Chapter 3 Wet

"Whoever can follow me to the second test room will pass the first test. I can't tell you where the second exam will be or when it will arrive, so you just need to follow me......"

See, the rules are so simple, the hunter examiner dressed as a waiter strides at the front, while more than 500 people follow behind and run wildly, like a marathon.

At first, everyone was able to keep up with the team, but as time went on, the team gradually stretched out...... It's not just a test of endurance and physical strength, it's a mental test...... A long-distance run that doesn't know the finish, the time, or the distance can easily cause people to have negative emotions such as impatience, panic, and doubt, which will affect your true level of performance.

In all fairness, everyone here, every candidate, is the best in this "Full-Time Hunter" world, after all, only one out of every 10,000 dreamers who try to apply for a hunter's license will be able to come here...... A veritable choice.

Therefore, everyone here is a person with excellent average strength and outstanding in a certain field, whether it is physical fitness or combat, these people have strength comparable to medium and high-level werewolves or vampires.

But even if the quality of the candidates is so high, on average, only one newcomer can pass every three years, and the exam of the Hunter Trial is by no means easy...... In this endless marathon run that gradually begins to accelerate, when the running time reaches more than six hours...... The first eliminated person finally appeared, but it was just a big boy with a laptop in his hand, fat and fat, as if he was some rich and honorable young master, a novice among the novices. As for the others, on many people's faces, not even a drop of sweat can be seen, and Xiao Jie, who is only twelve years old, runs at the forefront of the team with ease...... How long is it going to run? No one knows this...... But Lilin didn't have an easy run...... That's right, although his comprehensive attributes are already more than four times that of ordinary people, and each basic attribute point has reached forty-six points, this does not mean that he has become a superman, and he can take the acceleration of hundreds of kilometers as child's play...... Among these five hundred, there are simply many people with his level of strength.

Ordinary people run at high speed for 30 minutes ~ 1 hour, 3 ~ 15 kilometers is already the limit, athletes and soldiers who have received intensive training can increase this value by 3~4 times, but now the time and distance of Lilin running has far exceeded this value by more than ten times...... Although the smile on his face has never changed, and his calm and calm attitude has not caused the slightest ripple, the facts are the facts, and Lilin's body is about to arrive, no, it should be said, it has already reached the limit...... The beating speed of the heart has already exceeded 200, the muscles of the whole body are spasms, and the legs are completely unconscious, just in the mechanical cross-step, if it were not for the super large dose of Xing/Xing/agent injected into his body, I am afraid he would have lost consciousness in the running...... Compared with Lilin, the little butler who has replaced all her limbs with mechanical prosthetics is much easier, after all, she mainly consumes the miniature batteries loaded in the prosthesis, and the replacement batteries, the mechanic Dr. Shen has prepared for her quite sufficiently, although it is still inevitable that she will be mentally tired, but the little butler is indeed much easier than Lilin.

He had already noticed Lilin's situation, and even though he was exhausted, the little butler still approached Lilin and wanted to carry him on his back.

"There is no limit to how you can run, but if you don't run with your own strength, you won't be eligible for the next exam, even if you can reach the finish line......

The rookie killer Dongba has been deliberately staying at the end of the team, just to observe the candidates who are about to fall behind, to break their confidence and break their will, and when he finds out that Lilin's physical strength has already reached the limit, he finally can't help but speak.

Hearing his words, little Lucy was stunned for a moment, although she also knew the malice in Dongba's words, but his words were not unreasonable...... just the first exam, it was already impossible to complete it by her own strength, so wouldn't the subsequent exams be even more dangerous?

It is better to continue to take risks and force on...... Opt out...... After all, the safety of the owner is above all else...... Just when little Lucy was thinking about it, she didn't notice in time that some strange changes were quietly taking place in Lilin's body...... the blood!

Ririn's second heart, a miraculously mutated tissue that fuses gourmet cells with perfect blood, a wonderful organ that hides countless unknowns...... When Lilin's body has completely reached its limit, when Lilin is still calmly directing his already collapsed body to continue to run forward...... the blood, finally changed.

In just an instant, it replaced the already convulsed and spasmodic heart in Lilin's chest, replacing it to complete the task of circulating blood, not only that, but this blood manipulation seed also used the drop of "big snake blood" imprisoned in it as a "battery" to forcibly extract strange energy from it, instead of oxygen for Lilin's muscles to consume.

