Hunter: I'm really not a necromancer

255. Conspiracy X Humanity X Threat

Chapter 255 Plot X Humanity X Threat

In the long history of mankind...

War is an enduring theme.

To plunder and to be plundered.

Birth and destruction.

Countless countries and civilizations have experienced birth and destruction in this seemingly endless cycle of war.

Then, just like things left behind after death, there are left behind such things as treasures and ruins that can drive those who come after them crazy.

It can be said that behind every treasure, there must be a once brilliant civilization.

"Monkar Expeditionary Force"

This is an invincible army that is still recorded in ancient books.

In its heyday, the purpose of this army's existence was endless plunder.

Crazy expansion of territory and crazy destruction of enemy countries.

Then he plundered countless trophies in expedition after expedition.

The goal of Bearded and his party is the spoils of Mengka's expeditionary force.

In fact, after obtaining the "treasure map", they were not optimistic that they would be able to find the trophies of the Mengka Expeditionary Force.

Because the treasure maps left by predecessors are inherently difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Even if the treasure map is real, it is usually not as accurate as "navigation". How to find the "entrance" is always a very difficult thing.

so--

The "teleportation ability" that they don't know how to activate can be said to have helped them avoid the most difficult process.

Now, the three bearded men at the entrance of the cave looked at the ruins of the underground city in the distance, feeling that "luck" was on their side.

This is also true.

The activation condition of teleportation ability is related to "thoughts after death".

Without Moyu's ability to sense the thoughts of death like a "metal detector", it would be impossible for a normal person or even a mind-killer to find the stone slab entwined with the thoughts of death.

That is to say...

It was Moyu's arrival that gave Lu Beard and his party the opportunity to truly come into contact with the treasure.

Otherwise, even if they searched the entire Aragas Mountains, they would never have thought that the way to get here was to trigger a certain teleportation switch entangled with thoughts of the afterlife.

In the end, it is very likely that you will return without success.

"Who the hell said there was something wrong with the day I picked? If it hadn't been for today, we might not have been able to come in here."

The bearded man raised his hand with excitement and pointed to the ruins of the underground city ahead.

He was still unhappy at the place where Crash Hunter was originally tested.

Now it seems……

Fortunately, he chose this day to come to Mount Aragas, otherwise he wouldn't have had the opportunity to enter the underground ruins out of nowhere.

He guessed that one of the many candidates might have accidentally triggered the switch containing the teleportation ability.

As for whether the speculation is true, it no longer matters.

Because they are already here.

"Obviously it's you who is talking..."

The man with the big back and the handsome man looked at their boss, thinking the same thing in their hearts.

They are members of the A-level Elimo Thief Group. This treasure hunt has nothing to do with the group and is their private operation.

The bearded man is the boss of their team, named Ryan, codenamed Lion.

A man with a cold temperament, handsome facial features and a very neutral appearance, named Baibo, codenamed Viper.

The man with a greasy slicked back hair and a face full of scars is named Mantis, codenamed Mantis.

"Boss, what should we do with those candidates?"

Mantis Mantis looked at the candidates who jumped out of the hole one after another.

Obviously, the candidates who were originally taking the test were also teleported in.

And at first glance, there are quite a lot of people.

"Do I still need to ask?"

A chill flashed through Viper Baibo's narrow eyes, and he said calmly: "No matter who it is, as long as it is a troublemaker, kill them as soon as possible."

"That's right."

Lion Lion calmed down his excitement a little, squinted at the candidates coming out of the many caves, and sneered: "But don't worry, there are such a group of free pathfinding stones, it will be in vain if you don't use them."

"Too……"

Viper Baibo nodded slightly.

He just wanted to get rid of all the troublemakers as soon as possible, but he also agreed with his boss's suggestion.

Lion Lion reminded: "There are a few people with telekinesis in that group of candidates. Don't be overconfident, you two. There is also the examiner. Let's make sure he is here later."

"Know."

"clear."

Viper Baibo and Mantis Mantis nodded one after another.

No matter what method is used to deal with the group of candidates below, anyway...

In the end, only the three of them can leave here alive.

"Let's sneak in first."

Lion Lion raised his fingers and fiddled with the number plate hanging on his chest, then jumped out of the hole and fell to the ground.

