Another person, the light of the knife flashed, and a cold light appeared... His movements were smooth, and he kept cutting the enemies into pieces.
In a corner of the warehouse, several intruders were watching this scene with indifferent and cold expressions, unmoved, and without any intention of helping. It seemed that just relying on two companions was enough to deal with the Mafia forces.
The leader of the Troupe, Chrollo, crossed one leg, sat on a box containing firearms, and slowly put down his phone.
"Has the car not arrived yet? Why are Franklin and Feitan so slow!"
Machi leaned against the wall, rested her head on her hands, glanced at the warehouse door, and said lightly.
Pakunoda, who was in front of Chrollo, raised a silver pistol, and shot down one by one some of the targets in her vision who were trying to approach or shoot.
She put down the smoking muzzle, put one hand on her hip, and turned her head to look at the leader, "Is it Shalnark? How is it over there?"
"Phinks is dead."
Chrollo said calmly.
As soon as he said this, the expressions of several people present changed instantly.
The atmosphere instantly froze...
"Shalnark wasn't with him when it happened. This result... He mostly brought it on himself." Chrollo put his hands in his coat pockets, and said slowly in a calm and composed tone.
"The other party's identity..."
"I already know... Let's wait for Shalnark to come back first."
Chrollo's eyes were peaceful.
Several people were speechless. After learning this news, their eyes had clearly changed.
They were the Spider, and they would use any means to seize what they wanted.
No one could stop their steps...
They were also robbers... And they weren't ashamed of it.
Their own strength and the rules within the Troupe were absolute.
They wouldn't refuse anything... But no one could take away even half a thing from their hands.
Because... Once the Spider started to retaliate, it was a gift of death.
After Oboro carried the unconscious Ardamo away for a distance, he ran into the rescue team sent by the Association.
Among them, two were the subsequent examiners for the Hunter Exam.
Oboro described the situation, and turned around and left.
The two examiners expressed their gratitude, and their eyes were full of curiosity as they looked at him.
You had to know that Ardamo was a one-star Hunter from the Association, and he was also a pragmatist...
No one had expected that an examinee would be able to injure him to this extent... More importantly, the person who had saved him was also an examinee.
The Chairman seemed to value him very much in the previous phone call...
When Oboro returned to the oasis, he found that Shalnark was gone, and hadn't returned first.
This was also within his expectations. After all, with something like this happening, Shalnark would definitely not take any more risks.
Phinks's death... The impact on the Spider wasn't big, and it wasn't small either. At least before they had completely grown up, they would have to be more cautious in their actions in the future.
As for revenge... It was certain, which could be easily seen from what this group of people had done to the Kurta Clan.
But Oboro didn't care much.
The Troupe would only target the targets they had the ability to deal with... To put it bluntly, it was Ardamo.
The Association, this kind of behemoth, wasn't something they dared to provoke.
He wasn't very involved... If the Spider wanted to play around, Oboro was happy to accompany them.
That was if he had the time... If he didn't have the time, he would be too lazy to pay attention to this group of people. It wouldn't be easy for the other party to find him.
If they really pestered him, he wouldn't mind making a phone call, and letting the Troupe's disaster arrive early.
The Zoldycks...
He would let Silva and Zeno take action. At that time, the Spider wouldn't just lose a leg...
There was no way around it. He had a thick family background, and could afford the price.
With the current foundation of the Troupe, they couldn't afford to hire the Zoldycks to kill him... Most of the materials they had robbed were used to give back to Meteor City.
Even if they went through Meteor City and the black market to sell the stolen goods, that little bit of money wasn't enough to look at...
Moreover, unless the situation was special, it was very difficult to make them bleed money.
...
On the oasis, Examiner Nangi's expression was very nervous. After receiving a phone call, she was relieved.
Oboro glanced at the two examinees standing next to her. They were the ones who hadn't been affected by Ardamo's roar in the hall before. One of them was also a Nen user.
It was likely that this person had noticed Phinks's departure, realized something, and told Nangi about the situation, which was why she had contacted the Association.
Oboro's return also attracted the attention of several people, but there was no communication.
There were examinees standing on the trunks of the trees all around. They were trying their best to find the Blue-Eyed Poison Scorpion needed to pass the second exam.
It was already afternoon, and no one had completed the task yet. Only a few people had caught one scorpion... The number was very small.
The Blue-Eyed Poison Scorpion not only hid in tree holes and at the roots of trees, but also hid in the sand, and was very aggressive. If you accidentally stepped on its nest, you were very likely to be stung by the scorpion tail that popped out.
When Nangi had taken out the Blue-Eyed Poison Scorpion for display, Oboro had already confirmed the aura of this creature...
