Chapter 1118: Stories
After the matter was settled, the atmosphere at the table became much more relaxed.
Seeing that Su Xiao still hadn't touched his food, Zeno Zoldick put down his chopsticks.
The old man used either a knife and fork or chopsticks.
— Are you afraid that we've poisoned this food? And as soon as Zeno Zoldik asked this question, all the other members of the Zoldik family looked at Su Xiao.
— Su Xiao's reply was very straightforward, causing Calluto Zoldick to frown.
— Who would put poison in their food anyway...
— Give our guest another meal, " Silva said, and the two maids immediately entered the living room and changed the dishes in front of Su Xiao.
The food was really poisoned, and it was Silva who arranged it.
— She really... was poisoned... " muttered Calluto, lowering his head and eating in silence.
— Previously, you were an uninvited guest, but now you are our customer, " Silva's voice was a little cold. That was his character. He was a serious, old-fashioned and very traditional killer.
— I don't have an appetite anyway. When can I see Maha Zoldik? Su Xiao asked. He wouldn't touch any of the family's food. She was considered the best at killing, so she was obviously very good at using poisons as well.
— In about two hours, I think you're back... Do you want to challenge someone very strong? Zeno Zoldick asked.
— This will eventually become clear, so I'll tell you about my goal right now. I want to fight Maha because I want to see how long I can last in a fight with him.
— Are you going to challenge the chairman of the Hunter Association? Zeno Zoldick's eyes twinkled oddly. He wanted to know if there was anything more dangerous hidden in this case.
— Something stronger.
— You're crazy?
— Fighting someone at this level of strength is pure madness.
— … — Zeno Zoldick shook his head in silence. His thinking was completely different from Su Xiao's. "Can you tell me more?" If not, then ignore it.
— Do you remember what happened at the Yorshin auction? Su Xiao asked. He was referring to the Nirapan tribe that had laid siege to the auction house.
These creatures came from the Dark Continent.
— I remember a lot of things happening back then. If I understand correctly, there are even beings from the Dark Continent who have shown up, " Zeno Zoldick replied, clearly intending to exchange useful information.
— Not long ago, a group of strange creatures appeared near East Goruto. They hunted people, pets, and so on.
— East Goruto? The same totalitarian communist country? Calluto Zoldik said and gritted his teeth, his expression not very pretty.
— About? Have you ever been to this country, Calluto?" Zeno Zoldick asked, and motioned for him to continue.
— Once. The president of this country... He was very annoying.
He didn't really want to talk about it because of the fact that he had almost killed him at the time.
Hearing Calluto's words, Bubtni's eyes lit up and clearly wanted to say, " Go on, I'm very interested in this story».
— In other words, the creature that appeared in East Goruto is so strong that you decided to come to my grandfather and fight him, see if you can resist this creature? Zeno Zoldick asked, taking all the clues into account.
— Right.
There was no need to hide the situation in East Goruto. Judging by the time, a nest of ants with one legion had already been formed there.
Su Xiao had no intention of visiting East Goruto right now due to the fact that the current chimera ants were too weak, so weak that he would be able to destroy their nest alone.
Even if three Ant King guards had already appeared there, they wouldn't be able to stop Su Xiao. In a one-on-three battle, they would have made him uncomfortable, but once Bubtni and Amu got involved, the three of them would fall in a matter of minutes.
But in any case, it was useless for him to bother the chimera ants right now, and through the contractor communication platform, Su Xiao found out that some contractors had formed groups to protect the ants ' nest.
If the Ant King is unable to be born, the main missions in the form of obtaining his heart will be considered failed. Yes, in this case, penalties in the form of execution will not be applied to contractors, but everything received during their stay in this world will be withdrawn as a fine..
Yes, relatively weak contractors could only pray for their luck, but the task of obtaining the Ant King's heart had a loophole. The quest didn't specify that it was necessary to obtain a whole heart, which meant that a piece of the Ant King's heart would be enough to complete this quest.
Su Xiao had already received similar tasks in the past, and he could tell in advance that the final reward depended on the size of the completed heart.
The contractor who gets the Ant King's heart will get rich, and everyone else will either have to pay for a part of the heart or go to the next world.
It was a real survival game. The strong got everything, while the weak could only wait for their death. The Reincarnator's Paradise was not a charitable organization. Only those who possessed any abilities could survive here.
With all this in mind, the Ant King's heart will make many contractors go crazy.
— Apparently, something big is about to happen, but it has nothing to do with the Zoldick family, " Zeno said.
— Looks like... It does, " Illumi, who had been silent before, said suddenly.
— How? Mr. Zeno's smile faded a little.
— Killua is near East Goruto, to be precise, on the border.
Hearing this, Zeno's smile completely disappeared.
— This is really not very good news, Killua needs to grow up, he is not able to withstand such an enemy yet.
Zeno Zoldick actually misunderstood the whole situation. He reckoned that due to the lack of sufficient strength, Su Xiao decided not to try his luck in East Goruto and decided to turn to Maha Zoldik.
— Illumi, go get some water....
— Father, " Silva suddenly interrupted Zeno. — I promised Killua that we wouldn't interfere with his decision again.
Zeno Zoldick narrowed his eyes, considered, and finally sighed. "Forget it.
— Father! Kikyo, Silva's wife, exclaimed as she entered the living room.
She was a beautiful woman, but her appearance was slightly marred by her interactive helmet. "How can we, Killua?...
To her, Killua was her heart and soul, in fact, her motherly love for Killua was a bit distorted and abnormal in places.
— Shut up, " Silva said in a calm tone, and his wife immediately fell silent, even though she clearly had a lot to say.
Su Xiao was silent.
It was interesting for him to watch this family.
