MTL - Hunter’s Burial-Chapter 173 : Stone monster
Two days later, the 286th session of the hunter finally began.
Both Pam and Hisoka have just come to the examination room for the first exam. Now all the candidates who can take the hunter exam this year are gathering in a church located in the center of the city lord.
"I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting for a long time."
From the back door of the church, walked a middle-aged man, dressed in a formal suit, looking very serious.
As soon as the middle-aged man appeared, he attracted everyone's attention, and everyone understood that this person was one of the examiners of this year's hunter exam.
"The registration time for this hunter exam has officially ended."
Hearing the chief examiner's words, except for a few people including Pam, the rest of the examinees all smiled in their hearts.
"Then the hunter exam will start next."
"Then, for the first game of this year's hunter exam, all 388 candidates participated."
Pam was not surprised by the examiner's remarks, and the next step should be to announce the exam questions.
"The content of your first exam is to go in through the door behind me, and then come out from the inside. At that time, you will arrive at the exit of the second exam venue."
"I almost forgot to introduce myself. I'm the chief examiner of this exam, Cage."
"Finally, let me remind you that there are at most 100 people who can successfully reach the second test venue."
"Then, everyone, please come in!"
After the chief examiner Cage finished speaking, he stepped aside.
"I am the first, I will definitely get the hunter's license."
A candidate who was closest to De Cage rushed into the exam venue in an instant, and the rest of the candidates rushed in.
The goal is to pass the first exam!
"what……"
From the depths of the door, there was a scream, which shocked the ordinary examinees in an instant. They could easily hear it. The one who just made the scream was the first person who rushed into the examination room.
This is the first test. The content of the test is to pass the test site behind the door. From the examiner's words, you can clearly know that the number of candidates who pass the first test is at most 100 or less than 100. .
However, the examiner did not say that it was the 100 who passed the exam.
First come first served? Or is there some hidden condition?
With limited intelligence, Pam is inclined to the second.
After all the candidates basically entered the door, Hisoka said to Pam.
"Let's see who arrives at the second venue first, how about that?"
Hisoka said and walked towards the door, not waiting for Pam's answer.
Pam's expression remained unchanged, he walked into the examination room with a smile, and followed behind Hisoka.
The content of this first exam may be difficult for ordinary candidates present, but for Hisoka and Pam, it is a very simple question.
Pam also entered the examination room behind the door. After passing through a flat road, the first thing Pam encountered was a staircase that turned straight down.
"Underground?"
Pam judged in his heart.
After passing the stairs, there are four entrances in front of Pam. This seems to be a multiple choice question. It all depends on luck.
"If that's the case, then just choose one."
Pam chose the first entrance on the right. There is nothing special about this entrance, but Pam chose it as he wanted.
At Pam's speed, he walked in the passage for more than three minutes, and he came to the front of the four doors again. Now Pam is completely certain, one of the conditions for passing the first test.
Get out of the maze.
Pam looked at the four doors that reappeared in front of him, and he just smiled lightly, as if he had transformed into a ghost in the labyrinth, and disappeared in place in an instant.
After encountering the door of the labyrinth four times in a row, Pam finally met other candidates, and one of them was a little famous.
"Dongba."
Pam looked at Dongba, who was groping on the examinee who was lying on the ground. He instantly reached the back of Dongba and called out his name.
When Dongba heard someone call him, he was instantly startled. After turning his head slowly, he saw Pam standing not far behind him.
"As you who have taken the 34 Hunter Exam, you should know how to get out of here!"
As Pam said, he exuded an aura of evil thoughts, directly pressing on Dongba's body, but he turned a blind eye to the three candidates who fell near Dongba.
Shocked by the evil thoughts on Pam's body, Dongba was so frightened that he couldn't speak at all. It was not until Pam put away the evil thoughts on his body that he regained his anger.
At the moment just now, he felt as if he was about to die.
Dongba faced Pam's question, but he dared to say no.
"Know, know!"
Dongba replied tremblingly.
"Tell me, if what you said is false, then I will kill you!"
What Pam said was plain and with a smile on his face, but Dongba didn't dare to have the slightest thought, because he knew that what Pam said was true.
"No, I dare not!"
At this moment, Dongba is like a good baby.
"There is a key buried everywhere in this labyrinth. As long as you get the key and reach the exit of the labyrinth, you can open the door and leave here."
Dongba said, and handed over the key that he had just found from the man on the ground.
Dongba, who was able to participate in the 34th Hunter Exam without dying, still has a certain ability. His ability is to be wise. When he knows that he is facing an enemy that he cannot deal with, he will wisely admit defeat, even if he fails the hunter exam. It doesn't matter to him, the important thing is that he is still alive.
