Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

While the two were talking, the elevator continued to descend and finally stopped in the A-33F area.

The A-33F area of ​​the headquarters is the weapons research and development department headed by Kipsil. Ilumi returned here to see how the telepathy weapon system is perfected. This research project is very important and related to future explorers. Can organizations harness the world’s talent?

The elevator door on 33F opened, Yilumi stepped out of the elevator, while Pride continued to stay in the elevator and headed to 40F.

Ilumi came to the main entrance of the weapons research institute. The scanning device above the door emitted a faint light and swept across his face. With a "click", the door opened automatically.

"Boss."

As soon as Ilumi walked in the corridor of the institute, four researchers in white uniforms came towards him and recognized him.

Ilumi tapped her chin as a response and walked past them towards the depths of the research institute.

"Riley, where is Kipsil?"

While walking, Ilumi suddenly spoke and asked Riley in the central control room of the headquarters.

"Dr. Kipsiler~ He is currently staying at the weapons testing site and testing new weapons from the weapons research institute."

Riley's slightly lazy voice sounded from the headset, and Ilumi even imagined her current state based on her voice, sitting in a chair, eating potato chips and operating the computer.

"From the sound of your voice, you are very lethargic."

Ilumi asked her, after all, Riley had never been out since the base was established.

"Staying at the headquarters all the time, of course I'm not energetic."

In the central control room, Riley was lying on her work chair, pouting and complaining.

Behind her, there are more than a dozen employees responsible for monitoring and maintaining the operation of the central control room.

"In that case, then you can come with me for the next operation." Yilumi heard this and said, "Just in time, there are a lot of places to go in the next operation."

"OK, no problem."

Riley ended the call with Ilumi in a lazy tone.

Yilumi, who ended the call, also happened to arrive at the weapon testing site of the weapons research and development department.

The weapons testing ground is a place where the weapons research institute specializes in testing various new weapons. There are four large combat simulation rooms dedicated to testing weapons. The space inside is very spacious and can even simulate city streets and urban areas.

"Boom boom boom..."

As soon as Ilumi walked into the weapons testing site, he heard bursts of violent bombings.

After hearing the sound, I saw in one of the large combat simulation rooms, a soldier wearing the uniform of the defense force standing on the roof of a building, holding a huge gun with a caliber like a cannon, and pointing the muzzle diagonally at the sky. .

"Bang bang bang..."

Shells were fired from the muzzle one after another. The shells emitting a faint white light scattered in the sky and randomly fell into the streets of the city, causing violent explosions and causing the collapse of a large number of houses.

"Yes, in this way, the shooting weapon system will be improved."

Kipsil stood outside the battle simulation room, observing the city streets where explosions were everywhere, and nodded with satisfaction.

"How is the development of the telekinetic weapon system going?"

Ilumi came to Kipsil, looked at the explosion in the battle simulation room, and asked him.

"Three weapon systems have been improved so far, namely shooting type, melee type, and guerrilla type."

While answering, Kipsil took a terminal from his assistant, holding the terminal in his left hand and swiping lightly on the screen with his right hand.

"Three items have been improved. How many weapon systems are there in total?"

When Ilumi heard it, he found that three weapon systems had been improved, but there seemed to be more weapon systems.

"There are a total of six weapon systems, shooting type, melee type, guerrilla type, defense type, functional type, and trap type."

"Each weapon system has multiple options, such as shooting..."

"The first category is automatic rifles that use mental energy as bullets to shoot."

"It is divided into two shooting methods. The shooting method can be a fixed ballistic shooting like an ordinary automatic rifle, or a shooting method in which the bullet trajectory is designed in advance."

"Critical moments can bring unexpected effects to users."

"The second category, sniper category."

"It is divided into three types of sniper rifles."

"The first type is the lightweight Peregrine Falcon."

"The lightweight Peregrine Falcon has fast bullet speed and good rapid-fire performance. Because of its fast bullet speed, it is easy to hit the target. However, it is relatively weak in power. It may not be lethal enough to the enhanced senior telekinesis users."

"It's a fly in the ointment."

"The second type is the standard Blue Bird that focuses on range."

"It has high bullet velocity and its power cannot be underestimated. It is the best balanced among the three sniper rifles."

"The third type is the heavyweight Suzaku."