As if his body had been re-injected with new vitality, Li Lin smiled slightly, and actually took out a bottle of fresh blood from the brand emblem, raised his head and poured it...... A heat formed in Lilin's body, and the blood circulating in his body was filled with fiery explosive power like boiling magma...... Lilin's skin instantly turned red, and there was a faint blood-red steam coming out of the pores on his body. Just like a steam train with full power, every time Lilin stepped on the ground, it would form an explosive reaction force, which made his speed increase several notches in an instant, and it was as if his physical strength was infinite, rushing to the front of the team in one fell swoop, and if it wasn't for Lilin's deliberate suppression, he would even rush to the front...... Boiling Blood...... One of the extended skills of the blood species can temporarily convert the health in your body into physical strength in a ratio of 3 to 1 (three health points are converted into one stamina value), and greatly improve your physical fitness while increasing explosive power. When the skill is activated, it will continue to consume the blood in your body at a rapid rate. This skill cannot be activated when you are below 15% health............ Lilin drank sweet blood bottle after bottle, running was no longer a difficult thing for him at this time, stimulated by him, although the little butler didn't know what had happened to his master, but in short, it would not be a bad thing, the girl smiled slightly, and quickly inserted several new batteries the size of a matchbox into her arms and thighs respectively, and took out the waste batteries that had been depleted and threw them away. The little butler's spirit was also lifted, and he immediately sped up to catch up with Lilin...... Little Lucy wasn't the only one who noticed the changes in Lilin...... In the darkness, the other pair of eyes narrowed into a slit, but still couldn't hide the two cold lights, and they also stared at Lilin ...... deadly, "Although...... The current strength is still low...... Lack of playability...... But it seems...... It will be an excellent toy with great development potential...... Yes...... Unripe and delicious fruit...... I'm wet again......"

"Hey! Look! That's ......"

"No......"

"Is this a joke? Just running on a flat road for so long is already the limit, but it can become a ......"

What caused the commotion of the candidates was still the deep and dim tunnel, but the tunnel had undergone some changes, it was no longer flat, but began to extend diagonally upward, almost at a large angle of seventy degrees, through one step after another of steep stairs to the diagonal upward, as far as the eye could see, there was no end in sight...... The examiner, dressed as a waiter running at the front, turned his head slightly, and his face was full of provocation and cold smile...... "Below...... I'm going to speed up a little bit......"

In the next moment, this tall and thin hunter examiner, his strange running posture did not change at all, even the frequency and span of his steps did not change, but his movement speed increased instantly, and the steep staircase was as smooth as a downward slide in front of him...... At this time, the candidates who followed behind began to be overwhelmed, and almost every few kilometers of upward climbing, there would be completely exhausted candidates who sat on the ground, panting profusely, and could not stand up again.

Rillin and Little Lucy remain in the middle of the line, but they are not too far up and not falling behind. And not far behind them, there happened to be Kurapika and Leoli, both of whom had already taken off their coats, Leoli was even shirtless, sweating profusely, his tongue sticking out, running like a dead dog, completely lacking the chic appearance of the suit and leather shoes that he had deliberately maintained when they first met.

However, they still seem to be at ease, and at least have the strength to debate the topic of what hunters can do. As he spoke, he explained the reason why they wanted to become hunters...... Leoli fought to become a superb doctor who could treat the poor for free, but it required a lot of money, so he wanted to be a hunter for the sake of "money".

As for the blonde beautiful boy Kurapika, it's for revenge...... Take revenge on the Spider Brigade that slaughtered his people. These two young people, one has the same "occupation" as Lilin, and the other has a "common goal" with Lilin, which cannot but be said to be a kind of fate, Lilin later simply joined in their small talk, and the winding and steep stairs don't seem to be so annoying...... time, just spend it in their small talk...... When reaching the middle of the staircase that leads to the ground, the one who is left behind is ...... A total of 37 people.

…… When a ray of light finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes, everyone had a feeling of being separated from the world...... Sunshine turned out to be so beautiful, so ...... Move...... But who knows if the real nightmare hasn't started yet?

The exit of the underground tunnel is a place that no one can imagine...... It was an endless swampy jungle...... "The Wetland of Lost Melody, also known as ...... 'Fraudster's Field', this is the only way to get to the second venue, among the rare beasts that live in this wetland, many of them are cunning and greedy creatures who are proficient in human language, like to confuse humans, lure them into traps, and treat them as food...... "The hunter examiner looked back at the candidates and said meaningfully: "Please be more careful, once you are deceived, it will only be a dead end...... So the best way to get through this wetland is to follow me closely......"

