Chapter 174 A Day of Fighting and Killing (Part 2)
Su Wu finally met Netero, and the black hole that spread out from beneath his feet swallowed him up.
In the blink of an eye, they fell into a pure white, square room.
The room was filled with the corpses of ants of all sizes.
The only one standing there was Netero, wearing a vest that revealed his muscles.
He may look old, but he's actually very muscular and can kill an ant with a single punch.
"Hey, President." Su Wu raised her hand and waved it, her casual demeanor making her seem unreliable.
"I heard you're doing rehabilitation training. What's the point of training with these small fry? So I've come to help you." His tone was raised, and his bright blue eyes were almost dazzling. His tone and posture revealed his eagerness.
"Hehe..." Netero chuckled twice when he saw that what had fallen out was not ants but humans.
"Oh right, when I arrived, I noticed that the Ant King seems to have already headed to the central palace of NGL." Su Wu added fuel to the fire.
It seems that NGL becoming an ant-like nation is already a foregone conclusion, unless someone intervenes to stop it. But... if someone could really be found, the person standing in front of Su Wu now wouldn't be an elderly guild leader.
The president only stepped in because nobody else was using it.
Once the ants occupy NGL, they will inevitably continue to expand their territory and capture humans in order to satisfy their food needs.
It is conceivable that time is running out for humanity.
If they continue to recover at this slow pace, by the time they recover, there might not be many humans left in the world.
Upon hearing this news, Netero merely smiled calmly, seemingly unconcerned about the fate of humanity.
"Although I'm getting old, you'd better watch out." But he adopted a defensive stance and said to Su Wu.
The next second, the two figures were no longer visible in the room, or rather, their afterimages were everywhere.
Unable to discern which one was the real one, their movements and positions shifted constantly, and the once spacious room suddenly felt quite cramped as they fought.
The ant corpses on the ground were further shattered by the residual force of their battle, leaving the ground a complete mess.
The room they were in was not damaged by their fight.
"Old man, with your strength, are you going to your death to fight the Ant King?" The white-haired boy took Netero's punch and then retaliated with a punch of his own.
He didn't even use any low-key, purely flesh-to-flesh fighting techniques.
However, his experience of fighting against him was a huge disappointment.
Netero's strength, though it increased steadily over time, was still... nothing more.
They couldn't feel the tension of being on the brink of life and death.
Even though he clearly felt that the opponent's strength was more than that, he was still unable to unleash his true power.
A powerful soul is bound by an aging body.
In that instant, Su Wu lost all interest in continuing to fight her opponent.
If the fight continues, the other side will clearly run out of steam and won't have enough energy. In that case, it will be seen as him bullying an old man.
He immediately withdrew his hand, but Netero's fist came straight for his face. The wind from the punch ruffled the stray hairs on his forehead, but his eyes remained calm. The fist stopped steadily just a millimeter away from the tip of his nose. If he had misjudged the situation even slightly, it would have smashed into his nose.
Nitero clearly did not make any mistakes.
Su Wu didn't ask the other party why they didn't use their hidden ultimate move, since he himself hadn't considered using Cang or He, as the space was too small to execute them effectively.
Moreover... they weren't actually fighting.
"Can your hidden ultimate move take me down?" Su Wu glanced at the ground where there was almost nowhere to put her feet, and immediately sat down cross-legged with her legs wide open.
"..." Netero stroked his beard, smiling without saying a word, seemingly confident.
Keep pretending, old man, you're such a deadbeat.
Su Wu felt that even if the old man suddenly unleashed his full power, he probably wouldn't be able to kill her.
Theoretically speaking, if you can defeat his techniques, then defeating the Ant King will be a piece of cake.
But the old man didn't have any.
"Hey, do you really not know you might die?" Su Wu asked lazily, resting her chin on one hand.
Having lived for so many years, as the president of the Hunter Association, managing a bunch of people, and always smiling, he couldn't possibly be so stupid as to not see the situation clearly.
"Of course I know," Netero said with a smile, "but I am the most suitable candidate."
"If we win, that would be a great thing."
"Even if I lose, it's because I'm not as strong as my opponent." He looked relaxed and wasn't bothered by it.
"Is it something from your heart that gives you support?" Su Wu asked, pointing to the old man's chest.
