Examine Satozz Walking to the center of the plain, I stopped.
The tall figure cast a long shadow in the sunlight, like an immovable mountain peak, emitting a kind of oppressive presence that was hard to ignore.
His voice was like a rushing waterfall, echoing across the entire plain: "As long as you can keep up with my pace, you will be able to reach it. Next, we will pass through the Lost Melody Wetland, commonly known as 'Scammer Wetland,' which is the only way to enter the second test site."
He then warned, "This wetland hides many rare birds and strange beasts unseen by the outside world. Many of them are magical beasts that specialize in preying on human flesh. These creatures are cunning and greedy. So please, everyone, do not fall behind. Otherwise, once you fall into a trap, don't expect to see the light of day again!"
Leorio couldn't help but furrow his brow and mockingly said, "This guy's words sound like a riddle. If you already know it's a scam, who would be foolish enough to fall for it?" He stroked his chin, his eyes revealing a hint of disdain.
Suddenly, another figure leaped out and stood opposite Examine Satozz at lightning speed. He loudly accused, "This person is a fraud, he is not the real examiner! I am the real examiner."
The surrounding candidates immediately became agitated, and voices of confusion arose: "Imposter? What's going on? Then who is he really?"
The man understood that without solid evidence, no one would believe him. So he shouted, "Don't believe me? Look at this!" as he took out a dead human-faced ape.
He continued to explain, "The people-faced apes in the Lost Beauty Wetlands specialize in eating human flesh. However, due to their slender physique and lack of strength, they often disguise themselves as humans to lure people into the wetlands, where they then hunt for prey alongside other monsters. The impostor examiner's goal is to capture us all!" He said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, three playing cards flew out and knocked the man down.
At the same time, Examine Satozz also flew four playing cards over, but he easily caught all of them.
Hisoka whistled and said, "So that's how it is."
The person who was lying on the ground earlier, with the face of a monkey, saw that the situation was not good and tried to escape, but was struck in the back by a playing card from Hisoka, and died on the spot.
Hisoka continued, "Examiners can only take office after passing the strict review of the Review Committee. With the strength of a senior hunter, it is naturally impossible to evade my attacks."
Examine Satozz flicked the playing cards in his hand and then said lightly, "Thank you for your explanation, but next time, no matter the reason, if you attack me, I will immediately disqualify you from the exam. Do you understand?"
Hisoka smiled and casually replied, "Understood." His voice carried a faint hint of disdain, but he cleverly concealed it.
After that, Examine Satozz quickly ran forward in big strides.
The Shimei Wetland, a swamp that seems to appear and disappear like a ghost, is filled with mist and unease, earning it the nickname "the lair of deceivers." At the same time, the strangeness of nature and human nature intertwine here without end.
Gon gently touched a reed at the edge of the swamp, his pupils shrinking as if communicating with nature. His green shirt and shorts, though covered in mud, seemed to blend in with the natural surroundings.
"Brother, I feel like my legs are about to break. Why doesn't the examiner stop?" Chi asked wearily, her pink dress already tainted by mud.
Gon turned around and smiled to comfort her: "Don't worry, we'll be fine. The animals and plants here have their own rules."
"Rules?" Leorio took off his sunglasses unhappily as he ran, revealing his brown pupils. "Are you saying these man-eating monsters, disguised as harmless creatures, are their rules?"
At that moment, Curarpikt walked over quietly, his eyes revealing a hint of confusion. "Are you discussing the danger of this wetland?"
"It's not just the animals, the plants here are also quite dangerous," Gon looked around vigilantly. "Like those seemingly Yoshimi flowers, they are actually man-eating flowers."
"Man-eating flowers? What a terrifying place," Curarpikt murmured, his gaze falling on several nearby " Yoshimi flowers."
"Even worse are those big frogs over there, they use their tongues to catch any passing creature," Gon pointed to a huge frog, sitting leisurely in a corner of the swamp.
"Look, that's no ordinary turtle!" Chi suddenly exclaimed, pointing to a turtle with strawberries disguised on its back, which is actually a monster turtle. It uses the 'strawberries' on its back to attract prey and then swallows them whole."
"This place is full of nature's tricks," Leorio sighed. "It looks like we need to be even more careful."
"Right," Curarpikt reminded, "every step here could be deadly."
At that moment, a scream echoed in the distance as an unidentified examinee was instantly captured by a man-eating flower, leaving only a scream and a mist of blood.
"It seems like this is not a suitable place for leisurely strolls," Gon said seriously.
"We should keep moving forward," Curarpikt suggested, "the sooner we leave this place, the better."
"Agreed," Gon and Chi responded in unison.
