Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

Chapter 132 132: Can't Win, So Unplug the Internet Cable?



When the young boy spoke these words, he directly used his administrator privileges to shield their voices from the surroundings.

This meant that the other players locked in the confinement rooms couldn't hear their conversation at all, although they could still see their actions.

"Oh my god! What's up with that guy? Why did he reach out his hand to that confined player?"

"Why do I get the feeling they're discussing a collaboration?"

They sized up Gon and Killua with malicious intent in their eyes, wearing hypocritical smiles on their faces.

"We already have a team. We won't team up with you," Gon directly refused.

"Oh? If you won't team up with us, then we'll just have to invite you out of this game. Damn it, as long as we can clear this game, there's a 200 billion bounty waiting for us! The fewer players in this game, the greater our chances of clearing it."

"Hehehe! Brats, I can only say your luck is bad!"

The two men grinned savagely as they approached.

They were also new players who had logged in from other locations; their card books were completely empty.

But in this game world, aside from using cards to fight, one could also engage in physical combat.

Therefore, without the buffs from cards, they could only rely on their own combat power.

Because the number of players was limited, they believed that eliminating these weak players would greatly increase their chances of clearing the game.

Especially after hearing that the number of cards in this game world was limited, it was naturally better to eliminate more players.

Otherwise, wouldn't their chances of obtaining those limited-edition cards become lower and lower?

Crack, crack, crack~~

The two guys, one fat and one thin, cracked their knuckles.

Bang! Bang!—

Just as they walked up to the two brats, they saw Killua and Gon attack directly.

One used a fishing rod, the other a close-quarters hand chop!

These two noob players didn't even have time to utter a single sound before they fell stiffly to the ground.

The guy attacked by Gon had his temple smashed in, dying on the spot!

The guy attacked by Killua had his heart directly hollowed out and crushed.

Their beginner magic books fell beside them, naturally empty inside.

It could be said they died a rather miserable death.

After going through so much over this period, the two were long past being naive children. Especially after following Riku recently, they had grown considerably.

Since the opponent harbored malicious intent, they naturally had no need to hold back!

Subsequently, two flashes of light appeared on the players' bodies, and their corpses, along with their magic books, vanished completely.

Even the blood splattered on the ground vanished cleanly.

It was exactly as if monsters killed in a game world were directly refreshed.

There were no traces left to prove these two guys had ever been in this world.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, these two players had turned into corpses lying outside.

At the same time.

In the real world.

Inside the ancient castle villa.

Tsezguerra's assault team had been entering the game one after another.

Tsezguerra chose to be among the last few to enter the game.

Just as the final two players were preparing to enter the game.

A faint sound echoed.

Pfft! Pfft!

It sounded like watermelons being sliced open, very low, but incredibly clear in this quiet ancient castle.

Currently, in this basement, one could clearly see the monitors in a login state.

Each monitor displayed a figure.

Impressively, they were the players who had logged into this game.

But the final two players, before they could even log in, had already turned into falling corpses. A crimson playing card was lodged in each of their heads!

Their faces still held expressions of excitement, bewilderment, and confusion.

A faint scent of blood wafted out from the basement, and towards the passageway, the stench of blood was incredibly thick.

The ordinary bodyguards responsible for defense were all dead.

Cards were lodged in all of their heads.

Two figures, one in front of the other, walked slowly down the passageway.

They were impressively Chrollo and Hisoka.

"This is truly a dangerous plan, but... I like it."

Hisoka licked the blood off his card, a manic look on his face.

He and Chrollo had been tailing Riku's group all the way, but they didn't dare get too close.

They only dared to peek stealthily from the shadows.

Through various sources of information, they had gathered intel on Riku and learned about the special game cards of Greed Island.

"The final hope of survival lies in the eastern direction..."

Chrollo looked at the prophetic poem in his hand.

This was the reason he made this choice.

The east... meaning the direction of this ancient castle, the location of these game cards.

Or perhaps the specific direction within this Greed Island game?

He had many questions in his heart.

But after learning of the deaths of his other members, he didn't even take the initiative to contact Phinks and the others.

Instead, he directly chose to consider entering this game with Hisoka.

He wanted to find a way to deal with that monster in this game, or find a chance of survival for his team.

The world was only so big; no matter where he fled, he would eventually be found by Riku.

Fleeing was absolutely not the solution.

At least, that was how Chrollo saw it.

Moreover.

Not only did they have the opportunity to enter the game, but they could even find out which machines Riku and the others used to log in!!

"Oh, here... Riku, Killua, Gon... It seems all three guys have already entered the game."

Hisoka licked his lips. "Are we going straight in?"

Chrollo stared at the machines with flickering eyes, while Hisoka waited for an answer.

"No... Take away the three login consoles they used, and... ours too..."

Chrollo suddenly said.

"Hm?"

This unexpected answer made Hisoka pause for a moment.

Because both of them clearly understood right now that their combined strength might not be enough to match that monster Riku.

To truly kill Riku, they had to seek outside help or find other methods.

Machi's side had also completely lost contact... It could be said that the entire team had now completely fallen apart.

The login consoles of Riku's trio were equivalent to time bombs. Once those three guys came out, it would be an absolute disaster for them.

"Since they entered the game, there will eventually be a time they come out. When that time comes, wouldn't it be nice to arrange a surprise for them?

As for us, there's no need to log in from the same area as them, right, Hisoka?"

Chrollo smiled.

Nice!

You really are a sly old fox!! Chrollo!

A perverse and excited smile couldn't help but appear on Hisoka's face. His narrow eyes flickered like a venomous snake's as he directly took away five login consoles.