He noticed it the moment they met; it seemed like there was something around the other person's heart.
"You found out." Netero wasn't surprised that the boy in front of him knew the secret he hid in his heart. "Keep it a secret."
"Whether I win or lose, in this battle between humans and ants, humans will ultimately prevail."
He smiled, like a reliable elder comforting a younger generation.
Su Wu sensed a strange sense of ease from the other party's attitude.
I don't know if it's the willingness to fight the strong or the composure to die for humanity.
How should I put it? Is Netero a human being with the awareness to die for the benefit of the masses?
"You're really reliable, old man." Su Wu praised him casually, his tone disrespectful, as if he were the elder and Netero the junior.
"But what about something like you? Will it kill the Ant King?" Su Wu asked, stroking her chin.
At least when he was observing that thing, he didn't sense any danger or warning.
"It has claimed the lives of 5.12 million people," Netero simply stated.
Hmm~ a nuclear bomb, huh?
If it's the power of a nuclear bomb, killing ordinary people is no problem, but killing an individual equivalent to a BOSS... that would be a bit difficult, right?
If a top-tier cursed spirit can withstand a barrage of missiles, can a top-tier cursed power withstand a nuclear bomb?
Could Gojo Satoru and Sukuna withstand a nuclear bomb?
I'm tempted to give it a try.
"Okay, I understand. Take your time with your rehabilitation training." Su Wu stood up, made a phone call to someone outside, and then left the room.
Stepping out of the room, he reappeared before Mo Laowu and Nobu.
The white mist in the forest was created by Moriarty, while the black hole and the space were Nob's abilities.
The two of them teamed up to catch ants and accompany Nitero during his rehabilitation training.
He can be considered Netero's right-hand man in this operation.
"Have you finished talking with the chairman?" Mo Laowu asked casually, holding a huge pipe that was taller than a person.
"More or less." The white-haired boy looked sullen and rather irritable.
His brief encounter with Netero did not satisfy him; he just felt... rather bored.
Netero clearly didn't want to waste too much energy on him, focusing instead on conserving his strength for the battle against the Ant King, which is why his fight with him was so... boring.
Neither of them was fighting seriously; their battle was more like a game, so it wasn't very interesting.
"never mind."
Mo Laowu and Nuobu only saw the arrogant, haughty white-haired youth sigh, disappear into the air, and go nowhere.
Su Wu was in a bad mood because she couldn't have a pleasant fight with the old man.
So annoying that when he saw dragonflies and ants flying in the air, he didn't even bother to say anything and just wiped out a whole bunch of ants.
Looking at the sky where not a single ant could be found, his mood improved slightly.
The next second, he plunged headfirst into the forest below.
A diverse army of ants, including leopards, tigers, pigs, cats, dogs, wolves, and even half-ant-horses.
They were all taken from their lives in an instant, without even seeing what the person who took their lives looked like.
Su Wu went straight ahead and rushed to the ants' nest.
Without saying a word, he killed all the ants that were still alive inside.
Only then did I feel that the headache had subsided considerably.
"Phew..." He let go, and the bead in his hand rolled a distance on the ground before rolling to a corpse.
"I think I sensed Gon and Killua just now..." He finally had the leisure to pay attention to other things.
the other side.
Bisky was looking at a handsome men's magazine, each page featuring men of different styles, while Killua and Gon were practicing their reading in a horse stance beside her.
A woman with long, curly black hair covered her head, making it difficult to see her face clearly, but one could see her pale, ghost-like complexion and her thin, bony body.
Suddenly, Bisky's expression hardened.
The ghost-like figure looked up as if sensing something.
Gon and Killua also noticed and looked behind them.
"Focus on your training." The voice came from behind, with two hands on Gon's and Killua's shoulders respectively.
The two recognized each other from their black fingernails and the black rings on their wrists.
"Because of your sudden appearance that day, Kate died. She died a horrible death, tortured and turned into a human skeleton by ants. When I arrived, she was just bones." Su Wu said, handing them a white skull.
There was not a trace of flesh or blood left, only clean bones.
"It's so pitiful," Su Wu continued.
Gon and Killua were so shocked by the skeleton that they even made mistakes during training.
