After this, Fang Zheng and Katima went through their second test, which was a cabin at the end of the road, where they met a tour guide couple who were being attacked by some kind of monster... well, at least that's what it seemed like.
But Fang Zheng could tell at a glance that the couple acting as tour guides and the monsters that attacked them were actually the same thing. So after that, this magical beast named Fierce Fox, who could transform at will, took them to a place that looked like a restaurant.
It was not until this time that Fang Zheng learned from the other party what the test he was going to take was about.
"Hunter test... uh, it can't be that thing..."
Sitting in the elevator, Fang Zheng frowned slightly as he looked at the rapidly flashing numbers in front of him. To be honest, this world has monsters, modern civilization, and even super powers... Well, if this is this world, then it is normal.
"Lord Kasugano, do you know what this is? A hunter...?"
"Well, I know a little bit. Although he is a hunter, he is different from the hunters you imagine who are responsible for hunting. You can think of him as a kind of mercenary."
Hearing Katima's question, Fang Zheng gave her a brief introduction, and Katima nodded.
"I see……"
“Ding Dong.”
At this moment, the elevator slowly stopped, and then the door opened. Then, a huge, empty underground tunnel appeared in front of the two. In this tunnel, there were hundreds of people of different sizes and ages standing. It was obvious that, if nothing was wrong, these guys should also be participants in the hunter test.
The arrival of Fang Zheng and Katima naturally attracted the attention of others. Fang Zheng was naturally handsome and attracted a lot of attention when he walked on the street. Katima was also a beautiful girl. As the princess of Eldia, she had a special royal temperament. In addition, unlike ordinary people, Katima was wearing black armor, which naturally attracted more attention.
Fang Zheng soon spotted a person in the crowd who was wearing a clown costume and had teardrop-like patterns painted on his face... Well, after seeing this person, Fang Zheng was sure that he had come to the right place.
It really is the world of hunters...
To be honest, Fang Zheng was somewhat surprised when he confirmed this, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was reasonable.
After all, although it is also a passionate and orthodox boys' comic, the worldview of "Hunter" is actually not very "politically correct".
Because in this world, as long as you meet certain conditions, you can kill people at will, and most people regard it as the norm in life. Killing and being killed are commonplace in this world.
Not only that, even the protagonist of "Hunter", Xiaojie, is actually not "politically correct".
According to the JUMP series of mainstream youth comics, the protagonists are always very disgusted and disgusted with the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, and naturally do not like those who kill innocent people. But Xiaojie is different. He does not have the same ideas as other hot-blooded youth comics. For him, the most important thing is his friends, and the most important thing is to find his father. Other people... die.
Even if he saw others being killed in front of him, he would hardly explode with indignation like other protagonists of hot-blooded youth comics.
It could be said that this world was indeed suitable for trials and tests... moreover, the people here were also suitable to be valued by that guy as thugs.
After all, although this world maintains certain rules, when it comes to the concept of good and evil... it's just so-so.
"Lord Kasugano, although it's a test, I don't see many strong people here?"
Reaching out her hand to press the holy sword, Katima looked around, but to her disappointment, she didn't seem to find any particularly powerful people among these people.
"Haha, this is how different the power systems are. And the most important thing in this world is not the power itself, but the will."
Fang Zheng pointed to his chest. In fact, after he confirmed that the test world the other party had was the Hunter World, Fang Zheng understood the guy's process. Indeed, if a general boss wanted to find a subordinate, he would definitely set up many tests and then let the strongest one pass.
But as a clan of order, they do not need this kind of "power-type subordinates" because as a clan of order, they have plenty of ways to give those people powerful powers.
The most typical example of Fang Zheng's subordinates is Nanami Chiaki. She was originally just a "super high school-level game player". Although she was very good at playing games, she didn't have any superpowers or anything like that. However, she was very determined and had good morals, so Fang Zheng gave Nanami Chiaki the hard light armor - if nothing else, this thing was enough for Nanami Chiaki to walk sideways in her own world.
