Hunter Queen: Killer Queen

Chapter 153 Final Preparations×Kurapika

The gold-rimmed glasses have been put on by Joey again, and the decent suit, elegant hairstyle, and cold face with a little make-up make it difficult for people to recognize his original identity, but at the same time, they can also see that he has an extraordinary background.

The design drawing of the B.W number is considered a secret in Cajin, but it is not very difficult to obtain.

What's more, just by walking around the shipyard and spending some money, you can easily find out the relationship and layout of the various floors of the B.W.

On the third day after arriving in Cajun, Joey figured out the entire situation inside the B.W.

The B.W number is divided into five floors. The first floor is for the royal family and V5's political and financial dignitaries, the second floor is for celebrities and rich people from all walks of life, and the third floor and below is the general public area.

The passages between each level will be completely controlled by the king's army after the voyage begins, and will be guarded in accordance with martial law.

Especially as you can see from the drawings, there is a very thick wall partition between the second and third floors.

Even in a very urgent moment, the partition can only be opened from the second floor. In other words, from the beginning, Cajun has completely separated the classes of everyone who boarded the ship.

According to the information Joey got from the comics, the Kajin princes will have a private succession battle on the ship.

In other words, the first and second floors will completely become battlefields for wars between princes soon after setting off.

Especially the first floor, which is where the princes live. Whether it is intelligence warfare, frontal fighting, or even the so-called "spiritual beasts" that Prince Cajin obtained during the Egg in the Pot ritual, all will break out on the first floor.

So the first floor is also the predictably most dangerous place on the ship.

Joey's goal was on the second floor, which was just right for his status.

This is not because he wants to get involved in the succession war, but the first and second floors are battlefields, which does not mean that the lower floors are safe.

Whether it's the tense atmosphere in Cajun, or Joey's understanding of the Cajun gang, or even his understanding from the comics, he knows one thing, that is, there are not only gangs at the lower level, but also the Phantom Troupe, Hisoka, and Il Fans, even Biyang De’s team!

What's more, the succession war will gradually spread to the gang wars at the lower levels, and the lower levels will also be in chaos.

Especially if he remembered correctly, Cajun King Nasby Gray Guoru planned to use the entire ship of 200,000 people as sacrifices in the Succession War. It was really impossible to estimate how many people would die by then. .

So in Joey's opinion, the best place is the second floor of B.W.

When the time comes, he only needs to follow the association's footsteps. He really doesn't believe that Ka Jin can play with all the ability users on the ship.

His goal is just to follow Kajin's ship and reach the imaginary continent safely!

After all, the purpose of the B.W was not the Dark Continent from the beginning.

Instead, he went to the imaginary continent prepared by V5 for him. This was the extreme position that the Cajin people could reach after V5 compromised.

There is still some distance from the Dark Continent, but it is a complete new continent.

There are a lot of things from the Dark Continent there, but they are not as dangerous as the Dark Continent. They can satisfy some of the fantasies of explorers, speculators, and political and financial figures without really touching the interests of V5.

It can be said to be the most suitable place for deceiving people!

And arriving there is also the beginning of another screening. Only the real elite will know that it is not the real dark continent, but just the "imaginary continent" an outpost of the dark continent.

From there, there are only three ways to reach the Dark Continent.

One is to obtain subsequent ferry permission from there, and the other is to join the Hunters Association.

Because V5 cannot deceive Biyang De. Biyang De is really going to the Dark Continent and has obtained permission from V5. For this reason, the Hunter Association is monitoring Biyang De's existence.

It was just said to be surveillance, but judging from the current situation, it seemed more like protecting Biyang De.

In other words, he was escorting Byande to the Dark Continent.

And once they arrive in the Dark Continent, it is very likely that the association will have to rely on Biyang De. After all, he is the one who actually set foot in the Dark Continent and successfully came back alive.

He holds many secrets of the Dark Continent in his hands, even these secrets that V5 has not been able to explore over the years.

As for the last method, it is also very simple, that is, smuggling from the imaginary continent to the farther dark continent based on their own abilities.

There are huge risks involved, but it's not impossible.

At the same time, this is also the only way to go to the Dark Continent for most people on the ship who have not joined the association and want to go to the Dark Continent.

After all, the first method of obtaining permission from the ferry bureau is nonsense.

The Ferry Administration will not allow anyone other than Byande and the Association to travel to the Dark Continent.

The only option Joey had was to sneak across. He didn't have a clear idea of ​​how to do it yet.

After all, he still knows one thing, that is, if he wants to truly go to the Dark Continent, he still needs to cross a door, a door to the Dark Continent guarded by a gatekeeper.

But specifically, Joey didn't know.

After all, whether it is information about the door or intelligence on the imaginary continent, there is too little that can be investigated.

