Kevin has just arrived.

He gazed at the crowd before him.

The three of them Melusina, all seemed to be in good condition, but it was clear they had been in a fight last night.

Meanwhile, Morel and the tall, thin man in the suit beside him were in even more stable condition.

I just didn't see the Chairman.

You're here!

Melusina ran over with a smile and hugged Kevin, kissing him on the cheek before letting him go.

After nodding slightly to Men Qi and the other woman as a greeting, Kevin turned to look at Morel.

"Long time no see, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Hahaha! What's that word again? Fate, that's destiny."

Morel laughed heartily.

He was acquainted with Kevin and Melusina.

After all, when we went to pick them up before, we had spent several months on the ship.

The ship is only so big, and life on board is very boring.

So they often got together to play cards, fish, eat, drink, and have fun, and their relationship was naturally quite good.

"Who is this?"

Kevin looked at the last stranger he didn't recognize.

Nobu adjusted his glasses and extended his hand to shake Kevin's.

"Nobu, one of the team members recruited by the Chairman."

"Kevin, you could say he's an uninvited guest."

Nobu nodded and said with a smile, "I've heard of your reputation before; you should be considered a powerful supporter."

Kevin smiled at this and didn't say anything more.

After chatting for a few minutes, Kevin looked around and asked in confusion.

Where is the Chairman?

Logically speaking, given his keen perception, he shouldn't have failed to sense such a powerful figure.

The old man was a pure Martial Faction. His ability to conceal his aura was decent for an ordinary Nen user, but for someone like him who had experienced the Dark Continent and possessed exceptionally keen Nen user, it was difficult to hide.

Not to mention this is a battlefield.

"In my Apartment, the Chairman was warming up, while the two of us were responsible for bringing Chairman the training punching bags."

Nobu adjusted his glasses and explained slightly.

Although it sounded confusing, Kevin nodded, roughly understanding what it meant.

In other words, the Nen ability of the person in front of you is of a spatial nature, Chairman to eliminate enemies within it; however, the actual combat can only be considered a warm-up.

Just then, Nobu's phone rang.

A short message arrived.

"Open the door."

Upon seeing the text message, Nobu looked up at Kevin and said, "The Chairman is coming out."

As he spoke, he crouched down, and a round hole appeared in the ground.

Netero jumped out from inside.

Netero, who had jumped out, twisted his body vigorously in a vest and let out a comfortable sigh.

"Oh dear, these old bones of mine haven't moved around like this in ages."

Kevin stared at the old man in front of him.

At this stage, Netero is gradually regaining his form, and he no longer hides his imposing presence.

Therefore, Kevin could see it very clearly.

The opponent's aura and thoughts were mixed together, giving Kevin the impression of a thousand-armed Guanyin.

This was the first time Kevin had experienced such a powerful aura so concretely, and it had already left a substantial impression.

How did you do that?

Has the skill level of this Nen ability reached such a depth?

That's really impressive.

While Kevin was observing Netero was also observing Kevin.

After watching for a while, Netero suddenly smiled.

Nobu, who knew Netero well, turned his head slightly and adjusted his glasses.

Seeing that smile, he knew Netero had bad intentions.

"Kid, I'm getting back into form. How about a sparring session?"

Really.

Biscuit knew her master's character well and had warned Kevin early on.

Kevin simply raised his hand and waved it away, indicating his polite refusal.

"No, old man, I don't like fighting. Let's think about how to get rid of these Chimera Ant quickly."

Netero didn't urge him.

He sat cross-legged on the spot and watched Kevin shake his chin.

"The nest is right there, can you spot anything?"

Kevin turned his head to look at the nest in the distance. With his eyesight, he could clearly see what the nest looked like.

And the Cat Woman sitting atop Nest J, and Cat Woman -like Nen Beast standing at different heights, all guarding the area.

She seemed to sense Kevin's gaze.

The Cat Woman turned her head and met Kevin's gaze, who was almost invisible.

