Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

"It's very orderly, but isn't that more troublesome? In other words, the ferocious beasts in the forest are all under control. If we touch their life source, they'll probably fight us to the death."

Fu Long considered a possibility: the reason the ferocious beast king hadn't shown itself was to see what they were up to before making a decision.

Jin nodded and said, "That's quite possible."

"This isn't just possible, it's certain," Fu Long sighed and said, "Why don't we go into the water and check the situation first?"

"The water will definitely be drained. This is a flowing body of water, and the groundwater replenishes all the losses every day. If we want to drain the lake completely, we must first block the spring below."

This makes things even more difficult, since no one knows where the underground spring is.

"Let's get ready to go into the water."

Following the order, Locke's men began preparations, and piles of underwater equipment were brought out, one for each person, including Fu Long.

"Should we prepare some stones or something? We can just block it up if we find anything," Fu Long asked, stepping forward. He also had a hidden compartment in his sleeve where he could carry things.

“No need, Finch has already brought it.” Fu Long looked at Finch, who smiled at him and then took out a bag and showed it to Fu Long.

There were some pretty stones in the bag. Fu Long guessed that once those stones left the bag, they would probably grow bigger, about the same size as Xiao's abilities.

"Let's change into our diving gear and go." Jin also changed into his gear, which was very useful underwater.

"Fu Long, come change your equipment," Finch called out.

Nine skulls appeared around Fu Long and surrounded him: "You can change them, I don't need them."

"Oh, does that mean these nine skeletons can go into the water? That looks pretty good." Jin looked at the nine-headed skeleton, his eyes gleaming.

No one came to ask Fu Long to wear equipment anymore. After all, there are all kinds of telekinesis, so no one thought Fu Long was bragging.

Once everyone was fully equipped, they went into the water. Locke was left behind to guard the camp and maintain contact with the outside world.

Jin Yi took the lead, Fu Long was placed in the middle, and Finch was at the back, guarding the dozen or so people they brought.

Although these people do not yet possess telekinesis, they are all armed with spears and are not without fighting power underwater.

The lake water was a bit chilly, but that didn't bother Fu Long at all.

Fu Long suddenly had an idea. He wondered how much water his hidden compartment could hold. If possible, he might be able to take all the water with him.

But the idea only flashed through my mind, as the time wasn't right yet.

The people in front turned on their underwater lights, illuminating the surroundings.

Some small fish swam past them leisurely, but others watched these uninvited guests warily before darting away as they arrived.

"Something big is coming, watch out!" Jin in front gestured to the people behind.

Fu Long can speak here, but in the water, no one else can hear him, so he can only make hand gestures.

With a whoosh, the enormous creature in the water exerted a powerful impact, crashing head-on into Fu Long and his companions.

It was a huge white fish, with more than a dozen upright scales on its body. If you were to get caught on one of those scales, it would definitely leave a dent.

The lakebed was indeed fraught with danger.

Chapter 172 The City in the Lake

The big fish arrived quickly, and the psychic power in the golden hand surged, soon forming a long thorn.

In water, such telekinetic spikes are still quite lethal.

Everyone else held their harpoons horizontally in front of their chests to guard against the upcoming impact, since the big fish was coming at such a speed that it would be impossible to dodge it.

The big fish was quite clever. Just as it was about to collide with the gold, it flicked its tail, changed direction, and then charged towards the group from the side.

Fu Long swung his nine-toothed rake and blasted it towards the big fish.

However, the big fish simply twisted its body quickly and deflected the nine-toothed rake.

In the water, the power of the Nine-Toothed Rake was diminished.

At this moment, the big fish had already rushed close. Fu Long was surrounded by nine skulls, so he was naturally not afraid. When the big fish rammed into him, he could definitely defend against it, but his body was only bounced away a little.

The ordinary team members behind them also quickly speared the big fish with harpoons.

They were quite strong; the big fish crashed into the harpoon but wasn't injured. Instead, it knocked all the people away a distance.

"Damn it, underwater combat is such a hassle." Fu Long took a deep breath. With the help of the Nine-Headed Skull, there was no water around him.

The big fish turned its head and charged back again, this time heading straight for the gold.

Jin's telekinetic spikes were aimed perfectly this time, suddenly thrusting out.

However, the distance was quite far, and then the long spikes suddenly extended, moving at a very fast speed.

The big fish sensed the danger and tried to create some distance, but it was too late. The long thorns cut open its side, and blood flowed out.

Fu Long rushed forward quickly, and the nine-headed skull suddenly opened wide, not only covering him but also the entire giant fish.

The big fish swam a few times, but then realized something was wrong; it seemed it wasn't in the water.