He naturally walked to a piece of ground on the edge of the oasis, and stomped hard with one foot.
Through the spread and transmission of power, he made a handful of yellow sand jump up, revealing a fist-sized hole hidden underground. Along with it, several scorpions that were turned upside down and moving their limbs were ejected.
He bent down, grabbed the scorpion tail, and picked up the little things.
He returned the way he had come, walked to Nangi, and handed them over.
As soon as he left, a large group of examinees swarmed over... And began to dig up the exposed cave.
"Pass!" Nangi reached out and took the scorpions, and looked at him with some surprise.
Even if you were a Nen user, you couldn't do everything... Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a detailed division of various fields and specialties.
Nangi was a Hunter who was engaged in plant and biological research. The content of the exam she had planned wasn't difficult for Nen users, but Oboro's speed was too fast. He had only just returned to the venue, and had completed the task with ease.
"No wonder the Chairman mentioned him on the phone..."
The woman thought to herself, "This person... is just here for a stroll."
Then, unlike the other busy examinees, Oboro found a shady place under a tree, and squinted his eyes to rest.
"Ah! It hurts! I've been stung!"
"I'm poisoned! Examiner, save me! Save me!"
"Hey, Examiner... This person is not going to make it. He's been foaming at the mouth, and his skin has turned purple..."
As time passed little by little, the scene could be described as full of situations, and chaotic.
Some people's hands had swollen to the size of a ball.
There were also some who, after being poisoned, ran wildly, wanting to rely on their feet to run back to Bungi City for treatment...
Earlier, the examiner had already reminded them that once they were poisoned, they couldn't get treatment immediately, and told everyone to be careful.
Clearly... The examinees had taken these words as a passing breeze.
An examinee pointed at the person lying on the ground, whose hands and feet were constantly twitching, and had lost consciousness, and shouted at Nangi.
The woman didn't care, and instead, she was holding a book in her hand, and reading quietly... She didn't care about the examinees' lives at all.
Oboro, who was napping, heard the terrified screams coming from all around, and turned over... He was clearly acting as if he was uninvolved.
"You vicious woman! We're here to take the Hunter Exam, not to die... Hurry up and save my friend, otherwise I'll kill you!" Suddenly, a roar made Oboro open one eyelid, and look over.
He saw a man holding a sharp spear against Nangi, and roaring angrily.
Bang!
Unsurprisingly, in just one second, the man knelt down on the ground...
He had been kicked in the abdomen, and his whole body was curled up into a shrimp shape.
"Don't disturb me while I'm reading."
Nangi hooked the hair around her ear, and continued to sit back in her original position.
The sun set, and the temperature in the desert dropped sharply, and finally became cool... But there was still a slight feeling of heat.
So far, only three people had passed the exam.
The number of scorpions was too scarce, and they were also good at hiding and camouflage, making them difficult to find...
Even if you found them, catching them was also difficult. These things were very agile.
It wasn't easy to gather three of them by yourself.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Suddenly, gusts of gentle breeze brushed against his face, blowing over Oboro's whole body, making him feel very comfortable...
He squinted his eyes, and saw a slightly plump figure kneeling next to him, holding a fan woven from branches, and fanning him with a flattering look...
Tonpa!
This guy was only wearing a pair of underwear, and was kneeling there like a good boy, fanning Oboro.
"Something wrong?"
Oboro raised the corners of his mouth in an arc, and asked.
Pa.
The fan dropped, and Tonpa used a very classic etiquette, put his legs together, crossed his hands, and touched the ground, and solemnly and seriously... kowtowed to him.
"Can you please help me... Help me catch the Blue-Eyed Poison Scorpion?"
"I'm sincerely grateful for your great kindness and virtue!"
Tonpa said each word powerfully and forcefully.
"..."
Oboro's eyelids twitched.
The examiner did say that you couldn't ask for help...
He was very good at exploiting loopholes... As expected of the Rookie Crusher.
"Why don't you go find those two? You should be very afraid of me, right?" Oboro pointed at the other two people who had already passed the exam, and said lightly.
"How could I? It's just that before, I thought that you had an extraordinary appearance, and you were also the first to arrive at the venue. Whether it was your strength or your identity, it wasn't something I could compare to. If I approached you rashly, I was afraid that I would offend you. In addition, I was also feeling inferior, and felt ashamed when I was with you. This time, I really felt that I couldn't complete this exam, so I had to put down my face and ask you for help... Compared to the other two, I still think that you have a more compassionate nature, and are happy to help others!" Tonpa's forehead was pressed tightly against the back of his hand, and he said sincerely.