With Examine Satozz leading the way, everyone tensed their nerves and continued along the planned route.
Each person's steps were filled with vigilance, as if walking on a tightrope hidden with countless dangers. Several times, they narrowly avoided seemingly harmless but actually deadly crises.
Leorio Slowly exhaling, he seemed somewhat burdened as he said, "It feels like walking on thin ice here, one misstep and we could fall into the abyss."
Chi Turning around, she smiled in an attempt to boost everyone's morale, "But at least we're still alive, that's what matters most, isn't it?"
Curarpikt also responded with a smile, "Indeed, being able to survive and walk out of a place filled with unknowns and dangers is a victory in itself."
Gon listened and became even more determined, "Then let's continue moving forward."
He was worried that Chi might fall into a hidden trap or encounter an attack from a monster, so Gon decided to follow Killua to the front of the team.
They walked quickly for a while, but suddenly, Gon felt a strong killing intent. He turned around abruptly and rushed back to the rear of the team.
Killua asked in surprise, " Gon, what's wrong? What happened?"
Gon's tense face revealed determination: "I feel danger from behind, I need to go save them."
Chi immediately said, "Brother, let's go back!"
The runners in the back are crossing through heavy fog, their steps filled with vigilance and suspicion.
In this scene shrouded in mist, like the Scammer Wetland, a terrifying figure suddenly appears. It is none other than the legendary killer - Hisoka. This area was already filled with an atmosphere of instability, and Hisoka's appearance is like dropping a time bomb into this tense atmosphere.
His smile is like a sharp knife, giving people a chill. The three examinees following him already have playing cards stuck in them, their expressions are unbearable, and they have fallen to the ground.
"In fact, I originally planned to act after the second test began. But the first round was just too boring, so I decided to take action early and help the examiners with a little screening," Hisoka jeered.
"Haha, you said you want to help the examiner with the screening? What a joke! Can't you see how thick this fog is? Once you get separated from the chief examiner, there's no way to get back to him," a candidate retorted disdainfully.
"Which means, you'll be eliminated from the competition just like the rest of us," the candidate continued.
"Comparing me to you all is truly laughable," Hisoka sneered.
"Before you meet your end, let me give you a piece of advice: for a magician, nothing is impossible," Hisoka said coldly.
"You, as a murderer, are not worthy of being a hunter," another candidate said angrily.
"I'm going to make you disappear from this exam room forever," the third candidate said immediately after.
"I think a few of you using a playing card should be enough," Hisoka said with a sneer.
"Stop talking nonsense!" More than ten candidates couldn't bear it anymore and rushed towards Hisoka.
But in just five short moments, they were all accurately struck by playing cards and fell down.
"Hahaha, you're all out!" Hisoka laughed maniacally, his laughter echoing in the misty fog, intensifying the eerie atmosphere of the scene.
Hisoka's gaze suddenly fell not far away, where there were Leorio and Curarpikt, as well as another examinee, a total of three people.
"It looks like there are only three of you left," Hisoka's mouth curled up, revealing a chilling smile, and then he slowly approached.
The unknown examinee whispered, "After I give the signal, scatter immediately. This guy is too strong, and he kills without hesitation. His combat experience far exceeds ours. Even if it's three against one, we have no chance of winning."
"I guess you all think the same way. Becoming a hunter is important, but the most important thing now is to stay alive. Let's retreat for now," he said, following closely.
So the three of them fled in different directions.
"Very clever choice. I'll give you ten seconds as a reward. One, two, ... ten." Hisoka counted calmly.
"Time's up. Who should I play with first?" Hisoka's gaze shifted between the three people.
Leorio suddenly ran back and firmly said, "I can't do it. My self-control isn't at the point where I can endure this kind of humiliation." As he spoke, he charged towards Hisoka.
"Hmm, not a bad look in your eyes," Hisoka commented, then suddenly disappeared, only to reappear behind Leorio the next second. Just as he was about to strike Leorio on the back of the head, a fishing hook suddenly flew in and hit him in the face.
" Gon!" Leorio shouted.
After being hit in the face by the fishing hook, Hisoka turned to look at Gon: "Little brother, not bad. Your weapon is really interesting, can I take a look?"
"Your opponent is me!" Leorio threw a punch at Hisoka.
"Leorio, be careful!" Chi suddenly screamed, but it was already too late. Her pink dress looked unusually out of place in this tense atmosphere.
Leorio's fist had not yet hit the target, but he was quickly struck by Hisoka with a left fist. There was a "thud," and Leorio was sent flying, falling to the ground. His glasses flew off and he sank into the mire of the wetland.
