The Man Standing at the Top of the Food Chain

Hunter is the most profitable and honorable profession in the world of "Hunter x Hunter". No matter who you are before, once you become a hunter and get a hunter license, your life will change drastically.For example, countries that ordinary people cannot enter, as well as 75% of restricted areas around the world, can be freely entered and exited with a hunter license, and then 95% of public facilities can be used for free, as well as various other superior treatment.

If you sell your hunter license, you can get property that you can enjoy for at least seven lifetimes, and even if you don't do anything, as long as you hold it, you can spend your whole life having fun.

As for how to use it, it is up to the hunter himself, and the Hunter Association will not interfere in the slightest.

Of course, because hunters have such absolute autonomy, once the hunter license is lost or stolen, the Hunter Association will not reissue it. How to protect one's own hunter license is also a test for new hunters.

However, this kind of test has no effect on Tang Cheng's three challengers, because except when the hunter's license is needed, no one can take it away as long as it is stuffed into the backpack at other times.

Then, it is worth mentioning that such a small hunter's license can occupy a space in the backpack. At the same time, Tang Cheng also experimented with Tang Ya's hunter's license, and stored his hunter's license in the backpack. When the license was issued, Tang Ya's hunter license could no longer be inserted.

Regarding this situation, even though Lin Chen, who has more experience than them, has never experienced it, the three of them are all analytical people, so it is not difficult to understand... After all, the hunter license is the most effective passport in this world, so yes They are important plot props for the challengers, and they also have uniqueness. No one can use other people's hunter licenses, and the rich man who bought the hunter license is not for use, but for collection, probably for this reason , Only one hunter license can be placed in the backpack.

On the other hand, a hunter license holder can accept various commissions from all over the world.Whether it's a killer or a bodyguard, or looking for some treasure, the hunter's license is the best stepping stone, so... can their challengers also use this to trigger side missions?Although it is impossible to be sure, its importance is self-evident when you think about it this way.

The hunter license was issued the day after the hunter exam.At the same time, after telling some hunters what they need to pay attention to, in the afternoon, the ten new hunters of this class left one after another, heading for a further road.

Hisoka, the pervert, left early, and no one knew what he was going to do next, while Illumi completely let go of his disguise.He took the hunter license to carry out the next assassination mission, but before leaving, he still told Tang Duan that he should learn to read as soon as possible, and what he said will be reported after the mission is completed.

Then there are Xiaojie, Kurapika and Leorio. Just like in the original book, they are going to beat the enemy family to find Kiya.Hanzo wants to return to his hometown to improve his martial arts.Then there is Peng Si, the bee girl who squeezed Bao Kuer out of the original book because she hugged Tang Cheng's thigh. Her goal is also the Eudemons Hunter. When she left, she thanked Tang Cheng well.

In the end, Tang Cheng, Lin Chen, and Tang Ya also got their way. After all, although the hunter exam is over, there will be another test after this... the study of reading ability.

Except for Hisoka and Illumi who already had the ability to read, for the other eight candidates.The Hunter Association will arrange a mentor for each of them to teach them the ability to read.Of course, it is unknown who this mentor is, where he is, and when he will appear in front of them. Even, except for Tang Cheng and the other three challengers who know the plot, the other five new hunters don't know at all. There is such a test.

And because the reading and teaching of each new hunter is individual.So the three of them couldn't go together.

Of course, apart from the fact that Tang Ya had no confidence in her own strength and was a little uneasy, both Tang Cheng and Lin Chen preferred to go out and play alone.So Tang Ya could only give up the idea of ​​traveling together, and while looking forward to being able to stand alone the next time they meet, she moved towards a certain city.

And Tang Cheng's goal is the sky arena.

The Sky Arena is located in the Republic of Batokia. It is the fourth tallest building in the world, with a total of 251 floors and a height of 991 meters. It is also the highest-level fighting arena in the world, gathering countless fighters from all over the world. Whether it is for making money or for exercising one's own strength, it is the most suitable place.

In the original book, Xiaojie and Qiya came to the Sky Arena to practice shortly after the hunter exam, and they also learned the ability to read here.

Three days later, Tang Cheng came to the city where the Sky Arena was located, but he did not participate immediately, but looked for hunter-related places nearby.With his current strength, it is enough to easily enter the [-]th floor. The low-level competition is meaningless to him, but the place above the [-]th floor is where people who read the ability gather. It didn't work either.

