Persuasion X Conversation

"Phew, at least I scared her away."

Melusina watched Neferpitou leave, let out a heavy sigh, and the pressure gradually disappeared.

"Let's go, this is not a place to stay."

"The situation is safe," Men Qi said to Melusina, riding on her Griffin.

"Little White, hurry up and bring your friend up here."

After saying that, she shouted at Killua.

Killua nodded, picked up Gon, and placed him on the Griffin's back.

"We have wounded here, and surely one Griffin can't fit them all?"

Buhaci scratched his head and said.

Although the Griffin are large, there are six of them here.

Hearing this, Men Qi looked at him with some displeasure.

Looking at the other person, whose body remained enormous even after using Nen ability.

"There won't be any problems without you."

These words left Buhara speechless, for it was indeed the truth.

It's not just about him taking up extra space; he's probably worth three adult males.

Men Qi muttered to herself, but still obediently raised her hand, and her Nen Aura surged out, creating another Nen Beast.

This time, a giant snake was constructed.

Of course, it wasn't the Resentful Eater Snake that had been killed before, but the Tentacle Giant Python that had been killed in the Village.

This is also a creature of considerable size.

Upon seeing that it was a snake, Melusina's eyes lit up, and she jumped directly onto the snake's head.

"I'll sit here, but are you capable of creating two of these large creatures now?"

Hearing Melusina's words, Men Qi rolled her eyes and straddled the Griffin's neck.

"I don't believe you can't see that these two are just for show; they're pretty much at their limit when it comes to moving things."

Simply put, she has no practical combat ability whatsoever. It would be a stretch to divide her Nen power into two types of behemoths.

"This is a good thing. In the past, even if something was merely a facade, it was impossible to distinguish two of them."

Buhara leaned back and said.

When Men Qi was developing her Nen ability, she never intended to limit the number of Nen Beast she could materialize.

To be honest, from the beginning, Men Qi never intended to gain combat power through this Nen ability.

After all, it involves observation, combat, dissection, and tasting.

Following this process, it wouldn't be a very powerful being; she had always set up this Nen ability as a functional Nen ability.

For example, creating special birds or small animals for reconnaissance purposes.

She has always approached building her capabilities with this mindset.

Previously, they relied on Seasoning Arrow and their own melee attacks for the main combat.

Who would have thought that in the end, they would eat a bird of prey like Griffin?

The more creatures you personally hunt and taste, the stronger this ability becomes.

After everyone was settled, they began to leave.

And far away.

At the top of the Ant Nest, Neferpitou's eyes remained fixed fiercely on the departing group.

Those malicious gazes pierced everyone's backs like needles.

At this moment, Neferpitou was still muttering hateful words through gritted teeth.

It's nothing more than saying they'll be crushed to dust later.

Melusina and the others, whom she hated, only felt truly at ease after leaving a certain area.

We left the forest and came to a plain.

The Griffin lowered its flight altitude to be level with the snake's head.

Things ended a little better than they had hoped.

They had read the prophecy before they came, Melusina herself had been prophesied about it.

The prediction given at the time didn't seem to indicate any immediate danger to life, but it did suggest a risk of serious injury.

Men Qi was even prophesied to die in it.

This is also why they know they can't actually go inside that nest.

The current situation is already much better than what was predicted.

Men Qi looked at Melusina standing on the snake's head, frowned, and asked with slight worry, "Fighting a monster like that, you couldn't possibly be unharmed, right? Aren't you going to drink some potions?"

She had always assumed that Melusina had stopped using the potion just now because she was worried about losing her fighting ability due to the side effects of overuse and wasting the healing effect.

"I'm not injured, just a little sore."

Her Nen ability had reached its final form several years ago, when Kevin proposed.

Although they don't plan to get married in the next few years, they have indeed made Betrothal.

They are not just making a verbal promise; they are already husband and wife in a legal sense.

When Kevin proposed and she put the ring on her finger, their Nen ability solidified the Betrothal in its final stage.

When exchanging rings, the couple's Wedding Ring, under certain circumstances, become a kind of contractual document and Nen tool.

The final ability is also very simple.

