Chapter Twenty Two

  Small little …carrot potato…

  You were so frightened by this thunder-like nickname, your brain froze for three or four seconds before you recovered. 

  I don't know if Pariston (or the system) noticed it because of your face full of poop. The vice president looked at you with concern and asked softly, "What's wrong? Little Carrot Potato?"

  "It's nothing, I'm here to report the mission...and please don't call me that again, thank you..."

  "What's the matter? I think it's a proof that people have become closer to each other. Don't mind too much, little carrot potato." The vice president patted you on the shoulder with a smile, and then got down to business: "Then the results of your investigation How? Tell me what you saw.

  No way, you can only helplessly tell Pariston what you saw.

  Pariston fell into deep thought after hearing the words.

  "That's it, then I'll write a summary report and report it to the Hunter Association."

  "Huh? Don't you need to confirm it yourself?"

  Even if it is the system setting, you are still very surprised by the actions of the vice president, and just believe what a strange candidate said. Is this really okay?

  Calm down, carrot and potato! This is just a game, nothing is impossible! Sure enough, the vice president scratched his head, and said with a natural smile, "No need, is the little carrot potato lying to me?"

  "That's not..."

  "That's all right." The vice president smiled like a crescent moon, and he opened his arms, showing a happy look: "Anyway, as long as the investigation results are reported, the rest will not care about my business."

  ...Hey, is this person really okay?

  You always feel that this is out of the category of irresponsibility. It is really worth exploring whether the system is lazy or this person's personality is just like this. However, after Pariston gave you the reward for completing the task, you decided not to care about it. Those are gone.

  There are actually 50,000 coins... What a big deal, I think you only lost 3,000 yuan for a Hisoka back then, the vice president is too rich. In addition, I also got a huge mace, which the survey showed was a weapon with good attributes, attack +98, agility -10, hit +5.

  Although your arm strength increases after upgrading, you don't think the mace is heavy, but you still feel that this thing is no better than a rake. Obviously your profession is a swordsman, but the system keeps assigning you a mess of weird weapons...

  After receiving the task reward, I suddenly heard the system notification sound ding ding dong dong again, "Pariston's favorability +15". You were taken aback for a moment, you didn't expect that completing the task could increase your favorability, and you were suddenly a little surprised. But what is the use of goodwill? Is it possible to develop a relationship with a character after a good impression is high?

  ...Probably not, even Dongba has a setting of favorability.

  Assuming for a moment that Dongba and yourself have become a special relationship, you can't help but feel a chill and force yourself to erase these images from your mind. I opened the status bar and looked at the time, and found that several hours had passed. I thought that many candidates must have come down from the tower. So you planned to go back and have a look first, when Pariston suddenly stopped you, and very enthusiastically took out a new business card from the pocket of the purple plaid suit and handed it to you.

  "By the way, please accept this, this is my contact information."

  You took the business card in doubt, and found Pariston's contact address and port number printed on it, and the system automatically set him as the contact person. Out of politeness, you were about to tell him your contact information, but you suddenly remembered... you don't have any contact information at all.

  It seems that in the original book, Gon and Killua only bought mobile phones at a later stage...

  "but I..."

  "Then let it be like this, little carrot potato should also be a good hunter, I believe you will pass the test."

  Pariston waved to you with a smile, turned and left. Your worries are superfluous, and he didn't ask you for contact information at all.

  Looking at his leaving back, the phrase "little carrot potato" is still lingering in your mind, echoing for a long time, endlessly.

  You shook your head, slapped yourself hard on the face a few times, and finally drove the terrible echo out of your head.

  ...it was a nightmare.

Hold the mace and head back to the direction of the Jianjing Tower. Before you get out of the forest, you can see a few men in gray suits who are suspected of being staff members standing in front of the gate of the Jianjing Tower. Looking morosely at the gates you've destroyed with your rake, all looking rather distressed.

  Did the system discover what you did again?

  You suddenly felt a little guilty, and subconsciously hid back in the forest. You saw those men in gray suits shaking their heads repeatedly while pointing at the gate of the Jianjing well tower, and at the same time brought wooden planks from nowhere, intending to repair the gate.

