Chapter 197 Kuroro Is Alone

Chapter 197 "Kuroro is alone"

Xiyou was stunned again. He found that he had a new understanding of President Netero.

And he didn't even feel strange. This was what the president could do.

Worthy of being Isaac Netero.

At the same time, he looked at the tall man in front of him and felt similar emotions.

Worthy of being Bijand Netero.

Bijand raised his head and looked at the horizon outside the courtyard, staring at the clouds that were curled up or stretched, and slowly stretched out three fingers.

"Next, I want you to do only three things."

"The first thing is that "Black Whale No. 1" has been secretly built. I need the Kajin Empire to invest more in the "Dark Continent" and be fully prepared. "

"The second thing is that I will use German, Jin, Bisgi and others as pawns to negotiate with the old man and ask for the removal of my "shackles." "

"Of course, the probability of success of the second thing is not high, so I need you to complete the third thing. "

"The third thing is that I want Pariston and his "co-specialists" to start working and arrange some tasks that will take at least a year and a half to complete for the "Twelve Zodiacs", so that they can go as far as possible. "

Bi Yangde showed a sinister smile.

He once again remembered what Jin said that day, and remembered Germain's calm face.

"Are you going to get ahead of me anyway? Hehe... two brats, it doesn't matter if you get ahead of me. It's just that the winner of the "Dark Continent" is the one who can survive there to the end. "

Xiyou listened to Bi Yangde's orders, and his face changed several times.

He felt the suffocation before the storm that was about to come in the next few months.

——

Late at night on September 14, somewhere in the Kajin Empire.

Kuroro was silent for a long time in front of two thick white candles before opening his closed eyes.

A dry and discordant voice came from the shadows in the corner.

"Aren't you going to take them back? "

Ilmi with long black hair came out and stood in front of the dim and flickering candlelight, with one hand on his waist.

"They don't care where they are buried." Kuroro was referring to Ugin and Nobunaga, "Besides, there are no such conditions now."

"Yeah, that's right." Ilmi opened his eyes expressionlessly, like a dead goldfish, and answered in a mechanical tone, "After all, there is a guy who lingers. "

Ilmi was referring to Hisoka.

It had been exactly one month since the great battle on the train on August 14. The train exploded after rushing into the train station, and Xiyou took the opportunity to leave.

And Kuroro and Ilmi were held fast by Hisoka.

Hisoka did not attack them directly, but followed them from a distance, launching sneak attacks from time to time to show his presence, and then retreated after one strike, disappearing without a trace.

He seemed to treat this as a long hunting game, and enjoyed it, and was quite patient.

In order to deal with the threat of Hisoka, Kuroro and Ilmi tried many plans.

On one occasion, Ilmi even deliberately left Kuroro for more than a week, hiding in the dark, using Kuroro as bait.

But Hisoka was not fooled.

Kuroro and Ilmi had no way to completely get rid of Hisoka's tracking, nor could they catch Hisoka, so the situation remained deadlocked.

"Hisoka just wanted me to go find Xiake, Paknoda, and Machi. "Kuroro said, "Or reveal their whereabouts and then kill them."

What Hisoka did was similar to what Germain did, to cut off all of Kuroro's help.

Kuroro once said that what was important was not the "captain" or "members", but the "Phantom Troupe" as a whole.

If the "captain" died, then someone else would be the "captain", and if the "members" died, then the "members" would be supplemented. The most important thing was to ensure the survival of the "Phantom Troupe".

However, now that the seven members of the group, Finks, Kubi, Peeler, Franklin, Feitan, Ugin, and Nobunaga, have died one by one, his original idea is difficult to realize.

It's not that anyone can replace their existence. That kind of words is more like an ideal concept, not practical.

No matter how cold Kuroro's words are, he can't deceive his true feelings when things have come to this point.

He is not as cold-blooded as he imagined, and can treat them all as tools.

He built the "Phantom Troupe" by himself, and watched it gradually fall apart.

If Kuroro wasn't a man of strong will, he would have collapsed mentally by now, right?

He is now under tremendous pressure, especially when he thinks that Germain and Hisoka will probably not stop and will continue to take away everything from him and the "Phantom Troupe"...

How did things turn out to be like this?

Even Kuroro has no way to replay it.

At this time, Ilmi said: "Kuroro, I think his main target is still you. As long as I am here, this cat-and-mouse game will never end."

"It's almost time to stop here."

Kuroro paused, turned his head and looked at him: "Are you leaving?"

