Living in Hunter x Hunter

Dongba was not the only one betrayed.

But only Dongba showed an expression of extreme sadness.

Lu Qi just watched, wondering if Dongba would become a "rookie killer" starting from this time?

"Alright, all you eliminated candidates, you can leave now. Be thankful, at least my exam didn't involve any danger."

Tommy started ushering people out. Even though this is the world's largest library, people who want to read here still need to qualify.

It's not open to the public for free.

The reason Tommy chose this place as the examination venue is because he is not only a hunter.

Indeed, compared to the danger of the first exam, the second exam was much safer.

Tommy then led the successful candidates away in an airship to the next examination site.

This time, the airship was heading to the wilderness.

We arrived at the edge of a forest, with a range of mountains stretching into the distance.

Someone was already waiting at the edge of the forest.

He was a burly man.

Hussum, the examiner for the third exam.

"Are there still so many people? Tommy, is your exam going to be the same again?" The examiner, named Hussum, seemed a little dissatisfied with the large number of candidates.

There are very few true professional hunters; even in the election arc of the anime, there were only 680 of them.

"This year's students are all very talented and intelligent."

This is Tommy's second time serving as an examiner for the Hunter Exam. Not many people passed the last exam.

The important thing is that this year's candidates were quite smart and willing to cooperate from the beginning.

If it weren't for that last little trick, it's possible that everyone would have passed it.

"And it's not just me; your exam format doesn't seem to have changed either, does it?"

The man in front of me is Tommy's senior. Back when Tommy took the hunter exam, Hussum was the examiner.

Not all hunter examiners are willing to ponder the content of the exam.

Generally speaking, when the Hunter Association asks for help, they will choose things from their own field as the test content.

Hearing the examiners' conversation, some candidates had a thought: does that mean if they don't pass this time, they'll have a much better chance next time they encounter the same situation?

But it's highly unlikely, because once you've served as an examiner for the Hunter Exam, it takes at least five years to become one again.

We will not allow a hunter to be an examiner for the Hunter Exam again in a short period of time.

"My mission is complete. Now it's your turn." Tommy waved goodbye and returned to the airship.

The airship didn't leave; it was clearly waiting for the third exam to finish.

"My name is Hussum, and I am also your examiner for the third exam."

"Next, I'm going to announce the content of the third exam. Listen carefully."

Hussum had a stern and unsmiling expression, making him seem difficult to deal with.

"What you see before you now is the Bremen Forest, and in the distance are the Bremen Mountains."

"This forest will be your exam location." He then snapped his fingers.

A buzzing sound began to appear, and dozens of palm-sized "bees" flew out from the forest.

But these "bees" are blood-red; upon closer inspection, they are actually blood-jade-colored.

Because of their size, the stingers on their tails are quite terrifying, giving them a ferocious appearance.

"These are Blood Jade Bees, and your test is to obtain their honey by any means necessary. This is the container we have prepared for you."

Behind Hussum was a pile of iron cylinders.

"And one more thing to remind you, whatever you do, don't go into the mountains," Husum warned.

This mountain range is home to many dangerous creatures, some of which are so dangerous that they need to be isolated, and there are also magical beasts among them.

"How is this possible? Blood Jade Bees are a dangerous species."

Some test takers also recognized the Blood Jade Bee.

There are rating standards for all kinds of creatures in this world.

However, the Blood Jade Bee has not yet been rated, which proves that its harm is limited, but it is still an extremely dangerous creature for ordinary people.

A single Blood Jade Bee is nothing special.

The problem is that bees move in groups, and if you want to get honey from Blood Jade Bees, you definitely need to go to the beehive.

That would trigger an unknown number of Blood Jade Bees.

It means that the living conditions are quite demanding, otherwise the Blood Jade Bee would probably have a rating.

Lucci, however, found the name somewhat familiar and immediately used his dream search ability.

The relevant information was obtained quickly.

Among the secret recipes for medicines in the Sky Arena, many of the medicinal food supplements require the use of special honey.

There are certainly many different kinds of special bees like the Blood Jade Bee all over the world.

Honey can also have different health benefits.

These honeys are very expensive.

If it's royal jelly honey, it could even sell for hundreds of millions of yen.

Once you become a hunter, you'll never be poor.

However, when Lucci uses his ability, Hussum will naturally notice.

It seems that someone will still pass his test.

As long as he's the examiner, all exams are the same; he won't even look at them.

Because of his exams, the casualties were relatively high each time.

Because in this forest, besides the Blood Jade Bees, there are other dangerous creatures as well.

They were all deemed dangerous by the relevant authorities, but no specific level of danger was assigned.

"You have a total of 7 days. At any time within those 7 days, as long as you can bring the honey to me, you will pass the test."

There is no requirement that the submission must be completed within seven days.

No matter how much Hussum wanted it, he wouldn't want the test takers to only think about stealing other people's honey to pass the exam.

"Then let's begin!" Hussum commanded.

All candidates took action.

They swarmed into the vast Bremen Forest.

Lucci, on the other hand, was leisurely, after all, his strength gave him confidence.

Perhaps related industries could be developed in Kerry.

As the controller of Kree City and Sky Arena, these two places are like blueprints in Lucci's hands, allowing him to plan them as he pleases.

This allows some schools of thought to proactively cultivate personnel with relevant knowledge.

After all, it would benefit the development of the martial arts dojo, so they probably wouldn't refuse.

After entering the forest, Lucci jumped directly onto a tree and then continued to leap forward from tree to tree.

This way of moving forward reminded him of a certain anime.

As they moved forward, Lucci released Phoenix, who had already rested.

Upon emerging into the vast forest, Phoenix was filled with excitement and began to fly away, disappearing from sight in an instant.

Feeling Phoenix's joyful mood, Lucci let it play wherever it wanted.

I observed the area for a while.

Is it possible that they prepared something because they were worried that the test takers wouldn't know what the Blood Jade Bee looked like?

No Blood Jade Bee nests were found nearby.