Even from this distance, Kevin could clearly feel the malice and murderous intent in those eyes.

"How perceptive! She could detect it from such a distance?"

To be honest, at such a distance, even if someone were looking at Kevin with malicious intent, without his knowledge,

They are also difficult to detect.

He squinted and looked closely.

Then they discovered a huge circle, centered on the Ant Nest, spreading haphazardly outwards with indistinct Boundary and protrusions of varying sizes, constantly moving.

These randomly scattered circles almost completely protected the nest, making it difficult to reach within a radius of several kilometers.

The presence of such a circle is enough to demonstrate that this Chimera Ant's sensory abilities are definitely not weak.

"She's become wary of us, hasn't she?"

Men Qi nodded in response to Kevin's question.

They had already alerted the enemy from the very beginning.

Therefore, this is a game in which everyone is aware of the other's existence and their respective objectives.

"In that case, there's no need to hide it anymore."

Kevin slowly raised his palm, looked straight ahead, and his entire body surged with Nen Aura.

A large amount of compressed air could be seen in front of him.

Morel's forehead was covered in sweat.

Is the normal volume of gas really that large?

And what is this all about? It's impossible to launch an attack from such a distance, is it?

Besides, isn't Kevin a pharmaceutical engineer? Shouldn't he give himself a couple of injections to boost his fighting condition before the battle?

This is the general impression people have of Kevin.

What exactly happened to make it look like this?

As for Melusina and the others, they naturally understood what Kevin was doing.

He gathered his Nen Aura and unleashed it with a powerful burst.

A pillar of thought pierced through the air in an instant and arrived at the Ant Nest ahead in no time.

It pierced directly through the Cat Woman's circle and passed through the nest.

At such a great distance.

This circle appeared and disappeared quickly, lasting for less than three seconds.

The Chimera Ant in the Ant Nest were immediately stressed by the sudden burst of gas, and chaos ensued.

Even as the anger dissipated, it did not calm down.

Kevin then slowly lowered his hand.

"Is that a circle?"

Nobu asked in a murmur.

Although he had heard of irregular circles before, the first time he saw one was on Cat Woman.

This time, however, it seems so exaggerated when it happens to a human, instantly traversing more than ten kilometers to reach such a distant place.

"Young people these days are really something else."

Netero stood up at some point, covered his brow with his hand, gazed into the distance, and sighed.

"Have you discovered any valuable intelligence?"

Men Qi asked curiously.

Although they had been here for a week, they had been hunting on the periphery to eliminate any resistance that might arise when they stormed into the nest.

They had absolutely no idea what was happening inside the nest.

How many guards are there exactly? Besides Cat Woman, what are the strength levels of the other guards?

How many Division Leader are there? And how many of them are truly powerful?

Kevin remained silent for a moment.

He then said helplessly, "It's very troublesome. In my opinion, even if our current team were to break in, we might not be able to achieve our goal."

"In my perception, there are three beings of the same level as that Cat Woman, who should be her three Royal Guards."

Hearing this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

According to calculations, the guardians should have hatched by now.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will probably only be three.

That's actually a good thing, because they expected three to five, but now they've taken the minimum number.

"But we have a hard time dealing with these three guards. We only have three people here who can handle three guards."

Kevin then looked at Netero.

"Old man, do you think you can solve one of them quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Netero rubbed his chin.

"Not now. I need a considerable amount of time to get back into form. Maybe then I can."

He shook his head slightly and sighed as he spoke.

"I'm getting old; I don't have the same energy I had when I was young."

So, you're not at your peak yet? You need to rediscover your fighting form to reach your current peak strength?

That's a real old monster.

However, Nen ability truly do move at will and act at will.

Kevin couldn't help but think of it.

Netero is definitely an expert in Nen ability; he's been the world's number one Nen user for decades.

In other words, there may not be any rivals of the same caliber for decades.

The passage of time was so long that his strength was worn away by the invisible passage of time and disappeared into his body.

