Chapter 25: Anorexic Appetite

Chapter 25 "The Appetite of the Anorexic"

If we talk about thousands of years.

This vast world has accommodated countless countries.

And each country represents a completely different civilization.

They are like bright and different flowers, blooming and competing in the long river of history, and then withering one after another in the cruel and long campaign, and then buried underground to become unknown relics and tombs.

Only those who have kissed the earth...

can understand how precious these historical relics are.

Hawke is a person who is keen on exploring relics or tombs.

For this reason, he has also developed the ability of "rats have rat paths" that can move freely in relics and tombs.

Because he has been to too many unknown tombs, he is regarded as a "tomb robber" by Qi Duo.

For Qi Duo's title...

Hawke has never refuted, and he has no right to refute.

He has indeed been to many relics and tombs, and he has indeed taken things from them.

Although he only took one thing each time and never destroyed any ruins or tombs...

But we cannot deny the fact that he is a "tomb robber".

But if Qi Duo is willing to put aside her prejudice, then with her wisdom, she will definitely be able to see Hawke's personality and character from the ability characteristics of "Rat Treasure".

A person who is willing to use harsh restrictions in exchange for the ability to move freely in the ruins and tombs may also intend not to destroy the ruins and tombs.

The concept of "stop at red lights and go at green lights" has been added to the ability characteristics of "Mind Beast", which can more or less show that the ability user is a person who is willing to abide by the rules and implement principles.

This can also explain-

why Hawke only takes one thing each time he enters the ruins and tombs.

This is his bottom line, which he always adheres to and has never changed.

But even if he only takes one thing, he will not fall to such a poor level.

The problem is-

others who carry mountain springs and wild plants will be affectionately called nature's porters.

But Hawke, every time he moved things out of the ruins or mausoleums, they were basically antiques with "grudges".

These antiques themselves still have value, but they are attached with grudges. If they are sold to ordinary collectors, it is no different from selling misfortune.

If you ask a "grudge remover" to remove the grudges on the antiques...

Let's not talk about whether you can ask him, the antiques and grudges have coexisted for too long and have become one and the same.

In other words, if the grudges are removed, the antiques will also be destroyed.

Despite this, Hawke still enjoys it.

Every time he takes great pains to find a new ruin or mausoleum, he always takes out an antique with grudges as a souvenir.

From this perspective, he is indeed a diligent porter in the world of grudges.

However, it was also because of this action that he was able to meet Elena, a "grudge remover" later.

And the fate of those antiques with grudges that he brought out later is self-evident.

Besides, since Moyu was born, Hawke has never been to ruins or tombs again because of regret.

All I can say is -

Some people are poor for a reason.

Qiduo and Moyu didn't know the inside story.

So Qiduo couldn't understand Hawke's ridiculous behavior of taking coins from the wishing well, while Moyu didn't care how much property he could inherit from Hawke, but just wondered how a top tomb robber in the hunter world could get to this point.

As for the mind exorcist invited by Qiduo...

"Qiduo, I didn't collect the deposit first because of your face. Now, it's hard for me not to doubt that this employer may not have the ability to pay the remuneration."

The bamboo-pole man mind exorcist had a zombie face without any emotion, and his eyes were mixed with doubt when he looked at Hawke.

A pile of coins in the wishing well?

What a joke.

The remuneration he received for the mind exorcism work was in the hundreds of millions.

Not to mention the work involving "afterlife thoughts"...

You know, there are only a very small number of Nen users in the world who can use "mind removal", and there are no more than ten Nen users who can remove "afterlife thoughts".

If it weren't for Qiduo asking him, he swore that he would never have any work intersection with Hawke, who wanted to use the coins in the wishing pool to make up his reward.

"Mr. Arisel."

Qido withdrew his gaze from Hawke very helplessly, and turned to look at the bamboo-thin male mind removal master beside him, and said sincerely: "Please don't worry about the remuneration. We can pay you the deposit for the mind removal work now, and we can also sign the contract on the spot."

"I have no objection."

Arisel looked at Qiduo, who was a two-star professional hunter, and tried to squeeze a smile on his gray and thin face, but the result was obviously unsatisfactory.

The difficulty in facial expression management and the skinny body may be the side effects of his long-term mind removal work.

Qiduo motioned for Arisel to wait, then walked to Hawke.

"Deposit."

"Uh, how much is the deposit?"

"100 million."

"Oh, that's no problem, it's just the subsequent remuneration... Qiduo, can you give an approximate estimate?"

Hawke took out his mobile phone and asked in a low voice.

Qiduo frowned slightly and said coldly: "The remuneration is determined based on the strength of the mind-eliminating power. With the strength of the "Libra", it's not surprising that it starts at 1 billion."

"..."

Hawke was speechless.

Seeing Hawke's reaction at this moment, Qiduo was not surprised.

She had never expected Hawke to be able to pay for the remuneration from the beginning, and she was mentally prepared to pay all her wealth, but...

"Problems that can be solved with money are not problems at all. I don't have any expectations on whether Mr. Arisel can remove the afterlife thoughts on the Libra, but as long as he can remove the cost imposed on you by the Libra, it can be regarded as eradicating the threat, provided that... Mr. Arisel can do it."

"..."

Listening to Qiduo's words, Hawke's face gradually became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "How much is the bank account? I will transfer the deposit first."

Qiduo nodded, reported Arisel's bank account, and then temporarily wrote a contract.

The money arrived and the contract was signed.

The whole process was very efficient.

Moyou watched from the sidelines and never said a word.

As Qiduo said, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

If this bamboo-skinned man can successfully remove the "price" from Hawke, then Moyu will definitely not use the only one time he can remove the thought.

This is equivalent to a one-time "purification" skill, which is very precious.

"So, where is the 'object' I need to remove?"

After confirming that the deposit has been received, Arisel glanced in the direction of the hall. He could feel the fluctuations of the thoughts of afterlife in the hall, but he was not naive enough to think that Qiduo asked him to come here to remove these weak thoughts of afterlife.

Qiduo looked at Hawke.

Facing Qiduo's gaze, Hawke hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Arisel, can you please prepare for the 'removal of thoughts' first."

"..."

Arisel had no expression on his face.

Ignorant guy, the most difficult problem in the work of removing thoughts is not preparation, but how to "digest"...

But he didn't say anything nonsense.

"The appetite of anorexics"

Arisel was surging with telekinesis.

Everyone present looked at Arisel, only to see his mouth shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye...