"Is that so?"
Pam asked Dongba, holding a bronze key from Dongba's hand.
"This is it!"
Seeing that Pam took the key, Dongba lowered his head and smiled.
"Thank you so much, you can continue!"
After Pam got the key, he instantly disappeared in place.
Dongba was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Almost died!"
Dongba sighed secretly in his heart.
More than two hours later, Pam also found the exit out of the maze.
In the past two hours, after Dongba's information, Pam intentionally collected keys, but Pam already has five keys in his hands, that is to say, Pam removes the keys he himself needs. In addition to one, he also eliminated four others.
Reduced the number of people who passed the first exam to a maximum of 96.
"This is the exit!"
Pam put the key into the keychain on the door and twisted it, and the door of the underground labyrinth, which was originally closed, was pushed open by Pam gently.
When Pam walked out, he found that the examiner, Cage, was already waiting at the door.
"It seems that I am the first person to pass the first exam."
Pam said to Cage with a chuckle.
The examiner Cage saw Pam come out of the door. He still kept a nonchalant expression, but he was a little shocked in his heart, because Pam had been in a period of more than two hours. Walking out of the underground labyrinth, he was really amazed.
"You passed the first hunter exam. Next, please wait here. After the exam is over, I will take you to the second exam room."
Just as Cage finished speaking, the closed door behind Pam opened again.
"Yo, Pam! It looks like you're down."
It was Hisoka who passed the first exam second.
After Pam nodded to Hisoka, he stepped aside, jumped to a tree and sat there.
Hisoka looked at Pam who was sitting in the tree. Hisoka, who was a little upset because he lost the game he proposed, became even more upset.
Pam didn't pay attention to Hisoka, but was judging where this place was, and because it was surrounded by mountains, Pam didn't know where it was, and could only be sure that it was already outside the city.
Time passed little by little,
It will be dark soon.
"The first exam is over, congratulations on passing the first hunter exam."
At the time, when it just arrived at six o'clock in the evening, Cage directly announced the end of the first hunter exam, and Pam also silently jumped down from the tree.
Originally, there were 388 candidates who took the first exam, but now the number of candidates who passed the first exam, including Pam, is only 63.
Next, I will take you to the venue of the second hunter exam, please follow along.
After Cage finished speaking, he turned and walked into the depths of the forest, and Pam quickly followed.
A group of three entered the depths of this forest land, night fell, and thick fog filled the air, providing an excellent hunting environment for many creatures who are good at concealment.
Here, it is still very dangerous for these ordinary people to examine, and those ordinary people now, facing the situation here, are full of emptiness in their hearts.
Although it is said that the large army is advancing together, and the examiner is leading the way, the confidence of these ordinary candidates is not very strong.
With the chief examiner leading the way, as the journey deepens, the dangers in the dark night will also be avoided. Some of the candidates who are behind in the team have already disappeared. As for life and death, they are conceited.
Anyone who takes the hunter exam is conceited.
Pam knew where the examiner Cage wanted to take them, so he could only follow stupidly. He walked briskly for more than an hour. The fog became thicker at night, and there were more dangers around. also getting deeper.
Under the guidance of the chief examiner, Cage, the group walked briskly for another two hours, and finally came to a lake.
The thick fog has dissipated, and the surrounding greenery is full of greenery. The night light from the sky scatters on the earth, illuminating the lake in front of it. It can be seen that there are huge trees standing, and there are also many boulders lying beside the trees.
"This is the location of your second test, Mingguang Moonlight Lake. As for whether you can take the second hunter test, it depends on whether you can survive tonight."
"I am here to announce that you have officially passed the first hunter exam, and your second chief examiner will come tomorrow."
"Now, please try your best to live through tonight."
After Cage finished speaking, the figure gradually disappeared into the night, regardless of the life and death of the group of candidates.
Pam and the others are now at the side of Moonlight Lake. It is past ten o'clock in the evening, and the sky is completely dark.
Aside from Pam and the other candidates who took the hunter exam, there were only lush trees and reclining trees nearby.
"Currently, there are 51 candidates left."
Pam silently counted the number of people, and then he also disappeared into the night.
Their request tonight is to live here, so it proves that there will be absolutely danger at night.
As for the danger, we will not know until the danger comes.
A group of candidates are not fools, they have already gathered together in groups of threes and fives, huddled together to get through this dangerous night.
The next day.
Pam returned to the team of hunter candidates, but Pam found that the number of candidates had been reduced to 47, which means that four people were missing last night.
Thinking of this, Pam's heart was immediately startled, because he didn't notice any task movement after he hadn't slept all night last night.
Except for the sound of insects at night, he didn't notice any movement at all.
