Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

Fu Long nodded. In fact, with his strength, he could have come here by himself, but that wouldn't have been interesting. It was more fun to come with Xiao Jie and the others.

Once inside, we exchanged a secret code and ordered a steak set meal.

How well cooked?

I want to bake it slowly over a low flame.

Once inside, the food was already on the table. The contestants could rest and have something to eat here before arriving at their destination.

"One in ten thousand chance, that's quite an achievement for you guys. Keep up the good work, and I'd be happy to continue serving you next year."

The dragon head is covered in black lines; how confident are you that we can't get through?

Sitting at the table, the elevator descended, and the group ate their meal. Kurapika and Leorio explained to Gon that being a hunter was the noblest (and most lucrative) profession in the world, followed by various boasts.

Fu Long sat to the side, just smiling faintly. These people were still far from being hunters; they were only at the surface level at the moment.

Once they truly entered the world of hunters, they realized that this line of work was not easy.

The elevator quickly reached the 100th floor. When the elevator doors opened, the three men looked at the hundreds of menacing-looking guys with serious expressions.

Fu Long slowly walked forward. These people were not bad, but without Nen abilities, they were just ordinary people. In a fight, these people were no match for him.

How many people are there in total?

"Including you, there are 406 people in total." A voice came from above.

Fu Long looked up and saw a short, stout middle-aged man waving at them before leaping down from above.

"Dongba, the rookie killer, looks quite kind and gentle. Who would have thought he's such a cunning old fox?" Fu Long thought to himself, but didn't say anything.

He was looking around, searching for his target.

Hisoka will be out soon, but what about Illumi? His transformed face should be easier to spot.

"My name is Dongba." At this moment, Dongba jumped down and shook hands with them. On the other side, the bean-faced man gave them number plates.

Fu Long glanced at the sign in his hand, and sure enough, it was number 406.

The plot of the manga is slightly different here, because according to the story, this number doesn't exist. After all, the selection is about to begin after Gon and the others arrive.

Dongba is still pretending to be a good person inside, introducing everyone to the group of experts he can see around him.

For example, Peng Ba died at the hands of the bees, Chen Li died at the hands of Hisoka, Tuo Dou was slapped away by Buhara, and the three Amori brothers were later wiped out with a push, etc.

Fu Long listened, speechless. Why was what I heard different from what you described?

You described how ruthless they were, but all I heard were their miserable conditions.

Knowing the plot beforehand is a recipe for disaster; if everyone knew who was who, how could the game even begin?

"Ughhh~" A scream rang out, and everyone's attention turned to that direction.

Fu Long's brow twitched a few times; the fruit farmer had finally shown up.

On the other side, contestant number 58's arms had been severed at the elbows, and Hisoka stood calmly in front of him.

"Wow, that's amazing! How did your arm suddenly disappear? Be careful next time, and remember to apologize if you bump into someone."

Tonpa said helplessly, "Tch, the dangerous guy from last year is back again. Magician Hisoka, number 44."

A dangerous individual, a devil, who lost his qualification for assaulting an instructor.

Seeing how enthusiastically Dongba was introducing the product, Fu Long slapped his forehead. If Hisoka heard this, you'd be in big trouble.

Hisoka walked to the side, and the people around him quickly moved aside.

After thinking for a moment, Fu Long decided to go up and say hello. Rather than hiding like this, it would be better to face him directly. In fact, Hisoka might not take action if they met face to face.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" Dongba was also startled.

Even Xiao Jie and the others looked at Fu Long in surprise.

Fu Long had already walked up to Hisoka and stopped.

Hisoka also stopped, and the people on both sides looked at Fu Long and Hisoka in surprise, while secretly observing Fu Long.

How dare you stand in front of the magician Hisoka! Do you want to die?

"Oh dear, I never expected to see you here." Hisoka spoke first, but he didn't make a move, nor did he even use his Nen.

"I'm just here to say hello. Also, I hope the Hunter Test won't target me. I'm not your match yet. But I do have some good news for you. I saw a few dazzling gems in this test."

“You’re quite dazzling too.” Hisoka’s playing cards clattered in his hand.

Fu Long turned around and walked towards Xiao Jie: "I don't want to face you for now, it's too dangerous. I'd rather be an ordinary player."

"Heh, you've grown quite well," Hisoka said softly, then turned to the other side.

When Fu Long returned to the team, everyone was stunned.

"Do you know him?" Leorio asked bluntly, his tongue never leaving his mouth.

"I guess so. You'll understand eventually. It looks like the selection process is about to begin. Oh, and just a heads-up, he's dangerous, so try not to get close to him."