"Liar! He's lying! A weak voice suddenly came, and when everyone heard the voice, they saw a man with a scarred body coming out of the corner...... "That examiner! He's a fake, I'm the real examiner! He is the monster 'Human-faced Ape' that inhabits the Wetlands of Lost Melody......" The man, who claimed to be the real examiner, threw the corpse of an ape with slender hands and feet and a human face on the ground, and pointed to the examiner dressed as a waiter and continued: "The human-faced ape is very cunning and loves to eat fresh human flesh, so they pretend to be humans, introduce more people into the swamp, and then unite with other powerful creatures to round up, so ...... That guy, he's just trying to lead you into the swamp and kill them all! ”

And this sentence has also become the last sentence that this "man" said in this life...... Dangdangdang...... Three crisp sounds came, and three playing cards were nailed deep into the man's cheeks, instantly taking the life of the "real examiner".

The person who made the shot was the magician Hisoka.

This bewitching man, who was dressed in clown-style clothes, wearing high heels on his feet, and heavy makeup on his face, said with a smile while washing his playing cards: "It's really fake...... The real examiners are all active hunters entrusted by the review committee, so they won't be able to withstand this level of attack......, right?"

Hisoka's method of judging who is the real examiner is unusually simple, that is, attacking both sides at the same time, and those who can survive are real...... The examiner, dressed as a waiter, casually threw the three playing cards in his fingers on the ground, and said coldly: "Thank you for the compliment, but from now on, no matter what the reason, if someone attacks me, it will be regarded as disobeying the examiner's order and automatically disqualified from the exam." ”

"Understood." Hisoka replied with a grin.

And at this moment, the "corpse" of the human-faced ape that had been thrown on the ground by the fake examiner suddenly jumped up and fled towards the wetland at an alarming speed.

It turned out that it was playing dead before.

But in front of more than 500 masters, how could his escape plan be realized.

Just as Hisoka took out two playing cards, intending to completely cut off the cunning creature who dared to deceive him, before he did, a blood-red whip suddenly rolled out, firmly tied the neck of the human-faced ape, and then pulled it back mercilessly...... It was Lilin who made the shot, and I saw that he grabbed the panicked and frantically struggling strange monkey in his hand, as if he was hesitant and entangled, and the next moment, he actually made a scene that shocked everyone...... Li Lin grabbed the neck of the human-faced ape, and a sharp scalpel suddenly appeared in his hand, and he raised and fell, which had already cut the major artery in the neck of the human-faced ape, and Lilin lifted the convulsive demonic beast corpse high, and the red blood flowed down like a waterfall, and finally fell into Lilin's open mouth...... His throat rolled, swallowing all the blood without pulling it all, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was feeling something.

The human-faced ape was very thin and weak, and there was not much blood to shed, and Lilin had already drunk it in a few sips, but his terror was not over, and he was seen holding a scalpel again and slashing at the corpse of the human-faced ape on the ground.

The next moment, the corpse exploded out of thin air, turning into countless intact pieces of flesh and organs...... Lilin picked through the corpses, and finally picked up something that was white and thin, like skin, and stood up contentedly, with a refreshing smile like the sun on his face...... The hundreds of candidates around, along with the hunter examiner, were all looking at Lilin with a strange gaze, as if he was the truly terrifying monster.

"Wow! Brother Lilin, what did you just do? So powerful! It's just a little too bloody. "The first one to speak to Lilin was a childlike Xiaojie? Fulix, this kid only has endless curiosity in his heart, and there is no prejudiced concept of good and evil, so he only feels magical about Lilin's curiosity-hunting method, but does not feel that there is anything wrong.

And Li Lin also had a bright smile on his face, touched Xiaojie's head, and said without concealment: "This wetland is too dangerous for me, so I want to learn as much about this place as possible through this human-faced ape." ”

"Wow! I see! Unlike Xiao Jie, who looked at Li Lin with a look of admiration, next to Xiao Jie, there was a silver-haired Zhengtai of the same age as him, who was looking at Li Lin with a suspicious and sarcastic gaze. In the boy's beautiful big eyes, there was a coldness and cruelty that was completely incommensurate with his age...... "Brother Lilin, let me introduce you!" This kid's name is Killua ? The Killer is a killer, but he's also a friend I've just made, and he's the same age as me. Xiao Jie did not notice the hostility between his companions at all, but he was very enthusiastic about the introduction, and at this time, Kurapika also walked over with Leoli.

"It's not too early, let's go to the second test venue...... After the examiner finished speaking, he stepped into the wetland of demele and walked forward with the strange steps he had taken before.

"Wow! Running a marathon again? It's still running on a muddy swamp! I'm going crazy~~~! Leoli began to grumble.