But since getting on the line with Jin and Jaeger, Joey no longer has too much worry about reaching the Dark Continent, especially Jaeger's existence, which gives him a sense of stability.

After all, Jaeger was also a person who had been to the Dark Continent.

And judging from the determination of Jin and others, he always felt that it might not be as difficult as imagined to go from the imaginary continent to the dark continent.

With his goal in mind, Joey began to contact various businessmen in Cajun and began to show off his wealth.

Although he doesn't have much money himself, if he has a few billion, he can be considered a small rich man in Cajin.

It is not difficult for such people to spend some money and get a boat ticket.

You must know that there are hundreds of thousands of ferry tickets on sale this time. Although the second-tier tickets require some purchase thresholds, Joey is not idle in Cajin these days.

It is not difficult to use his ability to secretly investigate some high-ranking people in Cajun, get close to them, and make them have a good impression of them.

But not all the rich people in Cajin are ready to follow the king to leave Cajin and go to the unknown dark continent.

Therefore, it is not a problem to buy the ferry ticket from the other party at a high price.

After getting the ticket, Joey's focus changed from the B.W to the problems of various princes and gangs in Cajun.

In July, several princes in Cajin posted recruitment information online to recruit guards.

The specific job is to protect the prince's personal safety during the ferry voyage and eliminate dangerous factors.

Joey had no idea about this, but what surprised Joey was that not long after this piece of information appeared, he received a call from Milton.

"You asked me to protect the prince?" Joey wondered if he heard correctly: "I am not a hunter. Even if this recruitment can finally add me to it, it will not arrange important tasks for me."

Joey did not refuse directly, but tried to reason with Milton.

However, he felt that if Milton made this call to him, he should have a solution.

"I hope to communicate with you in person about the specific situation." Milton insisted.

"Okay." Joey raised his watch and took a look: "In three days, I will return to the association headquarters. Are you there? You can come to my house to talk then."

After hanging up the phone, Joey couldn't help but think a lot.

After all, this may lead him to join the succession war on the first floor, which is not a good choice. If it does not impress his interests, he is not prepared to participate in it.

The risk was too great and the benefit was none for him.

With this in mind, Joey returned home three days later.

It was hard for Joey to refuse Milton's call. After all, he had helped Joey a lot, and he was also curious about Kurapika.

Besides, the investigation of the prince does not necessarily require staying in Cajin. When the Hunter Association should borrow its power, it still needs to borrow some.

Even if he can't borrow it, using the authority of a professional hunter will save him a lot of time.

And he has professional hunter Pang Mu at home. When the time comes, he can use her authority to look up some information and continue the investigation when he returns to Cajin, which will save him a lot of time.

On the afternoon of Joey's return, Milton and Kurapika came to his villa together.

After more than half a year, the big villa was finally able to be occupied and entertained guests.

Even though Pam was still the only one responsible for cooking, this made Joey feel a little embarrassed. It wasn't like he didn't have money, so he could still afford to hire maids.

After returning from the Dark Continent, let Pang Mu rest, preferably on a trip or something.

Milleston was still wearing the same "cow suit," but judging from the cleanliness, Joey felt that he should have several of the same clothes.

Kurapika looked a little serious, and he was wearing a black suit, which made him look very elegant.

"Okay." Joey nodded politely, without making any overstepping gesture of shaking hands.

People with abilities don't like this, otherwise they won't even know if they are plotted one day.

"Hello, excuse me." Kurapika was very polite and even brought a gift: "I heard from Killua that your place has just been built."

"I'm interested." Joey reached out and took the gift. He didn't have too many taboos.

After all, when he decided to meet with Kurapika, he read the information about Kurapika's abilities that he had compiled several times.

Although there will be some discrepancies, generally Joey has an impression.

Moreover, what is truly feared about Kurapika has never been his ability, but his super clear mind.

Like Kate, he belongs to the materialization system, and like Kate, he has super insight.

It can be heard from Kurapika's words that he deliberately gave out information to get closer to Joey.

Obviously, Kurapika should have a certain understanding of his abilities. This understanding does not refer to [Weather Forecast], but [Golden Experience].

Because only the golden experience ability can create enough value for them on the ship.

Mo Laowu originally wanted to recruit him into the ocean group because of the powerful characteristics of his golden experience ability.

Whether it's intelligence stealing or healing ability, it can be regarded as a first-class ability. This is the greatest value of Joey's boarding.

It was also the key to why Mo Laowu, Milton and others came to fight for him.

Joey has known this for a long time. After all, no one knows the value of golden experience better than him.

It was just that he couldn't tell whether Kurapika got the information from Killua or from Milton.

If it was from Killua, he would have to think carefully about his relationship with Killua.

But he felt that Killua would most likely not reveal his information, because Killua was not an impolite person.

Then the intelligence leak might have come from Milton!

Thinking this, Joey looked at Milton.