Therefore, compared to this, it is better to find your own mind ability tutor first.

As for this aspect, each freshman hunter has a different Mental Ability Mentor, some will appear in front of you actively, some you need to find by yourself, and some will pretend to be chance encounters to teach Mental Ability through other relationships... ... Tang Cheng's mentor needs to be found by himself, which is also a test for new hunters.

Of course, such a test is not difficult for Tang Cheng. After all, he has a hunter license and he can do many things unimpeded, and he can also check some hunter-related information, and then combine his own information. It takes less than two days. In time, he found the location of his mentor.

The location was a church on the outskirts of the city, and the person was the priest in the church. For some reason, the hunter pretended to be a priest and stayed in the church to handle some of the hunter's commissions and matters.

On the evening after finding out the location, Tang Chengcheng set off for the church.

To be honest, this church is not only located in a remote place, but also very old. From the surface, it doesn't look like it is inhabited at all. If it hadn't been found out in advance, even Tang Chengcheng would not have come to such a place to find people.

"The inconspicuous position, the inconspicuous hunter, I always feel a little disappointed..."

Tang Cheng murmured and complained as he walked, and then, when he pushed open the somewhat dilapidated door of the church, a bloody smell gushed out from inside, making him frown instinctively.

Pushing open the door completely, looking up, I saw a man dressed as a priest lying on the ground under the statue in the center of the church, his eyes wide open, and he was dying.

Tang Cheng didn't sense the breath of other people nearby, and if someone was hiding nearby but he couldn't even sense it, it meant that the other party was not something he could deal with, so he didn't deliberately guard against anything, and walked up with a frown .

"The cause of death was that the neck was cut off by a sharp weapon. The wound has congealed and the body has become rigid. It seems that he died for at least a day... Ah, what a trouble, as expected, all kinds of accidents will happen." After checking the condition of the corpse, Tang Cheng couldn't help but sigh With a sigh, his mentor was actually killed. He had never thought of this kind of plot unfolding.

So, who was the one who killed him?

Tang Cheng thought so, and then found a familiar thing under the corpse.

……

Half an hour later, Tang Cheng returned to his hotel and dialed a number.

"Oh, it's amazing to be able to find my phone number." A magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone, Hisoka!

"The polite words will be avoided. What I want to say is, how do you take responsibility for this matter?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand."

"Of course you killed my mentor." Tang Cheng played with a blood-stained poker card and said with a half-smile, "Leaving such an important prop at the murder scene, even a fool would know that you did it." of."

"Oh, did I accidentally drop something? Then there's nothing I can do..." A joking voice came from the opposite side, "Although I'm a little sorry for you, it's not my fault. It was that guy who provoked you first. Mine, and then I accidentally killed him when I got agitated."

"One of your carelessness directly made me lose the opportunity to learn the ability, bastard!" Tang Cheng cursed, and threw the playing card out of the window casually, "Although I am a newcomer, I also know that the Hunter Association wants to mobilize Being a mentor is not an easy task. After all, there are only more than [-] hunters in the world. Not everyone has the time to be a mentor for newcomers. Now that you have killed my mentor, do you want to teach me reading ability yourself? ?"

"Ah, this won't work." Hisoka immediately refused, "Although I am willing to wait for the young fruit to grow and pick it when it is fully ripe, I can't cultivate it myself, because... I can see the fruit growing up with my own eyes. When I grow up, that wonderful taste will make me excited "gao chao", and I may not be able to bear it anymore... Ahhh~~ That would be bad, if I accidentally destroy the fruit before it ripens, I will will..."

"Okay!" Tang Cheng's scalp felt numb for a while, and he immediately interrupted his "shen yin", and said, "So, how to solve this matter? Even if the Hunter Association can send a new mentor, it is estimated that at least It will also take a month, and I don't have that much time to wait."

"Hmm..." There was silence on the other side of the phone, until half a minute later, he suddenly seemed to think of something, "By the way, a person just came over from my side today, and he hasn't left yet, and this person recently It's also relatively empty, although I have a bad temper, but it should be no problem to teach you the ability to read... Don't worry, I will pay the money, and then I will contact you later."

After speaking, the phone was hung up.

"Pay?" Tang Cheng held the beeping phone, somewhat in a daze.
