บท 186: It Can Only Be Him
Then he saw Gon open the window and stick a piece of paper on the outside of the house.
Gon also saw Hisoka's gaze; he smiled and waved his hand, then decisively returned to the house and closed the window tightly.
"It's them."
Hisoka looked at the paper Gon had posted.
There was only a number written on it, [No. 406].
Well, this is Lan's applicant number card, which is quite simple and direct.
Nothing can be more useful than Lan's name among this group of anonymous people.
Hisoka chuckled, retracted his gaze again, and concentrated on dealing with the cards in front of him.
Time passed bit by bit.
Many applicants chose different paths and fought in the Trick Tower.
Just like the three Amori brothers chose a three-way road.
The three brothers relied on the tacit understanding between brothers and overcame many difficulties without much effort.
There was also the bald ninja, Hanzo, who relied on his extraordinary qualities to overcome each level.
And the Rookie Crusher, Tonpa, who was supposed to form a team with Gon and others but accidentally chose the double channel this time.
He and the monkey trainer, Sommy, got together and were sweating profusely because of the level.
In short, one after another, applicants began to overcome the difficulties in the Trick Tower and moved down.
Just like this, a few hours passed.
"Applicant No. 301, Gittarackur, the seventh applicant to pass the third round, took 12 hours and 3 minutes."
The third stone door opened, and Illumi walked in with his head making a clicking sound.
The seventh?
He looked around and saw Hisoka stacking pyramids there.
Then, he quickly noticed the house.
Well, it's hard not to notice it because of its large size and conspicuous color.
'No. 406? Is that Lan's residence?'
'It seems that the five people, including him, should be in that house…"
Illumi looked at the number on the white paper and moved towards Hisoka.
At the same time, another stone door next to it also rumbled up.
"Hey!"
A ninja with a shiny forehead ran in: "I must be the first one to arrive!!"
He cheered confidently, but the next moment.
"Applicant No. 294, Hanzo, the eighth applicant to pass the third round, took 12 hours and 5 minutes."
Hanzo's joyful expression froze on his face instantly: "Eighth... The eighth?!!"
He immediately looked around.
Well, Hisoka and the applicant named Gittarackur looked difficult to deal with.
Hanzo's eyes paused for a second and then moved away immediately.
In addition to the two of them, there were five other people…
The next second, Hanzo saw the white roundhouse.
"House, house?!"
He looked at the house in astonishment: "There is a house at the bottom of this tower?!!"
"Is it provided for us to live by the...uh."
Before he finished his daydream, he saw the paper on the window with [No. 406] written on it.
"It seems that applicant owns it..."
He also thought of Lan and his extraordinary performance in the first two rounds of the Hunter Exam.
He decided not to provoke him, so he went around to the side and continued training on the spot.
Forget it; the eighth place is also quite good.
He could only comfort himself in his heart.
"Except for the applicant No. 406, the others who passed should be the companions next to him, who followed him"
Thinking of this, Hanzo immediately ate a lemon:
"It's really lucky to be helped by others."
He said sourly.
Then he started training on the spot, and he even chanted.
It was less than half an hour.
"Applicant No. 384, Geretta, the ninth applicant to pass the third round, took 12 hours and 27 minutes."
The ninth?!!
Geretta, a black man carrying a blowgun, heard this number and raised his eyebrows.
It took them less than twelve hours to clear the Trick Tower, which takes seventy-two hours to clear.
This definitely shows an excellent ability.
Geretta wanted to see who could be faster than him!
Then...
He had the same reaction as Hanzo. "Forget it, let's just leave it at that."
Geretta took his eyes off the white house and accepted the result and sat on the ground against the wall.
Time continued to pass bit by bit.
Soon, a day passed.
Considering that the applicants who passed the level need rest to replenish their physical strength.
The Hunter Association was very considerate and provided food.
Although the dining cart pushed out ordinary single-person food—a simple pack of compressed biscuits and a cup of hot porridge per person—the applicants who passed the level came forward one after another and took their own share.
