===========
In a criss-crossed canyon.
"You bastards..."
The candidate tied to the rock gnashed his teeth, "You are breaking the rules! I will appeal to the Hunter Association!"
He opened his eyes wide and glared at the trio in front of him.
"If you lose, you lose. Don't look like a loser and howl like a loser."
The eldest of the three brothers, Amori, slapped the red card on the candidate's face.
"The rules don't say that ghost hunters and ghosts can't work together~"
The middle child, Imori, crossed his arms and looked proud.
"That's right~!"
The younger brother, Umori, nodded repeatedly, "We are just making reasonable use of the rules!!"
Among the three brothers, the eldest brother, Amori, and the youngest, Umori, drew red cards to catch ghosts.
The middle child, Imori, drew a white card to be a ghost.
He first mixed with the group of ghosts and entered the park half an hour earlier.
Then, he followed some candidates silently to find out their approximate location.
After the ghost-hunter candidates come in, he meets up with his other two brothers.
He act as a guide to help his two brothers find other ghosts, and then he will be protected by his two brothers to prevent himself from being caught.
Judging from the current results, the three brothers' approach is not bad.
"This is already catching a ghost."
The eldest brother, Amori, who has passed the test, is very satisfied, "Okay, let's go find the second ghost next!"
"The rules don't say that you need to leave the park immediately after catching a ghost."
He won't leave just like that; he also has to help his youngest brother catch another ghost and, at the same time, help his other brother not be caught by others.
Anyway, the time limit is 12 o'clock tonight; there is still time!
After a short rest, the three brothers, led by Imori, went to the next ghost hiding place.
On the other side of the small hill, there is a dark cliff cave that can be passed by one person.
No matter how you look at this cliff cave, it looks like a place suitable for ghosts to hide.
No, it's not like it's true that there are candidates hiding in here.
But every ghost hunter candidate who passed by here just looked over here and then left immediately.
There is no other reason; there are many poisonous snakes everywhere at the entrance of this cave.
It stared at everyone with their scarlet vertical pupils while hissing and spitting out their tongues…
Then, they coldly pursued every guy who wanted to peek into the cave.
The snake charmer Bourbon, everyone knows which candidate is hiding in here.
But facing the hole that can only be passed by one person, no one knows what kind of poisonous snakes will be waiting for them inside.
This is obviously an extremely dangerous terrain environment, and they will not choose to gamble their lives on it.
There are also 31 others.
Excluding Hisoka, there are still 30 ghost candidates, enough for them to capture.
With this idea in mind, in this park, one ghost hunter candidate after another is searching.
And those candidates who acted like ghosts were also hiding.
Time passed by minute by minute, in the blink of an eye.
The starry night enveloped the sky, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.
Dusk fell, and everything was silent.
In the garden at the entrance, the dancing butterflies were also sleeping under the flowers.
"It's time to leave~"
Hisoka, who had been sitting here for a while, got up and walked slowly towards the entrance.
He spent this whole round of tests very quietly, and no one came to disturb him.
This also made him a little bored.
"It would be nice if we could have some fun."
Lan's figure appeared in his mind again and then quickly disappeared.
Before he got some information about Lan, he would not act rashly.
As for the other people in this Hunter Exam, there were no other Nen users.
This also made Hisoka a little disappointed.
He originally thought that there were some powerful characters among the guys who came to participate in the Hunter Exam.
Well, it's not that there are none; both he and Lan are considered one.
So, can he only focus on the examiner?
The second round examiner was not bad, but he vented his bloodlust in the Ralfa Forest.
After coming out, he no longer had the interest to take action.
As for the examiner of this third round, Hisoka looked at the faintly swaying figure of the petite examiner at the entrance and couldn't help but sigh.
"Twenty-five points, no desire to take action at all."
Not all examiners are strong.
At this time, there were many hidden figures in the park.
After seeing Hisoka get up and leave, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
They were afraid that Hisoka would block the door at the last moment and kill them all.
In view of what happened the night before, they felt that Hisoka was likely to do such a thing.
But fortunately, Hisoka is still normal now, and nothing happened.
A group of people followed behind and walked out of Loras Park one after another.
"It's finally over."
Including Tonpa, who was relieved; the three brothers of Amori, who were in good condition; the snake charmer Bourbon, who was not disturbed; Sommy, who used monkeys to warn; and Ponzu, who used bees to stick cards on the candidates.
"A total of 28 people, right?"
After counting the number of people, Cutie Beauty turned around in a circle with satisfaction.
"This number is enough to support the fourth round of exams, and my work is done!"
After saying that, she ignored the remaining qualified candidates.
Under the astonished eyes of the crowd, she took the lead and ran into the airship that had just landed.
It seemed that she didn't want to stay here for a second longer.
It was very much like a worker who got off work on time and completed her work.
Fortunately, she said before the test that the next step for qualified candidates was to board the airship, and then it would take them to the next location.
Everyone was silent for a while and then followed to board the airship.
This year's Hunter Exam time was very fast, or it could be said that it was very neat and tidy.
Three rounds of tests were completed in two days.
And more than 300 people were eliminated in one go.
From nearly 400 people at the beginning, the current 28 people were screened.
The elimination ratio of more than 10 to 1 in three rounds of the exam was really amazing.
However, this is the danger of the Hunter Exam.
Until the last moment, no one can say whether they can get out of it unscathed or whether they can save their lives.
This statement is not only for the candidates but also for the examiners.
No one knows what kind of monsters will appear in the Hunter Exam every year.
However, with more than 200 tests, many examiners seem to have gradually forgotten this reminder.
In the Hunter Association's airship, in a room dedicated to an examiner.
"Is this the list and information of candidates who entered the fourth round of exam this year?"
A tall man dressed in wild animal fur and woolen pants, like a hunter in the wild, sat at the table and flipped through the information on the table casually.
"Three brothers? Snake charmer? Monkey charmer?"
Looking at the names and information one after another, a trace of disdain flashed in the man's eyes.
Until a special list of candidates came into his sight...
"Huh?! Murderer?"
