Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World.

Chapter 252 The Strongest in Two Worlds! The Changes of Mo Laowu and His Companion!

That strongest Lynn?!

How did I end up here?

"I didn't expect—even you would participate?!"

Mo Laowu's voice trembled, and his eyes behind his sunglasses were wide open, somewhat incredulous at the scene before him.

At that moment, he finally understood.

The last person Chairman Netero mentioned was Lynn!

He really didn't expect Lynn to actually make a move.

Norb was also surprised, not expecting Lynn to be the last member.

"President, is it really necessary for us to invite Mr. Lynn as well?"

Nobu hesitated for a moment, then asked Chairman Netero beside him.

He felt that this was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Their team now has four members, including two of the world's strongest!

One is the former strongest Chairman Netero, and the other is the current strongest Mr. Lynn.

These two strongest players are in the same team.

It's not about dealing with V5 or top-tier teams —

This was solely to address a unique type of chimeric ant that had never been heard of before.

Even if a Chimera Ant that can use Nen appears, is it really necessary to deploy such a powerful force?

"Yes, President, we shouldn't need to trouble Mr. Lynn, right?"

Mo Laowu, standing beside him, echoed Nobu's words.

Although they had obtained some intelligence before setting off, and knew that there were Chimera Ants that could use Nen.

It is indeed surprising that ants can use "thought".

But in such a short time since its birth, how far can it cultivate to?

It's important to understand that cultivating mindfulness requires a gradual and persistent process; it takes a long time and consistent practice to see results.

Unaware of the terrifying talent of the Chimera Ants of the Dark Continent, the two did not believe that the enemy they were about to face could be that strong.

Besides, aren't Kate and the other two doing just fine?

Therefore, it seems that we did not encounter any very dangerous situation, right?

As seasoned hunters, the two of them would naturally not underestimate their enemies.

Caution is a fundamental quality that every qualified hunter should possess.

Ultimately, it was the timing of the chimeric ant's emergence that misled the two.

Despite imagining the Chimera Ants as far-fetched as possible, the two still didn't think that facing them required Lynn and Netero to act simultaneously.

They have no problems; in fact, they've been very cautious.

Unfortunately, we still don't know much about the Chimera Ants of the Dark Continent, and we can't imagine the terrifying talent of our enemies.

Compared to humans, their talents are indeed terrifyingly high.

At that moment, Xiao Jie, who was extremely excited, seized the opportunity, bowed deeply, and said sincerely, "Lynn, thank you!"

"Thank you so much for saving us last night!"

He didn't know what he would have done if Lynn hadn't shown up last night.

He found it hard to accept the way things were handled: being knocked unconscious and taken away by Qi, leaving only the one-armed Kate to fight alone.

"It was nothing," Lynn said, unconcerned.

Upon hearing this, Netero and the other two realized that Lynn had met with Kate and the others the night before.

It is said that Lynn saved them at a critical moment of life and death.

I see, now I understand.

Kate and her two companions encountered a formidable foe, but thanks to Mr. Lynn's arrival, they were safe and sound.

But that's quite normal, isn't it?

After all, Lynn is so strong that it's reasonable that the Chimera Ants are no match for him.

"Mo Laowu, Norbu."

"Unfortunately, you have indeed underestimated the Chimera Ant."

Before Netero could speak, Lynn asked the question first.

"Let me ask you some questions first. Do you know who these two children are?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Laowu and Norbu exchanged a glance, then turned to look at Lynn with hesitant expressions.

"This—we really don't know, what's their background?"

Mo Laowu scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that these two children have some kind of important background?

"Then let me introduce myself to you."

"This silver-haired child's name is Qi, his full name is Qi Zoldyck!"

Lynn pointed to Qi beside him and said in a calm tone.

But what he said surprised Mo Laowu and the other man greatly.

"Could it be that legendary assassin family, the Zoldyck family?"

Nob reacted the fastest, recognizing it as the surname of the world's number one assassin family.

"That's right, Kessa is a member of the Zoldyck family, and he's the most talented kid of this generation."

These words caused Mo Laowu and Norbu to turn their attention to Qi, scrutinizing him from head to toe.

Qi Ya took a small step back, feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at by the two of them.

"Cough cough."

Netero coughed twice, and Mo Laowu and Nobu finally withdrew their gazes, which had been fixed on the animals as if they were rare creatures.

The members of the Zoldyck family are more mysterious than rare animals; most people in the world have never seen their true faces.

It is said that a single photo of a Zoldyck member can fetch a large sum of money, and there are long-standing online bounties for information about Zoldyck family members.

"So they're from the Zoldyck family? That's quite an impressive background."

"And what about this child?"

Mo Laowu sighed, then turned his gaze to Xiao Jie with the spiky hair.

Since the silver-haired child in front of us seems to be named "Qi" and has such an impressive background.

This child must be pretty good too.

Come to think of it, I feel like I've seen this face somewhere before.

Mo Laowu frowned slightly, feeling as if he had vaguely seen this face somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it; he probably had only glanced at it once.

"You all know about the Pig (亥) in the Twelve Earthly Branches—it represents Metal, right?"