"Yeah." Ilmi didn't mean to beat around the bush and said directly, "Anyway, I'm Hisoka's second choice. He will come to me only if he kills you, and he will go to Germain only if he kills me."

"If it's handled well, maybe he will go to Germain first."

"In addition, I received intelligence not long ago that someone saw my brother. He has been away from home for almost half a year. My mother is very worried and asked me to bring him home."

Chrollo lowered his head, thought for a moment, and replied, "I have no ability to restrain you. It's up to you to do whatever you want."

"I will return all the price you paid." Yi Mi then said, "Since the task has not been completed, the price cannot be collected. This is a humiliation for the "beating the enemy family". "

Chrollo pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yi Mi ignored Chrollo and turned around to leave. After a while, his figure disappeared into the night.

The draft blew through the hall like a howling ghost, and the candle flame swayed until it almost broke away from the wick.

The shadows in the abandoned building were dancing like demons, and it was no longer possible to tell which one was which.

——

The next morning, Germain woke up from a good night's sleep and felt refreshed by the cool breeze.

He started the simplest daily practice of basic and advanced mind energy. After sweating profusely, he took a shower and changed his clothes before picking up the mobile phone on the bedside.

There are text messages from many people on the phone, such as the text message "Everything goes well, see you later" from Bisji.

Germain scrolled for a while and saw a text message from a person named "Pervert".

The "pervert" always sends text messages one-sidedly.

Sometimes it’s greetings, sometimes it’s selfies and landscape photos that I don’t understand, and sometimes it’s some strange insights or observations.

"Ilmi left Chrollo again. Is it a trap this time? It's really interesting and worth observing for a while."

"Chrollo's expression now is really something I never get tired of. I really want to keep it forever...Germain, who do you think will win in the end between Chrollo and me?"

As usual, Germain did not reply to Hisoka's text message, but got up and went out, and then met Xiaodi in the restaurant.

The two said hello and started eating breakfast. Not long after finishing breakfast, Jin walked in quickly.

"Are you still eating?" Jin was a little surprised, "Bisji is ready, and now we're going to start trying to teleport."

After he finished speaking, he reached out and picked up a sandwich on the dining table, stuffed it into his mouth, waved to Germain and Xiaodi, and turned around to leave.

Germain and Xiaodi tidied up and followed.

The three of them came to the depths of the castle, an empty hall specially used to establish contact with the "mansion stronghold". It was surrounded by walls and was pitch black, just like the dungeon of the castle.

Jin clicked and pressed the switch on the wall, and the fluorescent lamp came on.

He handed Xiaodi a "card" and said, "Bisji said, let you go over first and return the "Fiery Eyes" to Kurapika for disposal, and then you can come over together." "

"Okay." Xiaodi took the "card".

To enter the "Island of Greed" from the outside world, "game players" need "game consoles", "cassettes", "rings" and "mind energy" to enter the "Island of Greed" at Yida.

To leave "Greed Island", "game players" need "spell cards" and "rings", and select the "teleport location" from Elena.

Although the process is a bit cumbersome, it still requires "restrictions and oaths".

The "Administrator" has high authority, and the required conditions can be reduced. For example, if Xiaodi leaves now, he does not need a "ring", only an "Administrator special card" is enough, and there is no need to go through Elena.

The principle is similar to the "Administrator Exclusive Exclusion Card" used by Leza in the original timeline against the "Phantom Troupe" who tried to break into the "Island of Greed".

Xiaodi used the "Administrator's Exclusive Teleportation Card" and quickly disappeared on the spot.

Ten minutes passed before Xiaodi, reminded by Bisji, remembered to report that she was safe, so she sent a text message to Germain.

"I have arrived and am handing over "Fiery Eyes" to Kurapika. "

Germain replied, "Okay," then looked up and said to Kim, "Everything is going well with them."

"Okay." Jin seemed to be prepared and pulled out a camp bed from the corner, placed it on the ground, and then lay down on it carelessly, "I'll sleep for a while first. When they come, wake me up."

Then, he picked up the tattered hat, covered his face, put his hands on the back of his head, and really fell asleep on the folding bed.

Germain also felt a little bored, so instead of waiting in the room, he went outside and walked around.

As a result, half an hour later, Bisiji, Xiaodi, Menqi, Buhara and Abengani were teleported into the hall, only to see Jin sleeping there.

Germain only returned here after being reminded by Bisji. This is another story.