Viper Bybo and Mantis followed closely behind.

now.

About one hundred and fifty candidates have already come out of the cave.

Since the caves on the rock wall were distributed in all directions, the candidates coming out of the caves did not gather together.

They were scattered in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and thus formed four teams located in different directions around the underground city ruins.

And there were still candidates coming out of the hole later.

If all the candidates on Mount Alagas are teleported in, then there must be more than one hundred and fifty people in this inner space.

Because the people in the mountains of Alagas are not only those candidates who are taking the second level test, but also those candidates who failed to complete the first level test and can only return to the foot of the mountain.

Although the candidates who came out of the cave gathered together spontaneously, the atmosphere at the scene was still heavy.

The vast majority of candidates are discussing two things.

One is how they got into this place, and the other is how they left this place.

Faced with this discussion full of hostility and complaints, it was certainly impossible for Moyo to participate.

After all, he is the culprit who sent everyone here.

But it can only be said that things are unpredictable.

Who made him extremely sensitive to the aura of "thoughts after death", and then Menqi deviated from the route down the mountain in order to collect snow fruits, causing him to accidentally perceive the existence of the stone slab.

That's all.

God knows how that stone tablet entwined with the thoughts of death has the ability to "teleport", and it can also teleport in such a wide range.

Now that I think about it, the "unknown words" carved on the stone slab were probably not just decorations.

"I should have taken a photo at that time and then brought it back to Pyoen to translate..."

Moyu thought of this.

If I could get out, I don't know if the stone slab is still there.

Moyu muttered to himself while listening to the noise that sounded like a wet market around him.

"I have a proposal."

In order to interrupt this discussion that was simmering with negative emotions, Moyou spoke at every opportunity.

His words quickly attracted the attention of the candidates present.

The reason why Moyu is so valued is simply because of his amazing ability in the first test.

"What proposal?"

"Tell me."

Everyone stopped discussing and looked at Moyu.

The venue suddenly became quiet.

Facing everyone's gaze, Mo You said calmly:

"We are all unfortunately pulled to this unknown place by a 'magical force'. This is an established reality, so there is no need to dwell on it anymore. What we should do now is to find a way to leave here.

exit."

"..."

Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this, but said nothing.

Moyu continued: "Fortunately, so many of us can gather together. I believe that as long as we work together, it will not be difficult to find an exit, so..."

After saying this, Moyu slowly glanced around the crowd and said with a smile:

"I propose that the candidate with the most seniority present be the captain, and then lead us out of here with his rich experience."

"The most senior..."

After hearing Moyu's suggestion, everyone subconsciously looked at Dongba who was hiding behind like an ostrich.

To say that the person with the most seniority is Dongba, who has participated in thirty tests.

"?"

Faced with the sudden swarm of gazes, Dongba was stunned, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead unconsciously.

What's the meaning?

What does that "source of danger" want to do?

Dongbaton feels bad.

It was hidden well at first, but this guy picked it out anyway.

From this moment on, Dongba was convinced that Moyu knew his identity, so he mentioned the prerequisite of "the most senior".

This is all for yourself.

For a moment, Dongba felt like he had become prey...

But why is this guy in front of me doing this?

Could it be because one of the new people he had tricked was known to this guy?

So the reason why this guy is targeting me is to avenge someone?

In just one or two seconds, a storm rolled up in Dongba's head, and he thought of many things.

"I...can't do it."

Then, Dongba gave up his self-esteem as a man without hesitation.

Want him to be captain?

What a joke.

That's not the captain, but the cannon fodder!

"Uncle, although I don't know you, when I made the proposal, everyone looked directly at you, which shows that everyone has great confidence in you."

Moyu looked at Dongba with a smile, as if he didn't see the sweat on Dongba's face.

If I can torture Dongba to the point of mental breakdown, I wonder if I can get a reward from "Perception".

For this reason, Moyu will deliberately release some malicious aura towards Dongba.

In this way, Dongba, who is aroused by the malicious aura and has a stress reaction, will regard him as a dangerous person at any time and will always be in a "precarious" situation.

"I, I did take many tests..."

