Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 119: Menqi is hit hard

The crystal clear tip of the knife pierced through a layer of light film and reached Menqi's weak spot.

A streak of crimson flowed out and slowly flowed down the neck.

Menqi's face turned pale. She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she couldn't say anything for a moment.

She was completely shocked.

Whether it was the look and momentum in Moro's eyes, or the power that restrained her when they met...

Moro stared at the pink-haired girl who was so close to him.

In fact, he recognized the other party's identity when the other party pulled out two kitchen knives.

In the original novel, there is a one-star gourmet hunter named Menqi who served as the examiner of the 287th Hunter Test.

But now it is 1996, and I am afraid Menqi has not yet achieved the one-star title.

And in terms of strength...

Very weak.

Moro wasn't sure whether he had become stronger or Menqi was too weak at this time.

In any case, he did not feel any pressure during the entire process of subduing Mengqi.

The fundamental reason why it was so easy was probably because of the sharpness of the Red Jade Bird Knife and the fact that he decisively gave up some of his potential energy and launched an attack at the fastest speed.

"Throw the knife."

The coldness in Moro's eyes faded a little, but the strength in his hands did not decrease, and he didn't care at all about the blood flowing from Menqi's neck.

So what if the identity is recognized?
Moreau does not view the characters that appeared in the original work through a filter because of the original work.

This is a real world.

Anyone in this situation should be cautious when facing potential danger.

So when Meng Qi looked at him with the eyes of examining her prey, he already regarded her as half an enemy.

He himself was very sensitive to murderous intent. If he had not sensed any murderous intent at all, the knife in his hand would have done more than just pierce a wound.

Hearing Morrow's cold voice, Menqi's pupils trembled, and she quickly let go of the kitchen knife, letting it fall.

She was so panicked at this point that her chest heaved violently, causing Moreau's arms to sink deeply into her softness.

"Why are you targeting me?"

Moreau stared into Mengqi's eyes which revealed panic.

Meng Qi breathed rapidly. Perhaps because the aura of death emitted by Morrow had weakened, she finally regained the ability to speak:

"Sero, the Seven Chef Knives' Poultry Knife..."

"Oh, so you want to grab the knife."

When Moro heard this, there was a hint of contempt in his eyes. He thought that compared with Biscuit, this gourmet hunter who had at least one star in the original book actually had no bottom line.

Are all gourmet hunters like this?

Meng Qi saw the contempt in Morrow's eyes, and immediately shook his head and said hurriedly: "I didn't, I never thought of snatching the knife."

"That's not what you meant by the look you gave me just now."

There was even a hint of contempt in Moro's tone when he spoke.

Meng Qi suddenly felt powerless.

Or rather, there is no excuse.

She had no hostility from the beginning and was prepared to spend a huge amount of money to buy a kitchen knife.

It’s just that she is used to observing everyone she meets with the same eyes as she examines food.

This kind of gaze, like identifying prey, is indeed very aggressive.

If it were on an equal footing, she thought it could be explained clearly.

But now she is a fish on the chopping board, so no matter what explanation she makes, it will only be a pale and powerless excuse in front of the person holding the kitchen knife.

Who can blame this?
Is it the fault of the young man in front of me who was so rude that he didn't even give me a chance to speak?

Blame myself for being so weak that I ended up in a dead end at the first encounter?

Do not,
If I have to blame someone, I can only blame myself for being too young and hot-tempered, and never thinking that there was anything wrong with this bad behavior.

Menqi closed her eyes weakly, and on her pale face, which had lost its blood color, there was a feeling of weakness and brokenness.

Perhaps this outspoken and strong-willed girl never thought that she would have such a reaction. This was also the first time that the girl experienced the consequences of youthful vigor.

Moro looked at Mengqi's reaction of waiting to be killed, and his eyes suddenly shifted to look at the bulging little cloth bag that Mengqi wore on his waist.

"do not move."

Moro threatened coldly, then pulled out his left hand from the softness and took off the small cloth bag.

During the whole process, Meng Qi seemed to have completely given up defending herself and struggling, and kept her eyes closed.

Moreau used his thumb to pry open the opening of the small cloth bag and found that it was full of gold coins, at least thirty or forty pieces.

If calculated based on the normal gold price, this small bag of gold coins is nothing to a professional hunter.

But these gold coins——

It is a special gold coin needed to store items in the tree hole. One coin is worth 100 million gold coins and can be exchanged at any pawn shop within the business scope of the tree hole.

Therefore, this small bag of gold coins in the tree hole of Menqi is worth billions of gold coins.

He waited here without any concept of time, and went to the pawn shop to exchange dozens of tree hole gold coins for on-the-spot transactions...

Maybe he really didn't intend to steal the knife, but was planning to buy it.

You can't be waiting here to get gold coins, right?
Not to mention that a gourmet hunter would hide here to get gold coins, the people in the tree hole should not allow such a thing to happen.

But this also reminded Moro of one thing.

"Did the people in the tree cave tell you about the Seven Cooks' Bird Knife stored here?"

Moro retracted the knife, took two steps back, and asked expressionlessly.

Meng Qi slowly opened her eyes and saw Moro casually throwing a small cloth bag full of gold coins from the tree hole to her. She subconsciously raised her hand to catch it.

"answer."

Moro shook the bird knife lightly to get rid of the blood on it.

Meng Qi came to her senses and could feel the change in Moro's attitude. The pressure she was under was no longer as intense as before.

"No, the people in the tree cave follow the rules and would never do such a thing. When I was taking something, I happened to see the bird knife that the old man hadn't put away yet..."

"So you're just squatting here, trying to buy the poultry knife from me?"

Morrow could see that Menqi was not lying.

He asked this question specifically just to ensure the confidentiality of the tree hole.

However, he finally saw the hunter qualities in Mengqi. In order to pursue what she wanted, she would choose to wait here without being sure when he would come to get the knife.

To put it nicely, it means having aspirations.

To put it bluntly, it's stubborn.

Menqi nodded silently.

Moro said calmly: "Then you can give up. I won't sell you the knife."

After saying that, Moro turned and left.

Mengqi looked at Moro's back with a pale face.

Just then, two men appeared at the entrance of the alley.

"That woman?"

"Yes, she has a hunter's license."

The two men's conversation directly revealed their intentions.

Moro stopped and looked at the two men at the alley.

They are all Nen users, but their abilities are average.
