Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

"Since that hotel disappeared, I haven't been able to recover a large sum of money owed to me, and my business has completely collapsed."

“You’re telling the truth. Take the ten thousand nuns yourself.”

Mitchellston held the blue card in his hand, signaling the other party to come and collect the money.

Upon hearing this, the fat man was overjoyed. He hurriedly pulled out a banknote, turned around, and left the tavern.

Seeing that some people had tasted success, the others couldn't hold back any longer and crowded to the front to share useful or useless information.

Of course, there were also those who tried to muddy the waters and talk nonsense, but after that person was given a blue card by Mitchell, the others immediately became much more obedient.

Half an hour later.

Mitchellston calmly walked out of the tavern and descended the spiral staircase to the ground.

The setting sun cast its golden rays upon the iconic angel statue of Dalatlan, making it appear exceptionally sacred and beautiful.

Looking at the beautiful statue, Mitchellston thought that developing tourism might be a good option for the city.

He obtained a lot of statements from those taverns, most of which were useless.

However, the remaining useful information provided strong evidence for one of his conjectures.

A merchant who used to trade between St. Vera and Dalatlan noticed a strange phenomenon while frequently visiting the Stone Inn to meet clients.

The owner of the inn, Shi Zai, seems to change frequently.

Sometimes it's a meticulous middle-aged man, sometimes a military uniformed man focused on his meal, sometimes a hot and beautiful woman, and sometimes... a young man with curly black hair.

Hearing these descriptions, Mitchellston was basically certain that the [Stone Carrying] Hotel was actually a group property secretly set up by the [Four Thieves of Fujiang].

They might be doing this to prepare for their future retirement, or they might simply be looking to make money.

However, this preparation ultimately failed to work. The Four Thieves of Fujiang, along with the inn, were exposed to the authorities and eventually disappeared.

As Mizziston pondered, he suddenly looked over the statue's head and saw a jarring crimson hue appear on the horizon.

That is…

Mitzusten narrowed his eyes, decisively exerted his strength, and leaped upwards, landing on a house.

Using a few moments of leverage, he reached a very high place and looked out into the distance.

It was only visible on the horizon.

A crimson beam of fire was falling straight down from the sky to the ground.

The scarlet flame was incredibly fast, almost instantly piercing through the clouds.

With a deafening roar echoing across the sky, a scarlet meteor, trailing a long, fiery tail, plummeted toward Lake Rusty!

Rumbling--

A terrifying, thunderous roar resounded.

Then came a massive, earthquake-like tremor that plunged the entire Dalatland into panic!

Chapter 199 [Stone] × Old Tradition of Forced Landing

hiss--

A crimson light pierced the sky, and the horizon instantly exploded with white-hot cracks.

boom!!!

The enormous shockwave roared like a wild beast, stirring up towering waves in Lake Rusti. Where the red light fell, massive amounts of water vapor evaporated and turned into an indelible white mist.

Lake Rusti, which was originally sunny, was suddenly transformed into a vast lake covered in a thin mist!

At the same time, the roaring sound of the mountains shaking could be heard in the airships approaching Dalatland.

Danger!

Diya and the others instantly became alert, sensing the overwhelming and terrifying aura emanating from the outside world.

"In the northwest!"

Silva astutely determined his location and decisively ran towards the airship corridor!

Diya followed without hesitation, and after a few twists and turns, they left the room and soon arrived in the corridor.

The corridor was filled with a cacophony of voices and hurried footsteps, with sounds of fear and excitement rising and falling.

Many passengers crowded around the airship windows, pointing and chattering about the distant scenery.

There, a red light was shooting into the sky!

"That direction! Judging by sight, the only large lake about 100 kilometers from Dalatland is Lake Rusty!"

With just one glance, Qiduo pinpointed the exact location of the sudden change—their destination. She promptly pulled out her phone and made a call.

"Mr. Ciyutuo, a special incident has occurred at Lake Rusti. There will likely be many onlookers. Please arrange for people to create a cordon immediately!"

