Netero's Shock × Shoot, God Spear

The C-rank Chimera Ant Squadron Leader has surpassed most ordinary Nen user, non-elite Hunter, and the exceptionally talented Spiders, making him completely untouchable.

What's more, what appeared before them was... an endless, countless C-rank "Mad Louse" legion!

"Heh heh... looks like things are getting serious." At that time, Netero was at the peak of his life. His trip to the Dark Continent had two purposes: first, he had accepted a commission from the Kukan'yu Kingdom to find the "Triple Water"... second, and most importantly... Netero wanted to challenge his limits, venture into the Dark Continent, and spar with even more powerful masters!

"It's coming!" Linne held a pot as a shield in one hand and a shovel as a sword in the other, his gaze fixed intently ahead. Beside him, Jager, composed and unhurried, turned to look at Roy and said, "Sun-Earring Boy, aren't you going to run?"

The appearance of Sandworm has already terrified many people. Some, having finally calmed down, are then confronted with swarms of giant lice, their sharp mandibles open, charging towards them with a deafening roar. Those with weaker constitutions may faint instantly, their eyes rolling back in their head. But, can running... really solve the problem?

The landing boats had already been whipped to pieces by the Sandworm ' tails; otherwise, where would the "sampans" and "rudders" have come from?

People... in the end, they still have to face reality... Roy remained silent, stretched out his right hand, materialized Asauchi sword in his hand, and instead of retreating, he advanced, charging headlong at the Louse Swarm, raising his hand to unleash a flying slash wrapped in flames!

His great-grandfather reminded him this morning, "The greatest truths are the simplest..." The Sun-Earring Boy had a bellyful of ideas but nowhere to put them to use, so he chased after the slashing attack and charged into the Louse Swarm, drawing his sword and hacking away!

"Heh heh... he's in such a hurry."

"Isn't that commendable courage?"

"I actually think... the Sun-Earring Boy's Swordsmanship is quite good..."

Netero, Linne, and Jager exchanged a knowing glance. One flashed a Buddha-like Buddha Light, another wielded a spatula, and yet another brandished a hand knife. They followed closely behind, rushing into the Louse Swarm. From above, each person stood in a distinct line, clearly separated from the others!

"Bite..

What a tough shell!

Roy swung his blade at the head of a Mad Louse, making a crisp "clang" sound, as if he had struck a piece of fine steel coated with [hardness]!

The blade snapped upwards, almost slipping from his grasp, but Roy flicked his wrist in mid-air and caught it firmly in his hand again!

He clicked his tongue in astonishment... Each of these lice was no less formidable than the Pig-headed Monster like Sajin and Gordan he encountered in the illusion during the Hunter Exam. Perhaps... they weren't as intelligent, but their entire shells were infused with [Strength], and their ferocious charge was something even ordinary Nen user would find difficult to withstand...

"Crustaceans typically have weak points on their abdomen and mouth. If you can't cut through their shells, try other areas."

Jager pierced a louse's head with a [Snake Awakening] strike imbued with [Firmness], then summoned several "Biscuit Soldier"—wearing horned helmets, carrying greatswords, and sporting long beards—who burrowed low to the ground and stabbed louses in the abdomen, accompanied by several piercing screams of agony...

Seeing this, Roy seemed to be deep in Netero Jager Linne, who had been watching him closely, were taken aback.

Spatial Nen Ability are quite rare...

Netero chopped a louse away with a single palm strike, then kicked another louse that was biting him from the side, killing it instantly. Then... his fists, palms, elbows, and legs completely ignored the louse's hard shells, relying solely on brute force to carve a bloody path through the Louse Swarm!

Looking at the Sun-Earring Boy's direction again... Roy was actually progressing faster than him. Relying on the [Swamp Space] to sneak underground, and using the [Circle] to pinpoint the location of the Louse Swarm, he was like a "Biscuit Soldier," specifically targeting the weakest parts of the Louse Swarm's abdomens to poke them. He killed one as soon as it surfaced. Compared to... a certain "Enhancement" "Strongest Human" who only knew how to "brute force," he saved time and effort, and soon killed six or seven lice in succession... [Hint: Life Energy +5 +5 +5... (Note: Non- Wise Species), Life Energy halved...]

"This guy is simply the nemesis of these crustacean Magic Beast." Linne swatted a louse away with a wok, then smashed a mandible that was attacking her with a spatula. He kept a sliver of his eye on Roy, his beautiful eyes gleaming.

"Sizzle..." A white blade went in, a red blade came out. Wherever there was a swamp, there was "Soul Reaper"... Jager, standing next to Roy, saw it more clearly than Netero and Linne. The Sun-Earring Boy's sword strikes seemed to be taking shortcuts... but there seemed to be a certain consideration between each strike, indicating that he... was thinking!

Perhaps it's because the Zoldyck naturally gifted with intuition, or perhaps it's because they both belong to the "Conjuration, allowing them to understand each other better than those of other types... Jager's feeling was right... Roy was thinking, and trying...

Combining [Swamp Space] and [sword] to create his own unique sword techniques... Since [True Meaning of Scorching Heat] combined with [sword] and [Firmness] can be fused into [Zanka no Tachi]... and [Magnetism] combined with [sword] and [Firmness] can be fused into [Gravity Blade]... there's no reason why [Swamp Space] and [sword] can't be combined... Lost in thought, the Sun-Earring Boy's "clever" killing spree finally provoked "public wrath"!

