You've Got to Be Kidding! Video Game Stat Bonuses!?
Even riding Flying Magical Beasts.
It took three full days to travel from Kukuroo Mountain to Ejin City, located in the northern part of Meteor City.
Silva, dressed in Martial Arts attire, walked calmly down the streets of Ejin City.
His imposing physique and sharp eyes made him stand out from the crowd.
Born into a notorious Assassin Family in the Dark World, Silva could not possibly be unaware of Meteor City's existence.
Furthermore, the Zoldyck Family clan has some deep collaborations with Meteor City.
His wife Kikyo, also comes from Meteor City.
The Zoldyck Family clan has its own dedicated intelligence network.
On the way.
Silva has obtained information about the Sharku Clan.
Based on intelligence alone, this family doesn't seem to have anything special about them.
Based in Ejin City, and through cooperation with the government, they have monopolized some industries and can be considered one of the upper echelons in Ejin City.
Silva subconsciously compared him to the targets he had previously assassinated.
The conclusion is that, if necessary... annihilating such a medium-sized family would only take him ten minutes.
"After resolving their crisis, should we consider whether to engage in further in-depth contact with them...?"
"Strange, why would Dad give such instructions..."
Silva, lost in thought, had unknowingly arrived at the front of an ancient castle.
He slowly raised his eyes, took a closer look, and said calmly.
"We've arrived. I wonder if any members of this family are still alive..."
"Whoosh!"
His figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.
Located at the entrance of the castle.
One of the two security personnel thought his eyes were playing tricks on him and rubbed them.
Did you see anything just pass by!?
"Shh! What nonsense are you spouting in Big White? The young master and master have finally stopped being so suspicious these past few days, so don't let them hear you. Just focus on your work!"
And at this very moment.
Inside a room located in the castle.
Xia's expression wasn't pleasant, even though she was wearing a well-fitting suit and her hair was neatly styled.
But dark circles and bloodshot eyes don't lie.
He racked his brains for three days and three nights, but still couldn't figure out how the Kalie Gang had been suddenly wiped out!
Who did this?!
Walker?
But where did he and Mina go? Why haven't they come back yet?
Three days ago.
When his men brought back news of the destruction of the Kalie Gang, he and his father were still hoping that the Seals would work.
The Kalie Gang has been destroyed!
He initially thought he had misjudged the situation and had even caused his family to waste this important Seals.
Although her father didn't say anything, Xia felt somewhat guilty.
But after that...
With no word from Walker and Mina coming, Xia sensed something was wrong.
If Walker did it, why isn't he showing up?
Even if he falls for Mina, it's not like he, as her older brother, can't... well, this is something I need to seriously consider...
Walker... he's a bit of a jerk.
But... if it wasn't Walker who did it?
Who was responsible for the downfall of the Kalie Gang!?
This was something Xia couldn't figure out no matter how hard she racked her brains; perhaps the family's crisis was not yet over.
As for that Seals...
This also filled Xia with doubt.
Since the day it reacted, the Seals has been emitting a soft glow.
But... that's all there is to it.
Nothing else happened!
He couldn't help but doubt his great-grandfather's claim that "the family can contact each other when facing a crisis"...
Who should I contact...?
The various confusions lingered in his mind, preventing Xia from getting a good night's sleep.
Inside the castle, in another room.
Jorar stared blankly at the cabinet filled with violins.
He was naturally aware of the family's situation; the crisis was clearly not over yet!
Although the Kalie Gang was destroyed, Xia's friends failed to bring Mina back, and... most importantly, the Seals left by her grandfather did not work.
They've clearly demonstrated extraordinary qualities, so why can't they get in touch with the other person?
Were they... abandoned?
Thinking of this, his eyes involuntarily turned to the depths of the cabinet, where a yellowed, old sheet of music sat at the very back, among the other sheet music.
No one would notice it unless they looked closely.
This is also a secret left by my grandfather...
It was a taboo subject; he had never played it before. However, according to the records left by his grandfather, he knew that if he played the piece, something very unfortunate would happen.
"Sigh... Nen user..."
Jorar sighed, turned his gaze away, slowly stood up, and looked out the window.
It's not the worst time yet.
Let's leave this thing here for now...
Just then!
"Jorar Sharku..."
A deep, calm voice came from behind him. Jorar froze, his pupils contracted, and he slowly turned around.
I don't know when it happened.
From the dark corner behind him, a burly and imposing figure slowly emerged and walked towards him step by step.
Who are you!?
