“I win!”

Senju Hashirama once again threw away the cards in his hand and looked at Izawa Sugi and Men Qi proudly.

Ize Shan suffered a critical blow in life, and Men Qi was also full of disbelief.

"Why? I clearly calculated it!!"

Kurapika smiled but said nothing.

Hashirama Senju was in great luck today, with good cards falling into his hand one after another. Kurapika was smart and agile, and it seemed like an easy win for him when he was in a favorable situation. He and Hashirama Senju cooperated with each other and knocked out Izawa Sugi and Menqi easily like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Ize Shan and Men Qi seemed to be kissed by the goddess of bad luck. Not only did they have a bad hand, but they also always had problems coordinating.

Ize Shan sighed: "No more fighting."

When Hashirama Senju is lucky, it is usually when he is about to be unlucky.

Izawa Sugi always felt that Hashirama Senju would have a hard time in the third exam.

Time passed quickly, and soon the airship arrived at the venue of the third exam.

The venue is a research institute located deep in the mountains. The owner of the institute is naturally Kirshtalia.

Seeing the airship landing with a batch of leeks, oh no, it was the participants of the experiment, Kirshtalia smiled warmly.

"Welcome to the Chaldea Research Institute."

Although Kirshtalia is Kurapika's twin brother, he looks more mature and stable than Kurapika. He wears a white suit and has long golden hair tied behind his head. He looks as elegant as if he just came out of a banquet hall.

"I am Kirshtalia, the examiner for the third exam. Now I will explain the exam rules."

Kirshtalia said in a gentle tone: "The test will last for five days, and the test content is to find out the truth about the destruction of Tate Town."

"Everyone follow me."

After entering the gate of Chaldea Research Institute, led by Kirshtalia, the group came to a very spacious conference room. There was a floating screen hanging above the conference room, and a three-dimensional town pattern was displayed on the screen.

"About 30 years ago, residents of Tate Town died mysteriously overnight. After receiving a request for an investigation from the relevant department, the association sent two hunters to investigate."

A lot of data appeared on the left side of the screen.

"But they never returned and contact was lost. The town was then shrouded in a black fog. About half a month later, the fog dissipated, and at the same time, the bodies of the town's residents disappeared."

Kirshtalia pointed to the town map and said, "The association has developed new technology. We will send you fifteen candidates to five days before the incident happened thirty years ago. You must try your best to find out the truth within five days."

As soon as Kirshtalia finished speaking, a candidate couldn't help but ask, "Wait, go back to 30 years ago? Is that what I understand? Can you send people back there?"

Kirshtalia's expression became serious. "That's what I'm going to say next."

"Time is a very mysterious realm. When we send you there, two situations will occur. First, for candidates with super strength, only their thoughts, will, consciousness and other information will reach the past, and your bodies will remain in the present. Second, those with weak strength can take their bodies with them."

After hearing this, people like Chrollo who were thinking immediately understood what Kirshtalia meant.

In other words, the association can only send the consciousness of those with Nen ability over, but ordinary people with low strength can send their bodies over as well.

Kirshtalia raised her finger. "People with bodies are extra people in that era. The locals will be wary and cautious of you, and you need to find a way to integrate into the local community. People with past consciousness can directly become people with similar personalities to you who will die in the future. You have lost your fighting ability, but you have the advantage of being at home and can use the social background and power of your body itself."

"This is the first risk. The second risk is that if someone dies during the investigation, the person who traveled through the past physically will die in the past at the same time; the person whose consciousness traveled through the past will immediately return to reality."

Hearing this, Ilmui frowned immediately and looked at Alluga suddenly.

Is this what Alluka relies on? To compete with him for the control of Killua in the third examination room? But if Killua died in the past, he is really dead!

Killua can’t continue to take the exam!

Kirshtalia mentioned a third risk: "Third, people who travel physically to the past will have memories of the future, but people who travel mentally to the past will forget everything."

"If you cannot recall within five days, your consciousness will be lost in the past, and you will never be able to return to the future. You will also be at risk of death."

Everyone was silent, which meant that if you failed this test, you would die! !

Kirshtalia said cheerfully, "Well, you still have an hour to prepare, so it's not too late to quit now~"

After saying this, Kirshtalia took a step back and stood by the door, looking at everyone with a smile.

Izawa Sugi walked over and chatted with Kirshtalia in Elf language.

Izawa Sugi: "Your spirit transfer injury is too severe. Even if your strength is a little stronger, you can't even get through it with your body?"

Kirshtalia kept smiling and complained, "There's not enough energy. There's nothing we can do. Chaldea originally had aerospace energy sources such as nuclear energy and hydrogen energy, but here we have only developed satellite communications, not yet the level of aerospace."

The hunters are all focused on studying telekinesis, and the development of science and technology has lagged behind.

"Forget anti-radar stealth fighters. Even air transport is still at the level of airships. What else can I do?"

