Chapter 191: Anime Crossover: Pokémon - Starting from Hunter x Hunter, Chapter 98
Upon hearing this.
A thought arose in Shizuku's heart, and she immediately sensed the coordinate she had left in the villa, understanding as she said:
"Indeed, that is the case."
"I can feel the coordinate I left behind."
If she were truly inside the game world, she certainly could not sense the coordinate in the real world.
From this, it is evident that the dream game 【Greed Island】, praised by countless people,
is in truth a small island in a remote location on one of the six continents.
"Can 【Nen】 really do such a thing? What a miraculous ability."
Menchi couldn't help but sigh, while at the same time feeling even more anticipation for her own Nen ability.
Shizuku looked around, then nodded.
"However, the scenery here is quite nice. I quite like the feeling of exploring the unknown and discovering more landscapes."
Before they entered, Luo Ge had also given a general introduction to 【Greed Island】, with special emphasis on the novel things inside.
In Luo Ge's eyes, the interesting aspects of 【Greed Island】 lie in three places.
First, an extremely high-freedom game, containing countless side quests and NPCs possessing emotions just like normal people.
For those who love high-freedom games, this is undoubtedly an ultimate game.
Second, various magic cards, including 【Spell Cards】 and 【Target Cards】.
【Spell Cards】 are more commonly used, mainly providing auxiliary functions, such as 【Travel Together】 used for movement.
【Target Cards】 come in many varieties, totaling one hundred types, with stronger effects; their grade/rank ranges from low to high as H to SS, totaling ten levels.
The higher the grade of the card, the harder it is to obtain, and the more powerful its effect.
【Archangel's Breath】, which Botora wants to obtain, is the highest-grade card.
After collecting all one hundred types of Target Cards, one can clear 【Greed Island】.
However, Luo Ge did not have the leisure to collect the cards one by one.
According to the original story, many high-level cards are extremely difficult to obtain, often requiring a vast amount of time and luck to figure out.
Take the SS-grade card 【One Tsubo of the Seashore】 as an example.
Simply to trigger the quest, no fewer than fifteen people must use 【Travel Together】 to go to that city together.
If even one is missing, it cannot be triggered.
Seeing a part through a tube gives a glimpse of the whole.
Other SS-grade cards are hardly easier to obtain.
Therefore, Luo Ge brought the three women in this time for three reasons: first, simply to come in and play; second, to let Menchi train her 【Nen】 here;
and third, to see what items might be obtained here and whether any Pokémon would be encountered.
Inside G-I Island.
After seeing off Luo Ge and the other three in turn, Eida's mechanical face, which she had been pretending to wear, immediately broke, and she hurriedly sent a message to her other companions on the island.
That man has entered; they must treat this seriously. There is a chance he might bring trouble to 【Greed Island】.
At the same time, Eida did not forget to notify that "irresponsible" absentee boss — Ging.
……
Rimeiru City,
here known as the "City Under the Castle," is also the last city of 【Greed Island】.
At the end of the sprawling towns, a tall and magnificent castle suddenly stands; sunlight shines upon it, and the bricks above gleam brightly.
This castle is where the administrators of 【Greed Island】 stay, with two members here responsible for all matters, big and small.
In a certain room.
Various leftover boxed meals and snacks, scattered trash, and an ashtray full of cigarette butts all gathered in this room.
Anyone who saw this without knowing the truth might think this was a waste disposal room in some landfill.
If one had not seen it with their own eyes, no one could imagine that within that outwardly glamorous castle, there existed such a shameful room.
Bon, with an afro, a thin face, and an air of squalor radiating from head to toe, lay on the floor, still puffing away smoke from his mouth.
He was different from Ging.
Ging only appeared sloppy on the surface, whereas he was truly sloppy; this environment was no better than that of a beggar.
Bon was listlessly flipping through a popular magazine.
Since he was inside 【Greed Island】, he could not go out, so he could only learn about changes outside through this channel.
However, these current hot topics seemed to frequently mention the word "Luo Ge," as well as the "Glo Company" he founded.
Bon held a cigarette between his fingers and murmured to himself:
"The champion of the Wu Dou Assembly at the Sky Arena, I suppose his strength must not be bad."
"Tsk tsk tsk, such a person actually managed to build such a huge empire from scratch; truly impressive."
"Such an achievement can only be compared to that guy Ging, I suppose?"
Bon shook his head; if only he could be like that legendary Luo Ge.
Hmm...
By then, he could surely just lounge at home, eat whatever he wanted, and have someone specifically clean up the trash.
