Chapter 872 - Chapter 872 The Enthusiastic Citizen, Mr. Ging

When Moses heard what Ging said, a question mark suddenly popped up in his head, and he asked curiously: "Do you think I am someone who would do such a thing?"

"It's not about what I think. It's just that you look like you're in a hurry to handle something right now."

Ging drooped his eyelids as he explained.

Moses was stunned. He felt that there was nothing wrong with this statement.

He was indeed in a hurry to take care of something, but it wasn't about dealing with Beyond alone, but to deal with the bounty in the underworld.

'But was it really that obvious?'

Moses suppressed his doubts and nodded to Ging: "I do have something to deal with as soon as possible, but it has nothing to do with Beyond."

"Oh?"

Ging raised an eyebrow slightly, 'At a time like this, was there really something more important?'

He wanted to ask more, but then he heard Moses continue: "Though… the idea of taking on Beyond alone does sound worth trying."

"Then I should probably remind you."

Hearing this, Ging pointed at the ground at Moses's feet and said seriously, "You can't use the ability to exchange positions with your shadow now, and the effect of Teleportation Divine Script, strictly speaking, still has plenty of weaknesses."

"That makes sense. I'll consider it carefully."

Moses rolled his eyes, then turned around and continued walking towards the hotel.

When he mentioned the idea of going to the Kakin Empire alone to deal with Beyond, Moses suddenly thought of the [Texture Surprise Cornerstone] he got from Hisoka. Naturally, a certain idea came to mind.

In theory, he could use the [Texture Surprise Cornerstone] on top of the [Memory Capacity +1] he had recently acquired.

That would allow him to easily replicate Hisoka's Nen Ability, and even make some improvements and changes based on it.

What Moses had in mind was using it for disguises, such as creating lifelike masks, then supplemented it with skills like bone-contraction techniques.

However, even with disguise techniques, the best he could do was infiltrate deep into Kakin Empire's territory.

After that, he will eventually have to face Beyond and his team, and also have to consider the military forces of the Kakin Empire that may surge in from all directions at any time.

It would be extremely difficult and risky.

Moses wasn't that overconfident.

If he wanted to really ensure Beyond's death, the most crucial factor was the geographical location.

If Moses could secure a one-on-one fight in an isolated space, he has the absolute confidence in defeating Beyond.

Ging watched as Moses turned and walked away without hesitation. After a moment's thought, he followed.

"Do you need help with that urgent matter you mentioned?"

Ging asked casually as he walked quickly to Moses's side.

Moses tilted his head to glance at Ging and asked, "Are you that free to help me?"

"If I didn't have time, would I be asking this?"

Ging shot back with another question.

Moses nodded slightly and smiled: "That's great, then."

About an hour later...

Ging was sitting on an airship that had just taken off.

Through the window, he could still vaguely make out the cityscape of Swardani City.

As for why he was on this airship...

It was because he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

Swardani City, Luxury Hotel Suite.

Moses sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Menchi to prepare food while he sent a message to Hisoka to check on things.

At this point, he was no longer in a rush to deal with the bounty in the underworld.

Because the enthusiastic citizen, Mr. Ging, had volunteered to handle it for him.

"It's really a great help."

Moyou put away his phone and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If the bounty order of the underground world can be resolved by brute force alone, it would just be a matter of making a trip and would not be difficult to handle.

But the problem was that this method was incredibly time-consuming.

Compared to that, a more efficient approach was necessary.

And since Ging came to him on his own initiative, how could Moses let the opportunity slip?

In his opinion, with Ging's abilities and means, he would definitely be able to help him solve this problem perfectly.

'I should find time today to work on [Texture Surprise]. If possible, I can even enhance its adhesive properties a little...'

Moses mulled over the idea in his mind.

On the sofa not far away, Biscuit was leisurely flipping through the latest issue of Dandy magazine, while Shizuku was fiddling with the tableware at the dining table. Hawk was playing with Rat Jewel on the balcony.

Moses glanced at them briefly, then looked towards the kitchen, where tempting aromas kept wafting from, quietly savoring this rare moment of relaxation.

A short while later-

Biscuit set down the magazine with satisfaction.

Hearing the movement, Moses looked over and suddenly asked, "Sister, have you reconsidered joining the Zodiacs?"

"I'm really not interested."

Biscuit shook her head, gently smoothing out a few creases on the magazine's cover before carefully placing it aside.

After neatly arranging it, she looked up at Moses, who showed a slightly disappointed expression, and said:

"Even if I don't take a Zodiacs' position, I'll still show up when you need help. So whether I'm in the Zodiacs or not doesn't really matter, right?"

"…"

Moses was speechless when he heard this.

Shizuku walked over from the dining table and asked curiously, "Are the requirements for becoming a Zodiacs really strict? Could I join?"

"Silly goose, you don't even have a Hunter License. How could you join?"

Menchi, who had just stepped out of the kitchen carrying a dish, couldn't help but cast a speechless look at Shizuku.

"Oh right, I haven't gotten my Hunter License yet."

Shizuku showed a look of realization.

Moses chuckled when he saw this.

Three days had passed since the Kakin Empire announced its plan to march into the Dark Continent.

In those three days, countless people had flooded Kakin Empire's offices with calls.

It can be said that if Kakin Empire had not limited the selection to 200,000 people, the number of people who wanted to go to the Dark Continent would have easily surpassed millions, maybe even tens or hundreds of millions.

Because for the general public, traveling to the New World wasn't just about striking it rich, but also for taking a step ahead, hoping to gain a foothold in the New World and then take the important step of 'immigration'.

That's right-

The reason why so many people want to go to the Dark Continent is to move there permanently.

This alone showed just how little the average person understood about the Dark Continent.

Under this trend, in order to prevent the public from uncovering more information, V5 had no choice but to leverage media and television to 'popularize' carefully curated half-truths about the Dark Continent to the public who are paying close attention to this matter.

For example-

On a popular interview program, a renowned professor attributed the various casualties and risks encountered by humans in exploring the Dark Continent to unknown bacteria and viruses.

And he confidently asserted that modern medical technology could handle these potential threats.

Both the V5 and Kakin Empire were working in tandem to manipulate public perception...

Beyond that-

Just as Moses had predicted, V5 was preparing to abandon the research efforts in favor of prioritizing containment of the existing Calamities under their control.

At the same time, they were searching for ways to counter this 'gold rush fever'.

Clearly-

Just killing Beyond wouldn't be enough.
