Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

"Lord Razor... but I feel the opponent harbored no malice..."

Elena hurriedly said, "If the opponent had malicious intentions, I wouldn't be able to communicate with everyone right now."

Elena's words instantly silenced the boiling chat group.

Indeed, if the opponent truly had malicious intentions, Elena, as the beginner guide, couldn't possibly still be standing there; she would highly likely already be dead.

"List, why do you think this situation occurred?" an avatar in the chat group flashed.

"...Although it's hard to accept, there's over a ninety percent chance that it's highly likely the opponent's current Nen strength has surpassed Ging, who created this game..."

The administrator named List gave the answer.

His words instantly struck everyone dumb.

Because to everyone, this was simply unimaginable.

At least in their cognition, Ging Freecss was almost the absolute pinnacle existence among all known powerhouses, second only to Netero.

Even when completing this game, Ging himself had said that as long as that guy Netero didn't come to cause trouble, this game could run stably for at least 30 years.

Who would have thought a player named Riku would suddenly emerge out of nowhere and actually break through Ging's Nen strength!

In reality.

This G.I. game and Riku's Gaming Phone were somewhat similar.

Except this was equivalent to a super massive server that allowed all sorts of players to enter the game world. Riku's was more akin to a console.

The most direct way to break this kind of game was for one's own Nen pressure to exceed that of the game's creator.

The beginner guide administrator had been struck by a player, which was why the other administrators were so shocked.

"Of course, we can't rule out the 10% chance of other possibilities," List added.

"Then does that mean our only choice now is to have Razor step in, and ally with the other NPCs in this game to subjugate him?" Elena worriedly asked.

The highest combat power among the game administrators was Razor. This guy's combat power was a tier just below Ging's and belonged to the top-tier powerhouses.

In the past, some powerful troublemakers were taken care of by Razor.

Moreover, Razor held special cards with administrator privileges that could directly expel players.

"No... Since the opponent didn't actively attack our Elena or cause substantial harm, then just as Elena said, the opponent doesn't seem to want to make enemies of us. Furthermore, given the opponent's Nen pressure... our confinement rules shouldn't have been able to pull him into the confinement area.

Yet the opponent still chose to be confined. Therefore, we have no reason to directly expel or attack him. Moreover, once we truly become hostile with the opponent, our chances of winning are not high."

List said in a deep voice. His voice sounded like that of a young boy.

"Indeed, I think so too. Since the opponent chose to abide by the game's rules, we should continue to run this game according to its rules. As long as the opponent doesn't do anything further out of line, we'll tacitly permit his existence."

Dwun also spoke up.

He and List were the true core developers of this game. Elena and Eta were twin sisters respectively responsible for player management.

The execution of the game's core modules and other maintenance aspects were handled by Dwun and List.

"So you're saying we just leave this guy alone?"

Razor was somewhat disappointed. He really wanted to stretch his muscles.

"Let it be for now. There's no need for us to maliciously plan against these unstable factors. Elena, do you need me to bring some medicine for your wound?"

"Wuwuwuwu... no need, I'll rest for a bit and it'll be fine soon. I think this is the best approach too. That player shouldn't have any malicious intent, I can feel it."

"Alright, alright. Since you, the victim, have spoken, we naturally have no reason to say anything more. But I still suggest everyone keep an eye on this player."

"Of course. Don't worry, List and I will pay attention."

"Then let's leave it at that. I'm going offline."

...

Game World.

Confinement Area.

"Hurry up and let me out!"

"Damn it! You bunch of son-of-a-bitch administrators, when I get out I'm going to kill all of you! Kill all of you!!!"

"Wuwuwu... I was wrong, can you please stop confining me? I've been locked up for five days..."

"Help, is anyone going to save me?"

...

It was just rooms of various sizes floating in a blank white space.

There was absolutely no greenery, no scenery to speak of. They were simply locked up here, and a personal countdown timer would appear in each player's field of vision.

Those who committed serious crimes were locked up here for several days, or even months.

For a first-time offender like Riku, the confinement was just 24 hours.