Xiao Jie and the others nodded, and when Fu Long looked again, he saw that Dongba had already left.

"You've already had your drinks?"

"How did you know?" Kurapika asked.

"Hehe, Dongba, the newbie killer, you guys better be careful."

Fu Long didn't say that Xiao Jie and the others would still encounter Dongba in the future, but that was none of his business.

“Ring ring ring…” Fu Long looked toward the sound of the bell.

To be honest, he also wants one of these alarm clocks; it's pretty good.

"Reporting time is here. The Hunter Test is officially beginning."

A figure leaped down, first saying a bunch of things about dying, and then led the way.

"It's starting," Fu Long said with a smile. "Everyone, give it your all."

Chapter 31 Hisoka's Fighting Abilities

Saci was already leading the way, and the speed was starting to increase.

Some of the people behind him had already started running, but Fu Long stayed close to Xiao Jie, because only in this way could he get to know the other protagonist, Killua.

Sure enough, a short while later, Killua passed by them on his skateboard.

Leorio shouted that it was a foul, and then Killua took the skateboard and asked Gon how old he was.

"twelve."

"The same age as me, uncle. What about you?"

Leorio roared, "I'm only a teenager, what are you calling an old man?"

"Huh?" Gon and Killua both looked at Leorio in surprise. Then Gon turned to Fu Long and asked, "What about you, Fu Long?"

"Eighteen." Fu Long was also quite helpless. Compared to Xiao Jie and Killua, he seemed to be a bit older.

"So mature." Killua's words almost made Fu Long furious. You might as well just say I'm old.

Fu Long glared at Killua, but Killua shrugged indifferently, not taking it seriously.

Well, at least we've gotten to know each other now.

The run continued, Leorio was giving it his all, and at the 60-kilometer mark, the first person to be eliminated was determined.

Fu Long didn't turn back. In the Hunter world, it's a dog-eat-dog world. Although Dongba is known as a rookie killer, all he does is eliminate batches of unqualified trainees.

For the Hunter Association, the existence of Tonpa might actually be something they welcome.

Fu Long is currently just thinking about whether he should participate in the Little Apple talent show that Xisuo is holding when they arrive at Shimeile Wetland. It seems like a good idea.

Otherwise, just following the others to the second gate seems rather boring.

Fu Long made a decision: to go and take a look. His main goal was to get closer to Xiao Jie, which was necessary.

Soon, the group reached the top of the stairs. Saji, who was ahead, moved a little faster. Fu Long, along with Gon and Killua, were in the first group.

Hisoka has been moved to the center.

Slowly, light appeared ahead. Saci leaped out a few times and rushed outside. Then, Fu Long and the others also rushed out of the underground passage. Looking into the distance, a vast wetland unfolded before their eyes.

“The Shimeile Wetlands are commonly known as ‘the den of con artists.’ Everyone must stay close to me. If we fall into a trap, we will all die,” Saci explained, turning his head.

Fu Long looked around and saw that many people were sweating profusely and had very bad complexions.

It's obvious that their physical strength is beyond the limit.

"He's lying." The examiner, who was being sent to his death with a fake dead human-faced ape, appeared.

This guy is just an ordinary conman who, along with the human-faced ape, is trying to disrupt the candidates' rhythm.

Fu Long did not make a move, but I remember Hisoka did, which was a brief exchange between him and the examiner.

Fu Long didn't want to ruin this, lest Hisoka hold a grudge.

*Thud!* Several playing cards landed squarely on the swindler's face, and Fu Long shook his head in disbelief.

He could clearly see that this swindler had no Nen ability. With such strength, he dared to come out and swindle people. He really had a death wish.

As for the human-faced ape that faked its death, it was killed by Hisoka while it was escaping.

Satsuki remained expressionless, threw away the playing cards in his hand, looked at Hisoka, and gave him a warning.

However, Hisoka clearly didn't take it seriously.

Fu Long didn't take it seriously; it was just a minor incident that showed all the team members the cruelty of the Shimeile Wetland.

The group continued running, this time heading towards the second examination hall.

Along the way, Fu Long also witnessed the unique charm of the Shilemei Wetland, with countless strange creatures.

Of course, some creatures also came toward Fu Long, but after being hit by the poisonous stinger, they instantly lost their fighting ability and were then killed by Fu Long's heavy punch.

"Oh, you're really good." Killua, who was standing to the side, watched Fu Long make his move and his eyes lit up.

Fu Long just smiled. Killua was indeed an assassination genius, but without Nen abilities, he was still far from being a genius.

"You should worry more about yourself."