When Geretta came back with his share of food, two more stone doors rumbled open almost at the same time. "Great, we finally reached the end!"
Pokkle, carrying a bow and arrow, came out and breathed a sigh of relief.
The experience during this period was really full of dangers, but finally, he successfully arrived here.
But just as he finished speaking, a man dressed in indian clothes and holding a spear came out from the stone door next to him.
"Applicant No. 53, Pokkle, and applicant No. 371, Goz, arrived at the same time and were determined to be the tenth applicants who passed the third round, taking 30 hours and 11 minutes."
"The tenth? Not bad."
Pokkle didn't have any obsession with time.
Seeing the food provided on the iron rack beside him, he immediately walked over there.
"Only the tenth?!"
Goz, on the contrary, looked carefully at the applicants who had arrived.
Hisoka, who was savoring the biscuits, Hanzo and Geretta, who were chewing with big mouthfuls, and Gittarackur, who was chewing like cat eating bubble gum.
"In my opinion, they should all be good players. I really hope to fight with them..."
Suddenly, his gaze paused.
There are only four people.
There should be five other applicants…
"Eh? What is that?!"
Pokkle, who was collecting food, finally found something wrong.
"What's wrong with that house?!"
Goz also looked over immediately; the white round house with a chimney was particularly conspicuous.
"406…"
He stared at the number seriously. If he remembered correctly, this number represented the man named Lan.
Last year, he beat up the examiner.
He was very powerful and could be said to be the strongest among the many applicants who came here to take the Hunter Exam!
"If I have to choose someone to fight…"
Goz clenched the spear in his hand tightly: "Then it can only be him!!"
He came to participate in such a Hunter Exam in order to be able to constantly challenge the strong!
There is no doubt that Lan is definitely the most worthy target for him to challenge his eyes!!
Just when Goz made up his mind and went forward to get food to replenish his physical strength…

บท 187: No Harm Without Comparison
Suddenly…
A strong, meaty aroma came, filling the 360-degree circular space.
Almost at the same time, everyone's nose twitched.
"It's coming from that house…"
No need to think too much; everyone knows where the smell is coming from.
Not to mention the white chimney, which has begun to emit smoke.
"They must be making delicious meat dishes in there!!"
Hanzo bit the relatively coarse whole wheat compressed biscuits in his mouth with a crunchy sound.
He was so jealous that he couldn't help but grit his teeth there.
They were eating simple food outside, while the people inside could eat a delicious meal.
Hanzo, who was so jealous, didn't dare to imagine how happy the people inside were!
"Really, it's so comfortable!!"
In the hall of the room, Leorio picked up a piece of meat from the grill in front of him and stuffed it into his mouth.
Then he took a big gulp of beer.
"This is life!!"
"Indeed, it's hard to imagine that in this Hunter Exam with danger everywhere, we can eat barbecue leisurely here."
Kurapika held the tray in his hand and placed the pieces of meat evenly on every place on the grill.
"All this is really thanks to Lan!!"
Gon also put in some vegetables such as mushrooms and tofu rolls.
He is a child who is not picky about food.
"I haven't eaten like this for a long time." Killua was mixing the dipping sauce and sauce next to him.
Honey, cheese, sweet and spicy sauce, white sugar... Put whatever is sweet in it. "Don't worry; I have plenty of food in this house, so you can eat as much as you want."
Lan said, and he didn't forget to pick up a few pieces of roasted beef shanks and pork belly.
He wraps it with lettuce leaves, adds a few cloves of garlic slices, and puts it in his mouth.
"Lan, Leorio, do you have to add garlic slices to the meat?"
"If you eat meat without garlic, the fragrance will be half less!"
"Is that so? Let me try it too..."
"I still think sweeter meat is more fragrant!"
"Hey, Killua! Your honey splashed into my dish!!"
"You still dare to say that, Leorio? Your wine is too full, and the foam is coming out!!"
The five people were noisy, putting meat and vegetables, pouring beer, and drinking drinks.
It was so comfortable and cheerful, and the scene and atmosphere were extremely lively.
