He said very sincerely.
Oboro could hear it though... He was saying that, just from the surface, he was easier to approach than the other two, and the possibility of him agreeing was greater.
His flattery skills were really something.
"People don't die from it... Don't worry. Although it's highly poisonous, the examiner didn't say that it would be fatal... Look... There are several under that tree. Be careful... Although you won't die, you'll lose consciousness if you're stung, and you won't wake up for at least a day, which is basically the same as failing the task..." Oboro reached out and pointed out a location for him.
"Thank you!"
Tonpa raised his honest face, and said happily.
"Don't be anxious. Go at night when it's dark. The scorpions will be more active at night... During the day, they're mostly hidden because of the high temperature, and they're also more alert and aggressive... It's easier to catch them at night." Seeing that he was getting up to leave, Oboro said lightly again.
"Yes."
Hearing this, Tonpa obediently sat down, picked up the fan, and continued to fan Oboro...
With Oboro's help, Tonpa easily passed the second exam.
According to Nangi's original plan, the task time was one day...
Now it had been changed to two days, and only thirty people had completed it. If it was one day, the number would probably be sharply reduced.
Because there were too few people, the subsequent exams might not be necessary...
The third exam was to randomly divide the thirty examinees into three camps, and go through the same route, from the starting point to the end point.
Along the way, they also had to go through some checkpoints with traps... And they could attack other camps.
It was a very typical team battle.
The final number of people was only fifteen.
Everyone naturally wanted to be assigned to Oboro's team. Now, anyone with eyes could see that he was the strongest person in this session of the exam...
However, the team assignments were determined by drawing lots. However, this couldn't stump Oboro... He used some small tricks, and easily made Tonpa and himself form a team.
He smoothly helped him advance to the fourth stage.
But Oboro couldn't help with the content of the fourth exam.
The Association released some imprisoned criminals, and placed them in a fixed area. They needed to catch them within a certain period of time. As long as the criminals survived for 12 hours, they could be released without charge, and immediately pardoned.
During this time, the criminals could use any means to disguise, hide, or evade, and they could even attack the examinees. If the examinees were killed... It would also count as a victory.
After hearing the rules, Tonpa directly admitted defeat very simply...
After being eliminated, he also specially expressed his gratitude to Oboro.
He tentatively asked for Oboro's contact information... Unfortunately, he was rejected.
The difficulty of this exam was quite high. The criminals chosen by the Association were also very tricky. In the end, only three people, including Oboro, successfully passed, and stood out.
Oboro could also see that... The Association realized that the level of the examinees in this session was extremely poor, and there was no need to continue. They directly reduced the trial process. Otherwise, there should have been arranged tasks and personnel behind.
In this way, after going through a few days of effort, this session of the Hunter Exam ended hastily.
Oboro and the other two boarded a spaceship... And went to the Hunter Association's headquarters.
The old man Netero didn't appear again.
This kind of thing as the Hunter Exam wasn't something that could bother the old man.
He had appeared before for him alone... The reason why he had appeared in Gon's session later was because Menchi was too picky and harsh, and was preparing to eliminate all the examinees, so he had to come forward.
Actually... The session that Oboro participated in wasn't that bad either. After all, there was him and another Nen user.
If Shalnark and Phinks were still there, the intensity would even be higher than the 287th session.
Although there was the main character group, there were only Hisoka and Illumi who had awakened Nen in that session.
There was no way around it... The Association had clearly modified the plan and process.
What they saw were all single head examiners.
In the big years of the Hunter Exam in the past, the head examiner would have deputies and several other examiners, or at least some testers...
...
"Ho ho ho... He's finally here."
The next day, at the Hunter Association's headquarters.
Netero stood by the window of his office, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and said with a light smile.
He had just received the news that Oboro had entered the Association, and was being explained to by a senior, and was familiarizing himself with and understanding the rules of the Association.
Standing behind the old man was his little secretary, Bean.
He was wearing a suit, and his appearance was different from humans. You couldn't see his nose and ears, and his skin was green...
His face was like a round bean, and he was short and chubby, which was inexplicably a little cute and funny.
"Chairman, why are you so concerned about that Oboro?"
