Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 296 What is number 502 doing?
When Kurapika said that the fourth challenge was a written test.

Dongba really wanted to ask those damn guys next to him as soon as possible if they had found any clues in the library.
Keep in mind that the airship is currently high in the sky.

The fact that the examiner had already revealed the test questions meant that the test would be conducted on the airship.

From this perspective, the speculation he fabricated yesterday to prevent these newcomers from getting any rest might actually become a reality.

Thinking of this, Dongba felt somewhat anxious as sweat beaded on his forehead.

If it weren't for the inappropriate timing, he would have loved to find someone to ask immediately.

"Don't rush, don't rush... The written test won't be held here. You can find a chance to ask on the way to the test center."

Dongba's thoughts raced.

It was clear that the decision had been made to abandon the test at the very beginning of the fourth test.

But after hearing that the question was a "written test" that did not involve risking his life, Dongba wavered.

Countless times in the past, he had witnessed countless people lose their lives, collapsing in despair...

At that moment, he thought that if obtaining a hunter's license was something he dared not hope for, then he would accept this limitation and become number one in another way.

But now, with the hope of reaching the final test right in front of him, he has to consider whether this might be his only chance in this lifetime!
Dongba clenched his fists secretly, anticipating many opportunities to ask questions later, and tried his best to calm himself down.

At this moment, Kurapika continued in a calm and composed tone: "The test has already begun since I announced the test questions. Now, please pay attention and 'remain quiet' as you follow me."

When he said this, he emphasized the words "keep quiet" in his tone.

Dongba: "囧"

What does "keep quiet" even mean?!
For a moment, Dongba even wondered if he was being targeted.

The candidates present heard Kurapika specifically emphasize keeping quiet, and out of caution, none of them dared to speak.

And so, Kurapika led the group of examinees to the library on the airship.

Prior to this, the long tables in the library's reading area had been transformed by Beanman into twenty-one individual desks.

Each desk has a test paper and stationery on it, and a number is embedded in the upper right corner of each desk.

These numbers are the test numbers of the candidates.

And if you look closely, you'll notice that several desks are very close to the bookshelves where the books are placed.

The desk closest to the bookshelf area is number 502.

That is, Moro's candidate number.

Kurapika didn't give the test takers much time to observe and think.

Upon arriving at the library, he promptly and concisely read out the test rules:
"Each desk you see has a unique number corresponding to your test number. The test paper corresponding to your number and the stationery needed for the written test have already been placed on the desk."

"The written test will last six hours. Please note that if the test paper is lost or damaged, you will be disqualified from taking the test. Also, please complete this test while strictly adhering to the library rules."

At this point, Kurapika quickly scanned the examinees present.

21 people...

Number 502, Moro.

Number 444, Hisoka.

Number 294, Hanzo.

Number 384, Greta.

Number 197, Amori.

Number 198, Imori.

Number 199, Umori.

Number 472, Leorio.

Number 473, Xiao Jie.

Number 474, Kurt.

Number 475, Killua.

Number 22, Barbara.

Number 53, Baokuer.

Number 246, Peng Si.

Number 191, Martial Artist Baudelaire.

Number 18, Dongba.

Number 80, Sniper Shi Ba.

Number 89, Sisitu. Number 34, Dragon.

Number 118, Somi.

Number 103, Scar Peng.

Kurapika withdrew his gaze and calmly said, "Then, let the timer begin."

The voice just fell,

To everyone's surprise, Kurapika turned and left, leaving the group of examinees alone in the library.

Faced with this illogical development, the candidates were astonished, but no one dared to utter a sound; the entire library was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Those candidates who make it to this stage are not necessarily shrewd, but they are certainly not fools either.

They were brought to the library, and after hearing Kurapika specifically explain the library rules, they understood why Kurapika had emphasized "keeping quiet" before they came here.

This is to give them a heads-up in advance.

In other words, even though there are no examiners present to supervise the upcoming written test, candidates should refrain from making any noise or even talking to each other.

Otherwise, they are very likely to be eliminated directly.

Thinking of this possibility, the candidates silently walked to their respective desks.

Moro also went to the desk closest to the book collection area. Before sitting down, he had already noticed that there were surveillance cameras all around.

These surveillance cameras were all installed in conspicuous locations, as if they were afraid that others wouldn't notice them.

Moreover, in terms of both quantity and distribution area, the cameras can basically monitor the entire library from all angles.

So even if the examiners are not present, the mere presence of these cameras is enough to create an invisible pressure on the candidates, suppressing some of their thoughts.

Because no one can guarantee...

Will someone be eliminated on the spot if they behave out of line?

The probability of this unknown situation is quite high.

Furthermore, even if someone has many ideas in mind, no one is willing to be the first to take the lead.

Under the combined influence of human nature and psychological factors, the candidates honestly and silently browsed the assigned test papers.

Moro also turned his gaze away from his surroundings and focused his attention on the exam paper.

Just before that, he saw Hisoka staring intently at the exam paper, his face filled with an unusually serious expression.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

With these questions in mind, Moro also looked at the exam paper.

1. Why does the Seven-Colored Deer, as recorded in the book "Palu Rare Animal Encyclopedia," only appear every seven years, and why is the market value of its fur so high?
2. In the biography of Sicily, what is the connection between the tree burial custom of the Luca people and their belief in the Tree of Reincarnation, and what implications does this have for modern ecology?
3. The book "Meteorology and Concepts" points out that climate anomalies in certain regions are related to underground veins. Please explain this phenomenon using your geological knowledge.

4. Based on the history of world weaponry, please list three ancient weapons that were prohibited from being forged due to their extreme danger, and explain their principles.

5. On a small island called Whale Island in the Drew Sea, there is a giant fish with multiple segmented limbs. Please write its biological name.

……

26. The Dentola region is known for its famous assassination families and its distinctive local cuisine. Please name at least one of these dishes.

……

33. In the Chesley Forest, there is an insect called the Double-Horn Killer Bee. What is its weakness?
……

Moro only glanced at the test questions briefly before understanding why Hisoka looked so serious.

Looking around at the other test-takers, they were all sweating profusely.

"This exam paper..."

Morrow looked at the wide range of questions on the exam paper, lost in thought, and soon noticed some clues.

“Following the library rules… and the questions about Whale Island and the Dentora region, I see.”

After realizing Kurapika's intention in creating this exam paper, Morro suddenly got up with the exam paper and went straight to the library area with many bookshelves.

His actions instantly attracted the attention of the other test takers.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Moro.

"What is number 502 doing?"

Then everyone saw Moro calmly take a book off the bookshelf and start flipping through it while looking at the exam paper.

"???"

The candidates were immediately dumbfounded.