Especially knowing that they would face the round with an uncertain life and death next.
Such a rare and brief enjoyment is a luxury for them!
Leorio and Kurapika also enjoyed this moment.
Especially Kurapika, after all his tribe were killed.
It has been a long time since he relaxed and rested like this, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Compared with the people outside, I saw that what they eat seems to be compressed biscuits."
"Indeed, it is not as good as what we eat."
"Hahahaha, and they sleep on the hard floor. How can we eat so well and sleep well?!"
"While the four of us recuperate, and they may not have rested well. We will have the advantage in the next round."
Leorio and the others are very satisfied with the current situation.
It is no problem to stay in this room for the remaining dozens of hours!!
In this way, several people in the house ate barbecue, chatted, and watched TV.
They had a very happy time.
On the contrary, the group of applicants outside could only eat compressed biscuits silently, which seemed a bit desolate.
Time was passing by every minute.
Other applicants passed the test one after another.
For example, Bodoro, Ponzu, the three Amori brothers, Shishito, Bourbon, Sommy, and Tonpa.
They are all familiar faces.
Those who can come here and pass the third round are outstanding among ordinary people.
Especially for Sommy and Tonpa, it is really not easy to arrive here together.
However, everyone who came here saw the extremely eye-catching white house.
Especially the applicants who came here at lunchtime.
Smelling the fragrant smell, looking at the smoke coming out of the chimney, and then looking at the compressed biscuits and white porridge in their hands…
Such a contrast and gap really makes people feel a little jealous.
"It's really too much..."
Hanzo's mouth was full of compressed biscuits while chewing as if he was really eating meat.
"Last time, they had a barbecue, and we had soup; this time, it's hot pot?!"
He snapped and bit the compressed biscuits into pieces:
"Are they here to participate in the Hunter Exam, or are they here to play house and travel?!!"
Hanzo, who couldn't eat these delicacies, could only be jealous and angry.
Facing applicant No. 406, he naturally wouldn't ask for it to avoid danger.
He could only be miserable, eating biscuits while smelling the fragrant aroma…
Others also huddled there silently while thinking that the end of this round would come soon.
Three days passed quickly in the blink of an eye.
Although it seemed a bit torturous to the applicants.
Squeak.
When the countdown ended, the door on the ground of the Trick Tower slowly opened.
It was at this time…
"Let's go, time is up."
Inside the white house, Lan changed his clothes and walked to the door.
"Oh!!
Leorio was the first to respond, full of energy and in great condition!
The rest during this period of time has made him look rosy.
Not only him, but also Kurapika, Gon, and Killua are full of energy.
"Then it's the fourth round of the Hunter Exam."
A group of people walked out one after another with expectations and confidence for the next round.
Then, they saw a group of applicants staring at them.
"What happened to them?"
Gon looked at the applicants, who had bitter and vengeful eyes and scratched his cheeks in confusion.
"Nothing."
Kurapika and Killua could naturally imagine how jealous they were of them for eating, drinking, and resting well in the house.
Quickly pulling Gon, who looked puzzled, they quickly walked outside.
Bang!
Lan pressed the button, and the house turned into a DynoCaps again and returned to his hand.
After putting it away, he ignored the stares of other applicants and strode out of the Trick Tower.
Others naturally did not dare to say anything to Lan.
They could only remain silent and go outside together.
At this time, someone had already been waiting outside.
"Dear applicants, congratulations on your successful escape from the Trick Tower."
Lippo, with his hands behind his back, cockscomb hair, fox eyes, and wearing a gray coat, introduced himself: "I am Lippo, a Blacklist Hunter and director of the prison."
"Now, I would like to invite everyone.."
With a snap of his finger, an airship rose from the cliff behind him.
"To get on this airship immediately!"
So, they are not even giving them extra time, and are they going to fly directly to the next location?
The applicants did not think twice and boarded the Hunter Association's dedicated airship one after another.
After sailing for almost two hours, they arrived at their next destination. It seemed to be an island with a tropical rainforest climate.
And around this island, there were many shipwrecks that seemed to have been left for years.