He also wouldn't be nagged day and night by some companion, nor forced to repeat the same work.
"I should have known better than to agree to that bastard Ging."
"He didn't mention beforehand that I'd have to stay on the island the whole time; this is clearly restricting my freedom."
"What's even more despicable is that he changed my surname just to complete the name 【Greed Island】."
The name 【Greed Island】 is composed of the abbreviated surnames of its eleven founders, but in fact, it is not such a coincidence.
Du En was not originally surnamed "Du"; the initial sound was not "D" but "W", and as a result, Jin directly changed his name.
Speaking of this, Du En suddenly stood up, raising his fist in a gesture of "indignation".
"If that bastard Jin were right in front of me, I'd make him see what I'm capable of."
No sooner had the words left his lips than a voice Du En knew all too well sounded.
"Really?"
"Then I must find some free time to go back and take a look."
Startled, Du En spun around, but saw only Li Si Te, also an administrator, holding a communication device.
On the screen was clearly Jin speaking.
"Huff." Du En sighed in relief, casually tossed his cigarette butt into the ashtray, and said helplessly to Jin, "You know you can scare people to death."
"My apologies, my apologies. Next time I'll try to appear in person behind you; that way, I can also see what you're capable of."
The corners of Jin's mouth curled slightly; the meaning in his words, both spoken and implied, was that he had remembered this incident.
Du En's eyelid twitched; he jerked his chin toward Li Si Te behind him.
He wanted Li Si Te to put away the communication device.
Who would have thought Li Si Te simply pretended not to see, closing his eyes as if resting.
Li Si Te was a handsome man with short golden hair, his overall appearance leaning toward that of a child.
He could least tolerate Du En's decadent appearance and the mess he made of the room.
If not for regular cleaning, this room would soon be filled with trash.
It was just the right opportunity to let Jin give him a good talking-to.
Seeing this, Du En pouted, sat cross-legged, scratched his bird's-nest hair, and asked with an air of resignation:
"So why did you specifically pay attention to this place today? You can't be this idle."
"Actually, Yida passed a message to me and the other administrators."
"Hey, hey, hey, why did you all receive a message, but I didn't? I'm an administrator too, you know."
Du En's half-lidded eyes, previously listless, suddenly widened, like a child whose companions all received candy while he got none.
Bang!
Ignoring Du En, who was clutching his head and feigning pain, Li Si Te slowly withdrew his hand and said helplessly:
"Didn't you think about why you didn't receive it?"
"Isn't it because you spend all day in this room killing time, while I work in the office?"
"You still have the nerve to ask why."
"Ahaha, so that's how it is?"
Du En rubbed his head, forced a grin, and laughed awkwardly, trying to let the matter drop.
He then turned the question to Jin.
"So what was that message, that even you had to be notified and take it seriously?"
He was just a bit lazy and didn't want to do many things, but that didn't mean he was a fool.
He knew very well that anything important enough to catch Jin's attention could not be something simple.
"A very important person has entered."
"I will also find time to come in and meet him."
Jin glanced at the magazine beside Du En; the cover clearly featured a handsome photo of Luo Ge.
"You probably know that person too."
"His name is Luo Ge."
Green grass swayed in the gentle breeze.
Mild sunlight poured over the earth; occasionally a clear breeze blew, causing the entire expanse of green grass to bend.
Swish, swish...
Four figures flashed by, stirring up a stronger gust of wind and countless weeds.
Luo Ge had not expected that merely entering 【Greed Island】 would already cause a stir among the administrators.
At this moment, they were heading toward the nearest city.
From the starting point to the nearest city, they had to pass through a relatively wide grassland.
They did not foolishly run there; although it would not be much trouble for them, when a better method exists, there is no need for that.
Each person rode a demonic beast with a lion-like head, a ring of Mao Fa on its face, a tiger-like body, and an imposing aura.
This was one of the demonic beasts Luo Ge had obtained during his leisure time through his subordinates, named 【Liger】.
A demonic beast of roughly the same tier as the 【Griffin】.
At his level, few creatures caught his eye; he chose the 【Liger】 mainly to serve as a mount.
In times like these, it could come in handy.
The Liger had strong endurance, excelled in long-distance charges, and was not slow in speed; it was among the most suitable demonic beasts for use as a land mount.
Sitting atop the Liger, Luo Ge felt little bumping; it was unusually smooth, and the ride was very comfortable.
Bored, Luo Ge used his Nen ability today within 【Greed Island】.
"Obtained item 【Elf Egg】"
"Obtained item 【Elf Egg Incubator】"
"Obtained item 【Metal Film】"
