hunterxhunter:i Plunder Infinite Entries

"First, thank Chairman Netero," Li Ke said politely, bowing.

"By the way, young man, did you... just learn Killua's technique in an instant? And also... seem to imitate some of my techniques as well?" Netero asked curiously.

Killua immediately perked up his ears, and Gon was equally intrigued.

Killua's splitting technique was way too cool!

Unfortunately, he didn't know how to do it.

"Sort of… just some insight and mimicry," Li Ke shrugged.

[Super Copy] allowed him to become the ultimate copying Hunter.

Of course, abilities like Nen and Kekkei Genkai couldn't be copied—they could only be acquired through attribute plundering.

Overall, Li Ke was still an all-rounder.

"Alright then. I must say, you are definitely the most talented genius I've ever met, young man. You two, how about continuing the game with me? It's still a long way to the examination site," Netero said with a grin, spinning a volleyball on one finger.

"Sure! I'll do it, Grandpa!"

"Hmph, I'm in too," Gon and Killua, inspired by Li Ke's earlier performance, eagerly joined in.

Especially Killua.

After realizing Netero was toying with them, he had decisively chosen to admit defeat. But seeing Li Ke actually win sparked his fighting spirit once more!

Li Ke, meanwhile, sat on the sidelines, spectating.

...

As the sun rose, both Gon and Killua had been beaten so badly they passed out, snoring away.

But Netero seemed like he didn't even need sleep.

"What an interesting night, young man. Li Ke, I am really looking forward to your performance in this exam. I'll be waiting for you to join the association," Netero said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, Chairman," Li Ke replied with a smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we've arrived at our destination," a broadcast sounded from the airship.

The ship then slowly descended onto a towering, cloud-piercing spire.

All the examinees were awakened and disembarked.

Li Ke and his group followed suit.

Bean announced the situation: this was the top of the Trap Tower, the starting point of the third phase of the exam.

The task was simple—reach the ground alive within 72 hours.

After the explanation, Bean and the Chairman left in the airship.

"How do we get down from here? Could it be…"

"Look over there! That guy!"

"Is he seriously climbing down?"

...

The crowd stirred in commotion.

A man was already climbing down!

A rock-climbing expert!

"A bunch of fools! For a pro climber like me, this level is a breeze. Looks like I'll be the first to clear this exam!" the muscular man said excitedly.

Even a near-vertical cliff was no trouble for him.

Others seemed eager to follow suit but hesitated due to their lack of climbing skill.

Before anyone could decide, they heard terrified screams from below.

"Help! Help me!"

The climber screamed in fear as monstrous creatures with huge wings and gaping jaws appeared behind him.

These creatures had human-like heads and limbs but looked horrifying.

They swooped down, grabbing the climber, biting into him, and tearing him apart midair. Blood and intestines rained down.

What a gruesome sight.

Swoosh, swoosh!

Two dining knives suddenly shot down from above, piercing two creatures' heads with precision.

The monsters screamed in agony before plummeting.

[Ding! Congratulations on killing the beast Human-Faced Owl. Random attribute plundering in progress...]

[Ding! Acquired Omnivore (Blue), automatically crushed.]

[Ding! Congratulations on killing another...]

[Ding! Acquired Sharp Teeth (Blue), automatically crushed.]

...

Li Ke glanced at the remaining flying creatures.

Name: Human-Faced Owl.

Attributes: Omnivore (Blue), Sharp Teeth (Blue), Irritable (Green), etc.

——

Trash creatures.

Fighting them was a waste of energy.

They only yielded useless attributes, which could barely be converted into experience points.

Li Ke immediately lost interest.

"That was… incredible!! What did he just do to kill those creatures?"

"It was like a bullet! Unbelievable!"

...

The sudden move caused the nearby examinees to tremble and instinctively distance themselves from Li Ke and his group.

Those owls were 50 meters away! Yet they were taken down effortlessly!

What a monster!

Damn it!

Many examinees dared not show their anger.

Even Killua and the others were shocked by Li Ke's sudden display of strength.

Even Hisoka, standing not far away, narrowed his eyes. His assessment of Li Ke rose again—this guy could even perform long-range attacks!

"I found it! There's a mechanism here, Brother Ke!" Gon discovered an anomaly on the platform.

Not just him—other examinees also noticed something unusual.

It turned out some slabs on the platform could flip, allowing access to the tower's interior—the intended path of the exam.

"Many people are already gone; they must have entered through the mechanism. Let's prepare to head down too!" Killua observed the surroundings.

"But these slabs only allow one person at a time. That means the five of us need five different slabs. And… there's no guarantee we'll stay together once we're inside," Kurapika said gravely.

"No worries, let's all head down. We might end up together," Li Ke said with a smile as the group chose nearby slabs.

"See you down below!"

"It's just a short separation. Everyone must pass the exam!"

"Let's do our best!!"

"Be careful!!"

...

The group made a pact and jumped.

"This might be the shortest separation ever," Li Ke thought with a smile.

He recalled that in his memory, the four of them landed in the same room since their slabs were close.

Without Tonpa to sabotage them, there was no worry about betrayal.

Everything went smoothly.

Whoosh—

The slabs flipped, and they fell.

Darkness greeted them.

Soon, their vision adjusted.

But there were no familiar voices from Gon or Killua.

Instead, several unfamiliar pairs of eyes stared at Li Ke in the dim light.

He quickly saw who they were.

Hisoka, Needlehead, Hanzo, and the little girl Ponzu.

And himself.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

What a wonderful cellmate lineup!