Kirshtalia sighed, "We have only achieved this much with the help of the Queen's magic to absorb the power of the demon spirits, and the association's research on the precious talismans. We can't transfer time thousands of years like Chaldea, so thirty to fifty years is good enough for now."

Ize Shan asked again: "What's the matter with amnesia?"

Kirshtalia replied: "There are too many technical problems. People with Nen ability and some who are about to start Nen are in an unstable state, and the information transmitted is not complete, so..."

Ize Shan said with a look of disgust: "If your teacher knew that this was your level, he would be so angry that he would die."

Kirshtalia didn't mind. "I'm reconstructing magic in another world. Take your time."

Izawa Shan looked at the candidates and asked Kirshtalia, "If the investigation fails, will everything be ruined?"

Ize Sugi is somewhat new, will he be finished too?

"Eh? Have you forgotten? You are not a human, you are a heroic spirit!"

This is why Kirshtalia joined immediately after hearing that Izawa Sugi was coming to take the exam.

There are always opportunities to test Nen users, but the chance to test Heroic Spirits is one in a million!

"They will be affected, but you won't. Just find a protector when you get there."

Kirshtalia shrugged. "As for the others, yes, if they get lost in the past, or are killed by people from the past, they will die. I made it very clear that everything is their own choice."

Izawa Sugi rolled his eyes. He was just about to find Hashirama Senju to discuss how to quickly merge thirty years ago, when suddenly an extremely oppressive telekinesis spread out.

Izawa Sugino looked over subconsciously and saw a young man with a spiked haircut taking off the disguise on his face, transforming into a young man with long black hair.

Illumi Zoldyker looked down at the shaking Killua and said, "I told you, no, Aki, this exam is too dangerous, you should quit."

Killua was overwhelmed by fear.

But fortunately, he already knew in advance that Ilmi was among the candidates, and was prepared for Ilmi's appearance. Even though he was suddenly overwhelmed by Ilmi's murderous aura, he could still stand and even had time to think.

"...I refuse."

Killua trembled and said, "I want to take the exam."

Ilmi was a little disappointed: "Aqi, your family has taught you to avoid danger immediately. This exam is more difficult than before. Be obedient."

When he said the words "obey me", Illumi used telekinesis directly.

Killua only felt darkness before his eyes, and the pervasive murderous intent permeated his whole body, as if he would be killed by his eldest brother in the next second.

"...That won't do!"

A lively and clear voice sounded, and Alluka stood in front of Killua with her hands on her waist.

Alluka ignored Illumi's murderous intent and looked angry.

"Kurt is your brother too, right? You only let Killua withdraw, but let Kurt stay. That's too much!"

Ilmi's murderous intent became even stronger.

If he was still reserved when dealing with Killua just now, then when facing Alluka, he really had murderous intentions.

Alluka tilted her head: "Do you really want Killua to quit? He obviously doesn't want to quit."

At this point, he lowered his voice, and his expression became strange, "Killua doesn't want to withdraw. If you force him to leave, it will not comply with the exam rules."

What he meant was that what Ilmi did was not in accordance with the rules of family warfare.

Alluka and Silva agreed to compete for Killua in the Hunter Exam, but Illumi directly forced Killua to withdraw from the exam.

"People who don't follow the rules will be punished, and the examiner is there."

If Illumi doesn't follow the rules of the family war, then Alluka will also invite Kurapika and Kirshtalia to help, and these two people can be considered his brothers~

Ilmi's long black hair moved automatically without wind, as if an evil spirit had descended.

His dark eyes opened like a ghost from hell. He stared at Killua and said word by word: "Aki, tell me, you voluntarily withdraw from the exam."

Killua's whole body trembled, an invisible force controlled his body, he seemed to have become a puppet controlled by his elder brother.

"If Killua quits, his brother Kurt will also leave, right?"

Alluka's voice brought Killua back to his senses again.

From Killua's perspective, Alluka never looked at him from beginning to end. The girl smiled and looked at Kurt who was standing not far behind her eldest brother.

Kurt remained the same, with his head slightly lowered and remaining silent, like an exquisite puppet.

In an instant, an indescribable anger surged in my heart.

Kurt lied to him, but is it really Kurt's fault?

He himself was speechless when facing his elder brother. Why would Kurt resist his elder brother and stand on his side?

In fact, if Kurt hadn't leaked the information, he would have had no idea that his elder brother Ilmi was also among the candidates, and he wouldn't have been mentally prepared at all!

The words of Hashirama Senju echoed faintly: You are the older brother, you should set another example for your younger brothers.

——He doesn’t want to be a person like his elder brother, he doesn’t want to be a puppet like Kurt.

Xiaojie's voice echoed in my ears: There comes a time when we can no longer retreat.

——Yes, he has already run away from home. He wants to make a change. If he retreats, he will keep retreating.

“I…” Killua’s voice was dry and hoarse, “I refuse.”

These words were so weighty that the air seemed to freeze as soon as they were spoken.

Killua seemed to have made a breakthrough, and an invisible force began to surge.

"I refuse! I want to continue taking the exam!"