Being targeted by Moyu in this way, Dongba reluctantly showed an expression that was uglier than crying, and said with trembling lips:

"But if I lose the election, doesn't it mean that I am a piece of garbage with little ability?"

Dongba, who really doesn't want to be pushed to the forefront, is even willing to prove to everyone that he is trash.

His realization made everyone present look strange.

Moyu took a deep look at Dongba and said regretfully: "What this uncle said is not unreasonable. After all, losing the election can indeed explain some problems."

"..."

Dongba lowered his head, and the flesh on his cheeks couldn't help but tremble several times.

Hold it!

Give up!

This is how you can live longer!

Dongba kept warning himself in his heart.

Unable to push Dongba to the forefront, Moyu asked the candidates present to nominate a candidate, thus retreating behind the crowd.

A few minutes later.

Everyone quickly selected a candidate who had participated in four tests to serve as the temporary captain.

The candidate's name was Bolton. He was tall and muscular, with a muscular back and a strong back. His muscles exposed to the air looked like thick and knotted tree roots, which was very eye-catching.

Although he is not a telepathic person, his size has an oppressive aura that makes him very difficult to mess with.

After Bolton was elected as the captain, he first asked everyone about the circumstances of coming here, thus confirming that the cave passage everyone came from was a one-way road.

This most likely means that the holes in the surrounding rock walls are all dead ends.

After obtaining this basic information, Burton asked the candidates present to form a team of two, and then go to the ruins ahead to look for useful clues.

No one had any objection to Bolton's arrangement.

Soon, more than twenty teams of two people headed towards the ruins of the underground city ahead.

Moyou and Menqi were naturally in the same team, so they deliberately slowed down and fell behind.

"Master, that group of people... don't look like they are looking for an exit at all."

Menqi looked at the group of candidates in front of them who were rushing towards the ruins of the underground city.

Although the theme of the discussion just now was "Get out of here", after the discussion, Menqi was very keenly aware of the greed in the eyes of some candidates.

Human nature is like that.

"yes."

Moyu's eyes were calm and he said:

"When there are few people, they will try their best to think about how to get out of danger because of the scarce sense of security. When there are many people, the sufficient sense of security will allow them to selectively put aside unfavorable situations and instead satisfy their own desires first."

"Then there's no hope for these people."

Menqi shook his head slightly.

In the eyes of this group of people, an underground city ruin that has never seen the light of day is no different than a mountain of banknotes.

Most of the candidates who come to take the test are just doing it for money or fame.

And a hunter's license can be exchanged for more money than you can spend in seven lifetimes.

Now, there is a treasure mountain of immeasurable value in front of us, and there is no need to say how to choose.

This is the true portrayal of the vast majority of candidates present.

Moyu disagreed, but he could understand their thinking.

After all, the pass rate for the hunter test is so pitifully low. For ten consecutive years, the possibility of a newcomer getting a license is infinitely close to zero. Only those candidates who have taken multiple tests can get a license.

Most of the current candidates here are elderly people who have taken the test several times.

If they can get treasures that can be exchanged for a lot of money in the ruins of this dungeon, then why should they take the risk to take the hunter test.

"I didn't count on them in the first place."

Moyu looked at the candidates who had rushed into the underground city ruins in front, his eyes moved slightly, and then he looked up at the giant cylinder standing in the center of the underground city in the distance.

Just now, he felt some changes in the aura of thoughts of death.

If you compare the perceived "change" to a picture.

So--

It is probably an unknown object that is extending countless tentacles to various places in the underground city ruins.

"It's really no ordinary ruins..."

Moyu's eyes were slightly solemn.

at the same time.

Teams of candidates who gathered spontaneously from other directions also headed towards the underground city ruins.

Among them were the three men from the Elimo Thief Group, the knights from the Phantom Troupe, and seven or eight telekinesis users.

Everyone who comes here——

The goals are the same.

They all entered the ruins.

But they didn't know that the threat was coming quietly.

Among all the people, only Moyu could "see" the movements of the thoughts after death.

Today, a relative died of liver cancer, and he was the same age as me.

I could still see people the day before yesterday, but they were gone today.

Death is so heavy.

After coming back today, I feel extremely tired both physically and mentally.

Maybe I'm really too anxious.

I feel like I'm getting faster too.