But as a top-tier martial artist, he naturally wouldn't allow his strength to diminish.

However, it takes a considerable amount of time to bring back the will that was once buried within the body.

Nobu immediately understood Kevin's idea.

"In other words, our strength is only enough to hold off three guards to the best of our ability."

By saying this, Kevin is obviously implying that he himself could be one of them.

In addition, there are Netero and Melusina.

Although the three have varying levels of skill, the problem is that they all need to spend time.

Even someone as strong as Netero would need time to deal with a Royal Guard; in this situation, it's because the opponent has stalled him.

The weakest of them all Melusina, managed to hold off one of the guards.

In general, a three-on-three match is inevitable within a certain timeframe.

Could the remaining few of them handle so many Division Leader and Chrollo, and then take down the Ant Queen?

That's obviously impossible.

"Given that they have already learned Nen ability and obtained sufficient information about them, it is highly likely that they will form a team to protect the lair from invasion."

Nobu also mentioned the most likely, and also the least desirable, possibility.

In the human world, there are quite a few Nen user, most of whom are being trained by various countries and organizations.

These Nen user may not be very strong, but their Nen ability are all involuntary.

If Chimera Ant also had Nen user, their chances of killing the Ant Queen would be even lower.

And this possibility is not low.

"Those under the guard should be the Division Leader. There are twenty-five of them in the lair, and there are many more below them, exceeding one hundred."

Kevin then mentioned another number that worried them.

Each Division Leader already possessed an extremely elite level of Nen ability.

Even if the Chrollo were to bring him to the human world, it would still be a level that a normal Nen user could hardly reach.

If you think about it carefully, you'll realize the difficulties involved.

Morel said with some emotion.

"In that case, can we really solve this problem before the Ant King is born?"

Their goal was to kill the Ant Queen before the Ant King was born.

But it now seems quite difficult to complete.

"Then let's continue according to the previous plan."

Netero suddenly spoke up, then jumped back into the cave and returned to the Apartment.

They looked at each other in bewilderment.

"In that case, tell me about the current situation."

Kevin doesn't understand the overall situation yet.

As Melusina and others recounted their experiences.

Kevin and Kite, who had just arrived, learned about the situation.

Using their Nen ability and dividing into teams, the group had surrounded the entire nest, cutting off the Chimera Ant's means of hunting outwards.

"Then Kite and I will plug the remaining gaps. At least we'll cut off their food supply and weaken the impregnable walls."

Let's try to contain it this way for now.

Kevin then listed the things he would be doing next.

No one objected to this.

After making the decision, Kevin was about to chat with Melusina and the others for a while when another message came in.

The Chimera Ant seem to be preparing to send out more troops.

"Looks like I've arrived just in time."

Kevin smiled, and after confirming their location, he left with Kite.

Melusina and the others also headed in the other direction.

Watching Kevin leave.

Nobu couldn't help but ask, "When did such a powerful figure appear in this world?"

Morel looked up at the sky without saying a word.

He knew about it a few years in advance, but he couldn't say that.

Nobu was just talking to himself.

"Looking at the Waihao, I realized my understanding of Kevin was deceived."

After all, Kevin's most successful identity Waihao is that of a pharmacist, and he also owns a Pharmaceutical Company, which is very successful.

My impression of him has long been fixed on his support role.

This is extremely deceptive.

Even if you think he's good at fighting, you wouldn't expect him to be this good.

On the other side.

Kevin and Kite walked away into the distance.

"If that's the case, then neither now nor a month or two later will we be able to enter that nest."

Kite said helplessly.

This isn't necessarily a matter of strategy, but rather a matter of pure lack of skill.

The opponent's main force will absolutely not be lured into attacking.

"Nen ability are heavily reliant on intelligence. I don't think these ants have grasped this standard yet, given their overwhelming strength."

Kevin murmured.

Although time is tight, there is still some spare time.

Let's find out what's going on inside the Ant Nest first, and it would be best to learn about the Nen ability of those pitiful ants.
