Chapter 147 I Want To Go With Master!

The Hunter Association's actions this time have two main purposes.

The first is to capture Davidson, and the second is to deal with the Seirin Group.

However, the content of the text message sent by Cheadle can be roughly understood as:

"The Hunter Association fell into an ambush set by the Seirin Group. Despite suffering minimal losses, they managed to achieve victory, but they failed to capture Davison."

Even though they emerged victorious in the battle, the failure to capture Davison meant the mission was unsuccessful.

The message sent by Cheadle wasn't a detailed report, and it is mainly to inform Moses of the result.

'It actually failed…'

Moses frowned.

Based on the limited information revealed in Cheadle's message, Moses could deduce some aspects of the process.

Seirin Group must have learned about the Hunter Association's actions through some way.

With the initiative in their hands, they took advantage of the situation and used Davidson as bait, setting a trap for the Hunter Association to fall into.

The Hunter Association, which was relatively passive in terms of situation, inevitably walked into the Seirin Group's ambush.

Despite this, the ambushed Hunter Association still managed to defeat the Seirin Group.

Cheadle did not describe the entire encounter, but Moses felt that Netero probably single-handedly dominated the entire battlefield.

The destructive power of 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva…

It not only displayed formidable suppression in one-on-one combat, but also exhibited terrifying area-of-effect damage in group battles.

With such a terrifying old man overseeing the battlefield, Moses could not imagine the possibility of the Hunter Association losing.

Even if Seirin Group had rule-based Nen Abilities leaning towards one-hit kills...

With the Zodiac Twelve's members present, they wouldn't give the Seirin Group an opportunity to exploit any weaknesses.

With such a high fault tolerance rate, Netero can completely sweep the battlefield wantonly.

Moses just imagined the battlefield situation from the perspective of the Seirin Group, and intuitively felt the suffocating despair.

But the problem is—

Although Hunter Association managed to severely crippled the Seirin Group, they still failed to capture Davidson, the most crucial target in this operation.

Why did it happen?

It is not possible to rule out the possibility that the Seirin Group has Nen Abilities similar to Knov's 'Hide and Seek'. That's why the Hunter Association failed to capture Davidson after their victory.

Moses can only predict from this aspect.

'If I want to know more clearly, I can only ask Cheadle to explain the entire action process in detail...'

Moses looked down at Cheadle's name in his contact, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided against further questioning.

'If we want to completely eliminate the Swamp Man ability, then capturing Davidson is necessary.'

'Since this operation failed, the Hunter Association will probably launch a second operation soon.'

'Well, let's cross the Mount Ankada first.'

Moses put away his phone and casually kicked the bodies of the three prisoners into a nearby low shrubbery.

The reason why he didn't let the shadow clone come out to harvest these three Swamp People prisoners is because the current shadow clone had already reached its absorption limit.

That was three days ago.

However, even if the shadow clone can no longer increase its strength by absorbing the Swamp People, Moses had no intention of leaving the Mount Ankada just yet.

Because…

For Moses, taking the initiative to hunt down the prisoners from Fox River Prison is no longer just to increase the strength of the shadow clone.

In the past three days, with the help of Menchi, he continued to search for the prisoners who escaped from Fox River Prison by following various traces left by humans.

A few minutes ago, with his ability to sense the presence of the Swamp People, Moses discovered three Swamp People trapped in spider silk cocoons.

Seeing that the three Swamp People were already close to death, Moses was ready to turn and leave. However, the moment he turned around, he was attacked by a black spider that leaped down from the tree.

With no choice but to kill the spider, he proceeded to finish off the three Swamp People prisoners trapped in the spider silk cocoons.

Menchi is dissecting a black spider and taking out the edible parts.

She glanced at the corpse that Moses had kicked into the shrubbery, but showed no reaction. Instead, she focused on taking out snowy white and crystal-clear meat from the black spider's bamboo-like limbs.

Compared to the huge size of the black spider, the amount of meat obtained from its limbs wasn't much.

However, with ample food resources now, there was no need to take out too much from the black spider, and taking the essential parts would suffice.

As for the other edible parts of the black spider, she will just let it return to nature.

Menchi worked quickly and soon extracted all the edible parts from the arachnid's limbs.

Moses observed from the side.

He felt that Menchi is indeed worthy of being the youngest Single-Star Gourmet Hunter in the original work. She already has such rich experience in wild exploration and a huge amount of professional survival knowledge at the age of fifteen.

Not to mention her understanding of various ingredients and their processing methods.

If Menchi had not accompanied him on this trip, Moses wouldn't have ended up like those three Swamp People prisoners who turned into black spider's reserve rations, but he would probably have encountered various troublesome situations.

It can be said that in uninhabited areas like Mount Ankada, it was precisely thanks to Menchi's professional skills that Moses could travel so smoothly and successfully pursue the group of prisoners attempting to cross Mount Ankada.

Most importantly, he learned a lot of experience and knowledge points through Menchi's various demonstrations.

After a week of being together, Moses was always generous with his praise for Menchi.

Menchi, feeling a bit embarrassed, looked away and took out one of the snowy white and tender limb meats, and then said: "The arthropod meat of the Door-Plate Spider is more suitable for eating raw, so that it can retain the most perfect taste."

"Should we add seasoning on it?"

Moses took the snow-white arthropod meat handed over by Menchi.

The advantage of traveling with a Gourmet Hunter is that you can eat good food anytime and anywhere.

"It already has its own sweet and fresh taste. Master, you can try a bite first. If you find it bland, I will help you add some seasoning."

While saying this, Menchi systematically stored the removed arthropod meat into her bag.

In uninhabited wilderness areas, food is as important as water. Regardless of the load, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient food supply at all times.

"Alright."

Moses took a bite of the arthropod meat. The meat was as tender as egg tofu. After just two chews, a sweet and refreshing taste spread over his tongue like spring water.

'So delicious.'

Moses nodded towards Menchi, indicating that it was delicious.

Menchi smiled happily when she saw this.

This is the meaning of the existence of Gourmet Hunters.

Moses quickly finished the entire arthropod meat and looked around at the dark surroundings.

The bodies of the Door-Plate Spider and the three Swamp Men prisoners attracted many prying eyes. It was obvious that they could no longer stay in this place.

"Menchi, you should take the Hunter Exam this year."

"What about you, Master?"

"Well…"

Moses pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "I will go too, after all, the Hunter License is very practical."

"Then, I want to go with Master!"

Menchi's eyes lit up.
