Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 42: When the Cicada Sheds Its Shell
The word "Shen" is something that is carved with the mind and is similar to a talisman or magic circle.

It is usually used to assist Nen abilities, and can also be used for amplification and sealing.

However, since the divine characters are obscure and difficult to learn, and the prior preparations are too cumbersome and time-consuming, few people are willing to spend time and energy to learn them.

However, once you have learned something, you can use the combination of divine words and mind abilities to accomplish many things that were previously impossible.

For example, the Greedy Island game in the original work uses a large number of divine characters to expand the application limits of various abilities, thereby achieving the goal of materializing countless NPCs and objects with various special abilities within the range of the divine characters.

If the word "God" did not exist, it would be difficult for eleven Nen users alone to create a Greedy Island game of such a large scale, let alone carry out its daily maintenance and operation.

It can be said that the launch of the game Greed Island best demonstrates the value and effect of the word "God".

However, looking at the original plot, the presence of the word "God" is actually very weak, and its usage is basically not seen.

From this we can see that there must be very few people who are willing to learn the ability to read divine words.

Or maybe it's because of factors such as the teachings of Buddhism, very few people with Nen ability can get in touch with the word "God"...

Moro does not understand the word "God", but through his identity as a time traveler, he can roughly understand various information about the word "God".

In his opinion, one of the reasons why the usage rate of the word "God" is low is because of the limitation of "scope".

for example--

You have put a lot of effort into preparing a magic circle, hoping that it will have an excellent effect against the enemy, but the enemy does not even enter the magic circle.

This means that not only are you working in vain, but you are also trying to find a way to destroy the magical words you set up in advance.

Because every divine word you draw will take away a portion of the upper limit of your manifested energy.

Since the set divine word is of no use, of course we have to take back the manifestation energy that has been diverted away. Otherwise, it would be like cutting off one's own arm before the battle even begins.

Such a limitation means that the combat value of the word "God" is not high.

It is more reflected in strategy.

For those who have the ability to read Nen, instead of spending time and energy on mastering the divine word, it would be better to focus on the advanced application of Nen skills.

At this moment.

Moro accidentally discovered the word "God" in the corner of the observation deck and was immediately surprised.

Why is the word "God" here?
The first thing that Moro thought of was the unidentified person with special abilities who was coming for him and the enemy that Kangzai was facing.

If there were anyone who could possibly carve the word "God" here, they would be the only ones.

As for why Kang Jae was not taken into consideration...

In Moro's opinion, Kangzai is not good at math and Chinese, and he is carrying out a bodyguard commission, so he can basically be ruled out.

As for the other strong female bodyguard who was traveling with Kang Jae, the possibility that she was the one could not be ruled out, but the probability was very low.

Moro stared at the divine word that was emitting the aura of spiritual energy. Based on his previous speculation, he naturally had the idea of destroying this divine word.

He was not sure what the consequences of "Destroying the Word" would be.

But he was sure that this action would bring him positive benefits.

The surrounding scenery, and even the air, were dyed yellow.

Looking up, it looks like a yellowed photo.

"When the Cicada Sheds Its Shell"

This is Moore's offensive materialization ability.

When Moore is hurt by the enemy, he can immediately activate his ability, pull the enemy into the mirror space that reflects reality, and distribute the damage he has suffered to the enemy.

The duration of this thought space is 60 seconds.

If the total damage value before activating the ability is considered A, then Moore must cause more than A damage to the enemy before the mind space disappears.

As long as this condition can be met, all the damage Moore suffers during the entire ability process will be healed the moment the mind space disappears.

On the contrary, if this condition cannot be met, then when the thought space disappears, Moore will be forced into a 60-minute state of despair.

"It's a pity that only one of your arms was broken."

Being in the yellow mirror space, Moore showed a little regret, but then shook his head and looked at Kang Zai who was frowning, and chuckled:
"No, I shouldn't feel sorry for you. I should say...since you were prepared, I was able to cripple your arm, which is already the best outcome."

"..."

Kangzai glanced at Mur's limp right arm and said nothing.

Moore raised his hand and hooked his fingers: "Why, you're not going to attack?"

"The conditions for activating your ability are... too easy."

After being dragged into the mind space, Kangzai confirmed the effect of the ability to spread the damage, so he did not attack rashly.

Although we are concerned about the client's safety, we do not panic or become anxious.

"Oh?"

Hearing Kang Zai's words, Moore's face became even more frivolous, and he nodded in agreement:

"It's very easy. As long as I create an opportunity for you to fight back, you will definitely be dragged into the mind space by me. If you have held back just now, I will directly attack the room and force you to take action. So the result will not change at all, unless... well."

At this point, Moore changed the subject with interest:
"Strange, strange, why don't you do anything now, and let me talk nonsense here? Aren't you worried about the noble princess at all? Are you afraid... that the damage will be shared again?"

"Stop pretending. Simple ability activation conditions, damage-spreading effect on enemies, and mandatory mind space..."

Kang Zai's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he said coldly:
"Based on the equal relationship between the oath and the restriction, I don't know what price you will pay, but as for this mind space, it can only last for 30 to 60 seconds at most. If the mind space has not disappeared after this time limit, it means that your subsequent abilities will no longer have the effect of spreading the damage."

"..."

Moore's face changed.

This was his fake reaction.

"As expected of the Twelve Earthly Branches, you are rich in experience."

Moore put away his frivolous smile, stretched out his left hand in front of his right palm which was already unable to move, and clapped for Kang Zai reluctantly.

When the mind space was born, it no longer had the ability to spread the damage.

And 60 seconds is exactly the duration of "the time when the cicada sheds its skin".

When the mind space disappears, there is no need to worry about the effect of the ability to spread the damage.

Therefore, Kangzai's judgment is essentially flawless.

Normally speaking, Kang Zai is indeed the one who does not need to be anxious.

Even though the client outside the mind space was being attacked, Kang Zai did not lose his composure. Instead, relying on his rich experience, he saw through the details of Moore's mind ability at a glance.

In this duel that depends on ability, the one who should be most anxious is Moore, who needs to complete the conditions within 60 seconds.

Normal is like this -

However, Moore used the seven magical characters he had arranged in advance to increase the duration of the mind space to 300 seconds.

And from the very beginning, Moore had no intention of fulfilling the ability requirements.

He risked his life just to keep Kang Jae contained for more than 60 seconds...
