Level up in HxH - Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Fishing?

Along the sewer, Rocky came to a wall with two doors.

The door on the left says “You need the quickest response.” The door on the right says “You need the best patience.”

Without thinking much, Rocky pushed open the door on the left and walked in.

“PIN bell PIN bell~~” After pushing the door and entering, there is a long and narrow passage, and only the crisp collision sound of iron can be heard in the distance.

“That’s…” There seemed to be something in the black shadow in the distance approaching at high speed.

Since fighting a little bit with Hisoka consumed too much, he didn’t use Gyo.

“Iron hammer!” Rocky barely reacted and fell backwards. The hammer, which was suspended by the chain and was larger than Rocky, slashed past Rocky’s face. The strong wind pulled Rocky away, and aching slightly.

Rocky, who avoided the hammer, turned around and saw that the hammer did not stop. Instead, it smashed the door and the wall behind Rocky, and then swung far away and disappeared from Rocky’s sight.

“If this hammer hits me, it would definitely hurt alot.” Rocky felt a slight chill on his back.

On the way, Rocky passed two boring choice rooms and finally arrived at the rest room for the first time.

Entering the rest room, Rocky looked around. There were bookshelves, tables, food, water and other daily necessities in the room. In addition, there was a monitor hanging in the top corner of the room.

“The rest period is eight hours. After that, ten hours will be deducted for every five minutes exceeded. Your remaining time is 65 hours.” A voice came from the monitor.

“Let’s set off in five hours. Let’s rest and regain our strength first. By the way, I’ll bandage my left hand…” Rocky ate some food, found some gauze and bandaged his left hand briefly, then fell asleep on the sofa.

…

Five hours later, Rocky woke up, and first thing he did was to open his panel.

Rocky found that he earned lots of points from fighting Hisoka. Even if he didn’t even land a single punch on him.

After all, difference in level is just too much.

Rocky first thought for a second, and first decided to level up his basic level.

[Level up]

[Level up]

Which consumed him 253 points, and Rocky left with 111 points.

After thinking for a while, Rocky choose to level up Enhancement Type Nen level, because it will help him increase his raw power by 3x times, instead of 2x times.

As for the rest of ’10’ points, Rocky use these points to level up Transmutation Nen Type.

Now his level has reached Killua Zoldyck, but his overall power is higher than Killua.

After feeling the change in his body, Rocky pushed the door open and continued towards the ground. At a corner intersection, Rocky found running water again, but the water here was much deeper than before. It was estimated to be four or five meters deep, so Rocky Moved slightly against the wall and followed.

He followed until he reached a door, water flowed under the door, and Rocky pushed the door open and went in.

“Little devil, welcome to my challenge room, you can only move forward if you beat me.” A fat man wearing a prison uniform with a sinewy face was looking at Rocky with disdain.

“What is the challenge?”

“Fishing, as long as you can catch more than me, you can pass here!” The big fat man took out two fishing rods from the corner and swung one of them towards Rocky.

“Fishing?” Rocky took the fishing rod and looked at it, then looked at the sewer water running across the house.

“Don’t worry, I haven’t touched the fishing rod or the water. It’s absolutely fair to both of us.” The fat man looked at Rocky with a smile.

Rocky came to the water with a puzzled look on his face, squatted down and looked at it carefully. Although this was the sewer water from the Trick Tower, it was actually extremely clear, without any debris, including fish.

Therefore, Rocky was very confused when he heard about the fishing competition, because when he came, Rocky had already observed the water in the sewer, and there was no way there were fish.

At the same time, the big fat man whistled and pretended to sit next to him, threw the hook into the water, closed his eyes and started fishing.

“As long as I hold you here, as many hours as I spend on you, I can get sentence reduction. Just wait for the time to end, kid.” The big fat man made a plan in his mind.

“Fishing in fishless water is obviously looking for trouble with me…” Rocky glanced at the big fat man and put his hands on his hands to think.