Both parties can freely share each other's belongings, although there are certain limitations on what can be borrowed, the scope is very broad.

From the amount of Nen to Nen ability, and even aptitude for Nen, everything can be borrowed.

For example, Kevin now shares Melusina's talent for a long time.

In essence, Kevin's talent is not outstanding; he only became powerful due to special circumstances and the development of his Nen ability.

Originally, physical talent and spiritual talent were contradictory, but after borrowing Melusina's talent, this problem no longer exists.

In some ways, Melusina can also be considered a genius.

Moreover, this ability is shared by both parties in love, not borrowed.

Therefore, it is possible for two people to possess the same ability at the same time.

When Melusina shares Kevin's abilities, she can usually only choose two or three due to Kevin's numerous Nen ability and techniques.

During the battle, she borrowed the ability to inject drugs.

He also borrowed the power of Snake Scale.

The reason she chose the Snake Scale ability is because it suits her perfectly, even better than Kevin's own.

And she knew perfectly well why.

It should be noted that her physique had already been strengthened to its limit. With the effect of the Snake Scale being distributed, coupled with her equally strong Nen, she was able to engage in a fierce close-quarters battle with that Cat Woman.

It allows one to withstand the opponent's force without suffering serious injuries such as broken bones.

"You two are getting more and more perverted. When will you stop being human?"

Men Qi couldn't help but complain.

Previously, only Kevin was a pervert, but later, for some reason Melusina also started to develop in a perverted direction.

These sarcastic words brought a bright smile to Melusina.

She stretched out her hand and shook the Wedding Ring on it.

Men Qi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

It was quite interesting when they were still dating, but now that they're an old married couple, it's become tiresome.

"Don't worry, you won't be weak when you get there."

"The Dark Continent."

Men Qi sighed.

These two individuals did indeed experience a rapid increase in strength during their time on the Dark Continent.

The main reason is that Kevin was such a perfect fit for that place.

She also had some anticipation for that top-tier potion, the kind that would leave a permanent mark even after someone else had used it.

Although we're not martial arts fanatics, who would refuse someone with great strength?

Not to mention the mouthwatering food there.

Of course, there are also dangers.

"Shouldn't you two be talking about these Chimera Ant right now?"

Buhaci, leaning against the snake's back below, couldn't help but complain and offer a reminder to the two of them.

Then he received grateful looks from Kite and Killua, who were now more focused on this.

But it wasn't appropriate to interrupt the two women who were having a pleasant conversation.

Men Qi could only shrug helplessly at this.

"What can we do? You saw how incredibly strong those Royal Guards are. We're definitely out of options; we can only call for reinforcements."

We're already pushing ourselves to the limit.

"Besides, Kevin had already made a phone call when we came in. The Hunter Association already knows, and the Chairman isn't senile; he should understand the danger of this incident and will definitely send someone capable."

Men Qi said they had no other options but to wait.

After speaking, she turned around with some curiosity to look at the three people behind her.

Gon was still unconscious at this time, but his injuries were indeed very serious. Even with medicine, it would probably take some time for him to recover.

It's still unknown when he'll wake up.

Kite's severed hand has been reattached, but it's not yet flexible enough and needs readjustment, repair, and adaptation.

Kevin's potion wasn't so miraculous that it could immediately restore a severed hand to its original state after it was reattached.

Of course, it's also possible that the potion itself isn't of a high grade, and there aren't any high-grade alternatives.

Are there many people in the Royal Guard rank?

Men Qi is only curious about this one question right now.

She had already witnessed the power of beings at this level.

When she read the prophecy, she wondered how powerful the other party must be; now that she had witnessed it firsthand, she realized that the other party was indeed invincible. Kite shook her head.

"It's not certain. It depends on the nutrition the Ant Queen gets. After settling down and building the nest, she will give birth to her Royal Guard in the same batch."

"In the same batch, the quantity may be three to five, depending on the nutritional content obtained."

"Then she will begin to nurture the Ant King herself, which will consume all her energy, but the birth of her Royal Guard means that the Ant Queen has already begun to nurture the Ant King."

