Chapter 365: The Speed of Light Ends
The weather is fine, and the ship rides the wind and waves on the sea.
All the candidates are scattered around the deck. On the surface, the test has not officially started, but secretly, the test has already started.
The number plates used in the lottery are square, which are used to distinguish the round number plates worn by candidates.
After the lottery is over, candidates are free to dispose of the square number plate, either hiding it or throwing it away directly.
However, most of the candidates choose to put it away. After all, under the premise of concealing who the prey is, at a certain time, as long as they show the prey brand, an unnecessary battle may be avoided.
The examinee's number plate worn on the body must also be hidden. In addition to reducing the chance of the number plate being snatched, it can also be used as a fluke to prevent hunters from discovering it.
There was no sound on the deck, and the eyes of the examinees were crossing each other. Some looked at them unscrupulously, and some lowered their heads to avoid their eyes.
"Luo, what's your target number?" Dongba came to Luo's side and sat down.
Luo opened his eyes to look at Dongba, raised his hand, showed Dongba the number plate, and then put it in the black cat space.
Dongba saw the number and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
If Luo didn't make a special note of the number plate, he could tell Luo who the candidate on No. 384 was, not just 384. He remembered the number of every candidate on board.
"I know." Luo looked up at the blue sky, and said calmly, "Except for number 301, everything else is not a problem for you."
Dongba said: "Well, fortunately, my goal is not No. 301, but even if I get No. 301, I can still grab the number plates of other candidates to collect 3 points."
No. 301 is an Il fan. In fact, apart from Luo and Il fans, Dongba has full confidence to get the number of any candidate.
Luo nodded, said no more, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
On the other side, Kurapika sat on the ground with his head slightly lowered, his expression slightly dignified.
After more or less determining the strength of the target, he had to consider another plan.
Whether to try to overcome the obstacles and get the number plate of the target, or take a long detour to find a way to get the number plate of the other three candidates.
This is something Kurapika must seriously consider right now.
"Luck, is it part of strength..."
Kurapika gave a low wry smile. During the time before the ship arrived at the island, he might have been vacillating.
Leorio was sitting not far from Kurapika. He saw Kurapika's unconcealable sadness, paused, and turned his gaze to Kiya and Xiaojie on the other side.
In this test, the identities of hunter and prey are like dozens of lines arranged into a spider web, and each person is also the prey of others while serving as a hunter.
So, don't think about cooperating without knowing the real details of the relationship between hunter and prey.
With this in mind, Leorio didn't rush to find Kurapika and Jay and the others.
Two hours later, the ship arrived at Piro Island and docked on the shore.
The person in charge went ashore first, and said to the many candidates who were still on the deck: "We have arrived, please disembark in the order in which you drew lots just now. The next person can disembark after two minutes after the previous person disembarked."
"Your stay on the island is for one week, please collect six points during this period, and then come back here."
"Now, please disembark the first candidate."
As soon as the words fell, Luo got up, jumped to the shore, and walked towards the dense woods under the gaze of everyone.
Kurapika watched Luo's figure disappear into the woods, then silently looked away.
After walking more than ten meters into the woods, Luo lost his breath and hid in a tree.
The person who gets off the boat first has an advantage, and can hide first to observe the movement of the prey. This is the advantage established by the test results.
However, there is another way to use this advantage, only more violent.
The second person to disembark was Dongba, who walked into the forest very calmly.
Looking at Dongba's figure going away, Xiaojie took a deep breath.
Next comes the third, the fourth...
Until the eighth, Xiaojie and his party all set off, and at the tenth time, a curly-haired black man wearing a hat and sunglasses landed, holding a weapon in the shape of a walking stick in his hand.
This person is Greta from No. 384, who is also Luo's target.
After Greta came ashore, he went straight to the direction where Xiaojie left. His goal was Xiaojie.
When he was walking five or six steps, he suddenly heard a gust of wind, and suddenly felt a pain in the back of his neck.
"what?"
Greta's eyes trembled under the sunglasses, her thoughts melted like ink on the paper, and her consciousness was instantly plunged into darkness.
Boom.
Greta fell to the ground, unconscious.
Luo stood behind Greta, directly in front of the remaining candidates and even the examiners, and searched out the number plate from Greta.
It wasn't until Luo held the number plate in his hand that the candidates who hadn't set off realized this, and their heartbeats couldn't help but speed up.
They didn't see clearly how Luo appeared behind Greta.
"Fortunately, this person's target is not himself."
Almost all the candidates were thinking silently in their hearts, and then looked at Greta who had her number plate snatched from the bank with pity.
"Examiner, isn't this a foul!" But one examinee couldn't help asking.
The fox-eyed examiner put his hands behind his back, concealed his surprise, and said, "He didn't foul, he just took advantage of getting off the boat first."
Luo held the number plate with his index finger, flipped it over, and put the number plate into the black cat space, but in the eyes of other candidates, the number plate disappeared.
After putting away the number plate, Luo walked towards the shore, where the ship also docked.
Seeing this, the candidates subconsciously took a step back, showing vigilance on their faces.
I heard that there are some crazy guys in the hunter test. If this powerful man wants to have a wave of crazy blocking, it will be over.
The fox-eyed examiner looked at Luo who was walking slowly, and was also secretly vigilant, but even if Luo wanted to do that, he had no right to stop him.
Under everyone's gaze, Luo sat on the ground near the ship, his chin resting on his knees, his eyes hidden in the shadow woven by the scarf.
This is the meeting point after seven days. Now that we have collected all six points, we just need to wait here.
Seeing that Luo didn't make a clear move, the candidates and the examiner all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, the next candidate got off the bank and rushed into the woods, fearing to follow in Greta's footsteps.
Time passed until the twenty-eighth candidate, that is, Yi Ermi, walked off the boat slowly while making a rattling sound.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't look at Luo, but walked directly into the woods.
At this point, all candidates are ashore.
The fox-eyed examiner glanced at Luo, who was sitting on the shore, and Greta, who was unconscious, and boarded the boat silently.
With the sound of a whistle, the ship went away.
The sea breeze blew, shaking Luo's scarf constantly.
When the sun was about to set, a person came out from the woods, and it was Kurapika.
Luo slowly raised his head, looked at Kurapika, and said unexpectedly, "Your target is me?"
With a solemn expression, Kurapika unloaded his package and jacket, pulled out a pair of wooden knives from behind, and said in a deep voice, "Yes."
"If I were you, I wouldn't waste time here." Luo said lightly.