Lynn glanced at Xiao Jie, whose face resembled Jin's, except Jin was even more unkempt.

In that sense, Xiao Jie's eyebrows and eyes do indeed resemble Jin's somewhat—a bold yet extremely reasonable thought emerged in Mo Laowu's mind.

"Could it be—" Mo Laowu stared intently at Xiao Jie, somewhat incredulous.

"That's right, he's Kim's son!"

Lynn's words completely confirmed Mo Laowu's idea, causing the two of them to show expressions of shock.

"Is he really the son of that Pig?"

Norbton was taken aback; this answer was truly unexpected.

"Hehehe, he really is King's son, Lynn was right." Netero stroked his beard and laughed.

"Hmm? One of them is the most talented child of the new generation of the Zoldyck family."

"The other one is the Pig (亥) of the Twelve Earthly Branches, the son of the Gold (金) who is known as one of the world's five greatest Nen abilities?"

The more Norb spoke, the more shocked he became.

Because these two children are indeed from extraordinary backgrounds!

"Now that you know where these two people came from, I have one more question for you."

"Do you know how long it's been since these two children started learning to recite?"

Lynn raised another finger, his expression and tone full of meaning.

"this----"

Mo Laowu and the other man simultaneously used [Condensation] to examine the two little ones again in detail.

They hadn't paid attention before, but now that they looked closely, they realized the problem.

The layer of spiritual energy on the two children was clearly very solid, indicating that their basic skills were excellent.

From this point of view alone, these two have already surpassed many predecessors who have been immersed in the practice of "Nian" for a long time.

"Their strength is not low, especially their basic skills are extremely solid, so they must have undergone very professional training."

Mo Laowu has a pretty good eye; he was able to guess the general idea just by looking at the two of them's spiritual energy.

That is indeed the case.

Their mentor is the veteran Bisji.

"Considering their age, most of them are around ten years old, so it's impossible for them to cultivate for too long."

"I think they must have cultivated for about three to five years to reach their current strength."

Mo Laowu analyzed it very carefully and finally came to the conclusion of three to five years.

Norb, who was standing next to him, also agreed with Mo Laowu's conclusion. His analysis was very reasonable, and this was most likely the answer.

Even considering the two children's backgrounds and deliberately exaggerating their talents, Mo Laowu could only come to this conclusion in the end.

After all, it's not easy to cultivate to the level that the two little ones have reached.

This is a level that most Nen users, even in their entire lives, cannot reach.

Even the best Nen users would need at least double-digit years to train to this level.

Unfortunately, their guesses were wrong.

"No, only a year has passed since they began cultivating [Nian]!"

Lynn said something that shocked Mo Laowu and the other man even more.

"How is this possible? Reaching this level in just one year of training?!"

Nob could no longer remain calm; he felt his worldview was about to collapse.

When did the practice of mindfulness become so simple?

Is this true?

Mo Laowu asked Xiang Qi, his face showing an expression of disbelief.

"Yes, Xiao Jie and I started practicing [Nian] together, and it's been about a year now."

Qi Ya subconsciously recalled the time he spent training in the Sky Arena.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

"What an astonishing talent! To have achieved this in just one year—"

Nob's exclamation abruptly stopped; in his shock, he was unable to utter a word.

He had always considered himself to be a fairly outstanding Nen user.

Having trained his Nen abilities for many years, his strength has surpassed that of most Nen users.

He could be proud of his talent.

However, it wasn't until he met these two children today that he realized what a true genius is like.

Compared to Qi Ya and the others, his prized talent was utterly insignificant!

At this moment, Norb's arrogance was completely shattered!

He, who had initially put on an arrogant expression and dismissed the two children's performance, finally realized the difference in their talents.

There is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world.

The only thing that could comfort Nob was that his Nen ability was pretty good and he should be able to beat the two children.

Mo Laowu remained silent, but quietly took the large pipe off his shoulder.

He needed to take a smoke to calm himself down and compose himself.

After unwrapping the cloth strips, a gleaming large pipe appeared before them.

So that thing was a pipe?

Qi found it strange that Mo Laowu was carrying a large pipe.

He had initially thought it would be some kind of weapon like a big hammer. Did he usually use this big pipe to attack?

"Phew~"

Mo Laowu took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke.

Since there were no enemies, Morel did not use his Nen ability to control the white smoke, but let the smoke drift away.

"So-called geniuses, huh?"

Mo Laowu spoke slowly and deliberately, and after smoking a cigarette, his mood finally calmed down a bit.

It's no wonder the two were startled; Qi and Xiao Jie's talents are indeed frighteningly high.

Ji-hee is a genius that only one in 100,000 people can achieve.

A year later, Zhixi also achieved her goal of becoming a landlord-level figure, demonstrating her strength.

Becoming the host as a child has broken the record for the youngest host in Sky Arena.

Ji-hee's talent is terrifying, but she is still far inferior to Xiao-jie and the other two.

Xiao Jie and Qi are top geniuses that only one in ten million will be born!

The difference in talent between the two is hundreds of times!

Yun Gu's assessment was also correct, as can be seen from the two people's cultivation speed.

