Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 43 You are really a genius
Kill the third princess...

The prince that Moore was loyal to only asked them to complete the task to the best of their ability while ensuring their lives.

If something is impossible, the primary goal is to save your life.

Moore would not try to figure out the prince's thoughts. He would only stand from his own perspective and understand the prince's explanation as -

Only if he is alive can he better play his role as a chess piece.

Moore is willing to be a pawn that can bring more value to the prince.

However, as his companion Ada said, the prince did not want to see the two of them lose their lives for a mission, but the two of them did not want to disappoint the prince even more.

Killing the third princess is crucial.

For this purpose, Moore had decided to sacrifice his heart when he carved the divine word.

If they don't have to die, then he and his companions definitely don't want to die.

They also wanted to follow the prince and watch him ascend the stairs to the throne.

But there is no way...

The obstacle standing in the way is the Twelve Earthly Branches of the Hunter Association, which is the main attacking direction.

If you are not prepared to risk your life, how can you overcome this obstacle and complete the mission?

So when the "Cicada's Shedding Moment" was activated, whether it was just a pretense or a bluff...

Murdu only wanted to interfere with or mislead Kangzai's judgment, making Kangzai waver in the muddy water, thereby prolonging the time of containment.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned, and Kang Jae even gave an accurate guess of the time.

Even if it was just a few more seconds, he was still guessed dead.

So wait until the 60 seconds are over, and live as many seconds as you can...

The longer he survives, the higher the chances of his companions succeeding.

If there was one regret, it was that he failed to induce Kang Jae to inflict more serious damage on him before activating his ability.

This is also something that cannot be helped.

If you don't use the most basic mental energy to defend when you're attacked, you won't be able to meet the ability requirements.

But the most crucial thing was that Kang Zai had taken precautions in advance and suppressed his instincts when he counterattacked hastily and did not target his vital points.

If it weren't for the second line of defense that allowed companions to break into the room by violent means, thereby shortening Kang Jae's on-the-spot reaction time, there would be no way to drag Kang Jae into the mind space in the first place.

As expected of the twelve earthly branches——

Moore meant this compliment sincerely, and at the same time he felt sorry for his companion in his heart.

Sorry, Ada... If you could distribute more damage to this guy, your chances of surviving the mission would be much higher.

While Moore was prepared to make sacrifices, he also firmly believed that his companions could complete the mission.

He lowered his eyes, then looked up at Kang Jae.

"Tiger of the Twelve Earthly Branches. The current information I have indicates that you should be a reinforcement type, but after fighting with you, it is completely different from what I expected."

"Look at what you said. Do you think that the reinforcement department is a bunch of reckless people who can only rush around recklessly?"

Kang Jae spoke with a blank expression, counting the time silently in his mind.

Moore asked in return: "Isn't it?"

The few enhancement systems he encountered were all fearless because of their high attack and defense advantages.

Therefore, when he teams up with his companions, his favorite opponents are the reinforcement type, and he can defeat them all.

"Did the Strengthening Department eat your rice?"

Kangzai heard the contempt for the enhancement system in Moore's words, his eyes widened slightly, and he ended the 60-second count in his mind.

The thought space has not disappeared...

At least then you don't have to worry about the "damage split" effect of the counter-attack ability.

Kangzai ended the 60-second conversation, then decisively implemented his own judgment and rushed towards Moore in front of him.

The moment of launching the attack.

Kang Zai's body was not that strong, but he burst out with the momentum of a tiger.

Moore, who was the first to be affected, finally saw the strengthening characteristics that he should have in Kangzai.

“Even if the manifested energy is not diverted to the word ‘God’, it is definitely unstoppable…”

With just one glance, Moore felt the gap in "frontal combat", which is also the most difficult part of the reinforcement system.

However, he was not prepared to confront Kang Zai head-on. He gathered his energy in his feet, turned around and ran wildly, immediately extending the distance that Kang Zai could attack.

Unfortunately, the telepathic space mechanism has fixed the range of activities...

You can’t jump off the airship, and you can’t play hide-and-seek.

"I can only hold on for a minute or two!" Moore just ran away to avoid the fight.

Because the ability of "The Time of Cicada's Shedding" requires it to cause damage to the enemy within 60 seconds, he has put a lot of effort into its mobility.

If he tried his best to avoid the fight at this moment, he would not be caught by Kang Zai for a while, but if he was caught, he would most likely be killed in one blow.

In this way, Moore and Kangzai began a chase on the upper deck of the airship.

With the intervention of telekinesis, the psychological states of both parties gradually replaced each other.

The person who should be anxious now is no longer Mur, but Kang Zai.

Although Kangzai's victory is a foregone conclusion, he still has to consider the safety of his client, Sapp.

"Is this guy's ability of mind... so powerful?"

While chasing Moore, time passed little by little, and Kangzai realized that Moore's ability mechanism was beyond his expectations.

If the mind space has not disappeared within 60 seconds, it can be basically confirmed that the ability mechanism of "spreading damage evenly" has disappeared.

After that, in 30 seconds at most, the mind space should disappear.

However, the expected phenomenon did not occur.

Kangzai couldn't help but frown.

He didn't know that Moore was already stalling for time with the intention of waiting for death.

38 seconds after the chase began.

Kangzai finally found an opportunity to attack and punched Moore's back with a large amount of mental energy.

Facing Kangzai's attack, Moore suddenly turned around and crossed his left arm, mobilizing almost all of his manifested energy to build a defense.

Bang.

Click!

The punch hit Moore's left arm.

The powerful destructive force caused his body to fly backwards rapidly, and his entire left arm was shattered on the spot.

"Do you want to know how long this mind space will last?"

Using Kangzai's punch to temporarily distance himself, Moore's body fell from midair. He didn't care about the injury on his left arm at all, and asked himself:

"A full 300 seconds. Do you understand? From the moment you came in here, you can no longer protect the princess."

"..."

Kang Zai was shocked and ignored Mur's words. He burst out with the speed of a tiger descending a mountain and rushed straight towards Mur.

A frivolous smile appeared on Moore's face again.

Even though both arms are broken, it should be able to hold out for a maximum of a minute.

enough!

Just as Moore was thinking this, the yellowish color around him suddenly faded away like the tide.

"Huh!?" x2.

The sudden change surprised both Moore and Kangzai.

As the yellow color faded, the two people were still in their original positions, but there was one more person in the corridor leading from the lounge area to the entrance.

"It's him!"

Kang Jae looked at the man and recognized him as the boy who had concealed his identity as a Nen user when boarding the plane.

This young man was Moro who came to check the situation.

Watching Kangzai and Moore's bodies emerge out of thin air, Moro glanced at the word "God" on the wall of the corridor behind him, which had lost its spiritual aura. Originally, there was a portrait hanging in that place.

"It seems that my judgment was correct..."

Moro turned his gaze to Moore, whose spirit was gradually being restrained, and said calmly: "Even if the word Destroying God cannot bring benefits, it can at least bring disadvantages to the 'Troublemaker'."

"you……!"

Moore looked at Morrow in disbelief, the variable that appeared out of nowhere.

Moro raised his hand slightly, glanced at Kang Zai, and said seriously: "Terrorists are the most annoying thing. Leave him to me."

"!"

Kang Jae exclaims, “You’re a fucking genius.”

After saying this, he turned around and rushed into the room without hesitation.

In the huge rest area, only Moreau and Moore were left.