Impressively, these included the three consoles Riku's trio had used to log in!

...

"Damn it! This is absolutely cheating! I'm going to report this! I want to report!"

"Report my ass. Even if it's cheating, so what? This is a private server game."

...

The other players locked in the confinement rooms howled and complained one by one.

But what they said was true. Greed Island was essentially a private server game.

If you don't like it, don't play.

No one was forcing them to play. It was someone else's private server; they could give out whatever they wanted, however they wanted.

Riku couldn't help but take another look at the young boy before him, feeling a newfound respect for this little guy.

Name: List System Traits: [Administrator: Game Module Construction] - Gold, [Super Programmer] - Gold, [Calmness] - Gold, [Courage] - Gold, [Cooking] - Purple, [Mysophobia] - Gold, etc.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Although he wasn't a combat-oriented talent, a full body of glittering Gold traits was indeed astonishing.

Unlike Elena, List was a true master programmer!

He, along with Dwun, Ging, and a few others, partnered to build this game. All the structural settings within the game were essentially completed by them.

An administrator like Razor was more like the muscle, doing the heavy lifting. Elena was the beautiful greeter. Different roles naturally meant different functions.

However, if he cheated too much in the game, it wouldn't be very fun to play.

After all, this was a game Riku intended to play for a long time. Furthermore, although the traits on this little brat were all Gold, there wasn't really anything that truly tempted Riku.

It would be like downloading a new game and immediately paying to max out his level; he could just completely bulldoze through all the level designs and everything...

Well, after bulldozing it, there'd be nothing left. The current Riku could also bulldoze it.

He just felt that if he beat up this little kid again and made him cry, what would he do?

He didn't expect the opponent to actually dare to come here and invite him to join their founding team, even offering administrative privileges.

"Including a portion of the game's administrative privileges and original shares," List stated solemnly.

Upon seeing the opponent not attack, he understood that if they signed a collaboration, there was absolutely room for negotiation.

Therefore, he gained a bit more confidence in his heart, believing the conditions he offered were exceedingly generous.

Of course, the so-called privileges and shares couldn't possibly be higher than their own.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to keep this monster in check.

However, since the opponent had ties with Netero, the Chairman of the Pro Hunter Association, his character should presumably be trustworthy.

This was the real reason the child felt reassured.

"I have absolutely no interest in game administration, and I don't want to join you either. If that's all you have, you can leave now."

Riku shrugged.

Joining their game team meant that when problems arose in this game, he would also have a responsibility to maintain it.

Wouldn't that make him their protective umbrella?

It would be like dragging a bunch of dead weights around, getting in his way.

As for Gon and Killua, it was entirely because the residents of Whale Island and Aunt Mito had treated him well.

A debt of gratitude spanning over a decade, so he was happy to bring the two little guys along.

But for List and his group, forget it.

He was a man destined to step into the Dark Continent sooner or later, to stand at the pinnacle of that world.

"Alright then... Mr. Riku, may I add you as a friend? If you encounter any problems in the game, you can contact me directly."

List sighed, even using honorifics when addressing Riku.

He understood that the man before him was a monster comparable to Ging!

Ging's whereabouts were currently unknown, God knows when he would appear again.

"Alright."

Riku accepted the opponent's friend request.

"My Game Administrator Friend"

Hmm, it felt something like that.

"I am truly sorry about what happened earlier. You may leave now. I hope you have an enjoyable time in the game."

List bowed slightly to Riku.

Then, a peculiar power enveloped Riku, but it simply couldn't directly send Riku out of there.

List's mouth twitched.

The game rules formulated by Ging back then simply didn't apply to this player.

Whether this opponent decided to destroy this game or do things to break it was entirely dependent on his mood.

"Don't worry, I won't deliberately destroy this game. After all, it's something left behind by little Gon's father, right?"

Riku smiled, suppressing his Nen pressure, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.

Leaving the young boy standing there somewhat blankly.

So...

Mr. Riku knew who the true developer of this game was from very early on?

List smiled bitterly.

...

"Hey, hey, hey! This is too unfair, what's going on? I saw that guy get locked in here with my own eyes, barely a few minutes ago. How did he get let out so fast?"

"Holy shit!! Rigged, absolutely rigged."

"I want to report this, I want to report this."

"What a bullshit game, not fair at all! Fuck... why did my confinement time increase by an hour? Fuck you! Fuck, two hours... Daddy... I was wrong..."

"Wuwuwu..."

...

The other confined players boiled over, but upon seeing their punishment time increase, they obediently shut their mouths one by one, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.

List merely gave these players a cold glance, then walked slowly alone back to the black doorway, his figure vanishing from the spot.

...

Outside.

On the grassy plain.

"Killua, Riku said it would take almost a full day and night for him to get back. Should we just sleep here today? We don't have anything to eat. I wonder if you'll get hungry?"

"I brought some biscuits... want some?"

"Wow! Great, let's leave some for Riku too!"

"Yeah! Wait, Gon, someone is watching us."

"I feel it too!"

...

The two, just about to eat their biscuits, suddenly stopped their movements.

Not far from them, behind the beginner tower, several figures slowly emerged. They were other players who had entered subsequently.

They didn't enter through Tsezguerra's group, because this game was released worldwide. Although the number of copies was limited, there were players entering from other places as well.

"Hehe! Friends, are you also players who just entered? We are too. First time playing this game, we have absolutely no experience. How about we team up?"

"Yeah, yeah. For novice players like us, many guys have been playing in here for a long time. If we don't stick together, we'll suffer a big disadvantage."

Two middle-aged men, one fat and one thin, walked towards the two.
