Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 221 Disaster Occurs

"Has Morgan gone missing?" Byron had been summarizing his experiences along the way for the past few days and hadn't paid much attention to his companions who had returned with him.

He also has businesses in Cape Radboud.

"We can't get in touch with them at all, and things have been a bit chaotic at Cape Radboud these past few days. Something must have happened."

As one of the people who went to the Dark Continent with Byonde.

They know a lot of things.

Could it be that they brought something back from the Dark Continent?

This is not good news.

At this moment, Rafael, another teammate of Yang De, arrived.

"By Yonde, we've probably brought back something terrible." Raphael's face was extremely pale, and he then led By Yonde and Charlie to the laboratory with him.

There are several stray animals in the laboratory.

At this moment, their eyes were all red, and their bodies were radiating Nen energy.

"We found this inside them." Raphael immediately retrieved the internal information from the dissection of these stray animals.

Inside their bodies, white worms wriggle.

Dangerous creatures are ranked in multiple levels.

The evaluation is based on four aspects: ferocity towards humans, population size, reproductive capacity and rate of reproduction, and destructive power.

And now these insects have been discovered.

The danger level is directly A, meaning it will actively attack humans and can threaten the lives of most humans.

And the quantity is also at level A.

Its reproductive capacity and reproduction rate have also reached the A-level.

In terms of destructive power, it is only at the level of C-.

Of course, this was only Raphael's initial assessment.

"This kind of insect is a parasitic organism that invades and manipulates living organisms. The only good thing is that we haven't found any with sufficient intelligence yet."

It was only discovered today that much of the current research data is insufficient.

"We must seal off Cape Radboud immediately, or it could lead to a devastating disaster."

Raphael temporarily identified this insect as a "bloodsucking worm".

Research has shown that these insects require sufficient blood to survive, develop, and reproduce.

Yang De's face turned extremely pale.

He knew about the five major calamities, and if this matter was not handled properly, the harm it caused might be even more terrible than the five major calamities.

After all, at least the five major disasters at present are "restricted".

It hasn't caused much of a stir outside yet, except for Alluka later on.

Byrd immediately dialed the number of the Conrad family head in the city.

Inform them of the situation.

At the same time, immediately call Lu Qi to inform him of the situation.

Finally, after dialing the old man's number, he requested that the Hunter Association be entrusted to handle the matter by a specialized hunter.

At this time, Cape Lade was experiencing many incidents of pets injuring people, as well as some people exhibiting symptoms similar to rabies.

"Blood-sucking worms" have a longer incubation period in the human body and have not yet exerted enough terrifying power.

When Lucci received this news, he was surprised and immediately teleported to Cape Rad.

Flying high above Cape Radboud, Lucci extended his circle to its maximum extent, with a radius of over two thousand meters.

The Nen users at Cape Rad all looked up at the sky, sensing something.

Even B. Yangde and the others felt it.

"A circle of this size!" Charlie couldn't help but think. This is still a human.

Of course, Cape Rad is very large; even Lucci's circle cannot cover the entire Cape Rad. It's a pity that the Holy Grail system is not set up here, otherwise it would be nothing to Lucci.

This matter must be resolved as soon as possible; Cape Ladbee must not be affected.

Beneath Lucci's circle, he had already discovered many "oddities".

At the same time, Lucci started making phone calls.

Cape Radboud is too big; it requires sufficient force to blockade it and enough personnel to resolve the situation.

Mobilize the power of the Conrad family, the power of the Sky Arena, and the power of the various martial arts dojos.

In short, we should first blockade Cape Radboud.

Lucci, on the other hand, flew towards a target to assess the situation first.

Let's start with the animals that are "parasitized".

This "insect" spreads its infection by harming its target, transmitting its eggs along with the damage.

Because they are so tiny, they are hard to notice.

These eggs have a latency period within the organism's body.

The animals that are parasitized become extremely aggressive and need to replenish their blood supply, otherwise they cannot survive for long.

Upon examining his body, Lucci discovered that the Nen energy he felt came from these insects, which had helped open his pores.

"This quantity!" Lucci's expression turned to shock when his circular motion swept across the sewer.

There are many rats in the sewers, and they have all been infected.

Fortunately, these insects lack intelligence and do not use Nen even when parasitizing others. Furthermore, if one has sufficient protective gear or uses Entanglement to protect oneself, one will not be infected.

But ultimately, most of the people here don't know how to read.

Many people have been infected.

Being infected does not necessarily mean immediate danger to one's life. As long as the infected eggs have not yet hatched, or even if they have hatched, as long as the worms are removed from the body in time, there will be no danger to one's life.

A promotion might even turn out to be a blessing in disguise, prompting self-awakening.

When faced with stray animals, Lucci showed no mercy, simply setting them ablaze and burning them to ashes.

What makes these insects so terrifying is their stealth and their infectiousness.

Lucci also has corresponding methods for dealing with infected people.

Using thought to explore, it forms an ultrasound-like effect to understand the internal condition of the infected person, pinpoints the location, and uses vibration waves to dislodge it from the wound.

Only Lucci could pull off such a feat.

For others, surgery would probably be necessary.

After only a few attempts, Lucci gave up because it was too slow.

The number of infected people in Cape Radboud is far greater than previously thought.

Meanwhile, sirens blared at Cape Radboud.

It wasn't said to be an insect, but rather that it was a viral infection.

Some people, however, thought of the "zombies" in the secret realm of Kerry City.

It gives people a similar feeling.

As for Lucci, compared to a zombie, he was more like a "vampire" from a certain American TV series he had watched.

A banquet is being held in a hotel.

People from several companies were gathered here, and they all heard the sirens blaring throughout Cape Radboud.

"Don't worry, everyone. Our hotel has the most secure security system, and we've also hired martial arts masters from Kerry City, so your safety is absolutely guaranteed."

The hotel manager was present at the banquet.

They kindly prepared rooms for everyone, so you could choose to stay at the hotel and leave after everything was over.

With a loud bang, the wall shattered.
