Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

"Buzz!"

Nobu was setting up the entrance to the fourth-dimensional apartment, but the bracelet he wore on his left wrist suddenly emitted a burst of intense white light without warning.

His heart tightened, and he didn't have time to turn around.

"boom!"

The calm water surface suddenly exploded, and a huge black shadow came towards him carrying waves rising into the sky.

"Bang!"

There was a loud noise, and the black shadow suddenly hit the shield, knocking Nobu "off the ground" and spinning in the air three or four meters above the water. The bright flashlight came out of his hand and fell with a "pop" Falling into the water, sinking into the bottomless black abyss.

Then there was a "bang" sound, and Nobu hit the wall hard. The sudden attack made him a little dazed.

"Click..."

The oxygen bottle on his back was deformed by the impact, and the oxygen inside was constantly leaking out.

"Hmph~!"

Nobu groaned, clasped his hands into the wall, slowly slid down, controlled his balance, and looked up to the front.

It was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

"Buzz..."

He concentrated his energy on the bracelet, and a burst of intense white light suddenly emitted, allowing him to see clearly what was on the opposite wall.

"Hoarse~!"

On the wall directly opposite, a black mimic with dots of red light all over its body was clinging to the steep and slippery wall, hissing and threatening at him.

This mimic is relatively "petite" in size, at most two meters, which is not much different from the size of humans.

"Mimicry, black."

Norbu frowned and looked at the screaming monster opposite. There was no information about black mimicry in the information Umbrella gave. So was this a high-level mimicry that already existed or was it a new type?

Ahead, the black mimic screamed and rushed towards him.

Nobu's expression condensed and he activated his ability.

"call out!"

But who would have thought that as soon as he activated his ability, the mimic sensed danger, and the tentacles on his back suddenly shot out backwards, inserted into the wall, and pulled back his body that had been thrown out.

"hoarse!"

The black mimic was hung on the wall again, hissing at Nobu with a ferocious expression.

He looked like he wanted to pounce on him and tear him apart, but he didn't dare to attack rashly.

"I sensed the danger in a split second and gave up the attack."

Norbu pressed his body against the wall, his heart solemn.

The series of actions just now proved that the mimic in front of him was acting like a human again.

"Infected person? Or a mimic that just came out of the cage?"

Nobu was guessing in his mind while drawing a circle with his right hand on the wall next to him to set up the entrance and exit of the fourth-dimensional apartment.

He planned to observe it first. If it was just this mimicry, he would still be sure to capture one alive and bring it back to the fourth-dimensional apartment for observation and research.

But if you lose, then retreat temporarily.

"rustle……"

A slight sound from above his head interrupted Norbu's thoughts. He didn't have time to raise his head and directly activated the bracelet.

"Bang!"

The moment the shield appeared, a huge tentacle suddenly slapped on the shield, knocking him out together with the shield.

"Crash..."

Under the protection of the shield, Nobu flew dozens of meters upside down against the lake surface until he hit the wall opposite the lake with a "bang". The powerful force "bang" made a large circular crater on the wall. Embed Nobu and the entire shield deeply into the wall.

"cough!"

Nobu, who was embedded in the wall, coughed, and a stream of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

The blow just now did not hit his body directly, but the shock caused by the powerful force made him feel that his internal organs had been displaced.

Nobu looked up to the opposite side with a ferocious expression. It was still pitch black and he couldn't see his fingers.

"Plop!"

Suddenly, a stone fell from the top of the head, causing a small wave on the water.

Circles of ripples rolled along the water and disappeared in front of Nobu.

But at this time, Nobu was not in the mood to pay attention to this small change.

"Is this also...mimicry?"

Norbu looked up, his lips slightly parted, as if he had seen a monster.

In fact, he did see a monster.

The picture turned to the top of his head. Under the strong light of the bracelet, huge tentacles were hanging in mid-air above his head. His line of sight followed the huge tentacles and extended upward into the darkness at the end of the visible field of vision.

Huge, monster.

At this time, he only had this impression in his mind.

Just one tentacle is as big as the mimic that attacked him just now. You can imagine how big this monster is.

Norbu could even imagine that the entire underground lair was its hotbed, with its tentacles spread across every corner of the lair.

"Wow..."

There was a sound of paddling on the lake ahead, and as the sound got closer, two mimics, one big and one small, stopped on the water in front of him.

The smaller one is naturally the black mimic, only two meters in size.

The big one is a dark blue mimic, with a size of ten meters.

"Du...du..."

Just as one person and two monsters looked at each other, the mobile phone hanging around Nobu's neck rang. Nobu lowered his head and looked at the mobile phone in the waterproof bag.

"Hoarse~!"

The moment Norbu lowered his eyes, the two monsters immediately moved and pounced on him with a roar.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, their attacks were blocked by the shield.

“Bang bang bang bang…!!”

But they didn't feel surprised at all, and continued to attack the white shield that suddenly appeared in front of them.

With their crazy attacks, Norbu could feel the strength of the shield weakening. In order to maintain the shield, he had to put more thought energy into the bracelet.

"Retreat."

Nobu drew a circle with his right hand on the wall next to him, and then the circle made a circle of ripples that spread out on the wall. Nobu's body disappeared into the wall as if it was sinking into water.

"Hoarse~!"

The two mimics neighed, and dozens of tentacles on their bodies moved quickly on the wall, and they did not stop until they dug a hole several meters deep into the wall.

"Hoarse~?"

The two mimics shook their heads at the empty hole, curious.

Immediately, they looked up at the same time, neighed, turned around and plunged into the water.

Inside the fourth-dimensional apartment...

"Bangdang..."

Norbu changed out of his tattered diving suit and pulled off the tattered oxygen bottle that was almost smashed into a can.

Open the cabinet in the apartment and take out a towel to wipe yourself clean.

He put on a decent suit, briefly arranged his hair, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, put on new glasses, finally picked up his cell phone, opened the door to the apartment, and walked out.

Outside the arch, Mo Laowu and his group were waiting, while Nitro was looking at his mobile phone, which showed [the other party is not in the service area].

Suddenly, on the wall to the right of the arch, Nobu in a suit stepped out.

"Oh, I'm back." Mo Laowu looked at Nobu, "How are you doing? Did you find anything?"

As he said that, Mo Laowu glanced at Nobu's clothes and found that his shoes were so bright that they reflected light.
