Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 95 "Ancient Labyrinth City and Plant Weapons, Gold and Silver Ingots"

The overall damage index of the Chimera Ant is B, and the damage level of the plant weapon gold and silver ingots is similar to it. It is a threat that should not be taken lightly.

The Saherta United States special forces made a mistake and entered the ancient maze city while neglecting plant weapons, gold and silver ingots, and paid an extremely heavy price for it.

German was unwilling to repeat the same mistake.

"This is the ancient labyrinth city." He stood in front of the death monument erected by the special forces of the Saheltah United States and said, "One of the 'five disasters and hopes' I mentioned before is here."

Everyone either expected it or nodded solemnly and continued to listen to German.

"Although I knew that we would run into one of them sooner or later if we explored the Dark Continent like this, I didn't expect it to happen so soon."

"I have told you everything I know about plant weapons, gold and silver ingots. Beyond that, I know nothing. Lack of intelligence is very dangerous, as the tragedy of the Saheleta United States Special Forces has proved."

"The danger level here is B+. I don't think we are strong enough to explore here. We should leave."

It is common for Germain to have such thoughts. After all, Chimera Ants with similar degree of harm require President Netero, Mo Laowu, Nob and other elite hunters to take action to deal with them.

Of course, this is also because the Chimera Ants have such strong growth potential and their individual destructive power is incredible.

"I agree." Biscuit put his hands on his hips and stared at the ancient maze city not far away. "It's a pity, but the destructive power of the plant weapon gold and silver ingots can reach A, and the mortality rate will be quite high."

"You are all still in the growth stage. You shouldn't take risks and bet everything on this and lose it all in the end."

Upon hearing this, Xiaodi couldn't help but reveal a look of disappointment. After hearing about the ancient maze city, the herbs that could cure all diseases, the plant weapons and the gold and silver ingots, she was not afraid at all. Instead, she was eager to try.

She seemed to have seen that her "bulgy fish" swallowed the corpse of the plant weapon gold and silver ingots, and spit out handfuls of rings, which could then be donated to the charity organizations on Meteor Street.

Not to mention the herb that can cure all diseases. No matter whether it is picked intact or incomplete, its value is enough to shock the entire human world. It is also a heavenly sound to those who cannot get medical treatment on Meteor Street.

However, the team leaders, German and Biscuit, both objected with very good reasons. She adjusted her black-framed glasses and could only accept it silently.

Yun Gu also frowned, but for other reasons.

Teacher Biscuit said, "We are still in the growth stage and should not take risks," which includes him.

He has always been determined to gain the true recognition of Mr. Bisiji and get rid of the title of "agent". Obviously, he cannot do it at the moment, but he is not a child and will not show off in such a place.

"But..." Biscuit suddenly changed the subject, with the corners of his mouth raised, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts, revealing a sly smile, "In other words, when you are strong enough and fully prepared, it is time to challenge this place again."

When Xiaodi and Yungu heard this, they couldn't help but show joyful expressions, and German also nodded.

Biscuit continued talking, moving around them.

"At that time, as long as we can avoid or destroy the plant weapon gold and silver ingots at the lowest cost and retrieve the healing herb, I will have a 70% chance of convincing President Netero to help us."

"Why is there only a 70% chance?" Germain asked in confusion. "70% is already high!" Biscuit puffed up his cheeks angrily.

"You all know about President Netero. His thoughts are too hard to guess, and he is also a staunch opponent of exploring the Dark Continent."

"Obviously, he also secretly formed a team and went to the Dark Continent... double standards, too double standards!"

Biscuit got angry when she thought about the playful smile and irrelevant attitude that President Netero might show when she was talking about serious matters.

If there are not enough results and the cost is as small as possible, President Netero will never give in, and even Germain may be controlled.

This is one of the reasons why Biscuit has been willing to keep the secret for Germain until now.

Germann adjusted the brim of his hat, thought for a while, and said, "The Wallfacer forcibly teleported us to the vicinity of the ancient maze city, probably to allow us to explore this place."

"However, we really don't have to follow its will. I will leave a lantern here and enter at another suitable time..."

As he said this, he suddenly felt his ankles being restrained. With a "plop" sound, his whole body suddenly sank into the soft soil, and soon even his head was swallowed by the earth!
This change came so quickly and almost silently that not only German, but even the two veteran hunters Bisgi and Yun Gu did not notice it in advance!

German was trapped deep in the suffocating underground and was dragged through quickly. During this time, he could hear the surprised calls of Biscuit, Xiaodi and Yungu.

This is completely comparable to the "hiding" that President Netero did when he hid in the woods. Germain thought, are the life forms in the Dark Continent born with these abilities?
Or maybe, this is the instinct of living things, and "Psychic Users" are just returning to their original nature and regaining the animal power that was lost after the establishment of human society?
German remained calm at this critical moment of life and death. He materialized a large and heavy crow shield, and erected it as if it was strangling an animal's throat, blocking his way!
His weight and the Crow Shield stuck in the mud hole really slowed down the dragging of the object that was entangled with his feet, and his movement underground slowed down.

Germann sprayed out some mud that had fallen into his nostrils and curled up his body in the narrow and dark tunnel. He roughly estimated the direction and made his left ankle materialize into a leech hidden blade.

The Leech Hidden Blade was worn on his ankle. Under Germann's will, the blade suddenly popped out and pierced the long strip of object that was wrapped around his left ankle!
With a "swish", the leech's hidden blade sank deep into it, and then Germann swung it left and right, cutting off the long strip of restraint in the blink of an eye!

The left ankle was freed from the binding, and the long strip of restraint on the right ankle also loosened and quickly retracted.

Before Germann could think about how to get out of this narrow and dark newly dug underground cave, he heard a voice from above.

"German." That was Biscuit's voice. German could also feel his gradually gathering "energy". "I'll save you. Don't move!"

Then, there was a loud shout, and the three-meter-high layer of soil that buried German was suddenly shattered and exploded!
Above the cave, where the sun shines, Biscuit's reassuringly majestic body is revealed.

"Are you okay?" Biscuit, who had transformed into his true form of King Kong, looked down.

German climbed up and dusted off his body, looking a little disheveled, but still heroic: "It's okay, I'll come up now."

Just as he was about to climb up, he suddenly had an idea. He looked down and saw that the long strip of restraint that was cut by his leech hidden blade was lying quietly at his feet - it was a small piece of vine.

German picked up the cut vine, put it in his arms, then took a step forward, stepped on the earth wall of the cave blasted by Biscuit, and flew up easily.

However, as soon as he returned to the ground, he found that the battle was not over yet. Biscuit, Xiaodi and Yun Gu were confronting a monster at the entrance of the ancient maze city.
