Although Meteor Street advocates the law of the jungle and hosts many strong individuals, the stronger a person is, the more flexible their mind tends to be, allowing them to survive smoothly and live longer.

So, although Ron can increase his strength every time he works with corpses, the extent of this enhancement has nearly reached its peak. The corpses of truly strong individuals are very rare. Like the two corpses from which Ron extracted the basic palm skill book last night, such finds have been scarce over the past few months of his work.

The corpses Ron handles rarely belong to powerful individuals, so the likelihood of discovering valuable items is naturally very low. Generally, they consist of third-class items and skills. A martial arts skill book, especially a blue leather one, is considered a treasure.

There are so few good finds because, apart from the strong who know how to survive and avoid danger, many powerful individuals have found other ways out. The primary route, as Ron mentioned, is to leave Meteor Street.

Powerful individuals are often proud and ambitious. They aspire to explore the world and are unwilling to remain confined to Meteor Street. For example, members of the Phantom Troupe, like Chrollo and Uvogin, quietly left Meteor Street.

Although Meteor Street is a landfill, leaving it is relatively easy. Ten years before the events of Hunter X Hunter unfold, a certain country suspected a homeless man without an ID of murder and arrested him. Upon checking his identity, they found he had no nationality and no proof of social existence; he claimed to be a resident of Meteor Street. This homeless man, an ordinary individual, managed to walk out of Meteor Street and reach a foreign country, demonstrating how easy it is to leave Meteor Street.

Of course, those who leave quietly and alone, due to lack of social proof and identity issues, often become fugitives or vagrants. Meanwhile, strong individuals seeking a legitimate path often leave through the Meteor Street Council of Elders by being hired by underworld families. These families provide them with identification, and in return, they provide strength as enforcers, benefiting both parties.

Even a family of assassins like the Zoldyck family finds members and staff from Meteor Street. Whether it's Killua's mother, Kikyo, the housekeeper Wisteria, or the trainee housekeeper Canary, they all hail from Meteor Street.

Therefore, the truly strong have mostly left Meteor Street through various means. Besides the elders' confidants, the power that maintains their rule over Meteor Street, the most formidable force on the surface is just like Lucas, possessing only the basic Nen of opening Aura Nodes.

Just like those corpses dealt with last night, among the 172 corpses, only one belonged to a junior Nen practitioner. A Nen user as powerful as Shizuku is quite rare on Meteor Street.

Nen practice is somewhat idealistic, and Shizuku is mostly indifferent to everything. To put it kindly, she is innocent and cute; to put it bluntly, she is indifferent. Her state of mind, free from desires, aligns with Ron's previous Taoist thinking, possibly explaining why Shizuku possesses such formidable strength at a young age.

It was also because she lacked desires that she didn't venture into the outside world like other strong individuals and instead stayed quietly in Meteor Street. If Chrollo and Franklin hadn't come to Meteor Street to fill the vacancy of the No. 8 Spider and invited her to join the Phantom Troupe, she might have remained an unknown recluse on Meteor Street.

"So I want to leave here, find a place where I can grow stronger, and explore the beauty of this world," Ron said, with a touch of longing in his eyes.

"That's it~"

Shizuku looked at Ron with big, blinking eyes. "Let's go then."

Although she is cute, she is not mindless and has her independent thoughts. Seeing Ron's yearning for the outside world, she thought for two seconds and agreed.

Whether staying here or venturing outside, it seemed no different to her~

Well, her thinking is that simple, and coupled with her memory, the term "fierce and brainless" really suits her well.

"Then when shall we leave?"

"It's better to act today than to wait for another day; let's leave today~"

"Today? Okay, let's go now."

...

Their home was very simple, with nothing valuable to take. Additionally, Ron is a man of action, so after a bit of tidying up, he led Shizuku toward the outskirts of Meteor Street.

Meteor Street's layout is a cross, with four wide and straight streets, each serving as a main street, dividing the area into four quadrants. Each quadrant is further divided into smaller areas. Ron and Shizuku's home is in the northern part of the eastern quadrant, very close to the edge.

Therefore, after traveling for less than half an hour and crossing the garbage landfill, the two of them had already seen the endless desert outside the town, which marked the outside world.

Are you finally leaving? As soon as you leave this desert, a whole new world awaits.
