More than an hour later, in the house where Palm lives.
Morel's two apprentices and Killua sat in a group, staring at Gon who was lying unconscious on the bed.
After two or three minutes, Knuckle finally couldn't help but ask, "How long will it take for him to wake up?"
"I don't know, Allen didn't mention it, but the doctor said that there is nothing serious physically." Killua replied in frustration, lowering his head.
There was no doubt that he had just been reprimanded not long ago, and he believed that all this was his fault. At this moment, his heart was filled with guilt and self-blame.
"Damn it! If only I hadn't fainted at that time!" Knuckle clenched his fists tightly, his eyes full of unwillingness and anger.
"I didn't expect Squadron Leader from Chimera Ant to be so powerful. Are people like us really qualified to join Subjugation Team?"
Shoot lowered his head, obviously falling into strong self-denial and doubt.
Because when he woke up and saw the pitted ground and the severely damaged environment around him, he immediately realized that the intensity of the battle was far beyond his imagination.
If Squadron Leader is like this, what about the more terrifying Royal Guard and the king?
Will my weak self become a burden to the teacher?
"The biggest difference between ants and us is their powerful physique and stronger vitality. In other words, when fighting Chimera Ant, you must be mentally prepared that your opponent has more energy, strength, speed, endurance, and defense than you. In particular, their body structure is completely different from ours. Many places that we think are fatal may be just ordinary injuries to them. So don't be careless, otherwise you may die in the next second."
Killua spoke out all the experiences he had just summarized in one breath.
Although he managed to squeeze out the needle in his brain with a sudden burst of energy at the last moment, and also used the new ability he developed - Godspeed, to cut a Squadron Leader into pieces.
But he understands that this does not mean that his strength surpasses Bihon.
Just the opposite!
Even though his strength suddenly increased so much under the control of extreme emotions, in the end he was just able to break through the opponent's "hardness" with his "hardness".
Especially Enhancement type is as hard as armor, almost like an iron plate. Every time you insert your finger, you will feel a sharp pain.
"You mean... we still have a chance?"
Knuckle raised his head suddenly, a glimmer of hope igniting in his eyes.
Killua nodded without thinking, "Ah! Of course there is a chance. Haven't you watched the news? For some reason, those ants suddenly launched an attack on densely populated cities in the surrounding areas. This also means that just relying on the few people Chairman Netero has We can't handle it at all. It's only a matter of time before we are called up. In addition, Allen will only be able to deal with those Squadron Leader who pose the greatest threat. The remaining captains and Soldier Ant will still have to be dealt with by us."
The words just fell!
A harsh cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.
Palm, who was sitting in the corner staring at the crystal ball, instantly jumped up from his chair, picked up the phone as quickly as possible, pressed the answer button, and greeted in a nervous and excited tone, "Master... Master! You finally called! Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Palm! Are Killua, Gon, Shoot and Knuckle all at your place?" Nobu asked directly.
"Yes! They are all here!" Palm quickly responded in the affirmative.
"Very good! Everyone, including you, will be a member of Subjugation Team from now on. Your first mission is to go to Blatt City next door and eliminate the ants that are causing mischief there. You have to be fast. If it is not done within twenty-eight hours, it will be regarded as a mission failure. Do you understand?" Nobu said with a hint of severity in his tone.
Palm nodded vigorously. "Understood! I will definitely not let you down."
After saying that, she immediately hung up the phone and shouted at several other people in the room, "You guys! Why are you still standing there stupidly? Move quickly!"
"But... what should Kejie do?" Killua asked in an uncertain tone.
"Take him on the road with you!"
Under the intimidation of Palm, who was holding two kitchen knives, the men in the room quickly chose to give in. Even Knuckle, the irritable old man, did not dare to show up.
After all, no one knows whether the two kitchen knives will hit them in the next second if they refuse or resist.
About ten minutes later, the group of people was in the rented truck, speeding towards the nearby city as fast as possible.
At the same time, Nobu, who was far away in another city, also breathed a sigh of relief and said without raising his head, "I just confirmed that your two apprentices, Gon and Killua are all fine, and Chimera Ant over there has also been completely eliminated. It seems that Allen has caught up."
"Hahahaha! The monster is indeed a monster! In such a short period of time, two places have been secured. It seems that the situation will be under control within a few days." Morel sighed with a laugh.
"Yes! And thanks to him launching that battle in advance, he directly destroyed a large number of Chimera Ant Burning Legion's active forces, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." Nobu took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows.
"Well! But the most important thing now is to find Queen and the conceived king! As long as these two most important leaders of the ant colony exist for one day, more ants can be created. By the way, where is the guy who was caught just now? Does it know something?" Morel turned around and looked behind.
But before he could find anything, Nobu replied with a wry smile, "Don't look for it. That guy was obviously possessed by some kind of ability, or it was determined by some kind of Restraints and Vows with his thoughts. Just when it was about to open its mouth to reveal something, its whole body exploded in an instant, killing several torturers as well."
After hearing this, Morel's face finally changed slightly. "You mean... the enemy has already anticipated this, so every ant that actively launches an attack on a densely populated area cannot reveal any useful intelligence?"
"That's right! Not only that, according to the information provided by Allen, all capabilities related to search and tracking have also been interfered with. The only thing we can hope for now is that we can find traces of Royal Guard and Queen in East Gorteau." Nobu explained with a serious expression.
no way!
Although he has reported to the Hunter Association several times, clearly stating that he is short of manpower and needs the help of a large number of Nen abilities experts.
But all this is like a mud cow drowning in the sea!
Under the operation of Vice President Pariston, Hunter Association cannot send out any decent hunters at the moment.
Morel obviously knew about this, and cursed in a low voice with a stinking face, "Shit! It's Association Special Division and Review Department again! These stubborn guys who have no idea about the actual situation only know about performance and contribution. They don't understand the harm of Chimera Ant at all!"
"Save it! Even Chairman Netero has been ignored by them, so what can you and I do. I hope Allen can work harder to calm down the turmoil and destruction caused by the ants as soon as possible. After all, Death is still very intimidating to a certain extent, especially when he is on our side. I believe those in the Hunter Association will not dare to do anything extraordinary for the time being."
After saying this, Nobu pulled Morel onto the slightly worn old jeep on the side of the road, quickly started the engine and drove east along the highway.