With a deafening roar from the Sandworm... the moment Roy reopened the swamp, dozens of lice suddenly curled up into a ball and followed him into the swamp. [Earth Release Share...]

[Symbiotic Borrowing...]

As a host, the Sandworm seemed to be able to lend its innate Nen Ability Borrowing the Mad Louse. Taking advantage of Roy's burrowing, it Borrowing one of its innate Nen Ability, [Earth Release], to the Mad Louse, causing them to follow Roy underground. They immediately curled up into a ball, covering their vulnerable abdomens, and their thick, "hard" armor plates stood up one by one, forming sharp knives that pierced towards Roy!

The swamp closed and vanished in an instant...

The ground was empty, with no trace of the Sun-Earring Boy... Jager frowned, raised his hand, and conjured a [Mace]. The Game notes... the Two-Headed Troll's "exclusive" weapon, "Heavy Strike" +50%. With a horizontal sweep and a spin, he smashed the heads of countless Mad Louse!

He used the [Circle] to search for the Sun-Earring Boy's whereabouts, buying himself some time.

"Heh heh... Sun-Earring Boy aren't that fragile, Jager... focus." With a supersonic punch, one of them was sent to his death in an instant. Netero, covered in blood, glanced over and said quietly.

He casually raised his palm, swatting away several Mad Louse had circled behind Linne to launch a sneak attack... Linne's twin ponytails swayed with the force of his palm strike. Holding a spatula, he put one hand on his hip, took a breath, and said, "Spatial Nen Ability is quite rare. Jager was right. In the future... we might have to rely on that Sun-Earring Boy."

Running away when you can't win has always been Linne's first survival rule, which has allowed her to thrive on the front lines of elite Hunter. She didn't come to challenge her limits like Netero did; her trip... aside from witnessing the legendary "Triple Water" that can transform into anything, was primarily about... finding [ingredients]!

For a seasoned Gourmet Hunter, nothing is more important than food or ingredients. "It's a pity the Sun-Earring Boy was hiding his talent too well. Otherwise, if I had known he had this skill, I would have cooked more dishes to build a better relationship with him..." Linne lamented inwardly.

"It's not too late," said Jager suddenly.

The Nen Qi formed a circle and seeped into the ground, seemingly discovering something. Netero and Linne, sensing something, turned their heads to look—

With a loud "boom," the ground burst open, and dozens of Mad Louse were strung together like candied hawthorns by an Infinite long samurai sword, planted on the ground like a flagpole. It exuded a terrifying aura, forcing the frenzied army of Mad Louse to come to a halt and fall silent!

"What kind of move is that?" Linne swallowed hard, looking up at the samurai sword that stretched hundreds of meters into the sky, and teased Netero, "That looks even more powerful than your Buddha's Hand."

Of course... the 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva has a hundred hands, while the long sword, though long, has only one. In terms of quantity, Netero undoubtedly has a huge advantage. Moreover... the swamp reappeared, Sun-Earring Boy crawled out of the ground in a sorry state, clearly unable to maintain the massive Nen Qi consumption caused by the sudden extension of the "hundred-meter-long sword".

He retracted the knife, reverting to his Asauchi stance, and with a flick of his wrist, slammed it to the ground, beginning to pant heavily...

"Bang... bang... bang..." The Mad Louse, losing its grip on the longsword, plummeted helplessly...

Jager was closest to Roy and the only one who used [En] to capture his current state, so he could see it more clearly than Netero and Linne... The Sun-Earring Boy seemed to have combined his [Nen Ability] and [sword] to create an incredible sword technique!

"What's the name of this move?" He looked at Roy with admiration, repeating Linne's question, asking on behalf of Netero, and also asking on his own behalf.

Curiosity drives humans to deepen their understanding of each other.

Roy, leaning on his Short Blade, recovered his Nen Qi and replied, "[God Spear]."

"Utilizing the extensibility of [space], the blade is lengthened and fired out unexpectedly like a gun."

After carefully considering it, Jager exclaimed, "A good name."

In Conjuration " and "unfettered imagination," it is indeed unmatched by other categories.

Indeed, as Jager said... under the overarching premise of intentionally merging [the Swamp Space] and [the sword]...

Following the overarching principle of "borrowing," then "imitating," and finally "creating," Roy immediately thought of "Knov" and his Nen Ability... [The Hide and Seek]...

When the other party attacks the "Chimera Ant" in the future, they will use methods such as "setting up entrances", "creating apartments" and "controlling apartment keys" to Gate of Opening at will and pull people in, highlighting the flexibility of "space".

Unfortunately, Roy knew he wasn't Knov; his object of Visualization was the "sun" rather than "space," and his understanding of "space" was clearly inferior to Knov's. However, this didn't stop him from trying to utilize one aspect of "space"—its "extensibility"...

Turn the knife into a gun, and deliver a vicious blow to those Mad Louse!

As it turns out, he didn't go down the wrong path; the Mad Louse that fell on his feet were proof of that!

You did a great job, but...

A deafening roar echoed... and the Mad Louse "awakened."

The Sandworm itself slammed its tail down!

Jager stepped forward, gripping his Mace tightly, shielding the Sun-Earring Boy behind him. He took a deep breath and said, "The big one is coming!"
