Chapter 203: Exploration × substitution × is there an Exorcism Master?
To explore the Fifth Floor, Joey naturally did not head out himself. Instead, he stayed in the Regular Room on the Fifth Floor where he and Hisoka had appeared together.
To save time, he had used Fugetsu's ability to jump straight from the Third Tier to the Fifth Floor this time. Otherwise, he would have had to pass through the Fourth Tier to get down here.
The entrances to every floor were now guarded by Kakin King's Army. Without a legitimate reason and identification, getting downstairs was no easy matter.
Especially since there were Nen users among Kakin's people, using Mirage still carried some risk of discovery.
But he had not brought Fugetsu and Kacho down with him, so he could only return one floor at a time on his own.
His departure had also dashed Piyon's earlier plans. According to Joey, he still needed her help looking after the two girls for at least another two or three days.
And since he was searching for the coffin area, Cheadle could hardly fault him. She could only ask Piyon to put her current assignment off for a while.
Hidden in his room, Joey stuck to his old method, constantly producing Gold Experience creations and sending them out to gather information for him while he marked various key points on his map.
This was painstaking work, so there was no rushing it.
Joey had plenty of patience, too, since these circumstances also made it easier for him to divide his attention and operate his clone.
Fortunately, the clone created with Ming's aura had no distance restrictions, allowing him to control it as naturally as his own limbs.
Sakada had returned from the V Area and gone straight to Joey's clone.