Moreover, these prisoners couldn't communicate with each other; the game directly restricted it.

Actually, if Riku wanted to communicate, he could totally do it with his abilities. He just had no interest in the players locked up here.

Instead, he began to toy with the binder he obtained in the game.

That is, the magic book.

The rules of this game were very simple: any item obtained in this game could be turned into a card.

This magic book was specifically used to collect cards. The ultimate goal of the game was to collect all the cards to fill every slot in the book. Each slot had a corresponding number.

These numbered slots were called Designated Pockets. In the pages towards the back, the unnumbered slots could hold any card and were called Free Pockets.

The requirement to clear the game was to place 100 specific cards into their corresponding Designated Pockets.

Any item in the game could directly become a card. If it had a number, it went into a Designated Pocket; if it didn't, it went into a Free Pocket.

If you wanted to turn these cards back into their previous item forms, you needed to use the 'Gain' magic, which took the card out.

Once unsealed, these cards would return to their original state but could not become cards again.

Therefore, this actually meant that obtaining the same card required at least two of them.

Besides unsealed cards being unable to be sealed again, there were two other situations where they couldn't be sealed again.

One was when the card transformation limit reached its maximum. Because in this game, every item had a limit on how many times it could be turned into a card.

Some were limited to over 100 cards, while some were limited to only a few, essentially making them limited edition cards.

Once these cards were held in other people's hands, they could no longer be dropped in any other area. To obtain the card, you had to defeat the player holding it and forcefully take it.

To put it bluntly, it was a competitive mechanism.

Another situation where an item couldn't be cardified again was when a card was left outside the book for 60 seconds; it would turn back into an item, and in this state, it could not be put back.

In addition to this, if a player died in this game, their magic book and ring would be destroyed, and all the cards inside would also completely disappear.

Because he had defeated Elena and obtained her Super Memory trait...

Riku didn't get this specific information from her explanation, but directly extracted it from her trait.

It had to be said, Greed Island was quite an interesting game. It was just a pity he had to spend a period of confinement here.

It gave him a headache.

Meanwhile.

Gon and Killua had already entered the game world, appearing impressively in front of a...

vast, boundless grassy plain.

"Killua! You're here!!"

Upon seeing Killua, Gon was thrilled.

The two waited together for a while but still didn't see Riku arrive.

"What's going on? Why hasn't Riku appeared yet? Going by the speed of the beginner guide, he should have appeared around now too."

Gon was extremely puzzled.

"It was said earlier that entering the game world involves random distribution..."

Killua explained.

"But that's not right. We have the relevant clearance information left by my dad, so it's highly likely we'd be distributed to the same area. Normally, Riku should be nearby. But no one has appeared?"

Gon bit his lip.

Killua also looked around bewildered.

It had to be said, this game was truly amazing. After entering this game world, it felt entirely like a brand new world.

Whether it was the sunlight shining down from the sky, the smell of the air, or the sensation of the wind blowing against their bodies, everything felt completely real.

It was truly a second world in every sense!

"Then let's wait here for a bit."

Gon and Killua said almost simultaneously.

After speaking, the two simply sat directly on the lawn, leaning against the peculiar tower-like structure they had just descended the stairs from.

Beep, beep, beep~~

Suddenly, the two discovered a sound coming from their game interface.

"Huh? Th-What is this?"

Gon was incredibly curious.

"It's a message from Riku!!"

Killua exclaimed in surprise, because he had also noticed the message from Riku.

"I ran into some trouble on my end and might be delayed for a while. You guys can explore the safe zones first, but don't go too far. It'll probably take me over 20 hours to get there."

Riku sent the message.

There was no helping it; he was currently confined here.

But what surprised him was that after obtaining part of Elena's administrator privileges, he could actually converse with other players while in confinement.

Of course, communication was still limited to players he had made contact with; this was a feature of G.I.

In addition, Riku's vision interface now included a full-map information overlay. He could clearly see the two glowing dots representing Gon and Killua, showing the area they were currently in.