"The heavyweight Suzaku values ​​the explosive power of a one-hit kill. Even when facing a large monster, he can easily kill it instantly with one hit."

"But because the projectile speed is very slow, it is more difficult to hit the target than the previous two. Moreover, the mental energy consumed by each shot is equivalent to the energy consumption of a thousand peregrine falcon shots or a hundred bluebird shots."

"The energy consumption is so large that those with scarce telekinesis energy in their bodies cannot use it."

"This is an explosive and powerful weapon that can only be used by those with huge psychic energy."

Kipsil paused for a moment before speaking, then gently slid his finger on the terminal and continued.

"Next, there is the third category, heavy weapons."

"The first type is what you see now, a powerful howitzer that can change the terrain."

"The second type is a rotary machine gun that uses telekinesis energy as bullets. It also has fixed trajectory and designed trajectory shooting methods."

While introducing Ilumi, Kipsil observed the weapon test in the combat simulation room where the howitzer had been replaced with a rotating machine gun.

"Each weapon system has at least three options, which are flexible and changeable. Each user can choose their favorite telekinesis weapon according to their personality and hobbies."

"I will first put the three improved weapon systems on the Explorer's organization store for membership rental and sales."

As Kipsil spoke, he operated the organization store on his personal terminal, using the authority of the director of the Explorer Organization's R\u0026D Department to put on the shelves the three weapon systems he mentioned: shooting, melee, and guerrilla.

"Very good. I need these three weapon systems and arrange them for my direct troops as soon as possible."

Ilumi ordered.

"Understood, let me do it right away."

Kipsil closed the terminal, turned to the assistant who was observing the battle simulation room, and ordered him to go down immediately to arrange the installation of weapon systems for Albert's troops.

Next, Yilumi went to the Biotechnology R\u0026D Department and the Human Life Engineering R\u0026D Department to inspect the progress of modified organisms and longevity genetic medicines.

The research on modified organisms and immortality genetic agents has reached a bottleneck, and there is only one way to break the bottleneck, which is to explore the Dark Continent.

Unknowingly, the time has reached ten o'clock in the morning.

"Riley!"

"Get ready, we're leaving."

Ilumi called Riley in the communication and was about to leave the headquarters.

"So fast?"

In the communication, Riley was a little surprised. It had only been six hours since Ilumi returned to the headquarters, and she was about to leave again without giving herself any time to rest.

…

One hour later, Pattyrus International Airport.

Wearing a black suit and a black trench coat, Ilumi stood in the terminal waiting for Riley to get her tickets from the ticket machine. There was a black suitcase next to her.

"It's ready."

A moment later, Riley Gates, who was also wearing a black suit, a black trench coat, and a pair of black gloves on her hands, strolled up to Ilumi with two tickets and handed one of the tickets to him.

The original Riley had long blond hair with a cute style.

But now, for some reason, Riley has cut her long hair into short hair with golden bangs, giving her the style of a smart and capable strong woman.

"Do you like flying on flying boats?"

Ilumi took the ticket from Riley and asked in a calm tone.

He originally wanted to take the Night Crow aircraft directly to the Republic of Pitocia, which would only take a few hours.

But if you take a flying ship, you have to change planes on the way. It takes more than two months to get from the Pegroce Federation to the Republic of Pitocia.

"It's been a long time since I've been out, so of course I need to take it easy and relax."

"Please, Big Boss."

Riley slapped her hands together in front of her chest, a cute smile on her face, and begged in a pleading tone.

"Just be happy, luckily there's nothing important right now.

Yilumi turned around with a calm expression and walked towards the boarding gate.

Riley put away her smile, dragged her black suitcase, and followed Ilumi's footsteps.

Two months later, the Republic of Pitocia.

The flying ship that Illumi and Riley took landed at an airport near the Sky Arena. The two of them walked out of the airport with the tourists who came to Pitocia, and called a taxi to go to the train station.

The train flew for several hours and finally arrived at the tourist town at the foot of Mount Kurulu.

"Chichi..."

As soon as the two people walked out of the train station, a black car stopped in front of them.

"Master."

The car window rolled down, and the driver was a young man wearing a black suit with a cold expression. He was the butler of the Beating Dike family.

"Get in the car."

