“Hehehe…”
Ten minutes later, Gastly floated lazily in the air, its eyes slightly squinted; after eating its fill, it didn’t want to move.
“Can’t eat any more? Still, that was very impressive.” Lynn glanced at the antiques on the table and encouraged it.
Gastly had picked the crown with the heaviest Death Nen right from the start, and in just over ten minutes, the Death Nen on it had visibly faded a little.
“Hehehe!” Gastly’s tone was high-spirited; it was very confident in itself.
According to it, it would only take half a month to clear the Death Nen from the crown, and the other two items would take about a week each, totaling one month.
This efficiency should be considered quite good, after all, one had to consider that Gastly was just a newborn “Pokémon.”
Once it grew a bit more, for example, evolving into Haunter, or even Gengar, its ability to devour Death Nen would be even stronger.
However…
Lynn started to mutter to himself.
In the games, for Haunter to evolve into Gengar, it requires [Trade Evolution] or a [Linking Cord], which isn’t easy to obtain.
But it might not follow game rules; in the Pokémon anime, there were wild Gengar, so perhaps if Gastly ate more Death Nen and accumulated enough energy, it would be able to evolve into Gengar.
From now on, these three antiques had another identity—Gastly’s rations.
Just then, a servant came to report, and Capone immediately relayed: “The cuisine has been prepared, shall we dine now?”
“Let’s start now.” Lynn was already eager to dig in.
Ever since returning to Yorknew, Lynn had asked Capone to find a famous chef to cook the Gala Gator meat.
Now, he could finally enjoy the gourmet food.
Dining room.
A rectangular dining table was covered with a pristine white tablecloth.
The long table was set with a variety of delicious dishes, each with perfect color, aroma, and taste, while silverware was neatly arranged at the head of the table and on both sides.
Clearly, this was lunch prepared for the three of them.
Lynn sat at the head of the table, with Chopper to his front left and Capone to his front right.
“What a fragrant scent~” Chopper’s little nose twitched; the rich, Attract aroma of meat drilled into his nostrils, lingering for a long time, and an expression of intoxication appeared on his face involuntarily.
“It is indeed a very formidable gourmet dish.”
Capone Bege also nodded repeatedly, praising it from the bottom of his heart.
Even just sitting here, his mouth was uncontrollably secreting saliva.
The scent emitted after cooking alone was irresistible, and when this gourmet food was placed in front of people, all other distracting thoughts were eliminated, leaving only the desire to eat it.
On the surface of the steak, the marbling fat shimmered, just like stars twinkling in the night sky.
“Let’s eat.” As soon as Lynn finished speaking, he cut a piece of meat from his plate and popped it into his mouth.
The steak was incredibly chewy; the moment it entered his mouth, his mouth couldn’t help but start chewing, and the mellow, rich meat juices immediately gushed out like an endless flood.
The delicious meat juices flowed down his throat, reaching his stomach, still emitting warmth, as waves of heat surged through his limbs and bones.
For a moment, the dining room was exceptionally quiet, with only the continuous sound of chewing…
In the face of such gourmet food, even the thought of talking was abandoned.
The steaks on the three people’s plates gradually diminished, and before they knew it, they only came back to their senses after finishing the meat, at which point they were already full, and the other side dishes could no longer stir their appetite.
“My cheeks feel like they’re melting~” Chopper said in a daze.
This was definitely the most delicious thing he had ever eaten in his life.
“As expected of special ingredients; not only is it extremely delicious, but the feedback it provides is also obvious.” Lynn exclaimed.
He used [Gyo], and pinched the muscle on his left arm with his right thumb and index finger; it seemed a bit firmer, and even his Nen had slightly condensed.
Sure enough, even without Gourmet Cells, consuming food from the Toriko world still had a certain boosting effect.
For this meal, the three of them only ate one-third of the total amount; in other words, they could still eat two more meals.
After eating, Lynn didn’t intend to waste this opportunity; he decided to strike while the iron was hot and continue his training in [Nen], focusing mainly on two points.
First, increasing the total amount of Nen, which mainly relied on [Ren] from the Four Major Principles.
Second, learning and mastering Advanced application techniques; after the previous battle in the Ice and Snow Labyrinth, he realized even more the importance of high-end skills.
Currently, he only knew [Gyo] and [Ken], which was far from enough; he needed to strive to master all Advanced skills as soon as possible.
Considering maximizing utilization efficiency, Lynn decided to eat one meal every other day, meaning he would finish the Gala Gator meat over six days.
Finally, after finishing lunch on the last day, Lynn achieved the Breakthrough he had wished for!
In the hall, Lynn closed his eyes, standing tall in his training robe, while invisible, pure Nen surged over his body. This chapter is updated first at g.com.
A strong gale blew, causing his wide training robe to flap loudly.
After the accumulated Aura reached its Peak, it receded.
Lynn opened his eyes, a flash of brilliance passing through them.
Through this period of growth, his total Nen and control over techniques had reached a new stage; even without using card abilities, he had roughly B-rank strength.
Counting [Six Powers] and [Ice Make Magic], his status panel clearly indicated he had B-rank strength!
At the same time, Chopper also progressed to B-rank.
As for Capone, since he was already B-rank, he hadn’t broken through yet, but he was getting closer and closer to B+, and promotion was only a matter of time.
“Finally, I’m B-rank.” Lynn raised his right arm, clenched his palm tightly, causing a cracking sound, and his joy was impossible to conceal.
Every bit of improvement in his current strength added to the hope of his plan’s success.
After a series of tests, he made plans for his next step…
He changed his mind and decided to participate in this Hunter Exam!
But strictly speaking, it wouldn’t be him participating personally, but rather him controlling the [Clone Puppet] to complete the exam.
This solved the potential danger from Hisoka.
The Clone Puppet was identical to him in every aspect; even if it were killed, it would only mean the loss of an item.
Even with the [Substitute Straw Doll], he didn’t intend to risk himself; if he couldn’t beat the opponent, having a few extra lives wouldn’t be enough.
Besides that, he had an even better idea; if circumstances allowed, he would even change his goal from “avoiding Hisoka and passing the exam” to “giving up the exam and hunting Hisoka!”
And the key point of this plan hadn’t been implemented yet; it depended on whether Capone could deliver.
Before long, footsteps echoed in the hallway outside.
Capone walked in, smiling as he lifted the leather suitcase in his hand, as if deliberately showing it off: “The item has been acquired!”
Finally got it!
Lynn immediately went with Capone to a specialized experimental area, and as Capone crouched down and opened the suitcase, a unique bomb came into view.
And this was the most crucial part of Lynn’s plan to hunt Hisoka.
