Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 366 Chimeric Ant Genes

"Then let's part ways here." Spina said goodbye to Xiao Jie and the others.

They are Kate's companions, and they are worried about Kate, but they know their own situation. If they go to NGL without any strength, it would be nothing more than suicide.

All they could do was wait quietly.

"Are you planning to follow us around forever?" Killua said, sounding a little annoyed.

"Looks like you lack respect for your seniors!" Lucci angrily rubbed Killua's head again.

"Clearly, they're not that much older than us!" Killua said bluntly.

"Oh, didn't I tell you? I'm actually almost fifty years old," Lucci said.

"Is he already an old man?!" Killua blurted out his thoughts, and was then slammed to the ground.

"You've already learned your lesson from Bisky, why are you still provoking me like this!" Lucci squinted at Killua, who was being crushed by gravity.

"You know Bisky?" Xiao Jie was quite happy; in that case, Bisky could be considered a friend and companion.

As for Killua, he had some doubts.

"Just how many abilities do you have?" Since they met, Lucci has already demonstrated three abilities.

He's nothing compared to that guy Bisky.

Especially the ability that is now being used on him.

"As expected of the Zoldyck family, being able to withstand this kind of gravity at this age is already quite impressive."

If we don't judge them by the standards of genius.

The gravity on Killua increased even more.

He was rendered speechless, and it took him about 30 seconds to relax, but he was already panting heavily.

"With your current level, you won't be able to get into NGL."

Their current level is no match for Nakoruru and Shuto, and even with Bisky's help in training, it hasn't changed the outcome.

Although Lucci says he's almost fifty, if he were to revert to his original appearance, he would be no more than twenty years old, not much different from how he looks now.

This is the result of cultivating the mind, as well as the result of cultivating the "iron block," which also includes the effects of many cultivation drugs.

At least in terms of maintaining youthful appearance, things have become much simpler.

"But I'm not Bisky, I won't give you special training." Noticing Killua's expression after he stood up, Lucci refused.

Now we're just waiting for an ant king to be born, to grow under the guidance of wheat, and then to save the day when that old man Netero is no longer able to function.

As for whether or not to have some fun, we'll have to see how things go.

Lucci led them first to the town's bulletin board hall to learn about something.

By clicking on the erased text, we can tell that the two "assassins" have arrived.

Then I felt a special "thought" behind me.

Nob's disciple, Pum, has entered the scene.

"The president didn't say there were any other people." Pangm's unfriendly gaze was fixed on Lucci.

Pum, a disciple of the Expeditionary Force Nob, made a very strong impression with his strange appearance and aura when he first appeared.

She also has a somewhat yandere personality.

She is an Enhancement-type Devil Fruit user with the ability "Lonely Deep-Sea Fish." It seems that her "love" for Nob enhanced her "vision," granting her a decent support ability.

The made-up version of Pum was not bad. In the anime, he infiltrated the palace for intelligence, was eventually discovered, and was then transformed into a Chimera Ant.

Lucci recalled the relevant information in his mind.

Thinking about this, Lucci had another thing that interested him: the modification technology of the chimeric ants.

This seems to be some kind of "ability" of Butterfly Owl Yapf, one of the three Royal Guardians.

After the queen ant disappeared, the king ant also failed to find a "partner". In order to have enough subordinates to conquer the world, what "abilities" does Shayapof possess?

Of course, Lucci is still unsure whether it is an ability.

Pum was one example of humans being transformed into chimera ant soldiers, and there were five thousand more, only to be taken away by Pariston in the end.

This method is somewhat similar to human modification, and Lucci thought of several well-known large companies in his world.

And one of the former Pachi tribe members.

Judging from his combat performance, Shayapov may not be strong, but if we consider the Chimera Ants' development threat, then Shayapov is the most threatening.

Furthermore, the other party can also help the Chimera Ants develop Nen abilities.

It seems we'll need to investigate that further when the time comes.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? Why have you been pondering for so long?" Killua asked Lucci.

Lu Qi stopped thinking.

"Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Lucky Phoenix. I was hoping to see some old acquaintances, but it seems I'll have to leave for a bit."

Lucci prepared to go back and learn more about the relevant information.

Lucci looked down on this kind of "human modification".

But I don't mind at all mastering this knowledge and skills. After all, not everyone is a genius. If I can't use it myself, I can pass it on to my subordinates.

After saying that, he disappeared right in front of Xiao Jie and the others.

Return to your own world, return to the Sky Arena, and issue orders directly.

Soon, proactive information and intelligence were all laid out on Lucci's desk.

This is one of the advantages of having power; you don't need to do things yourself, you can delegate them to your subordinates.

This information includes data from companies under Lucci, companies that collaborate with Lucci, and companies under the world's top ten conglomerates.

Many of them are very taboo.

It involves not only genetic modification, but also "alien" combinations.

Lucci also saw experimental data on using the hearts of monsters instead of human hearts, and this was considered a relatively basic experiment.

These messages are filled with gore.

It took Lucci almost a whole day just to read through all this information.

"The strength of chimeric ants lies in their ability to absorb the genes of other superior races and pass them on to the next generation. In other words, the genetic fusion stability of chimeric ants is quite high."

Among this data, Lucci had also seen experiments on chimera ants, but not the kind of chimera ants with human body shapes from the Dark Continent.

Instead, it is a small chimeric ant of that first-level isolated species.

It has to be said that they are very daring. If they accidentally cause an experimental accident, it could cause great harm.

According to experimental data, these small chimeric ants are indeed terrifying and extremely aggressive.

However, there is an upper limit to their ability to perfectly absorb all genes. If an organism is too large, the chimeric ant queen will be unable to safely give birth to it.

If the eggs are too large, the queen ant will not get enough nutrition, and laying eggs may even cause her to burst open.

Unless it is a gradual process involving multiple generations of improvements and changes.

Unfortunately, there is only experimental data within three generations, and the third-generation queen ant is already the size of a mouse.

Unfortunately, there was no follow-up, and it's unknown how many generations of experiments were conducted at most.