Therefore, strength is not important to the Order Clan, because no matter how strong you are, you can never be a match for the God of Creation. What is important is the character and morality of that person. Of course, because everyone in the Order Clan has different ideas, their standards for selecting talents are also different.
There is someone who likes me like the Goddess of Order... never mind that.
There are also orthodox ones like the Goddess of the Sky.
At the moment, the Order Clan obviously prefers to find more brutal and dangerous guys to be their subordinates.
"Anyway, let's go over there first."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng walked forward.
The crowd in front of them certainly had no intention of letting Fang Zheng and the others go. They glared at the two men fiercely, just like a group of wild wolves trying to show their momentum and deterrence to alien species.
But unfortunately, this has no effect when their opponent is a giant dragon.
As Fang Zheng gradually moved forward, the people in front of him also felt a huge pressure. The fear that seemed to have put their lives at risk forced them to instinctively lower their heads and get out of the way.
"Hey, you guys...are so useless!"
Seeing the people in front of them give way one by one, the people behind them naturally showed disdainful expressions. Many of them were not participating in the hunter test for the first time, and some were even very strong, but they failed to pass simply because of bad luck. Of course, they would not tolerate themselves retreating in front of such a young boy!
Absolutely not!
Fang Zheng didn't care about the opinions of the people around him. He just put his hands in his pockets and walked forward silently. Katima followed him quietly like a guard.
And the people in front of him would go from being angry at first, to solemn, to terrified... and then give way.
However, there are always people who don't believe in evil.
Never get out of the way!
The sturdy man clenched his fists, stared at Fang Zheng who was slowly walking towards him, and gritted his teeth.
No matter what tricks you use, I will let you know that I will not give up so easily! If you retreat here, then what is the point of being a hunter!
Of course, Fang Zheng had no idea what the man was thinking. He just walked forward step by step, just walking, as if there was no one in front of him blocking him. He was just walking.
“Da…da…da…”
However, in the man's ears, he seemed to feel that the whole world had become extremely dim. The underground tunnel, which was originally dimly lit, now seemed to be filtered through a layer of black curtain. He could not even see the faces of other people around him. Not only that, it seemed that the sounds around him had become faint, and only the sound of footsteps echoed in his ears.
“Da…da…da…”
It was just the sound of shoes hitting the stone slabs, but for some reason it seemed to blend in with the sound of the heartbeat. At first he thought it was just an illusion, but later, the man found that his heart seemed to have changed - it was as if the footsteps were beating his heartbeat.
This, what is going on?
The man looked up in surprise, but at this moment, he found that everything in front of him had changed. The originally dark and dim underground tunnel seemed to have turned into the internal organs of some animal. The pillars above turned into sharp ribs. The entire ground was shaking, like the esophagus of a living animal. Not only that...
Me, my clothes?!
Originally, the man was wearing just an ordinary martial arts uniform, but when he looked down, he was horrified to find that the clothes he was wearing had turned into a bloody mess, like a strange thing like human skin!
Then, as if it had sensed the man's gaze, the "skin" on its chest slowly opened up, and then, earthworm-like tentacles stretched out from it, with huge eyes on top of them, staring at him like that...
“Aa ...
The heart-wrenching screams broke the silence in the tunnel. Everyone turned around in surprise and saw a burly man desperately tearing his body apart. His eyes were round, and his ten fingers were firmly stabbed into his body, tearing his flesh and blood desperately.
"Hey! What are you doing?!"
Seeing the man tearing his body apart like crazy, the others hurriedly moved away from him, staring at this suddenly crazy guy anxiously. However, the man tore his flesh piece by piece, then fell to the ground in pain, and breathed his last.
“…”
For a moment, the entire tunnel was in dead silence, and everyone looked at each other, wondering what was going on. But Fang Zheng didn't even look over here, he just walked past the man's body and walked straight to the front of the crowd.
However, this time no one dared to stop him.
“Ding-ling-ling-ling——!!!”
At this moment, suddenly, a shrill ring rang. Everyone looked up and found that a man in a suit and a mustache had appeared in front of them.
He opened his eyes, stared at the people in front of him, and then said:
"The registration time is over and the hunter test officially begins."