Jorar's expression was somewhat grim, with one hand slightly behind his back.
Clearly, this refined middle-aged man was not as incompetent as he appeared.
The burly figure paused, his voice calm.
"Put down your gun, it's useless against me, and... I'm not your enemy..."
Upon hearing the other person's words, Jorar was taken aback.
The man opposite him continued.
"You can call me Silva, Silva Zoldyck Family. I'm here for only one purpose: to resolve the problems your family is facing."
The moment I heard the word "Zoldyck Family".
Jorar's expression froze, his pupils suddenly contracting to pinpoints, in disbelief!
"The Zoldyck Family!?"
Jorar, after all, had led the Xierku Family for many years, walking a fine line between the legitimate and criminal worlds.
He naturally knew some things about the Dark World.
Without a doubt, he had heard of the notorious assassin clan in the dark world.
"Yes, that's right. I don't think I need to prove my identity."
Jorar shook his head. He dared not make such a request. Besides, the fact that the other party could enter his room so silently meant that... it would be easy for them to take his life.
"I don't understand what you just said, or why you suddenly appeared to help us..."
Jorar had intended to ask the other person a question, but he stopped abruptly at that point!
He paused for a moment, then immediately understood the reason and exclaimed with delight.
"You... you are what the Seals left by our great-grandfather said..."
Silva nodded, his sharply defined face expressionless, and said calmly.
"It seems you've already guessed it; your family once had close ties with the Zoldyck Family clan, which is why I'm here."
"If you encounter any trouble, let me know. If there are enemies, I will deal with them as soon as possible."
At this moment, Jorar's emotions went through a rollercoaster, and he didn't even know what to say. He just felt his tense heart suddenly relax.
With the help of the Zoldyck Family, my great-grandfather actually had their friendship!
He believed that the problems his family was facing were nothing at all!
"Please... please wait a moment. I'll bring my child to see you. Perhaps it will be easier for him to communicate with you and clarify the current situation."
Jorar had intended to address the current issue, but then, after a moment's thought, he quickly spoke up.
Silva's expression remained calm and composed as he nodded.
Before coming here, he had already met the boy from the Sharku Clan, who was considered a very outstanding child among ordinary people.
In no time at all.
Xia was brought here by Jorar. On the way, he heard Jorar talk about the Zoldyck Family clan all the way, and his little face still showed shock and disbelief.
Assassin Family from the Dark World!?
He seemed to have heard about it from other gangs when he was in Yorknew City!
Unexpectedly, I'm about to meet the real person right here in my own family!?
There was nothing particularly special about their meeting.
Although Xia could sense that the other party was a strong person, without Nen Ability, he could not directly perceive just how powerful the man in front of him was.
Soon, according to Xia's description.
After listening to the troubles the Sharku Clan had encountered in recent days, Silva nodded seriously and said in a deep voice.
"This matter involves Nen users, and without a doubt, your actions were correct..."
"If I had arrived any later, even if I had, perhaps all I could have done was avenge you..."
Upon hearing their words, Xia and Jorar's expressions tightened, and they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Take me to the place you said the Kalie Gang was destroyed to take a look. In the meantime, stay with me and don't leave."
Silva made this judgment after only a moment's thought.
Soon, several cars drove away from the Xierku Family's estate.
At the same time.
At Palu's home, Ian and his group were unaware of the impending crisis.
It took him almost an entire day, exhausting all his Nen, to finally test the range of power of the [White Crane Repayment Combo].
Without a doubt, this item is extremely powerful; it truly lives up to its Golden Legend!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could have a new profession, "Enchanter."
Palu hoped to obtain a "Longevity Lock" for his child, and with this unwavering belief, he finally succeeded!
Ian was also very surprised that the Miss White Crane had actually completed such a prop!
Others cannot see it.
But he can see!
On that small, silver Longevity Lock, a passage of text appeared.
"The Lock of a Father's Protection: Palu's Love".
"Effect:
Increases health by 5%.
Increases luck by 5%.
Increase evasion rate by 5%.
It's no exaggeration to say that when Ian saw these terms, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
He hadn't even dared to think about it.
Palu, an ordinary person, actually created such an amazing item using the [White Crane Repayment Combo].
He thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand.
Why is this item described in this way?
Even though Nobunaga's sword was just a slightly harder and sharper one, it still couldn't escape the category of an ordinary tool.
And this "Longevity Lock"!
The bonuses like "vitality, luck, and evasion rate" are practically like in-game items.