"As his friend, it's reasonable for me to take my anger out on you and beat you up, right?" Su Wu said, as if afraid they would see the skull clearly, and casually stuffed the skull she had retrieved from the ant nest back into Chou Bao's mouth.
Then, without saying a word, he proceeded to give Killua and Gon a thorough beating.
"I don't believe it!" Xiao Jie gritted his teeth. "I don't believe Kate is dead!" he said stubbornly.
The next second, he was punched by Su Wu and his face was bruised and swollen.
"Believe it or not," Su Wu sneered.
We've already done it, so whether you believe it or not doesn't matter.
After beating the two of them until they were screaming in pain, Su Wu felt that her mood had improved a little.
I felt even happier when I saw Gon and Killua so distraught over Kite's death.
"You..." Bisky frowned, about to say something, when the white-haired boy's figure disappeared right in front of them.
Clearly, they didn't want to chat with them.
"You brat!" Bisky was furious.
Don't disturb their training sessions!
After having thoroughly dealt with almost everyone on the human side, Su Wu silently looked into the distance.
……
NGL Palace.
The combat strength and firepower of ordinary humans are insignificant in front of the Chimera Ants. The centralized buildings that originally belonged to the human government have been transformed into the palace of the Chimera Ant King.
All of this happened in less than half an hour.
Humanity was utterly defeated, and the corpses were controlled by Neferpitou, serving as palace guards and patrols, making use of the waste.
Su Wu turned on her toes, circled the palace, surveyed the surroundings, and then came to the vicinity of the Chimera Ant King.
He was there waiting for the show to begin, such as the domineering ant king falling in love with a human girl (who is said to be blind). Su Wu was very interested in this and decided to observe up close how ants and humans fall in love.
The theme of a domineering tycoon falling in love with a young girl is a timeless classic in the world of novels, which shows just how popular it is.
No novel or TV series can compare to a live performance.
However, after looking for a long time, Su Wu still couldn't find the so-called blind girl next to the Ant King.
These two haven't met yet? When will they meet?
The Ant King is an ant wearing a hat (or helmet?) with green skin (and a very uniform green), extremely long earlobes that reach down to his shoulders, purple carapaces on half of his arms, hands that look like he's wearing half-finger gloves, a thick and long tail with dark and light green stripes, the end of which looks like a syringe with a needle, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, eight-pack abs, and a V-line as clear as an ant's life plan...
He has a good-looking face, is quite handsome, and has a domineering CEO vibe.
A non-human handsome guy, which will probably appeal to many people's attraction to attractive men.
But why green-skinned? The green-skinned character Su Wu remembered most vividly was the goblin…
Although the green ants in front of me are much more attractive than goblins.
After waiting for a long time, Su Wu still didn't get to see that part of the story. Instead, the Ant King seemed to be looking around suspiciously.
Su Wu's overly audacious gaze, as if she were eyeing the pork at a stall, caught his attention.
"Who's there?" The moment he spoke, his tail lashed out in the direction of Su Wu.
The tail slammed against the tent with a thud. Although it didn't break the tent, it did reveal that something was there.
"We've been discovered." Su Wu raised an eyebrow with interest and removed the surrounding curtains.
"Humans!"
"How did humans end up here?"
"It's you." Neferpitou couldn't help but bare his teeth as he looked at the familiar figure.
This guy is sure to cause trouble for the king.
The other two ants following behind the queen ant performed similarly.
"Your Majesty, I will deal with him." Neferpitou knelt on one knee, respectfully requesting permission.
"No need, you're no match for him." The Ant King refused the catwoman without hesitation.
"Your strength seems quite good." Meruem looked at the white-haired human in front of him.
He really needed someone to let him test his abilities.
Ants will not disobey him, so the best test subject is humans.
"I think so too. Your strength is not bad. Want to play with me?" The white-haired human nodded, his arrogant expression on par with Meruem's.
Is this guy... the king of humanity?
Meruem thought to himself.
There was no further conversation.
The air churned beneath his feet, and his figure vanished from the spot.
The sonic booms seemed to come from all directions.
Neferpitou was able to capture the moment when the human and the ant were fighting thanks to his exceptional dynamic vision.
The two figures changed positions several times in a single second during their fight.
The sound of explosions breaking the sound barrier rang out one after another.
