"Oh ho ho ho! Seeing you so spirited puts my mind at ease."

Accompanied by his distinctive laugh, an old man with a high ponytail and traditional martial arts attire walked into the ward.

Clearly, he was none other than Isaac Netero, the most powerful Nen user in the Hunter world, a monster who had lived for over a century and still maintained formidable combat prowess.

The old man first glanced at Roubus, who had already gotten up from the floor and was in a highly alert stance. He then slowly took out a card with two X letter patterns from his pocket and handed it directly to Allen.

"After deliberation by all the examiners and observation of your performance in the test, it has been unanimously decided to approve you as the sole qualified candidate of the 286th Hunter Exam. Here, this is your Hunter License."

"Hunter License? For me? A failure?" Allen stared at the card placed right in front of him, his face showing a puzzled expression.

During his days in the hospital, he had already roughly sorted through the memories of the original owner of this body and understood why he would encounter the pervert, Hisoka, right after crossing over.

The answer was simple!

The original owner of the body had participated in the 286th Hunter Exam and just happened to encounter Hisoka's explosive killing intent, directly injuring the examiner and starting a massacre of all the candidates. Very unfortunately, he was killed on the spot by a playing card piercing his heart, and his soul was taken over by Allen.

Incidentally, the 287th Hunter Exam next year would be the turn for Gon, Killua, Kurapika, and Leorio to make their official debut.

"Ho ho ho ho! The Hunter Exam isn't simply judged by success or failure, but by your potential. In my view, being able to injure Hisoka in that situation is already a sign of great talent. So don't be too hard on yourself; I believe you will become an excellent Hunter. Take it, this will be the beginning of your new life."

Saying this, President Netero pushed the Hunter License forward again, his eyes revealing unmasked admiration.

He had already seen the battle through the surveillance cameras and was very clear about how difficult it was to temporarily suppress, let alone injure, a battle-hardened madman like Hisoka without knowing Nen.

Especially in the face of overwhelming killing intent and severe injuries on the brink of death, this young man showed no fear whatsoever and fought with all his might until the very end.

Such a strong will, once he learns Nen, would undoubtedly grow into a master in no time.

Staring at the card right in front of him, Allen did not immediately reach out to take it but fell into a silent contemplation.

What does a Hunter License mean?

As someone who had watched the anime, he was very clear about it!

With this small card, not only could he enter 90% of the countries and 75% of the restricted areas that ordinary people could not enter, but he could also use 95% of public facilities for free, access professional Hunter websites to look up information, and use it as collateral for loans, which could be sold for a large sum of money, enough to live comfortably for several lifetimes.

Most importantly!

In most cases, only after obtaining the Hunter License would one begin the final trial of a Hunter, which is learning Nen.

Otherwise, most ordinary people, even 80% of the wealthy and government officials, would not know about the existence of Nen.

However, the problem was that Allen did not want to pass the Hunter Exam as a failure.

In his view, unless he could defeat Hisoka in the Hunter Exam, even if he got the license, he would still feel extremely uncomfortable, as if he had swallowed a fly, and even consider it a symbol of shame.

After much internal deliberation and struggle, he finally slowly opened his eyes and said to the old man standing beside the hospital bed, "I'm sorry, President, please allow me to refuse."

"Oh? Refuse! Why?" Netero asked with a smile.

"Because this is not what I want! Don't worry, my refusal is not because I don't want to become a Hunter. On the contrary, I believe I am not yet worthy of passing the exam. Please give me a year, and I will return here next year." Allen answered solemnly.

"Ho ho ho ho! I see! Alright, I understand. I wish you a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing you next year."

Netero smiled, took back the Hunter License, and turned to leave with Mr. Bean, without any hesitation.

Listening to the gradually fading footsteps, Allen immediately jumped out of the hospital bed, his movements and agility not at all like those of a critically injured patient.

He first carefully checked the surroundings, then glanced at his watch to confirm that no one would disturb him for a few hours. Only then did he draw the curtains, lock the door, and place his hand on the head of the wolf king Roubus, muttering, "Teleport."

Instantly!

A white light flashed, and the man and the wolf disappeared from the ward without a trace.

The next second...

They appeared in an ancient and massive ruin, filled with giant statues and stone pillars. In the corridors on both sides, numerous stone gargoyles could be seen wandering around.

All players from the 60s could immediately recognize this as the classic level 45 dungeon—Uldaman, which revealed a lot about the relationship between the Titans and their creations, the Earthen and the Dwarves.

Of course, Allen was already well-versed in this history of Azeroth. He immediately placed his hand on his chest to make the Hunter panel's equipment appear, to prevent his bandages from getting dirty, which would be hard to explain to the doctors.

After doing all this, he immediately threw an ice trap on the ground and gave the attack command to the wolf king Roubus: "Go! Tear them apart!"

"Awoooooo!"

After a piercing howl, the silver giant wolf shot out, pouncing on the nearest stone gargoyle shaman and tearing it apart on the ground, the scene was extremely bloody and cruel.

But Allen was clearly used to it, raising his hand without hesitation to cast a Hunter's Mark.

Multi-Shot, Serpent Sting, and Arcane Shot followed closely!

With the absolute level advantage and the reckless expenditure of mana, it didn't take long for the two elite stone gargoyles to fall to the ground, turning into experience, money, cloth, potions, and other loot.

It was clear that he was earning experience and some items that could only be obtained in the game.

As for why he didn't go out to do quests, it was because he could only stay in the dungeon. Once he touched the vortex-shaped door at the entrance of the dungeon, he would be immediately teleported back to the ward.

This was the conclusion Allen had reached after repeated testing.

The severe injuries that would have killed an ordinary person several times had already been fully healed with the help of healing potions. The reason he had not yet left the hospital was mainly to avoid drawing attention, at least for a month.

Otherwise, with such a rapid recovery, it would definitely reach the ears of the Hunter Association and might even cause unnecessary trouble.