However, considering that the [White Crane Repayment Combo] is a game-like, trigger-based usage method, it's not entirely incomprehensible.
I just don't know if these terms will actually work!?
When Ian handed the props to Palu, his eyes were filled with complex emotions, his little hands were clenched tightly, and he gave her very serious instructions.
"Uncle Palu, when you get back, make sure the child wears this Longevity Lock carefully, hidden inside his clothes, and doesn't lose it."
After he finished speaking, he slowly released his grip.
"This is currently a one-of-a-kind prop..."
Ian wasn't sure either. Was it because Palu, as an ordinary person, wholeheartedly believed in the existence of the White Crane Immortal that he was able to obtain such a magical item?
The completion of this item consumed a full half of Ian's Nen.
If a Nen user were to use "Condensation" to observe it, they should also be able to detect the Nen swirling around the surface of this Longevity Lock.
It can also be considered a Nen Ability item.
It's just that other people can't see its attributes and abilities.
After that, Ian reminded everyone that when making wishes to obtain items, they could be as exaggerated as possible.
Then, using the [White Crane Repayment Combo], Chrollo, Machi, and the others were allowed to try and obtain the items they wanted.
Following Ian's suggestion, Chrollo received "A Book of Wonderful Records" as a reward for rescuing the white crane.
The function allows you to store all your knowledge, including books you've never read, so you can access them anytime.
This thing is more like a hard drive for books, somewhat similar to some of the gadgets in Doraemon, and it's not entirely unbelievable.
However, in today's internet age, there are plenty of substitutes available.
Ian thought the item was so-so, and no game data entries appeared for it.
However, Chrollo really liked it, and even his usually calm face broke into a rare smile. As soon as he got his hands on it, he couldn't help but sit on the sofa and start looking at it.
The items that Machi received were somewhat unexpected for Ian.
It's a grayish bandage, also a Nen tool, called "Healing Bandage".
Its function is to slow down the rate of blood loss throughout the body and provide some healing effects when wrapped around the user, depending on the amount of Nen supplied to it.
The appearance of this item finally made up for Ian's disappointment at not drawing any "medical items" these past few days.
Without a doubt.
The effect of this item alone would make it Nen Ability item that people would fight tooth and nail to get their hands on if it were in the outside world!
At Ian's reminder, several items obtained through the [White Crane Repayment Combo] subsequently acquired Nen-attribute effects.
Let Ian know that this item truly deserves its "Golden Legend" status!
It's totally worth it!
It was worth it for him to stay home these past few days; he really got lucky!
When Uvogin saw everyone taking out their magical gadgets, his face turned green with rage, and he nearly crumpled the beer can in his hand into a pretzel.
"Ian, what do you think?"
After receiving the "Healing Bandage," Machi quickly wrapped it around her arm and waved it at Ian with a smile.
Wearing it on your body allows you to immediately unleash its power even if you are injured in battle.
"Not bad, she looks like a female warrior!"
Ian gave Machi a thumbs up, making her beam with delight.
I don't know why.
She felt happy whenever Ian praised her.
"Finally, it's my turn. But, Ian, I still haven't decided what I want!"
When it was Feitan's turn, he walked over, looking somewhat conflicted.
After seeing the items that Chrollo and Machi obtained, it would be a lie to say he wasn't envious.
The thought of Uvogin taking dozens of cans of beer made him want to burst out laughing; that idiot always liked to do stupid things.
However, Ian will definitely do it to that guy again, so it doesn't matter.
As for myself...
Then he heard Ian speak.
"It's alright, Feitan. This was just a test of the item's ability, and also to have some fun for everyone. Don't worry about it too much."
Even if you don't like the items you get, you can change them later!
"Anyway, I've always been here!"
Hearing Ian's words.
At that moment, Feitan felt something warm rising from his chest. He raised his hand and unconsciously covered his beating heart, pretending not to care.
"That's true. With Ian here, we don't need to worry..."
With us here...
The enemy wants to touch you...
Only... past our corpses!!
Feitan quickly proceeded with a series of events involving the White Crane's Gratitude, culminating in the final moment.
What kind of reward would you like?
"I want a weapon that can kill, a weapon that can... kill the enemy in the most cruel way!!"
Feitan said in a calm, deep voice.
Palu, who was standing nearby, was stunned when he heard this and quietly moved away.
Upon hearing Feitan's words, the Miss White Crane did not make any unusual moves.
When the props were completed, Ian was taken aback and looked at Feitan in surprise.
It's happened again!
Game data terms!