Ilumi opened the car door and bent down to get in. Riley put the luggage in the trunk, walked around to the other side, opened the door and got in. After a sound of engine, the black car flew away with dust.

In a small restaurant opposite the train station, two figures were sitting by the window, looking at the place where Ilumi's car disappeared.

"Is this your twin brother? From the outside, he looks unremarkable." Hisoka supported his chin with his left hand, shrugged his eyes, and said calmly: "You can't tell he is a killer at all."

"Creak~"

After Hisoka finished speaking, Yi Ermi, who was sitting opposite, pushed away his chair and stood up, walking towards the door.

"Since he is back, I will go back first."

"Hisoka, just take a good look around here."

With that said, Ilmi pushed the door open and disappeared from Hisoka's sight in a flash.

"Alas~"

Hisoka was left sitting by the window and sighed alone. He picked up a newspaper on the table in front of him and read the report about the Sky Fighting Tower.

"A place to have fun..."

"Let's reserve one for now."

After finishing speaking, Hisoka also stood up from his seat, placed two bills on the table and left the shop.

Kukulu Mountain, beat the enemy's main entrance to the Hakka family.

"Chichi..."

The private car carrying Yilumi and Riley stopped in the open space in front of the gate. Yilumi and Riley got out of the car one after another. The butler driver opened the trunk and let Riley take out the suitcase, then drove the car and turned around. Leaving, not knowing where to go.

"Oh, it turns out to be the young master!"

At this time, a strong middle-aged man wearing security uniform walked out of the guard room, it was Jie Bu Rong.

Although his hair was still black at this time, he was already going bald.

"Jaebirong, long time no see."

Ilumi gave a rare greeting to the guard. When he saw the bald Jiebu Rong, he suddenly realized that it had been sixteen years since he came to the hunter world. Time flew by so fast.

"Is this beautiful lady a friend of the young master?" Jiebrong looked at the blond girl with bangs standing next to Ilumi and showed a kind smile, "Miss, do you want to try the Trial Gate?"

Illumi turned to look at Riley. Although she was not a combat-type telepathic user, after so many years of practice, the Gate of Underworld should be able to be pushed easily.

"This is the famous Gate of Hell." Riley raised an interested smile on her face, put her suitcase on the spot, and walked towards the trial gate. She looked up at the two faucets on both sides of the top of the gate, on the left and right of the gate. It is also connected to a thick and high wall. "It's like a city wall. It's really impressive."

"As expected of the legendary killer family."

When Gebron heard Riley's praise, he couldn't help but smile in agreement. He had also expressed similar emotions when he first saw her.

"Oh, is your friend going to open the trial door?"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from Yilumi's ear, and he glanced to his side from the corner of his eye. It was Yilumi who came from the small town at the foot of the mountain.

"Your friend, why don't you invite him to your house?"

Ilu asked with a smile.

"No, if he comes to the house, he will be in a very dangerous situation." Ilmi watched Riley stop in front of the trial door and said, "After all, he has a bad character."

"Yeah?"

Yilumi chuckled, stopped talking, and looked at Riley who was about to open the door in front of the door.

"This kind of thing is a piece of cake."

Riley raised her lips with disdain, took off her gloves, put her hand on the cold trial door, and exerted her strength.

"Boom...boom..."

The next moment, the first trial door opened easily, followed by the second, third...

"Boom!"

Finally, the constantly opening trial door stopped amid a rumble.

"There are only six paths..."

Ilumi looked at the open door of the trial, his eyes suddenly raised, and he looked at the panting Riley at the door, with obvious dissatisfaction on his face.

"Are you not satisfied with Liu Dao?" Yi Mi looked at his expression and was speechless. "I'm at this level right now."

"That slender and thin figure..." Jiebu Rong, on the other hand, looked at Riley's petite figure and opened his squinted eyes with a look of shock, "He is indeed a friend of Master Ilumi."

"Hu~hu~"

In front of the trial door, Riley was bent over, with her hands on her knees, panting.

"Boss, don't be dissatisfied."

Riley took a deep breath, straightened up and turned around, looking at Ilumi with her hands on her hips, her cheeks slightly red.

"I am a person with functional telekinesis, so my power is naturally not as great as that of Amed and Eric."

"But when it comes to killing methods, I'm ten thousand times better than them."

"Even if it means destroying a city, it only takes me one hour to do it."