Bean raised his head, and asked curiously.
"Of course it's because he's interesting..."
Netero turned his head, and stroked his beard, "It's always seeing some familiar faces waving around in front of my eyes. After a long time, I'll naturally get annoyed... It's only lively when there are new people..."
"As expected..."
Bean slapped his forehead speechlessly, "There are too many people you're interested in..."
...
In a conference room at the Association's headquarters, Biscuit made a coughing sound with a serious face, put her hands on her hips, and revealed a hint of displeasure when she glanced at Oboro.
She had specially rushed back this time!
The huge room was empty, and there weren't many people.
The three people led by Oboro had already received their Hunter licenses.
Compared to the other two people's serious faces, and their appearance of listening carefully, Oboro was lying on the table at this time, with his head tilted...
Although he had sunglasses on, Biscuit knew... His eyes weren't open! He was slacking off... Sleeping!
Some of the related matters after getting the Hunter license, they had already understood on the way here.
What they were going to learn next were some of the internal regulations of the Association.
"What I'm going to talk about is very important to you. It includes some of the rules that must be followed by the Association, and the direction of the fields you'll be engaged in in the future... Of course, the Association won't interfere with your personal freedom and behavior..."
On the stage, Biscuit deliberately increased the volume of her voice.
She was giving someone a warning.
Oboro was as dead as a doornail, and didn't move at all.
"..."
An anger flashed in Biscuit's jewel-like eyes.
"First of all, congratulations to you three for passing the Hunter Exam..."
"Th-Thank... You..."
The two newcomers looked at each other, and sensed the cold air emanating from the beautiful girl on the stage... And even killing intent. They stuttered as they responded.
They were at a loss, and didn't know where they had offended the 'senior'...
But soon... They found that the beautiful girl's eyes that chose people to devour had been staring at Oboro all along!
The three of them had had a brief exchange on the spaceship, and could be considered to know each other.
"Hey... Oboro, wake up, don't sleep."
One of them shifted his butt, got closer to Oboro, and secretly touched him with his toes, and carefully reminded him.
Who would have thought that Oboro would only change his posture.
"Hehehehe..."
On the stage, Biscuit pinched the corner of her cute puffy skirt with both hands, stood on tiptoe, and showed a very bright smile, and said to the two juniors: "I'm sorry, can I ask you to go out for a while first? I'll call you later..."
"Okay."
The two looked at each other, and left the room with a lot of tact.
As soon as they left, in the next second, Biscuit instantly surge from the stage to in front of Oboro.
One foot slammed on the table with a bang, and she grabbed Oboro's collar with both hands, and began to shake him wildly.
Her expression was gloomy, her eyes were red, and she said coldly: "You little brat... You better be serious for me! Do you want to die?!"
Oboro was shaken until he was dizzy, and even his sunglasses flew off.
Looking at Biscuit who was throwing a tantrum, he said with an easy face: "Alright, calm down... I'm listening carefully! By the way... Have you reached menopause?"
"..."
Biscuit's face completely darkened.
"I'll kill you..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I misspoke... Oh dear, I haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to have become a lot more beautiful..."
Realizing that things were bad, Oboro immediately changed his tune.
However, he seemed to be 'playing around' with Biscuit.
The corner of his eye, however, swept past the corner of the conference room, which was the area where the seats were, below the stage.
In the room, it wasn't just Biscuit and the three of them.
There was also someone sitting...
A blond youth wearing an orange striped suit, with a hearty smile on his face all the time, giving people a handsome feeling that was as comfortable as a spring breeze and naturally approachable.
As soon as Oboro had stepped into this conference room, he had noticed the other party...
Pariston!
He didn't know what purpose the other party had... He just instinctively became wary in his heart.
He also faked his personality, and didn't greet or become familiar with Biscuit... He was intentionally creating a 'first impression' for Pariston.
Whether it was in his previous life, or when they met in this life... Oboro didn't like him.
Being targeted by this person... wasn't a good thing.
Oboro's gaze was clearly hidden enough... But Pariston seemed to have sensed that he was observing him.
He rested his chin on one hand, and waved at him enthusiastically, greeting him...