As a member of the Zoldyck family, Qi was already extremely talented, and being the child with the purest bloodline in this generation, it's reasonable that he possessed such talent.

Needless to say, Xiao Jie is even more so.

As a member of the Freecss family, he has an ancestor named East Freecss who is still venturing into the Dark Continent.

There's also his father, King Freecss, who is in his prime and one of the world's five greatest Nen users.

This family's talent is even stronger than that of the Zoldyck family, so it's perfectly reasonable for them to have talent on the scale of millions.

Top-tier talent, coupled with the guidance of renowned teacher Bisji, enabled him to acquire such strength in just one year.

Even Morel and Nobu, who are already elite Nen users, were still intimidated by the talents of the two children.

In their shock, both of them simultaneously thought of the same thing.

If the Zoldyck family and Ging's child could be this scared, then how strong must the enemy they are facing be?

Upon realizing this, their expressions changed from shock to gloom, and they no longer held the same contemptuous attitude as before.

This time, the enemy is probably not so simple!

Seeing the change in Mo Laowu and Nob's thinking, Lynn nodded slightly.

Having confidence is a good thing, but arrogance is not.

The worst thing a hunter can do is underestimate his enemy.

Of course, Mo Laowu and the other man hadn't actually done anything wrong; it was just that the Chimera Ants were too unconventional, so he casually gave them a few pointers to make them realize the problem.

"Hehehe, looks like she's come to her senses~"

Seeing the change in the two men, Netero immediately understood that their thinking had been corrected.

"To be honest, I did underestimate it before, thinking it was making a mountain out of a molehill."

"It wasn't until Mr. Lynn revealed their identities and talents that I realized the enemy's strength was far beyond what I had imagined!"

"I can't even imagine how strong an enemy must be to scare a Zoldyck kid and a King kid like that."

As Mo Laowu spoke, he smoked a cigarette, trying to calm himself down, while glancing at Lynn out of the corner of his eye.

"Want to know? I can show you what happened last night." Lynn looked at Qi. "Don't resist."

Then, with a casual wave of his hand, Pudding appeared beside him.

Her fingertips glowed faintly, and strands of memory drifted out from Qi's body, then swept over everyone else's bodies.

It wasn't just Netero and his two companions who wanted to know what was going on; Gon also wanted to know exactly what happened last night.

As Qi's memory threads swept through, everyone felt as if they were there, experiencing the dramatic events of the previous night from Qi's perspective.

At first, the three of them were fine, following the chimeric ants to find the location of the ant nest.

Suddenly, a chimera ant in the form of a cat appeared almost instantly and severed Kate's arm in a flash.

Then it unleashed an incredibly terrifying aura!

Even though it was just a memory, Mo Laowu and the others instinctively trembled, vaguely sensing the terrifying atmosphere and extremely panicked emotions—it was as if they were in hell!

At this moment, Mo Laowu and Norbu finally understood.

Their previous assumptions were completely wrong!

That chimeric ant was indeed an extremely terrifying being!

Even if it's just a memory, they're certain that if they had encountered Catwoman in that situation, their fate would have been unpredictable.

As for Xiao Jie and Qi, these two children have experienced such a strong impact, and their current performance is already quite good.

They were too arrogant.

Chimera ants are just too unreasonable.

How could there be such an enemy?

Just then, Lynn appeared in my memory. His appearance gave those around him a great sense of security, and the pressure seemed to disappear instantly.

Following this, Lynn swiftly defeated the powerful Catwoman, even subduing her and making her his subordinate, who is now being sent to act as a spy.

The scenes played one after another, and then it ended in no time.

Mo Laowu and Norbu remained silent.

Then Mo Laowu spoke first, his tone heavy: "I'm sorry, it's our fault."

"I retract my previous statement; you have performed very well."

"I also retract my previous statement," Norb echoed.

They experienced the terror of the catwoman, the unease of the strange, and the power of Lynn. While feeling embarrassed for the two little ones, they were also shocked by Lynn's strength.

No wonder he's the strongest in the world.

Even such an exaggerated chimeric ant, in Lynn's hands, was like a real "ant", and he fought with ease, defeating the enemy with seemingly little effort.

They even displayed an unknown but powerful Nen tool that could subdue such enemies and turn them into their subordinates.

Mo Laowu and Norbu were extremely impressed.

If Qi and Xiao Jie are top-tier geniuses, then Mr. Lynn is the number one genius, right?

Fortunately, Mr. Lynn was there.

Now their mindset has completely changed.

From initially thinking that Lynn was unnecessary, to now thinking that it's great to have Lynn around.

Of course, they still felt that the current configuration was sufficient, and Qi's statement was a bit of an exaggeration.

But now they can understand Qi Ya's feelings.

After all, they had just gone through such an ordeal and learned that there were even stronger enemies ahead. It was only natural for them to want more and stronger helpers.

After sharing memories, there were no barriers within the team.

Qi Ya also admitted that perhaps he had indeed gone a bit too far.

With Lynn and Chairman Netero around, there shouldn't be any problems.

In my memory, Lynn never seems to make any mistakes; he has never failed, and I suppose this time will be no different.
