Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 53 Five Disasters and Hope

After reading it for the second time, Bisiji handed the phone to Xiaodi and let her read it herself.

But Xiaodi refused: "I won't watch it a second time, I feel like I've memorized it."

"'I think I've memorized it.'" Biscuit glanced at Xiaodi suspiciously, then said, "Forget it. Your memory is sometimes good and sometimes bad. Since you are so confident, you must have memorized it."

She turned to look at Germann again, considered her words, and asked, "Do you know the 'Dangerous Organisms Comprehensive Evaluation Table and Level Detail Table'?"

Germain nodded.

"Yes, I saw it on the Hunter Special Website."

"Based on the four factors of "number", "cruelness towards humans", "reproduction capacity and reproduction rate", and "destructive power", a comprehensive evaluation is made for dangerous creatures."

"From high to low, they are divided into five levels: "A", "B", "C", "D", and "E."

"That's it." Biscuit put his hands on the tea table and stood up suddenly. "The five major disasters I know of are all between A and B in terms of danger level."

"Now I have two questions. First, why didn't you return with any "disasters"? Second, I want you to rate the creatures you encounter. Can you do it?"

Human expedition teams almost always return home empty-handed in the face of the "Dark Continent". Of course, there is nothing to complain about when they are wiped out, and the teams that survive are usually forced to bring back the "disaster".

"Disaster" and "hope" usually go hand in hand.

These "hopes" will often make great contributions to the human world, which is why so many people continue to pursue them.

Unfortunately, no "hope" has been brought back so far, but at least five "disasters" representing "despair" have been brought back.

The "Five Major Disasters and Hopes" are:

"Pappu the Human-Educating Beast" and "No-Man Stone".

"Plant weapons, gold and silver ingots" and "Herbs that cure all diseases".

"Double-tailed Snake Hell Bell" and "Longevity Food Nitolomi".

"Misty biological dust" and "Three original waters".

"Zorbaai, the Immortal Disease" and "Alchemical Plant Metalion"

Biscuit looked at Germain with sharp eyes.

She had some doubts in her mind for a long time. Although she couldn't see it with her own eyes, since she decided to trust German once, she had to be mentally prepared for this.

German is not secretive. Whenever Biscuit and Xiaodi ask, he will reply as briefly as possible.

"The reason is the same as how I went to the Dark Continent, it was my Lantern. I did not come into contact with the Gatekeeper or the Guide, nor did I encounter Disaster and Hope."

"Although I've already said it once, I'll explain it in detail again. Biscuit, Xiaodi, do you know a game for hunters called "Greed Island"? "

Xiaodi shook her head.

After thinking for a while, Biscuit slammed his palm and said, "Ah, I remember now. It's a game made by that troublesome guy. I heard it's very profitable."

The "troublesome guy" she was talking about was Jin Fulishi, one of the "Twelve Branches of the Hunter Association".

"In fact, Greed Island really exists." Germain broke the mystery in front of Biscuit in advance, "All game consoles teleport players to an island."

Biscuit opened her eyes slightly in surprise: "Is that so? I haven't paid attention to information in this regard... But building a 'game world' is indeed Jin's style." Then she also realized the reason why Germain brought up the "Greed Island".

"I understand." Biscuit pointed at Germain, "Your 'lantern' is like a 'game console'. We can go directly to the 'dark continent' through the 'lantern'."

"Yes, that's what I mean. This is why I travel back and forth quickly and never bring back any "disasters", but I have to bear some costs myself."

Biscuit nodded. Her thoughts were flowing like a spring, and she understood it all at once: "It's the 'stress', 'traits' and 'disease' you mentioned before...all the clues are connected together."

"You'll understand the truth after you experience it," German said. "As for the 'dangerous creature rating', I can make one, but it will be biased."

"I am not specialized in studying biology, nor do I have enough time and energy to study them. It is more based on intuition and the feeling after actual contact."

Biscuit folded his arms and thought for a while.

"That's fine. A hunter's intuition is sometimes very important. Rather than forcing you to use non-professional knowledge to rate, it's better to use your intuition."

"Just make a rating form based on your personal opinions. Don't worry, Xiaodi and I are just using it for reference. We won't trust it completely and will make a judgment on the spot when the time comes."

After hearing what Biscuit said, German couldn't help but think of Hisoka's personal opinion on the "Nen System".

"My personal opinion... By the way, someone has given each "Nen ability system" a personality classification. Is this reliable?"

Biscuit sat back on the swing chair, threw the apple core she had eaten into the trash can, and asked curiously, "Tell me about it."

"That person said..." Germain thought for a moment and said, "The 'Enhancement Department' is simple-minded and very innocent, while the 'Transformation Department' is fickle and full of lies..."

Biscuit from the Transformation Department couldn't help but interrupt, "That's not believable at all, right? Saying that he's fickle and a liar is too much..."

She acted like a delicate girl who was about to cry.

As expected, what Hisoka said makes sense. German thought as he looked at Biscuit.

It is true, what Germain said makes sense. Xiaodi looked at Biscuit and thought.

"Go on." Biscuit's expression changed very quickly, and he quickly returned to his cheerful look, "What else did that person say?"

Germann didn't keep anyone in suspense and told the whole story in one breath.

"He said that the 'release type' is careless and impatient, while the 'operation type' does what it wants and likes to reason."

"The 'materialization type' is very neurotic, and the 'trait type' is an individualist with leadership qualities."

Hearing this, Biscuit nodded repeatedly and pointed at German and Xiaodi.

"I agree with the statements 'materialization types are neurotic' and 'enhancement types are simple-minded and naive' because I have met people like that before."

"However, you must not judge the other party's "Nen ability" based on this, because there are exceptions to everything, and there are many people who have been defeated in a life-and-death battle because of preconceived notions."

As a senior who had lived more than 20 years longer than Germain and Bisiji, Bisiji's words were still very convincing, and both of them nodded.

"The ratings I make will be similar to this. Is that okay?" German asked.

"Okay." Biscuit nodded repeatedly. "Just as a psychological preparation, this level is enough. It should be said that if you list the data too professionally, it will affect our judgment."

"As hunters, no matter how many times we hear about our prey from others, it is never as certain as seeing it with our own eyes."
