Hunter: You Call This Food Hunter?

When all the candidates started running, the examiner leading the way said: "I'm sorry that I haven't told you until now.

"I am Satotz, the examiner of the first exam. Now I will lead you to the venue of the second exam."

The bald ninja Hanzo was confused: "The second game? What about the first game?"

Satotz said without any fluctuation in his tone: "It has already begun. Follow me to the venue of the second exam. This is the content of the first exam.

"I will not tell you the location and arrival time of the second exam venue, so candidates please follow me closely."

Leorio is full of confidence: "A test of endurance? Who is afraid of whom? I can follow you to the end of the world."

Kurapika thinks further than Leorio.

‘Is it really that simple? A race with no end in sight, still in this dark underground tunnel. '

‘In fact, this is also a test of people’s willpower.

Gon didn't think too much. He caught up to the examiner and asked, "Mr. Satotz, do you know which exam Eaton is the examiner for?"

Satotz showed surprise for the first time since his appearance.

He asked: "Do you know Lord Eaton?"

Gon nodded and said: "Well, Eaton was with us for a while on the way here, and he is also my father's friend."

"Who is your father?"

"His name is Kim Freecss. Do you know Mr. Satotz?"

Satotz didn't expect that the child in front of him was so powerful.

But since he is Jin's child, it's not surprising.

Satotz sighed slightly: "Mr. Eaton and Mr. Jin are both great Hunters."

Tonpa, who heard the conversation between Gon and Satotz not far away, was frightened.

Good guy, the kid he just came into contact with is so powerful?!

After being frightened, Tonpa couldn't help but feel lucky that Gon had not been eliminated just now.

Fortunately, he didn't succeed, otherwise he would have faced the "friendly" greetings from two of the world's five strongest men.

Tonpa silently walked away from Gon, and he decided to stay away from this man for the next exam.

At this time, Qi10ya passed by Leorio and Kurapika on his skateboard.

When Leorio saw it, he pointed at Killua angrily and shouted: "Hey, brat! You violated the rules of the game!"

Killua turned around and asked in confusion: "Is there any?"

"Do you dare to say that? This is an endurance competition, how can we use props?"

Gon came back from the front of the team and when he heard Leorio's words, he retorted: "No, the examiner just said that we should follow him.

Leorio's anger shifted: "Gon, how can you speak for outsiders?"

Kurapika on the side said calmly: "Stop yelling, that will only speed up your physical exhaustion."

"And there is indeed no rule against using tools in the exam."

Leorio gritted his teeth, but still closed his mouth obediently.

Killua noticed Gon, a man about the same size as himself, and asked: "Boy, how old are you this year?"

Gon replied: "Me, I'm almost twelve years old."

It's rare to meet someone of the same age here. Killua thought for a while and jumped off the skateboard.

"I can just run away."

Killua's handsome gesture of putting away his skateboard attracted Gon's admiration.

"Wow, you're so cool! My name is Gon, what's yours?"

"My name is Killua."

After Killua introduced himself, he looked at Leorio and asked: "Uncle, what's your name?"

Hearing someone call him uncle, Leorio's mouth that had just been closed once again shouted loudly: "Uncle?! I'm a teenager just like you, okay!"

"No way! Leorio, I always thought you were in your thirties."

Gon was almost stopped in his tracks by Leorio's age.

Kurapika speeded up silently, he didn't want to be the same age as an uncle who looked to be in his thirties.

Leorio pointed at Gon and shouted: "You even say that, Gon, that's too much! I want to break off our relationship with you!"

Okay, this does sound like something a teenager would say.

Only after Leorio took out his identification did Gon and Killua believe his age.

"I still think your and Eaton's ages should be reversed," Gon complained.

Leorio was deeply shocked, and he really couldn't argue with this, because Eaton did look younger than him.

However, Eaton said he was in his early 40s.

Killua asked curiously: "Who is Eaton you talking about?"

Gon introduced: "Eaton is an official Hunter, he..."

For the next time, Gon and Killua whispered to each other in low voices.

The entire team of candidates followed Satotz.

Kurapika silently calculated that they had been running for more than three hours and the distance was about 40 kilometers.

However, this tunnel seems to have no end, and I don't know where it leads.

After a while, Leorio was already a little weak, but he still followed the team with strong perseverance.

Until 60 kilometers, no one in the entire team of candidates was lagging behind.

Most people still had the energy to speak, and a small number of people didn't even break a sweat.

It can be seen that the physical fitness of humans in Hunter's world is far better than that of people on Earth.

Running long distances is not difficult for most candidates, and Satotz, an examiner, also sees this.

But it doesn't matter, they will soon face the real test of the first exam.

When the candidates ran to 90 kilometers, Hanzo, who was running in front, suddenly shouted: "Look!"

Some candidates even exclaimed in disbelief: "Hey, are you kidding!"

What did they see?

They saw that the road ahead was no longer smooth [replaced by stairs that continued to extend upwards and still had no end in sight.

When they arrived here, Satotz had no intention of warning him, but instead quickened his pace again.

Some candidates exclaimed: "This guy is a monster! He looks like an ordinary person walking, but he takes several steps in one step!"

As we all know, going up stairs is a very physically demanding job.

Some people may get out of breath after climbing the sixth floor.

Although the people in the Hunter world are physically strong, the candidates who can take the Hunter exam are even more talented.

But don't forget, they have just finished a 90-kilometer marathon.

