Chapter 48: Dorok City! The Seven Wonders of the World! (4/5, Requesting Data)

The Six Continents, as the name implies, consist of six landmasses.

On these six continents lie many nations, led by five major powers that formed an alliance known as 【V5】.

The Begroce United Nations is one of them.

Although the continent this nation occupies is the smallest of the six.

The other continents are basically twice its size, or even three times as large.

However, the Begroce United Nations occupies almost the entire continent, so its actual national area is not much smaller than that of the V5 nations.

At the same time, although this continent is small in area, it boasts many scenic spots famous across all six continents.

Such as Dorok City.

Dorok City is a rather special city; the reason it developed to this scale relies entirely on the adjacent Dorok Ruins.

It is said that Dorok City was not originally called this name; it was changed to this name later.

Because everyone who comes to this city is basically here for the adjacent Dorok Ruins.

Even to better match the style of the ruins, many ancient ruins within the city have not been demolished.

So people can see scenes with distinct styles here.

One side is an ancient old site, while just across the street stands modern-style skyscrapers; this cross-era impact is very strong.

The Dorok Ruins are also an undeveloped ruin, or rather, a ruin that has not been fully developed.

The ruins are divided into inner and outer parts; the outer landscape is beautiful and contains many historically accumulated sites, so many tourists come to sightsee.

The interior is sealed off because a large number of Death Thoughts exist there; even Nen users find it difficult to enter.

In fact, many ruins on the Six Continents are in this state, divided into safe zones and unsafe zones.

Recently, someone reviewed history and discovered that inside the Dorok Ruins there is a very high probability of the existence of 【Liquid Titanium Ore】, one of the 【Seven Wonders of the World】.

The 【Seven Wonders of the World】 are seven extremely beautiful items in Hunter x Hunter; because they are rare and extraordinarily gorgeous.

They are thus called the 【Seven Wonders of the World】.

Any single one of them brought out would be a treasure of immense value, fought over by countless people.

It is rumored that the Dorok Ruins were originally a small kingdom, and the 【Liquid Titanium Ore】 was inlaid on the crown worn by the king.

Thus, after this news spread, the flow of people in Dorok City surged several times over.

However, that was already last month; many people hit a wall against the Death Thoughts and left dejectedly.

Now, Dorok City has returned to its usual flow of people, with mostly just tourists staying here.

On the bustling roadside,

Luo Ge held a newspaper, glanced through it briefly, and immediately understood the current situation in Dorok City.

It was about the same as the intelligence Zhu Di had collected.

Beside him, Machi was admiring a nearby ruin with Shizuku.

Through the ticket gate, seeing many people touring inside, yet neither of them felt there was anything worth seeing.

Shizuku held a travel brochure published by Dorok City, pointed at the crooked and scattered ruins ahead, and said softly:

"It's this one. The brochure says this ruin attracts a huge number of visitors every year; ticket revenue alone is very high."

Machi's beautiful brows furrowed slightly as she stared at the crooked and twisted ruins; she could not appreciate them at all, feeling it wasn't worth that much money.

Machi shrugged helplessly and said, "If money were really that easy to earn."

"Then I would set up countless crooked pillars and collect a huge pile of ticket fees every day."

"Hmm... living a life where I count money endlessly every day."

Machi said this in a joking tone.

In fact, she no longer craves money as much as before; she is just a bit envious seeing how easily money can be made.

First, because she does not lack money much nowadays.

Although the Elara Family is not a Dahei Gang, the profits they created are not low; if she wanted, she could take a large sum of money.

Second, she has found something far more precious than money—family.

Luo Ge and Shizuku are her family.

Hmm... Zhu Di counts as half.

"We should go now." Luo Ge's voice came from beside, bringing the dazed Machi back to her senses.

The purpose of their trip was not for some ruins, nor for any ancient site, but for that person.

Batra Hotel.

This is a chain of hotels opened by the famous billionaire Batra, distributed across all six continents.

It is said that to judge whether a city is prosperous, one only needs to see if that city has a Batra Hotel.

Dorok City is relatively famous, so naturally it also has a Batra Hotel; those who stay inside are tourists who lack no money or hold high status.

According to the intelligence Zhu Di collected, Biscuit is currently residing in the Batra Hotel.

The moment the three stepped into the hotel, they witnessed what Jin Bihuihuang meant; the facilities in sight were all very luxurious.

The lobby was extremely spacious, facing the front desk directly, with waiting halls on the left and right; space utilization was very low, but it made people feel very comfortable.

The ceiling featured magnificent and numerous chandeliers, reflecting Jin Huang warm-toned light, making people feel cheerful.

Luo Ge had thought finding someone would take some effort; after all, the hotel was so large, and finding one person was not easy.

Unexpectedly, after scanning the lobby once, he spotted the target.

In the waiting hall on the other side,

This area is usually used for guests to wait briefly while handling matters at the hotel, though guests may also rest here if they wish.

To provide better service, the waiting hall not only had comfortable sofas and tables but also offered free hot drinks twenty-four hours a day.

At the same time, there were many books and magazines for guests to pass the time.

Following Luo Ge's gaze, he saw a little girl in a wine-red Princess dress sitting on the sofa.