  You scream in your heart, they are so efficient, so the gate will be repaired in less than an hour, and then you will be locked out and unable to enter again? It won't happen again... Who knows if they will strengthen the door of the cheap well tower.

 You thought about it, so you gritted your teeth and decided to simply tear down the cowshed, and pretended you didn't know anything and walked up the steps.

  Climb up nearly a hundred steps, and through the destroyed door, you can see that many candidates have gathered in the center of the hall. At this moment, you suddenly remembered what you did to Hisoka before, and you couldn't help feeling a little nervous, so you carefully scanned the crowd. Circle Hisoka's figure, and then find that he has been resurrected, and currently he is just sitting alone in the corner stacking cards, and he doesn't look like he is about to get sick for the time being.

  So you felt relieved, and were about to enter, but found that the door was blocked by those men in gray suits. You turned your body and tried to squeeze in, but failed, so you said: "Can you please make room? I ran out just now, and now I want to go in."

  "Sorry, this place is under maintenance and traffic is temporarily prohibited."

  The man in gray clothes answered your words mechanically, without looking up at you at all, he was concentrating on studying the gate of the cheap well tower that was destroyed by the nail rake.

  You can't help being a little annoyed, but knowing the rigidity of the system, you can only compromise and ask: "How long will it take to fix it?"

  "The remaining homework time is 27 hours, 15 minutes and 37 seconds, please come back after you finish."

  You glanced at the time on the system interface expressionlessly. There are 27 hours, 15 minutes and 36 seconds left until the end of the exam.

  It must be on purpose.

  Your expression didn't change, you didn't make a sound, you directly raised the mace in your hand, and punched the ass of the man in the gray suit who was blocking the way.

  System prompt: Carrot and potato attacked the guards of the Jianjin well tower.

  Taking advantage of this opportunity, you forced your way into the venue on the first floor, but the man in the gray suit who you attacked refused. He jumped up from the ground, angrily picked up a cement shovel and chased you.

  All the examinees stared at you in astonishment. You walked around the venue to dodge the man in the gray suit, hoping to get rid of him, but the other party refused to let him go, and kept yelling, "You bastard! Run! I will not forgive you!"

  You are really speechless about the various settings of this system. Seeing that the other party will never let you go, in desperation, you can only stop and raise your mace to fight him.

  Quickly switching to the combat state, the candidates all consciously give up their positions in the center and deliberately stay away from you.

  You can almost see the flames coming from the head of the man in gray as he shovels menacingly at you with a cement shovel. But it's really too weak. How can this kind of NPC be your opponent after going crazy and leveling? You dodge lightly, then raise your mace and hit his ass knowingly, ending the battle in an instant.

  System prompt: Carrot and Potato defeated the guard of the Jianjin well tower, reputation +5.

  The poor man in the gray suit fell to the ground, but he didn't disappear like the previous NPC candidates. He twitched slightly on the ground, but he seemed unable to get up.

  Strange, no experience and no money... It doesn't seem to be the same as ordinary fighting.

  You hesitated, approached him cautiously, and tried to talk, but only heard him muttering: "I used to be a guard, until I got an arrow in my ASS..."

  ...what and what is this.

  Seeing several other guards repairing the gate on their own, no one came to trouble you, you secretly lamented the indifference of human nature, and stopped talking to the man in gray suit who was beaten down by you for no reason.

  But for some unknown reason, you notice that the rest of the candidates are still staring at you with terrified eyes.

  What's wrong? You haven't done anything outrageous now.

  You frowned and glanced at them, but for some reason, the examinees who caught your eye turned their heads one after another, with disgust written all over their faces.

  ...What the hell are you doing?

  You're feeling a little stressed, and you're guilty of trying to find a seat. But when you turn around suddenly, you find the frustrated panty trainer standing behind you, looking at you sadly.

  The heads of the crowd were lowered.

  You suddenly feel uncomfortable all over, and you have the illusion of "does everyone despise me because of the existence of this guy?"

  ...how could be.

At the same time, Hisoka, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly shook his shoulders a few times and laughed strangely.