Impressively, they were at a beginner login point.

Although both guys were Children of Destiny, he still didn't want any accidents to happen because of this. Because in this game world, if you die, you truly die; there were still certain risks.

His appearance had already altered the trajectory of this game, so Riku wasn't at ease.

"Ah? Riku! Why is it going to take you so long to get here? Did you run into some trouble?"

"Do you need our help?"

"It's nothing, just some minor things. I might have to keep you guys waiting for a bit."

"Don't worry, Riku. Just focus on dealing with it. Killua and I will wait for you here."

Smiles finally appeared on Gon and Killua's faces.

At the very least, they now had news from Riku.

...

Confinement Area.

Suddenly, a peculiar black door appeared in that vast white space.

Upon seeing this black door appear, the players locked in the cages grew excited one by one.

Suddenly, they saw a handsome young boy with short blond hair, wearing a suit, slowly walk out from the black door. With every step he took, a golden staircase materialized beneath his feet.

"Let me out! Let me out!!"

"I know I was wrong, I won't do it again!"

"Please let me out, this damn place is too boring, I won't make mistakes again!"

...

The confined players began to shout loudly one by one.

However, this handsome young boy didn't seem to pay attention to these players. Instead, he walked directly toward Riku's direction.

Riku couldn't help but lift his eyelids, taking a second look at the young boy who walked up to him.

"Hello, I am List."

The short blond-haired young boy introduced himself politely in front of Riku.

"Oh?"

Riku's eyes suddenly lit up.

That look gave the young boy before him an inexplicable chill down his spine.

He suddenly somewhat understood why Elena, the beginner administrator, had been attacked by the opponent.

Because the guy before him indeed seemed to be somewhat... indecent.

Why was he looking at him with such a gaze?

He suddenly felt an inexplicable regret; it seemed he shouldn't have come here.

But if he didn't make the trip, he felt his heart wouldn't be at peace.

So at this moment, he could only forcefully maintain the composure in his heart.

Because he realized... if the opponent could attack Elena, the beginner guide, then it was highly likely he could touch him too.

This is bad...

"Don't worry, my usage limit for today is depleted. I won't attack you for now," Riku said with a smile.

"Usage limit depleted!?"

List was stunned; he had no idea what Riku was talking about.

But he could sense Riku's gaze on him slowly calming down from its initial gleam.

Who told his traits to look exceptionally hot in front of Riku?

After all, this guy also carried administrator traits, and he also possessed top-tier programming development traits.

Naturally, this made Riku somewhat tempted.

But at least for now, Riku felt there was no need to completely fall out with the entire management of the game.

God knows how long he would be in the Hunter world. This G.I. was absolutely a very ideal game world. Destroying such a good world would be somewhat of a reckless waste of a precious resource.

Besides, he hadn't yet enjoyed this Sword Art Online-esque game world.

As a transmigrator, he yearned for it quite a bit.

"Tell me the purpose of your visit."

Riku smiled.

"Riku, the youngest Two-Star Hunter in the Hunter Association in nearly thirty years, suspected to be Netero's disciple, Floor Master of the Heaven's Arena 200th floor and above, seems to have clashed with the Phantom Troupe, and once had a bounty of 100 billion Jenny on the black market..."

The young boy, List, rattled off a bunch of information, his eyes shining brightly as he looked at Riku.

He hadn't expected the results of investigating this player to be so astonishing.

It was practically mind-blowing!

Therefore, he believed he had to make this trip.

"Oh... Since you've investigated me so thoroughly, I'll skip the self-introduction," Riku smiled.

"Mr. Riku, you offended Elena upon logging into the game. But as a game administrator, Elena expressed her understanding and even asked us to proactively release you early. The G.I. game founding team harbors no malice toward you.

I have come this time to represent the G.I. game founding team and extend an invitation to you: Join us, and I can give you a portion of the administrative privileges!"

The young boy extended a hand toward Riku, trying his best to make the smile on his little face look relaxed and natural.

Even though his little face was indeed twitching constantly due to nervousness.