More importantly, once out of the water, fish stop breathing. This is due to their physiological structure; they are fine in the water, but once on land, they are doomed to die.

Fu Long's nine-toothed rake came crashing down and struck the big fish on the head.

Surprisingly, the sound was still transmitted.

The big fish rolled its eyes and its whole body flipped over.

He was struck on the head so hard that his brain was shattered; it was impossible for him to survive.

Then, Fu Long reached out again, revealing a hidden space in his sleeve, and directly took in the corpse of the big fish.

As the nine-headed skull contracted, it was surrounded by water once again.

Jin sent a signal, instructing everyone to sink to the bottom, because the presence of blood would soon attract other ferocious aquatic beasts.

Another battle would be troublesome.

The group sank rapidly and soon reached the bottom of the lake.

Jin greeted everyone and asked them to form a circle before coming to Fu Long's side and making a few hand gestures.

Fu Long understood what the other party meant, so he opened the nine-headed skull and covered Jin with it.

Jin quickly removed his mask and looked around in surprise, saying, "This is really interesting. It can even repel water. Could this space be any bigger?"

Fu Long nodded and said, "It's definitely possible to increase it, but the consumption of Nen will also increase. If everyone is included, plus our actions, I estimate that with my Nen capacity, I can only last for about three hours at most."

"I see. Then we'll use it at the crucial moment." After saying that, Jin put on his diving mask again before signaling to enter the water once more.

Continuing forward, the distance was still quite far. This time, everyone moved close to the lakebed to avoid the huge fish-like beasts overhead.

The lake bottom grew increasingly dark, and when they could only see ahead with their lights, Jin stopped and gave Fu Long a signal.

Fu Long unleashed his nine-headed skull, enveloping everyone within it.

Here, there is air, so people have turned on their diving masks.

"Oh, you can breathe underwater? That's quite an ability," even Finch exclaimed in amazement.

“I think so too.” Jin nodded, then looked ahead.

"Have we arrived?"

"That's right, so everyone, please open your eyes wide and look carefully. This is the city we are taking to the mainland, Pasla City."

As he spoke, Jin clasped his hands together, and when he opened them again, a sphere of light, like the sun, appeared in his palms.

The ball wasn't big, only about the size of a ping-pong ball, but the light it emitted made Fu Long close his eyes; it was too bright to open them completely.

"Go, underwater sun, cold flame sun."

Jin waved forward, and the ping-pong ball-like sphere flew towards the lake.

Before long, it floated about fifty meters above our heads.

The light on the orb lit up, illuminating the entire area.

A great city appeared before everyone's eyes.

This city has no walls. Although it was a place where ten kingdoms met, Pasla did not build city walls at the time, and people could enter from any gap in the city at any time.

Under the cold, blazing sun, the entire city was clearly visible. There weren't many tall buildings; the tallest building was located right in the center.

However, the entire city is now submerged underwater, overgrown with green algae, and occasionally, fish can be seen swimming around in the city.

As you can see, although the city is submerged, the damage is not severe. If it were to be brought out of the water, it could be restored to its former state with proper repairs.

"How magnificent!" The team members who had come with them exclaimed in amazement.

Jin opened his arms and said, "That's right, such relics can't just be left submerged in water; we need to bring them back to the light of day."

"Ahem, Jin, the idea is good. Shouldn't we find the spring first? If we don't block the underground source, I estimate that the chances of us draining the water from the lake are zero," Finch said calmly.

Jin swayed and almost fell. At this crucial moment, when he was just getting emotional, you said that.

Fu Long laughed along and said, "The spring should be in the city, right?"

“Yes,” Finch analyzed. “This city is located at the very center of the lake, a circular city with a diameter of about twenty kilometers. It is also the lowest point in the lake, so the spring must be in this city.”

Fu Long nodded and pointed to the tall building in the very center: "So, that's the center point?"

"That's right, it is indeed the center, but the center was the royal palace at that time. The highest point was the Xuanzheng Tower. It is said that any orders were announced through that highest point."

"I understand, it's kind of like a radio station."

"Your understanding is correct. Our current mission is to enter the city, but the danger will also increase, so be careful."

Jin turned around and said, and Fu Long nodded. "So, is this how you plan to enter? If so, my mental strength won't last long."

Chapter 173 The Ferocious Beast King in the Water

When they finally entered the city, they didn't let Fu Long keep his nine-headed skull open, because it was too taxing on his mental energy.

Furthermore, once they enter the city, there might be battles, and Fu Long will be a key player in those battles.

The group slowly made their way through the city.

Thanks to Leng Yanyang overhead, the view here is quite clear. As long as you're careful not to get ambushed, there shouldn't be any problems.

The group moved forward quickly, and the team members then demonstrated their abilities.