"Don't look at me like that. Your ability is not a special secret in the association's records."

Mildredstone instantly judged Joey's thoughts and explained: "When I was at ngl, President Nitro once compiled a piece of information and gave it to the bean-faced man to collect in the association's files. Although it is confidential information, in this special situation, confidential information is not so confidential.”

"So what was mentioned in that intelligence?" Joey frowned.

Milton didn't say much, and directly took out a document from his arms and handed it to Joey.

Joey looked at the records in the file and was speechless, because there was only one ability recorded in it.

【Golden Experience】

Ability to animate objects and make them obedient creatures, as well as create body components.

Specialized in treatment and intelligence stealing.

——Isaac Nitro.

If it was just like this, Joey wouldn't be too depressed.

What really depressed him was another line of text below: Please use him to your heart's content on the way to the Dark Continent!

"Old monster." Joey muttered softly.

Obviously, President Nitro had already anticipated various situations before his death and made corresponding arrangements.

Joey knew very well that when he was exposed to Nitro, Kate should have told Nitro all about his situation.

This includes not only Ming's affairs, but also his abilities, the existence of Killer Queen, and his subsequent ability to create, the golden experience.

But in this document, there is only the gold experience ability.

At the same time, Joey learned from Jaeger, and Nitro specifically told Jaeger that he was the one who survived Ming's attack and swallowed the soul of the weapon.

In other words, Nitro had already calculated Joey's future from the moment he got to know him.

Is this the wisdom and calculation of an old man who has lived for hundreds of years? Joey couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart.

But what is Nitro's purpose of helping him like this?

The appearance of Jaeger gave Joey the possibility of assassinating the gold and silver ingots. If the association came to him, it would obviously mean to solve all the problems for him in going to the Dark Continent.

After all, just by exposing his golden experience ability, Joey can become a popular member of the ship's association's medical team and intelligence team.

Milton's subsequent words also proved Joey's conjecture.

"I hope you can assist Kurapika on the first floor. Your ability in monitoring is very beneficial to this operation." Mildstone did not hide anything.

"Why join the prince's guard?" Joey asked another question.

Compared to the Guard, if you join the association's team, your security may be higher.

"Because there are insiders in the association, it is difficult to hide your identity when you join the association team." Kurapika took over the conversation: "I still have some connections and abilities in the underworld, and I can arrange a clean new identity for you.

Joining the prince's guard in this new capacity should be more than enough with your abilities. "

"Is it really appropriate to tell me that there is a mole in the association?" Joey looked at Kurapika helplessly.

The other party was so sincere that he felt flattered for a moment.

"Gon and Killua both trust you, so I choose to trust you too."

Kurapika gave an answer that Joey didn't expect.

Joey's expression became serious: "So, what can I get from this cooperation?"

If the risks were not proportional to the benefits, Joey would still not accept the task, but he had already made a judgment in his mind.

"You have the qualifications to reach the Dark Continent, and you still have money." Kurapika pushed out a card.

Joey looked at the card and was a little confused: "You really have pinched my lifeline. Very good, so what is the new identity? How many princes should I apply for as a guard?"

“There is only one month left before the B.W sets sail.

Those who will issue a commission at this time will not be powerful beings like the first and fourth princes, but only those with insufficient strength among the princes.

And among all the princes, there are not just one or two who lack strength.

But because princes send out commissions completely anonymously, you only need to randomly become a prince's guard. Then a companion will contact you secretly. Of course, it would be best if you can be assigned with me. "Kurapika was obviously prepared.

"Do I need to meet the other five people in advance?" Joey asked again.

He also knew what Kurapika said about the weak prince. He had stayed in Kajin for several months, so it was impossible to hide this information from him.

Even during this period, he sorted out the relationships between Cajun princes, princesses, gangsters, illegitimate children, etc.

Among them, most of the princes who met the judgment were princes at the bottom of the ranking, but there were also some princes who did not receive much help from their mothers, or even whose mothers had no abilities in the first place.

Although Joey couldn't remember exactly which princes chose the commission, the fourteenth prince among them was the one Kurapika would contact.

Except for the infant Fourteenth Prince, the Twelfth and Thirteenth Princes are also not very old, and their mothers, like the Fourteenth Prince's mother, have little energy.

Secondly, the eighth prince, the tenth prince and the eleventh prince are the ones who clearly have no desire for the throne.

Their goal in the succession war is to save their lives, but the eighth prince is a complete pervert and has nothing else in his mind except lust, so he can be excluded.

Then one or two others should be born among the sixth prince, seventh prince and ninth prince.

As for the five princes and others further ahead, they all have their own private soldiers, supporters and collaborators, so there is no need to recruit outsiders to become guards.

"If possible, they will arrive at the headquarters in two days." Kurapika thought for a moment, then nodded.
