Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 65 Overnight in the Rainforest

Suddenly, Omar stopped in his tracks.

The river not far away was stained red with blood.

A mangled giant python was standing nearby.

In the rainforest, this creature known as the Basen python is an absolute apex predator.

"It's a predator," Omar said immediately upon seeing the giant python.

Lucci simply took the opportunity to unfold his circle and survey the surrounding situation.

Bisky looked over.

Lucci shook his head.

As for the predator that Omar mentioned, Lucci and Bisky already knew what it was.

It is the monster in the commission quest issued by the Hunter Association.

The Patch tribe naturally noticed the appearance of this magical beast in the Basen Rainforest and named it "The Predator".

The top predator among the Basen.

The Basen rainforest is home to many animals, including tigers, leopards, gibbons, and Basen gorillas, which are preyed upon and killed.

Each time, it would leave behind a huge corpse, with bite marks on the body.

Because of its size, this "predator" cannot eat too many things. Of course, such a carcass in the rainforest will soon be eaten by other predators.

What's strange is that this monster seems to hate humans. Many adventure or research teams that enter the Basen Rainforest are attacked by it whenever they encounter it.

However, the Pach tribe is an exception.

"Omar, have you seen this predator?" Lucci asked.

Omar shook his head: "The predator is very strong and fast. Only Harris has ever seen it."

The Harris that Omar mentioned is the strongest among the Patch tribe.

Bisky immediately inquired.

Omar also shared some information, which he had learned from Harris.

First of all, this being called "Predator" is capable of communication.

This wasn't surprising to Bisky; monsters are an intelligent race, so their ability to communicate isn't anything extraordinary.

"Why hasn't this monster attacked the Patch tribe?" Bisky asked a crucial question.

"I don't know either," Omar replied, unable to answer either.

The three continued onward, but the rainforest was too vast, and Omar's progress was slow. After walking for half a day, it was already evening, and the Pachi tribe still hadn't arrived.

It looks like we'll be spending the night in the wild.

After finding a place to rest, Omar started a fire and prepared to go hunting.

Lucci, on the other hand, "released" Phoenix.

Actually, it was canceled first, and then summoned, because as Lucci's Nen increased, Phoenix could stay outside completely.

"Your Nen beast seems to have changed." Bisky's gaze was immediately drawn to it.

Despite the slight change in appearance, the perceptive Bisky noticed something at such close range.

"Really?" Lucci did not inform Biskey Phoenix of the changes.

The summoned Phoenix flew over the rainforest, making joyful calls as it did so.

As a magical creature, it prefers places like the Basen Rainforest to modern cities like Cree City.

She also conveyed to Lucci her desire to stay there permanently.

Lucci mentally indicated that he could.

It's a bit of a distance from Sky Arena, but still within acceptable range. Phoenix can come anytime; he can summon it at any time anyway.

There's no need to restrict it.

Phoenix quickly disappeared into the sky.

"No matter how many times I watch it, I still feel that Phoenix is ​​special, ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh, why can't my Miss Cookie be like this?"

Perhaps because of the comparison with Lucci, Bisky sighed a bit, feeling that her current achievements were not good enough.

Whether in martial arts or Nen ability, he is no match for Lucci.

"What can't we do?"

"We can't communicate, and we can't exist forever." Bisky knew that it would be difficult to do all that.

Before settling down in the Sky Arena, Bisky was homeless. Of course, as a strong person, this was nothing, but as a woman, she sometimes felt lonely.

If Miss Cookie could communicate, she wouldn't be so lonely when she goes on adventures in the future.

As for the possibility of it always existing, it requires a high level of Nen, and Bisky's current "Rejuvenation Technique" limits this possibility.

There are too few Nen beasts that can communicate.

Furthermore, Bisky is currently unwilling to further develop Miss Cookie's abilities, as spending time to enable Miss Cookie to communicate would be too much of a loss.

Lucci and Bisky didn't talk for long before Omar returned from hunting.

Then we started cooking; in this environment, we could only do simple grilling.

"Luckily we were prepared in advance." Lucci also came up to help, and took out some seasonings from his backpack.

"Thank you for your help, Lord Lucci."

"Won't these attract other wild animals from the rainforest?" Bisky asked, looking at the prepared corpses.

"I will be on guard tonight." There was nothing that could be done; even as a member of the Patch tribe, Omar couldn't solve this problem.

"That's easy." Lucci walked over, conjured a fireball from his hand, and threw it directly at the remaining remains. The flames quickly ignited, reaching temperatures far exceeding those of ordinary flames.

The blood was burned away and quickly turned into a charred mess.

Omar sensed the danger. As expected of Lord Lucci, he had also mastered the power of fire.

Omar was not unaware of the existence of Nen, but from the matches he had watched, none of the Nen abilities directly controlled fire like Lucci's.

"As for vigilance, that's easy too!" Lucci flicked his right sword finger, and a large circle of fire appeared.

Surprisingly, the fire circle only scorched some of the vegetation but did not spread.

"Has your Nen reached this level now?" Bisky couldn't help but ask this question, given the extent to which she was using her abilities so recklessly.

"A strong body and mind naturally lead to a stronger Nen (energy). I've eaten a lot of good food over the years, and you're experiencing that now, aren't you!"

Lucci's question reminded Bisky of some of the restaurant's set meals.

Lucci's reforms have created a dietary gap in the Sky Arena, as this world contains many culinary ingredients that are beneficial to the human body.

Given the money, Lucci certainly wouldn't be stingy.

By diligently cultivating oneself and absorbing the nutrients from those rare ingredients, the transformation of one's physical condition will also lead to changes in the amount of spiritual energy.

The stronger and healthier your body becomes, the more effective your training will be.

"The poor study literature, the rich study martial arts" is not just a simple saying. In the world of fantasy, it probably means that people are using spirit stones to cultivate every day.

Bisky clearly felt her evolution happening rapidly after just a few months in the Sky Arena.
