he slowly stood up.

Trying his best to avoid bumping into Germain, he got out of the car and sat at the front.

Here, he could still feel that Germain was both present and absent in the carriage, but it was much more natural to stay here.

Jin hesitated for a long time before he turned around to look. He just sat in the front of the car, looking at the scenery of the west coast outside the car.
