Chapter 129: No. 406
Mr. Fox's words made the three of them even more curious.
"But no matter what…"
Under the moonlight, Gon's eyes sparkled.
"We will soon arrive at the formal venue!!"
Soon, he will get more blind boxes!!
Lan, who was taken by the Fox Father, had similar ideas!
In this way, a group of four people were taken and flown to the location of Zaban City.
They don't know how long it took, but as the first ray of morning light on the horizon sprinkled on the earth, a huge and magnificent city also appeared in front of everyone.
"Let me see, the location on the Zaban City is 2-5-10…"
The Fox Father, who turned into a human form, led a group of people to find the location of the Hunter Exam.
"Ah, found it."
He stopped at a certain position: "This building is the venue."
Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika all looked up.
A luxurious building that could be called the ancient Roman Coliseum appeared in front of them.
"So tall, so impressive!!"
"The building is so luxurious; no wonder it can be the venue for the Hunter Exam; it's amazing!!
"Is this the gathering place for masters from all over the world who want to become hunters..."
The three people were very emotional there; their eyes flickered, and their emotions were ignited.
However…
"What are you looking at?"
Lan passed by them, patted their shoulders one by one, and touched Gon's head.
"The Hunter Exam will not appear in such a conspicuous place."
"Huh?!"
The three people turned their heads in astonishment and saw that the Fox Father had walked to the door of a steak restaurant.
"Ah, yes, the entrance is here."
The Fox Father pointed at the door.
The shabby decoration almost ruins the three people's mood.
"Welcome."
When the few people walked into the steak house, the waiter and the chef both greeted them politely.
"Don't joke, tour guide."
Leorio still couldn't accept it. "How could it be possible here..."
"Boss, the steak combo for four."
"How would you like them?"
"Grill over low flame until cooked."
"Got it... Let yourself into the backroom."
After the strange code, the group came to an empty private room under the reception of the maid.
Gon and Leorio stabilized their moods and looked at everything around them while the Lan was complaining to the Fox Father: "Who decided this year's code? It's not rigorous at all."
"If a customer happens to order such a set meal, will he be sent here as well?"
However, when he learned that it was a volleyball player who casually said the code while eating steak and ordering food, Lan understood everything.
Given Mr. Netero's character, it was good that he didn't say anything useless.
Besides, the place he chose was not bad.
Lan looked at the blue blind box that appeared in the box, and his mood suddenly became better.
Even this steakhouse that's related to Hunter Exam can produce a blind box.
[Get an Uncommon blind box, do you want to open it?]
"Open!"
[Open successfully, and get: The Cooking skills of a top chef. (Source World: Chūka Ichiban!)]
Wow, this is in a steak restaurant, so cooking skills are given?
Well, it's better than nothing.
What's more, it's the skills of the top chefs in Chūka Ichiban… Not to mention, it's also a good ability.
And it just happened that the second round of exams required cooking skills, and it was just right.
"This is the Hunter Exam, and anything unexpected may happen next."
In the private room, the Fox Father introduced the basic situation and then looked at Lan:
"Just like the one next to you, he basically passed the hunter exam last year, and this year, he came again."
"Only one out of ten thousand applicants make it this far. From this point of view, you are already amazing as a newcomer."'
"If it is you, I will be happy to continue leading the way for you next year, just like I agreed with Lan last year."
As he said that, the Fox Father took out four number plates and handed them to the four of them.
Well, it's still the familiar three numbers.
Lan looked at tag no. 406 in his hand and put it away with a smile.
"Try hard, newcomers." The Fox Father waved his hand: "I don't know if any other examiner has said this to you before…"
Finally, he looked at Lan and said with a smile: "Sometimes, experienced people can still provide unexpected help."
After that, he wanted to leave.
"Mr. Fox."
Then, he was stopped by Gon, who offered him a hand.
"Thank you!"
The Fox Father looked at him and smiled even more happily: "Ah, you're welcome."
Snap.
He held Gon's hand together: "See you again if we are lucky!"
The private room of the steak restaurant slowly sank like an elevator descending downwards.
"Although his reminder was well-intentioned, isn't it very rude to say that? It seems that we will definitely fail this year."
Leorio muttered as he watched the surrounding walls rise and fall.
"Only one pass in the past three years."
Kurapika said lightly: "This is the passing rate of newcomers."
"Most of the newcomers can't stand the harsh test and give up halfway."
"And some people are injured and can't take the exam anymore."
"Is that so?"
Gon blinked twice and then looked at Lan: "So, Lan, how was your Hunter Exam last year?"
"Me? I didn't encounter the situations that Kurapika said…"
Lan thought about it and said it truthfully.
Well, he did not suffer any injuries in this regard, nor did he suffer any targeting or danger from the Hunter Exam.
But it seems that he brought all these to others…
"Huh?"
Gon was curious: "So, Lan, why were you disqualified… During the Hunter Exam?"
Kurapika and Leorio immediately looked over.
Previously, in the wooden house under the Lone Pine Tree, the fox family did not explain it clearly.
Their curiosity was ignited at that time.
They also wanted to know what Lan, an old applicant who had participated in a Hunter Exam, had experienced.
"Nothing bad."
Lan didn't think there was anything wrong: "It was mainly because I violated a rule during the Hunter Exam last year."
"Broken the rule?"
"Ah, it's not a serious matter…"
