Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 182 Kerry City in 1984

Cree, 1984.

A burly man, accompanied by a black-haired boy, walked out of the airship airport.

"That's the Sky Arena?" The boy looked at the tall tower in the distance, which would be his training ground from now on.

Seeing the changes in Kree City, which had changed drastically since then, Silva Zoldyck had witnessed them all.

He had once come to Kree City for a certain mission, and it was there that he finally met that "monster".

After returning home, he told his father about the situation.

Finally, the Zoldyck family had another mission they couldn't just accept.

The Zoldyck family can't just accept any job; it doesn't mean they won't take on any, but there must be a sufficiently high reward before they'll choose to do so.

Is he even stronger now?

The boy next to Silva Zoldyck is Illumi Zoldyck, who is about nine years old and his eldest son.

He had already mastered the family's assassination techniques, and the reason for bringing him to Kerry City was to allow him to proceed with the next stage of training.

It is also for the purpose of mastering Nen.

Silva Zoldyck did not proactively train Illumi to awaken his Nen.

Since he spent some time in the Sky Arena, he already has a set of training standards for the next generation.

The requirement for learning has been changed to reaching level 200 in the Sky Arena.

Seeing the changes in Kree City, Silva Zoldyck could sense Lucci's terrifying nature, not just in terms of strength.

The Sky Arena was once part of a modern city with towering buildings everywhere, but it has changed a lot since then.

The first thing is that there is more vegetation, and the whole city is a forest city.

The Zoldyck family has been deliberately gathering information about Kree City and Sky Arena.

The Sky Arena's past prosperity led to a surge in Nen users, attracting the attention of the five great nations and other powerful forces.

Some chose to suppress, while others chose to unite; they used quite a few underhanded tactics in Kerry.

They almost fought a small-scale local war, but in the end, Kerri became a country within a country in the Republic of Batokia.

A true nation of martial arts, a nation of combat.

This has shown all the countries and powers in the world just how terrifying the number of Nen users can become if it increases.

It also shows just how terrifying those martial arts masters who have mastered Nen are.

Ordinary high-tech weapons cannot even harm them.

That conflict demonstrated to the world the power of Nen users, showing them just how strong they could be.

Even Silva Zoldyck knew that some high-ranking politicians from the five major powers had even considered using weapons of war to directly destroy Kree.

But in the end, it was dropped for unknown reasons.

These changes also prompted changes in the Hunter Association.

The Hunter Association used to have a good status, but in the eyes of the five great nations, it was more like a subordinate henchman force. Now, its status has improved a lot, and it is no longer something that can be ordered around.

As an assassin, Silva Zoldyck naturally wouldn't know the key to this, but it was all because of a few seeds.

The emergence of special seeds cultivated and improved by Nian was the reason that changed the attitude of the five great nations.

This showed them the potential of Nian, but of course, the necessary restrictions were still in place.

As for the entire population learning to recite it, that's completely impossible.

"Let's go." Silva led Illumi directly to the Sky Arena by bus.

The bus had only been running for a short time when it suddenly stopped.

"What's going on?" There were many foreign tourists on the bus who had come to Kerry City.

Silva and Illumi were also confused about what had happened.

Looking ahead at the road, a blue spatial rift appeared.

"The secret realm has reappeared! It seems we'll have to wait a while longer." There seemed to be someone in the car who knew the reason.

Upon hearing this, someone immediately asked, "What exactly happened?"

Of course, there was also an unusual fear.

"I'm not entirely sure how to explain this either. The blue spatial rift is the entrance to a secret realm, where there are terrifying monsters. But as long as you kill these monsters, you can get rewards."

"These things have only appeared recently."

"Now let's wait for the Adventurers' Guild to handle it."

Many people still don't quite understand, but they do grasp a few things.

Someone asked, "Won't the monsters inside escape?"

"Yes, if no one goes in to solve it, the entrance to the secret realm will turn red, and the monsters inside will come out."

The person who said this clearly knew that such a thing had happened.

Silva had already begun to concentrate. In his eyes, the entrance to the secret realm was a place where immense spiritual energy was gathered. He was naturally aware of the existence of secret realms and demonic realms.

But what was happening before his eyes was clearly different from what he knew.

At the entrance to the secret realm, some people were curious and wanted to get closer.

But an invisible barrier blocked them, preventing them from getting close, and they had no idea what was going on.

In Silva's eyes, it was another force of thought that appeared to obstruct him, and it appeared out of thin air, with no traceable source.

About six or seven minutes later, several figures leaped from a distance, passing through the invisible barrier and entering the "secret realm".

Silva counted; a total of eight people had entered.

Those who arrived later were blocked by the power of the secret realm entrance, and regret appeared on their faces.

Although it is very amazing.

But Silva had a gut feeling that Lucci was definitely involved in this matter.

He had witnessed the changes at Sky Arena before, and now even Kree City was starting to become "magical".

About two hours later, the eight people who had entered came out, carrying with them a lot of "spoils of war".

Silva saw that there were minerals, remains of some creatures, and some flowers and plants among them.

And each of them was injured.

As soon as they emerged, the entrance to the secret realm, which resembled a spatial rift, slowly dissipated into particles of light.

"Father, is this the power of Nen?" Illumi asked softly.

He knew about the power called Nian, and seeing the miraculous scene before him, he naturally asked out of curiosity.

Can the power of thought achieve this?

This change must have come from Lucky Phoenix.

Unlike martial arts masters like Netero, Lucci's use of Nen is not simply about strength, but also encompasses many other aspects.

It seems there's still a lot to learn this time.

Silva Zoldyck wasn't in a hurry; he had plenty of time to learn about these things.