This is exactly what Kite was worried about.

Since the Ant King is already being conceived, no one knows exactly how long the gestation period will last.

"In the same batch, and only one appeared, optimistically speaking, it might be because the guards were so strong that only one appeared."

"But if you think about it logically, doesn't that just mean the monster was a newborn baby?"

Even within the same batch, there will definitely be a sequence.

If only one appeared, doesn't that mean it has only been hatched for a short time, definitely no more than a week?

Judging from the Nen ability technique the other person used, it's clear they've just learned it.

"If they develop well later, even if they only have a month, that would be incredible."

A look of worry appeared on Men Qi's face.

This is the shock of race; it's a bit too much.

Kite, however, offered a small measure of comfort using her expertise.

"These creatures cannot be viewed entirely with human thinking. They are different from humans and are already very close to adulthood after birth."

"Humans grow and have a long growth process, but for Chimera Ant, the growth process is extremely dangerous. They have to do their best to complete the growth process before they even hatch."

"This is almost ingrained in the Chimera Ant's own genes; it won't be altered by human genes. I can confirm this based on what I've seen and experienced along the way."

Human genes are just one part of a combination, but they just happen to be very useful.

The basis for this combination is still the original genes of the Chimeric Ant itself.

Melusina, who had been to the Dark Continent, nodded in agreement.

"That's right. The more powerful a creature is, the more ideas and methods it has used in its growth process."

If even this cannot be avoided, a race cannot become powerful.

"However, the integration of human genes, allowing them to possess personalities like humans, has become somewhat troublesome."

All living beings possess Nen Aura), because it is the embodiment of life.

However, not all living beings possess Nen ability.

Because Nen ability equals ten times the power of will.

If they were normal Chimeric Ant, even if they possessed so-called Nen ability, those abilities would all be the same.

Perhaps it would be clearer to explain it in terms of racial abilities.

What makes human Nen ability special is that humans possess what we call individuality; different wills lead to different Nen ability.

Chimera Ant, however, use human genes.

It's like having a naturally strong physique, a human personality, and the purity of an ant.

This resulted in terrifying Nen ability.

"But on the bright side, at least they're not strange; they're the kind of powerful that's visible."

That's what I meant.

Even Killua couldn't help but ask.

"What's the meaning?"

Is this considered a positive thing to think about?

Killua somewhat confused.

This is something that's difficult to explain to Killua.

Melusina simply said, "Because it's not strange, it doesn't seem unsolvable, just like Little Wang."

Killua didn't know what Little Wang was, but judging from the expressions of the people around him, they seemed to know what it was and understood it.

Then Killua suddenly realized something.

Back then, inside the Manor, I sensed, consciously or unconsciously, something that sent chills down my spine as it lingered around me.

Those things can indeed be scarier than Chimera Ant.

Let's leave that topic aside.

Kite, supporting her hand, thought for a moment and said, "Isn't Kevin coming?"

He thought Kevin would be very interested in this place.

Moreover, although he didn't ask, he knew that the emergency arrival of this support was definitely there to save him.

Although it's unclear how Kevin knew this and sent capable people to provide support, it shows that Kevin was paying attention to the situation and was interested.

Kevin didn't come under these circumstances; something must have happened to him.

"He's incubating the eggs; they should be here soon."

"Incubate eggs?"

The two were puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions.

"Hopefully, it will be the Twelve Zodiacs that come this time, otherwise there's absolutely no way to solve the problem here."

That's all Kite could think.

These words made Melusina give him a strange look. "Not every one of the Twelve Zodiacs Branches is strong."

At least half of the characters are no match for Neferpitou in terms of strength.

Not to mention that many of them are people with strong professional knowledge and highly valuable functional Nen ability.

"Yeah?"

Kite's impression of the Twelve Zodiacs mainly came from her teacher.

He thought that everyone in this organization, if not all of them were stronger than his master, should at least be on the same level.

It now seems that this is not the case.

"The fact that this incident was deliberate has been confirmed by various sources. The fact that they were able to do such a thing means that they had already considered the Hunter Association's response."

"So, things might not be as simple as we think."