In other words, in this deep forest, there are one or more hunters lurking.
"what is that?"
A candidate shouted in surprise, and at the same time raised his head and pointed to the sky.
Pam also followed the candidates' cry and looked up at the sky.
I saw a figure descend directly from the sky.
"Good morning everybody!"
The young man who fell from the sky was dressed as a hunter and wore a tiger fur coat.
Pam could tell that it was a real tiger fur coat.
"My name is Ebony, and I'm the chief examiner of your second hunter exam. Congratulations to you for successfully surviving in an environment with blood-singing worms last night."
After Pam listened to Ebony's words, he also thought about how the few candidates disappeared. Although Pam didn't know what kind of thing the bloodworm was, it was definitely not to be messed with.
The candidates who disappeared last night are the best proof.
Looking at the appearance of the many candidates, Ebony smiled, then directly untied a long and thick vine from a big tree, and then tied it to a heavy stone.
Pam guessed that this should be the exam item for today.
Sure enough, as expected by Pam, after seeing that Ebony tied the stone with vines, he continued.
"This is the content of your exam today."
As soon as Ebony's words fell, an impatient examinee asked impatiently.
"Ebony examiner, what is this for? If it is to tie the vines to the stone, it is too simple."
The corner of Ebony's mouth curled slightly and said.
"Of course it's not that simple, you need to use it to fish."
"Fishing?"
After Pam heard this, he couldn't help but wonder in the bottom of his heart.
"Inspector Ebony, how is this possible, how can a stone be able to catch fish?"
"that is……"
Ebony looked at the more than 40 candidates who were arguing and said directly.
"This kind of vine is a special plant in this forest. It is very tough and not easy to break. The bearing capacity should be more than one ton. If it bears a pulling force of more than one ton, it can last for an hour under tension."
Pam was at a loss, and had no idea what this had to do with the fishing exam that needed to be taken next.
"No matter how tough you are, you can't fish with stones!"
Looking at the candidates who were still noisy, Ebony was too lazy to explain. He first walked to the vicinity of Moonlight Lake, then grabbed the stone tied at the other end of the vine and threw it directly into the lake, about ten feet away from the shore. distance in meters.
"You are optimistic. Next, you are going to take his exam."
After Ebony threw the stone down, he held the vine in one hand, stood by the lake and stared at the gradually calming lake surface, turned his head to look at Pam and the others said.
Pam stood on the outside of the crowd, and Sisuo stood together, quietly looking at Ebony, thinking of the word fishing, he felt incredible, and thought to himself.
"That's a rock. Could it be possible that the fish will be hooked?"
The atmosphere at the scene also stopped after Ebony's voice fell.
About five minutes later, the calm lake suddenly stirred up a circle of ripples, followed by tumbling water splashes. At the same time, the vines that Ebony was holding in his hand instantly tensed up, as if a fish had been hooked.
"coming!"
Ebony said suddenly.
Looking at the tensed vines, there was a phrase in the minds of many examiners that MMP didn't know whether to say it or not.
"There are really fish who like to eat stones."
When Pam saw this, he also sighed in his heart.
"It's really insightful. You can actually catch a fish with a stone."
Seeing this scene, let alone many candidates, even Pam and Hisoka, the two minds, were a little stunned for a while.
If the vine fruit in Ebony's hand was not stretched, Pam would not be so surprised, because he knew that there is a kind of vine in the world that can catch fish without bait.
The vines in Ebony's hands were stretched, and he kept pulling the vines back.
The water splashed by the lake became more and more violent, and a huge black shadow over a meter long gradually floated under the water surface, as if it was swinging wildly~www.novelbuddy.com~ trying to get rid of the pulling force from the vines.
However, in front of Ebony, a mind-powered person, any struggle is meaningless. I saw the unknown creature in the lake, and was dragged to the shore by Ebony.
Then he was lifted by Ebony with one hand.
This is a very large strange fish. In terms of shape, it looks like a giant salamander, but it has no limbs. There are more than a dozen broad fins on the belly and the back of the fish.
The stone thrown by Ebony was already eaten by the strange fish.
After the strange fish came ashore and was lifted up by the ebony embankment, it still had plenty of physical strength, jumped alive, and danced in bursts of strong wind.
Ebony held the strange fish by his right hand, and when he grabbed the strange fish, he threw it on the ground and smashed it, and the whole strange fish fainted.
Then, Ebony raised his head and said to Pam and the others.
"This is the goal of your exam. Its name is called stone fish. It is a unique fish in this lake. Their food is stones."
???????? "You can start fishing. It's seven in the morning. As long as you can catch a stonefish before twelve noon, you will pass the second test even if you pass the test."
????????