Dia glanced at Qiduo, who was struggling to negotiate, and thought:

'Qido should be able to handle things, so there's no need to worry about ordinary people infiltrating the mission later.'

They had been on an airship for three days and three nights, but before they even landed, their destination was already undergoing a sudden change, which was not a good sign.

If some nosy onlookers were to sneak onto the lakeside, it would cause a lot of trouble.

Dia's mind raced. She suddenly pushed through the crowd and, as she walked toward the airship's cabin door, gave Silva a look.

Shiba understood immediately. The airship would follow the route, passing over the area along Lake Rusty before heading to the higher-altitude Dalatland.

But now that an anomaly has occurred, going to check it out has become the top priority.

So, it's the same old recipe—

An immediate forced landing!

About ten minutes later, a medium-sized airship sped past 15 kilometers east of Lake Rusti.

puff……

The barely perceptible sound was suppressed by the turbulent airflow at high altitude, and the airship's cabin door was quietly opened.

The surging airflow outside rushed into the airship like a shark that had just seen blood, but was immediately blocked outside by two tall, immovable figures!

Swish!

Dia and Silva seized the opportunity and leaped down into a grove of trees. Instantly, their figures transformed into two black dots, disappearing into the thin clouds.

In the corridor outside the airship, Bisky, with her keen hearing, seemed to have sensed something. She grabbed Kito, who had just finished making a phone call, and strode back...

In an ordinary jungle.

boom--

A loud noise suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of the black-haired man who was on his way.

He turned his head and saw—

A rabbit, in a panic, rushed out of the bushes, crashed into a tree stump, and died on the spot.

"..."

After a moment's thought, Mori decisively stopped and turned to walk towards the rabbit:

"Okay, I'll have you for lunch today..."

call out--

A barely perceptible, piercing sound came from the air, and Mori instantly became alert.

He instantly vanished, concealing his aura to the extreme, and hid in the canopy of a nearby tree.

As soon as Mori hid, he looked up and saw that the sound had come from there.

A sixth sense told him that a very powerful enemy was approaching.

After staring intently for a long time, Mori finally spotted two dark figures rapidly swooping down at the limit of his vision!

'Falling from such a height without any protection, he's most likely an [Emission] type user. He doesn't even try to conceal his aura as he falls; he's a close-combat expert with absolute confidence in his abilities…'

Mori squinted, and in the blink of an eye, he had formed a profile of the newcomer.

'One against two isn't a problem; my ability works even against multiple opponents. But the issue is dealing with two skilled enemies simultaneously; I'm afraid it'll be difficult to meet the activation conditions...'

As the saying goes, the more powerful the ability, the more stringent the activation conditions.

In one-on-one situations, Mori never worries about winning or losing; over the years, he has seen someone who can break his ability in a one-on-one fight.

However, when dealing with two people at the same time, his abilities began to fall short.

'If Uluru were still here, I could have had him take me for a spin, and there wouldn't be so much trouble...'

Mori sighed inwardly, thinking that after all these years, only his former companions were truly compatible with him.

But now is not the time to reminisce about the past; his intuition told him that the enemy was already at his doorstep.

Should we take the initiative or temporarily avoid confrontation?

Mori frowned and quietly reached into his pocket with his right hand.

Feeling the rough texture in his hands, he felt that the goddess of victory was still on his side.

'With this help, we should be able to win!'

Mori secretly began preparing for a direct confrontation.

This stone was a treasure he obtained five years ago during a period of great chaos at the International Relics Department, when he took advantage of the confusion to kill a bandit.

With this stone as his aid, he was able to barely survive the hunter's clutches five years ago, and now he has a chance of winning against the two attacking enemies!

The next moment, dazzling golden and purple light streaked across the air, and amidst the violent changes in airflow, it plunged directly towards the ground without hesitation!

boom!boom!

A fierce wind roared, air surged, rocks flew everywhere, and thick dust billowed. The terrifying impact made the entire forest tremble.

Mori's entire body aura shifted, surging wildly towards his hands as he prepared to charge at the two falling figures, activating his ability directly.

Suddenly he seemed to sense something, his expression changed, and he looked up at the sky.