If you continue to climb stairs in this situation, many people are destined to be unable to keep up due to lack of physical strength.

The first batch of eliminated people is about to appear.

At this time, Leorio was covered in sweat and his breathing was no longer even.

He simply took off his shirt and tied it around his waist, leaving him shirtless to make himself more comfortable.

Perhaps because she was bored after running for so long, or perhaps to help Leorio divert his attention, Kurapika asked:

"Lerio, are you okay?"

Leorio gasped for breath and said: "You can tell by the look on my face! If I don't care about it, I should be able to hold on for a while!"

"But! Even if you are naked, I will follow you!"

"Kurapika, if you are afraid of being laughed at, I advise you to stay away from me now!"

Seeing Leorio's desperate look, Kurapika was somewhat touched in her heart.

He asked: "Lerio, can I ask you something?"

Leorio nodded and said: "If you are not afraid of using up more energy, just ask."

"Is the reason you want to be a Hunter really for the money? I guess not."

"Although I've only been with you for a few days, I can tell."

"It's true that you are frivolous and simple-minded, but you are definitely not that superficial."

Leorio clenched his fists and said, "Thank you, you don't have to say the first half of it."

Kurapika ignored it and continued: "I have met many people who regard money as their life. You are different from them."

"Tch, it sounds like you understand me very well."

"Fiery eyes."

"What?"

Kurapika decided to open her heart to Leorio: "This is why the Kurapika tribe was massacred."

"Fire-red eyes are a characteristic of the Kuluta people. When they are emotionally excited, the color of their pupils will turn into a fiery crimson.

"If you die in that situation, the crimson color will stay in your pupils forever."

"That bright red color is known as one of the seven most beautiful colors in the world."

Leorio was silent for a moment and said: "Is this why you were attacked by Phantom Troupe?"

Kurapika did not answer, but said: "I saw at that time that not a single eye of the murdered tribesman was left, all were gouged out."

"Their empty eyes seemed to speak of the unquenchable resentment in their hearts."

"I vow to catch the Phantom Troupe with my own hands and return the eyes of my compatriots to them.

Although Leorio wanted to ask Kurapika if he could identify who each pair of eyes belonged to.

But he still stopped this behavior of rubbing salt into other people's wounds.

He turned to analysis: "I guess they have sold their eyes to the black market a long time ago. And the buyers must all be powerful, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close to them."

"That's why I wanted to be Hunter."

Kurapika said: "Once you become a contract Hunter with a wealthy man, you can get more information from them."

"Sign Hunter?" Leorio said in surprise, "The kind of Hunter who relies on others has no dignity. Don't you hate that kind of Hunter the most?"

Kurapika sighed: "What does my personal dignity mean compared to the pain endured by my people?"

Leorio looked forward, his eyes deep.

"I'm sorry. My reason for becoming a Hunter is not as great as yours. My purpose is still for money."

"You lie!" Kurapika scolded, "Do you think you can buy everything in the world with money?"

Leorio gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay!"

"Not only things, but also dreams and hearts can be bought. Life is also something that can be bought as long as you have money!"

Kurapika said angrily: "Take those words back, Leorio!"

"Why? It's a fact! If my friend had money, he wouldn't be dead!"

Kurapika was shocked and asked softly: "Is it because of illness?"

Leorio970 didn't look back, nodded and said: "Yes. His disease is not a terminal illness, the problem is that the cost of surgery is too high.

"I was very naive at the time. I thought I could become a doctor in the future and heal my friends."

"But he failed to wait until I became a qualified doctor."

"My dream is to cure a child who has the same disease as my friend, and then when his parents want to pay for the medical bills, I will wave my hand and say "no money."

"Oh, that's really ridiculous."

Leorio laughed at himself: "For such a dream, to become such a doctor, I have to spend a huge amount of money that I have never seen in my life.

"Understood? Money, money, money, I am a Hunter just for the money!"

Kurapika smiled slightly and said no more.

Such a great dream does not need his evaluation.

The staircase part was not as long as a marathon, only about 10 kilometers, but it eliminated a full 37 people.

Including one candidate who was eliminated from the marathon, there are a total of 38 people.

Compared with the overall number of people, it is less than one tenth.

It can be said that the elimination rate is not high, but the first exam is not over yet.

The candidates returned to the ground through the stairs, but they were only halfway through the experience.

Satotz gave all candidates a break.

During this period, he introduced the candidates: "This is the Wet Mele Wetland, which most people call "the fraudster's lair."

"There are many rare and exotic animals in this wetland that are not found in the outside world. Most of them live by eating human flesh and are cunning and greedy by nature."

"This is the only way to enter the second examination venue. Please follow me closely."

"Once you fall into the trap, you are doomed."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud shout came from behind the examinee.

"He is a liar, this man is lying!"

Everyone looked over and saw a short-haired man with ragged clothes and scars all over his body.

He was also holding a monkey-like corpse in his hand.

The strange thing is that the face of this corpse is somewhat similar to Satotz.

After the short-haired man appeared, he pointed at Satotz and said: "This man is a fake! He is not the examiner, the real examiner is me!

"If you don't believe it, just look at it!"

The short-haired man shook the corpse in his hand and said: "This is the human-faced ape that lives in the Shimeile Wetland.

"Human-faced apes like to eat human flesh, but because their limbs are slender and weak, they often pretend to be humans, lure people to wetlands, and then join forces with other creatures to hunt.

"This guy's purpose is to catch you all in one fell swoop!"