A few minutes later, Rocky put down his hand and shouted to the big fat man with a confused look on his face: “Hey fat man.”

“What are you doing, brat?” The man seemed to hate this title and stared at Rocky.

“Fish, what is it?” Rocky asked.

“Hahahaha, I see you, a country bumpkin, have been thinking about this for a long time?” The fat man laughed, and the fat all over his body rolled like waves.

“Well, can you tell me what exactly a fish is?”

“A fish is an animal that swims in the water and is also a kind of food.” The fat man said proudly.

“Oh.” Rocky nodded thoughtfully, then kicked the big fat man, “Plop.” He fell into the water with a sound.

“In this way, you are also a fish.” Rocky squatted on the shore and looked at the big fat man who kept splashing in the water.

“Bastard, am I a fish? Your whole family is a fish!” The big fat man roared at Rocky.

“You can swim in the water and eat, so you meet these conditions,” Rocky said sarcastically.

“Can you still eat me?” The big fat man showed no sign of weakness.

“That’s what you said, don’t go back on it.” Rocky gathered together and grabbed the big fat man’s neck, lifting him out of the water with one hand.

“Where should we start?” Rocky took out the knife he had just brought out in the lounge and wanted to use it for self-defense from his pocket, and made a gesture on the big fat man’s face.

“Wait… you win, you win.” The big fat man’s face turned red, and he kept trying to pry Rocky’s hand away with both hands, but found that Rocky’s left hand was like an iron pliers, which was difficult to shake.

“What?” Rocky pretended not to hear.

“I said I was a fish. Now you have caught me. You win.” The big fat man struggled and looked at Rocky in horror.

“If you admit it earlier, it will be over.” Rocky let go of his hand, and the big fat man fell into the water again. The stone door next to it is also slowly opening.

…

In the venue on the first floor, Hisoka was sitting alone on the floor playing cards in boredom.

“Finally someone is here.” Hisoka noticed that a stone door was slowly opening.

“What’s going on? Is the door broken?” Hisoka tilted his head and looked at the stone door that should have been opened and suddenly stopped.

Behind the stone door, it was Rocky who was firmly resisting the stone door and preventing it from opening.

Originally, Rocky had successfully passed all the traps and was happily preparing to return to the venue on the ground. However, he found that Hisoka was the only one in the venue, so he immediately subconsciously blocked the stone door.

“Ahhh… it’s okay if there are others around, but if Hisoka and I are left alone, nothing good will happen.” Rocky sat down against the stone door and muttered to himself.

In fact, Rocky is not afraid of Hisoka, but because Rocky is not good at dealing with people like Hisoka.

It would be okay if he was weaker, but a beating would be enough. But Hisoka is far more powerful than Rocky now. It can be said that everything in front of Hisoka makes Rocky very uncomfortable.

Just when Rocky was about to stay here until others arrived, Hisoka’s head poked through the crack of the door.

Hisoka’s body blocked the light, and his shadow fell on Rocky.

Rocky looked at the shadow on his body and turned away stiffly. It was Hisoka: “Hahaha, hello.”

“Hello, Rocky, let’s play a game.” Hisoka smiled.

“Tsk, the worst is to fight again. When I become stronger, I will return all these to you.” Rocky made up his mind and stood up.

…

Afterwards, Rocky came out of the stone gate and played poker with Hisoka. As a result, Rocky kept losing for the next twenty hours.

Just because Hisoka has been cheating with Texture Surprise during the twenty hours of the game, and Rocky has not been able to correct him, this makes Rocky itching with hatred…

Luckily with every defeat, he earn 1 EXP.

In 20 Hours, he played exactly 1732 Games, and earned 1732 EXP.

Just based on this, Rocky also feeling happier.

He can use these EXP to level up alot. But he didn’t do it in front of Hisoka, and just kept holding the points.

At twenty hours and one minute, the third passer appeared at the ground venue.
